ber to the saw mill and in the near future will build a handsome house. By the time you see this in print the itemizer of this city will have entered upon his duty. We will try and give you more news this year than the year just past. A number of the young folks gathered at the home of 11. Krutzmanu on the last day of the old year and had a good enjoyable time.

Brandy berry preached at Craigville last Sunday. Judge Heller, of Decatur, was in town on business, Monday. Don’t forget the date of the Ideal Entertainers —January 20th.

This time it was seen at Joseph Dentner’s. It came in the darkness of night and left a ten-pound baby girl. Congratulations. The new baby’s name is Beatrice. A company of Salem people dropped in at the Methodist parsonage on New Year’s day. Most visitors go to get their dinner, but these visitors were peculiar in that they brought their’s along (safest plan sometimes.) The day was thoroughly enjoyed and will be remembered pleasantly by all present. Things have come to such a pass in Monroe that if a lady wishes to go dc/kn town to do a little trading she does it at the risk of insult, shame and humiliation. We hope somebody will be found soon (and we verily think they will) with nerve enough to put a quietus upon so much public intoxication. About the busiest place in Monroe last Monday was at the Z. O. Lewellen tile yard when W. S. Smith, in the absence of Mr. Lewellen, who is one of the petit jurors at Decatur, sold and loaded fifty-six wagon 1 jails of tile of various sizes. The Monroe tile factory is one of the most complete and up to date plants in the state, and dertainly deserves the liberal patronage which it receives. The liest holiday joke is the one told upon Prof. O. M. Werst and Rev. H. H. Hocker. The facts terselystated are these': While in company with a load of merry sleigh-riders on their way to the home of Miss Maude Thompson, last Tuesday evening, a horse and cutter badly managed by one the worse off for lager, etc., was encountered. WHh l><«artH brimming over with sympathy for the unfortunate, the young men took him and his rig back to town where they left him to straighten up. he telling them to take the horse and sleigh and follow their young friends to Thompson’s. This they aid. The evening passed very pleasantly, the young jieople filled the sleigh and were off, our two young friends making their way to the barn to get their borrowed outfit, when lo! it was gone. They say the walking back to town was not crowded. It seems that the drunken man in the hazy condition of his mind had appropriated another man’s rig and made off with it, finally very freely loaning it to the boys. The owner missing it, upon inquiry, ascertained its location and went after it. He got the rig and also got mad. Threats of arrest were made, some jieople got into tight quarters, but things have loosened up and the new year will very likely put things to rights. Later: Brother Hocker has left the country.
