Monday night the choir from the
Conversational church chartered sleigh
of the old fashioned variety, with hay
rack for seats, and after inviting num-
Der OF friends to participate with them,
started for Moscow to visit the choir IN
that city according to pre-arranged plan.
The sleigh contained II merry souls, and
the ride was one continual round OF adj
venture. First the sleigh broke down,
and then, after walking a couple OF miles
till an accommodating farmer was found
who loaned them another vehicle, they
discovered that the whiftietrees would
persist in coming unfastened, but iinaIly
after many narrowing escapes, they ar
rived at their destination, and partook
of the bounteous repast served, ana uIl
one o'clock Moscow rung with their
music. The homeward trip was a repe-
tition of the one going, till the ride was
about to end, when on entering Pullman
the grand climax occurred. 1t was a
serious upset, and for a while it was dill
fcuIt to tell who was who or what was
what. The seventeen were finally all
fshed out of the ditch, and an inventory
taken. Prof Sears and O. F.. Cole were
the worst damaged of all, but they are
fast recovering their equilibrium again.
A sample sack of the product OF the
Cornwall burr mills was left at the HER
AID office last Wednesday. This is the
only burr mill in the country, and as
many prefer -four made by that process
to that made by the roller process, it has
an immense run. The mill does GUS
tom business, and grinds the grisU the
same day it is brought in. The graham
flour made by this mill can not be eX-
celled, and the entire product OF the IN
sttution is frst-class. Mr.. Geer, the
proprietor, will make an effort to inter-
est Pullman people in his flour, and
will doubtless sell considerable OF it in
this vicinity.
Yesterday morning J. NJ. Palmerton,
of the Artesian hotel, and I. E. Bramel,
president of the Farmers bank, had a

Mr.. P. didn't like this kind of argument
and is today bringing proceedings against
Bramel for assaultwith a deadly weapon

ular lecture, entitled "The Boy" Satur-

what sort Of scientific way the professor
