Three Men and a Jug of Whiskey

SCARED MAN OUTRUNS TEAM

SCARED MAN OUTRUNS TEAM

Three men in a hay rack, to say
nothing of the jug, caused something
OF a commotion in the sheriff's office
Saturday. 1t seems that a farmer
from the northern part of the county
came to town Saturday to dispose of a
load of hay and, incidentally, to ac-
cumulate another kind Of a load.
While here he met a couple of young
Russians and worked up a horse deal
with them which resulted in their
taking passage to his home, some
fourteen miles north Of town, in his
nay rack. 1t may be reasonably as
sumed that the rack was pretty well
loaded when. the party left town. In
TACT, they cut up a few capers on Main
street that sent Emmett Burke after
them, but he could not overtake the
team. 1t is also reasonably certain
that all went well for a time. Now,
the farmer who wanted to sell or
trade horses claims that they stopped
for a few minutes near the Plummer
school house and got out and that
then and there the two Russians as
naulted him They were at the time
just one mile straight north of
Plummer's place and the farmer says
that he got away from them and
started for Plummer's for help and
that he beat the team there. He ex-
planned this to Deputy Sheriff Halle
by saying that he cut GRO lots but
could not explain how he could do
this when the road ran in a straight
line to the house. Mr.. Halle refused
to make a fourteen mile trip under
the circumstances. Finally the abus-
ed man went to Justice Jones and the
whole party was rounded up in justice
court and all told their tales of woe.
The two Russians said that the COM
plainant was SO drunk that he fell out
OF the hay rack twice and that the
fellow struck back. They said that
the farmer thereupon started down
the road on a run and that they tried
to overtake him but that the faster
they urged the team the faster he ran
and the harder he yelled and thai he
did actually beat them them to Plum
mer's. Meanwhile the wives Of the
two young fellows were frantic for
fear and had tried to get up a party
to rescue their husbands whom they
thought would be held up and robbed
as they had taken some money along
with them. Justice Jones told them
that he would give them all just
thirty minutes to settle the whole
matter or he would have them all ar
rested for drunkenness and fine the
whole burch each $40 and costs. 1t
took them only two minutes, however,
to adjust their grievances and repair
to the nearest saloon for a peaceful
drink in celebration thereof.

The Grip

"Before we can %sympathize with
others, we must have suffered
selves" No one can realize the suffer
ing attendant upon an attack of the
grip, unless he has the actual expe-
rience. There is probably no disease
that cause so much physical and men
tai agony, or which so successfully de-
ties medical aid. All danger from the
grip, howver, may be avoided by the
prompt use Of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. Among the tens of thous-
ands who have used this remedy, not
one last has ever been reported that
has resulted in pneumonia or that has
not recovered. For sale by all drug
