HOG THIEVES VERY BUSY.

Thieves seem to have been quite busy
in Courtland Township within the past
month. John Poehler lost z hogs
averaging about 1872 pounds each and
Joseph Schiller, Jr. figures it out that
some one got away with 10 of his,
averaging in weight about 22O pounds
each. Poehler figures his loss at $11O
and Schiller's runs close to 5000 mark.
When Poehler sold his hogs week ago
Friday he counted them and found that
he was shy. Schiller heard about this
and got busy counting his herd and when
he got thru doing this he was wise to
the fact that 10 of his hogs had in some
manner mysteriously disappeared.
Whether the thieves that got the live
hogs are the same ones who paid visit
to Mrs. John Epke's farm house last
week between Monday evening and
Tuesday morning is not known. At
Epke's the thieves carried away % liver
sausages, about 100 pounds of pork and
some beef. The tracks could be traced
to the road and there they were lost
sight of. No suspicion attaches to any
one as yet, but everybody is keeping
q sharp lookout and the thieves better
beware if they do not want to be caught.

happened in the Town of Home near

was taken to Loretto Hospital where the
fracture was reduced. He is getting
along as well as can be expected under

And ceremony dotted her pride.

And general voice the happy night

Brought tidings Of salvation down.

Went roaring up the chimney wide.

Scrubbed till it shone. the day to grace,
Bore then upon its massive board
No mark to part the squire and lord.
Then came the merrymakers in
And carols roared with blithesome din.

It was hearty note and strong.

Old Christmas brought his sports again.

Twas Christmas told the merriest tale.
