Calvin Trigg, who some months ago
left home suddenly and without warm
ing, has returned to his home. He
was a fairly well to do farmer and
owned farm near Bethel, west of this
city. He had no cause to leave and
after he had been away few weeks
he wrote his family from Illinois, but
did not say he would return. Last
week he walked in home, saying he
had been sick and had concluded to re-
x,lrn. He failed to state why he had
left, or why he had not notified his
family. He seems to be ashamed OF
his actions, and is quite humble. His
family were much worried. They are
a fine Industrious family.

and a brother of DR.. William Piper,
both of this city. Several years ago
the deceased practiced medicine here
and gained an enviable reputation as
a physician He left some years ago
and Since that time has travelled quite
extensively. The knowledge of his death
was quite shock to his relatives and
many friends, who were not aware OF
where he was. DR.. William Piper, his
brother, left Sunday evening for Cleve-
land, and will bring the remains to this
city, where the funeral will be held.
1t could not be learned last evening

Can't Bluff.


The Republican bluff on betting in
this city was soon called to a halt yes
terday, as some of Marks" party
stated that they would wager four to
one, but when called, backed down.
One had sand and said he would place
$500 to 800. This was promptly met
and the $100 was placed before him.
His sand here weakened, and he said
he would only put up small amount
and place the balance later. 1t is
most probable that the man will let
his amount posted go, as he has now
changed his mind. When the Republic
cans walk the streets and make their
bluffs, they will be met, but the bluff
ers have only one thing and that is
talk. They are void of money, and
have developed quite a yellow streak
already.
