Rev. j. NJ. Rogers filled his appoint
ment Saturday and Sunday at the Bap-
fist church. Several who pay but
slight attention to pulpit announce
ments, had forgotten the services an
nOunced. failed to attend, and by
advising others to do so, the crowds
were not as large as common.
Some thoughtless person, evidently
of immature mind, not able to discern
between harmless Halloween pastime
and reckless, criminal disre gard for the
rights of others, on Friday night last.
anticipating the occasion twenty-four
hours previous to schedule time, cut
several mischievious capers. The
principal sufferer from their pranks
was Mr.. J. M. Cress. A gate to his
pasture fronting the pike was carried
off and placed in Mr.. w. H. Cummins
scales lot. A large drove of cattle
brought in the day before from qnite q
distance, escaped in the night anC
wandered off. Late Saturday he FOUND
them near Ottenheim. AS Mr.. Cress
was returning with the cattle. he called
for his wife and children. who were
visiting in Preachersville. Seeing the
gate he got out of the buggy and car.
ried the gate back in its place a short
distance while his wife drove on aheaC
through this open gate and the buggy
wheel struck one of the posts throwing
Mrs. Cress and the baby out. The
buggy wheels ran over the good woms 7
and narrowly missed the baby. Luckily
they both escaped with only minol
bruises, but had a narrow escape
Then besides with all the trouble t.
get his cattle back together again, the
car for their shipment had to stand still
on the tracks, but costing good money
in the meantime. Work. expense. ant
nearly an accident, all from a thought
less boyish prank.
