COMMON PLEAS COURT opened out lively on
Tuesday morning, Judge Okey on the Bench,
with Clerk Darrah and Sheriff Kinney at
their respective posts. Most of the attorne VS.
in the county, and several foreign ones, were
in attendance. The greater portion Of the
forenoon was occupied in call of the docket.
After the noon recess the Grand Jury was
called, and the following regular jurors re-
ported: VIM. Lupton. s. NJ. Thompson, Jas
F. Hutchinson, John j. Heskett, Thomas C.
Brown, John w. Meyers, VIM. Tidball. Geo.
Kemp; Eden Evans, John Shepherd, sr., Hen
ry p. Keyser, jr., and VIM. Lodge. The
panel not being full, Andrew Alexander, VIM.
II. Hays and Cephas Carroll, were by order
of the Court, called to fill it, and John j.
Heskett was appointed Foreman, and they
we're sworn, and charged by the Court in the
usual manner, and retired to their room to
deliberate. Already eighty witnesses have
been summoned to appear before them to tell
what they know about the 'wickedness' in
Belmont county, and il is not likely that they
will conclude their work and report to the
Court before Saturday. Indications are that
the term will be a busy one, continuing at
least until Christmas, and that large amount
of business will be disposed of.

Mr.. R. SUTTON, of Ashland, Ohio, map
publisher of much experience, was in town
on Monday, looking over the field with a
view of preparing and publishing a County,
Township and Historical Atlas of Belmont
county. We had the pleasure of examining
his Atlas of Marion and Union counties, and
find that the same arrangement if followed in
an Atlas of Belmont county, would not only
afford much needed information, but place
within easy reach a valuable work of local
historical interest and everyday reference
We hope that Mr.. Sutton, if he concludes to
undertake the publication of the work now
under contemplation, will be literally sus-
tanned by our people.

The Forest and Stream gives the following
pointed advice to sportsmen, which may be Of
service TO some people in this locality:
Don't point your gun at yourself. Don't
point your gun at any one else. Don't carry
your gun SO that its range includes all your
hunting companions. Don't try to find out
whether your gun is loaded or not by shut
ting one eye and looking down the barrel
with the other. Don't use your gun for a
walking stick. Don't climb over fence and
pull your gun through muzzle foremost
Don't use your gun for sledge hammer.
Don't carry your gun full cooked. Don't
carry ynur gun with the hammer down. Don't
be fool. Don't you forget it.

THE Baron Manufacturing Company, at
Bellaire, are determined that tie world shall
not long remain in darkness, for during the
month of October they manufactured 1850
dozens of the Buckeye Lantern-the largest
number ever before manufactured by the
company in a given month. The number of
operatives have been increased to 122, suf-
cient to turn out during the month of Novem-
Der 5000 dozens lanterns. The popularity of
the new Buckeye can only be accounted for on
the ground of its superiority to any other
lantern. The orders for them seem to be
limited only by the capacity of the Baron
Company to manufacture them. They are
ow over 1900 dozens behind their orders.
