The marriage of Richard ]. Tanning,
Clerk elect of the Supreme Court, with
Miss Celia Miller, daughter of Thomas
Miller, of Columbus, took place Thursday
at st. Joseph's Cathedral, Bishop Rose
Grams officiating,
A little three year old child named
Clara Nevis, of Crestline, while playing
in the yard Wednesday fell into cistern
which his mother had left open. The
child being missed, search was made, but
found too late, life having been extinct
some time.
A fire broke outin Crawford g. Zeller's
cracker factory, corner of Bloom and Wal
nut streets, Mansfield, Wednesday night
of last week. Loss $4,000; insurance $4,-
900.
The post office at Hudson was entered
sometime between half past ten o'clock
Sunday and two O'Clock Monday morning
by burglars. The safe was drilled and
blown open and some $l,25 in cash ab-
stracted and few stamps. The work
seemed to have been done by practical
hand. No clue to the burglars.
At Dayton on Sunday, between II and
IL o'clock, Jacob Smith, a groceryman,
was instantly killed by falling down q
stairway. He was going up stairs to bed,
carrying little child in his arms. His
wife ahead of him heard an exclamation,
and he slipped and fell backward striking
the back of his head against the door sill
at the foot of the stairs with such force
that his neck was dislocated.
By the 18th inst. the Lake Shore Rail-
way Company will have reduced the
number Of its employees about one thou

Some weeks ago N. Patterson & Co., of
Columbus, his son being the Co., heavily
engaged in hardware, made an assign
ment. Since that time, attorneys repre-
senting foreign claimants, have been at
work seeking TO turn up new assets. The
principal of the house, on oath, has sta
ted that the full assets ofthe concern had
been turned over to the assignee, but it
has since been discovered that the junior
member, mere boy, had private de-
posite of twelve thousand dollars in a
banking house here, which he drew out
after the assignment was completed, and
took with him to Canada. Patterson, sen.
ior, denies all knowledge of this money.

ST. LOUIS, November 9.--0ne of the
most horrible crimes that has happened
in the western country for long time
was perpetrated five miles from the viii
lage of Columbia, in Monroe County Ill
inois, eighteen miles from st. Louis, last
Wednesday morning young German
named Henry Getz and his wife being
foully murdered and their house pillaged
On the morning stated, Charles Nash
back, a neighbor went to the house of
Getz 10 see him on business. He found
every thing very quiet about the place,
and no one answering to his rap on the
door,he opened it and went inside. Nash.
back found the front room entirely strip
ped of its furniture, and having sus-
picion that there had been foul play, he
proceeded to make an examination Of the
other rooms.
Just at the edge of the cellar-door he
discovered the dead body of Mrs. Getz.
The body was almost entirely concealed
WlJh pllO VI Guuni uIdCh6Ib anu h@JCu6u
plunder that had been placed on it,noth-
ing being visible except the head, which
was terribly mutilated being almost cleav-
ed in two by blow from an ak.
Outside Of the rear door there were
evidences of desperate struggle, the
ground being torn up as if by tramping
feet. Nashback went away in great haste,
and summoned the neighbors, who made
more careful examinations and evidence
was found that not only the wife, but the
husband himself had been murdered, and
his body dragged off to the woods in the
direction of creek near by, and thrown
into the creek. Two mules and wagon
belonging to Getz were missing, as we'll
as every thing of value in his house.
1t was suspected that Charles Strahl,
alias Joe Engler, had committed the nur.
der, loaded the wagon with the household
property and fed. Engler had cabin in
the Columbia bottom, and visit to his
place disclosed the fact that he was mis-.
sing. A Constable and a posse of three
men started out in search of the fugitive
murderer, and traced him from place to
place until they arrived at st, Louis. 1t
appears that Strahl disposed of several
articles taken from the house of his vic
Tins to pawnbrokers.
This morning he got very drunk and
drove the two mules and wagon to some
sale stables on Fifth street, offering the
team for fifty dollars. The pursuing Con-
stable reported at police headquarters,
and hearing of the arrest of Strahl, called
at the station and identified him as the
murderer of Getz and wife. Strahl was
very drunk when confronted by his acCu-
sers, and neither denied or admitted his
guilt. He is notorious criminal and is
suspected of other foul murders. He will
be taken back to Illinois at once for trial.
Getz, the murdered man, was a young
farmer in excellent standing with his
neighbors. There is great Indignation
over the brutal crime, and the prisoner
will be lucky ifhe escapes the vengeance
of Judge Lynch.

NEW ORLEANS.
The Trouble With Kellogg, Wells and Ander.
SOn-Cigar-MakerS Strike Extending.

New ORLEANS, November 9.-The haste
made by Kellogg toget his case before the
Senate is due, it is said here, to the fact
that Legislative Investigating Commit
tee have overhauled nearly all of the rec
ords left by him in the safe at the ExeCu-
tive Office, and which, it is said, will make
when published record for him that
would cause his rejection were the Louis
lana case to 60 over until the regular ses-
sion. 1 haveIt from high State official
that there is ample evidence now to con-
vict Wells and Anderson, Returning
Board members, both of whom are now
in Washington bull-dozing Sherman and
Hayes. Wells wants the Collectorship
himself first, his second choice being An
derson.
The cigar.makers' strike is on the in
crease. Two thousand cigar makers, class

is an advance of So a thousand. The best
of order is preserved by the strikers, who

SENATOR Beck, Of Kentucky, last week
introduced bill to take customs duties
in legal tender notes instead Of requiring
gold. This should have been done long
age, or rather, should never have been de-
parted from. The fact of our Govern
ment issuing paper money, and making
it legal tender for all debts except its
own custom duties, has always seemed
to us piece of iniquity, unparalleled in
history. This undoubtedly was the chief
cause of depreciation, and has been the
reason that greenbaCks were not par
long since.
