C. EARL DUVALL. Walter Hughes left this morning for his home near Frankfort, S. Dak., where his father, Ephraim Hughes, moved last year. He was accompanied by hjs aged grandmother, who has bean at the county farm for several months. Walter came back to Jasper county the first of January. He reports that his father is quite well pleased there and that they had a very good crop last year. A D. Stephenson, formerly of Parr, who has been living at Upland the past winter, arrived here yesterday evening to make preparations for his removal to Florence, Mont., where his brother, Elmer E. Stephenson, lives. Fred went to Parr this morning and will at once pack and ship his household effects. Elmer lives on a fruit farm in the Bitter Root valley, south of Missoula, and not a great distance from Mr. and Mrs. Ed F. Mills. Alfred will work with his brother, whose apple orchard is new. His baby has been quite sick lately with pneumonia and this fact occasioned some delay, in his removal.

Attorney Frank Foltz lost a pig and advertised it in the Republican and the Democrat. The pig wandered out to Anton Truly’s farm north of town. The pig was brought up with republican influences but went democratic and halted at the only house in the entire section of the country that did not have the Republican in it. Thus, the Democrat got credit for finding the pig. Well, we are not surprised that any well treated pig that would break out of a pen where it had a good bed and three square meals a day would end up at a democratic house. If the pig had been in its right mind it would never have left home in the first place. John and Charles Day, of Kansas, who were called to’ Laporte by the death of their brother, George Day. are spending a few days In Rensselaer visiting their brother, William S. Day. They lived in Jasper county prior to going to Kansas many years ago. John Day went, to Kingman in 1878. At that time there were only three houses there and the country was all wild and there was no town of any consequence nearer than Wichita, 45 miles east. There were a good many hardships for the pioneers of the early days but those who stuck to it reaping the reward of their perseverance. Mr. Day lives in town, but owns a good farm and is quite extensively engaged in the stock business. Charles Day lives on a farm near Kingman and is also sharing the success that is the fortune of the persevering pioneer. The brothers will remain here until Monday, visiting the scenes of their boyhood and having a good visit with relatives and old friends. Collegian, Class A and Frat clothes now on display in blue serges, fancy, and plain, grays, tans, browns and all the latest shades and styles. C. EARL DUVALL.
