& MEXICO continues in a state of revolu-
ton. Several Of the States have PRO
nounced" against Juarsz, and their troops
have gained some victories but as there
seems TO be no very great unanimity of
purpose among the various revolving bod
les. 1t is little uncertain whether the
movements amount to one or to three or
four revolutions Each leader seems to
be pulling his own way, and when we add
to the uncertainty thus produced. the ut
ter untrustworthines of the several chan
nels through which our news comes from
that country. it becomes very difficult to
form any just opinion on affairs there
One point only seems certain, and that is,
that the numberless generals in revolt
are little better than highwaymen, while
it is by no means an ascertained fact that
those sustainingthe Government are very
much better.

MARION COUNTY.

ARREsrED.-Two suspicious looking in
divIduals appeared in town a few days
ago. Their conduct was such as to arrest
attention as to the real character of their
intentions. Soon it was discovered that

business. Lsst-Monday night thsy plaE
ned to enter Cassen's and Cull's saloons on
Center street Through the vigilance of
Al. Prosser, night watch for the town, the
scamps were foiled in their attempt.
Prosser discovered them upon the roof of
one of the buildings in the act of making
passage to the interior. Finding they
were detected the scoundrels attempted to
make good their escape but Prosser fol-
lowed them closely, fred upon and COM
pelled them to surrender They were
lodged in Jail for the night, and on Tues
day morning were taken before his honor,
Mayor Mcneil, and, after examination,
were sentenced each to pay fine of $50
and costs. In default Of payment they
were committed to the county Jail where
they are sentenced 10 remain until the
fines and costs are paid. They answer to-
the names of C. P. LIE Grand and r.

THE full returns Of the Ohio election
show that the Radicals after the mos
frantic efforts succeeded in carrying the
State only by majority Of 1903. 1t is
q difficult task for them to transform this
into great Radical victory. 1t is not

Republican gains" in this vote of q little

IT is said that if puff of air were to
be blowed into vein of an animal, death
would instantaneously follow, because,
circulation would be stopped. The blood
makes the entire circuit of the human
body every seven minutes, and whenever
this circulation is impeded or any of its
channels are clegged by impurities which
ought to be carried off, disease follows
fever or a disorder of liver or kidneys, or
scrofHla, or dyspepsia. To get at and re-
move the source of the difficulty, use the

pictorial Family RegIster.'' p

The Pictorial Family Register is neat
ly, nay, elegantly got up volume fer full
and complete record of the family. Miss
Mamie Miller, daughter of Mr.. Eli Mil
Ter, of the Canton House, is agent for our
city and will call upon many of our ciu-
zens to show them this valuable voAnme
for the Family Those having desire to
look at the Register will do well to call at
the Canton House and examine the work.
A few minutes examination will convince
any person of its great utility. In fact it
fills want in the American family anc
every family should have one. By this
means a record of the family may be
kept. Records of families have been
greatly neglected in this country. 1t is
time the fault was being remedIed and the
Pictorial Family Register is a great step
in that direction. We say to our friends,
examine the Pictorial Family Register
when Miss Mamie. callseand do not fail tc
subscribe. Older civilized nations have
taken care for centuries to register births
by legal enactment In this land such is
not the case and hence perhaps the lack o.
ancestral knowledge among us. 1t IS time
steps were being taken IN each family tc
keep a full and complete genealogy oi
their own tree The Register may prove
very useful IN this regard.
