Knapp's team took a long distance run Sunday Light that caused Mr. Knapp considerable until he located them, which was not until about ten o'clock Monday morning.

He had them tied over in old Bradford Sunday evening, and just at dusk he went out to see if they were all right and found they had broken loose and were just disappearing in the distance, headed for Old Chickasaw. Mr. knapp and John Beck took a team and starting in pursuit followed the runaway team to Chickasaw but failed to find them. After searching until midnight without success they returned home, got some supper, and started out again. The team was found at John Bird's place the next morning.

They had run up to Chickasaw, circled around and came back to Mr. Bird's place where they ran through two barbed wire fences and were found standing in the timber not more than thirty rods from home. Mr. Knapp was much relieved to find the horses unhurt as they are a fine pair of roadsters. Aside from the tongue being broken the buggy was not much damaged.

W. Hall, who died at Raymond, S. Wednesday, but he was very much to learn upon his arrival here that his father was to be burieu at Raymond.

It seems that he received a telegram Thursday stating that his father had died and asking him if he would come to the funeral. Knowing that the family burial lot, wherein his mother was buried, was in Greenwood cemetery, Nashua, Iowa, he supposed of course that the burial ould be at this place, and after sending a message to the effect would meet them at Nashua, left for here. It is supposed that the relatives, after waiting some time for an answer from Mr. Hall, and not getting it. returned to their home in the country and proceeded with the funeral services.

It was indeed a sad misunderstanding lor the Editor Bishop and Wife, of ficw amo- ton, Lose thsir Baby Girl. Mary Eleanor, the little fourteen- months-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. A.

Bishop, of New Hampton, passed away on Monday, March 4, after an illness of but two days, and one that baffled the skill of medical science. It was thought at first that the babe was suffering from a cold and a physician was called, but as it did not seem to improve under the treatment it was thought that possibly it had the croup. Later it went into spasms and two other physicians were called, but it was difficult to decide just what was the matter with the child, but it was thought that perhaps it might have bumped its head some time, causing a blood clot on the brain or bursting a blood It lingered for two daj when it died. The deepest sympathy of many friends in this vicinity is the grief stricken parents who been called upon to part with loved one. Kade a Target of Kim.

their with have their Planning to Rebuild Burned District. L. A. Bucklin has an order with Bullen Bros, for cement building blocks to rebuild the structure which was burned on his lot on Main street in February. Mr.

Bucklin has plans for a building with 22-foot front aud 50 feet in depth, one story, but he may conclude later to enlarge on these plans. Fred Keller is also making plans to rebuild and will probably put up a building SO feet in length. He has not determined whether he will build with cement blocks or brick. Mr. Richardson is undecided as to what he will do about rebuilding.

However, it is pretty safe to assert that the burned district will all be rebuilt this summer. Nashua is too live a town to have a gaping vacancy on the best business lots on Main street and it is our prediction that before another winter rolls around a fine block of buildings will have replaced the unsightly ruins left by the fire. Woodmen Take in Class of Nineteen. There was big doings in Woodmen circles last night, a class of nineteen being taken through the forest an initiated into the mysteries of woodcraft.

The death of C. A. Greeley brings back memories of e.irlv days to Editor Bailey, of the Deco'rah Republican, and he comments as follows: A Nashua dispatch dated Monday, the jeports the death of once distinguished citizen of Northeastern Iowa. Chas. A.

Greeley and E. P. Greeley acquired the property where the town of Nashua is located and when the Illinois Central railway was built laid out a town site known is Nashua. It was so named after the lome town of the Greelevs in New Hampshire. It was at this" time that -ho old town where was the "Little 3rown Church in the Vale," got its death stroke.

The Greeleys got one of the best boomers that Iowa )ossessed to come to Nashua, secured him a newspaper plant and Andy 7elt started "The Nashua Post." Its columns had all the life, snap and vivacity of a city of ten thousand )0pulation, and it aided the Greelej build a town and make a fortune. Fora few weeks in 1859 Felt Jampbell tried to maintain the Decorah Democrat in the village of Do- jorah. They occupied a building on Vinnebago street, about where ichrubbe's book store now is. But it didn't pay. Andy quit and Camp- Dell loaded the ollice on wheels and tarted overland for Mantorville, linn.

Felt located in Fayette for a imo and was a wandering planet or omet--bright, witty, impudent and independent, so long as ho stayed in owa. From Nashua he went to Kanas, and got into the newspaper busi- ess at Seneca, Kansas, and acquired reputation that won for himself the flice of Lieutenant Governor for at east one term. It should be said that ter tho War of the Rebellion began Vndy's patriotism made him a red- ot republican, and he remained such long as we knew him, and wo met ira frequently in district conventions or ton or a dozen years after he lo- ated in Nashua.

He hastened to the door aud as he put his head outside was met by a fusilade of bullets from the direction of the three men running down the middle of tne street. The town was soon awakened and a posse organised, pursuit of the men being uuclertaked at once." The Farmers' Savings Bank of Masonville was blown UD with nitroglycerine and the safe "rifled of by three men, and after a chase by a posse of farmers and citizens lasting all day Thursday, two of the trio were rundown and captured near Manchester late in the afternoon. The third man, who had the bulk of the booty, made his escape. Wedded in St.
