A resident OF this section, who has acquired
more or less notoriety as "A bondsman, seems
TO be doomed 10 trouble of "a constant ana
lingering nature. For some time past he has
been emptying his pockctbook in lively, II
not pleasing manner, and II - said thnt yes
torday ho had IA few unpleasant hours. Nhlle
the business of professional surety wa for
time remuneratiyo, IL has recently not
proved so, tor he has had 10 pay quite a good
sized sum to the representatives OF the law
ON several occasions recently 20 satisfy the
state for the absence OF certain residents
when they were wanted for trial As mas
been before intimated, yesterday was another
dark day in the pathway OF his career, and ne
Is said To have had TO pay quite sum, owing
TO his disinclination to change his residence.
This gentleman II SAID not 10 be alone in his
GRIEF, for there are on this occasion others.
There Is one store In this section, the pro
prietor OF which seems 20 have IA strange idea
OF politenoss and some would say OF business.
The great American people are very polite;
IN fact IL II doubtful II any other nation but
the French Possess so many qualities that so
10 make life more agreeable for everyone than
they do. OF course there might be consider
able dispute as 10 what politeness really is
and the argument might be carried TO ex'
tremes ana there are some who may think
the merchant referred to has gone rather 10
the limit There are some persons who when
anyone ts in their debt feel rather harsh to-
ward the debtor and are disposed 70
use anything but polite language in speaking
TO or referring 10 such an individual. ms
merchant however, apparently looks al
things differently for he puts n list OF persons
OWING 10 MIN IN his store WINDOWS Win Inc
name OF the streets on which they live and
written underneath the list are the words
PLEASE SETTLE" As only the last name OF
the party is given there are possibilities that
II another person of the same name should
move on the street trouble might arise un-
less the list was changed somewhat. For
there might be persons who would object 10
being the target Of the merchants politeness.
This dealer has not been in business very long
and many are afraid that he viii grow hard
oned as he gets experience, and instead OF
using polite phrases 10 his debtors viii use
words unit 10 put up in the store windows.
Mrs. Jane Douglass has the sincere sym
patby OF large number of persons in the sad
Affections which have crowded upon the
home. Wednesday her daughter Maggie Louise
died after "A lengthy illness and IA little less
than three weeks ago another daughter died.
The death thar occurred Wednesday was the
third in the family within year.
Captain Baker had a rather difficult task
yesterday in trying 20 unravel "A certain case
OF alleged thieving that was made more diff
cult 10 straighten out owing TO the claim by
the suspected persons and those charging the
theft OF an inability 10 understand the En-
glish language. IL Is believed that the persons
making the complaint were more actuated by
ill-feeling toward those they accuse than
anything else.
The funeral OF Mrs. Mckay took place from
