thing from a tooth pick to a Panama hat
Our East Side merchant, w. H. Logue,

harrows and Easter bonnets besides full
line Of spring medicines and spring
wagons. Prospective purchasers would
do well to give him a call before going
elsewhere. Open evenings.
Promoter w. w. johnson announces
a six round contest between W. Il. Smith
and Operator II. S. Getchell Saturday
evening at A. w. Smiths Gymnasium.
However this contest may not take place
as Mr. Getchelll refuses to appear unless
! Mr.. Smith removes his whiskers. Mr..
Smith does not like to do this as they
are just getting to nice length now and
look real cute However everything
may be arranged satisfactorily as a party
from Rich Valley can be substituted in
Mr. Smiths place in case he refuses to
part with his "Van-Dykes"
Our worthy correspondent from Pine
Street certainly has wonderful dog and
we are forced to take a back seat with
our registered hogs and bears but we still
claim to have the best flock Of four year
old layin-; hens in the county. They lay
around the back door waiting for feed
they fill up and lay on fat and pompous-
ity evidently They are aware that the
holiday season Is past and that live poul-
try is only worth 9 cents pound
The first week of the new Manual
Electric Lock and Block Signal sys-
terra between Cameron and Huntley has
proves that this system is decided sue
cess in every particular. The Operators
that handle this plant are Messrs. Page
and Krape at Cameron, Miss r. l..
Brink and Messrs. Dice and Morrison
at Sterling Run, and Messrs. Sullivan
and Getchell at Huntley. These opera
tors are strictly up-to-date in all forms
of modern railroad train service and enjoy
the confidence of their superior officers
and public at large Aside from Oper-
ator Sullivan reverting to poetry and
chickens once in while everything moves
as smooth as can be desired. Chiet In
strustor w. Il. Crupp of the lines east of
Pittsburg, say there is hopes for Sullivan
yet. Great credit is due to w. K. Cupp
for the masterful way he has instructed
the aforenamed operators. Always quiet
and unassuming but when he speaks it is
evident that he is we'll read in all matters
pretalning to the vital parts of railroad
service. Mr. Cupp is also an excellent
plasterer and paper hanger and spends
his summer vacations in following these
! lucrative vocations,
Sullivan breaks loose again in the fol
lowing:
In the good old days of nineteen six,
And many years before,
Our hands were tull of clearance cards.
And orders by the score,
a nineteen and thirty-one,
For each and every rain
We ran them up to Cameron and ran them
back again.
But now our new electric block
Has brought wonderous change
And our good Mr.. Anthony
SO nicely has arranged,
That trains shall move by signals,
To the east and to the west,
Just tell us where you wish to go,
And we will do the rest.
