Another Hoax.
A sensational article appeared In the
Phlladclpcta Press last week with a con
spicuous heading of divorce and murder.
It represented James Grubb and Miss Fan
ny May ns having been married about four
years ngo and two years after leaving for Chi
cago, where a quarrel arose and on account
of the loose dlvorco laws of Illinois they
separated and his wife returned to Laportu.
Grubb remained In Chicago until about a
month ngo when he returned and found
his wife being visited by a young man
named Silligan. This angered him and he
took the life of Silligan with a revolver.
Immediately after the shot a crowd of men
and boys standing outsido the room rush
ed for Grubb who immediately closed tho
door, and to save punishment from tho
crowd took his own life by plunging a pen
knife in tho region of the heart. This has
proven to be another hoax like the one
given in the same paper about a month
ago In reference to a murder at Coles'
Creek. The people about Laporto arc
indignant that they Bhould be so misrep
resented, If our dally papers must give
space to such Items, let them confine them
selves to the truth.

In the Inst named place. Mr. Itlttcnhousc
has made somo good Improvements, and
Mr. Learn contemplates similar ones on his
premises, Ash Bros. Milt is hi full opera
atlon. Some dissatisfaction Is felt in the
neighborhood owing to the fact that Mr.
Scth Thomas Is moving ids fenco out into
the lane leading from tho main road to the
Croup place. It Is stated that the road has
stood at Its present width for over twenty
years and It seems strange that Mr. T.
should only recently have discovered that
he owned the right to abridge tt. If It is
reduced to the width contemplated It will
bo a dangerous road for teamsters or pe
destrians to travel ns it crosses the it. It.

pened to be In the road at the same time.
