Harvey W. Wood, Jr., of southeast of town and Miss Jennie Murray were united in marriage Sunday evening at six o’clock at the home of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. John T. Murray, of this city, Rev. H. L. Kindig officiating. The turkey market season is now on. The best time to sell your turkeys for the eastern Thanksgiving market is from the Bth to the 12th of November. B. S Fendig will be at his old stand prepared to pay the highest market prices for them. G. M. Wilcox & Son at Surrey and Parr and Reed McCoy nt McCoysburg will act as his agents also. Hayes has traded his 40 acre farm in the northwest corner of Barkley township for Ezra Switzer’s 80 acre farm one mile south. Mr. Hayes gets possession of the Switzer farm Nov. 10, but as he had rented his own farm for next year, Mr Switzer will not get possession until March, 1906. Mr. Hayes pays SI,OOO difference in the trade Oxford Tribune: An aftermath of the McCoy bank failure in Rensselaer. A widow aged 74 years near that place, who had her all in the McCoy bank, was taken to the poor house to spend her few remaining years as a public charge. The McCoys still live in style and resent any interference with their privileges Tbe taxpayers of Jasper will be put to a heavy cost in an attempt to bring the two rascals to justice and probably that justice will only be a farce. No wonder men harden their hearts and lose faith in humanity. One little remark of Gov Baily’s speech of last Monday we wish to mention. He paid h glowing tribute to W J Bryan as a man, said that tln> were great personal friends, and said that in 1896 he (Baily) < companied Bryan in his pnv • car from some point in Montana to Broken Bow, Neb., and that Bryan made speeches at all the towns they passed through Now what was Baily, a republican, doing along with the Bryan p>rty in 1896? Was he a free silver republican at time? Will brother Marshall please explain? XrDr. H. L. Brown has purchased tne Dr. Berkley residence on McCoy avenue the price paid being about $4,800, which is a fair price for it notwithstanding tli it is alleged to have cost $6,500 including lot. John Makeover Held a first mortgage on which tn e was a balance of S7OO due, and Berkley gave a second mortga. to J. H. Chapman, trustee of-w.- McCoy bank matter, for >3.725, therefore he had but little quity in the property. This latter mortgage was given as security <m his overdraft for the same amount at the McCoy bank. This mortgage is now good, and not a do iar of Berkley’s overdraft will be lost. Indorsed Judge Parker. The Building Trades Council of Pittsburg, at a recent meeting, determined to separate itself from the Republican party and an appeal was adopted to union men everywhere, asking them to vote for Judge Parker. The resolution setting forth the wishes of the council was as follows: “We appeal to union men and their friends in every craft, trade, occupation and calling to aid us in our efforts to strike a crushing blow at our enemy and defeat the Republican par-, ty in this election. If you have formerly voted for that party or its candidates. we ask you in tbe name of organized labor not only to vote against them this time, but to ase every possible effort to defeat them. Let the entire labor movement unite In a common cause to teach these politicians a lesson they* will not won forget.” Judge Parker retired from the beech when nominated for the presidency, and Judge Herrick retired when nominated by the Hew York Democrats for Governor.
