Hiram'S Toothache

Hiram Cranky had a turrib1e tooth
ache last Monday. 1t happened that
Doc Livermore was over Snake Bend
way seeing what he could do to sick
horse. so Hi had to suffer on In silence.
At last the ache became so bad that Hi
got desprit, so to speak, and decided he
would make a effort to pull the tooth
hisself He took f1atiron which
weighed about pounds and to this flat
iron he tied a piece of fodder Irvine
about IS feet long. The other end he
tied around the tooth.
Then he opened the front door into
the street, and standing back in the hail,
shet his eyes, held his breath and throwd
the flatiron out at the door as hard as
he could throw. It jerked out the tooth
all right, but the flatiron hit Seth Dew
berry, our lior-hearted town constable,
who happened to be passing at the time
and like to have knocked him insensible.
Soon as Seth recovered hisself he was
going to place Hi under rest for as
sault & battery. but Hi apologized and
explained and Seth let him go, but told
him to be careful where he throwed his
flatirons after that, toothache or no
tootl1acl1e.
LATER-Just as we go to press we
find that Hiram pulled the wrong tooth.

There was a good cal of specu-
fashion in Bingville prior to yes
terday as to whether March would
come in like a lion or lamb but
there amt no further specu1ashion
today being as everybody in Bing-
vile and for miles around knows
that March come in like a lion.
There is a old saying that if
March comes in like a lion it will
go out like lamb and if it comes
in like a lamb it will go out vice
versa and we ca1kilates we express
the general sentiment of this COM
rnunity when we say we will be
turrible glad to have March go out
some gent1er than she come in.
Old Dad Henderson who is one
of our most aged and respeckted
citizens and also thinks he is tur-
rible expert weather profet per-
dickted that March would come in
like a lamb. Them as have kept
track of Dads processes have OBJ
served that he misses it a good cal
more oftener than he hits it and its
the general opinion that when Dad
hits it its a axident.
AS soon as March 1st began yes
terday morning at midnight it
turned cold till most folks of Bing-
vile had to git up and hunt around
for more bedclothes to keep from
freezin to deth. When daylight
come the wind begin to blow most
hard enough to blow the hair often
a persons head as a result of
which people stuck purity close in
doors. In the p. m. it begin to
snow and showed steady till it was
2 #. deep deep in some places and
4 #. deep in others where it was
drifted. Old Dad Henderson who
perdickted how gentle March
would come in amt got much to
say how it did come in, and if you
want to git Dad all riled up all you
have to do is to ask him how next
March is comm in & goin out

weather has been, is now and will

Barrel of Vinegar Gone

Sine Gookins had the hoops to bust
often a bari of vinegar one night last
week, and before he l1nowed it the vine
gar had all escaped. Jake Gookins,
Shines brother, who runs a cooper shop
here, made the barrel for Sine, but
Slime says it's a alfred poor job of
coopering even if Jake is his brother.
This vinegar represents the loss of
considerable money, being as vinegar is
quite scarce in our midst at present. The
reason for this Is that most people who
made cider last fall drunk it up while it
was hard and it didn't have no chance
to go back to vinegar. AS a rule hard
cider is preferred to vinegar in this
locality

Fell Into the Ink

Little A1phonso Smith, the eight year
old son of Peter Smith, one of our most
respeckted citizens, while playing around
the Bug1e office last Thursday, had the
misfortune to fall into our key of prin-
ter's ink. AS editor & prop. of the Bing-
vile Bug1e we pulled him outen the ink
and made him stand in dishpan while
we scraped all the ink which we could
in order to save same. We may have
scraped little too bard in some spots,
but we didn't feel that we could afford
to lose TIE ink. Printers ink looks bet
ter in the Bugle than it does on boy.

COMMISSIONERS

MEET TOMORROW
JOINT SESSION ON COUNTY LINE
AFFAIRS TO BE HELD AT
GoLDFIELD.

County Commissioners from Nye,
Mineral and Esmeralda counties will
hold a session at Goldfield tomorrow
for the purpose of discussing the
proposition of running new survey
TO determine the correct boundary
lines of Nye and Esmeralda counties.
The Nye commissioners were visited
by Commissioner Borlan Of Esmer-
aida and the project was briefly dis
cussed.
The last legislature authorized the
commissioners of the two counties
to authorize survey to properly
define the county boundaries, the ex-
pense to be divided. The controversy
over the boundary in the cicinity OF
Tonopah was responsible for the
legislative action. 1t is contended
that the proper line runs several
miles west of Tonopah and it is for
the purpose of determining the cor
rect situation that the new line will
be mapped out,
1t is expected that a surveying
party will take the field within a few
weeks to accomplish the work au
thorized.
