Julian. The Odd Fellows' picnic last Wednesday was one of the erand est events of the season. Although the day was not as good as it might have been the crowd was large and the affair altogether was a nice one. Major Brown, of Kingman, and Rev. Bright, of Topeka, were the orators and did themselves proud.

Everybody had a good time and couldn't help it. The promoters certainly did a noble work and we believe every citizen of our town realizes it. A crowd of hoodlums from Hutchinson and Stafford, ten in number were here last week, endeavoring to make an impression upon the populace of this community and succeeded so far as to spend the night in the "hold over" and perform some labor on our streets Monday morning. They undertook a game they could not work, that of riding roughshod over the rights of peaceful citizens and as a result reaped a just reward for such proceedure. Our city will not put up with such dastardly actions and all who are thus inclined had better keep scarce of our berg.

Now Use for Catfish. In Portland, according to the Oregonlan, the familiar catfish, figures as a hardy pioneer and a valued adjunct to the street department, all because the terra cotta sewers and drains, especially those in the lower part of the city, frequently get choked. If the sewer is not broken, it can be cleaned by passing a rope through it, to be pulled backward and forward until the obstruction Is loosened and removed. The deputy superintendent of streets has had a great deal of such work to look after, and the worry connected with getting the rope through has gone far toward thinning his hair. He has at last discovered a quick, sure and easy method.

He goes to the river, catches a catfish, ties a string to its tail, drops it down a manhole into the sewer, and It at once starts for the river, and forces Its way through any obstruction not as solid as brick, dragging the string after It. Then the deputy goes as far down the sewer as he deems necessary, and picks up the string, which he uses to draw a wire through the sewer, and with this a rope is pulled through, and the sewer Is soon cleared; Another Kind. wish you could tell me how to S3t rid of the grip."
