It is quite complete in itself we give it as
written:
"Will you ask the ladies of Coyle arid
the farmers wives, through the Clipper,
to beautify their yards by putting out
flowers. Many of the colored people are
planing to put out more tloweis than
ever before and some of the teachers
have promised to put flowers in the

KNIGHT JACK CASE SETTLED
I he Moss-Knight case i ame up in th%
district court Tuesday. More than
twenty witnesses were examined by tin
attorneys in the ease and the following
from the Star states the position of Hit
court in this case:
"The famous jack braying injunction
case from Coyle was up for hearing iq
the district court yesterday and Judge
A. H. HustoD spent much time in hear-
ing the numerous witnesses pro and cou,
ami finally decided that there was not
enough evidence presented to warrant
Aim iu making the Injunction perman-
ent.
During the hearing of the ease some
of the witnesses humorously suggested
to the court that there were many Coyle
peo'.le w no were no; able to success fu"y
court me muses or to flirt with the gods
of dreams without the musical assistance
of the aforesaid j»?k. *
Therefore it was the judgement ami
direction of the court that, the jack may
bray, even continually, H he cares to ex
ert the necessary bellows power. '

How Two Women, Justly Incensed,
Did Away With the Disturber
of Their Reat.
A north Bide family gave a "big”
dinner recently and left a good part of
it on tho tablo until the next morning.
In tho night. Mr. Rat smelled the good
things left on ths table, aunk his teeth
info ths bufter, scratched the oyster
dressing out on the table and then,
getting his feet well soaked in the
cranberry sauce, seemed to delight In
leaving his red tracks all over the
white table cloth.
The next night the two women
members of the family were in the
houso alone They heard the rat in-
dustriously gnawing his way through
the kitchen floor. He finished the job
and spent the greater part of the night
exploring the dining room and kitchen,
as he could be plainly beard In the
stlllneES.
When sleep became Impossible the
two women. In spite of their natural
fear of rats, got-out of bed and chased
the rat back down the hole he had
gnawed In tho floor. Then they laid
a piece of wood over the opening. But
the rat was persistent. He pushed
the wood away and began his nightly
scampering. 'The two women got out
of bed again, and, placing a sadiron
n\<" ‘ho hole, the"- - v. i vengeance
on the disturber of their rest, with
all points of egress In the shape of
doors closed, there was no hope of
•i cape for the rat.
A. .er a chase of half an hour t
rat finally took refuge In the kfndlli
box behind the stove. A sewh
board was placod over the box ai
♦he rat was a captive. But that d
not end matters. The next proble
was the execution. Tired out, tl
two women sat down to reflect Thi
thought of hot water to scald t]
enemy to death. But they decided
was too cruel. So they dreses
got a wash tub, placed kindling b<
and all in the tub and carried the ti
out under the hydrant The wati
vas turned on and the kindling be
was held down under the water At
thus the rat died. This Btory mere
explains the screams that came fro
tlie house mentioned. Of course tl
neighbors knew the trouble when the
saw the rat the next morning, but the
didn’t know what to think of it unt
the situation was explained.—Indiai
