L. D. Eastman made a business
trip to Chicago and Milwaukee, re-
turning home on Sunday. He went
to see about securing a number Of car
loads of coal and was successful in
his quest. Lancaster coal dealers have
been fortunate enough to get what
coal has been necessary to supply all
demands, so far, but say it is going to
be scarce and dearer later on. In
many towns dealers have been unable
to secure anywhere near enough to
supply their calls.
An adjourned term of the circuit
court had been set for last Wednesday,

which the plaintiff seeks to compel
the town board of Hazel Green town
ship to open a highway there, and he
seems likely to succeed in his conten-
tion. Elsie Prster was granted a
divorce from John w. Prater.
