have long been of this opinion, and have

put up a hotel about like the Markham
House: tlin: would be about the right
size for the town.”

I HE FASTIDIOUS BURtxLABS.
They Wend Their Merry Way Through
Town and Take Their Uhelee,
The burglars were out again on
Monday night, but made a light haul.
They found Dr. \\ . T. Cate’s door
open, while the doctor and his wife
were visiting a neighbor, and walked
in to see wherewithal they might be
clothed. Mrs. Cate’s mother was in
the house and attempted to enter the
hall, but one of the gentlemen held
the door while the other borrowed
the doctor’s best light overcoat, a
Derby hat with a red hatband mark
ed “Wilbur” and a handsome cloak
of Mrs, Cite.
This is a lesson to people always
to wear their Lest clothes when they
go out to visit their neighbors and
leave the hali door unlocked.
It was also reported that they had
visited R. F. Strickland’* residence,
but Mr. Strickland denied any knowl
eege of the fact. He says be has
nothing, but a double barrelled shot
gun loaded with buckshot to receive
them with. lie had better hide tbe
shotgun if he doesn’t want the
thieves to get it.
Col. William Tecumseh Cole is an
other party reported to be robbed,
and he says it occnred Friday night
but vras never found out until yester
day. His clothes were all found on
the floor on Saturday morning, as if
they bad been searched and the bur
glarious gentlemen bad found that
Poor Bill bad nothing and had left
in disgust. Col. Cole says that they
were too proud to carry oft* his over
coat. Yesterday, however, upon in
vestigation it was found that two
dozen silver forks and spoons were
missiDg. That tbe intruders were
persons of skill in their profession is
g^own by thn fact that they entered
through a door that was locked and
the key left in tbe lock.
On Tuesday n’gbt they also car
ried off the choicest of Mrs Mose
6 chickens
For several nights an entrance has
been attempted through one of the
doors of Mrs. Drake’s noass.
All of this should increase th*
i ardware and gunsmith business and
a small boom in that line may be ex
pected.
These be mighty pretty nights for
a lynching bee, to vary the tuenoto

To buy or not to bay was the question that

Orchard Hill, Mar. 20, 1888.—
Lovely weather for farming
Tbcio was pre :cbing at the Bap
list church last Sunday by tbe pas
tor, Rev. Wash Oliver. It being
communion day, quite a crowd were
present.
Mrs. A P. Camp has a large school
at this plstte. She is an excellent
teacher, and her pupils learn fast.
Rev. E. R. Cook filled Lis regular
appointment at Midway last Sunday.
We have a large and flourishing
Sunday School at this place, super
intended by that prince of good fel
lows. John D. Cunningham, Jr
Quite a crowd of Griffinites speDt
Sunday with us.
Mrs. E, R. Cook has a music class
at the Hill. We have long needed
a first class music teacher, aud we
certainly have one in the person of
this most estimable lady.
I only wish to say that the article
in the Snu was written by H. Iverson
Starr, ex sewing machine agent t who
is well known between Sonny Side
and B.irtresville, more especially
hero at the Hill. Tom Thrash was
not the originator of thcrepoit. The
item was intended as a “joke and
any sensible person would so con
etruo it; every OBe at the Hill knew
how it was intended, and received
it so. save tbe great, original and
only Road Overseer Sewing Machine
Henry Iverson Starr, the Texas ran¬
ger. His paragraph docs no harm,
for he is well known at home. Should
he say auy more in reference to the
affair, I will give ihe readers of the
News a few facts concerning his ca
reer as a Sewing Machine agent, and
other things. Stbscriber.

Point in Ftiqaette,
A reader of tbe Herald writes to
say that be ia fond of plug tobacco,
and to ask if its use in moderate
quantities would do violence to tbe
etiquette cl mmon among gentlemen
i j the best American society. It is
questions I.ke this which do violence
to the accommodating spirit ol the
Herald. Ti. ,• standing of plug tobac
co in society has never been autbori
tatively settled, but to be on the
safe side, the inquiring gentleman
•hould use fine cut at weddings and
