August I've had very copious
showers on Tuesday and Wednesday.
The farmers are now singing the song
of gee-haw to their teams as they
break ground for wheat.
A few farmers in this section have
threshed. There were a few who did
not cut any wheat, others did not get
their seed back; the average was less
than three bushels to the acre.

Sunday last. I've greatly regret to
learn that Mr.. II. b. Paxton will

our most substantial and highly re-
spected citizens and his removal is II
distinct loss. He has been given the

fore permanently changed. We wish

Delightful Luray Excursion.

The Union Sunday School exc ursion TO
the Luray Cavelns, which left Buena
Vista last Wednesday, was a great sue
cess. Financially, about $3.50 was realized
as profits, besides giving free transporta-
ton to the members Of the Sunday school,
The excursion train consisted OF thirteen
coaches, drawn by two engines, with
about $50 passengers aboard. Business
houses of the city, including several
factories, closed for the day and a
generally deserted appearance prevailed
in the city. A pleasant feature OF the
trip was the delightful music furnis he'd
by the Buena Vista band which was re-
infOrced by several additional players.
