A CAPTAINS STORY.

On my wny across the Sound !

John Streeter and Asa Norton

aDuut threescore, and had followed
the sea mcst OF his life. Norton
was CO sidel ably younger, but still
seaman Of much experience The
su ct of abolition OF floyging in
our navy came up in course Of con

pressed himself decidedly in favor
of that time honored institution, the
cat o'nine tails.

"For my part" said Morton, al

Your treason poisons the sweet south wine,
And mildews the loveiest flowers ensiltned
In your homes Of taste and art.
And in many happy home, laid bare,
Your names have scorched the sod;
And curses, floating upon the air
From childless parents and widows, bear

Deceased Soldiers.

The bodies of WALLACE CoHURN, son Of
o. r. Coburn, of Bazetta, and J. ID. HUNT,
son of Mr.. Samuel Hunt, of Champion,
were brought to this place, on the cars,
last Thursday evening. They both died
from injuries received at the battle Of
Winchester.
The deceasc of Mr.. Hunt was unex-
pected to his friends, his parents having
been in town on the day preceding that on
which his remains arrived here, expecting
to meet him, improved in health, and able
to return home with them. The first in
t~elligence they had of his decease was on
the arrival of the hearse at their doorl
Young Hunt was a brave soldier, and
fought calamity at Winchester, until he
fell with a limb shattered by a ball.
While PROSTATE he urged his companions
on, telling them he could no more assist
them. The funeral of Mr.. Coburn took
place in Bazetta, on Friday last, and was
attended by a very large concourse of peo-
pie. An impressive funeral sermon was
delivered by Prof. Rhodes, of Hiram.
The funeral of Mr.. Hunt took place on
the same day, in Champion, and was also
very numerously attended. The funeral
discourse was by Rev. Wade, at the Pres
byterian Church at the Centre.

Major T. D. Edwards Killed.

Deep sorrow was universally felt in
Warren, on Sunday last, on thereception Of
a despatch by Mr.. George Tayler, from
Lieut.. Oscar o. Miller, stating that Major
TINorHr D. EDWARDS, of the 10Th Ohio
Regiment, had been killed by a cannon
ball, at the battle of Pittsburg Landing
Major Edwards was of the first in Trum.
bull county to enroll himself among the
defenders of the Union. He served as
first Sergeant in Co. C, 10Th Regiment, in
the three months campaign in Virginia.
On the return of the Regiment, and when
it was determined to recruit it for the
three years service, he was appointed by
Governor Dennison Major of the 10TH
In this responsible position he was prompt,
efficient and faithful, and no truer or
drawer Ohioan has laid down his life in
defence of the country, than was our own
gallant Edwards.
At this writing we have not received
any of the particulars of his death. No
doubt he fell when Drawing the imminent
perils of the hard fought field.
Although it is glorious to die for ones
country in so righteous a cause as is in
volved in the present struggle, it is yet
hard and saddening TO see one so good, so
noble and so brave, striker down in the
vigor of youthful manhood, as was Major
Edwards.
We presume, if it is at all practicable,
the remains of Major Edwards will be
brought here for final interment, with APP
propriate ceremonies, due the memory of
the young soldier-patriot.

New Varieties of Potatoes.

At this time when so large a proportion
of the different kinds of potatoes raised
in Ohio are infected with the rot, it is OF
Importance to the farmers to procure new
varieties for seed. Mr.. Henry K. Hap
good of this place has procured at consid-
cradle trouble and expense, several new
kinds, the most of them from seed bro't
from South America, among which are
the Garnet Chill, Andes, Copper Mine,
Cusco, and Pink Eye Rusty Coat" We
have tried all of these, and all, without
exception, are good potatoes, and two or
three of them, excellent.
As they were, last season entirely free
from rot, they bid fair to be valuable ac-
cessions.

Capt Geo. E. Wood.


Our toSnsman, Capt. Geo. L. Wood, Of
Co. D. 9TH Regiment, won unfading lau.
rels and earned an cnviablc soldierly rep
utation at the battle of Winchester. Al
though he was on that part of the fercely
contested field where leaden hail flew
thick and fast, we are happy to learn that
he sustained no serious injury. He, how
ever, made some hair-breadth escapes, as
the following extract from a letter of a
member of the Seventh Regiment, pub
lished in the Painsville Telegraph, will
testify. The letter says:
Capt. Wood proved himselft to be among
the bravest of the brave. A stranger to
anything like fear, he stood in the leaden
rain, waving his sword and cheering his
men. The ten bullet holes in his clothes
show where he was in the fight"
The only injury he sustained was in
having a tooth Knocked outbya fragment
of a stone striking him in the mouth,
while leading his company in the charge
against the rebels at the stone wall, just as
a cannon ball struck a stone, smashing and
scattering it about.

Naval School Examination.

Great events of public interest so fill
our columns this week that we can give
only a brief notice of that interesting eX-
animation. On the Sth inst, according
to notice, from l02, A. NJ, to 3, P. NJ,
there might have been seen at the High
SchooLroom in this place, some of the
finest looking young men of the three
counties of Ashtabula, Trumbull and Ma
honing. About 30 took seats for the ex-
animation. They were fully supplied with
paper and pencils, and at the word from
Mr.. Caldwell, of jefferson, they all made
ready for the exhibition of talent. Each
entered his name, age, residence, and
number drawn by lot, on a slip of paper,
which the Committee laid away for refer
ence. Then commenced the work of wri-
ting down 80 questions on Arithmetic,
proposed by the Committee. A careful
observer, might have selected the young
commanders even at this carly stage of
the examination. Here was the prompt,
vigorous, decisive action and expression Of
countenance, which is always inseparable
from efficient control of ourself or of 9TH
ers. In the meantime, the medical ex-
aminers were doing duty in an adjoining
room, determined that no young. man
should go from their hands to suffer the
modification of being rejected at New
port. Twenty-four presented their pa
pers TO the academic committee for in
s~pection, the questions having been cop
led from dictation, and the answers writ
ten out by the candidates. From these
papers the committee passed upon their
qualifications in five particulars: Order,
Penmanship, Spelling, Use of Capital Let
tiers, and Arithmetic through the Fun
damental Rules" Both committees ar
ranged the candidates in 4 classes. We
learn from one of the examiners that each
Board sent their report to Washington
That some 5 or G of the candidates stood
No. l on each list, but that only two, one
from Ashtabula, and one from TrumbuIl,
were No. l, on both lists. The fortunate
young commodore is not known at this
writing. We are confident that the coun-
try will yet have a favorable record to en-
ter for more than one of these young
men.

The 18th ohio Battery.

This battery was formed largely Of
Trumbull county men. 1t is not to be
wondered that the news that-the 14th
Ohio Battery had been captured by the
enemy caused great anxiety in the place,
for several days past. The anxiety was
increased on Monday by a report that
Capt. Burroughs had telegraphed to
gainesville that his command had been
badly cut up. We have no doubt the
brave boys stood by their guns to the last,
and yielded only when resistance was lon
ger impossible. We hope to hear more sat
isfactory and defenite news before we 90

Capt. ]. z. Asper.

Capt. Asper arrived home, in this place
on last Saturday evening. lie was wound
ed at the battle of Winchester so severely
as to be unable to continue in active duty.
He was struck by a musket ball in the
thigh, the bullet passing from the front
around the thick bone, and passing out
nearly opposite where ii entered. The
Capt. is considerably debilitated from the
effects of the wound, but We are glad to
learn that it is gradually healing. and we
hope soon to see him again in full health.
The Captains companions in arms at
Winchester, speak in terms of warm
praise of his bravery in that severe battle.

Death of q Pioneer .

Ma. SAMUEL BACON of Bazetta died,
March Doth, ultimo, in the eighty ninth
year of his age. The deceased emigrated
from New Jersey, and settled in Warren,
in the Spring of 1907, and endured with
his family, the hardships o pioneer life, in
the then unbroken wildernesa.
In 1916, he removed to his farm and
mill property in Bazetta, where he resided
till his death. Being in his day, one of
the most prominent business men of the
county, he secured, by his equitable deal
ing, the esteem of all who knew him, and
leaves a name which will be sacredly en-
balmed among the "reminiscences of early
days. During his early life, he was a o
sistent member of the Regular Baptist
Church, and, for many of his last years,
has been a pillar in the Disciple Church,
in Bazetta, in which communion he died.
Blessed are the dead. who die in the Lord"

Three hundred thousand dollars stock
of the Atlantic and Great Western Rail-

short time, on account of the inducements
held out to the road by the oil interests.
Work is shortly to be resumed on the
