the passage of the act are placed on
record that the present owner is
amenable to the debts of the former
owner. The idea of the law is to
compel every real estate owner to
place on public record all property
he may own in order to prevent his
hiding from his creditors his assets.
The law is plain however, and needs
no comment. 1t behooves every
owner of real estate to have his deeds
recorded at once or he may subject
himself to great Inconvenience, ex-
pense and annoyance. Recorder
Shindel will make arrangements to
place on record all deeds left with
him but no time should be lost in
having them placed in his hands.
The NEW MARRIED woMAN's LAW.
This act provides that a married
woman may have the same right and
power as an unmarried person to ac-
quire, use, lease and dispose of prop
erty, but she may not mortgage or
convey her real estate unless her
joins. She may also make
any contract in writing or other
wise which is necessary, appropriate,
or advantageous to the
exercise or enioyments of her rights
of property, but she may not become
accommodation indorser. maker.
guarantor of surety for another.
She may sue and be sued ciyilly, but
she may not sue her husband except
for divorce or to protect or recover
his property when deserted by her,
but she not beaTested for her torts.
In suits between husband and wife
both shall be competent witnesses,
but cannot testify to confidential
communications unless by agree
ment. She may dispose by will of
all her property, but the husbands
right as tenant by courtesy shall not
be affected. The act of June 3, 1887,
and all other inconsistent acts are
by this act, which was ap
proved June S, 1898.

TRONELNILLE.

Last Friday morning as jeremiah
Meyer commonly called Charles,
and who resides on j. G.. Meyers
farm at this place. was watering his
horses Mt creek about twenty rods
west of his barn, an accident hap
pened to him that is hard to explain.
Mr.. Meyer usually left his horses
run loose to the water, and very Of
ten after they had drank, they took
a run up to what is known as the
sand hill" TIC avoid this, Mr..
Meyer took the one that always
took the lead to the water at the
halter. This is Meyers story in his
own. ,w9r2}sa ~ Left the barses, Ill
out except Harry, whom / led to
the creek at the halter. When 1
came to the creek, led him across
the bridge into the creek from the
west side. All the other horses had
finished drinking and started to the
barn, / was standing on the bridge
while the horse drank, and when he
was done drinking, | threw the
chain of the halter over his neck and
left him to follow the other horses
and this is the last | can recollect. y
Now this can not possibly be the real
facts, as the circumstances which
followed will show. When Mr..
Meyer was discovered by one of his
boys, he was down on his hands and
knees about seven steps on the east
side of the bridge all covered with
blood, and the blood still issuing
from his nostrils and one ear. When
the boy asked his father what had
happened, he replied that Harry
had kicked him. The boy ran to
the house and told his mother what
had happened. and when she came
on the scene she found Mr.. Meyer
staggering along the fence which he
used as support, but soon sank
down and could go no further. Mrs.
Meyer called for help, whereupon
Mr.. Meyer said don't holler so,
of which Meyer does not know any
thing about now. James Nj. Mat
tern and James l.. Ocker were call
ed and helped Mr.. Meyer to his
house and into bed where he lay in
stupor for about twenty-three
hours. DR.. Miller was called, and
upon a close examination found that
no bones We're broken. Mr.. Meyer
is very badly cut above the right
eye, and both sides of his head and
face is badly skinned. The skin
from the upper side Of his left hand
is almost entirely torn off. l visited
Mr.. Meyer on Sunday, and thought
him to be a very sick man, but DIR
Miller assured his family that he
will pull through all right. Mr.
Meyer has now recovered his reason
and stoutly denies that he was kick
ed, but does not know what has
happened, Albert Swartz is down
with typhoid fever, Measels are
very preyilent at this place at pres,
ent On Saturday evening our
band was at Laurelton, and ground
out music for festival. Laurelton
evidently knows good thing when
it sees it, as the band was engaged
to come back the third time. Our
farmers are cutting and housing
their grain, regardless of its condi-
tion Pot-pie can now be made of
cherries without much trouble, as
they are now full of meat. CAL. JOE.
