Towhead Reforming.

Paducah News-Democrat: The tow
head at the foot of Tennessee Island
few years ago was large enough to
hold dimunitisa forest of willow and
other trees but now barren, has shown
up again. About three years ago all
the trees and shrubbery was cut away
by water and ice foes. 1t was pre-.
dicted that the towhead would then
disappear, adding mud to the current.
Although farther over towards the
Ohio side II is shown to be intact as
exposed by the low water The cur.
rent is changing and the towhead may
yet grow another outfit of willows and
become living island once more.

CHANGING GAGE OF
OLD E. & C. RAILROAD

Word has been received at.Sparks
that the Southern Pacific is at work
changing the narrow gage railroad
running north of Keeler to standard
gage, using 75-pound rails and rush
ing the work as fast as possible.
Grading has been completed for a
distance Of ten miles from Keller.
Mojave is headquarters for the
firm which has the sub-grading con-
tract. Information comes from this
company that in all probability this
standardizing of the old Carson and
Colorado through the valley will be
completed within year, and the
connection with the broad gage road
at Nina be made soon after.
Again, it is rumored that a spur
will be run out of Laws into Bishop
just as soon as the gage of the main
track has been widened. Bishop will
be thus placed in very advantage

One cold, wintry morning man

A piece of ice under the snow caused
him to lose control of his feet; he
began to slide and was unable to
stop. At crossing half way down
he encountered large, heavy wo-
man. The meeting was sudden, and
before either realized it collision
ensued and both were sliding down
hill, the thin man underneath, the
fat woman on top. When the bottom
was reached and the woman was
trying to recover her breath and her
feet, these faint words were borne
to her ear: Pardon me-, madam,
but you will have to get off here.

en- at the home of Mrs. Will Cook
in Milford township ON Friday. She
invited all of the Larkin ladies. and
gave the dinner in honor of Mrs.

part for her new home in Dakota.
The dinner was certainly perfect. The
roast turkey. the scalloped oysters in
fact everything eatable was on the
table. Mrs. Cook never does things
by halves, and the whole day spent
there was surely. one long to be
remembered by all the guests. A
drawing contest created much merri-
ment and Mrs. McHenry received the
prize as being the best artist. 1t was
late when the party broke up but
none regretted the long drive to her
home. She was assisted in serving
by Miss Ethel Huckstep and other
