Ben Smith and wife arrived here yeßterday to visit her relatives, the Slaughters, for a time. They have been living for the past year at ClarindA, lowa, although for the past few weeks they have been at Alexander, S. Dak., where Ben has had charge of some fine stock. The "Old Five Hundred Club” will be the guests tonight at Fate’s Model to a “stag” given by what was known after Its organization as the “New Five Hundred Club.” A banquet will be served and some of the local funny men will probably keep the participants from going to sleep or suffering with long faces.

Elmore Barce, of Fowler, son of Lyman Barce, of this county, has been appointed county attorney for Benton county. He succeeds B. B. Berry, who resigned.

During the past year he has bsen the attorney for practically all the gravel road petitioners in that county. Daniel H. Rucker, 98 years of age, and the oldest retired army officer in the United States, died yesterday in Washington. His daughter was the wife of Gen. Phil H.

He joined the army when 16 years of age, and his flrßt duty was with the First Dragons, stationed at Ft. Leavenworth, Kans. J. H. S. Ellis is a recent witness to the value of a classified ad. He had missed a stag-handled pocket knife which he valued 'very highly, and placed an advertisement in Thursday’s Republican. That evening his son, Jim, found the knife in the pocket of his bath robe. It pays to advertise. John Healy’s little daughter recovered her muff In the same manner; Harry Reed recovered a fur mitten; Earle recovered a camera and Judson Perkins a colt, all within the past week. For certain results try it yourself.
