Hanging drove.

Ed Hornickel is spending a few days at his old home at Chattsworth, 111. C. C. Randle made a business trip down about Lee last Saturday evening. Mr. Wayne Gwin is preparing to leave Hanging Grove, having rented a farm near Brook. There will be a box supper and entertainment at >Lee next Saturday evening. All are invited to attend. Arther Stewart and Frank Bailey seemed to be the principal dealers in mittens at the box social at Banta school house the other night. Joseph Stewart is erecting a new house and preparing to move to his farm near Osborne school house. L. W. Goodyear and H. F. Rishling were seen out driving last Sunday, but from all appearances the boys were going the wrong way to be going to church. Charley Thompson, of Monon, is making weekly visits to Hanging Grove. He says there is no particular attraction, but he is watching the prospering events of the country. Rev. Appleton began a protracted meeting at McCoysburg last Thursday evening. Rev. Appleton is well informed from the scripturglsland point, and it would be well, for all that can to come out and hear him. Will Foster is making arrangements for a tour through some of the western statesi, as manager of a theatrical troup, in which he is the principal actor. He gave his first production of the play at the masquerade the other evening. It was enjoyed by all. The play is a farce comedy entitled the fanatic monkey. Miss Hanging Grove wishes to inform Mr. Will Foster that it isn’t a glass house that she lives in, but in case she wished to throw stones she would select a more important subject to thfow at.
