Mrs. Lncinds nd Freeman died If tha

Mrs. Lucinda NJ. Freeman died at the
home of her son, Fred Freeman, Friday OF
apoplexy, at the age OF 81 years. Mrs.
Freeman was the widow of A. w. Free
man, formerly of Brookfield. The funer-
al was held at the home of her son, con-
Quoted by Rev. II. M. Goddard. Her re-
mains were taken to Brookheld for burial.
Mr.. and Mrs. John Woodward extend
ed an invitation to the people OF the viii
lage TO visit his summer resort, the grove
pond, last Thursday. Quite large mum
Der accepted the invitation and found II a
most delightful place, with fine densely
shaded grove adjacent to a nice pond OF
water, fed by springs from the hills south
and west of II. The Surroundings are
very picturesque. At 4:30 the party sat
down 10 long table laden with refresh
ments, after which all seemed to enjoy a
stroll over the grounds. This resort lies
just west of the village, about one-half
mile distant and fully 200 feet above 1t.
Mr.. Woodward may justly feel proud OF
it, as 1t Is an excellent place to camp in
the heated weather. II Is another illus
tration of the enterprise of the citizens OF
the village as evidenced by what has been
done since the fire of 1SS7-the building
of 80 dwellings, a large block containing
10 stores with offices and residences ABOVE,
three other large business blocks, large
three-story school building, an improve
ment OF the park and streets, which GER
tainly is evidence OF thrift and enterprise,
although In one sense not remarkable.
But considering the conditions, amount
OF wealth and population it is not equalled
In any other village of its size in the state

Meadows Stage Line.

A notice posted in the post office
states that c. j. Stewart of Clinton,
Mo, has secured the contract to run
daily Except Sunday stage from
Weiser to Meadows for the next four
years at S2640 per year. The chang
ing of the route so rs to have one
through line to Meadows is the pro
per move, and another benefit is the
arrangement by the government for
the stage to leave Weser at o'clock
p m which will permit of all mail
reaching the upper country II to ID
hours sooner, and the traveller in haste
will leave the train and continue on
the stage the same day. 1t is said
that the contractor will put on Con-
cord coaches 1t is to be hoped that
no one here will subcontract the line
from the gentleman who has it on his
hands. 1t is too much the fashion
for contracting sharps on the inside
to bid in different routes at less than
they can conduct them for and then
sublet to some home man who loses
all the money while the original con
tractor makes few dollars The
best way to prevent the business is to
let the smart bidders have the fun oI
keeping up the line at their owp hg
ures In this case it is worth twice
$2640 to run daily line from Wei
ser to Meadows, in fact Gerry Snow
