I hey expect to get started within sixty ''days, and will cut from twenty to thirty thousand daily. 1 ha, lumber cut in the county is now inadequate for the supply, and many wanting lumber are playing a waiting game.

Tuesday evening, Henry Huhman, a prominent farmer of Blooming, a large settlement south of Corne lius, came near ending his life by drinking carbolic acid by mistake. Mr. Huhman had lieen working in the bay Held all day, and, coming in at dusk, thought he would take a glass of wine. He went to a cup board, wh-re it was dark, and took down what he thought was the wine bottle. Instead, it was the carl-olic acid. Before he knew it le had swallowed about a table- spoonful of- the poisonous liquid, enough, ordinarily, to kill a person of strong constitution. Realizing his terrible mistake, he turned to notify the family, and fell. Dr. F. A. Bailey was at once called, and found the victim in great agony. Mr. Hubinan's lins and throat were burned white and his stomach was almost paralysed. Antidotes were given and it is hoped the unfortun ate man will recover. The bottle was properly labelled and only the darkness tade the error possible. REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS.

The July term of Circuit Court will take the will contest against the estate of the late Jacob Brugger. of Cedar Mill. Mr. Brugger was one of the substantial citizens of his section and was fairly well known all over the county. By in d us try and frugality he amassed 1 snug little estate, appraised at $22 730, but worth $25,000. After mak ing several gifts to charity, notably to the St. Vincent s hospital, the county poor farm and a church to which he was attached, he bequeath ed the residue cf his estate to his two daughters, Hattie Reynolds and Susan Reynolds save fifty dollars, left to an alleged daughter, Minnie Brugger. Judge Rood was named as executor, but being pro bale judge, did not qualify, Fred, his son, upon petition, qualifying under bonds of $30,000. Later on Minnie Brugger filed a contest, al leging that undue influence had caused the will to be written as was signed, and set forth that the peti tioner was entitled to a third of the estate. Judge Rood denied the pe tition but permitted the case to go up to the circuit court upon stipu lation. For sale 100 acres, brush and timber, south ol Laurel. No im provements.
