there is any moonshine distillery
there, aDd it certainly is not a har-

some practical joker with a magic
lantern or some kind of strange

people.
At any rate the thing has caus-
ed a great stir among the people
in that region.

A Painful Hurt.
Mr. F. R. 8herwood happened
to an acoident Saturday last that
came near crippling him for life,
and for a time he thought it had.
He had been scaling the walls of
the new oil mill; has repeatedly
gone to the comb of the roof dur-
ing the constrrction of the build-
ing and has successfully superin-
tended the entire work of patting
in the machinery without receiv-
ing a scratch. But on last Satur-
day, while showing one of the
workmen how to roll a wheelbar-
row he strained a muscle in the
calf of one of bis legs, and for
several hourB was unable to walk
without fereat pain.
With the aid of a physician and
Mrs. Sherwood's tender nursing
he was able to be at his post yes-
terday, but is still a little lame at
times.
