Clark Co. in Good health;
BuryiDs Business a Failure

Atlanta, Ca. Oct. II -Bailif
Cook, of Athens, Ca, has been
building up a reputation for levy
ing on strange bits of property,
but he eclipsed himself this week.
Up to then it was believed that
he held the record by Selling and
hauling to the courthouse an
empty chicken coop, but his latest
has that beaten a block.
This week Bailiff Cook seized
upon twenty-five collins, assorted
sizes, and all, happily, empty,
the property of an undertaken
whose hearse recently was seized
and sold by Mr.. Cook. The cof-
fins were drayed to the court
house and stored in the basement
until the day of legal sale, when
anyone desiring a casket can buy
it at action and keep it until
needed, which day is bound to
come.
Clark county is rather pluming
herself on one business failure
that of the undertaken involved.
She considers it a proof that
Clark is so healthy that the bury
ing business is playing out.
