e Myron G.. Green, the gasoline ana
oil man had "a serious accident happen
his delivery horse Monday. His hired
man was filling the oil tanks on the
wagon at Arthur Corners when the

overturning the tanks near the corner
at A. f.. Weter's, and while rounding
the corner at Chas. Cribb's ran onto
the walk where the animal fell ana
broke its right fore leg above the ankle
joint. A veterinary from Greenvliie
was called as soon as he got the horse
home but could give no encourage
ment and ii was shot. 1t is a sad loss

means Of carrying on his business.

being circulated by J. +. Presley
which is being literally subscribed 10,

THE DEAL COMPLETED.

The stone crusher has been at work
this week and it is "A powerful ma
chine. A threshing engine furnishes
driving power and is equal to the
occasion. 1t requires six men TO feed
it with stones which are crushed and
broken seemingly as easy as cider
mill grinds apples. The crushed stone
is carried by elevator into revolving
screen which drops the different sizes
into wooden bins from which it is taken
by the wagon load. The first twenty
rods Of road is now laid on west Main
street from Front street east. 1t is es-
timated that the expense per rod after
once getting in good running order for
building road can be brought down TO
three dollars. The council voted last
night to purchase the machine at a
cost OF 81 100.

Whenever anybody pours into your
ears some piece OF scandalous gossip,
says an exchange, remember there are
two sides to the story, and ask yourself
what the motive OF the teller may be.
1t will often be found that the scandal
monger has some personal grudge to
satisfy, or point to gain, which has led
to outrageous establishment OF the
original incident. Usually too, the
person whose habitual discourse and
conversation-stock in trade is bitter
and malevolent gossip, is a good per-
son to avoid. Generally speaking the
person who will villify neighbor to
you will vfllify you to a neighbor.
