Mr. Mellor’s barn is located nearly on the site of the old Ward barn which was recently burned. The bain, though in use, is not yet complete, the painting being yet to be done and some finishing inside. Mr. Mellor has equip ped his barn with new buggies, harnesss and other livery attire, making a fine outfit. Mr. Raker’s barn is on the old Potter House site and is substantial and commodious. It will hold some fifty head of horses and contain hay enough to feed them one month.

The last month of her visit she spent in New York and was an eye-witness of the land and naval parade given in honor of the return of Admiral Dewey. She says it was a grand, impressive sight to see the marines match through the beauti fully decorated streets of New York to the music of the bands and the cheers of the hundreds of thousands who had as sembled to bid them welcome. It must have been a grand sight, and Mrs. Marsh was fortunatein being able to witness it.

Miss Claudia Blair and Harry P.* Dowling were married at the home of the bride, Eldorado Springs, Mo., Tues day, October 3 It was quite a surprise to the people of North Bend when Ihe young couple arrived home Saturday evening and the anuoucement was made that they were married, although there were a few who surmised that when Harry went away the week before that he was out on a mission that he did not c»re to have hearlded about until the knot hud been tied. The bride is well known to a goodly number of North Bend people, as she spent much of the time some seven years ago in this city with her aunt, Mrs. II. I. Adams, and made tne acquaintance of a large circle of friends. The groom needs no in troduction to the people of North Bend. Born and raised here he has always been a favorite among the young men of the community. During the past few years Harry has not been at home very much. From the time he entered the State University, his time has been occupied with study and holding res ponsible position as clerk in different capacity, and at the present time is the assistant cashier of the Bank of North Bend. This couple will be quits an ad dition to the society of the cilv, and we join in extending to them congratula tions and wishes that their new state in lift- will In- one <>t joy and prosperity.— North Bend Eagle. Ex-Governor Crounse arrived in the ci'y yesterday morning from the‘west, and after spending the day visiting old time friends, addressed a large and en thusiastic audience at the court-house last night. The meeting was called to order by H. II. Dickson, who, after a few words of introductory, presented Judge Alder, of Ainsworth, one of the republican candidates for district judge, who arrived in the city during the after noon. Judge Alder spoke only for a few moments, but long enough to convince the voters present that he was compe tent and qualified to deliver a good address. During the course of his few remarks lie pnid an eloquent and Justly merited compliment to Judge Kinkaid, which was loudly applauded Ex Governor C'rounse who was to make the address of the evening was then presented and he received an ova tion as he rose from his chair and step ped to the front of the rostrum. He opened his address by relating an amus ing incedcnt that occurred many years ago, the central figures of which were the governor of Missouri and the Prince of Wales. This at once put him on au easy footing with his auditora and he mmediately launched oil into a thorough and learned discussion of political issues. lie first took up the McKinley tariff bill and showed his audience the prosperous condition of the country while that tariff was in operation. He then came to the time when democracy secured control of the executive and legislative branch of the government and repealed the McKinley bill. After the repeal it was round that revenue was necessary to defray the expenses of the government anil the Mills bill was introduced and passed by the democrats, it being a modification of the McKinley bill. The speaker named a few articles upon which the democrats greatly reduced the tariff, it being apparent that the reduction was not of any benefit to the {poorer classes. Governor Crounso then took up the question of the war with Spain and traced it through the various stages of development to the present time show ing clearly to the unbiased minds that tho administration could not do other wise than maintain its present course in the Philippines and be faithful to his country. His remarks upon this ques tion was an eye-opener to many present, as he put the matter before them in a different light than it had oyer been presented before, clearly showing them the justness of the policy pursued. The governor had many friends in O’Neill and by his address made many new ones, and it is believed that his epeech was beneficial to the party in this sec tion. A fellow by the name of Clark tried to drink up all the good and bad whiskey in O’Neill the other day and thereby got himself into trouble which might have gone seriously for him. Shortly after six o’clock Monday even ing Clark, whose parents live near Page, went into the livery barn of P. D. and J. F. Mullen and led off out the back door a stallion belonging to the firm. The barn hand saw Clark lead the horse nwav, but thought perhaps Mr. Mullen had sold him. When Mr. Mullen returned about 7 o’clock,, the barn man asked him what he got for the stallion. Mullen took the question as a joke and though being told that the horse had been led away did not take it seriously. Later in the evening he hnppened in the back end of the barn when he noticed that the stall occupied by the stallion was empty. A posse of men were got together and started in persuit of Clark, who was overtaken down near the Wynn place, only a mile out ottown. Clark had been some two horse traveling one mile. He dropped his hold on the horse when his persuers came up and made for a corn field. The hosre was returned safely to bis stall anil Clark on the morrow came into town, when Marshal Uorriskey arrested him. Mrs. Clark, mother of the chap in custody, came up to O'Neill and plead for the release of her erring son. Young Clark appeared slightly dement ed and it was thought best to release him. During the winter of 1897 Mr. James Ileeii, one of the leading citizens and merchants of Clay, Clay county, W. V., struck his leg against a cake of ice in such a manner as to bruise it severely. It became very much swolen and pained Lira so badly that he could not walk without the aid of crutches. lie was treated by pliysicinns, also used several kinds of liniment and two and a half gallons of whiskey in bathing it, but nothing gave any relief until he began using Chamberlain’s Pain Ilalm. This brought almost a complete cure in a week’s time and he believes that had he not used this remedy his leg would have had to lie amputated amputated.
