has been so unsettled Martha didn' t
warsh on Monday thinking that the
weather would clear so she could
dry her clothes on the line. She
warshed on Thursday morning and
got her warsh out just when the
hurricane hit Bingville The clothes
she had put on the line was tore off
by the Whence of the breeze and
scattered all over Bingville. A red
undershirt belonging to her hus-
band, Jason Tucker, was found the
next day down to the lower edge of
Bingville, a quarter of a mile away,
where it had been bowed, and ia
son has lost one sock which he will
probably never get also one Pr. Of

drawers will they kindly return
same to Mrs. Tucker and receive
her heartfelt thanks. What good
is a undershirt to Jason with no
drawers to go with it?
The wind bowed down the sign
in front of Hen Weathersby's store,

at the injury.

THURSDAY. however, the sun has

ENOCH &
MATILDA!
Had a TurribIG Awful Experience
While Out Riding in a PuHg
TOther EVg---Like to Of Both
Got Busted

Young Enoch Simpllins Of Sorrow
Hollow, son of old Enoch Sinpkins OF
same place, and Miss Matilda Gookins
of this city had a narrer excape from
certain if not inevitable deth last Sat
uerday ev'g, witch they will long remem-
Der with horrer and loathing.
Enoch he driv into Bingvillc about g
p. N. in a new pungsand that sorl mare
of hisn, and he hitched in front of Ma
tilda's residence and went inside and
asst Matilda how she would like to take
a STAY ride and Matilda said she didn't
care, so he told her to come ahead then,
and Matilda she BUNDLED up and got in
the pung and they driv off together like
tarnashion out the pike with the STAY
bells jinglin merrily and making every
yung man in Bingville what hadn't no
horse and pung wish he had one.
It was after p. m. when Enoch and
Matilda approached Bingville again.
They had went almost nearly half way
to the county seat and back and had had
a turrible Mise ride. AS they was a.
comm down the hill west of town, how
ever, the pung pusht forrard agin the
mare and she skeerd and the next mint
she had tux the bit into her teeth and
was a-lickin out lords Bingville like a
streak of creased lightnin. When she
started to run Enoch had one arm
around Matilda, like blamed fool. and
bcfoar he could extricate hisself the
mare was beyont control. They come
into Bingville like the nashiou. Matilda
was hollerin for some kind hearted per-
son to save her and EI1och was saving
"Woah' to the mare in a loud COM
handing tone of voise, but the critter
didn't pay no attenshion, but KEEP right
On past Hen Weathersby's store. When
she got to the publick square the mare
turned around the corner lords Milan
Henderson's and in doing so the pung
upset and rolld eileen over, throwing ok
kupants about 20 feet into a snowbank
across the road from the P. o. Enoch
was the first to git on his feet and he
lokt around for Matilda and saw her
feet stickin outen drift and he grabt
holt OF her and pulld her out and she
was turrible skeerd, but not hurt none,
thank goodness.
When the pung upset the shafts broke
and the mare kickt loose and kept right
on runnin until she got to Sorrow Hol-
Ter and Enoch had to walk home.

EDDYTORIUL

There is an old addidge which
says that if March comes in like the
lOle Scratch it will go out like a
lamb. We hope this is true in all
prospects for the sake of the resi-
dents of this vicinity, because if
March goes out like she come in
chances is there won't be enough
of Bingville left to tell where she
stood. Even Dad Henderson, one
of our oldest inhabitants, can't new
er remember when there occurred
SIGH a gale and snow storm as ush-
eredi in the month of March last
Friday. 1t was the worst we have
had so far this winter or any other
winter for several winters, and we
hope it is worse than we will have
for many winters to come.

smart on perdicktin the weather,
being as he has perdickted it sew

anybody perdickt it several times
without hittin it once or twice p
Bige he went and perdickted that
March would come in this wear as
gentle as a lamb. When it went
and come in like old buck sheep
Bige says he got his signs mixed
and tried to crawl outen it, but his
name will remain simultaneous with
the name of lying prophet in
Bingville forevermore.
Last Friday morning about 10
a. m, the wind began to blow and
the first anybody noticed that it was
blowing any harder than common
was when it pulled the rooster
weather vane on Cy Hoskins' barn
UP by the roots and carried it over
into Widow SINNERS back lot.
Then our residents begin to wake
up to the Importance that a storm
was brewing. Along with the wind
come fine snow. When Eph Hig-
gins, our accommodating postmast-
er, left his residence to open up the
IP. 0. he carried with him UNI
brella, and Eph hadn't no more than
stepped outen the door until a gust
of wind turned that umbrella wrong
side out and re-cl1ed it outen Eph's
hands and hung it up on maple
tree in front of Deacon Butter
worth's residence, where it still
hangs. Eph said it was pretty hard
to lose umbrella which has been
in the family goin on seventeen
wears, but he bears his loss bravely.

CLEAR MILL WORKERS OF
ALL DYNAMITE BLAME

ALL - 4N1A1nA Il DAkaM6
Lawrence, Mass, Jan. H.
The mill workers of Lawrence
have been cleared of all connec-
ton with the dynamite found"
in the flooring beneath a gather
ing place used by a coterie of
strikers.
The person who clears them is
none other than Captain Proctor,
in charge of the state police on
duty here. Captain Proctor also
says that he knows who did put
the dynamite where the police
found" it.
"The strikers had nothing to
do with the dynamite" said Proc
tor today. ct was not difficult
to trace the explosive, nor'-and
he paused significantly" those
who placed it there. But it is
difficult to get evidence that will
convict" ~,
Strike Leader Joseph Ettor al
ready has made the direct charge
that the dynamite was planted"
by private detectives in the en-
ploy of the Wool Trust.
But although Captain Proctor
practically has substantiated that
charge, although Secretary Hol-
man has reported to Governor
Foss that the Wool Trust has
made conditions in Lawrence in
tolerable for human beings, al
Governor Foss' has sent a special
message to the legislature de-
handing that an investigation in
to these conditions be made, there
is no relief for the workers here.

and the, looms silent. The work
ers still are starving. Their
babies still are dying.
Even at this moment, the curbs
of the streets are lined with files
of militia in khaki, shouldering
rifles. The rifles are loaded with
ball cartridges. The bayonets
are fixed, and CLEAN in the sun
as the soldiers move
And these soldiers have orders
to use the ball cartridges on corr
mand from their officers. They
already have used the bayonets.
In the distance, drums are beat
ing, flies are screeching Yankee
Doodle. Fifteen thousand citi-
zens are marching. They are the
strikers.
And the most noticeable thing
about that parade of workers is
the use of the American flag. Half
the men and women in the parade
are carrying one. And they carry
it reverently, as a thing they
loved.
AS the parade passes the SOL
diers, the rifles are lowered from
the mems shoulders, and the bay
onets pointed directly at the pro-
cession in the street.
A strange sight, surely! Men
in the uniform of American SOL
diers with their rifles pointed at
the American flag!.
And the pity of, it is, that those
soldiers are nearly all weavers.
They are the fathers, brothers,
sweethearts, of the men and wo--

SHOULD AVOID
HOLIDAY FIRES


Special precautions should be TAX
en- Ia avoid fires during the holiday
season." said chief Joseph Trudell OF
the Red Jacket department today. THE
records for several years past SHOW
that almost Invariably there are more
fires I'm the copper country during the
Holiday season than any other time,
which In themselves suggest the need
of special precautions To prevent small
blazes
Probably the biggest cause of fires
al this season is the inhamsble ma
ture of the various substances used
for decorative purposes" continued
Mr. Trudell Even when Christmas
trees are fresh, ID is not hard TO ignite
them and after they have remained In
doors for few days, the needles and
bark thoroughly drying, they become
very infiammable. Then too cotton hat
ten, paper and similar substances are
used for decorating the Christmas
trees These increase the danger and
the climax comes when candles, with
an open flame, are used 10 light the
Tree"
Chief Trudell urges that every resi-
dent of Calumet take steps 10 prevent
Christmas fires. No infamma BILE ma
terial should be used for decorative
purposes he states and no Christmas
tree that is illuminated should be left
beyond observation. The handling Of
the decorations by children should be
discouraged or prohibited. Mr.. Tru-
cell would like Ia see this holiday
season free from fires,
