Heariu, of Marion, Ky., and Jas. Daugh-trey, of Ford’s Ferry, took their guns, poles and baskets to spend a few hours in the woods and by the numerous small lakes near Hebron. After spending several hours bunting and fishing, they all took a bath in one of the lakes.Before leaving the water, red spots began to appear on James Daughtrey. Little was thought of it at the time, but since their return to the city of Marion, Messrs. Moore, Haynes and Hearin have found out that the water poisoned them.The lake, not having a stream of fresh water circulating through it and being surrounded by vines and foliage, it is supposed that the fuzz from the vines and vegetation containing certain poison elements around the lake, had settled on the surface of the water.The bodies of the gentlemen are covered with large, red spots, but as they are not very irritating, it is thought that they will soon disappear. At this season of the year it is not wise to go bathing in small lakes and ponds Unless fresh streams run througnthem. _Kell-Curtis.Bud Kell, of Madisonville, and Miss Eliza Curtis, of thia city, eloped to Springfield, Tenn., last Wednesday afternoon, on No. 51, where they were united in marriage. Parental objections caused the elopement.Mr. Kell is well known here and at Madisonville and is an employe of the Madisonville Wagon Works. Miss Curtis is a daughter of Mr. Charlie Curtis and is a pretty and popular young lady.Declared Insane.Oapt. J. H.
