Chas. Paullin last Wednesday effect
ed a trade of his farm (the Lott place.
to Frank Dixie from Bunker Hill, Ills.
Mr.. Paullin received sixty-five acres of
the place. Mr.. Dixie is a practical
farmer and proposes making a stock
ranch out of the place. and will have
his two sons in charge. Mr.. Paullin

Rev. r. +. Chew, secretary of the
| committee that has the rem oval of the
Bellevue Collegiate Institute in charge.
visited Ironton last week and talked
with our people on the subject. Mr.
Chew seemed to think that Arcadia
Valley was the place. for the school,
and said that if the proper exertion is
made the institution would be located
here. Mr.. Chew will address the peo-
pie on the subject later.
A gentleman by the name of jack
son from St. Louis was down here with
his wife and son last Thursday, on the
lookout for home. Mr.. and Mrs.
jackson are advanced in years and de-
sire to spend the remainder of their
days in the country; they did not make
a purchase, but looked at several pieces
of property and may buy later on.
They are people of means and culture,
and would be desirable acquisitions to
the Valley population.
There never was time when the
business that it is at present. In fact,
there is just more freight than can be
handled and the yards at Piedmont are
blocked every day. On Wednesday of
last week there were seven more trains
on the road and 1870 more cars moved |
than on the same day last year; at the
same time there were 175 cars in Pied |
mont yards that could not be reached |
at all. This is a gratifying state of at |
affairs and we trust it may continue.
The railroad and the roadoverseer at |
Annapolis are about to get into
squabble over some crossings. The
county has lately built some new roads
that cross the railroad; the court has
ordered the Overseer to put in the
crossings, and the Company have mott
fled their section foreman to resist any
such attempts. The company in the
meantime have been legally notified to
construct the crossings themselves, but
stoutly refuse to do so. What will be
the final outcome can hardly yet be
told, but the matter will probably be
taken to the courts.
Henry Arisman and wife and Dan
Philips and wife occupy the same
house in the north end of town. For
awhile their relations were of the
nature and the two families
dwelled together in peace and unity.
But this happy state of affairs did not
last for long. On last Friday the two
got into a war of words which
in war of blows, with
Mrs. Philips coming out badly worst
ed. Then Philips took a hand and
badly worsted Mrs. Arisman. In ad-
dition to this Philips came down town
and swOre out a warrant against Mrs.
Arisman charging her with assault.
She pleaded guilty and was fined 81 and
costs. Then Mrs. Arisman went before
the Justice and swore out warrant
against Philips for assault, but being
unable to give security for costs there
was no prosecutions.
