in a jiffy. Our informant states that
this will kill the pests ten times quick

ten times more than than the old fash

won't cost much to try it, and there's
lots of flies to experiment on.-Er-

There are flies in Toledo and sugar

since, we called attention. to the con-

it was, with weeds, grass and briars,
and commended the Board of Direc-
tors, for taking proper steps to put the
grounds in such condition as would
meet the approval, and good taste of
our citizens. A new ~culvert has been
constructed on the street leading into
the Cemetery; and the grade will be
much improved and a side walk will
be made, so as to reach the grounds.
The underground is being rapidly cut
down and removed; and the grass and
rubbish taken away; and if lot own
ers will be prompt in responding to
the worthy efforts of the Board, our
Cemetery will will soon present a beau
tiful appearance. If they do not do
80, the Board will feel authorized to
levy a tax on the lot owners, to put
their lots in proper condition.

friends, such as will be an honor to
those left TO guard and protect the city

Reappearanoe of a Man Stolen by
Indians Thirty-three Years Ago.

Thirty-three years ago there lived il
Lewiston, Logan county, a former by
the name of Harris Hopkins, who haf
a child, a boy, between three and foul
years of age. One day, while the
father was working in a field ONE dis
lance from the farm house, the boy
| started from the house across the fields
to see his father. The last seen of the lit
tie fellow was when he left the house.
Hundreds and thousands of people
turned out t. search for the lost child
The river was dragged, the woods
searched, rewardstofsred, but all to
no purpose. After days Of weary and
anxious search the little fellow was
given up by the parents and sympa-
thizing friends. The few Indians liv-
ing in the neighborhood were friendly
and ~peaceable, and no suspicion ever
attached to them, and like all other
even stranger circumstances, the af-
fair was forgotten or only talked of as
a mysterious. disappearance. The Hop
kins family at length left their old
home and settled in Illinois, and up
to ten days ago one of their old
neighbors in Logan county had ex-
pected to see any member of the fam
lily again. The establishment of the
old settlers in and about the neighbor-
hood can be conceived when week be
fore last, a tall man, Drowned by eX-
posure TO sun and storm, and speaking
the brokgH English OF tho half civil
lied Indians, made his appearance at
Lewistown, and claimed to be the
child missed thirty three y. ars ago
he stated that a Cherokee Indian, wan
dering through that section, had en-
ticed him from the field as he was go
ing in search of his father and had
carried him to the far West. The
old chief had treated him as his own
son, and having been taken away at
so young an age the memory of his
parents and former life had fadedfronl
his mind. For thirty odd years lie
had lived as an Indian, and supposed
that he was the son of the old chief,
then high in rank in the Cherokee ma
t on, and very advanced in age, found
himself upon his death bed. Shortly
before he died., and when he knew
thai recovery was hopeless, he called
his adopted son to his bedside and in
formed him who and what he was
As soon as the old chief was dead and
buried, Hopkins came to Logan coun-
ty in search of his parents, whom be
found had moved 10 Champaign City,
Illinois. He, however, remained dur
ing last week at Lewiston to crafty
the curiosity of the old settlers, WHO
had aided in the search for him thirty
three years ago. His reappearance
has caused quite as much excitement
in Logan county as did his sudden
and mysterious disappearance a third
of century ago. The joy of his par
ents when he is restored to them can
only be imagined, but never apFrecia-
ted, save by those who have been sim
ilarly afflicted and similarly rejoiced.
