Local HlstOry.-We have made ar
rangements with Mr.. G. s. SINK, Esq., of
Bryan, Ohio, to furnish us with items that
relate to the principal commercial indus
tries OF our town. These articles will ap-
pear as local matter, in the form Of edito-
rials, and in a condensed style.
We hope our business men will not only
give Mr.. s. their kind attention, but fur
nish him with such items of interest as
will enable him in his task to place before
the reading public each enterprise in
profitable and interesting light. The OBJ
iect is to show the magnitude Of our busi-
ness facilities, and to place those before our
readers who have moved to the front rank
of their respective callings. Mr.. 8. is Pc
culiarly adapted to this work and comes
among us with good reco mmendation.
Sold his Farm.-Last fall Major II. L.
WooD negotiated the sale Of his large and
well-improved farm, 100 acres, to an old
German Sea Captain, for $40, $50. The pay
ments being properly made the sale was
confirmed this spring and possession given
April 10th. In 1888 Major WooD pur-
chased this same tract Of land for S. per
acre, total of 5000. This might be re-
garded a handsome rise in value. Mr..
WooD has permission to remain in one OF
the houses on the farm until July 9th, af-
ter which he expects to be ." on the wing"
for some months, visiting the Centennial,
looking up a new location, &c. He has
rendered his resignation as Superintendent
of the Western Reserve & Maumee Road,
TO take effect on that date, and il accepted
there will be a vacancy 10 be filed, over
which there will he no little strife, proba-
bly,, on account of the local jealousies ex-
isting along the line of the road.

This COMPANY is really a fne one, compose
Of genuine ladies and geutlemsn, and their per
tUrmance ID one Of the most enjoyable kline
chaste and unObjecliouabls throughout. Th
gentlemen are nearly all yousg men, fine look
lag, temperate and genteel, something too rare
iy found in travelling troupes now a-days. w
can speak especially of Mr. C. NJ. Robinson, tn
proprietor, Jimmie Field, the star performer

double the price of admission, any time, for
dyspeptic, person with the blues, or any or
