The lecture of Hon. A B. Meacham
at the Methodist church on Wednesday
evening last, was banquet Of great rich
ness. The subject was intensely interest
ing, and the views taken al war with all
the notions commonly entertained of the
Indian character; as literary and elocu-
tionary effort, it took high rank. The
tragedy of the Lava Beds was the general
subject, and the character of Capt. Jack,
the Modoc Chief, occupied prominent
place in the discourse, as representative
of his race. The wrong and provocstions
of the fractional tribe, through the care
lessness and disregard of pledges and
treaty stipulations, on the part of the gov
ernment, were at the foundation of all the
blood and destruction of life that marked
That terrible tragedy, in which Candy and
Thomas and many others lost their lives.

was while on this duty that the experiences
named we're gone through.
Mr.. Meacham has couple of books from
his own pen, which he furnishes at the
close of his lectures. One of these is a

Decoration Day.

Arrangements for the proper observance
of decoration day are progressing, with
the prospects of successful termination.
The general committee, composed Of MEM
bers of our military companies, under
whose auspices the arrangements are be-
being made, met at the artillery armOry
last Thursday evening, and from the secre-
tary's minutes we take the following:
Mr.. NJ. Il. Haskell signifed his willing
ness to take the position of officer OfEthe
day. 1t was resolved to invite the Grand
Army of the Republic, Masons, Odd Eel
lows, St. Joseph's Temperance Society, the
city fire department and the children Of
the day and Sunday schools to take part
in the procession. An invitation is to be
extended to the G. A. R. to act as decor
atine committee, and also to send COM
mittee to confer with the general comm.
1t was decided, the procession form and
march first to Edgewood Cemetery east
Ashtabula), there read the burial service,
fire salute and decorate the graves; then
march to Chestnut Grove Cemetery, and
have the address and general ceremonies.
Our military companies are deserving of
much praise for the earnest manner in
which they are moving in this matter, and
we doubt not that our citizens generally
will aid them to the best Of their abilities,

A Serious Runaway.

!. A runaway and general smashup occur
red on Main Street last Friday afternoon,
about four o'clock, that has not been equal
ed for many day. Mr.. ]. K. Stebbins
had just driven his horse up to his store
and alghted from his buggy, when the an
imal took start up Main Street. The
first damage done was TO carriage owned
by Richard Stevens which was standing in
front of the Erie Store. Stebbins horse
and carriage passed between the curb stone
and this carriage, breaking the hitching
strap and several posts. but strange to say
not seriously injuring Stevens carriage.
A little daughter of Francis Reno, who
was crossing at this point barely escaped
being trampled under the feet of the runa-
way horse. In front of Bootes' store was
hitehed ahorse and carriage owned by Rev.
D. L. Hiekok of Kingsville; the harness
was stripped from his horse and the car
rage badly broken. A crosswalk in front
of Lampman's place was knocked into the
middle of the street and Stebbins' buggy
brought up against another post badly
wrecked. The horse rushed on starting
another horse attached to a buggy owned
by R. Il. Campbell, which was in front Of
Patterson's place. Cambell's horse ran
down Main Street but was caught in front
of Carlisle & Tyler's store. In the mean
time friend Stehbins' trotter had reached
Savage's store and dashed between the
sidewalk and a team owned by VIM. c.
Bassett of Dorset. The driver was stand
ing on the sidewalk holding the reins and
as the runaway horse passed under them
he pulled one of the reins from the drivers
hand. The team wheeled round and started
down Main. Street, the driver trying to
hold them. by one rein. They found a
clear track until they overhauled Camp
bells horse and carriage, which had just
been stopped. One of the team horses
jumped on top of this buggy, breaking it
down, upsetting it and landing the wagon
on the top of all. By this time a large
crowd of spectators had gathered and the
horses were secured.
The damage will probably foot up to
$500, and who viii settle the bills remains
to be seen. Mr. Stebbins says that he had
just stepped from his carriage for the pur-
pose of hitching his horse when the animal
startad
