Ross BeardsIey cut his thumb nearly
off last week with butcher kuife. His
brother John, from The Dales, is rum

One more week OF such fine, apring
weather wonld make the hills as green
as in MAY. Sheep are doing well on the
range nov, and horses also pick at the
green erase, but do not get enough to do
them much good in the way Of putting
: on flesh.

The Arlington Fossil Stage Co, was
compelled TO run an extra wagon last
week to carry the enormous amount OF
extra express to every portion OF the
county-Christma presents, holiday
goods, etc, sold by our merchants, whose
holiday trade this year was larger than
! ever before.
| The Indians gave another Of their hid
, eoua dances here on Christmas, charging
the paeiaces 25c to see the "perform-
ance." They did not make as large a
haul as last year, as most everyone here
! cav them at that time. Like the Dutch
man who fell into the swillbarrel, one
dose is more than enough,
Two Indians got into the cooler here
on Christmas for getting on the outside
. OF too much "firewater." Whoever sold
them the liquor should have been locked
in with them, so that the Indians could
"thump the camas ont OF him." That
7 would be better than boarding him a
week or two and letting the U 5 marshal
make a $50 fee out OF it.

i Our Christmas tree was grand sue
4 cess. Everybody turned out and all got
!, present or two. Prof Daggett was made
u happy by getting goodly supply o
II skunk traps for next summers use. A
very interesting program was rendered
before the presents we're distributed
u which reflected much credit on those
II who took part in it. Santa Claus CANT
Y direct from Klondike and telegrapheC
40 from all important stations enroute, but
was delayed somewhat between here anC
70 Blalock by running out OF snow.
u In most cases it is better to be aheat
D than behind time in giving news. Ii
It cases OF marriages, births, ETC., ii doe
not apply so well, however. In our men
NJ ton OF the marriage here last week i
a was no fault OF the GLOBE that it did no
=, come off on the date advertised; thu
W interested parties are to blame for no
I'd coming to time as announced in the pa
C. per. They had the necessary ''glor,
10 ticket" and we could see nothing to hin
der them from getting married on th
NJ day set apart by the GLOBE. Well, neve
's- mind by the time this Issue is out, the.
to will no doubt be married, and will b
all the happier for the mistake.
!. Since onr merchants here have brough
y down the prices on all kinds of good
rs and provisions to city prices, there
I'd not so much money sent out Of the coun
or ty to the large cities for supplies, as il
,a the past. That is fright; spend you
" money here in this county, where yo
Ut make it, and by so doing it keeps th
nd money at home where it is sure to fin
he its way back into your pockets again
~, Money sent out of the county never find
its way back again. Heretofore It ha
IT. been very discouraging to our meTohaut
when people we're in the habit Of send
ing all their cash to the large cities an
when out OF cash, came to them for credit
