The opposition to Grant seems to be
concentrating upon Horace, Greeley for
president next year.
President Grant and family, accompani-
ed by General Porter, left Washington
June 1st, for Long Branch.

Clagett and Henry L. Warner, of Monta-

Just before his departure the President
made the following appointments: Hon.
George Bancroft, to be Envoy Extraordi-
nary and Minister Plsnipotentiary to the
German Empire. This disposes of the re-
port that Bancroft was about to return to
this country.

Some two years ago, a lad of twelve or
thirteen years old secured an abiding place
in our Infrmary, claiming he was an or
phan boy with nc home, no father or mo-
ther, and that his name was Tom Jones.
Tom was found to be a bright boy, and
the Inirmary Directors determined to find
the lad a good place. This was soon done,
and in a little village Of Stark County, in
a good family, he was in due time located.
The chap was found to be bright and as
attentive to business as boys IN general.
After a fair trial the boy was duly bound,
and matters went right along.
A few days ago the gentleman Of the
house was sent for to the hotel. On ar
irving there he found arespectable looking
mar belonging to Canton, who enquired if
a strange boy was living with him. On
being informed of the fact, the Cantsn man
remarked that Lis son Frank II. went away
two years ago, and he had been searching
for him ever since; that the other day he
got word his lost boy was in the village Of
L. and hence his visit on that occasion.
The man and boy were confronted, and
sure enough, were father and son. The
lad was greatly alarmed and was loath TO
meet his parent, weeping much, but refus-
ing to go home. All this was a great sur
prise to the family with whom the lad had
been living for two long years, passing un-
der an assumed name. After some per
suasion the lad consented TO pay home a
visit for a few days, but after two days
absence he returned to his place of busi-
ness, very well pleased at getting back.
This incident is strictly true. We have
omitted names for the reason that possibly
some of the parties might not wish their
names made public. The lad has often
been in Canton on business, has passed his
father on the street, but was never recog-
niZed.

sc. L. c." the New York correspond
ent of the Toledo Commercial says in a
recent letter:
''The preparations for summer travel
are already beginning. The railway com
panIss are going to offer tremendous in
ducements to exeursionists this year
greater than ever before. The new fast
Time Table goes into effect on all the great
trunk lines on the 18th instant, and it is
calculated to run through from New York
to Chicago even an hour or two quicker
than by the famous lightning time of last
year. Another new feature this season
viii be the throwing open to travel of the
newly completed Niagara Falls Division
of the Erie Railway, which is destined to
open a new phase of excursion travel to
that delightful spot, by enabling passen-
gers to leave New York after breakfast in
the morning. and go through to Niagara
Falls By daylight, reaching there IN time
for supper. This may seem wonderful at
first sight, but remember we are living in
an age of successive wonders. Yet n
cannot avoid a little start of surprise at
the wonderful Improvement In modern
excursion travel, which enables a tourist
to take his seat after breakfast any morn
ing IN one of those recently constructed
Palace Coaches; the Queen City, the Cres-
cent City, the Jay Gould, or the James
Fisk, Jr., leach costing upwards of $685.

and a quiet smoke before bedtime.
"And for the convenience, too, of trav-
elers from the West, passing through Buff
falo from the Lake Shore route, yet desir-
ing to view Niagara Falls en- PEASANT, the
Erie Company have determined to issue,
free of charge, to all such, tickets from
Buffalo to Niagara Falls and return, thus
affording an opportunity to visit without
extra cost this grandest Of natural won
ders.

Next week the paper will enter upon the
3sth year of its existence. The present
numbering was commenced in 1884. Pm
or to that, the paper had an irregular ex-
istence. The first attempt at publishing
a Democratic paper in Stark county was
made in Paris in 1926 by ]. W. White, q
practical printer, who died but a few years
ago. After publishing six months at Par
is he removed his establishment to the
county seat. In a few months after the
paper changed hands and continued for
years in a sickiy condition. After 1882
however the county became generally
Democratic and the county patronage en-
abled the paper to live. A Mr.. Bernard
was the proprietor one of those early years.
but being suddenly carried off by cholera,
VIM. Dunbar, Esq, now of Mt. Vernon,
became editor. William and George Dun
bar finally became proprietors and about
1885 sold to Daniel Gotshall, who trans
ferred to E, L. Carney & B. F. Letter in
1917. These were succeeded by John &
A. McGregor, father and SON in l84S,
John McGrsgor dying a few months after.
the establishment came into the hands OF

the service and somewhat older.
