Thompson has taken possession of the property recently purchased of Mr. Barnes. Miss Agnes Nelson is in town again. She expects to move her household property this time. ' The schools Were all closed Monday on account of the cold. There will probably be two new furnaces added to the heating arrangements before the week is over. B. F. Butler, of Chicago, spent a few days with Robert Parker last week.
Little Ernest Turner, who was mentioned last week as recovering, died Thursday morning at 2 o’clock of blood poisoning, the immediate result of Bright’s disease. The sufferings of the little fellow were intense —and his pathetic appeals to his mamma, for the help she could not give him, were heart breaking, before death released him from them. The funeral services were held at the house Friday afternoon, by the Rev. Handley. Messrs. O. P. Taber and J. L. Puntney.will build a fine brick warehouse on the west side of the range line gravel road sometime in the near future. Wm. Zea, whose strange illness was spoken of last week, has fully recovered.

Her place as teacher in the town schools will be filled by Miss Ella Longwell, whose term in the Hunt district will be finished by Miss Clara Bloom.
To the Republican: Last week’s Republican published a brief statement headed, ‘‘That Warlet at O’Meara’s,” and signed by three well known young men, and of one 'of whom the above cut is a correct likeness; and to all three of whom the cut bears so close a resemblance that their best friends could not tell which of the three the picture was intended for. ’ And the competition for resem bla nee might even be extended to Include the young man who Worked the sleight-of-hand performance with the 50 cent piece, with much better prospects for his being awarded the victory than he ever had to get the prize in a beauty show. These honorable men in their statement last week started out to tell the whole truth, .but omitted the most important part, and ended with a direct fabrication. The mistake referred to by them consisted in saying that Mr. Overton put the money in out of his own pocket, whereas the aforesaid honorable men had handed it to him with the condition that it should be returned unless it was needed to carry the contest. Was that fair ? Then they stated that it was reported before time was called, which is a bare-faced prevarication and we can prove it. Yours to the finish. True Woodworth. Jennings Wright. Clyde Reeve. Joe; Marshall. Hall’s Hair Renever is pronounced the best preparation made L r thickening th” giowth of the hair and restoring that which isgry to its original color.
That Warlet Still Warlike.
