Short Creek.

1t rained so hard last week
That it raised this little creek
And washed off Ike. Bedell's harrow,
And was not found until the morrow.
1t was found up in tree,
About three quarters of mile away.
Well readers if you wish to see an
Iowa freak,
When you happen round here on this
creek,
Call at H. wions without fail,
And see calf without tail.
Nelson Smith has been feeling quite
blue,
But now he has buggy new.
Charlie Campbell makes his regular
call :.
Up at Mr.. Straights in spite of all
the rest of the boys,
He keeps them out as though they
were toys.
Mable Lloyd and Fife Gentry are
doing fine
In the dressmaking line.
Iguess they've bout learned the trade.
Then they'll sit around in the shade.
William Wion has been sick,
With an attack of the rheumatics.
We have been having so much rain
That the farmers must all rest again.
But after while the work will come,
And they won't have any time to
burn.
c. M. Bedell lost a large amount of
soil
And great amount of toll,
As the creek overlooked
All the bottom that he plowed.
Mrs. Henry Wion has six hundred
little chicks,
And hens setting twenty-six,
A great many more she could have
had,
IL the weather hadn't been so bad.
Eli Straight last Friday morn
Was hunting for early seed corn,
Well guess Ill have to close,
For tbs about time the mail goes.
Now since Joe has dropped out,
guess I'll take turn about.
And by keeping even with him,
/ will remain, your affectionate Jim.

Presently Apoleona came down and
looked at me through the hole. I asked
him if he would let me in and he ask

said l had not and asked where he
could be found. He said he was at the

that only a friendly game was in prog

Witnesses have testified to having
won and lost money and to having
made contributions which probably
found their way into the gamekeeper's
pockets. 1t was like pulling teeth,

two witnesses in the Moore gambling
case could have given testimony which
would have considerably illuminated
Moore's position in the premises. A

ot. Petersburg, Oct. 23.-The rail.
road strike situation shows no signs
Of amelioration. Traffic across the
central belt Is paralyzed, while gen
eral strike which broke out during the
day at Kharkoff has cut off communi.
cation in another great section of the

the line to the Donetz coal region, on
which Russia largely depended for fuel
during the crisis In the oil regions, and
the line to Odessa and Sebastopol
Moscow is isolated, except the line to

an International line, via Fydtkuhnen,
