The leading question of the day among the young ladies of Kniman is, Who will capture the widower? We understand that J. A. Hixon will open a large hardware store in a few days in the room formerly occupied by Ike Fisher’s barber shoji. Mrs. Ella Fisher has ciosed out he» dressmaking establishment on account of trade, and wil! engage in the poultry business. She has a very choice stock of red Wyandots. The ladies’ aid society met last Thursday afternoon but was very poorly attended. Unless there is something done to revive this work they will be compelled to disband. The few remaining workers have made arrangements to give a graphophone entertainment Saturday eve, May 4th, for the benefit of themuch-talked-of church which they expect to help build in the near future. Everybody is cordially invited to attend.
