BY OUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENTS.

Mary DeArmond; Treas., Laura Jones. Let all come out and assist the officers in making this the best organization of its kind in the county. The Editor of the News Review was the guest of your correspondent last Monday, The Editor was well pleased with the country here and spoke in the highest terms of the people. He was visibly excited when he saw the beautiful scenery that surrounds Dunn’s Bridge, in fact he became enthuisastic and began to prophecy that Dunn’s Bridge will become the most famous summer resort in the state. The Kouts baseball nine, which exists under the peculiar but appropriate name of "Onion Huskers,” met their Waterloo at Dunn’s Bridge last Sunday at the hands of the D. V. nine. They came over in high glee, under the false impression that they could easily vanquish their opponents, but when the smoke of battle arose, 20 to 4 in favor of D. V, met their wondering eyes. We wish to say that from now on the D. V, nine is going to play successlul games. We would advise the Kouts boys to change the name of their club for fear that at some critical time they might get the main part of their name in their eyes and ruin their eyesight. Come again boys and receive dose number two, for if you do you will never have the leprosy.
