Sharon Items.

The weather is mild and pleasant for the
time of year.
Mr.. Mitchell, our section boss, has a very
sick child.
L. s. Smith was paying forty-three cents
for wheat last week. He bought several hum
dred bushels of Calvin Smart at the above
rate.
Mr.. Latham, our hardware merchant, has
boxed his goods preparatory to removing
them to the Strip. / understand he is about to
sell his building and If he does he will not re-
move it. This leaves Sharon for the present
without any one who deals exclusively in
hardware. j. ID. Fair & Son handle some hard
ware in connection with their dry goods and
coal and lumber business.
"A few days ago Wesley McMurtry received
a severe kick on the side of his face from
horse. He remained indoors two or three days
and took care of his wound. then he went out
on the farm and worked one day to perform
some urgent farm labor. The weather was
quite cold and the next day his wound was
more painful, erysipelas commenced in his
face and for several days his condition has
been such rs to cause his friends some uneasi-
ness. The latest reports are that he is resting
well and thought to be slightly convaIescent
Cornelius Starkey and William Hoyt both
went from this township and located on the
same quarter section in the Strip about
twenty-five miles south from here. Lately
having failed to obtain good water where he
first dug, Mr.. Starkey commenced building on
a part of the claim nearer to Mr.. Hoyt's i'm
provement and few days ago Mr.. Hoyt went
where Starkey was at work to demonstrate
with him, and pugilistic encounter was the
result. Neither party was damaged much in
the fracas and they did not go to law about it.
They are etill determined to contest for the
claim, and there may be more quarreling be-
tween them for 1t is quite doubtful whether
two men living upon and contesting for the
same claim will be able to entertain as kindly
feelings for each other as should exist be-
tween persons who have both had the benent
of christian parentage. The parties are both
here now but will return 10 the Strip soon.
People here are somewhat divided as to who
has the best right TO the claim in dispute.

Gus localities were Indicated by men,

Dearest sister thou hast left US;
