WE regret to learn that the officers
of the ~ p. Railroad are seriously
contemplating the withdrawal of the
Ravenna ACCOMMODATION train from

advantage to the business men and
others of our town and other points
between this and Cleveland who have
business i'm that city as it leaves here
at an early hour in the morning and
returns at about seven o'clock in the
evening thus giving those desiring to
visit the city to have nearly full day
in which to transact their business.
If the tram be taken off it will
b, because it does not do suf-
cient business to pay expenses, and
once withdrawn, it will not soon,
if ever, be replaced. Would it not be
we'll for those of our citizens visiting
the Forest City TO make it point to
use this train in doing so?

THAT BARN RAIslNG.-Thc barn
raising of Mr.. n. S. Olin, in the south
east part of Streetsboro, on Thursday
last, of which we gave notice last week
was quite an interesting and pleasant
affair. The attendance was large, ,some
15O or 200 persons being present from
different sections but mostly compos.
ed of the neighbors and townsmen Of
Mi. Olin. The work Of raising tie
immense frame was accomplished in
the short space OF about three hours
This was owing to the admirable ar
raDgements made and the complete
manner in which the timbers went to-
gether, not mortice or tenon rcquir-
ing the least particle OF trimming or
alteration in the least. After the frame
was up the large crowd in attendance
repaired to the lawn in front of Mr.
OIin's residence, where most sump-
tuous repast had been prepared for
them. and of which they partook with
a relish. Only one slight accident oc.
Cured to mar the pleasure of the oc
C 'sion. While raising some of the
timbers, pike pole fell striking
young man. whose name we did not
learn, in the face i'm the region Of the
left eye. causing a painful wound
though the skin was not broken.
Mr.. Olin will have one of the fines,
barns in the county. 1t is &c feet long
by 40 feet wide i'm the main part with
an addition at the east end built Of
stone fifteen feet long and running the |
entire width of the building with a
she'd roof, in which are to be three
box stalls for the accommodation o.
sick and disabled animals. At the
west end is an approach running
across the width of the building, with
; solid stone wall at either side and
underneath this is vegetable cellar.
Everything about the barn is substan-
nal and constructed with strict regard
% convenience. The frame is the
work of our fellow .townsman Oliver
Green, and is first class job, doing
great credit to Mr.. Green's skill and
ability as carpenter.

no contagion eyer spread with more

was meeting of Township officials,
patent right men, farmers, lawyers,

On Thursday morning, while MIR.

on West Bowery Street, were absent
from home, tramp visited the house
and demanded of the daughter, a
young lady some nineteen years Of
age, who was alone in the house, some
thing to eat, which was denied, and
he went away making threats. Soon
after he returned with a companion,
and the two renewed the demand, say
ing that if they We're refused they
would be heard from again. The
young lady, somewhat agitated, seized
her fathers revolver and fired two
shots through the window at the
scamps, who stood not upon the order
of their going, but uaD,osed the ranch at
once.
