A LOCAL EPISODE.


The new hoof and mouth disease
made it's appearance at the Sturtevant
store, Saturday evening. During the
usual rush of business, while the
clerks were employed waiting on GUS
toners and Manager Dean absorbed
with receiving the weekly payments on
accounts, making change and passing
out to all the usual change of small
talk and genial smiles, some one,
whether as joke or driven by hunger,
removed can of cOrned beef. The
ever watchful eye OF Mr. Dean soon
discovered the loss, and while those
present had no knowledge of the facts,
it was plain that some serious trouble
had attacked the manager. He i'm
mediately took to the hOof, and, to-
gether with the chief of police, took
long steps to apprehend the culprit
before the mouth part Of the disease
had an opportunity to develop. How
ever, it is our painful duty to relate
that even after our chief of police had
followed the trail for an hour or more,
similar to the Indian manner of old
"Snake in the Grass" watching every
possible avenue of escape, and Mr.
Dean in the meantime perambulating
the surrounding country until his feet
were so sore as to require an all night IS
poulticing to reduce them to anything
like their normal size. They we're I'M
able to catch the thief, however,
whom we can picture greedily devour-
ing the beef, with the memory Of the
managers smiles and playful remarks
and pranks as a relish to help his en-
joyment and digestion.

drainage tract in the human system
is damned up, decomposition ensues
