MIR STRAIGHT-S UNFORTUNATE LOSS.
 Marshall Straight met with quite loss, last week, by losing one of his valuable horses, one of a span. MT Straight val ued the horse, we are told, above $50. It seems that he turned the span out to- gether that morning into the pasture and one kicked the other and broke it's leg and in trying to get along it fell and roll ed over into a barbed wire fence and was so badly injured that it had to be shot.

MRS HAYNES SERIOUS FALL

Mrs B. J. Haynes met with serious fall, last Saturday, while descending the stairs from the chambers of her home here. So serious was the fall that Dr Marcy was immediately called to dress and close the long gash made in her head by the accident. COncussion of the brain was somewhat feared, but by present symptions it is hoped she will speedily recover without serious re- suits. Being heavy in weight the shock to her nervous system was great and but for the timely discovery of her condition by Mrs Charles Hoffman, who lives in another part of the same house, the loss of blood would have been much greater.

THINGS WISE AND UNWISE.

A number of the members of the grange attended the "Pomona" at Litch- field on Wednesday last and report time 1.-two awfully sweet for anything." The local grange has extended the space between it's meetings to a month during the busy season, instead of holding them fortnightly, weekly, or semi weekly as in the winter. The slumber of the Rip Van Wrinkle of the neighborhood will be less frequently disturbed by the stamping and roaring of the goat second only to those of the fabled chimera, while the gamins will miss the shadow pictures and flash lights which have so delighted them. At the risk of decap- itation we would humbly suggest that when the august body has said it's say on the best way of making roads and happy homes, of raising bread and potatoes, it turn the torrent of discus sion towards the disposal of the car cases of defunct animals. Even a few shovels full of earth or a spoonful or two of lime would be better than leav- ing them rocking under the hot sun,
 while the oders of white azalias and new mown hay might be more "fetching" to cur summer guests than the spicy b-eezes which are waited over some parts of our town, causing even the staidest and most merciful Of us all to ply the whip as we drive by.

ASH GROVE CHANGES HANDS.

We have been reminded of our failure Go mention in the columns of TIE BEE the recent sale of the late George C. Hitchcock's residence, formerly known as Ash Grove" and which has been known for many years as the most beau tiful residence and grounds in Kent Hol- low. The late Mir Hitchcock expended thousands of dollars on the lawns, mead ows and pasture lots and buildings. The barns were fitted up for the occupant cy of 100 or more horses, which for years he kept there, winter and summer, and no more productive farm for grass or grain could be found about for miles in this vicinity. After MT Hitchcock's death part of the farm was sold to Messrs
 Hickox, Humphrey and Clark and they
 have used it successfully for years as pasturage for stock cattle. The balance of the real estate, including the residence, tenant cottage, barns and square plot
 of land of about 100 acres, surrounded by
 highways easy of access to and from in
 several directions, fell in the hands of G..
 Wheeler Gum, an uncle of MT Hitch cocks living in Western New York. As
 MT Gum, by advancing years and infirm- ities became incapaeitated for business, the place became his wife's and by her deeease last year, again it came on the market for disposal. K. Gustaveson of New York City, y,who is an extensive con- tractor in the section of the city where he resides, has leased the property during the past two years, and during the past year his family have made it their permanent home. Mir Gustaveson has been here as much as his business would allow. Naturally therefore they have became much attached to the place and when offered for sale, Mir Gustaveson, like the business man he is, "took time by the forelock' and was the first to of fer and was fortunate in having the time limited too short date ahead, for all other competitors, that before some who pretended to want to buy, had looked over the premises sufficiently to offer, the bargain was closed and the entire place became by deed MT Gustaveson's at what Ia considered a most reasonable price. We congratulate MT Gustayeson most heartily on his purchase and supposed till last week that we had mentioned in print the above occurrence. There ia much of the farm being titled the present year for tobacco and grain. We are informed that MT Gustaveson intends to expend considerable sum of money on the house and barn in the near future. By the ravages of time some of the barns, through neglect and disuse, ,have became so dilapidated as to demand remodeling. But before MrGustavesoni is satisfied with the conveniences and appearance of the place and grounds we venture to predict that he will have the most beautiful house and barns and farm to be seen or found in that or many other localities. His wife is also well fitted to arrange and conduct SO spacious residence as that ia. and with the aid of her daughters, they have already in the interior during the past two years made all the rooms most attractive, pleasing and comforta- ble, and given to all towards whom they entertained friendly regards most cor. dial welcome. May their stay among us be long and pleasant, and now that MT
