A WONDERFUL STORM.
Rocks OF Hail In which Were Earth, Sand,
Leaves and Fish.

A gentleman connected with Museo Ma
cional (National Museum) at San Jose,
Costa Rica, in a private letter tells a
graphic story OF a wonderful hailstorm

the gate receipts or the spirits OF the
crowd.
There are six races today, the last
one over five hurdles, and the
entries are such as TO make bet

certain.

A Pscuriar csse.

SuMERyILLE, Jan. "a very peculiar
case was tried before Justice of the
Peace D. c. Boyd. Friday evening. On
the morning of Wednesday last E. A.
Reese. a stranger, who gave his occupa-
tion as repaifer of sewing machines,
hired horse and buggy from Green's
livery stable to go out in the county and
do SONS work, saying that he would be
gone for several days. He carried John
Dyer with him as he says for company.
Friday evening Mr.. Dyer brought a
horse and buggy back to Green's and
gave him 50, saying that Reese would
pay the balance when he came back.
Upon examining the horse Mr. Green
found that it was not his horse that had
been brought back, but one very much
like him, being alike in color, blind In
the same eye and very near the same
hight. Mr.. Green went out and found
Mr.. Reese and brought him in and had
him and Dyer arrested for stealing his
horse. Both men claimed before Justice
Boyd that to the best of their knowledge
and belief they brought back the same
horse that they had carried off, but as
it was clearly proven by several wit
nesses that they did not they were
bound over to the Circuit Court in $3.50
bond, neither one being able to give
bail. This morning it was found that
they had merely taken the wrong horse
from the stable the next morning after
staying all night near Danceyville.
