FIGHT TAKEN INTO COURT
Efforts Made to Stop Construction of
Lewiston CITY Hall.

Lewiston City Hall.
INSTRUMENTATION has been insti-
tuted in the District Court to re-
strain the payment of money from
the general fund for the building
of new City Hall building. The
contract for the new structure was
awarded several weeks ago, but ac-
tual construction was not started I'M
til this week.
The citizens opposed to the cree
ton of the type ,of building now
planned and on the site selected
have invoked the technical features
of the law relative to handling the
various funds of the city and hope
to prevent carrying out the Coun-
ellis plans by this procedure, while
the opinion of the City Attorney is
to the effect that all legal features
have been complied with in award
ing the contract for the City Hall
construction.

Wcs Woodruff, our eckspert hunt

Gootchic Pond last Sunday, which was
a beautiful day for fishing. Wes said
he was setting on the shore of the
Pond nearly asleep when something
took holt OF his line and nearly jerked
his pole outen his hand. Wes he
yanked on the pole until it nearly bent
double and then he saw that he had q
10 ID. pickerel, which he says was 4
feet long more or less. Wess say he
rasseled with that pickerel for nearly
a half hour but he knowed if he tried
to pull It out on shore his pole would
break, so he waded into the pond up
to his waist and tried 10 draw the
pickerei near 'enuff to him so he could
ketch II with his hands
When he thort he had chsnse TO
Go this he made a grab for the pick
erel and his feet slipped and ne went
cleen in under the water, which took
him so BY surprise that he let 60 Of

The LeaCing Paper Of the County
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

We read last week in a copy of
a city paper which come TO the
BingvilIe P o. by mistake, and
which Eph Higgins, our ackomo-
dating P. II. lent to US after he
had read It through hisself, that d
cupple OF fellers by the name Of
Wright, who are brothers, have in
vented what they call a airship for
the purpose OF navigating the air
insted OF the water.
This paper says there amt no
doubt but what the day will come
when folks will be flying around
through the air in airships just like
swallers or bluejays, and that they
will be able to go faster than on
the steam cars.
Now we don't know much about
airships, being as this is the first
time we ever heered about one, but
we calckilate it would be a consid-
cradle spell before this airship traf-
fick ever amounted 10 very much.
As editor and prop. OF the Bing-
vile Bugle, we would rather a
good cal take our chances on the
ground than we would to take our
life in our hands and try to get
anywheres in a airship-we would
ruther, if we desired to take a trip
to the Co. seat for instance, go by
OK team than by airship, even
though the airship went in Is min
utes and the OK team took Us all
day.
However, far be it from US to
stand as a obstackle in the path OF
progressive are not going to use
the Bugle to discourage the efforts
Of airship inventors. We are not
like Wes Woodruff, our eckspert
hunter and trapper. When We told
Wes about the airsmps, and said
ike as not some day they would be
flying along over Bingville, Wes
ne said he'd like to see gosh
rammed airship sailing around over
this town Wes said that the first
i.airship he seen cavortin around in
the atmosfere above Bingville he'd
run for his old muzzle loader shot
gun and let the hot air outen It just
as quick as he could shoot at a hen
hawk. Yves says that so many new
invenshions which people was get
ting up nowadays made his fool
he'd ache.
Seth Dewberry, our lion-harted
town constable, said he believed
airships would be a great thing,
and as soon as he could afford II
he gessed he would buy one and
use it to chase ottermobiles which

Il Watkins Gets a Awful Surprise
While Spring Ploxing & Might
Of Been Kid as a Result If Kind
y PmTidsncs Hadn't Intsrfsarsd

L Watkins, one Of our most re
speckted citizens, had d thrilling eek
sperients last Monday morning, which
Il gives L a pain to recall every time
he thinks Of it and It was only BY the
intervenshion Of a kindly providence,
as you might say, that We are now
writing about Izze's servival insted of
writing his obituary notise.
Last week L made I'D his mind he
would plow the hillside pastchure back
OF his place and plant # IN corn and
50 he started IN plowing Monday
morning bright and early Just about
daylight with his 2 oxes, Barney &
Berry.
As everybody knows, Izze's hillside
pastchure is probly one OF the stoniest
pieces OF ground in this nzborhood. L
says that IN the past he has nearly
broke his back picking I'D stones often
that pastchure and Juggling them to the
stone fence which surrounds Il He
says no matter how many stones he
lugs offen the pastchurc one wear.
there seems TO be just as many there
the next year and that he believes that
the stones on that pastchure must
sprowt and grow there
Well, Il had plowed a cupple Of fur
rows around the pastchure and was
coming down the hill on the east side
IN the third furrow when the point of
the plow went in under stone ledge
which cropped out and the oxes
stopped. Instead Of sliding the plow
over the ledge ike he ort 10 Of done.
Il got mad at the oxen and prodded
both OF them with his OK goad. The
oXeS who was nearly asleep woke I'd
with start and nearly jumped outen
the yoke. This run the plow point
still further under the ledge and
brung the plow handles forward with
jerk. Il, who was hanging onto the
piOw handles like grim death, was
throwed high into the air and come
down right betwixt the oxcs with one
leg run through the yoke
This frightened the brutes to such
eckstent that they run of down that
hill with their tails switching the air
and bellering ike everything, banging
the plow along over the ground be-
hind them.
What was L doing al this time YOU
ask? L was praying to be saved from
ignominious death-that's what he
was doing. The oxes had shook him
outen the yoke all but one foot which
remained fast and as 4 result L was
drug along between the kritters while
the tongue banged him on the he'd and
body until he nearly lost conscious
ness. AT the bottom of the hill the
oxes run into the stone fence and
stopped while L unsnarled hisself and
set down on the stone fence, 10 rest
after what he had went through. L
has 2 or 5 bumps on his he'd as big as
hens egg and his ankle was so
sprained that he IS linping yet.
After he had recovered suffishiently
Il unhitched the oxes and driv them &c
the COW stable and after he got them
inside he shut the door and give them
both good thrashing with I big, black
snake whip. Il thrashed the oxes and
cussed them until he was outen
breth.> L is man Of great ackom-
piishments-he can make a beautiful
prayer one minute and the next min
ute be can cuss a OK Until fly
wouldn't light on IT,
L has desided that he wont plow
the pastchure back of his house and
plant it In corn this season
