The entire party was felled to the floor, but not severely injured. The lightning firet struck a tree.

The excessive hot and dry weather during the latter part of June and first half of July was the cause of much loss to the apple crop which promised to be a large one. Many apples fell from the trees during the time men- tioned, and those remaining are more or less stunted in growth, Mrs. Mary Noll, of Hammond, Louisiana, and her daughter, Mrs, Benjamin June, of Amite, Louisiana, are north and will remain until Oec- tober, The former is the sister of Jacob Bprow, west of Centre Halil, who she and her daughter are visiting.

Only Mrs, Miller and her daughter were at home when the fire occurred and they were unable to save any of the contents. Mr Mil- Jer had five hundred dolists insurance on the house aud oue hundred on the furniture, but this is vot Lalf the amount of the loss. If plowing makes you tired, Mr, Farmer, try a Syracuse ridiog plow, It will do the work while you 1est and you will be ready to do other farm work after the plowing is done, The Syracuse plows better than any other riding or hand plow made. You will believe this after you give the SByra- cuse a fair trisal.—J., H. and 8, E, Weber, Centre Hall and Oak Hall Station, In speaking of Democratic presi. dential possiblities, Col, William J. Bryan mentions ex-Governor Robert B. Glenn, of North Carolina.

Ralph H. and Gross Bhook, sons of E, H, Bhook, are doing farm- ing in Gregg township that attracts attention. They devote much of their time to breeding Guernsey cattle, and have on their farm registered sires and dams that are a credit to any stock breeder. These young men see enough in the “old farm” to give it their best attention, and are being rewarded financially.

The new road law applying only to | township roads makes some important | changes. At the election this fall one | supervisor will be elected for four! years, his term commencing in De-| cember, and at the next election for! township officers two supervisors will | be elected for four years and so alter- | nately thereafter. The boards organ-| ize on the first Monday in December, | instead of the firet Monday in March, | as heretofore, and the law goes into | effect in December of this year. The | auditors will meet at that time. The | provisions as to officers of the board and roadmasters is the same as the | present law and their compensation is the same. The township is supposed | to receive fifty per cent. of its cash | road tax from the state, provided it is! not over twenty dollars 4 mile, but the legislature has again cut the ap- propriation so that it cannot pay over five dollars a mile. But sll of this! money must be spent in what {a called permanent improvements, sceording to the directions of the highway de. partment, and does not include ordi- nary revairs. The taxes are collected by the township collector as at present The collector racalves two per cent. up to June 1st and five per cent. there. after, same as the present law, am——rtient— Poplis Mast be Enumerated By the provisions of the school code, school boards of each county shall, be. tween April and Beptember of esch year, cause to be made by the attend. ance officer, teachers or other persons, an enumeration of the school children between six snd sixteen years of As part of the time allottrd to work bas elapsed before the code was signed, and as the enumeration was probably made by the sesess rs, the state superintendent directs that school directors may, if they desife to avoid the expense of snother enumera. tion and are ssiisfled wilh the enumer- ation already made by the assessors, use the same enrollment instead of making a new one, In case school boards desire to make an enumeration Dr. BehaefTer suggests that the county superintendent be informed as soon as convenient so that the necessary en- roliment books may be ordered from the department for eacli district, Esch book has a blank space for three hup- dred names. If a special enumeration is to be made, secretaries, when in- forming the county superintendent, should state the number of books needed. age this ld—— Happiest Girl in Lincoln A Lincoln, Neb, girl writes: I had been ailing for some time with chronic constipation, sad stomach trouble.
