remember as the detective who caught the murderer, Ira STEPHENSON, in Colorado,

Florissant, Colo. When CARSON gets on the war path he always "gets his man."

While Observer is waiting for his new quill and frish (sic) supply of ink I
will endeavor to give a portion of the news from our town and "suburbs."

=====================

"TWELVE-MILE."

picking currants. A good time is reported "tenting on the old camp ground."

The west half of district 39 is working for a school house. This may be a
good thing, but the small number of pupils will not justify building an
expensive one.

Wm. PELLA has sold his cattle to Jake TAYLOR and is moving back to Ottawa
county, this state, onto his old homestead. We are sorry to lose so valuable a
citizen.

Rev. GLICK, of Oakley, preached a very interesting sermon here Sunday
evening.

night.

their political business.

Mr. and Mrs. HOWES and Mrs. M.'s mother, of McAllaster, attended the
entertainment here Saturday night.

A fine shower of rain fell here Tuesday morning and laid the dust and cooled
the air, not enough to do the corn much good.

Mr. and Mrs. I. B. FELTS took the flyer Wednesday morning for Topeka, where
Mr. FELTS will meet the state treasurer, after which they will go on to
Albany, Mo., and visit two or three weeks.

The entertainment given Saturday night by home talent gave universal
satisfaction and it was remarked on every hand that the play was well rendered. We
understand they give the same play at McAllaster on Saturday night, August 2.
