Mr. Moles was walking with the aid of a crutchand informed us that he had been suffer ing great pain for the past year and a half with sciatic rheumatism, and on two occasions has been compelled to have severe surgical opera tions performed on himself at the hip joint. He is now recovering and the Trazs hopes to see him well again shortly. We can assure our readers that the entertainment to-night by the Von Elsners, assisted by other mu- sicians from abroad, and our best local talent, will be superior to any ever in our city.

They came by wagons and horse-back, aud by noon the streets were literally packed with people and the hitch- rack and alleys were jammed with vehicles of every description. In short there has not been such a large crowd in town for many a day. When the booming Ties throws out her tow line she generally fetches em. Ilearn trom good authority that your worthy townsman, Jas. K. Brugler, has sold to parties inter- ested in the K.

Gailey, of our town, has sold about the same amount, but did not learn at what price, nor to whom, but you may bet he didn’t give it away, for he is not noted for doing that kind of business. If we had a few more men of pluck and enterprise, such as the above named gentlemen, we could soon have another “Infant Wonder” in Bates county, as we undoubtedly have the finest coal field in the west, | and as K.C. has now taken hold, you can rest assured that she will not stop with a few hundred acres. —(Amoret correspondent in Record.)

Clinkinbeard, about fifty years of age and a carpenter by trade, and one of our best citizens died at his residence in West But ler about 1 o'clock of gangrene. The funeral took place in the alte:- noon of the same day and his re- mains were laid to rest in Oak Hill cemetery. Up until Tuesday of last week, with the exception of being ruptured, he was a stout, hearty man, and worked constantiy at his trade. As thecireumstane:s of his untimely death may be a war:ing and prove a benefit to those efflict- ed as he was for 14 or 15 years, we relate the cause of his death. Tuesday herniacame down and be- coming strangulated began to swell, and he was unable to replace it. Wednesday Dr. Christy was sum moued, and called in consu:tation Drs. Rice, O’Rear and Boyd on Thursday. A thorough examination of the pa- tient was then made and it was decided that as strangulation had existed for 48 hours it was absolute- ly necessary to perform a surgical operation. Mr. Clinkenbeard wife were accordingly notified of the decision and also of the danger attending such operation. As it was the only hope left, both willing- ly gave their consent. The opera- tion was performed by Dr. Boyd, assisted by Drs. Rice. Christy, and O’Rear. It was very successfully performed, and for five days the | patient did well.
