Traer. Nov. IA smooth young fell
low has been working the people Of
north lama, according to the Nstar-
Clipper. and the details OF his game
may save some others from biting. The
STAR Clipper says:
"A smooth fellow OF ministerial adj
dress appeared In Traerslast week rep
ressnting himself to be In the employ
OF the government, with duties to
travel over the country and distribute
ehe ten volumes OF books entitled Mes
3tages and Papers of the Presidents"
He said the work had been published
by the government at great expense,
that the appropriat ton for this purpose
was exhausted, but that congress had
decided 10 give the common people a
chance to get the books at bare cost o.
binding 81 40 each and that he had
been sent out to distribute them to G
few representative people In each
county. The pfttaDce of $40 for the
set was claimed to be put small pei
cent Of the cost Of printing. AS we
know the government does not do bust
ness that way. and as our associate
editor had the same books In the Office
which were furnished free by the con-
gresham, the smooth gentleman was
given asstrong hint that he was an i'm
poster. He became somewhat alarmed
and did not seem to be anxious about
making the distribution to the other
Representative men. IN fact, he forth
with returned the $40 he had collected
from one Traer gentleman and sought
greener pastures. The swindle is i;
catchy one and the fellow is reaping a
harvest His name is NJ. H. Calhoun

Belle PLANE, Nov. 1s.-That for

main line of the 90 next SEASON. If

credited, it is likely that the road will
make for CharitonS which is about thir-
1ty-five or forty miles from the end of

The latter denies that he had anything
TO do with the affair, and claims that
the crime was committed by some
women who was jealous OF the widow,
as Carlson had been known to pay Mrs.
Larsen considerable attention. Public
interest is very high, and the trial to-

fact against Carlson is that he is

grooves OF the wheat sometimes retain
little dust, This is completely elm
mated by an appliance. which, seizing
each grain lengthwise, splits it exactly
in the groove. The wheat then passes
into the mill, composed of fiat. circu-
lar steel grinders grooyed in such a
manner that they accomplish the de-
cortication of the kernel and its gran
ulation into meal at the same time.
These grinders are movable. but do
not touch so that instead Of crushing
the wheat and producing a -four in
which the starch only is retained. the
outer and harder portion of the wheat.
containing gluten and other nutritive
properties, is retained in the -four, The

Attached to the mill are the works
for kneading lie meal water, AMI

mechanically, the works being SEN
arted into three stories. Special yeast
is prepared in the upper story in rooms
heated in winter and cooled in sum

and filtered water are carried down by
machinery into the kneaders in the
form Of half cylindrical tubs, rotating
on two pivots placed in the axles OF
