RIcHLAND Goa horrible outrage was com.
seems that young man named Ruggles, while
working in corn field was attacked by two
tramps and terribly beaten. The fiends then mu
tilated him in a nameless manner and fled. The
country was soon aroused and parties from Fred
eriCktown Independence and Bellville started in
pursuit of the iends One was caught between
the two latter places and is now under arrest the
other villain escaped but will probably be cap
tured.
NJ D. Harter has been appointed receiver of the
fouringmill of John Staub d Co. of Mansfield We
learn that this valuable mill will be sold the lat
ter part OF this month
The necessity tor the better preservation Of the
peace and the adoption of some means by which
passengers at the depot will no longer suffer an
novance at the hands Of the bus runners, has
long been apparent, So numerous have been the
outrages committed upon passengers by runners
for the rival lines that our city has already OBJ
tained an unenviable reputation in this respect,
Fights between the opposing lines have been Of
frequent occurrence. One took place on Tuesday
morning however, which exceeds in disgraCeful.
ness anything that has yet occurred. It took
place about 10 o'clock at the B. & o. R. R. depot.
accounts are conflicting as to the cause of the
affray but it resulted in the terrirle beating of
one Of the runners of the old line named John
Ornsdorf by "DOsS" Bell bus driver of the other
line who nsed the butt of loaded whip, severely
injuring Ornsdorf on the head and face. Bell,
Henry Newman and Brownwell were arrested for
participating in the fight. The Mayor fined Bell
$40 and costs with five dayS in iail the others were
fined, including costs, ST. Harmon Newman,
Eli Carter and John Hipp were also arrested un.
der the same charge but plead not guilty tits
hoped that effective measures will be taken to
break up this lawlessness at the depots.

McGOozLE's PICNIC.-The other night Mr.. Nc
Goo2le who lives in the 4th ward. had royal
picnic. Nobody was present except Mr.. and Mrs.
McGoo2e, and they Oere present by large odds =.
McGoozle came home fromthe 10 (hic) lodge about
O'Clock, p. M, and as he opened the door with
a night key, said to himself Mac, If evers ere
moment when qui- (hic)-ie should reign in
your household, nowzer time" And he braced
up preparatory to making noiseess entry. Was
it noiseless? The echo that hoated about Nc
Goodies ears for the following ten minutes says 1t
wasn't Mrs, Meg. is small but mighty. Mr..
McGoozle opened the door gave lurch and
landed fiat under table with a kerosene lamp
and two chairs on top Of him. ed d-n er
cat" calculated he. Mrs. MCGOozle knew there
waSnta cat about the house, and impulsvely
arose made her exit from the bed room twined
her fingers lovingly in her husbands hair, and It
wasn't false hair either and the way she slam
med him around that room would remind one of
base ball match where twelve innings were
played and the score called for one to one, only
Mrs. MCGoozle was two. She put the old man to
bed, after she had mopped every thread of the
carpet with him, and next morning, when he
opened the eyes in his enlarged head, he hastily
awakened his wife and began iawing her because
she hadn't walked up and helped him when he
"had such hi of a time with burglar last
night" Mrs, McGoozle didn't say much.

hands, according to Iaw. He
desires that all who can make

fore the end Of the tar-paying

Every taxpayer bnOws that it
is not pleasant to call at the
TreaSlrer'S Office when the
orOwd is large and the Jam dis
agreeable. The Treasurer there
fore hopes that the friends oUer
the County wjU make it cOnUe-
Ajent to call and pay their tax

FRIGHTFUL ACCIDENTAL Dalton short time
ago, a FIVE year old son of Frank Kasler crawled
up and reclined on the roof down into the well
when he lost his balance and fell, striking the
oil oaken bucket and knocking it into the well
as he went in himself Through great presence
of mind or fortunate chance, the childish hands
graSped the rope with secure hold and being
light of weight, the windass in its revolutions
broke the weight of the fall, and although de.
scent of As feet was made the child was but
slightly injured. A max descended the rope into
the well as soon as possible, and after getting
down part way the little fellow asked-"Is that
you, lke?" Yes well, come ON I'm all
right" And he was.
