Another walking maniac passed through
town Tuesday. He gave his name as
Isaiah Fleming, and had been on the road
from Lawrence County, Ohio, for seventy
two days. A cart consisting of two iron
wheels on an axle, surmounted by board
on which was bound his few extra gar
ments and grub stake" had been dragged
behind him all the fifteen hundred long
miles. He was bound for Leadvile, and
the object of his tramp was an lily defined
idea OF doing something that no one else
had done.

After the good Deacon Smith has chimed
in so admirably with our amiable Wilbur
IN serving up in juicy suggestiveness the re.
cent scandal it is pity to have them fall
out about the shape Of the ladys nose. A
committee of conference should be appoint
ed at once, and the eyes and nose be placed
upon the record. "a handsome nose"
treated jointly by Smith and Storey, would
make very telling magazine article.

Mrs. Hayes-Rutherford, do you really
think that Mr.. Conkling ever did these
naughty things that the newspapers now
accuse him Of?

better Republican than Foster; then why
not all true Democrats and Republicans
unite and elect Piatt Governor of Ohio?

A certain Cincinnati Professor claims to
have written an entirely new and original
play, called Eagle Wally." From the
synopsis given it will be recognized as a
dramatized version of "Gier Wally,"
novel of Frau Won Hilern's, that a few
years ago attracted much attention and was
acknowledged as remarkable work OF tic-
tion. Frau Wilhelmina Won Hillern has
been called the Mrs Stowe of Germany,
and is OF noble family. Not very long ago
she sent an indignant protest to Bertha
Schmidt, who had adopted, and, according
to the aristocratic frau. desecrated in 50
doing the name of Won Hillern, enrolling il
among the names of the pioneer pedes-
triennes Bertha duly apologized for trot-
ting this illustrious cognomen over the
land. Now it remains to be seen what the
Cincinnati Professor will say in ext enua-
ton of this originality"

claration, by packed Supreme Court, that
the Fourteenth Amendment was not consti-
nationally ratified; (2) to measures for the
assumption of Confederate bonds by the

The harmonies are being preserved in the
Ohio campaign. Hon. Thos. Ewing spoke
from the same platform in Licking County
the other day with Hon. Chas Reemelin,
the candidate for State Auditor on the
ticket with him. 1nasmuGh as Mr. Ewing
has been willing to take his money as soft
as fap-jack, provided the Government
would bite its monogram on the corner, and
Mr.. Reemelin has always stoutly upheld
that money should be made as hard as
chilled steel, it was feared that the great
men would not be able to reconcile them
selves before the people, But they met and
spoke to the hairy and horny-handed
masses at Pataskala and the people didn't
know which to like the best-the apostle of
modern greenbackism or the noble advocate
Of the financial systems of Rome and
Greece.

But good Deacon Smith does. A man
may be IAN expert" and yet be physically
disqualified from believing the innocence
of men and women when charged with
such crime. This seems to be the honest
condition of the Gazette. While grave diff. |
ferences exist between Deacon Smith and
Henri Watterson, we are glad to note that
there is nothing that separates Smith and
our good Wilbur Storey but "the shape of |
a nose" If our suggestion Of Committee
OF Conference is accepted, perfect amity
may be expected, and "the line of beauty |
