Abilene Reflector: Miss Mcclure gave
an interesting talk before the county
high school students Friday morning.
Her opening sentence relating 10 the
"Kansas man who went to Egypt
where the dogs bark at the pyramids" !"
was highly reIished; though the fear
is grOundless that her "reminiscences
of Boston will ever prove bore. She
described L0ngfellOw's home, family
and last resting place in a very pict-
uresque way and also her visit to
Harvard University.
Two medium sized men in charge
OftwO fulI-grOwn jags marched down
street Tuesday. When they got
on the north side, one man fell down.
The other tenderly assisted him to
rise, brushed off his clothes and then
fell down himself. The unselfish way
in which each assisted the other at
his own peril was touching to behold.
They managed to slip out of sight
and are now probably engaged in
wondering where all the black and
blue spots come from.
Merchants around town have shown
varied and amusing ingenuity in

Last Monday dusky messenger ar
rived at DR.. JOnes's office and an
nOunced that the entire Washington
family had been poisoned and were all
on the point of leaving this vale of
tears. The doctor made all seemly
haste to the drug store and loaded up,
that is, procured supply of powerful
autidOtes and Burr COnlev. The two
hurried TO the Washington home on
North Walnut street and found about
fifteen cOlOred people gathered IN one
small room. The center of interest
was small boy about eight or ten
years old seated in a chair and evil
IDENTIFY very nervous and scared. The
assembled multitude was sure that
the boy was poisoned by something
he had eaten at supper, but the
doctor was unable to find evidence Of
any such trouble and thinks there
was more evidence of a fit of some
kind AS soon as the crowd could be
induced to go ont doors and the boy
got few breaths of fresh air he came
to and his chances of recovery are
very fiattering at the present writing.
