SaIadee's "EcIiDse.

Either as pleasure or business Buggy, has never
yet been approached in the art of Carriage build
ing. 1t is superior to all other buegies for its
Simplicity because the complete running gear
of these buggies Is constructed with fewer parts
and pieces than the ordinary side or elliptic bug
gles, and hence. Lightness, Strength and Dura-
bility are secured. There being no rigid connec-
ton between the axles no violent shock or strain
can be impaired to the wheels or any other part
of the vehicle.
An ease of motion is impaired to the body never
before equaled in any kind or class of Pleasure
Carriages, while, at the same time the buggy
presents an elegance in appearance and a Style
of Finish never yetapproached. The Eclipse is
positively an initiating Buggy there being
no piece or part about the entire gearing thai
can ever wear so as to become loose or s'shaky''
New Coupling is substituted for the ordinary
Fifth Wheel which is novelty for its Simplicity
safety, durability and elegance A Perfecr
Track. The Eclipse is the first Side Spring
vehicle ever yet produced without rigid perch
that will not throw the hind wheels out of track
when one spring is more heavily loaded than the
other, causing the Wagon to pull hard through 6
mud or heavy road. There is positively no side
motion to the body when the weight is more on
one side than on the other.
em using these buggies in my livery, and
keep them for SALE can recommend them in
every particular: They are the best riding buqpv
in the market: Any one wishing to buy q good
durable, easy riding buggy, if they will give me
call, can convince them In O short time that
what say Is true. r. X. KENNEDY. Agent

AN INDIAN CHIEF KILLED.-WAsH-
INGToN, November 1.-Some time ago a
report was received by Commissioner
Hayt from the Ponca reservation in the
Indian Territory that Big Snake, a chief
of the Poncas, was threatening to kill the
agent who last Summer caused his arrest
and imprisonment for month at Fort
Reno for brutal and disorderly conduct,
making himself terror to Indians as
well as agency employees. His re-arrest
was ordered, and detachment of soldiers
from Fort Reno was employed to effect it.
Big Snake, resisting arrest, was shot
dead by soldier. The occurrence caus-
ed considerable excitement among the
Indians, but it was soon quieted.

winter, the thermometer getting down for
three or four nights past considerably be-
low the freezing point. Our first snow

prepared for winter to set in just now

Prof. Richards Lectures.

Prof w. G. Richards, Of Chicago, gave
an interesting course of scientific lectures
Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings
at the Congregational church, with a
children's matinee Saturday afternoon.
Occurring the week before election the
attendance was not as large as would
otherwise have been, but still Professor
Richards was greeted with fair sized au-
diences and it is safe to say no course of
lie ctures ever delivered in the city gave
better or more general satisfaction. In
addition to his regular course Prof essor
Richards lectured on the Sun Monday
evening, entertaining his hears in fine
manner, and illustrating his subject in
the most brilliant and startling style.
We hope Prof Richards will visit us
again under more favorable auspices,
when we are certain he would have
crowded audiences to hear him.

The New Army Bill.

General B ,nning is confident that the
Bill for the Reorganization of the Ahriv
will pass. This is, also the opinion of
other members of the Joint Committee
which preparedi it When it ives repor-
ted, on December 18th, the opinion was
generally expressed that it would never
get bevond per .od of discussion, ,but
that was before it had been examined by
either civilians or military men. Since
opportunity has been given Cor ftsexami-
nation, however, it has met with greater
approval than its most sangaine' friends
expected. The very fact that it is in
dors. d by majority of the principal ar
my officers gives it great strength. There
will not be that occasion or opportunity
for opposition which would have been
presented if it had been such bill as
would have brought out a determined
disapproval in army circles. When the
bill was reported. General Banning and
General Burnside had an, early day
fixed for it's consideration fh theis respec.
tive Houses. In tue Senate it was'made
the special order for January 8th, and
in the Huuse tor January 9th. ft will
thus he considered simultaneously IN
both Houses. and it is believed that It can
be passed within a'week, with such amend
'ments as will make it more perfect, Gen
eral Sherman and other army officers
having treated the bill with great fairness
and suggested amendments in good faith
which will not alter the general plan and
scope of the bill. The Committee are
disposed to make it conform to thei- re
commenda'ions.

A SAD HOUSEHOLD!
Deserted Husband and Children.
Elopement In High Life.

The usually quiet little village o'
Bridgeville has been the scene of a sad
drama. woman's frailtv causing a once
happy home to be dishonored one
giving to MANY hearts, at this gladstone
holiday time, sorrow deeper than the
sorrow for the dead.
The principal characters in this sad
drama are we'll known to many residents
of Guernsey county. Mr.. Alex. Mitch
ell is both merchsnt and post-maste, ia
his village, On Christmas evening, dd.
ring his absence from home, his wife, in
company with her husbands nephew,
deserted her home, leaving three small
Ichildren.
Mr.. WE. Mitchell, the nephew, is q
Young man who had been employed as
clerk in his uncle's store for number ot
years, and boarded in his uncle's family
until some four or FIVE months ago
when he went to Kansas, but returned
lately. 7
On Christmas evening Mrs. Mitchell
told the neighbors that she was going tt
her brothers. John Worthings, who
lived about two miles away, to an oyster
supper. At dark ber trucks, which wert
already packed, were convened across
the Birds Run bridge,on the Newcomers
town road, where the lady and her com
panion waited with team, and in fes
moments they we're on their way to part;
unknown. Thus the guilty pair wen
out from what should have been hel
Eden. At Newcomerstown they pur
chased tickets for Indianapolis.
Rumor says that the deserted hns
bands cash account is $500 short. Tht
sparties are all of highly respectable
families and the lady has heretofort
borne an unblemished reputation.
