H. W. Blain has received his commission as postmaster of this city. Sunday night as Curt Shaw was accompaning Miss Alta Hershey home from church, he was accosted on the street near the Hershey residence and struck a terrific blow on the left side of the face with a brick supposed to have been thorwn by Bert Hershey. He fell to the ground insensible, and was picked up soon afterwards by Frank Hay and others, taken home and a physician summoned, who found upon examination that his jaw was knocked out of place and the head badly bruised but no bones broken.

Ile is now in a critical condition, but hopes of his recovery are entertained. It seems that Mr Shaw has been paying attentions to Miss Hershey against the will of her father, and Bert took it upon himself to settle the matter before it should reach a more serious nature. Bert skipped soon the affair occurred, and although officers are on the lookout for him he has not yet been heard from. As both families are highly respected and popular citizens of our city, we are very sorry to have to chronicle the unfortunate affair. LYNDON GRAPITIC.
