NENf"t
Last SUNDAY was Andrew Lewis
birthday-also two of VIM. f. Lewis
children's. A goodly number of
Bloomington young people drove up
to Patch Grove in the afternoon and
helped them celebrate. A bounteous
repast was served. aud a good time
was had by all present.
Last Sunday afternoon Joe Donnellv
and Mr.. Sullivan hitched up and
started out for a drive. AS they en-
tered the west end of Canal Street
Bridge the tongue came down,-the
patent neck-yoke having been put on
upside down.-the horses became
frightened and started to run. They
were kept under control until the
tongue ran against an obstruction,
when they broke loose from the car
riage and ran as far as Miners place
in Little Grant. The carriage stop
ped so suddenly that it broke the
tongue, driving the longest piece
through the top and painfully though
not seriously bruising Mr.. Donnelly.
On the whole the outcome NAV be
considered lucky; things were pretty
badly smashed up. but it might have
been far worse.

1t is the duty of everyone. whether
at home or travelling for pleasure or

as are liable to come upon all in

Sarsaparilla as a general tonic. and to
keep the blood pure and less liable to

well nigh invaluable. Change of
drinking water often causes serious
trouble, especially if one has been
used to spring water in the country.
From a few drops to a teaspoonful of

water will prevent the water having
an injurious effect.

ROMANCE or AN OLD FIDDLE.
1t Brought wealth and Land to a
wichita Nan.


Hugh Mcclure, a farmer near Cod
dard, Kan, received a violin by express
that had in it something more soothing
to a Kansa farmer than music. Two
years ago his uncle. Peter Conroy. died
at Washington city. He was supposed
to have some none saved up, and IS
Mcclure was his only heir he antici-
pated a little fortune. When Conroy's
will was opened it was found that he
left nothing 10 Mcclure but an old hd-
die he brought from Tralee. County
Kerry. Ireland. in 1S4s. Mcguire was
50 indignant that he would not pay eX-
press charges on the fiddle to Kansas.
One night he dreamed the fiddle was
full Of money. He spoke about il TO
his wife. and the latter. believing in
dreams, appropriated $3.50 from her
butter and egg TO pay the charges. 1t
arrived to-day. and when examined he
found in it $1,000 in money and a deed
to $50 acres of land near Glymount, Va.
Not a word of explanation was with
the money and Hugh Mcclure is won-
dering what his uncle's idea was. The
instrument was torn to pieces to get
the money out, but it viii be glued to-
gether again and hung on the wall Of
Hugh McGutre's cottage as a monu-
msnt to his uncle's memory.
