The southern end of Howell Prai rie has suffered a severe loss as a result of the defeat of Hon . B. L. Eddy for circuit judge. Clyde Rice, a brother of assessor-elect, Hon. Fred Rice, in a moment of high enthusiasm risked his handsome and highly prized mustache, that of a pale carmine hue, on the elect ion of every man on the Republican ticket in this district. The result was disastrous. Clyde walked and rode about in a sorrowful and de jected manner for several days, but election bets are inexorable. He had to submit to the inevitable, and today his mouth stands exposed to a sudden sunstroke for the want of a shade. He will probably hew re turn to a secluded haunt far from Pratum and await the coming of a new mustache. Salem Statesman.
