A Sad Calamity at PembervIlle.


ED. JoURNAL:-A sad calamity hap
pensd here on Tuesday last, which result
ed in the death of a young man Of this
community by the name of Baaor. The
facts are those, as far as your correspop-
dent could collect them:
The deceased, among number Of 9th
ers, was engaged by Froney & Schroeder in
drawing pork to Elmore, ON that day.
They all got thoroughly wet while going
in the morning through the rain. For all
this they stood it very we'll, but the change
in the atmosphere in the after part of the
day seemed to strike with q terrible force,
causing chill to creep over those who
were so unfortunate az to be out. Young
Ba'or was observed To lie down in the wag-
on box and WRAP up in the blanket, letting
his team go where it would. At length,
the others becoming alarmed at his unusu-
al long silence, thought best to investigate,
when he was found in an unconscious state
and unable to move either hand or foos.
Upon consultation it was decided to reach
here il possibe and procure medical aid.
The whip was applied to the horses and
town soon reached, but too late to render
medical assistance Of any avail. He died
within few minutes after arrival. TWAS
sad stroke upon his parents, and especial
" his father who, it should he remember
el, is Just recovering from an accident
which fractured his arm. The funeral
took place on Thursday and was largely
attended.
Quite a change in our business interest
occurred on the LIST inst. Messrs. Fronev
& Schroeder dissolving-Froney retiring,
and Schroeder continuing the same ut the
old stand. They are still associated in the
pork trade for this season.
There seems to be good prospects for
many buildings to be erected here this
coming summer. The Sash Factory ia
about ready for work. Our r. II. seems
moving on with slow but firm step. The
rise in th&river has suspended operations
on the bridge for the present.
The saloon formerly owned by :. Penn
Der Il King changed hands few daya ago,
parties from Bowling Green purchasing
the same. 1t is pity it had not been pur-
chased by some one who would have sent

PEMDERvILLE, Feb. 3, 1876.
We are not poorer, but richer, because
We have, through many ages, rested one
day in seven. That day 10 not Lost.
While industry Is suspended. while the
pluw lies In the iuFF0w, while the eIr

The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-07-13
Hayes's Abasement.

The Republican candidate for the
Presidency is afflicted with sense OF
humility. He feels sure that he is In
competent to perform the great duties
devolving upon the President of the
United States, and in this view he has
the concurrence of a majority of the
American people. On the other hand,
Mr.. Tilden is valiant and selfreliant.
The American people are fond of men
who believe in themselves. There is a
general impression abroad that unless a
man has some confidence in himself
other people ought not to have conf
dence in him. Put the frank confession
of Hayes of his unftness for the Presi-
dency beside this proud declaration OF
Mr.. Tilden:
This nomination was not made by the
leaders of the party; it was the people who
made it. They want reform; they have
wanted it for long while, and in looking
about they have become convinced that it is
to be found here (pointing to himself). They
want 1t. That is what they are after. They
are sick of corruption and maladministion
of their affairs. They want a change, and
one for the better; thorough reformation.
There is no unseemly humility and
self-abasement there. Hayes is too timid
and too modest to be President. The
people demand a man of nerve. When
Hayes says he isn't equal to the emer-
gency, he ought to be taken at his word.
When Mr.. Tilden points to himself in
the manner indicated above, we see a
man of whom there is hope.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-07-13
a Msstaxe az Round.

An amusing story is told of James
town lady who was jealous of her hus-
band, and suspected him of kissing the
cook. She kept quiet, however, and
bided her time, intending to catch him
in the act. One evening she heard him
come in quietly and seek the kitchen,
whereupon she prepared for action. As
that happened to be Katy's (the cook's)
" might out" the kitchen was dark /; so
the wife, taking some matches, threw a
shawl over her head, after Katy's fashion,
and entering the kitchen by the back
door, was almost Immediately seized and
embraced in the most ardent manner.
Almost bursting with rage and jealousy,
and intending to wreak summary ven
geance upon her faithless lord, she struck
a match and stood facing the hired man.
Tableauxl 1t is difficult to tell on which
face was pictured the greatest astonish-
ment. The husband says he don't know
how it is, but his wife never treated him
so well since the first month they were
married as she has for the past few days.

and persistent calls were made for Gov.
Hendricks, who appeared ou the balcony
and was received with the most vocifer-
Gus and protracted cheering. Quiet be-
ing restored, he said:

for me to make an address to you this even
ing. [Cries of I" Go on."] / am here to pay
my respects to the distinguished citizens
from other States, who are on their way
home from one of the greatest political
conventions that has ever held session in
this country. These distinguished men SYM

intend to protect by the change which is to
take place at the coming election. [Cheers.l
/ believe at the next election that the people
are going to express what is written in the
platform adopted at st. Louis, and what is
written in the history of the distinguished
man that heads the ticket, and that is
thorough reform in the public service.
CGreat applause.] There is but one other
thought that will express to you, that the
platform adopted at st. Louis declares that
the resumption clause of the act adopted in
1875, shall be repealed and the repeal of that
clause carries with it every feature of the
law which is bringing about the contrac-
tion SO hurtful to the interests of the coun-
try. thank you for the compliment which
you have paid me in this call. [Cries of

men who have addressed you. Again gen.
tlemen, thank you.

Execution. at saio,.fca.

A correspondent of the London Times
gives an interesting account of the exc
cution of some of the men who took part
in the assassination of the French and
German Consuls at Salonica. The
Turkish authorities can not be said to
be dilatory in giving satisfaction to the
aggrieyed- foreigners ON this occasion.
The Sultan ordered the offenders to be
punished within eight days, and on the
second day the troops were observed to
be assembling in a large, clear space on
the quay, close to the waters edge, and
nearly opposite the main street of the
town, which terminates at the landing
place, and in little while individuals
were seen to be putting up eight
erections, which soon assumed the form
of gibbets. After the arrangements
were complete, a boat from the Turkish
man-of-war came on shore. bearing pris-
oners who had been condemned by the
court few hours before. These unfor-
tunate wretches were allowed to say
short prayer each, after being marched
to their respective gibbets, in full view
of the ships officers. When that prayer
was over each had to stand on chair
which was borrowed from an adjacent
cafe for the occasion, and as soon as the
rope was adjusted the chair was kicked
away from under them, letting them
drop only that height. As they can not
get any Turks to take the part of execu-
tioners, they have to catch gypsies and
Albanians from the neighborhood two or
three days beforehand and make them do
it, with the option of losing their own
lives in case of refusal. The Mohamme-
dan priest who was present told each
prisoner he was dying martyr to his
religion, and one of them, a negro, would
not allow himself to be polluted by the
touch of an Albanian, but got on the
chair, adjusted the rope, and kicked the
chair away himself.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-07-13
The Republican Party.

The day before the Cincinnati nomi-
nation, the New York Tribune said:
The party has gone the way of all
parties which, having accomplished their
original policy, live upon the glory of it
while they have not yet found another.
It has fallen into the hands of adyen-
turers and money -getters; it has grown
careless and corrupt; it has become an
organization of place-holders and place
hunters, with few millions of honest
private citizens following blindly in the
rear, some because they honor its past
and cling to its associations, Others be-
cause they hope to regenerate and direct
it toward nobler aims.
This is the truth of history. Nothing
has occurred to change this verdict. The
Republican party remains in the same
hands, and will remain there in the event
of the election of Hayes and Wheeler.
The question before the country is,
whether it is good policy to leave the
government in the hands here described.
No one pretends that there is the
slightest prospect of radical change. To
support the Cincinnati nominations,
therefore, is to oppose the application OF
any effective remedy to existing evils.
The Eaton Democrat. (Eaton, Ohio) 1875-1903, 1876-07-13
Republican Policy.

With all the glaring corruption of the
Administration and the Administrators
office-holders staring them in the face, it
is no wonder that such journals as the
New York Times and Chicago Tribune
should gloat over the adoption of the six
teenth plank in the Republican platform,
where all Democrats are arraigned as
traitors aud sympathizers with treason,
Representatives is charged with cover
shadowing the ends of justice by par
tisan mismanagementa and obstruction of
investigation" There is only one party
in Congress and in the country which
has obstructed investigation" and that
is assuredly the party which most needs
and which has been most damaged by
it. Because the Democratic House of
Representatives has unearthed the ras-
cality, the imbecility and the jobbery of
the Belknaps, Robesons, Shepherds, Bah
cocks, and others of that ilk, the Repub-
ican platform arraigns the Democratic
party for being utterly incompetent 10
administer the Government" The six
teenth plank of the platform is huge
joke; but it is about the only plank the
opposition can cling to or fight upon.
The Republicans will be kept very
busy during the campaign defending the
conduct of the men whom they wish
third time to place in power. In order
to divert the attention of the people
from the real issue, they will assail the
Democratic party-as the party has been
assailed in their buncombe Platforms
sympathizers with treasorand secession
will try toseduce the negroes with the idea
that they will again be enslaved, and
the people of the North with the ridicu-
lous notion that the Confederate debt
will be paid, in the event of the success
of that party which, in the Lower House
of Congress, has been unearthing the
corruption and rascality of Radicals
during the past ten years. Every Op-
portunity was offered the Republicans in
Congress to investigate previous to the
election of majority Of Democrats in
the House of Representatives, but they
would net, dare not, make an exposition
of the duplicity and rascality OF the
Administration and the Administrations
friends. In the language of promi-
nent Republican in Congress, "These in
vestigations will be damn the party"
The people are pretty much inclined to
think that a party composed of such
material should be damned, nevermore
10 be resurrected. No wonder the Re-
publicans in their platform warn the
country against trusting" the Democ-
racy. When the day of judgment comes
there will be woe in the camps of the
opposition.

Not Pleasant Feature of the Gem
fenniaL.
[san Francisco Chronicle. ]

lcan n trauclsco Chronlcle.I
In the main corridor of the Memorial
Buildings annex, where the most casual
visitors are not likely to miss it, wax
figure of Cleopatra is displayed. She
reclines upon a sort of throne, and is
almost naked. The workmanship is of
the best and the effect startling. The
flesh tint is natural, the hair life-like,
and every detail carefully done. Interior
clock-work heayes her bare bosom,
moves her arms at intervals, stirs her
legs, turns her head languidly from side
to side, and rolls her eyes. Her face
and form are beautiful, and the acces-
sories are in artistic harmony with
a conception of the Egyptian Queen;
yet her features are not Egyptian, being
rather those ofa beautiful French woman.
An Ethiopian slave, equally nude,
stands at her side and fans her. At her
side liesa naked little boy. A bird futters
on the arm of her seat. A golden can
opy hangs above the group, all being in
closed ina glass case. The whole is sur
prisingly natural in effect upon the spec
tators. Young girls come suddenly upon
it and draw back appalled,. They have
nerved themselves to look at the statuary
and pictures, but this sight is too unex-
pected and realistic to be borne with
steadiness. They escape without delay.
Women inspect the group shyly. Men
are not to be scared away by any feel
ing of modesty, and, unless escorting
sisters or sweethearts, stay on the spot
in numbers sufficient to constantly crowd
that part of the corridor. l am aware
that such wax-works, and worse, are COM
mon in European museums; that artis-
tically they are to be commended as
triumphs of skill, being totally unlike
the efigies usually shown in this country;
but / don't think that they ought to be
thrust unwarningly upon the sight of
mixed congregations. Some of the Com
missioners are of my way of thinking,
and Cleopatra's stay on the grounds may
be of short duration. President Hawley
is from Connecticut, and is Puritanical.
He stops in front of Cleopatra while l
stand there.
"What do you think of her?n I ask.
GA thing of beauty" he answers, but
not joy forever. guess we will have
to get her out of sight. must talk with
Sartain about her."
