Elroy Tribune: If there is any state
in the union that beats Wisconsin in the
variety of its products, it certainly has
wonderful record. All fruits are rails
ed except tropical, all vegetables and
grains, lumber for millions of homes,
then from deeper in the ground comes
iron, zinc, lead and even gold; there is
the wonderful dairy and stock industry,
and for relaxation the sportsman will
find deer and other wild game, lakes
and streams teeming with fish; and
many an aquatic individual has plucked
small fortune from an unpromising
looking clam shell. Bountiful nature
gives its reward at every turn of the
road.
What might have been a tradegy,
but turned out all right. occurred at the
home of Sam Cant in Waldwick a few
days ago. A young son of Peter Toay
was at Mr.. Giants home and was with
him where he was narrowing and like
many children of his age, wanted to
ride horseback. Mr.. Cant put him on
one of the horses and turned to do some
thing, when the team started and ran
away. The little fellow stayed on for
while and then fell off and landed be-
tween the horses. AS he struck the
ground, the harrow gave jump, pass
ing over the boy and leaving him un-
harmed. This was miraculous escape
and trying experience for all concerned.

Auchtermuchty is the happy town

STAGECOACAING DAYS.
An Old World Era With = Decided
Flavor Of Romance.

The old coaching days, as far as con-
veMience for travel was concerned,
were the dawn Of the great days Of our
present rapid means Of communication.
The seventy years or so in which mail
coaches waxed and fiourished and
finally died out before the incursion of
railways and steam engines have de-
cided flavor of romance attached to
them, and no doubt the coming and
going of stagecoaches lent certain
amount OF color and interest and life
TO the country places and towns
through which ran the great main
coaching roads. The Bath road, the
Dover road, the York road were high
ways Of communication along which
rolled the heavy private coaches and
charots Of the country magnates, and
the stagecoaches with their steaming
horses passed the various stopping
places with the regularity of clock
work.
These stagecoaches, with their COM
plement of coachluen and guards, af-
forded endless subjects of interest and
illustration to the artist and the liter
airy men of the day. Imagine Charles
Dickens without stagecoaches and de-
nuded of all his vivid descriptions of
the scenes such as those in the yard of
the White Hart inn. High street, Bor-
ough, in .'Pickwick," or of the mail
coach on the Dover road in "A Tale of
Two Cities" 1t is difficult for the pres
en- generation to realize the fatigue
and the wintry cold of such long jour.

Yves Allen has been located and all
the doubt as to his whereabouts has
been cleared away He is reported to
be in Ft Worth.
Allen left Gainesville last Tues.
day night lie completely dropped out
OF sight; nobody had seen or heard
anything of him since that night at
about 1880. He came to town during
the day with a load of cotton. sold
this. and was not seen any more.
The officers were notified of his
disappearance and at once instituted
a diligent search for Allen Every
place he was known to have visited
during Tuesday was visited by the
officers and nothing tangible was
found whereby he could be located.
Yesterday afternoon his brother
Jeff Allen at Forrestburg received a
money order for s25 enclosed in an
envelope. This envelope contained
nothing, but the money order, and
bore the post mark on its outside of
Fort Worth. The missing mans inf.
tials are "R. w" and .he money order
was signed "w. r. Allen"
The chief of police of Fort Worth
was notified and was asked to investi.
gate the matter and did so. The de,
scription of the man who bought the
order tallies exactly with Allen and
his whereabout is therefore disclosed
The cotton he brought to this city
was partly owned by Jeff Allen and
the $25 received is probably the mon.
ey for his share.
