OUR DARLING TEDDY.
Our Teddie is a nice younRman;

Their darling Roosevelt.
Of all the presidents we've had,
He'* first to have tb* srall,
To ask the kinkv-headed ruce,
Inside that sacred hall;
Hut then, you see, he saw a chance
To bit the South a welt,
Ï And ail the colored t?als went in
To dine with Roosevelt.
Thedatus Is in their long-tail gowns,
Cut too short at the top,
Made goo-gooo eyes at Tcddie, dear,
Tiil they could hardly stop;
1 The President—God save the mark —
With pride before them knelt;
And then and there thev harmonised,
The coons and Koosevelt.
A lane is very straight, indeed,
That never has a bend;
j This promenading with the coons
Will some day have an end;
His epitaph will he in full;
Kach word correctly s|»elt:
"Here lie two hearts that beat as one,
A coon, and Roosevel'."

STRANGE ACTION OF TWO MEN
Supposed Attempt Made to do
County Attorney Farrar
Bodily Harm.
Was an attempt made last night to
do County Attorney Bowd Farrar
bodily harm?
That is the question that ie on the
lips of every one today.
Outside of the strange action of
tw> men there is not evidence to
establish the fact, but it ie strongly
believed that an effort was made last
night about 10 o'clock to either
hold up and rob or assassinate Mr.
Farrar.
At the hour above designated he
was returning home in his buggy
accompanied by Frank Forston who
lives on hie place.
When approaching the crossing
of the Central just this side of Mr.
Farrar'e house two men stepped
from the side of the road in front of
the horse. The animal became
frightened at their movement and
wheeled around in the road. The
men did not speak and their strange
action aroused the suspicion of Mr.
Farrar and he came back to town
and reported the matter to Sheriff
Minnick. The Sheriff and one or
two of bis deputies returned to the
scene with Mr. Farrar, but in the
darkness they were not able to see
any one. The officers accompanied
Mr. Farrar home and from Mrs.,
Farrar it was learned that two1
strange men had been to/the house :
twice that night. The^fecond time
they were noticed by* Mrs. Farrar
was about !» o'clock. They were
walkiug and came in front of the
house. They went around the house
and then left, going down the road
toward town.
Mr. Farrar was seen by a reporter
this morning immediately after he
I came to town and asked about the
matter. He said:
"Further than stepping in front of
my horse the men made no ottier
demonstration, but their action ap
peared to be a little bit mysterious.
They did not speak and I have no
way of proving that they had any
evil intentions toward me, but their
t.i&nner led me to form certain con
clusions."
The officers will make a further
investigation of the matter.
