Dr. Fuhnore, and went ! in to New York Saturday. ? The presence of a number of armed men who were searching fori | Die assailants of Miss Bhodenker- !| he-i gave our town quite a warlike , appearance. Those of our citizens who could get oil'did not wait f?>r a ; second invitation to join in tlie j chase. The was general rejoicing i when the hrutcs were captured.

This t would be a great improvement, on . < the service. The late afternoon is j I tile proper time for truck to leave ; t here, and not in the morning. The 1 time between Luke City and Kieh-jt mond is about ten hours. There- j i : fore, stuff leaving here at (J o'clock j ( in toe afternoon would reach ltlch- 1 mond about 4 the next morning, and would go on the early inorni-ag's market. Dispensary Constable Alsbrook was looking around this neighborhood several davs last week and i this, and ht* found some liquor, too. " Three jugs were seized at Seranton i and one hire, but the one found , v!iere was released after satisfactory evidence that it was ordered 'for i legitimate purj>oses was produced. ( If some of the pocket dispensers don't keep a mighty sharp weather : eye something besides liquor will , be seized. II. Ci.

I Some lime ago you were kind I jnougli to allow iiic lo discuss, :iu(-grass though the columns ol! four paper.
