The Chautauqua here last week was fairly well attended, but the receipts did not pay expenses and the guarantors were forced to fork up a right good little sum. No contract was signed for next season. The cold last week nearly killed all the turnips, cabbage plants and collards in this section, and these vegetables look worse now than any Republican looked on Friday after the elec tion.

He put a few words in the business local column last week, sold his mule and had calls for more. Why don't you spend a dime or two and make money? "That street down that way is ridiculous,'' said a prominent citizen Monday pointing at east McGregor street. "It is worse than the roads out in the country. There are holes there a man can't dodge, and they are liable to break a spring or tear up something," he continued. We hope this will serve to call the attention of the town author ities to this matter. Miss Alline Nelson, sister of Mayor R, H. Nelson, was mar ried yesterday afternoon to Mr, Ward Laney, son of Mrs, Ida Lanev of Buford township. The marriage w.is at the home of the bride's fat'...:, M.. J. C.

Ih his younger days he was a public school teacher, and his life was one of service to his fellowman and to his Maker. Charlie, the 15 year old son of Mr. and Mrs. H. L. Woodard, of Mt. Croghan, accidentally shot and killed himself last Wednesday morning about 11 o'clock, and was found by his father in the afternoon at 2 o'clock. It is not known just how the accident happened. He was out hunting and shooting, and little notice was given the shot that caused his death. He was a good boy and loved by all his acquaintances. He was always jovial and seemed to love everybody.
