CLAFLIN COMMENTS.
From the Clarion


81. D. VanNest is reported az be-
ing seriously i'll at his home west of
town.
August Debes who has been con.
fined to his bed for some weeks past,
died Thursday morning.
A bouncing big baby girl was born
Thursday morning to Mr.. and Mrs.
Valentine Groesardt
A certain Claflin clerk has been
papering his house and otherwise fix
ing it up. the past week, which leads
his friends to surmise that he is soon
going to cage his birdie.
Il will soon be time for the fishing
party to take the place of the duck
hunting party, but since the joints
are closed. the boys are in quandry
as to where they will get their .'corks"
and the thought that they will have
to go fishing so dry that they can't
spit on the bait is another great draw
back.
Yes, the joints are out of business,
out more drunk men were in town
Sunday than has been seen in one
day since last harvest. The little
square box. just big enough for jug,
is quite numerous at the express
Office these days, and the crusaders
can find smashing good opportunity
for good smashing business down al
Kansas City. This tip is absolutely
free and without price.
