The Newark Furnace is to be moved
to Shawnee. This is the beginning of
the end. II will not pay to transport
coal and iron ores, and, consequently,
the furnaces must be erected where the
coal and ores abound. After paying
freight on coal and ore for year or two,
the Newark company is tired of it, and
wisely proposes to save this expenditure
in the future. So they move their fur
nance to Perry county.-[New Lexing-

A partial change in the ownership OF
the Somerset steam mill occurred this
week. Mr.. John NJ. Ashbrook sold his
half interest in the same to Mr.. Samuel
Ream, of this place. Under the man
agement of the Ashbrooks this mill has
become not only very important busi-
ness interest to this section of the coun-
ty, but it has attained degree of popu-
larity hitherto unequaled, besides prov
ing itself profitable investment to its
enterprising owners. Mr.. Ream, the
new member of the firm, has reputa-
tion for push, and business qualifications
generally; and, associated with a man
like Capt. A. P. Ashbrook, who is we'll
known for his energy and successful bus
mess operations, it is reasonable to sup
pose that be will do his part toward
maintaining, at least, the high reputa-
tion which the mill already enjoys.

Why Franklin Used Sim.
Dle Language.

Tradition has it that years
ago when Benjamin Franklin
was q lad he began to study
philosophy, and soon became
fond Of applying technical
names to common objects. One
evening, when he mentioned TO
his father that 4le had swallowed
some, ,acephaous muliuslls, the
old man Was very much alarmed
and seizins him, he called loud
ly f9E help. Mrs. Franklin
came in with warm water, and
the hired man rushed in with
the garden phmp. They forced
half a gallon down Benjamin'S
throat, then held him by the
heels over the porch and shook
him, willie thc old man said,
"If We don't get them things
out of Benney he will be pi-
zened sure" When they were
out, and Benjamin explained
that the +. articles alluded to
were oysters, his father fond
led himforan hour with a trunk
strap for soaring the family
Tradition adds that ever after
wards Franklin's language was
marvellously simple and explicit.
