"lt is seldom that more attractive

They Celebrated Flag Day.

The following account of how two
former we'll known residents of this
county, Mr.. and Mrs. G. w. Carter,
who now live down in Oklahoma,
celebrated Flag Day, is taken from
the Geary, Oklahoma, Journal:
One of the most pleasant events
of this torrid season was the celebra-
ton held on Wednesday of last week
at the home of Mrs. G. w. Carter.
The Relief Corps of this place met
at their hall in the morning and with
our beautiful flag floating in the
breezes, marched to the home of
their much loved sister, Mrs. Carter,
where the remainder of the day was
spent most pleasantly.
The noon hour presented a scene
that will not soon be forgotten, as
the hostess invited the ladies into
the spacious dining room where the
table groaned beneath it's burden Of
delicious eatables, and the scene was
indeed appetizing, everything from
chicken and noodles to the tooth
pick. Mrs. Carter was kindly assist
ed through the serving hours by
Mrs. j. c. White and Mrs. S. G..
Craven, who added much < to the
pleasure of the party..by their cour-
teous manner andsprompt attention.

A Plucky Girl.

One day the latter part of last
week, Miss Zola Nighswonger, a
young lady about sixteen years of age
rode a saddle horse into town to do
some trading and when she got ready
to 60 home went to mount the horse
and had not seated herself in the
saddle securely when the horse be-
gan to buck and threw her onto the
hard road near the town we'll, and
ran west toward the M. E. church
where he was caught by "Pick" Wor-
den and Ira Barthlow. 1t was
thought by those who saw the acci-
dent that the girl must have suffered
some broken bones, but in a moment
she was on her feet and started run
ming after the horse. She had the
men hold the horse while she mount
ed, making several attempts, the
horse bucking, kicking and biting. all
the while. Finally she was able to get
securely seated in the saddle and told
the men to let him go, when she was
master of the situation. There are
not many women who have the nerve
or would exhibit such excellent
'horsemanship as this girl did,

Watched a Cyclone Form.

j. E. Leeper, who lives three miles
northeast of Leon, tells us Of seeing
a regular cyclone form near his
home last Sunday afternoon, and
after watching it travel for several
miles saw it explode and disappear
without doing any damage. He was
sitting on the porch at his home
when he noticed the funnel shaped
cloud forming high in the air about
over the Sears school house. 1t
grew larger and larger and made a
loud roaring noise, and looked to
him to be a hundred feet or more in
diameter, with the funnel shaped
tail hanging down towards the
ground. 1t moved off to the south
until it reached a point about half
way between Whitehall school house
and Leon, and then suddenly turned
back north and travelled until it was
almost at the spot where it formed,
when it seemed to explode, making
loud noise and the fragments of
clouds went flying in all directions.
Joe says he was afraid it was going
to; strike his place and was just get
ting ready to take to the cave when
it broke. He says it was the first
time he ever saw real cyclone, and
it was turning and twisting around
but did not come near enough the
earth to strike anything.

Some Heavy Road Work.

We had the pleasure of an auto
ride Sunday morning with J. R. Bow
sher out to the big Beavers hill about
seven miles east Of Leon on the Wau-
bonsit Trail, and could not but notice
the great improvement which that
good bunch of good roads boosters
living in High Point township, have
been making. For many years the
Beavers hill has been one of the
terrors to all who travelled the High
Point road, but when the Waubon-
sic trail was located the boosters out
there agreed to change and fix the
hill, and well have they done their
work. The new road up the hill
leaves the old road at the foot of the
hill and there is gentle grade to
the top of the hill now instead of a
very steep grade. The big hill just
east of the residence of Walter Smith
has also been cut down several feet
and, a big fill been made at the bot
tom. The work on these hills was
in charge of A. j. Fulton, an ex-
perienced road worker, and many
of the farmers out in that section
donated both money and labor to fix
these hills. Good roads are coming
rapidly and permanent improvements
ike these are what count.

! Horse Thief in Jail.

Arthur Fowler, young man about
% or "a years of age, is in Jail, being
charged with stealing a team at La
moni last Friday night, and his pre-
iminary examination is set for July
9th, before Justice Robert Turner,
at Lamont.
Fowler lives south of Lamont
across the line in Harrison county,
Missouri, and it is claimed he took
"a team and buggy owned by A. K.
and Harley Shackleton, who also
live in Harrison county, Missouri,
from the hitchrack at the rear of B.
D. Fleets store in Lamont last Fri
day evening. Mr.. Fleet and others
saw the young man drive away with
the team and when the owners dis
covered their loss the telephone was
used all over that part of the coun-
try, and Saturday morning the team
was located two miles south of Mt.
Ayr, where it had been left by Fow-
ler, who had walked to Mt. Ayr,
where he was arrested soon after.
Sheriff Andrew and county attorney
Sharp went to Lamont Saturday af-
ternoon in an auto, where they were
met by sheriff Tyrrell, of Mt. Ayr,
who had arrested Fowler, and the
young man was brought to Leon and
placed in Jail Saturday evening",

A Good Promotion for Tom Judd.

Many friends of Tom Judd, who
was for some time operator at the
Burlington depot in Leon, will be
pleased to hear of another good pro-
motion which he received last week.
Tom has been making rapid progress
since he went to york for the Great
Western a few years ago, and he is
climbing up the ladder of success at
rapid pace. He has been for some
time ticket agent at FIT. Dodge, but
is now district passenger agent with
headquarters at Des1 ,Moipes. The
Ft. Dodge Messenger, of June 21st,
says:
Tom Judd, the ticket agent of the
Chicago Great Western railroad has
been promoted to the position of dis
trict passenger agent of the Chicago
Great Western with headquarters at
Des Moines.
MIR. Judd is very we'll known
around the city not only by railroad
men, but by many patrons of the
road who have been impressed with
his courtesy and conscientious work.
His many friends will regret to have
him leave the city although they
must congratulate him on his good
fortune.
