Vinton Spain, who resides on the East
Gallatin, was the victim Of a particularly
aggravating piece of spite work, which
resulted in a considerable money loss to
him as we'll. Threshing had been fin
ished n some $500 sacks of grain were
piled up in a field, from whence they
We're to be hauled to the elevator. Dur
ing the night some persons who owed
Mr.. Spain a grudge thought to pay him
back by cutting the sacks to pieces and
splitting the grain upon the ground. The
sacks alone represent al outloy of about
$500, and the labor consumed to gather
and re-sack the grain will be quite an
item, as will also the amount of grain
wasted. It must have been a particu-
larly narrow inc vicious mind that
prompted such a method of retaliation
for some real or fancied injury.

What are the feelings OF an officer

whole body Of the army behind the
regiment. While the men were leis-
urcly tying their horses mn officer

percmptorily: What have You stop
