the commercial spirit from the game
of ootbau and as a first move will

school does not seem to care for that
but is advertising the game the same

Lost in Dense Forest, SagaciOus Dog
Saves Children From Freezing.

Our Kellettville correspondent sends
us the following particulars of the re-
markable experience of two little child
rem who were lost in the dense forest
near that place:
Sunday evening two of John Thorn
toms little girls, Florence and Dora, aged
respectively twelve and ten years, ac-
companied by their faithful dog, started
to look for their COWS, which were only a
short distance from the house. They be-
came bewildered aud went in the wrong
direction, going about two miles in the
dense forest and we're not found until
Monday morning about eight o'clock.
Their father, in company with few Of
his neighbors, searched all night. In the
morning by the aid of several mill crews
and others, a systematic search was in
stituted, and the children were found on
the hill back of Buck Mills. They had
wandered around all night except for a
short time they rested under the roots OF
fallen tree. The ssgscious dog seemed
TO want to keep the children moving
around to keep them from freezing, the
night being very cold. So far as is now
known no injury has resulted to the
children from their exposure.

The Hickory Tannery Will Resume
Operations.

There is every prospect that work in
the tannery at West Hickory, which has
lain idle for number Of years, will be
started up again in the near future. The
plant, together with about 1900 cords Of
bark, has been purchased by Martin
Lawler, of Port Allegheny, Pa, whose
intention is to begin at once to put the
plant in shape for active operations.
Soon after this tannery had been alb
sorbed by the leather trust, some four or
five years ago, work was suspended
there, and while the suspension was sup
posed to be only temporary, no leather
has been turned out since, much to the
detriment of the business interests of the
town, and the present outlook for re-
sumption is causing no end of rejoicing
among the residents of the pretty little
hamlet
