One of the latest enterprises among
our people is the organization of a
Brass Band. For some time it was
doubtful whether enough of our young
men would take hold to make it a
success, but we understand that a suf-
ficient number have expressed a will
lingness to do their part, and now we
are sure to have band. We hope the
boys will meet with success, and that
our citizens will come forward and
help them In their attempt.
There is also talk of organizing a
Literary Society at the Center.

stancy of Old Prob puts a blue phase

While our evenings are passed in diff
ferent social amusemslAts, the oppor-
tunities for hunting by day are not
neglected. A few days ago, some of
our prominent marksmen explored Mr..
Elam Underwood's copse in pursuit of
rabbits. This was dreadful day for
the cottOn-tails, for when such teams
as Messrs. NJ, W., u, and DIR. Nc.
point their muzzles it is sure death to
bird or quadruped. Howbeit, the re-
suit of the chase was rabbits, ] par

excellent.
The entertainment given by the Sc
lect School was spoken of in the high

immense audience both nights. The
great throng who could not be accom-

repetition, which request will be COM
piled with, and on Saturday eve., No
vember Doth, we will have Uncle TOMS

Mine lnsDector.

The Governor hiss appointed Mr..
David Owens, of Sodom, Trumbull
county, to the position of State Inspec-
tor of Mines, Uice James d. Poston, re-
signed. State Treasurer Howells, who
has known Mr.. Owens for many years
states that he has been practical miner
all his life and is gentleman who is
we'll thought of by the miners gen.
orally. He has been Secretary of the
Miners Union, and fully identified
with the interests of that class. He is
believed to be fully competent for the
duties of the position. Mr.. Howells
says in politics he is termed liberal
Republican, being conservative in
opinion, and of sober and industrious
habits. He was born in Wales, but
has lived in the Mahoning Valley
about twenty-five years.
The Governor states that in making
the appointment he was Influenced
solely by the desire to fill the office
with a practical minesS and a compe-
tent man, and believes that Mr.. Owens
will prove himself such. He made no
inquirses as to his politics. At the
time of Mr.. Poston's appointment Mr..
Owens was not q candidate for the
Office, but recommended others. His
own recommendations were numer-
ous and very satisfactory. The new

Pooling their Business.

The brewers of Cincinnati have been
holding frequent secret meetings re-
Gently, and it is reported they have
determined to merge their separate
interests in one gigantic brewing COM
pany with capital of $S,0OO,OOO. The
different breweries will be transferred
to this company and will be paid for
in stock. The company, through its
officers, will then control all brewer
les. 1t is stated that some such action
was necessary, for competition cut
prices SO low and obtaining customers
had become SO expensive that profits
to separate brewers were eaten up. If
the scheme is consummated, it will
revolutionize one of Cincinnati's most
extensive interests, and brewers say
produce better beer.
