A boy, only 103 years old, died
in Virginia last week from the evil
effects of tobacco He had used the
vile stuff only SO years, when he was
stricken down and died. He was an
orphan, too.
Bro. E X. Smith had the mis-
fortune to break his large press last
week, necessitating the sending of
part of it to the foundry. These are
the little plcasantries that occur
around printing Office to keep the
editor good natured.
The A. O. U. W. Lodge have the
plans made for the new building they
propose to erect, by the side Of their
brick building. The new structure
is to be 24x46, two full stories. The
lower part will be used by the Swed-
ish Mercantile Co., and the upper
part as a banquet hall.
Austin has a aourishing anti.
tobacco society. Their badges bear
the letters T. NJ. S., meaning" Truth,
Manhood and Sobriety." We know
of some people who do not use tobac-
co who are not truthful nor manly.
But of course there are people whom
one never would suspect of being
manly unless they wore a sign.
Papers were served this week,
says the Luverne Herald, in suit
for $4,000 damages for SANDER and
libel The defendant is 4. j. Bon
nett, postmaster at Magnolia, and the
plaintiff is Simon Pokett. Some time
ago some sneak-theif stole hog from
Bonnet and he charged Pokett with
the theft. A search warrant was
sworn out by Bennett and the prem,
ises of Pokett we're thoroughly
searched, with the result that nothing
was found to support Bonnett's sus-
picions. Pokett now comes at his &C
cuser with suit of $4,000 damages,
as above stated, and has employed
E. H. Garfield Esq. to look after his
interests in the suit. In the mean
time the hog and the sneak thief are
still in the dark with little probability
of ever being brought to light.
