"The Children ofthe OUTLAW" very charming story
Of the middle ages It deals with that period OF Ger
man history in which rapaCiousness ard lawlessness
among mobiles and clergy were salient features. The
pictures presented Of Albert Of Regenstein and Odo

faithful representations ofbarOnial power and eccle-
siastica oppression. The scene laid In the lovely
regions OF the Harz. Mountains gives the author a
fair field for beauties Of description of which he has
well availed himself

HAPPY UNION.

Last week there was JOYFUL surprise and hap
py reunion al the residence OF MI August lsler, d
few miles west OF Canton. Mr.. ISler came with
his family from Canton Berne, Val. de st. inter"
switzerland, ten years ago and settled IN this
county, Mr.. Fred Junod brother of Mrs Isler,
came to this country thirty years ago and she had
not seen or heard of him In all that time. Her
son Fred, who is clerking in this city, by CORES.
pondiUg with parties in the old country, lea ned
that his uncle resided at SanquiL Oueida county,
Y, and he Immediately commenced a CORES
pOndence with him and got his consent to pay
Canton a wilt. Last week he arrived and FRED,
who had never seen him before, was OyerjOyed.
The day after Mr. Junod's arrival his nephew
took him out to the residence of his parents who
were ignorant of the result of the correspondence
and Introduced him as sewi4g machine agent
that wished to purchase a horse, Old Mr.. Isler
had horse brought out and while he was ex.
patialiug upon the animals good qualities, Isler,
ir. could scarcely contain himself and when his
mother asked him If the stranger was going to
stop for dinner and his father asked If the sran.
ger was not his mothers brother, then the bubble
0urted, and such a crying and lauEhing, hand
shaking and embracing, after a 30 years separa.
tiOn, cannot be described upon paper, Mr.. Junod
returned home on Friday last well pleased with
his visit 10 his sister and family and so favorably
impressed with Stark county and It's inhabitants
that he has about made up his mind to remove
here. He appears to be a genial, energetic gentle
man and would no doubt be welcomed to this
county as a resident citizen.
