Operator Jas. Davis returned home Monday from the hopfields, taned and dirty. He is again pounding the brass for the Wells Fargo Express Company. Chas. Anderson, Atty. from Denver, Colorado, formerly of Beaver City, Nebraska, was in the Grove visiting his old friend and classmate, Will French, of the News. Mr. Anderson is a jovial fellow and the way they re called old times wasn’t slow. About ten years of their career together, was rehearsed in five hours and we are safe in saying was far more interesting than “ A Turkish Bath” or even a trip to Newport. A squint eyed freak of nature arrived in the Grove one day last week, engaged the Opera House for Wednes day evening, September 21, then de corated the town with glaring lithogra phs, advertising “ A Turkish Bath” . He also made a short call at the News Office, presenting a nice order for more printed matter, but failing to comply with the rules of our job de partment, he traveled on. We now rejoice over our good judgement. Why the company failed to put in its appearance last evening, seems an an- solved mystery. Whether the train ran off the track, the boat capsized, or they came in contact with alive electric wire and stuck fast, we are not able to say, but if the balance of the company compare favorably with their advance representative, we are certain some thing serious must have happened, perhaps went stranded. Mr. and Mrs. H. O. Barnhart, who have been visiting the family of James Shannon for the past two months, took their departure today for Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, via Portland, San Fran cisco, Pocatello and Salt Lake City. Mr. Barnhart is one of the most faith ful and trusted railroad conductors of the Pennsylvania Railway systems. It was through his many years of valuable service to the company that he was granted a three month’s leave of absence. He is a gentleman of pleas ing address, prominent in politics, has traveled extensively and is very inter esting. We regret very much that Mr and Mrs. Barnhart must take their departure, but as duty demands, we wish them a safe and pleasant home ward journey. They have made many friends during their stay and the News joins them in hoping that fate will not be so unkind but that we may again be permitted the opportunity to grasp their hand in this life.
