Puzzle.

Here is puzzle for young arithme-
ticians and others who like to crack an
arithmetical nut now and then to try
their wits uron: Two Arabs sat down
to dinner and were accosted by stran-
ger who wished to join their party, say
ing that he could get no provisions in
that part Of the country; if they would
admit him to eat only on equal share
with themselves he would willingly pay
them the whole. The frugal meal con-
sisted of eight small loaves of bread
five of which belonged to one of the
Arabs and three to the other. The
stranger, having eaten a third part OF
the eight loaves, arose and laid before
them eight pieces of money, saying
"My friends, there is what l promised
you; divide among you according tc
your rights" A dispute arose respect.
ing a division of the money, and refer.
ence was made to the cadi, who divided
it justly. Query, how did he divide tht
pieces of money?

Shooting ARRAY.

Great excitement was created in Ok
ford last Friday night about ten o'clock
from the shooting Of Lewis Guental, a
young Frenchman about eighteen years
of age, by Frederick Jones, an overseer
on the railroad, and a son of General
Jones of Akron. 1t seems from what
evidence we heard, that young Guental
had asked Jones for another job on the
road, different from the one in which he
was engaged. Jones told him that he
had no authority to change hands, but
that he should finish the job he was at
and then he would put him where he
desired to be. This, for some reason or
other, greatly excited Guental, who went
for him, when Jones knocked him down.
Jones then went into another room.
Guental followed and scuffle ensued in
which Jones was thrown down on some
beer kegs, and pounded by the other.
Jones getting away from him, went out
doors, was gone very short time, when
the door was opened, and the affray be-
gan anew inside. After short scuff1e
they fell, Jones being under. A pistol
was discharged by Jones, the ball Of
which took effect in Guental's side
Jones was arresteds on Saturday and
brought before Esquire Justice for hear,
ing. Owing to the lateness of the houl
the trial was postponed until Tuesday

Organs.

Weare sometimes asked what has pro-
duced the rage for Cabinet Organs? Now
this peculiar phase in musical taste is
produced from various causes. First,
they are something new. And the
American people are fond of novelty.
And then it has become fashionable to
have parlor organs, and there are null
titudes who would rather be out of the
world than out of the fashion. And
then it must be conceded that the higher
priced organs have decided advantage
over the piano or melodeon in conse-
quence of the various stops with which
they are furnished, which enables the
performer, in effect, to play on a num-
Der of instruments in concert, with the
same manipulations required to play on
a piano or melodeon. The stops can be
shut off by the performer at pleasure,
and the organ converted into single
instrument, which accounts to some ex-
tent for its popularity. Persons wish
ing to obtain first-class organ can
save fifty dollars by applying for one to
Milton w. Brown, agent for furnishing
organs varying in price from fifty to six
hundred dollars.

Neck Tie Parties.

As this is the time Of year when par
ties are most in vogue, we are frequent
ly enquired of as to the style ofthe par
ties most common this season. This is
a pretty hard question to answer as there
is quiet a variety. There is one kind,
however, which is now creating quite a
sensation in some places both for its
oddity and the amusement which it af-
fords. Its called the ''Neck Tie Party"
For information to those interested, we
would say that it is one in which every
lady attending the party makes bow
or neck tie of the same material of
which the dress is made which she in
tends wearing at the party. These are
taken to where the party is to be held
and placed in bag. When the gentle
men arrive each one must go to the bag
and take out neck tie. 1t is then his
duty to wait upon the lady, during the
evening, whose dress is made of the
same material as the neck tie which he
has drawn. 1t is desirable that each lady
wear a different pattern at the party. Thil
will doubtless be the "rage" this winter

A Dead BODY Found.

A farmer named Selick, living five OF
six miles northeast of Orrville, went
out to examine some wster courses on
Tuesday last, when he found the dead
body of man lying in his field. The
body was entirely naked, and bore nc
evidence of having been foully dealt
with. The deceased appears to be about
thirty-five years of age, and is unknown
to any person in the neighborhood. Ar
effort is being made to find his clio thing
and gain some clue to his late place o.
residence.
Since putting the above in type, We
learn that the remains passed through
Orrville on Saturday evening on the
way to this county. 1t was ascertained
that he was German who had been in
this country about six months, and wa;
crazy at the time he left his companions
at Berlin, in this county. 1t is said ht
has no family connections in this coun-
try

Critical Surgical Operation.

The Wooster Republican says: Last
week, DIR. L. Firestone, assisted by Drs,
Wilson and W. w. Firestone, performed
a very delicate and critical surgical
operation, on the son of Mrs. Living
ston, aged five years. A grain of corn
was lodged in the patients windpipe so
firmly as to resist all ordinary appliance
to remove it. After consultation it was
concluded to use the last resort-the
knife. The boys windpipe was accord
ingly cut and the grain Of corn success
fully removed. Such operations require
a cool head and skillful hand.

A IsTMAs POEM.
BY E BURNS YOUNG.

"Did you say that Merry Christmas hai
comet" asked an old man Of group of merr,
BOYS, who came Tomping into the room wher'
he sat pensively musins before the fire. Come
gather around me, and shall tell you a tru'
story about Merry Christmas which spen
in an eastern city,
s.December's form had let her shadow fall,
And hoary shone the meadows, fountains, all.
The cold blear wind, quick whistled 'mong the
| trees.
While snow, and sleet, both few before the
| breeze,
The fields of all green verdure had been stripp'd
The cold hoar frost had all the nowrets nipped
And dimmed had been the modest violets blush
| And naught was heard of robin, lark or thrush
Upon the door-stoop of palace home,
wand'rer sat, uncared for, and alone.
She clasped her rags, to shield her from the gust
With thanks to God, she ate her. last dry crust
The snow-ft robe (they say of paradise,
To hide the guilt, and shame, which doth arise
From sinful man-fell fast upon the street.
While she-alone-was called her God to meet
In vain, she gazed within those princely halls,
For colder hearts were there than marble walls
The morn has come; the world is white and
clear
The robe is spread; the earth no more is drear
Beside the stoop form of lowly clay,
From which the life, the soul, had passed away.
Her beauty once had been-like fragrant rose
But now, her wasted form no beauty knows
They bore her form from thence with jest and
smile,
They thought to treat a vagrant so, no guile.
Her tomb was i'll ll-prepared-,tvas ChriStma as

A Good Joke.

A good joke is told of a couple of sub
contractors who undertook to clear the
track of rocks somewhere on the rail-
road between Oxford and Mt. Vernon.
They began by borrowing a flask of
powder, and having drilled hole in a
small rock, they poured in half of the
powder and tried to set it off, but it
would not go. They then poured water
into the hole, and drilled the load out,
coming to the conclusion that the rock
must have been damp that the load didn't
60 off. They concluded to try another,
So they drilled down about four feet
and poured in the balance of their pow
der. They then got another man to try
his luck, but it still wouldn't 60. They
then thought that the best thing they
could do, would be to leave the powder
in the rock to see if it would not, when
it would get wet, s,ceH and burst the
rock. We have not heard whether il
did or didn't, but we rather think i
didn't.

A Sell,

Alta theatre in Baltimore since the
death of General Lee, occurred an anus
ing incident: An actor made compli-
mentary speech to "the greatest General
that ever lived, now dead and gone from
our midst to the land of the blest;''
(great applause from the rebel audience
"The world" continued the actor slow
ly, "has never seen his equal for nobili-
ty of character, for heroic fortitude, fol-
christian patriotism" Tremendous
cheering.) "Though dead his glorious
example remains with us. The youth Of
our country will adopt it as their model
and future generations, while virtue and
worth are esteemed, will do honor to the
memory of Americas greatest hero.'
wild and long continued cheering.

Cheering ceased, and rebel enthusiasm
wilted under the applause from the col
ored gallery.

Shut yOur Gates

Why is it that so many people are SO
careless about shutting their gates at
night. Next to leaving cellar door
open on the pavement on a dark night
is the swinging open of gates in un-
lighted portions of the town. Serious
accidents have occurred from this neg
lect. 1t creates such an agreeable feel
ing to run against one of these obstruc-
tions when you are least expecting it( y
We heard of gentleman not long since
who was carrying home plate of but

against an iron gate with such force, al

Property owners should see to it thai
weights are either attached to theil
gates, or that the gates be made so as tt
swing inward instead of across tn,

A Warming.

The country is again flooded with the
circulars of the New York counterfeit
money concerns. Quite number of our
citizens have received these circulars
which make very liberal offers. All we
have to say, is, have nothing to do what
ever with any such humbugs if you
wish to save your money, and not get
yourself into trouble. A young man in
New Philadelphia lately invested in one
of these concerns. He expected $500
The charges on the package were $l3
He paid it and instead of money, found
only pine chip and an old newspaper
