They built and lived in. their log cabins while clearing up the land. They could hear the barking of the foxes and the fighting of wild cats and the howling of wolves. From the hill west of the cabin the hoot owl sounded his old base voice and said “Who are . you?” As the soujnd reached the opposite hill on the east the echo came back “Who are you?" This kept up for hours at a lime. ’ The whipporwill voice echoed from hill top to hill top and the nightingales sang all night long. ■There lived south of Syracuse two of those early pioneers. One cold winter night there came a baby boy to live with them. There were several girl babies in tjie family before he came. Like other babies in . those days he wore red flannel dresses had his share of poor John T. Bateman drops, paregoric and worm ■ candy. When he was 12 years old he Com- ■ menced to handle horses and plow. | One day he was working in the field. He could hear the whistles and rumblings of the train. He resolved he Would never be a farmer. So about 40 years ago he came to' Syracuse, contracted for the only hardware in town. The time came when he wanted a better store and more up-to-date building, so in Sept J 1900 he broke the ground for the fourth brick block in Syracuse. Elmer Strieby built one of the best equipped buildings with drawers, shelving, a space for harness and paint, buggy sale department, a storeroom. You could buy from this store anything in the hardware line from a sewing machine needle to a grain threshing outfit. Elmer had about half his hardwares moved into this room when the fire of Jan. 6, 1901 came. He operated this store for 20 years. Then he got tired of being a merchant, and one day traded it for a farm. Roas Osborn has owned the building and stock for 10 years. He has as fine, up-to-date hardware as there is in the country. Ross has two* fine boys. He is teaching them by example and direction to be industrious. UNCLE LEW. —— O—■ —' LEFT-OVERS.

THE SYRACUSE ENTERPRISE Jan. 28, 1875. > The new Evangelical church one and one half miles south of Benton was dedicated on Jan 17, with Rev. Dubbs of Cleveland, 0., officiating. The entire amount of indebtedness. $2,000 was raised previous to the dedication (This church at Solomon's Creek has just been razed.) The total amount of taxable property in Kosciusko county is $11,729,495. ' Warsaw is bidding for the Ideation of the new hospital for the insane if one is determined upon. The state is to be furnished the ground necessary for the building free of charge Bowld and Roberts announce their intention of giving a grand Washington Ball, Feb. 22. The Syracuse Sunday School at the Church of God announces it will hold its first Sunday school concert in the Bethel, in Syracuse, Saturdayevening, Feb. 13, 1875. G. M. Ray, superintendent. The greatest inconvenience under which the people of Syracuse are laboring at present is the lack of a daily mail service. We understand that the furnaces in the school buildings in Warsaw are not sufficient this extreme cold, weather, to property heat the rooms. Furnaces as a general thingy are i considered a decided “bore” by ■ competent judges and our experience with them warrants , us in .saying don’t put them in any kind ,of a building. The recent fire in Goshen (school building ' burned to the ground) originated from a defective furnace and many of hep- citizens will come to look upopzTnis manner f heating a biyldwig as we do. The following communication was received from one of our readers: For sometime past mischievously inclined persons have been in thecowardly practise of untieing and cutting loose teams from hitching posts in Syracuse. We would say the guilty parties are known and that a repetition of the offence will be met with the severity of the law. Announcements made of the man riage of Mrs. Jemima Mock to Daniel Laughlin at the residence of lhe bride in Tippecanoe township. A son has been born to Mrs. Abram Hire; and a boy was been born to' Mrs. Frank Gordy. Household Hints. One ounce of alcohol; two drachms cayenne pepper; one ounce kersosene oil; let it stand 24 hours after mixing. It cures the worst toothache ever known.
