Automobile on Our Streets.
T. J. Stockdule, one of the proprietors

pleasure of a ride with Mr. Stockdale
on the automobile. The steep bills do
not effect the speed ot the horsoless
carriage. While spining through Pres-
cottvllle a little fellow said : "Say
mister, you lost your horse." One ob
jection to automobiles on country roads
Is that the roads are narrow and the
"auto" frightens horses. For this rea
sonand Bevoral others we do not ex
pect to buy an automobile soon. Mr.
Stockdale's "auto" only cost $750.00.

FOUND BY A DREAM.
The Body of Waldick Neiman Found in
Sandy Lick Creek.
Snvon months ngo Waldick Neiman,
four-yenr-old son of William Neiman,
who resides at tho mines near Falls
Creek, disappeared from his homo nnd
it was thought that tho boy hnd been
drowned. A largo number of nolghbors
joined In tho search along tho. creek
and through tho country for tho miss
ing boy, but they failed to find any
troco of him. Tho boy's parents nro
foreigners nnd tho llttlo fellow could
not speak English, and for this reason
tho neighbors thought there was a pos
sibility that tho lad would eventually bo
found alive, but tho father insisted from
tho first thnt the boy had beon drowned
and every Idle day ho hnd during tho sov
en months ho searched tho creek for tho
body of his Bon. It Is claimed thnt dur
ing that time that Mr. Neiman niado
at least a dozen trips down ono sldo of
tho Sandy Lick creek to this placo and
up tho other sldo to Falls Creek. Last
Wednesday the father found his boy.
Tho Fulls Creek lli ntltl says that the
fathor found tho boy through b dream.
Wo clip tho following from tho Ilrmld:
"Tho father had dreams at night, and
In his visions saw clearly the accident
na It must have happened to tho unfor
tunate boy, und In his dreams tho loca
tion of where tho body was to bo found
was clear. Day after day tho father
followed tho directions of his dreams
and as often as ho wjmt ho was doomed
to disappointment. Tho llttlo child
was a tender flower in tho garden of tho
family and was much beloved by tho
parents, so during tho wholo seven
months of the tlmo since tho llttlo ono
disappeared tho fathor hns nover lost
hopo but thnt tho body would eventual
ly bo found.
"On Wednesdnyof this week his dream
was verified, for ho wont to tho placo
designated and there, partly bidden by
a projection from tho bank, ho found
tho decomposed body of his loved one.
Although prepared by seven months
searching and waiting for such a sccno
Mr. Noimnn's strong heart grew weak
as a little child's again."
