,T. Our local bard, hearing of the dearth of births, deaths, marriages, and such interesting data as are us ually the reporter's salvation, has come to our rescue with a metrical' rendition of the most eventful inci dent of recent date. f HL TR.U:r.L}\ Or' iU XX'S ROCK In lonely grandeur on the rock The gray old eagle <tood.

But now. alas, he hides ins head Behind the balsam hough; His heart is sad. his pride is dead, Oid king, what ails tiuc now? The answer came in a whirling sound. As a thing of shini-mr steel Sailed to the top of Fisgahround And made the i tiier rvy!
