Yesterday afternoon there was
very exciting runaway on main street
in which the team of Will Swanbro of
Spencer Brook and Aug Rines' auto,
and buggy belonging to John Olson
of Wyanett figured rather conspicu-
ously. Mr.. SwanbrO's team was
standing in front of Sam Carew's store
while Mr.. Swanbro was inside trading.
When the auto came up the horses
would not stand for any new-fangled
machines for travelling and they broke
away and dashed south on the street,
on which there were at the time many
teams and vehicles. There were
several men standing on the corner
when the horses started but they never
made any attempt to stop them. AS
they dashed down the street the wagon
hit the buggy belonging to Mr.. Olson
and it was badly wrecked. The old
white horse belonging to the buggy
was hitched to a post in front of Ben
Grants store and it never made any
attempt to run. The Swanbro.> team
when last seen was making for the
Brook at lively pace.

Fred c., Schmidt returned recently
from very pleasant trip to his old
home in Howard county, iowa, where
he spent a week. He took along his
three little boys. Mr.. Schmidt said
that; he did not take along any sam
pies of Mile Laos county farm pro-
ducts as he supposed that those of
Iowa would put them in the shade, but
when he found that Howard county
farm products could not come up to
those of Mile Laos county at least
this year, he was very sorry that he
did not take some corn and potatoes
and grain along. He says that the
Iowa corn is SO green that the water
can be squeezed out of it and the oat
crop was practically total failure.
Weeds in the fields were waist high
though the farmers cultivated five
times. Land in that section is worth
$50 to s75 per acre but has been in
very little demand*the past year.

There are rumOrs about of some
very aggravating cases OF incorrigi-
bility on the part of some of the
school children in the lower grades,
but their number is few let it be said
in justice to the rest of the children.
1t is not to be expected that the aver
age teacher can handle wilfully
tough and disobedient scholar and
the only thing to do with such scholars
is to thrash the toughness ont of them
or expell them from school. Juvenile
depravity should not be tolerated in
our schools and should be dealt with
severely.
