Mound Items. Ep. Trses:—We have been blest with one of the finest rains that ever visited this, the garden of Bates. Irmakes us all right, corn is looking fine. Farmers now have a pleasant gin on their faces and, in fact, everything is on the boom in this neighhorhood. Land is changing hands rapidly and there are lots of ‘buyers. In fact Adrian is destined to be a fine city with its oil, coal and enterprising men. Mr. T. B. Webb sold his bunch offine steers yesterday at $35 head, $1,100, to Oscar Reeder of Deer Creek township. Yesterday wasaday long to be remembered in Adrian. It was the day set for a URI, WEDNESDAY AUGUST 1, 1883. The Butler Weekly Cimes, | BUTLER, MISSO NO 35 Mrs. Jas. H. Lane, wite of | Senator Lane of Kansas, died on the 23rd ult. === Gen.

Accounts of destructive floods in the colt show of Messrs. Hunter, T. J. DavisandS M. Raper. The colts were from their fine horses. The town was full and running over with the best farmers in the county and alltook the greatest interest in the show. In fact all had their fine colts with them. Old men say they never saw a finer lot of colts in their lwes. The call tor the colts was made. The parade was on the ground back of Cox & Weaver’s but the crowd was so large and the excite- ment so great that 1t was impossible toget to see the colts. So the judges decided to cut out eighteen of the best colts and turn them into the stock pens. The dams were turned out and the judges entered on their duty of deciding. The fences, cars and every place was crowded tull to see who was the winning man. The Judges, Messrs. Mapes, Inman and North, viewed and examined those colts for an hour and a half before a decision could be had. The rst mbbon was given to Hunter’s Gray Eagle, on Wm. Miller’s colt; 2nd toS. M. Raper’s Black » on Sam. Passwater’s colt; 3rd to T. J. Davis’ Prince, on C. M. Garrison’s colt. This shows the snap of three men. The first premium was $10; 2nd, $7; 3rd, $5. These are three of the finest horses in the north |’ part of Bates county and their colts show for themselvs. There were several horses and young mares from S. M. Raper’s horse that areas good aslever saw. James Hogan was offered $300 ior a span of three year old fillys. Wm. Wilson paid Sam Passwater $140 for a tour year old horse of this same stock.

Bigstaft, assisted by his teachers, gave a Sunday School picnic in the beautiful grounds of Mr. G. T. Mitchell, about 4 miles east of Butler last Wednesday. It was one of those good old-tashioned picnics With a table nearly one hundred feet long, and just lozded down with all the delicacies of the season. It has seldom been our privilege to see so bountiful a repast. While the din- ner was an important feature, there Were many other attractions. Dr. Wnght, of Butler, gave a short but ‘uteresting address which was very appropriace. They also had some vety fine singing rendered by Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Baker, Misses Mary and Lou Ellington, Mollie Steel, Dora Heath and Lidda Kinney. and Isaac and Wm. Ellington. The croquet setts, hammocks &c., all tended to make the affair a very enjoyable one. A great deal of Praise is due Mr. G. T. Mitchell tor his kindness in giving the use of the grove and turnishing water ana | many other things to make the time | enjoyable to all.

The Henry County publishes an account of two or three young cyclones which were seen along the west line of Henry, on Tuesday of last week. Several par- | ties in this county tell us of having | seen the same funnel shaped cloud. We hear that it struck the farm of Judge Ballard in Spruce. Its path was very narrow. It first passed through a corn field betonging to the Judge, then tore down a piece of rail fence with such force that many ot the rails were broken and next pull- | ed up the posts of « string of wire fence, rolling posts and wire into a heap.

I was tired all over, with pain in| the lower limbs, and a habit of lying awake of nights. Recently I tried ome ot Benson’s Capcine Porous Plasters and was decidedly relieved within twenty-four hours. It may have been Providence that dd the work, but I give the credit to} Benson's perous plaster.’”, Mr, Thomas’ reverential idea does him credit, but Providence works bv agents, and among them Benson's plaster ranks first as an external remedy.
