Race Of Hose Companies.

A trial of speed was made between the
Mazeppa Hose Co., Of Bueyrus, and
Hose Co. No. 3, of Wooster, at Crestline,
on last Friday. The time made was
good, the hest ever made in the State.
The Wooster boys made the best, time
running, but owing to their having some
old hose instead of their new, as they
should have had, they lost the prize,
by their hose coming apart just as they
called time. The Bucyrus boys took the
money.
The trial was to run 40 rods, connec-
ting with engine, laying 200 feet of hose
and putting on the pipe. The following
was the result: t,t
For Purse of $500
Mazeppa Hose. of Bucyrus, 54x seconds
No. Hose. of Wooster, IS seconds.
For Sweepstake Purse Of $50.

A Poem.

Unjust about the smartest town
That ever you did enter
sTmean the town OF Millersburg,
And very near the center,
Sam Marx has just now opened out
4 fine new Clothing Store,
The cheapest one that ever was
In Millersburg before.
His goods are of the latest styles,
And we know he has heap,
And the way he's selling on SO fast
We know he sells them cheap.
His goods are new, his store is full
OF everything in his line.
Now Gents, stop in and give him call
For he's a gentleman line.
sam has Overcoats to keep you warm,
Umbrellas to keep you dry,
ind he will sell them very cheap,
And "how is that for high"
He has Hats and Caps Of any style,
And Satchels by the score;
Suspenders that will stretch rod
And just trifie more.
He has Linen shirts and WOOlen shirts,
and lots of Underware,
A nd he well sell them just as cheap
As you can buy them anywhere.
He has Woolen Hose and Cotton Hose,
And Clothes to suit you all;
Then come along and buy from Sam.
Yes come, both great and small.
Then step right In and see his goods,
And buy yourself a suit,
For Sam will treat You well, y0a know,

The EsfeY Organ,

We would call special attention to the
advertisement of this instrument in an
other column. It's undoubtedly the best
organ before the people. 1t excels in
richness of tone. The Vox Jubilante
cannot be surpassed. Its durability is
also one of its chief attractions. There
is no getting out of order. 1t is very
highly recommended by all good musi-
clans. 1t took the First Premium ai
our late County Fair, and has also taken
the primium in Knox, Richland, Wayne
and several other neighboring counties
We invite all who would like to see and
hear these organs to call on us at oul
Office

The Knabe Piano.

The Knabe Piano is one that gives
complete satisfaction wherever tried.
1t is becoming quite popular both tor
richness of tone and durability. The
"Knabe" has been manufactured for
nearly fifty years and has stood the
most severe tests in every particular,
and to-day is the leading Piano i'm the
country. Mr. W. S. McMillen, of Mans
field, who we know is reliable, is agent
for this make, and will sell at the very
lowest rates. Every piano is fully war
ranted. Special orders for music win
be filled on short notice. Piano stools
and covers furnished to order.

Our people in this county, who are gem
orally lovers of plants. and flowers,
might take lesson from them. 1t was
an object of great interest to US to study
the faces and manners Of the people. II
any one of our readers imagines to him
self that they are all "ninnies' out west,
rough, coarse and uncultured, he is very
much mistaken indeed. We have never
in the eastern States, seen a more intel
ligent and finer looking people than We
saw in Omaha and in attendance at that
Fair. Omaha is famous tor her beauti-
full and intelligent women-women in
the true sense of the word. But We
have not time to tell of all we saw there.
The Governor of the State was in at
tendance; had talk with the present
member of Congress-the only one from
the State. Highly pleased with what
we had seen we jumped into carriage
and were soon in our room at the Wy
oming, ready for hearty supper. Prop
erty in Omaha is not nearly so high now
as it was few years since. Rents have
fallen more than half. Houses that
could not have been had few years ago
for less than $25 a month, can now be
rented for $40. We are greatly indebted
to DIR. Anderson for Kindness shown,
and information given. The Doctor is
getting into fair practice, which we
are glad to know.
But as this was not intended as the
end CT our trip westward, we prepared
to leave Omaha for Lincoln, the new
capital of the State Of Nebraska. We
accordingly left at eight O'Clock
Thursday morning on the Omaha and
Southwestern and Burlington and Mis-
souri, roads. The Southwestern road
runs down the Missouri river for some
fdistance througha wild and rugged part
of the country. The. hills on our right
rose almost as high and as rugged as
any of our Holmes county hills. On
