Don Kable who resigned his position
as agent of the c. r. I, & P at this place
the first of the month, has gone to Mar
ion. Kas., for few days recreation with
home folks, when he will enter the train
service. His run will be from Herring
ton TO Bueklin.
There was a vacant house in Bucklin
Sunday morning that had not been va
cant for some time and by the way there
was a vacant look on the faces of some
of orr too confiding merchants when
they learned of the fact. We are sorry
to see them lose their hard earned shek-
els.
Jas. Pendleton of Ford passed through
Bucklin Tuesday, with his car of house
hould goods and chattles enroute to some
point in Illinois where be expects to
make his future home Mr. Pendleton
has been in the short grass country
will be satisfied very long anywhere else.
May success attend you James. wherever
you go.
Don't forget that the ladies of the
Nj. E. Church serve ice cream and cake
every Saturday evening. the proceeds to
be used for pews in the new NJ e. church
Sunday school knows without telling that
the seats are badly needed. The ladies
are working hard to procure them. Give
them all of the help and encoura cement
that you can. Next Saturday the ice
cream will be served under the manage
ment of the young ladies and we be-
speak for them liberal patronage.
The weather clerk turned loose some
of his surplus electricity in this part of
the country last Friday night, ana we
don't care to have him do so any more.
It's too close to home. stray bolt fell
through 5. E. Stofer's kitchen roof and
tore things around generally in the kiuch-
en- and while it did not do any serious
damage, it woke them all up and perhaps
frightened them some. Not content with
mixing up the cooking utensils, it blew
out the light in ad joining room. West
of town it lit into A. Berger's wheat
stacks and set one of them on fire, but
fortunately Mr.. John Swayze saw the
fire and notified Mr.. Berger and they put
the fire out before there was a very great
loss. d. A. Star says that it set the prai-
rie afire near his place east of Ford but
guess the rain put that ont. SO far as
heard from, there was not much damage
done. but then just think of what it
might have done.
n. o. Peacock and family returned
from their trip TO Stafford and other
counties east of here, last Saturday.
They went to St. John to be present at
the wedding of their son Harry, who. on
July 3Oth 1902. at the home of the brides
parents in ST. John, was united in mar
riage with Miss Maggie Hentia, cere-
mony by Rev. Cline, p. E. of Oklahoma
district F. NJ. church. Mr.. Peacock says
that fifty three invited guests partook of
the bountiful dinner provided by the
brides parents, and that the happy cou-
pie received many substantial presents,
in fact enough to set them up in the
housekeeping line. The bride and groom
commenced their honeymoon by attend
ing annual conference. Mr.Peacock says
that while he was away he visited friends
at several different places, travelling
through part of Pratt, Stafford, Reno,
Kingman and Sedgwick counties and tina
in his travels he did not see any place
that suited him any better than south
east Ford county, for which we arise to
say that Mr.. Peacock is a gentleman of
sound judgment and knows good cOun-
try when he meets it face to face.
