the Mechanics Concert Band of
Clear Ridge. An oyster supper
will be held after the concert in

Gets Red Water.
Ed V. Mellott, near Pleasant
Ridge, would have a good excuse
for "painting things red" if he
was so inclined. A number of
years ago he bored a GO-foot well
that produced red water which
was useless. He bored another
well this fall, 72 feet deep that
produces the same kind of fluid.
Mr. Mellott is at a loss to know
how to remedy his lack of water.
Maybe if he would give it one of
the jaw-breaking names we now
see in the newspapers while read
intr war news, and recommend it
as a wonderful cure for corns or
something, he could sell enough
of it to pay for the cost of bor
ing the two wells. It is hard
luck to go to so much expense
and not get good water.
Cattle Dealer Arrested.
John M. Clayton a farmer and
cattle dealer of Rising Sun, Mary

land at which a number of 1'enn
aulvnnia farmers purchased cat
tle. It is charged that Mr. Clay-
fnn subseouently delivered some

out being accompanied by a cer
tificate of health and tuberculin
test chart as required by the

Mr. Clayton was held $300 bail
