ed than in any other way. As indicat-
ed in Governor Cummins proclamation

sault upon Charles M. Crowell. as he was
returning from the Sidney fair, Oct. A.

seized Mr.. Crowell's horse by the bride
and afterward fired several shots at him
In starting his horse quickly to escape
them the father was thrown to the
ground and his shoulder broken, which
has confined him to the house for a mum
Der of weeks. Through the sympathy OF

Board of Trade MEETING.

An important meeting of the Board
of Trade has been called for Thursday
evening. The most important thing
probably that will come up will be the
arrangements for the dairy conference
which will be held in the city, Dec. 3-5.
AS already announced, the Board is
planning to tender a reception to the
visitors on the opening night of the
conference and committees will doubt
less be appointed and other arrange
ments made at this meeting.
Another thing that is scheduled is
the discontinuance of the noon train
on the narrow guage. This train has
been missed since it has been taken
off and an opportunity will be given
for discussing the matter and to see
what can be done. Other matters are
also scheduled so the meeting promises
to be a lively and interesting one and a
large attendance is desired.
