Henry's Bondsmen.
All Is not lovely in the household of Harrison. There is an eruption threatened in the Montgomery wing of the family, all on account of the erratic business methods of one of the flock, ex-Trustee S. Frank Henry. This week Trustee Hartman brought suit against the bondsmen of Mr. Henry to recover the amount of that gentleman's shortage, some $8,700. Thursday these bondsmen met to effect a settlement. Here it was found that unless something was done the entire loss would fall on the shoulders of four of them, Castor, Coleman, Vancleave and Enoch. Mike Kelley didn't seem to possess anything that could be turned into collateral Jim Scott had mortgaged his property to its full value, and Joe Grubb did'nt have anything to begin with. These four bondBmen at once appealed to Grubb. He promised to pay his $1,350 at the rate of $50 per month, and in order to secure them against loss by death had his life insured for $1,000 payable to them. They next turned their guns on Jim Scott, and in him found a tartar. He declared that if he was forced to pay his share he would have Henry arrested for embezzlement This, he thought, would scare Grubb into a full settlement as he would necessarily be in the same boat witli Henry. On the other hand these bondsmen declare that unless Scott settles up within a reasonable time they will take an execution on his property and sell it for him. Mr. Scott thinks that Henry has played a trick on them to save his residence property by sending his wife away to keep her from deeding it over to help pay the shortage.
He also says that if Henry and Grubb were arretted they would pay up rather than go to jail. Mr. Scott is determined to contest it to the bitter end

The Election Booths.
As it is known to every one the booths for election purposes wero purchased last week by the county commissioners of a firm at Lafayette for the sum of $413.50, The coffin factory of this city offered to furnish them for $400, but Michael Price, who thoroughly controls the other two members of the board, ordered otherwise-and it was so done. The factory would have furnished exactly the same style of booth. Besides paying the extra cost the commissioners spent a day, car fare and board, amounting to over $30, in going to Lafayette to inspect the booths. This added to the cost of them over the coffin factory rates, make the booths cost nearly $50 more than if constructed at home by home mechanics. Said one of the factory employees, a republican too, "Old Price can now go to Lafayette for his votes. Several of us expect to spot him in
November. If there was.any economy or sense in buying those booths at Lafayette I would not say a word."
Unsuccessful Attempt at Suicide. Mr. S. P. Graham, wife of Insurance Agent Graham, was found in an unconscious condition at her home on South Green street at a late hour last Monday night by Iter neighbors. Her condition showed every evidence of having taken poison and aid was at once summoned and restoration applied. Dr. Jones was called and soon pronounced the lady out of danger. Mr. Graham then said that she had taken eight doses of morphine with suicidal intent. This was a sufficient quantity of that deadly drug to have killed a horse and it is quite probable that the doses were raapnified by her condition, Tha lady has been in poor health for some time and it is probable that she took the poison while laboring under a temporary alteration of the mind. As it was she had a very close call an will hardlv care t« repeat the experiment.
Trouble In Shannondale.
Henry White is the proprietor of a gin mill in the beautiful little village of Shannondale. Saturday night some of the denizens loaded themselves with White's bad whiskey aud proceeded to raise hades in the neigh borhood. To this the good people of the town tooK exceptions and came to this city and had warrants issued for the arrest of the offenders. Officer Brothers served the warranls and as a result Thursday morning was set apart by the mayor to hear the cases. The charge against White for keeping a disorderly eouse was dismissed. •James Gallaway was then tried for conduct unbecoming a gentleman and was acquitted.
After the result of this the other cases were dismissed.
Canary's Cussedness.
One day last week Willis Canary and wife engaged in a little fisticuff near the junction in which the female annex of the family was knocked out in the first round. While waiting for her to come around for the second round Willis gobbled their child and skipped for other pastures. Last Monday Mrs. Canary complained to the police and swore out a warrant for the arrest of her miscreant husband on a charge of assault and battery. Marshall Ensmmger went to Camden on Tuesday aud returned in the evening with Willis in tow.
He was arraigned before Mayor Oarr and fined $14.50.
