There are number of slippery

ing in front of whose business place
he fell, to place the man upon his
feet-and he was not intoxicated
either.

made a dash up Grand avenue.
Painter saw them going, and in his
excitement leaped nimbly over a rad

With the blood squirting from the
wounds in his head he never halted
until he came up with the team
which had been stopped in front OF
Zaller's liquor store. None of the
wounds were serious.-GForest City

anything that would injuFe the party
and the chances of a Wayne county
man in the future. The fact is, that
the Democratic-Keystone combina-
tion gave Wayne very little consider
