--Tipovers and runaways are common
occurrences these days of bad country
roads. Tuesday morning Hugh
Sweeney was dumped out Of his cutter
soon after leaving his home for town.,
but held onto the lines and was dragged
some distance over the rough icy track,
sustaining bruises about the head and
face that has caused a good deal of ex-
planning. Tuesday evening as Earl
Langworthy was driving into town a
runaway rig came up behind him and
in trying to get out of the way his own
cutter was overturned and away went
his horse closely following the first
runaway, which proved to belong to
Steve Madden.

year which includes mayor, assessor,
treasurer, justice Of the peace, an al

present alderman Flagg, Conway,
and Skinner, whose terms expire and
a supervisor for each ward. There
will be no primary, but all candidates
will be placed on the ticket by nomina-

with the city clerk at least ten days
before election and should contain
twenty names. Election occurs on the

for the campaign. The question of
license or no license will probably be
voted on again this year.

day evening, given by the children of
the public schools, under direction of
Miss Emily Sewell, attracted one of
the largest audiences seen in the hall
for long time. It was contest for
the National Flower" and the parts
for the various representations were
costumed, staged and carried through
in way to make one of the most
pleasing entertainments of the kind
ever given here. The lines were all
well learned, time to the music was
perfectly kept and the costumes fine
representations. Miss Sewell is GER
tainly entitled to great praise in her
successful efforts to present the can
tata. The average person has but lit
tie conception of the time and patience
it takes to stage play of this kind,
where the parts are taken by tots
from the kindergarten as we'll as from
