LEONARD'S MILK One of the Democrats around here jollified in a rather novel way. One night while returning from town in his buggy, and pondering on the good time coming he let his horse walk up on a steep bank by the roadside to keep oat of the mud, but the bank was not wide enough for the buggy so it upset and landed our Democratic friend in the middle of the mud hole. There he was and there he stayed until a brother Democrat came along and helped him out of his fix. Our school is progressing finely. C. H. Easton is teaeher. -Artiterary Society has been

organized at tne -Leonard senooi

We would advise persons to be

careful about applying sulphur and

lard to f rnit trees as recommended by your Indian Creek correspondent. It has been tried around here and kept away the rabbits it is true, but it also killed the trees Charley Easton, Dow Rogers, Will Goodale, Mort Koons, and Grant Koons went to the Blair School house about for or five miles distant, to a spelling match, last Friday night. If we are to believe the boys, their adventures were simply marvelous. They crossed Blair's hollow on foot after night, without missing the way. They saw a vast number of pretty girls; they distinguished themselves greatly with their orthographical talents and managed to find their way out

INDIAN CREEK. Since the snow has fallen those thtot had any powder left from rejoicing over the election have been improving the time killing rabbits, and many of those cotton tailed animals have had to pass in their checks. Wes. Jones has landed back from Illinois, where he has been chopping wood for the past two months. Danny Smith has gone to Kansas to grow up with the West, in spite of our advice to the contrary, Frank May writes back frm Missouri that the snow is four feet deep, and that lie is coming .back in a short time. Don't blairfe yo, Frank. Uug! makes one cold to think of such a snow! High time now to look after the comfort of the cattt you have not already done so. They should be housed as carefully ?s horses if you would economize in the way of feed. i Harvy Nash is still at David Right's in a very feeble condition with consumption.

C C. Dann is the buyer. -HUory Taylor , cant down a sheep same as cabbage; also a hog r a beef. Hilory is bad and dont you forget it. A stray horse with briddle and saddle was fosnd in our town with a board tied to his halter. It is now in J. S. William's stable. We have often heard of Frankfort college, but our boys say there

is a Franklin college atEilettsville.

Two of our boys put in their scholarships last Sunday eve. -Wm. Cline hauled 11 loads of stone to the stone saw-mill in one day. That is pretty good driving for a stone wagon. Go in Bill, you will discount a side-track. H-"Did" as a fine crew on the roads td-da working out roadtaxes. Dr. Dayis was seen with a shovel on his shoulder. May be he was going to work too, he is inclined to be very industrious. T-James Welch is now loafing with Frank Wilson since Bill Bales has left. Bill was a regular settler from morning till noon and from noon till night Jim says he is not quite so good as that. "Diddle" Brisoo had a fine drive over to Spencer this week Had a little bad luck.

SOUTH I

About half of perfe in tins neighborhood visit4jthe other half last Sunday. People here don't go in for calling, very much; they stay all day. . Mrs. JKebecca Jones suffered a great 4fi&! this week from neuialga. She isnow better. rJliss Sue Turner returned home

week. Miss Lusta Davis, of Solsberry, is visiting Mrs. John Battengei-. Mrs. Jennie Stephenson and Harvey, from near Bloomington, were the guests of her mother, Mrs. Jones, Saturday and Sunday. Peter Ballenger is putting up a new crib and Sam Jones is going to have anew barn. South Union is talking of getting up a Christmas tree. Why can't we neighbors. Why can't we have any more preaching here? The brethren should see to this and not wait for some preacher tp volunteer. On Thanksgiving at night a supper was given at the residence of Joseph Bunger for the purpose of making up money to buy Christinas presents lor the Leonard Sunday School. Twenty dollars was cleared and it was 'quite an enjoyable entertainment. "Captain" Jesse Smith hereafter, if you please. Fred Hooyer and wife, of Bloomington, were the guests of Taunt Jones the first of the week. It was a good joke on Will when his girl left that note signed "you honey suckle!" We wonder why Belle thinks widowers are so nice! And we wonder why Florence is so sad this week! And we wonder what in the -orld would cure Chess of bashfulness! And we wonder if Manda and Laura really do quarrel over a Riddle! And we wonder where Charley was Thanksgiving! And we wonder why "Big Indian" don't furnish more news from Indian Creek. "Big Indian" is a man, and men visit aro'md &ud gossip so much, while we women are at home at work and havn't time to hear what's going on.

STANFORD. James King is not so sick but what he can haul rails. Wm. Smith, sen, is very poorly with a swollen foot. Mr. Connet is breaking sod for corn in the spring. Henry Hudson, of Cincinnati, was in town on Wednesday. Farmers now busy butchering. We heard Jake Riddle say, Bill went to borrow soda on Tuesday nights. It seems as Bill is determined to capture a Thrasher. Luther Tourner, of South Un

ion, was seen in town one day this

week. Joe Fisher, of Green county, passed through town last Wednesday on his way to Bloomington, to meet his son Robert and family, who were coming back from Iowa. Mr F. met them on the road and passed them and they did not know one another, though it has been only 3 years since Robert left this country. Paris says a new clerk never does well. It takes an old one to stand the test. The people of Stanford met at the church on Wednesday night, and decided to have a Christmas
