The Journal made 1ne11li.u1 some weeks ago of the fact that Mr. Huneyciitt had Isiiight a monument for him self and wife. He was a link be tween the present and the past, and was full of interesting remi niscences of the past. He had shot buffalo and deer at the famous Big l.ick, years and years ago. The case of Mr. J.

B. Hart the lot just cost of the well, lying just hclwccii the well lot aud'Mr. M. F McCauley'a. If there is no immediate use for the lot, The Journal would like to see it improved for the purposes of a park a such a thing is badly needed about the wells, where so many people go nil during the summer. llie lot could be improved nt very little expense and made to serve an excellent purosc in this re siiect. Shooting fish has always been a favorite smut with Mr. K. J. Biv- ens, who lives 011 Kichardsou creek, 111 east Monroe township. And one of his best ways of doing it was to climb into a tree on the creek bank and watch for the flsh as they canu to shallow water. !.ast Tues day evening he was thus enjoying himself, when he accidentally fell from the tree and broke hi leg. It was broken in two places just alsive the ankle. Mr. Iliveus is one of the lcst farmers of the town ship, aud his enforced idleness will no doubt make him regret having gone guuiiing for fish that day. The Journal will give away a good buggy right away. The con ditions are simple. If you owe n dollar on suWriplinn aud pay it, we give you a ticket ; if you owe two. two tickets, or if you pay a year in advance you get one ticket, and so 011. One dollar gets the paper a year and we throw iu a ticket which may draw you a splendid buggy. The contest oH'iis tomorrow morning, June !lrd. lie nienilsT the terms: one dollar, one year's subscription, new or old, and one ticket; two dollars, two tickets, etc. There are 110 other conditions, and these must he com plied with rcorted the matter to Chief Howie, who 111 turn went to Mayor Hous ton. A court of inquiry was insti tuted aud a sulMK-na iu the bauds of a (Miliceman brought Lee in as a star witness, and be was put under oath. "Where did you get your liquor!" asked the court sternly, w hile Chief Howie and I'oliccman l.aney cast ut Ijee nrrolonitiiig glances. "Inok here, Imis man, I hain't got V tell dat, is I f" "You must answer the Uestioiis of the (sunt," said Chief How ie. "I's thirsty, Isws, leuime git er drink cr water." The water was given him and the question was again renewed, and this time regret, bitter regret, came Um.ii the witness, and he spoke: "Well, well, I do bate to tell on e man alter I told him I wouldn't." "You are under oath, now, you know, Lee," said the ( 'hit 1 "Boss, IV tired ; lemiiie set down a little." j After a sufficient rest spell he was again put 011 the stand and told hisstorv. Said he Isiugbt the liipior from Jim Medlin, "aud paid for it, too." Still keeping I.ee in custody, the policemen sallied forth with two warrants, one for the arrest of Jim and one for the house. Both were executed at once, and Jim was taken utterly by surprise and without warning. Search was made about the house, and the first thing found was aj huge pile of paper money iu Jim's' trunk, which was not ilislurls-d. There was a new bureau, one of the drawers of w liicli wiis locked. What you got iu that drawer, Jimt" was asked. I.it drawer hain't never Iss'ii opened since 1 had dat burn," said Jim. "When I Isnight it Mr. Oil Ion didn't gimme no key to dat drawer." The drawer that had never Ihtii opened was opened at last by the officers, and beautifully arranged aud labelled were the following assortment of Ixitlles tilled with liipior: Hi pints X Kve.
