EdncntIon IL the Rnnt

DR.. PAYNE, President of the O. w. Uni
versity, was present at the NJ. E. Confer
ence held in Defiance, and delivered an
address in which he made an eloquent ap-
peal in behalf of education. Only a syn
opsis was published in the Blade, from
which we extract this tribute 10 CoRIIss
and his wonderful engine:
Among all the agencies for good, man ia
the principal one. Some one has put il
in this way, in speaking of these agencies,
hOuse-book-man. These three are great,
the greatest IL man. So vast are the pos
sibilities of man that II he is thoroughly
educated he will be in himself everything
that is good, and have in himself all be-
neyolent societies, missionary, church ex-
tension, and all others. The object of ed
ucation is to make man all God intended
him TO be. The speaker had been struck
forcibly with the greatness of the mind
by witnessing the majestic but almost
noiseless movements of the Corliss engine
at the Centennial, driving eight hundred
miles of shafting and thirteen acres OF
machinery.
THIS WAS DEVELOPED THOUGHT;
mentality putting on physical forms and
evidences the minds almost illimitablt
power. If those thirteen acres of machin.
cry and eight hundred miles of shafting
can be driven by thought, how much o.
moral agency and human feeling can bc
brought into subjection by thought educa
ted in institntinns under the influence o.
our holy christianity?
That engine stands on the Centennia
grounds az monument of Christian
thought. Corliss is Christian. Whel
the question of opening the exhibition OF
the Sabbath was being discussed and tn,
most of the Philadelphia papers were il
favor of it, and the principal exhibition
were being called upon for their opinion
MIR. Coriss said to the Commissioners
MY engine shall not break Gods Sab
BATH That engine couldn't 60 becaus
christian thought had it in charge.

Shot I'm Leg.--GEo. BRAssIE, son of
CONRAD BRAssIE, near Bates Station, and
a boy named DEGNER, were out hunting
on Sabbath last. DEGNER was car ying
the qua and BRAssIE was short distance
in front of him. BY some means unknown to
our reporter the gun was discharged and be-
tween 40 and so fine bird shot were lodg-
ed in the calf of BRAssIE's leg. DIR. PRIEST
of Toledo and DR.. HUME of this place
we're called. On examination they decid-
ed not to remove the shot, as the probing
would be far more detrimental to the limb
than the shot.
Accidents from the careless handling Of
firearms are becoming quite numerous.

Just From the Corners" Deacon
Tom," was in town yesterday looking up
his chances for County Commissioner, The
Deacon has reformed the Prohibition party,
done something in this respect for the Re

against the Deacon few years ago when
he was fairly on the track for Sheriff. But
the DeacOn's returns TO the Assessor are
open for investigation in this campaign.
We will import in few days one of the
astute reporters for the Toledo Democrat to

Want Of fCOnfidence.-All that is lack
ing to make times as flush az in former
years, is confidence. Let every man have
the confidence in himself that he ean and
TN pay his debts, then il can and will be
done. Just so long as every one takes Sd-
vantage OF the cry of "hard times" to
shield him from the liquidation of debts
that should be paid on sight, and sets
down and sucks his fingers and waits for
money to come to him without first earn
ing it, justiso long will there be an excuse
for hard times.
