Meager details of an exciting episode.
There is a rumor going the rounds tbat at some time daring the past week a number of people got their feet wet in attempting to cross one of tbe numerous streams in tbe county, while out driving. Onlv a few seem to know 'the particulars of how it happened and they refuse to tell. For a time the affair is said to have had a very serious as welFasa comic side but "all's well that ends well", and now the people who "stayed out" can laugh at and with the fellow who was "all in". Some say the affair transpired by reason of the deceptive distances which are so noted in this coaotry. Certain it is that some of tbe party attempted to jump while others concluded to take no chances and prepared at tbe outset to swim, tbe former coming out on tbe top, but the latter getting dry the quicker. Some of our inland streams seem wider than tbe Missouri at certain times, and twice as deep, depending on the pointof observation. Ask either of two Macs how it happened but don't believe both of them.
