The handsomest and probably the most costly New Year’s present re- ceived was that of a magnificent set of diamonds, ear rings and breast pin, by Mrs. W. E.

About the first ot December a white-livered, lecherous scoundrel, giving his name as John Wine, hail- ing from God knews where, and whose worthless carcass would dis- grace the potter’s field 1f the one-halt that is told on him be true, made his appearance on Hogskin, in Lone Oak township, and putting on a sanctimonious face and claiming to to be an ardent member ot the Bap tist church,or rather of an assocration in that neighborhood known as the ‘People of God,” soon gained their good will, brotherly love, kind care and affection. To more fully estab- lish himself with the church in that | locality, he sought the residence of Lindsay Wine, a harmless and inof- ! fensive old man ot that neighborhood, and, claiming a cousin kinship, (which Mr. L. Wine declar existed m) between t house headquar journ with the “P His first move to gain triendship | and acquamtance was to play off} sick, claiming that he had been hornble Part of this sad story, Ar- | ving home they Prepared for bed and the child,not knowing what was required of her as a wite, refused to | 2 { | g° to bed with the brute, but | | the will of the old woman again be- | 25 Per Cent.

What might have proven a dis- astrous fire but for the timely arrival ot Don Kinney, ©. C. Duke and some other gentlemen, occurred in that room of the opera house used as aschool room on Monday morn- ing. A pine petition had been erected, dividing the class rooms occupied by Miss Bell Davis from that of Miss Maggie Abell’s ; through this petition a stovepipe runs. These dry boards took fire, causing a stampede among the children, but no serious harm was done. It it had gotten well under way it would have been impossible to have saved the building, as the water was all trozen up. The following unique advertise- ment recently appeared in a western newspaper, as follows: ‘*Whereas, I have lett my wife and her board, Whereas, I have become attached to another and more attractive woman, Thereby give warning to the public that I will in the future pay my own bills without any assistance trom her Whatever,”’ The woman brought up from Rich Hill last week to be locked up on a itil ventence was sent back by Prose- iB cating Attorney Jackson on the next oBitin. The cause for such prompt action on the part of our tender- bearted prosecutor was from the fact that the woman brought her entire family along, cohsisting of five or fixemall children, Mine Inspector John Whitehead and L. W. Beck, of New Home township, were in the city Friday and favored the Times. From them we learned the tollowing sad acci- dent. On Christmas morning Miss Moss, daughter of a miner, in a playful mood picked up a revolver and pointing it at her father pulled the trigger, instantly there was a re port and Moss fell, shot through tae breast. A physician was summoned who dressed his wound, and at last account he was resting easy. The young lady is nearly distracted with Bro.

This man John Wine. not being content with the hospitality which he had received at the hands of Lindsay Wine, and, we suppose, tiring of prayer meetings, conceived the idea and began the secret work ot disrupting his henefactor’s house- hold, and he was not Jong in ac- complishing it.
