with the latter's wife, who returned the

together the Secretary enters to warn the
Governor of q conspiracy 10 kill him.
The Governor places the unknown lady
in charge of his Secretary, with the in
junction to not ask who she is. but to re-
turn her to the city. On the way back
they are encountered by the conspirators,
who insist upon seeing the lady's face, and
thus disclose to the Secretary his own wife.
He is SO sure of her guilt that he immedi-
ateIy determines to murder the Governor,
sabs his victim, and he hears from his
dying lips that his wife is innocent, and
that foreign appointment had been
planned by the Governor for The Secretary
in order to carry his wife away from all

AS TO CHI CUL ALTON

The representatives OF the Cincinnati Daily
Times having had the audacity to dispute the
large circulation of the Cincinnati DAILY STAR,
before the County Commissioners, when
the award of the contract fr publishing
the delinquent personal tax list was about
to be made to U.s. we propose to settle the question
of circulation before the public as fully as we did
before the Commissioners. We therefore propose
to the Daily Times to prove the following propo-
sitions:
FIRST-That the DAILY STAR has published and
circulated more papers any one day during he
present year than the Daily Times has during the
whole six days OF any week in that time.
SECOND-Taat the DAILY STAR circulates in
the City of Cincinnati regularly mJre than three
times as many papers as the Daily Times.
THIRD-That the DAILY STAR circu,ates in
Coyngt II, Newport, Ludlow, West Covington
and Dayton, K.,-the cities on the opposite bank
OF the Ohio-lrore than ten times as many
papers as the Daily Times.
FOURTH-That in the cities fSpringfeld, Ham
nton and Piqua, Ohio; Lexington, Covington and
Newport Kentucky; Greensburg, Vincennes and
Lavrenceburg, Indiana-three representative cit
les In each OF the three States tributary to Cncn-
nati-the circulation of the DAILY STAR is more
than fifteen times that of the Daily Times
FIFTH-Thatt the DAILY STAR has lists of regu-
lar subscribers in three times as many places
as the Daily Times, and that these lists of the
DAILY STAR average three times as many
subscribers as those OF the Daily Times
We challenge the Daiiy Times to
a con EadictiOn of these five prOpO-
sitiOns, and offer to refer the matter
to any fair person of their selection,
and afford every means of arriving
at the truth, SO FAR as the circuia-
