evening.

JoHN MCCORMICK, of Meigsville town
ship, came near having his Express
Wagon torn to pieces on monday NOR
ming. He had driven to town for the
purpose of ~transacting some business
with the steamer Mink; and, while
doing so, very foolishly left his team
standing near the Wharfboat unhitch'
ed. Meantime, the Mink blew her
whistle, and the horses started on a run
up the street, where they attempted
to turn a corner, and only succeeded
in upsetting the wagon. No material
damage was done fortunately; but we
will venture if somebody's child had
been run over, or the team had run
into a window of one of our business
houses, that Mr.. Mccormick would
have found his pocket-book relieved of
enough greenbacks to purchase at least
a hundred hitching straps, and also to
pay for the trouble of tying them to as
many hitching posts. 1t would be a
good idea for our Town Council to
make it the duty of the marshal to take
in charge every team, left on the
streets, that is not securely hitched;
and, also, to make it the duty of the
Mayor to fine the owners of said teams.
The town, also, should provide hitch
ing-posts, at convenient distances,
throughout the entire town.

Coughs ApOstrOphe 10 Water

The following most eloquent
"Apostrophe to water" by Paul
Denton, a Methodist preacher, is
used by John B. Cough in his tenn
p~erance lecture as argument. II is,
indeed, a consecutive burst of the
beautiful, thrilling and truthful pas
sages, such as a rarely be found
IN such words:
Look at this, We sons of earth!
Behold it! 1t is a beverage that
was brewed by the hands of the Al
mighty HIMSELF Not in simmer
ing still on smoking fires, choked
with poisonous gases, and surround.
ed by the stencil of sickening doors
and rank corruption, does our Fa,
Their In Heaven prepare the precious
ssenc of life, the pure cold water,
but in the green glade, and grassy
dell, where the deer wanders and
the child loves to play, there God
brews it; and down Iii the deep val
ley, where the fountains murmur
and the rills sing. and high upon
the mountain tops, where storm
clouds brood, and the thunders
crash and far away out on the wide
sea, where the hurricane bowls mu-
sic and the big waves roll the cho-
rus sweeping the march of God.
There he 5rews iJ-that beverage
Of health giving water. And ev-
it is a thing of beauty;
gllmmering IN the summer ram,
shining IN the ice gem, till the trees
all seem turned into living jewels;
spreading a living veil over the set
ting sun, or in white gauze around
midnight moon; sporting in the
oa~taraets, sleeping in the glaziers,
dancing in the hail showers; folding
It's curtain softly around the windy
and weaving the many col
,red iris-whose warp Is In The
am drops Of the earth-whose
WOOL is in the sunbeams of heaven;
III checked over with celestial flow
RS by the mystic hand of rcfection,
till always it is beautiful-that
life water. No poison bub-
lies on the brink; It's foam brings
10 sadness OF murder.

Mrs. Nancy Stuart, formerly ofthis place,

had been a member of the NJ. L. Church

to the Sta te of Ohio in 1922, and settled near

ments previous notice, summoned into the

up his final account. Truly, many of the
pioneers of this section OF the country, have
been called from their labors during the
last twelve mouths. The fathers, where
are they? and the echo answers, where? !
Mr.. Bird possessed much kindness of heart,
and many good qualities, and was respected
and esteemed by all who knew him. His
remains, accompanied by his weeping fami-

STowE's CIRCUs.-On next Tuesday,
August Both, Stoves Circus will visit
McConnelsville, and give two entertain
ments. Their institution is said to be a
"perfect circus and we doubt not but
those who like to frequent such places
will be as we'll entertained as Is custom
airy. The Baby Julia" a child eques-
trienne, is described as being the pref
test child and prettiest rider known
to the world. The "Perry Family"
consisting of E. W. Perry. Minnie Per-
~, and the "Baby Julia" just mention
ed, are said to be riders of unequal
daring and skill in the world. The
Wilcox Bros, the won derful Tram
polinists, are also with them, and will
perform. some of their most interesting
feats. Prof. Frank Stowe and A. l..
Melodies are described as being
"Clowns" of undisputed merits. Adj

Dress OF AMERICAN GIRLs.-The New
York Times is credited with the follow
ing sensible comment upon the pre-
vailing style of dress among American
girls:
The principal of a Boston school has
suggested to parents and guardians
that the girls at an approaching eXhi-
bition shall be simply and plainly dress
ed. The recommendation is universal
ly applicable, and should be universal
ly needed. Not only at school exhibi-
tons, but at school every day, Ameri-
can girls are overdressed The fashions
are followed as thoughtlessly by them
as by their mothers; and from very
early ages they are accustomed to wear
jewelry, aad to spend money with a
freedom which leads to future improv-
idence. We dare not hope that the
Boston teacher will succeed in his at
tempt to inaugurate reform. If he
should. he will be one of the benefac-
tors of his race. The practice he dep
recatrs is the source OF much frivolitv,
and an extravaganza which too often
bears bitter fruit in after life.

ANOTHER runaway on Tuesday,
Frank Bemis left his young mare on
the street IN charge of a small boy, who,
on the mare becoming FESTIVE, turned
her loose, and let her run whittier she
might. She made her way across the
bridge, and was. then Stopped. A buck
board to which she was hitched, was
torn to pieces.

ter q. Hood, of the Marietta Times, in

McConnelsville, was in town, on Thurs

Ok last Friday, four or five individ-
uals, of Ifa'ta, were arraigned before
James Watkins, Esq, on a charge of
stealing chickens, and, pleading guilty,
were finel five dollars each, and the
costs of prosecution. The stealing was
perpetrated as a "joke;" but the pay
ing of the fine was not thought to v
of fun in the slightest degree.

GREAT SALT LAKE.-The follow
ing account of Great Salt Lake will
be read with interest, as the Nor
mons are likely to figure somewhat
conspiciously in our western afr
fairs:
The lake, it is said, is one huRd-
red miles long, and fifty miles wide;
also, that the water III 1t is double
the strength, or twice as salt as is
the water in the ocean. Many are
the streams, large and small, that
empty INTO it, Int no stream flows
from it. The Jordan, that comes
down from Utah Lake, a large body
of pure, fresh water, located TWEEN
ty miles or more southeast from
Salt Lake, is a largo river Of strong
current, constantly emptying into
Salt Lake, and yet the water in the
lake remains so salt that nothing
can live IN it. The only percepti-
BILE change for the last ten years is
an average annual rise of one foot a
year. The water in Salt Lake Is
ten feet higher than 1T Was ten
years ago. This, said Mr.. Jorden, of
Chicago, to me, "a we stood on the
great Mormon tabernacle, looking
over the lake, will in time drown
out the whole city, if it continues.

"BIG MEDICINE desires to call the
attention of our Clown Fathers to the
u~nwholesome condition of The Gala
boose." He says it is poorly ventila.
ted; in fact, that it is unfit, on account
of its closeness, to confne a man in

dollars in obtaining this information /;
and that he is willing for the benefit of
frail humanity, to donate eight dollars
more to the town, provided his obser-
Vations are acted upon.

The Marietta Times says: The Logan

TAKING BACK AN AMEN.-The fol-
lowing story will illustrate the diff
ference which thesource from which
it flows makes with the nearer of
sentiments devotional or other
wise:
In Illinois. Ann Jordan, of the
Protestant Methodist Church, gam
ed quite q reputation as a local
preacher. Ann was always ready,
largely to the annoyance of Peter
Cartwright. She was present at
one of Uartwright's camp>meetIngs,
a good feeling prevailed, and many
were at the altar. Cartwright call
ed on all to kneel, and asked some
One to lead IN prayer. Ann struck
off at once with much feeling and
power. Cartwright, lot recOgnIz.
Ing her voice, shouted out "Amen!'
A brother, kneelIng close by, whis-
pered: 1T is Ann Jordan praying"
Cartwright, looking around and
seeing that it was, cried out, IL sake
that amen hack!'

On Wednesday, we came near
having a very serious accident in
the runaway line. A two-horse
team, driven by A, J. Gray, and
hitcned to an express wagon filled
with ladies, was returning from the
funeral Of Miss Sal!na Riley, and,
when crossing the Public Square,
the horses began to run and kick.
Mrs. Patrick Cain, who vas sitting
beside Gray, became very much
frightened, and attempted To take
the reins. By means of this, the
horses were turned round. and, for
tunateIy, stopped when the wagon
was On the verge of upsettIng. Mrs.
Cam was SO frightened, that her life
was IN jeopardy for some four or five
hours.
