 Manchester, Mich., April 21,-Miss Esther O'Niel went to Adrian Saturday afternoon to visit lier parents a few days.

 Miss Blanche Coulson, of Brooklyn, was the guest of her aunt, Mrs. J. A. Goodyear, Saturday and Sunday.

 Mrs. Barbara Holmes spent Sunday in Iron Creek.

 W. H. Lehr and Wm. Sloat were in Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti Friday on business.

 Jonathan Holmes is ill with the mumps.

 Miss Pearl and Hazel Cole, of Clinton, are visiting at Homer Fish's.

 Mrs. A. M. Kiebler, who has been ill for several weeks, is able to be out again.

 Miss Marie Kirchhofer gave a reception to the faculty of the high school and members of the senior class Friday evening, and they were delightfully entertained. A guessing contest pertaining to literature and art was one of the features of amusement. An elaborate spread was partaken of during the evening.

 Mervin Green, of Ypsilanti, came here Saturday to spend a week or so at Wm. Burtless'.

 Misses Ida Uhr and Emma Layher, of Jackson, spent Sunday in town.

 Ada and May Collum, of Clinton, visted at John Jackson's over Sunday.

 Dr. W. A. Klopfenstein went to Chicago Saturday night and will attend the graduation and alumni banquet of the Chicago Homeopathic Medical college to be held next Tuesday.

 Saturday afternoon as Miss Underhill, who was driving Isaac Hall's horse, started for home, one line became entangled in the front wheel of the buggy and the horse began to back. He continued to back and turn until the buggy was a complete wreck. Miss Underhill was pinned between the top and seat with the rest of the debris piled on top of her. Bystanders quickly came to her assistance and after cutting the lines succeeded in getting the horse loosened from the wreckage. Miss Underhill, who is quite an elderly lady, escaped with practically no injuries, which was almost a miracle. The horse was badly frightened, but the crowd of men kept him from running. He was quite badly cut about the hips.
