Davis Radford, of Spruce, and brother W, A, Radford, of Paris, Texas, were pleasant callers on Sat- urday, the former favored us witha renewal, and also for his son-in-law, William Graves, of Bee Gum, Cali- fornia. Mr, Graves married Mr, Radford’s youngest daughter and went to California about fourteen years ago, By mistake in taking a dose of medicine Mr. M, Weynard, a promt- nent farmer of Washington town- ship, Vernon county, came near los- ing his life.

Ifall the merchants had ull the business they could at:end to all the time there never would beany necessity for advertising. It is when trade is dull and it takes an extra in- ducement to atmpt the dollars into circulation that advertising playsite most important function—that of creating a demand. There are some Chillicothe merchants who realize this and they are the city’s most success- ful tradesmen.” One of the misfortunes of the late floods is the delay in the distribution of school Jaws. In May Supt. Car rington shipped boxes of school laws to every County Commissioner of schoolsinthe State. Not all of those started the last week have been de- livered. He has since sent a small supply to all counties that did not receive first shipment. He will be able to supply any reasonable de- mand that may be made. Bates county has been very fortu- nate in the selection of her county clerks, under democratic supremary, from Wm. E.

Butler had the pleasure and honor .| Saturday of entertaining for the first time Col. W. J. Bryan, twice the nominee of the Democratic party for President of the United States. He arrived on the noon train and was driven to the residence of Congress man DeArmond, whoeutertained him during his stay in the city. At 3 o'clock, under the auspices of the Ladies Aid Society of the Chrie- tian chureh, Col. Bryan delivered a lectureat the opera house, takingfor his subject, “The Value of an Ideal.” The lecture as a matter, of course, was replete with wisdom, humor and pathos, and for two hours or more the large audience present al- most held their breath to catchevery word uttered by the matchless ora- tor. The lecture coming off at the hour it did many of the business and la- boring men we unable to attend, he was importuned and = ace cepted an invitation to deliver a speech in the circuit court room at night. On this occasion he discussed the “Trust, Tariff, Money and Imperial- ism.” The four leading questions now before the people in a forcible and convincing way. From Mr, Bryan's manner and sincerity, it iseasy to diseover why he has obtained such a firm hold upon the affections of the common people of this country, and one and all felt as did uncle John Vaneamp, who, in tuking Mr, Bryan by the hand, said tohim, “1 voted for you twice and would be glad to vote foryouagain.” Truly Mr. Bryan is a great states man and a brilliant orator, and the onl of Butler are greatly pleased that they had the pleasure of seeing /him and hei airing him speak. BAD ACCIDENT. Mrs. Lyde Henry Has a Broken Arm asa Result of a Runaway Accident. Saturday evening about 3 o'clock the people residing on Ohio street were greatly excited at the sight of a horse attached to a buggy com- A ing up the street Jike mad with the lines dangling at his feet and a lady in the seat. It was a terrible sight and the la- dies who witnessed it as the mad beast passed their homes held their breath and almost fainted in the expecta- tion of seeing the occupant of the buggy dashed to death against the paved street. When almost in front of the Bap- tist church a farmer who saw the horse coming jumped from his wagon and withont solicitation for his own team, made a desperate effort to stop the frightened animal. He was only successful in making the horse shy to the side of the road, and as the wheel of the buggy came in con- tact with the rock curbing Mrs. A. Henry was thrown from the vehicle, alighting on her head and shoulders, on the plat between the curbing and sidewalk. In the fall her right arm was broken near the shoulder, and she was otherwise bruised about the body. The horse started from in front of the Joe McKibben residence. Mrs. Henry’s son Harry had brought the horse and buggy to take his mother driving. He alighted and assisted his mother in the buggy and just as she seated herself and Harry was in the act of getting in, a gust of wind broke a small limb from a tree which fell on the horse causing it to jump and dragged Harry down between the wheels. Thus freed the now thor- oughly frightened horse tore down the street at full speed toward the squafe, with Mrs. Henry powerless to protect herself. She said her first impulse was to jump, then she concluded to remain in the buggy as the better chance for her life. The injured lady was carried into the parsonage of the Ohio street M. E chureh, and Dr. Boulware sum- es who set the limb and made her comfortable as possible. Later she wae removed to her home, where she is doing well as could beexpected. It was @ narrow escape and all are gratified it was no worse. No Pity Shown. “For years fate was after me con- tinuously” writes F. A.

The Mills have been idle for some time. Joe T. Smith, of Walnut township, was in Butler Friday, accompanied by his son Rue, a lad of 16 or 17 years of age. Mr. Smith said on the Fourth of July a family gathering was held at bis home, and that during the evening his son and an- other young man engaged in a friendly wrestle in the yard, and that during the tussle a large Newfound- land dog which belonged to his son- in-law and had followed the family over, interfered and bit his son on the leg. ‘While we considered the dog healthy and all right,” said Mr. Smith, “yet there was an uneasiness in regard to the matter, and conclud- ed to bring the boy to Butler and test the virtues of the mad stone in charge of the mayor.” The test was made but the atone refused to adhere tothe wound and both Mr. Smith his son returned home Saturday REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS.
