Some of the parlies residing in the vicinity o where one of the families live llrst reported the matter to the chief of police, who informed Mr Taylor, the county prosecutor and he at once had the children brought in to be Questioned. The boy has occasioned a great dea of trouble to he authorities and the officers of the school, as he seems of a very depraved nature and has made a great deal of trouble for the teachers at the school where he has been going. The little girl is a very nice child and was undoubtedlv made the victim of the older boy. The county attorney, after hearing the facts in the case and the in different statements of the parents, decided, on account of the tender years of the children to give them another chance ant: opportunity for the parents to see what they can do to prevent further trouble. It is to be hoped that the children can be learned a lesson that will show them the end that their actions are likely to lead to. ENTERTAINS IN THE HONOR OF MRS. J. A.

We bought the Golding Stock and agreed to remodel the building in a certain time. We started to do the work, but found our self so crowded that the carpenter could not get around at all. The Variety Store Stock needs no comment as it is well known to everyone who trades here for size and variety, but the unfortunate physical condition of Mr. Golding kept him from keeping up the place as he would like to, and therefore sacrifices the stock to us at 45c on the SI, and we will place it on sale at the same rate. To make this sale a good one we have moved the balance of the Sample Store Stock here and the two stocks together will give you a chance to satisfy all your wants for one-third what you would have to pay otherwise. lT So come, and don't be late, as we must reduce this stock if not close it out altogether ;A Few of our Collosal Bargains MRS.
