We we're treated to a gentle fall
OF the acqua pura this morning,
ana there is still more in prospect,
The water in the Sulphuris reced- |
ing slowly,
The health of this community isl
excellent, thanks to the Director OF
all things Terrestrial and celestial.
While at work in the mill yester-
day, p, p, ELAN was struck on the
leg by a sledge hammer which slip
ped Off the handle while being WELD
ed by one Of his fellow-workmen,
which made a painful wound but
not serious as no bones were brok'
en-,
There are some very fine, large
fish in the Sulphur river now, as
was witnessed one day last week by
Andy Mitchell (colored) who caught
and exhibited to a wondering crowd,
a cat fish four and a half feet long
and broad accordingly 1t was truly
a monster fish,
A fair sized and attentive audi
ence listened to the lecture by G,
T, Mcclure, subject, "The Com
mands of God VS., the Commands Of
Men" His object was to show why
the commands OF men are detri-
mental to the growth of the chris
tian religion when inter.miXed with
the commands Of God, as given by
our Savior while on earth,
Keep in mind that Rev, j, W,
Paulk will eXpound the word of God
next Sunday Come hear him.
Capt, l., r. Tupper received a
copy Of the San Francisco EXami-

City Is not standing stjIl, but, on
the contrary, Is making some long
strides toward metropolitan great
ness,
II Is a current runor today that
Dr. Pegram and Fred Mcclure spent
the greater part Of last night look
ing for the air ship, and to make
sure that they would not miss see
Ing 1t they each engaged a pair Of
bright blue eyes to assist them, 1t
is conddeutially asserted today that
they became so fascinated they did
not see any ar ship,
Talk about Buffalo gnats, but If
you get acquainted with the Sui
phur sketer you will brag no more
of your miserable, half starved
gnats
Mrs, n, l., rupper went to TeSars
kama this afternoon, to spend a few
days with friends and relatives
Quite a number Of our people
went to independence last night, to
attend divine services, They are
having a revival under the preach.
Ing of Rev. Ridley Two members
were added to the church last
night May the good work 90 on,
Now, to Sister Bessj When you
said you did not hike the boys / felt
4 little hurt, but since you say you
like wIdowers It makes me proud to
know you don't care for the boys,
The fairies must have been
