EDDYTORIUL

We take our pen in hand this
suspicious occashion to inscrlbe for
the Bugle with patriotic devotion a
eddytoriul betting the day and
date of yesterday-in other words,
we be agoing to pay a tribnte to a
man who for love of his country,
for being a good citizen, brave
man in war, a politisflion and a
statesman, reminds US good cal of
ourselfs.
We refer to G. Washington, the
father of his country and the 1st
President of the u. S. We wouldn't
consider we had did our duty I'M
less we wrote somethink for this
issue about G. Washington, whose
birthday was yesterday. Last night
at Hen Weathersby's store we men-
shioned casual that we was going
to write a eddytoriul for this weeks
Bugde on G. Washington, when
Ranse Snyder ups and says GIVE
lived in this neighborhood going on
SO year and I'll be fingered if l
ever heered of anybody in the place
named Washington" which only
goes to show how turrible ignorunt
Ranse is. He ort to be ashamed of
hisself not to know who George
Washington was, but we persoom
there is others as ignorant as Ranse
in this town if they'd only admit it.
G. Washington was 1st in war,
1st in peace and 1st in the hearts of
his countrynen. George is the man
who crossed the Delaware river one
dark, stormy night when the river
was full of floating ice & George
skates so dull he had turrible time
gettin acrost at all.
We could give further historic
fackts concerning G. Washington if
we could only think of EN- and had
space to devote to same. But we
consider we have did Our duty by
these few factts which we have

town constable, desires Us to say that
he has got a fresh clew to the fends
in human form who have been robbing
hen roosts in Bingville of late and
hopes soon to run the dastards to

Battil for Bige
That's What He Got From a Very
Onexpeckted SOurse-Full
PartiCkIsrS Below

Bige Barker, one of Our most re-
SPECIFIED townsmen, met with Pc
culiar and unexpected axident on last
Thursday. Last spring the mother OF
one of Bige's lambs died, and so he
took the lamb into the house TO 6rng
it I'D by hand, and in time it devel-
oped into a ram sheep very tame ana
always in somebody's road.
This pet ram sheep would follow
Bige around most everywhere 1T
was a common sight to see it follow
ing him down Main street to the z.
o. when Bige went for the mail. But
the ram sheep never showed its nasty
disposishion until last Friday morn
ing.
On said morning Bige went out to
the wood heap back of his house to
carry an arrful of wood into the
kitchen for his wife, and while Bige
was STOPPING over, picking up the
wood the sheep struck from the rear,
butting Bige clean over the wood pile
and spilling all the wood he had IN
his arms and injuring his feelings con-
siderable.
1t was turribie shock to Bige, be-
ing as he wasn't thinking of such
thing. Bige hadn't any more than got
on his feet until the ram sheep hit
him again in the same place as pre-
vious, but before it could escape Bige
grabbed it by the horns and held it
firmly and kicked it until his feet
ached. Then instead of letting the
ram sheep loose he drug it to the
kitchen door and letting go of It
suddenly jumped inside and slammed
the door shut. Since then Bige has
hardly dared to venture outen the
house.
Bige says any person desiring to
purchase ram sheep, either for pet
or for mutton, will do well to call
on him, being as he has one which he
will sell cheap and no questshions
asked or answered.
