NORTH UNION.

Mrs. Steel is on the sick list. Fine weather for corn husking. Paul Schultz was out buying bogs this week. Ernest Stibbie spent a few days in Chicago ibis week. Amel Schultz made a flying trip to Rensselaer Saturday. If you want a good job of ditching done, call on Dave Platt. Mr. and Mrs. Davis were visiting at Adolph Schultz’s Sunday. If you have any veal calves to sell give Dan Lakm a chance, he will pay the top prices. Fred Summers of Hammond, was out for a few days hunting this week. Al Keener of Louisville, is visiting friends and relatives in this neighborhood this week, Julius Schultz and David Platt of Rensselaer, attended the box supper at Aix Friday night. George Deorsch and Gust Schmitke of Hammond, were out hunting last week and got a fine lot of rabbits. A farmhouse on the Otis ranch, occupied by Bert Hannaway, was destroyed by fire at an early hour Sunday morning. The fire is supposed to have originated from a defective flue. The family escaped in scant attire, losing practically all their personal effects.
