There is on exhibition at this
office a seahorse, fresh from the
Atlantic ocean. Those persons
who have not been privileged to
visit the seashore and examine
the various animals that live in
the salt water are invited around
to see this sea monster.(?) It is
covered with rouch bonv nintoo
and the tail is prehensile or
curved like a monkey's. The <
male hasnn abdominal pouch in
which its eggs are hptched. 1
This monster was sent to this t
office by Mr. Lem Robinson, i
who took it from the stomach of j
a fish. It is full-grown and it
measures about 3 inches in <
length. Seahorse is the right <
name for it. 2

Mrs. J. V. Funderburk, of
King wood, W. Va., died a few
days ago, after a short illness.
Peritonitis caused her death.
Her husband is a son of Mr. and
Mrs. A. F. Funderburk of Page
land, who were notified of the
death bv telecram. but were un
able to attend the funeral.
Latest reports from the wounded
men in the hospital at Charlotte
say that both are doing
well. Both have had slight
peritonitis, but it is thought that
each will recover unless further
complications arise. Mr. Arant
is a comparatively young man
and his constitution is very
strong. Mr. Wallace, though
well past the fiftieth mile post, is
bearing up remarkably well.
Every day in this month has
been cold and the average temperature
for the first half of the
month is much below the average.
Fruit is being held back
by the cold and it is to be hoped
that the weather will allow the
trees to put on a heavy load of
fruit to aid in tiding over until
fall. We are already looking
forward to the time when huckleberries
and blackberries may
be had.
Mr. John T. Threatt, a prominent
farmer living about two
and one half miles east of town,
lost his dwelling and part of the

that the a

There was no id^urance.

he went home without having
