 l. H. Parkman had a novel eXperi- ence the other day with a young rooster. Mrs. Parkman has an incu- bator and has the ranch lined with young chickens from little fellows up to good big flyers, some of which al FfrIT q strut around and crow accordingly. One of the larger young rOosters evil dently thought the well curb a good place to proclaim his superiority to his fellows, but made the mistake of his life when he flew up, but missed a place to light where he expected to, asN it was an open curb and MT. RodSter found himself down in the well twenty-five feet below. But as the well had caved from around the sides just above the water from time to time, he found a cool though rather dark summer resort without getting his feet wet As it was late in the afternoon he had to pass the night in solitary confinement until next day when Mir Parkman organ ized a relief expedition and went to his rescue.
 Mrs. T. N. Clanton's funeral Sat urday was one of the largest, and justly so, that Buckeye has ever seen. Mrs. Clanton was well known and liked by the whole community and is mourned by all. All the business houses in town closed their doors for the day, out of respect to the family and to attend the funeral. The son and daughter, Dave and Stella, ar rived from their distant homes at Long Beach, Cal, and Solomonsville, Ariz., only a few hours before the funeral which took place at 1 o'clock at the ClantOn home and was later continued at the Liberty cemetery, five miles east.
 There has been another change in the local telephone office. Miss Brimer has left and Miss Mcdonald has returned. Miss Mcdonald was formerly in the office before the ad- vent of Miss Brimer. If there is not some more wedding bells ringing be- fore another month has gone, we will miss our guess.
 Everett Bruner had quite a serious accident with a horse the other day. He had roped COW when his horse jumped a ditch on a tight rope, jerk ing him back in the ditch and break ing his leg. Mir. Bruner afterwards had to kill him.
