HORSE THIEVES.

Mr.. VIM. Huston, living up the river
q mile or SO, had two horses stolen on
Monday night, September 10th, described
as follows: One black horse, 6 years
old star in forehead and snip on the
nose long back; short heavy name and
thick heavy tail small feet One white
gray horse, 6 years old light name and
tail. Persons would suppose he had
hooks in his eyes. Pretty large feet.
And on Sunday night, ct Carlyle, Mr..
Archie Adams had two saddles, two
brides, collars and some harness stolen.
They were tracked down as far as this
place where all trace was lost.
While on Moniay night, A. J. Nc
Carley, east of town, had two saddles
stolen.
1t seems to be the geneIal opinion
that the thieves stole the saddles, ETC.,
lirst and then laid low until they could
obtain horses. Probably more losses
will be ascertsined q soon as owners
begin hunting up their horses on the
prairies.

The Wilson County Citizen comes to
hand this week enlarged to an eight col.
umn paper, printed on new type and
otherwise improved. John Gilmore has
been and is yet giving to the citizens of
Fredonia as good paper as there = to
be found in the State; much better than
the average. He furnishes better paper
than the support he gets justifies and we
believe always has done so. The people
of Fredonia and Wilson county should
now give him all the support they can.
The Citizen is of more value to their
county than they will ever find out
until it is gone. Gilmore, don't throw
yourself away for the sake of publishing
the chest county paper in the State"
which. without doubt, you are now doing.
The "glory" you may obtain will never
take the place Of the dollars you expend.
Communities should understand that
they have what they are willing to sup
port-legitimately. And when a paper
goes too far beyond the actual needs of
the vicinity in which it is published,
then that paper is treading upon the
precipice of failure. We hope to see you
succeed, but remember, you can't pub
lish = "nonpareil paper in a long
primer community"

The long winter evenings will soon
be around again and the need of pleas
ant resort wherein our young men could
spend their evenings in . more profta.
BILE manner than at present is sadly
needed. Other towns around US boast
of their library association-and proba.
bly, have something to boast about. We
wish We could boast of one in lola. And
what is there to hinder the people of our
city putting their shoulders to the wheel
and getting such an association under
headway. Fifty or hundred members
with . monthly due of twenty-five or if
ty cents in . few years would give the
town q fine, free library. OF course
there Is some work attached to such an
undertaking but would not the advan-
tages that would accrue more than repay
for al expense and troubled We believe
it would. And how easy it would be to
get two hundred persons in this city to
give dollar subscription for the purpose
of founding free library.
It would add to the attractions of
our town and neighborhood. It
would be . godsend to many of our
people who are unable to purchase books
on their own account. It would fur.
nish safe and pleasant resort for our
young men and women. It would be
one Of the most pleasant and profitable
places to spend . winter evening imagi-
nable.
And Why can't the subject Be tallDd
mp, acted upon and active work COM
Let the Y. II. G. A. take hold
Of it; let the ministers and church mem
bers take hold let our business men
take hold let our mechanics and work.
ingmen take hold. In . religious, moral,
Docial and business pointof view it would
be credit 70 the town and rebound to
The benefit Of eaeh and every citizen.

Mr.. Marshall is staying at Mr.. Robt
Cooks.
-Messrs. Hartman and Casmire and
Cook 4 Co., had their show windows
piled full of fruit cans at the commence
ment of the season. We judged at the
time that they would have cans left over.
During the past three weeks Hartman
and Casmire have been making cans At
the rate of forty dozen day aud are
still behind on their orders. We sup
pose Cook and Co. have done their share
and it is small estimate to say that the
two firms will have sold one hundred
and fifty gross Of tin cans by the time
the fruit season is over.
For the first time since the organi.
zation of our county fair the premium
list is published and bound at home.
We can truthfally say that it compares
we'll with any job that has been done in
former yesrs by the city job Offices. The
price paid rs this year was just one doll
lar more than was paid for the Same
work at Kansas City last year. We
think that the fact that we have done

NEW MAP OF THE OHIO VALLEY
There has just been laid upon our tsole
by the publishers, Messrs. Titus, oim-
mons & Titus, An illustrated atlas OF the
Inner Ohio river and valley, from Pitts
bureh to Cincinnati. The work OF get
ting up this atlas was commenced some
two wears ago; at the same time can
vsss of the river towns for subscribers TO
the work was also made,ebut doubtless
many who subscribed for the work nave
forgotten all about it. Those who are
subscribers to the book, however, Will
ind that in making haste slowly the
publishers have presented to their pat
rons q work embracing the entire valley
Of the Ohio for 8 mile and a halt on
each side of the river. There IL
no guess work IN the location OF towns
cities and villages.
The distances are all laid down from
United States official and special surveys,
and the utmost care having been taken
the notation of distances may be regard.
ed as absolutely correct. The other sur =.
vsys locating the towns and all points Oh
interest were made by patient, pains
taking and thoroughly practical engl.
neers, and every line and point has been
laid down with great precision. In thus
speaking of the work we are OF course
governed in our opinion, as all our read
ers will be, who examine the WCrk, oy
such portions OF the river valley as are
familiar TO US. embracing our own I'm.
mediate locality and number OF pro-
minent points both above and below TINS
city. These we find to be portrayed win
great distinctness and accuracy.
The pages form sections OF greater or
less longitudal distance, but so consecu-
lively arranged that if the leaves were
taken out of the book they might be laid
down edge to edge, forming oontlnu-
GUS panorama of the Ohio Valley. There
is nothing to confuse the mind In tracing
the connection of the different parts.
The engrsvings, representing the 10
table scenery ut various points Oh the
river, the numerous manufacturing es'
Adjustments, and other subjects OF inter
est, are exceedingly fine, ard, Judging
by those with which we are familiar III
this city and in Martins Ferry and Bel
lsire are very accurate delineations. Ihe
work appears to US TO have been gotten
up with q conscientious regard to accu'
racy of location and dellneation of all the
parts. The mechanical execution OF the
work is excellent beyond criticism. No
such work IN the form OF an atlas has
ever been presented to the attention o.
our citizens.
