While one counts 100 they must all blind their eyes, At the end of the counting the players all hunt for the hider As soon as one discovers his hiding place he must squeeze ill and hide there too.

ADMITS THAT he WAS
sOUSED TO THE GUARDS
An Action at Law In Which Tom Carey
Makes Charges Against Louis
RAIDER
From Wednesdays Daily.

From Wednesdays Daily.
All because he INDUCED too freely
in the contnets of the flowing bowl,
Tom Carey of Mapletoh is suing
Louis RAIDER, also of Mapleton for
$50, which he claims Mr.. RAIDER Sc
cured from him whom he was too
much intoxicated to know what he
was doing. Carey alleges in the
complaint that RAIDER got him drunk
and extracted the $50 from him by
using undue influence.
RAIDER claims that Carey agreed to
buy thirty pigs from him for ten
cents a pound, the pigs to be deliv-
cred in two or three days after the
bargain was made, and that the $50
was paid to RAIDER to bind the bar
gain. When Mr. RAIDER went to see
why Mr.. Carey did not call for the
pigs, he says that Mr. Carey dcclar-
ed that he did not intend to buy
them. Mr.. RAIDER now thinks that
the reason Mr. Carey backed out OF
the bargain is because he heard
that the hog. cholera was getting
among the hogs in this part of the
state and did not want to buy the
hogs for that reason, all of which is
alleged in the complaint.
H. M. Berry of Mapleton is the
plaintiffs attorney and S. b. Wilson
is attorney for the defendant.
