LYMAN ITEMS
First good sleighing of the season and folks are improving it.
We noticed an exciting game of euchre on the down passsenger on Monday last, as the train stopped at the station....
Farmers are out in quest of strays almost enmass. One of M. L. Sullivant's men was inquiring about a $600 team of mules that disappeared from his stables quite mysteriously lately.
W. A. Conger, Taylor Blakely and families, departed for Missouri, on Wednesday last.
Another dwelling house in town, is the improvement of the week.
The Piper City correspondent asks us to "drive on," and familiarly addresses out town as "sister." Small favors received thankfully.
The sleighing talked about in our first item has nearly disappeared beneath the vernal rays of our almost summer sun.
Our Collector is busy taking in the stamps.
An accident occurred on the G., C. & S. R.R., at Gibson on Friday last, the track spreading with train No. __, letting cars down on the ties, thereby breaking an axle and delaying the train for several hours.
We are now having a general break up -- the crop of mud is good and daily increasing, and gum boots are in good demand.
Change of time on the "G., C. & S.," going south, Springfield Express and Mail, 11:47 a.m. Going North, Springfield and Mail, 4:38 p.m., and Freights most any time after sun rise.
Sewing Machine Agents are plenty we noticed J. A. Dixon in town driving a "Wheeler & Wilson" rig. D. E. Buzick is also on the war path with the same machine.
That first baby (before mentioned) was the recipient of a present from some of the business men of our town.
Our "fine weather" and "vernal sun" went by the board quite suddenly, on Monday night last, and the Jimbometer has gone down below zero.
The Ten-wheeled Engine No. 7 made its first trip over the road, on Monday last.
Wilbur Wait, of Loda, well known to most of our farmers as the accommodating dealer in lumber, farm machinery, etc., was in town for the first time this week.
Frank Wilson of the banking firm Wilson & Sons, of Gilman, was in town Friday last.
Melvin is ahead! on Friday last two of the neighboring farmers got into a dispute, in "Lear's" store, from words they came to blows. Eye witnesses say that mop-sticks were used freely. Kingsley was the Justice before whom they had to appear.
Married, on Tuesday, Feb 13th, Geo. W. Woodward to Miss Georgiana Henney.
