and Bill Yates, who is Bills boon COM
panion in debotch, both made a trip to
the Co. seat last Satterday night and
returned to Bingville in the evg. in a
riotous state of intoxicashion disgrace
full to behold. They walked up and
down Main st. with their arms around
each others necks singing songs and
hollering at the tops of their lungs.
Seth Dewberry. our lion hearted town
constable, was hunted for all over town
to arrest the two men, but couldn't be
found nowhere. After they had sobered
up the next day Seth turned up and
said he had been hunting down a desprit
gang of chicken thiefs over Sawridge
Mountain way and regretted that he had
not been here, being as he would have
clapped both men in Jail quicker than a

Mrs. Dewberry, however, inadvertent-

Dull In Docs Line

Doc Livermore, our human speshial-
ist & horse doctor, says there is not
as much sickness in our midst at pres
ent as he could wish for, but that he
hopes business will pick up some in the
near future. Doc says that heretofore
during very hot weather there has
usually been several cases in and about
Bingville of prominent citizens and 9TH
ers being overcome by the heat, which
has give him considerable to do, but
this yr. is an excepshion. If our edi-
toriul memry serves US correctly we
don't seem to have any recollecshion of
Bingville folks being overcome with the
heat in the past-it must of been some
thing else that Doc referred to. Shade
is too much in demand among Bing
Williams for them to ever be overcome
by the heat. Sunstroke in Bingville is
almost as skeerce as hyderofobia.

Ben Hot Under Collar

Ben Wade of Snake Bend called at
the Bugle office recently to inquire why
last weeks Bugle did not reach him.
Ben was purity hot under the collar
and talked in loud tone of voice that
all the neighbors heard, and said that
when he subscribed for a paper he ex-
pected to receive it reglar, or words to
that efeckt.
We told Ben that we didn't know the
reason why his Bugle didn't reach him
unless it was lost somewhere in trans
mishion. We tried to impress on him
that after we had folded and put a
wrapper on his Bugle and then wrote
his name on the wrapper in a plain
hand we had did our duty and angels
could do no more, and if his Bug1e
failed to reach him after that then it
wasn't out fault.
We also told Ben that we didn't
know the reason why since he has been
a reglar subscriber for the Bugle for
the past II yrs. and he had never paid
us a red cent neither, and he went
away threatening to stop his paper.
Very well, let him stop it. If he does
we may have something further to say
about his past in later copies of the
Bugle.

and he had MIXED three of the cows,
leaving old Brindle until the last, being

Wat was milking her she histed and
come down with her foot right on Watts
foot and kept it there, him hollering
and yelling for help as loud as he could
and pounding her with his fists and
trying to push her often him. but Wat
says she only stood there with almost
superhuman intelligence, as it were, on
his foot, peacefully chewing her cud
and switching off the flies. AS old
Brindle weighs probably 900 lbs, Watts
feelings can better be imagined than
described. After she had stood on his
foot for 2 or minits she got off and
Wat limped to the house. He now says
he is agoing to sell that cow and if he
can't do that he will give her away.

Hen wanted to charge Ranse for tho
sheet. He told Ranse that the regular

but being as it was him he would let
him have it for S cts. Ranse said he
already had the fly paper and didn't
want it and he'd be goshed to hemlocle
if he'd pay for 1t either. Hen ought to
be more careful where he leaves fly

EDDYTORIUL.

Blueberries is ripe and from al
accts. this is going to be the best
blueberry season in and about
Bingville which we have ever ex-
perienced. Reports from every di-
rection is TO the effect that blue
berries is thicker than fleas on a
dogs back.
Wes Woodruff, our expert hunt
er and trapper, took a trip up to
the top of Sawridge Mountain
tother day to pick up and bring
home some traps which he had set
here and there last fall and which
Wes amt had time to 60 after until
now being as he's been so turrible
drove up with one thing and an
other. Wes says that blueberries Is
so thick on the top of Sawridge
Mountain that its simply skanda-
lous. He says if he hadn't been
such a fool he would of took a
couple of pals along with him and
of picked the pals full of b1ueber-
ries to lug back home. Being as
he didn't have any pals, however,
Yves ct all the berries he could hold
but he overdone it and was sick
for two days as a result.
If Bingville folks had any gump-
ton they would pick blueberries
while they are ripe from sunrise. to
sunset as long as they last and sell
same at the Co. seat, thus earning
good pay in the sweat of their va
rious brows. Blueberries at the
Co. seat sometimes brings as high
as 10 cts. per qt. and anybody who
has any sprawl ort to be able to
pick Is or 20 qts. of blueberries
per day as thick as they be this yr.
But no-instid of picking blue
berries and becoming rich beyond
the fondest dreams of avarice, as
we might say, the leading citizens
of Bingville prefers to set around
in the shade and loaf their time
away while blueberries ripens on
the bushes and falls to the ground
and rots. Blueberries could be
made tremendous source of in
