Crum meat market Tuesday when the
mail was late in the morning. Some said
slate would crack in a hard hail storm
and you could mt drive cut nails without
breallin' them in it. The P. O. S. of A.,
boys are putting up nice hall all right
and they ought to have settled this before
they decided to put the roof on.
We reckon Gundy Ad. Logue who
lives on the Fork above the Red Bridge,
on the same side as the Old Grist Mill is
on, has been trappin pretty steady
this while back by the number Of
circulars he's getting through the p. o.,
with price of Pelts on Hope he will be
more successful in sellin them than
Uncle Jake was one winter. Trapped
all winter and in the Spring sent all
his skins out to a Commissioner at
Columbus, o., who din't pay any ways
near up to the prices printed and sent out
after deducting his present.
The last late election has been a great
impetus to us here. Our neighbors in
the village up at Driftwood are going to
bore for oil and some of our own Citizens
are tallin of buildin' dynamite plant
quite aways above the old Turtle rock
up Poorman's shanty branch in Grove
Run. There's been quite rivalry be-
tween the two sections for some time
back. Ever since the old Parsonage was
down near the old grave yard they've
been trying to move it up there. Late
laa Fall some of our B. b. c., boys
Clipped in aad paid the expenses back Of
some of our old ball players who don't
live in our midst any more to play them
on their own ground and our feelin Tor
them has been just about the same ever
since. Here's hopein thc'll strike oil up
there and | spose maybe they would be
! glad if our Dynamite factory did 90 up.
Well, they may be able to tie Old Sinna-
malone but they'll never beat her
We notice some of our Y. NJ. & Y L.,
are takin' advantage Of the sleighing
weather in the evenings Tuesday night
when we were coming from the p. o.,
after the mail was changed we past two
loads We noticed in the sled facing us
on the side opposite from the side we
were walking on the following Y. NJ. &
Y j.. viz; H. Speaker aud Y. L., f.
! Lghtner and Y. H., c. Krebs and Y. l..
! The 18th one on the same side we could
not make out as Just then jim Barr hit
his horses cut. The 2nd load past us
! Just on the little knoll below the wagon
, bridge which crosses the creek leading to
Wysidc but they were ioggiu' along so
fast we couldn't tell who all was in
Some OF them knew me alright because
they holared at me by my first name.
The r. p. US VINO meet at some other
house about the middle Of the week
every two weeks will join hands with some
Of the c. b. boys will give masquerade
party to those invited about the middle
! of next month maybe. The masks will
be fixed on so no can tell whose their
Pardner until after supper when they will
be took off, More than $50 invitations
will be handed round or like as nough
some will be sent through the p o., that
Tommy Snyder stays in. $50 is an aw-
full lot and maybe there won't be enough
to 90 around o. x.
As foretold il the columns of these
papers one Of tho most prominent mem
ber5 of the G. b. left that same night in
Dick Walkers cutter with his girl in for
Driftwood to take the l | o'clock train to
where they were goin' to get married.
We were mistaken as to the time of there
takin' off but we were told so by an out
slider
No. seems to know whose going to
run the store which the p. o. S. of A,
boys are buidin where they intend to
hold their meetings Bob Lightner used
to run it before it was burnt down by fire
and right after the fire he fixed up the
boys old coal shed and started to run in
it, but now they have built their Hall
nearly three stories up right in front Of
Bob place and you cant tell he is there
unless your right in front of it.
When Walter Stryker's train came
poppin in the other morningwho stepped
Of but John Fink. It's been long
while back since JnO. was seen on our
streets walkin' fast to and from to his
dinner. Many Of our Citizens were
Powerful glad to see Jno. agin, and
shake his hand His wife was along
with him aud lookin' well.
G. f. Barclay struck out for Old
Mexico Tuesdy. c. f. one of our promi
uent Citizens all right and George and
him are of a stock Co., who have
powerful interests in the rubber business
down there and he's gone to look after
! it. He'll be there till the middle o.
March maybe. His wife is with him.
