Some of the members of the vaudeville company that were showing at the Lyric last week, got on a “toot" Saturday afternoon and Manager -O’Connor refused to let them show Saturday night. The splendid pictures made up for the lack of vaudeville. Uncle John Jordan had the misfortune of breaking both bones of his left leg this afternoon. He was helping drill a well on one of his lots in town when the chain that lifts the drill broke, throwing the heavy handle on his left leg, breaking both bones just above the ankle. The day President Lincoln was buried, T. K. Harmon planted a black walnut tree at the old Harmon place, opposite the Bartee farm, in commemoration of the event. The tree still stands and is from 12 to 15 inches through. Some of our patriotic citizens ought to see that the' tree is not destroyed and a slab erected with the history of the tree inscribed on it.
