We are sorry that she did not teach our school as she is a good teacher and gave general satisfaction in our school Inst winter. Our neighborhood was greatly excited over the disappearance of one of it's cit izens the last part of last, week. The fol lowing notice was posted in conspicuous places: "Lost: A small boy about the size of a man: barefooted with his dad's boots on. When last seen was going east: answers to almost any name you give him. No reward will be given for his re turn." Not hearing from him in due course of time a search party was organized and he was traced across the line into Ne braska, where rte had driven around aim lessly, tramping down about a secth-n of good grazing bind belonging to Les Crane. A man seeing him driving around in a circle wentout to him, when he inquired for a man by the name of a color applied to a horse. He did not know whether it was buy, brown, buck skin or cream. He was directed to Dunn's where he found the object of hi:, search, a fair haired damsel who consent ed to go riding with him. It was then thought that a sure enough elopement had been planned hut upon going to the home of (he fair lady it was found that they had just returned. The lady blush ingiy told the searchers that they bad just returned from a visit to friends in the valley No wonder the relatives are uneasy about this young man as he is absent minded for last winter ho hitched up to take his tiest girl riding, drove on" and forgot to take her along. After driving three miles he thought of her but it was too late then to make amends.
