The Tables Turned. IViitro Hall Reporter. "The Latest one on Snyder coun ty is this: A fellow from the west oud ridges, with his son Jakey, started with tt load of railroad ties for the station at Middleburgh, a distance of 7 miles.

We have thoroughly investigated this matter and find that the man above referred to moved to thin county from Centre only ti few weeks ago. He came from the section known as "Dumheit !nii-h Valley."
