A large number of the Garden Grove
people were attending the chautauqua
at Leon last week and all were exceed
ing we'll pleased with the talent on the
programs. We understand that enough
season tickets were taken before the
close to guarantee the assembly next
year when the bureau expect to put on
much more expensive talent. The
manager in his closing remarks Sunday
evening stated that the chautauqua had
started with the smallest audience the
bureau had had this season and had
ended with next to the largest. The
county in general aside from the town
of Leon are pleased that this movement
has been started and everyone is anx-
ious to give it their hearty support. 1t
will be a great factor in the education
and moral tone of the county in general

While the Rock Island section force
was engaged Tuesday in filling up the
crossing just south Of the depot one of
the hands named Driscoll discovered a
gold ring set with large diamond in
the dirt he was shoveling. 1t proved
to be the ring lost by the late Frank
WATSON about five years ago which be-
longed to his brother, Coll WATSON.
The latter heard of the finding of the
ring and it was turned over to him by
Mr.. Driscoll, who received reward of
$500. The ring is valued at about

A good prospect for gold on the farm
of ]. J. Banks, four and one-half miles
east of Ridgeway. Although Mr.. Banks
has not been talking much he has done
considerable thinking concerning the
gold on his place; nor has he been idle,
as he has taken specimens found on his
place to several experts, who pro-
nounced them genuine. So far as we
know, Mr.. Banks is the only person in
this vicinity who has ever had any of
these specimens examined. We are
sure that if gold is found in paying
quantity on his farm he will be very
thankful to the gentlemen who set the
people in this community, as we'll as
elsewhere, thinking; and if the vein
proves to be worth the labor it takes to
get it it will certainly be a help not
only to the owner but to the whole
county. We understand that as yet Mr.,
Banks has not leased his place to any
one, and so long as he can find the gold
above ground, and can carry it around
in his hands, this is not in the least
necessary.-Ridgeway Journal.

The suit of Clark Williams VS.. Clarke
county will come up for trial at the
Union county term to commence at
Creston August 10th. The plaintiff has

$4,000 from the county. He claims to
have been injured by being thrown from
a county bridge in Washingtown town
ship. He was crossing the bridge with
team when one Of his horses stepped
through the floor of the bridge and be-
came fastened. Mr.. Williams says he
alightened to loosen the horse when the
animal plunged and threw him off the
bridge injuring him severely and
permanently. Mr.. Williams alleges the
accident was due to the defects in the
bridge and the negligence Of the coun-
ty. M. L. Temple and V. R. McGinnis
