Last Sunday it was quite amusing- to see the stragglers coming home from Paxton wncrc they had gone to work on the railroad. The men say quite a number quit the work Saturday, there not being enough in it when everything was taken into consideration. Silas Thompson is quite sick and did not return with the others. Henry Clay Kobbius made a trip to the county scat Monday. Clay sayB il was an ordinary errand but the more knowing suspect it may mean something more.

During the past week the weath er could not have been better for corn and potatoes but the grass hoppers have been working stead ily on the corn and a great many fields are beyond redemption. Co pious rains have been coming this way and if it had not been for the hoppers a splendid corn crop would have gladdened the heart of the husbandman. But grass- lnjppweruever troublesome. here before and the visitation by them this season may never be re peated. J. S. Robbiue and P. L. Harper drove to the county seat Friday evening. Merton Seaton was thrown from a buckboard the other day and as a result has a severe gash on one leg. lid Nicolson started to Paxton Monday to work on the railroad. Mrs. 15. A. Braiiifjrd met with what might have been a very ser ious accident last week. Her horse, which was tied in front of Mr. Lipsup's house, became fright ened at a goat and broke loose falling backward in the harness and jerking Mrs. Braninrd down in such a manner as to endanger her life from the frightened struggles of the animal. The horse was finally untangled' No serious mis hap resulted from the melee.
