1t looks now as though Frank Miner
would have to lose the use of his left
hand which was badly injured by being
caught in machinery in McIlroy's mill
some weeks ago. This is very unfor-
tunate for Mr.. Miller, who is a veteran
of the War of 1861, and was terribly
| wounded in the right shoulder, by 4
bullet while on duty. Mr.. Miller ran
away from home and enlisted when but
l3 years old. He volunteered to go into
a very dangerous place and was shot
in a few minutes after stepping out.
He and another young soldier were
the only ones that escaped death. His
shoulder is now nearly useless and
with both injuries he is incapacitated
from doing any labor.

There is resident of Monmouth who
got into q little trouble last week by
being ignorant of the law. He put
poison out in his field to kill foxes
that had troubled his hens. Another
Monmouth man with his little dog was
crossing the field in which the poison
was and the dog partook too freely Of
the poisoned meat and died. Suit was
brought and the man settled by paying
$35. The law reads whoever for the
purpose Of killing wolves, foxes, dogs or
other animals, and not for the destruc-
ton of insects or Vermin in Il building,
leaves or deposits any arsenic, corro-
Sive Sublimate, nuX volnica, Strychnine,
or prusic acid within two hundred rods
of a highway, pasture, field or other
improved land shall be fined not less
than twenty, nor more than fifty dol
lars or be imprisoned not less than
thirty, nor more than sixty days."
Probably many like this Monmouth
man do not know the law in such cases.
