Mi*. Keen has a Well stocked furniture store at Wheatfield and is a progressive and patronage deserving citizen. J. F. Bruner arrived home from his visit to the Pan -and Niagara Falls, Sunday night.

Mrs. M. E. Henkle, of Barkley, has been granted a soldiers’ widow’s pension, of sl2 per month, as the widow of the late Joseph Henkle. It was secured through Capt. Burnham’s pension agency, in only four months from the date of the application.

Reuben Gundy, another of the supposed participants, has been arrested and released on bail.

For some reason, we failed to learn at the time, of the special reason for the late re-union of the Paris family. It was that last Thursday, August Bth, was the golden wedding of Mr. and Mrs. Berry Paris, they having been married just 50 years on that day. The assembled children left various tokens in remembrance of the day. John Snyder, 21 years old, was found dead by the Monon tracks, Sunday morning, about a mile north of Monticello. All circumstances indicated that he had been struck by the south-bound passenger train which passed here at 11:25 p. m., Saturday night. The last seen alive of the young man, was when he left Monticello about 10:30 p. m., Saturday, very much under the influence of liquor.

James Yeoman, 6 miles west, has threshed his 8 acres of Canada wheat mentioned some time ago. It did not yield quite the 50 bushels to the acre some people had estimated, but it was a fine crop of most excellent wheat, for all of that. The 8 acres threshed 256 bushels, which is 32 bushels to the acre. It is stated that Mr. Yeoman can sell the entire crop at $2 per bushel, for seed. Wm. Carter, the bright young colored man who has worked for Delos Thompson and other Rensselaer parties for some time past, is talking of going to a colored college at Atlanta, Ga., to study for the ministry, he being of a very religious turn of mind. He also talks of launching oat in literature by writing a book. Just now he is in a quandary to decide between two subjects, one is “The black side of white people.” The other “The white Bide of black people.” Verily, both are very comprehensive subjects and if William is unable to decide whioh is llmbest, he might combine the two and “catch em, both gwine andcomin.” Uncle Fitz Bedford is greally pleased over his success in raising sugar beets. The head agriculturist of the Central Sugar Company was down and says the best will go 25 tons to the acre and the

whole cjop will average 20 -teas. If the above company does no’t want to take the beets at the contract price, there are several factories in Michigan hot after them at more than the contract price. Mr. Bedford believes, from the sweetness of his beets, that their sugar test /will realiza fully SIOO per acre on them. And far the biggest end of that will be clear profit. The weather gets pretty hot occasionally, but only by starts and jerks, and does not get down to steady business as July weather did. »To illustrate this zigzag quality of tlie present weather, last Friday Aug. 9th, is a good example. The UU S. thermometer here registered 97, degrees that day, which was the highest of the month, so far. Yet the day before it was only 85 degrees and the day after <?nly 86. Yesterday was another day when the weather took another hot freak, and 96 was registered.
