Wall's general merchandise atere, at Richards, Vernon county, was burglarized Sunday night. The burglars forced the front door of the store and carried away about $20 worth of clothing and ehoes. Frank Moss, a farmer living three mules west of Harwood, Vernon Co, while plowing in his field Monday, dropped dead in the furrow behind his plow. The deceased was about 50 years of age, and recently return ed from Oklahoma Miss Myrtle Eastwood, of Schell City, who recently created such a sensation in Schell City by shooting at and trying to kill Robert Sailor, whom she accussd of ruining her sister, was taken to the Asylum at Nevada Monday.

It is said snipe are very plentiful this season. A man from the north part of the county was in town Saturday with a litter of seven young wolves.

Boxley, who has been confined to his home for the past three months, was eompelled to | undergo a surgical operation for! necroses of the bone Friday of last | week. The operation was performed | by Dr. Boulware, assisted by Dr. ! Gilmore, of Adrian.and while severe, involving both bones of the left leg below the knee, was highly satisfac. tory to the physicians as well as the patient. The bones were badly dis- eased and quite a quantity of bone was removed. The operation gave the Judge great relief and he is now getting along nicely, and it is hoped that in due time he will be able to | be up and about again. | |Stone, a | jof diseases, The deceased was a eould health, it that the good Lord would cali him near Grange Hall, in Walker town- ship, Henry county, one night last week. The deed was committed while the couple were on their road | Arriving bome| home frem church. the young lady disregarded the threat of McHugh to kill her if she revealed the fact, and immediately notified her parents of what had happened. Mr. Stone had a warrant issued for the arrest of McHugh, who was found by the constable} working in a field some six miles be- yound where his victim lived. He was taken to Clinton and lodged in jail. The affair created great indig- nation in the neighborheed in which the young lady lived, and a lynching was averted by the constable taking his prisoner direct to Clinton after making the arrest. Since writing the above we learn that the young man’s name is Walter McCue, and his home is in Mingo township, Bates county, where his family reside, and they are promi nent, influential and well-to-do peo- ple. We understand there is great excitement among the people of the northeast part of the county where he is well known Jobn L Smith died at the home of his son-in-law, C. J.
