A Strange Incident.

A strange instance of mans shoulder
coming ont of place apparently of its
own accord, occurred the other day in
our town. Mr.. Willis Hoagland was
standing on the sidewalk talking to
some other gentlemen, when he sudden
ly caught one of his arms with his hand
saying that it was cramped. He told
one of the men standing near to take
hold of it, which he did when Mr.. Hoag-
land said that would do, that his shoul-
der was out of place. DIR. Wise who
was just passing verified the statement.
Accompanied by two or three he went
to DR.. Pomerene's office which was near
at hand and had it set.

Fatal Accident.

Mrs. Jessie Henry, of this place, died
on the evening of July 9th, from the
effects of an explosion of Carbon Oil.
The unfortunate woman was pouring
the fluid upon some burning fuel, to
hasten her morning fire. A combustion
ensued, and the deadly element was
conducted into the can that contained
the oil, an explosion followed, and the
victim was instantly enveloped in flames.
Every balm was administered to palli-
ate her suffering. A faithful husband
was terribly burned in his effort to ex-
tinguish the flames, while kind friends,
and neighbors, were ever ready to sym
pathize, and to lend helping hand, but
all was Intellectual until death relieved
her in about eighteen hours from the
torment of such a calamity. Death is a
terror to us all, his cold fingers have
been stained with blood from the be-
ginning of time until now. But it is
possible, that human nature can realize
no greater agony than that experienced
in death like this.-Shield G Banner.

Don't Grumble.

Many business men grumble at the
dullness of the times, but such individ-
uals should remember that the dull sea-
son for merchants is the busy season for
farmers and laboring men. The pres
ent depression is merely temporary, and
indicates that those who buy are en-
gagged in securing the means with which
to purchase. In an agricultural coun-
try like ours, and where towns like ours
are dependent for their trade, life and
business, in a great measure, on prop
er and successful development of agri-
cultural resources, the true basis of all
safe traffic is agriculture. In the out
look Of crops there is certainly every
thing to cheer, and but little to dis
courage. All that is necessary in order
that every branch of trade may prosper,
is for business men to go slow and sure.
and advertise.

Sun-printing on Fruit.

Boys and girls, if You wish to aston
ish any members of the family or any
coming guests by some day allowing
them to discover their initials neatly
printed on peach, pear, or apple as it
hangs upon its branch, this is the way
to carry out your plan. Just before the
fruit ripens cut the desired letters from
a sheet of thin, tough paper, and paste
them on the side Of the fruit most ex-
posed to the sun. When in course of
time, you remove the paper from the
ripe surface, you will find the letters
distinctly marked upon it. There are
other ways for printing fruit, but this is
the most simple.

Sudden Death.

Miss Susan Cellars daughter of Mr.
Joseph Cellars who lives few miles
west of town, died very suddenly on
Monday, from the effects. Of hem
orrhage or breaking of blood vessel
She has had consumption for some time
but was able to go to church the day
before, and on Monday had gone out a
short distance from the house to pick
blackberries when she was seized with a
fit of coughing which doubtless ruptured
a vessel and caused her death. She was
buried on Tuesday.

For the REPUBLICAN.
COMMUNICATION.
ORRvILLE, o., July p,

ORRvILLE, o., July p, 1871.
EDS. REPUBLICAN: The coming of
Grady's Circus made a slight breeze on
the monotonous current prevalent at
this village last week. The show made
a poor display, and, as consequence,
had a poor run of patronage. 1t is their
custom to have hot air balloon ascen-
sion at each place where they exhibit,
and so advertised here, but the rainy
weather during the forepart of the day
seemed to indicate slim turn out of the
people. The managers decided not to
have the balloon ascension at this place,
but kept up a sort of pretense as though
they desired to fill the bill but could not
get ready. A large crowd gathered in
in the evening, and the canvas would
have been filled, but the fragrant manner
in which the balloon ascension was
avoided created great dissatisfaction
amongst the people and hundreds turned
away after coming for the purpose of
patronizing the institution. In this way
the managers wrought their own injury
as their receipts were $3.50 less than the
expenses. From here they went to
Massillon where they exhibited on Sat-
urday-At six o'clock p. NJ. the balloon
carried up the trapeze performer, Prof.
Torres, and came down nearly mile
from the starting point, dropping the
Professor into basin of the canal,
where the water is ten or fifteen feet
deep. Mr.. Torres was unable to swim,
but came up to the surface. three times
and called for help. There was an old
man fishing in the basin at the time, but
he seemed to have been so amazed at the
sight of man falling in
the water so mysteriously that he made
no effort to rescue the drowning aronaut,
he might have reached him
with his fishing pole. Other assistance
soon arrived, but ten minutes elapsed
before the drowned man was fished
out. Mr.. Torres was Spaniard, and
had brother with the show. The re-
mains were inferred in the Catholic
at Massillon on Sunday after
noon, attended by one Of the largest pro-
cession ever seen in the place.

For the REPUBLIcAS.
A REVERE.
BY wn. wEsrLEY PEssELL.

The rosy day has passed away,
Like bubbles in the air.
And night succeeds the summer day,
a rest from sin and care;
The signing OF the wind hear,
Around me and above,
That whispers Of the dead so dear,
That / SO fondly love.
They long have passed from earth away,
Into that higher home,
Where joy is one eternal day,
Above this arched dome;
Forever gone? 1t can't be 50.
Ay, sure, they've gone before,
But welcomes glad, so sweetly glow
For us upon that shore.
And there we'll meet the loved again;
And there we'll five for aye;
Forever free from sorrow, pain,--
No night to fade the day;
And there eternity's forrest;
With robes of white around,
On harps OF gold, the angels blest
Gods praise forever sound.

Corn CrOp.

Concerning corn, the reports are most
favorable from all quarters; and this
crop, if it natures safely and the stalks
are properly saved, will go far to supply
the lack of othey forage. With the aid
of corn-cutting machines, the stalks can
be cut before the frost destroys the foli-
age; and then with the corn huskers
invented it can be speedily divested of
the ears, and every particle of this nu-
tritious crop preserved for stock.

To Expel Mosquitoes.

1t is said that room may be rid of
mosquitoes by taking piece of gum
camphor about one-third the size of a
hens egg, and evaporate it by placing it
in tin vessel, holding it over lamp or
candle, taking care. that it does not ig-
mite. The smoke will soon fill the room
and expel the mosquitoes.

Cheeky.

On last Monday morning journey
man shoemaker visited one of our sa-
looms and called for a-glass of whisky.
His request was complied with, and the
whisky ran down his gullet, kissing as
it went. After he coughed couple OF
times and wiped away three or four
salt drops that were forced from his
eyes by the fiery liquid, he told the sa-
loon keeper to fork over what money
he had in the drawer or he would re-
port him to the Mayor tor selling him
the liquor. The fear of the law made
the yender tremble, and his minds eye
saw big fine and long bill of costs
loom up, so he passed the shoemaker
the desired change, and the 'jour," left
for parts unknown.-Tas. Chronicle.

Social Gatherings.

An exchange very truthfully says
Social gatherings are good thing, but
as long as the hostess makes them an
occasion to display her culinary vanity,
they are emphatically nuisance. The
injury done to health counterbalances
the social improvement, and were those
Immediately engaged in it the only suf-
ferers, it were not so bad, but innocent
offspring must suffer for it. Let the
blind say what they please, the animal
element yet predominates in society.

The Very Best.

The question is often asked why the
Howe Sewing MACHINE is the best. The
answer is, simply because it does every
thing in the sewing line with such per-
feet satisfaction. Every one who has
used Howe Machine pronounces it the
most complete. Its work speaks for it
self. No other machine has such unan-
imous testimony in its behalf. Every
body praises it, and no family should be
without it. If you wish No. ma
chine then, in every respect, buy a
"Howe'' of Menuez & Rood, agents for
Wayne, Holmes, Stark and Summit
counties; or of Mrs. Robert Cameron,
agent at Millersburg. For particulars,
enquire at L. Mayors store. 37tf.
