Mr.. Wesley Alabaugh has been lying
very low with erysipelas of the face, but
is getting better now under the care of
DIR. Barber.
Mrs. DR.. Barber has so nearly recover
ed from her late illness as to be able to
return home from Pleasantville.
John Littlefield is laid up with a re-
lapse of the gripp which has turned into
neuralgia and sore throat.
On last Tuesday the dwelling house of
A. 81. Downing was discovered on fire.
There was no one about but Mrs. d.
when the fire was first discovered, which
was on the second floor. She soon put
out the fire and thought nothing more of
it until her son George came home, when
she went to show him where the fire had
caught. When they went up stairs they
discovered that the building was on fire
again. With considerable outside assist
ance the flames were extinguished after
having burned one partition and ceiling
boards in two rooms, and destroying a
lot of bed clothes and carpets. A few
days work made the building look as
we'll as ever.
About 10 o'clock Saturday night fire
alarm was rung by the fireman at the
tannery. The blowing of the whistle had
the desired effect, for a large number of
the citizens were out to help at the fire,
but twas false alarnl-only large
stump pile on fire in the rear of NJ. An
drews' property.
The first flock Of wild geese of the sea-
son passed over town on Monday after
| noon.
Miss Kate Gillespie of Wing Hill is
visiting relatives in town.
Election is over, the Democrats are sad,
And the Republicans, Oh how glad
One hundred and five arc the votes that
were polled
In Kingsley Twp, so we are told.
For Congress-at-Large Galusha A. Grow
Received fifty-six votes, now that wasn't
slow.
James Denton Hancock thirty-four had
he
Which leaves twenty-five of a majority.
For school director there were four on
list;
j. II. Skunk and C. Zuendel got the
whole grist.
John Berlin and John Burhenn were
left in the shade
And now they're up Salt Creek, so it is
said.
Road Commissioner got two, as will be
seen,
A. Fl. Downing and Jefferson Dean.
81. A. Zuendel and Miller J. c.,
Well, they got left, and now they're up
on Salt Sea.
OverSeer of Poor was Burhenn, Con-,
For his large vote rolled up to seventy
one.
VIM. Tobey, his opponent, twenty-seven
had,
Now that's such large majority it may
make VIM. mad.
Next we find is Collector of taxes,
With ]. NJ. Zuendel to grind his axes.
Well, this he did when he worsted Dick
Flynn,
Who made good fight but was taken in.
Auditor next fell to Hindman, G. s.,
That battle SCARED veteran who got the
big mess.
His popularity was surely shown
When he beat w. A. Kribbs, as sure as
you're born.
Twp. Clerk, the best pie on the floor.
Was won by J. A. Shaw, with vote of
sixty-four.
His majority was double that of his man,
And his man was W. f. Jones, who de-
feat will stand.
The Treasurer came next on tap,
And won by r. @. Heath, that quiet chap.
He was closely followed by Chas. Bauer,
Who takes second base and attends TO his
store.
Judge of election was Rudolph, r.,
Who polled large vote and doubled by
far,
| His rival, who lost the day,
And answers to the name Of Fleming,
TT.
H. e. Lowell, for inspector of election,
Is the right man in the right direction,
And r. j. Flynn-for there are two
That can't be beat no matter what you do.
And last seven Pathmasters we find
Stright Republicans, just the right kind.
Seven were lucky aud seven weren't in
il.
But they didn't work for it, not even a
minute.
