"Speck" kept himself within the pale
of barnyard civilization; but event
ually the hens began to set upon
their nests in silent anticipation of
coming events, while he set his head
to a high key of neighborhood devil
ment. Over to a negro house he
went, frailed out two ROSTERS, got
caught by the yard dog and sent
back home. When he had slightly
recovered, he put out a pigs eye and
made young goat call for help in a
fence corner. Then he tackled a
yearling in the front yard and a tur-
key gobbler under the grape vine,
had clawing match with Moscow

departed this life Wednesday, Nov.

a protracted illness of several weeks.
Mrs. Donovan was an estlmable lady,
a loving and indulgent parent to her
dutiful and devoted daughter, Miss

little Tommy G. who are left to face
the realities of a stern and cruel
world without the guardian care OF

Judge DeArmond will leave for
Washington in few days. The
Judge says he would like to be in
the city few days before the meet
ing of congress.
The many friends of Rev. Carpen-
ter in this city and elsewhere in the
state will be more than glad to learn
that the committee which investigat.
ed the charge against the reverend
gentleman at Nevada last week fully
and completely exonerated him from
the accusations made against his
character. The sister of the woman
arrested at the church, and who
placed Rev. Carpenter in false posi-
tiop, stated under oath that her sister
had been employed by two men on
the payment of $40 to disgrace him.
There was no secrecy about the
investigation and the whole matter
was sifted to the very bottom, the
public being made acquainted with
the facts and entire evidence taken
in the case. The church where the
investigation was had was crowded
with people and when the report OF
the committee was read the demon
stratior made was in accord with
the verdict.
