The Perrysburg (Ohio) Journal says: ::
The citizens Of Bowling Green have had
a disgracaiul case on the tapis for two
weeks past, in which the Rev. w. Nc
Elwee proves to be the ruin Of an inter
esting young lady, a member Of his
church. This case is the more fragrant
from the disparity of age between him
and his victim. McElwee is s man OF
forty-fve years Of age, and has a wife
and three children living in Bowling
Green. His victim is bright young
girl OF seventeen. When the conse.
Quence OF his crime became manifest he
is stated to have given the girl recipe
for medicine. Failing to accomplish
that purpose, he caused her to remove
to the West, aud by assuming the posi-.
tion and circumstances OF widow Of .
railroad employee, who had been kill.
ed two or three weeks previous, thus
diverting public attention from himself.
The location OF the girl was discover
ed, and her aunt proceeded to the place,
where she found her niece, who with
agonizing sorrow, confessed all. When
Mr.. McElwee was charged with the
crime, he Indignantly denied it. and as.
sumed the position Of a slandered man,
but eventually admitted his guilt, and
was ordered TO instantly leave town.
He, of course, gladly accepted the con.
dition, and left for parts unknown.

Burglar sho, in Preston County.

We are informed that on the night Of
the 18th inst. an attempt was made 10y
four burglars 10 enter the store of John
Z. Forman, in Brucetown, this county.
The facts as We have gathered them are
On the night above mentioned j..
Rufus Hill, who ia clerking for j. f
Forman, and who sleeps in the store,
heard noise at one Of the doors OF the
store. BY close attention he found that
some one was boring at the door and he
at once supposed it to be robber. To
make sure, however, he said to them
gentlemen, if you are not in too great
hurry, | will let you in One Of the
robbers then made some remark to Mr..
Hill, supposing that they would at once
be admitted. But Mr. Hill had no idea
of letting them in lie quietly took his
revolver, raised window, and fred at
them rs they were standing at the door.
The first time he failed to hit either OF
them, and one Of the robbers reached
for his revolver to shoot Hill. Hill,
however saw the movements, and fired
again, this time hitting one OF them who
tell to the pavement, and cried ont that
he was shot. His accomplices at once
grabbed him and carried him away.
Fortunately for the robbers, Mr.. Hill
had but two loads in his revolver, or
perhaps their number would have been
decreased. An investigation showed
that the robbers had bored two holes
through the door and had commenced
the third, when Mr.. Hill 80 bravely in
tcrrupted them. The pavement was
sprinkled with blood, and by following
up the trace OF the robbers, in the morn
ing, the place was found where they
had dressed the wound Of their &C
complice. A search was made for the
burglars, but up to our present writing
they have eluded the vigilance Of the
law.-Prcston Herald. SATURDAY.

for some purpose, and was in the act oil
returning to complete bis examination
Of the papers, when kerosene lamp on
a stand in the room exploded and
caused the total destruction OF the build
ing. His loss, we learn, is estimated al

On Yesterday morning, at about half

resounded through our streets and In
as short q time as it takes to read this
hundreds of men and women were hur-

school building, the men with buckets

women, especially mothers, eager for
the safety of their children. Upon
our arrival at the scene Of the fire, the
roof was all in blaze, and on account
of the great scarcity of water all efforts
towards saving any part OF the building
had ceased.
