/ Joseph Potter, the well known and jo-
vial follower Of the lamb" has con-
lcludcd TO embark in the matchmaking
and jewelers. business at Condor. With
this end in view he has purchased Bob
Robinson's outfit and will take charge
August lst. Joe says be IL an old-time
jewelcr and we bespeak for him a
healthy business. He has engaged Mr..
Robinson to assist him several weeks.
All our people interested in good
sshool will be glad to learn that the
prospects are good for opening normal
school at Condor this fall with Prof. o.
M. Given Of Indiana as instructor. He
has concluded TO come providing satis-
factory arrangements can be made by
our people. Those wishing to send pu-
pills or learn particulars should apply at
once to L. w. Darling, who has the sub
scription paper. This matter Is too inn
portant TO neglect.
G. II. Crawford, the gambler who had
Myron Hamilton arrested and bound
over TO the grand jury on suspicion Of
having stolen $40 from him while
asleep in the Jordan hotel at Arlington,
found his money few days ago in the
bed where he had put ii himself. The
proper thing TO do In this case Is 10 tax
the costs of prosecution up 70 the prose
cntor, besides fine him the sl40 for his
carelessness. 1t would have tendency
to discourage such cases.
While Misses Birdie and Dora Down
ing we're returning home Friday evening
from Beecher Flat, short distance east
Of town the cart struck rock In the
road, fitting 1t in such manner as to
throw Miss Birdie out and in front Of
the cart, which ran over her. She was
pretty badly hurt, and has been under
the DOCTORS care since. The doctor
thinks she will be able TO begin teaching
again In about month, having been
engaged TO teach the fall term Of the
Mayyille school.
Married, at Condor on Monday, July
%, 1894, Mr.. Albert Collins and Miss
Julia Couture, both of Ferry Canyon.
The ceremony was performed in the
Catholic church Of this place by Father
Busha OF Pendleton, and was Witnessed
by large number Of friends. Misses
Susan Dunn and Carrie Danneman acted
AS bridesmaids and Messrs. X. IL. Rob-
inson and John Couture AZ groomsmen
for the happy event. In the evening a
pleasant ball was given in the hall in
1 their honor. The GLOBE extends the
usual congratulations.
The news Of the suspension Of the
First National bank Of Arlington on
Tuesday morning. oath, caused quite a
ripple Of excitement among our people
when they first learned OF II next day.
A dozen or more Of our bnsiness men are
"nipped" 10 the time Of several hundred
dollars or more, and number Of them
for small amounts. One of the most diff
1 ficult things for the public to understand
is why the banks last quarterly state
ment represented il to be in flourish
ing condition. The Arlington Record
even commented upon the banks sound
financial condition. L. G. Rollo, the
cashier, we are informed, says the de-
positors will not lose anything, as there
is enough money on hand to pay them
all in full.
Az per order OF our county court,
Messrs. II. q. Robinson Of Lone Rock,
G. A. Danneman of Glen, and Jas.
Frizzell Of Lost Valley met Monday and
assessed the damage for the new road
up the ravine from Thirtymile to Con-
don. Looney asked for $1,000 damage
and WAS allowed $3.50; Trimble asked
$3.50 damage and was allowed nothing
f. NJ. Shannon asked for 800 damage
and was allowed $50; Jas. Kiser asked
for 800 damage and was allowed sos. A
fairer or more impartial board of asses
sors could not have been appointed, and
1t is hoped their decision will be salts
factory to all concerned. II Is hoped
that work will be commenced on this
new road at once, so as to have it ready
for the fall hauling OF wheat, etc. This
improvement will be worth more to the
people of this county than any other
that could be done with three times the
expense Of this road.
