Lost A rather strenuous joke arose ut of some ordinary circumstances, Fri day night, when the many friends of Frank Sheets, of the real estate firm of Payne & Sheets, thought he was lost and turned out ln a body to hunt for him. All the time Mr. Sheets was sitting calmly at home. under his own vine and flgtree, cleaning fish.. Friday Mr. Sheets, and Master Rus sell Bradley, aged five years, went a few miles up. river In a buggy to fish. Mri Sheets left the buggyr an horse In charge of Master Russell, and went Into the trees and under growth to' the stream. Soon after his departure Master Russell, probably getting tired waiting, complacently drove . back to , Enterprise and thought nothing about it. . In. the meantime Mr. Sheets finding the rig gone, and surmising that it ' had probably been driven back to town, thought that he would whip the1 stream down, Inasmuch as he had to walk anyway. - - , . i. . In the , meantime Mrs. Sheets hought she would drive back to get Mr. Sheets, but when she arrived IX, Sheets, being already on his .vay down river, could not be found. By this time It was dark. Arriv- ng' home before the "lone fisher- nan" did, Mrs. Sheets became ,wor- led. The ,.. news spread rapidly. N'ight was coming on. The many rlend3 of Mr. Sheets began to pic ture all sorts ' of accidents that night have happened to him. Then he hunt began. Persona living up he valley were telephoned to. And he ' upshot of the affair was that ,irobably 200 .persons, out with lan terns and hallooing unto .the night, ere hunting .for the "lost" man. 4 L. Burnaugh finally thought .it night be well to visit the residence if Mr. Sheets again, and did so. ie found Mr Sheats sitting calmly m the kitchen floor cleaning fish, fhe mystery was shortly explained Mr. Sheats' had come In after light fall with a good string of trout, while the "man hunt" ,was going on, ind he was Innocent of any turmoil vis absence created. At about. 12 j'clock telephone messages- were tent abroad sufficiently to reach Ul the "man hunters'' and call them oack to their homes, and whose '-reat is It, anyway? " NOTICE.
