The snow is fast disappearing under the influence of the rain. Quite a number of our people are suffer ing from colds, tlie result of recent bad weather. Grant Holcomb killed a coyote on New Year's day. It would be nothing more than right that the comity would pay a bounty on coyote scalps as these fellows do much damage.

The addition to the Rock Creek school house will soon be built. The contract lias been let to Thomas Ross at $40, and the lumber is being hauled from the An drews' mill, near M.ountaindale.

In endeavoring to extinguish a lighted lamp, which hangs over a show case, it came loose from its hangings and crashed through the case, a mass of burn ing oil. A bystander 0ened the door and through Mr. Unternah rer's presence of mind what might have been a very extensive blaze was averted. Siezins a piece of gunny sack he grasped the burn ing lam p and threw it out through the o(ien door and then smothered the flames inside. But very little damage was done and the loss of the glass which was broken will be thechiefest. Obituary. Samuel J.

Slight Mishap. , As the down train from McMinn villo was coming around a curve above this point last Friday Morn ing it came in contact with a tree which had fallen in close prox'mi ity to the rails. The engine passed safelv enough, but when the pas senger coach came along all the windoij-s 011 that side were broken but one. E. W. Haines, of the firm of Il.tim-s & Bailey, was a pas senger and received a slight cut near the eye and a small piece of glass buried itself in that member. Mr. Chiprnan, of Forest Grove, also sustained a cut on the face. On the arrival of the train at this sta tion Mr. Haines was driven to the oflice of Dr. Tamiesie where the wound was dressed. The engineer was unable to stop the train owing to the condition of the rails. MOUNTAINDALE. Everything is very quiet here since the Holidays are over. A pleasant party was held New Year's Eve at the residence of Wm. Adams. We have about ten inches of snow and six inches of mud underneath, up here, and as a matter of course sleighing is not very good. We wonder how he got home from the party with both girls after breaking down on the road below Delaney's. The Andrews Lumber Co. has closed down for a few dayi, and the boys are now taking a rest.
