There was a caller at the Smoke House last evening who during the latter part of the 1.-O. league season last year was the most universally hated man by Bluffton people that ever gained the wrath of a city. The visitor was Gardner, the umpire who filched two games from our team on the Quaker City diamond and later joined the Richmond club as an outfielder. But base ball sore spots are not long cherished, and Gardner was received by a number of the most rabid of the 1907 fans as if he were an old friend, and the incident at Richmond, when the umpire was forced to whip half the Bluffton team Io preserve order, was recalled with amusement. —Bluffton Banner. Almond Shaffer, living along the Chicago & Erie railroad, near Bobo, is preparing to serve notice on the railroad company asking it to construct the right-of-way fence between the railroad and his land, the same to be built before April 10 or he would build the fence at their expense. This will probably mean the filing of a suit by him against the company for the costs of building the fence. Esais Daily, a farmer living east along the railway, had a similar experience some time ago. He gave the railroad notice to build the fence, but it was neglected. He then built it ‘and brought suit against the company for the costs, which it paid and which, including attorney’s fees, amounted to more than $250. Peterson & Moran of Decatur are the attorneys preparing , the notice. —Huntington Democrat.
