SAYRROOK.

Eds. Iel.-Refreshing little shower, yes
terday, reviving things wonderfully; far
mers very busy planting corn and pOta-
toes.
Last Saturday night, some evil minded
person or persons, instead of being at
home studying over the Sunday-school les
son for the next day, pulled up three of the
maple trees that had been set out the week
before on the NJ. E. church lot. This
comes as near total depravity as well can
be in this nineteenth century, and we hope
their sins will find them out.
On Sunday night pig was stolen from
Ulysses Atwater, at least bush. Of wheat,
some corn and potatoes-amount not deli
nitely known-was taken from the granary
of Jesse N. Wright, and both lard and but
ter from Wesley Harvey. The wagon that
carried this freight, like the men that
drove it, made crooked paths, and by this
was followed to Morgan next day by Moses
Wright and others, portion of the stolen
property recovered, and three men arrest
ed-Uwo of them named Brown and one
Leverage. We were unable to learn before
what magistrate the examination was con-
Quoted, but sufficient evidence was brought
out to cause them to be bound over to
court. We understand one of the Browns
was bailed, the others were not. During
the past year there has been good deal of
property taken from Saybrook in this way,
and we hope all such gangs will yet be
broken up.
The annual meeting of the Woman's
Foreign Missionary Society was held at the
NJ E. church on Sunday evening last at
$50 p. m. One pleasing fact connected
with this society is that it is composed Of
members of both churches here, working in
harmony for the advancement of a common
object; it numbers over 20 members, and
they have raised 1921, exclusive Of other
missionary money by the churches from
other sources. J.J.

Mrs. A. E. McLain returned from her
visit East, on Tuesday last.
Fred Carlisle, from East Saginaw, is
among our Ashtabnla visitors.
We hear of the marriage of Mr.. A. B.
Bixbee, of Michigan, and Miss Martha
Metcalf, of Ashtabula.
We are very glad to learn that Mrs.
John Perew is slowly recovering from her
long and tedious sickness.
Col. W. T. Fitch of the old 29th Regi-
Rent, was in town last Monday and wit
messed the target practice of the Light
Guards.
H. B. Tower left Ashtabula for Cali
fornia oD Thursday of the present week, on
prospecting trip, intending if the surface
indications suit, to return and take his
family for a settlement on the Pacific
coast.
Mr.. and Mrs. R. NJ. Moore of Erie,
Pa, and Mr.. L. g. Hanna of Cleveland,
have taken rooms for the season at the
Lakeside House at the Harbor. Landlord
Adams says the business of the season is
much in advance of the same stage last
year.
Fred Russell, whose departure for
California was announced in these columns
few weeks ago, came back last week full
ly satisfied that the climate of the Pacific
coast was not adapted to asthma patients.
He therefore followed medical advice and
retraced his steps at once.
Mrs. Mitchell and Miss Mary. who spent
the winter at Jacksonville, Fla, returned
on Thursday last, very much improved in
health. This residence in the sunny South
was sought more especially for the benefit
of Miss Mary, and the advantages reaped
are quite apparent. Both speak in high
terms of Florida and its climate.
George Mckenzie left home on Tues
day last for St. Louis, on his way-accom-
panied by an uncle-to Texas, where an
other uncle has been located for a number
of years. in stock and sheep raising.
Should he be pleased with the country, he
may remain and make Texas his place of
residence and the scene of driving his
stakes for start in life. George is a SEN
sible, true boy, and there is no danger of
his forgetting that he represents Ashtabula
in the lone star state.
Mr.. P F. johnson, of Bridgeport, Ct,
is taking two or three weeks vacation
among Ashtabula friends. Coming as he
does from the midst of manufacturing in
terests, he has the means of knowing how
they are affected by the times. He assures
us that they are not over active, and reit-
crates the sentiment so comonly heard
that New York business languishes, and as
these manufactures are connected with
New York city houses, they are very
good gauge. The sewing machine estab-
lishments located at East Bridgeport, Civ
ing it great activity, are of course, feeling
the effects of the running out Of their pat
ents, and will be more or less quiet until
they shall be started again on new basis.

Eds. Tel.-The lake fisheries at this
point have grown into business of large
Importance, and this seasons catch thus
far has been larger than usual. Besides
the numerous smaller craft, a tug is en-
ployed in the daily transportation of nets,
and fish, and the towing of boats to the
fishing grounds-some 10 or 10 miles from
shore.
Last Monday evening the regular month
ly temperance meeting was held, at which
some spirited measures we're adopted to

KINGSVILLE.

Eds. Tel.-Another barn has been burn
ed at the Infrmary-the one that came so
near going at the previous fire. A colored
boy from Conneaut has been brought up
and held for triaron suspicion Of guilt. He
has told so many stories, that we have to
discount from 30 to 70 per cent. from al
most everything he utters. Some of our
railroad men claim that he was all the af-
ternoon, including the time of the burn
ing, on the road on his way to Conneaut.
That looks something like an abb Sto-
ries are afoat that superintendent Curtiss
has many times driven this fellow off the
premises, and thereby incurred his i'll will.
The fact is, this year has been good one
for burning barns contiguous to the In
fimary. More anon.
We have not as yet said word about
our cheese factory. 1t is, however, doing
the usual amount of business.
Mr.. Lyman Luce intimated some weeks
ago, that drink of buttermilk could be
had at almost any time, at the AmbOy
creamery. We take it, therefore, that that
is in full blast, also.
Our union prayer meetings of several
years standing, convened at the Presbyte
rian church on Sunday evening. Rev. Mr..
Hickok having charge, saw fit to introduce
the subject of temperance as a theme for
prayer and consideration. A short time
before the meeting, Rev. Comings received
dispatch saying that some of your boys
were coming down to meet and talk to us
on the subject on Wednesday evening
next. The large audience made up from
the three churches, afforded favorable
opportunity to give the notice. 1t will be
at the Presb. church.
Between the Spectators and the Rus
sian-Turko war, there is a fine chance for
some of us turning bran-bread philosO-
pliers. Flour at three or four dollars a
sack, and likely to stay there, will furnish
employment for all our inventive genius in
making both ends meet.
Peach and cherry trees are showing off
to good advantage, and give promise Of
fruit.
A firm of butchers-Pettis & Beardsley,
have opened up in the building recently
occupied as a saloon, which theyi have
bought. Between them and Miller and
Freeman, steaks and roasts will be likely
to improve, as competition is the life of
business. G.

untainted with trickery and cunning arti-
fees to gain victory, or making it a mat

says. SIT is a model that should be initial

1t is but justice to Mr.. Field to say that
he will do anything in his power to further
an enterprise of this kinda traek-here.
He has already broken the land, and in
fact but little more remains to be done to
put it in shape for contests of horse speed.
1t is better for the horse, for the carriage,
and in fact, it is practical economy to have
a smooth, graded course to speed horses
on, instead of doing so on the public
streets-which are not only Uttered with
odds and ends, but full of pitch holes and
street crossings. Let our lovers of good,
legitimate speed organize an association at
once.

Stephen Ray, pound master, is having

STRKW FLOWERS

Strew flowers above the Nations deadi
Oh. gather tentlerly around;
With garlands deck their lowly bed;
Tread lightly DER this hallowed groun'
For Us they died-the brave and true!
In gratitude We linger here,
And thus our offerings renew
With flowers of each returning year.
Peace hover DER each honored bed
Strew flowers above the Nations dead.
Their memories dwell in every heart;
Oh, keep them ever fondly pure.
From hill and plain and crowded mart,
Here gather while the years endure.
Can We forget the gifts they gave
The lives they yielded, at our needs?
Ger all the land from wave to wave,
Thus honored be their noble deeds.
Peace hover o'er each lowly bed
Strew flowers above the Nations dead.
