Gillet's Double Extracts are three to five
times as strong as most others, and are
finer. richer, and more delicious, and that
Gillet's Cream Tartar Baking Powder is
healthy, nutritious and economical. They
have stood the test for over fifteen years.
We heartily recommend them to our

GhIE1E
New YoRK, Noy. Sister Gertrude
Verna. of St. John tho Baptist's Home
charitable institution of the Protestant
Episcopal Church ID East 18th street, was
shot and seriously wounded by Thomas
Stanton, an insane man, wounding her
twice in the right thigh. once in the ancIe
and once in the left hand. She fell uncon
sclous into the arms Of other sisters just as
they opened the door, and but for their
timely appearance Stanton would probably
have killed her on the spot. TIE physi
cian who dressed tho wounds pronounced
them serious. but not necessarily fatal.
She said the man WAS a total stranger to
her. Stanton, when arrested said he had
been bewitched by some one, and thought
that Sister Gertrude was the person, who
had bewitched him, but said he did not
know her.

Railroad Wreck.

Train No. 5 which left Cleveland at
7 20 P. NJ. Friday evening was wrecked
by a misplaced switch short distance
from Wellington Station, and the tracks
were blocked SO that no trains passed that
point till 20 next morning; when the
delayed passengers OF the o O'Clock train
of the evening before, who had been
obliged to seek hotels and boarding
houses or lodge on the train, were sent
forward twelve and n half hours behind
time. Other trains were held at points
up and down the road until the tracks
were clear. The telegraph operators
were kept busy most of the night trans
mitting messages to expectant families,
and reporte, from the Wooster hang
ing sent a two column description to
the Cleveland Herald by telegraph from
this office; which news cost the enter
prising paper $40 for the sending.
No person was hurt, and everyone
seeing the nature of the wreck was
thankful for so fortunate an outcome.
A track was built around the wreck to
ell able trains to pass.

ornhens Club Concert.

The concert given by the Orpheus Club
of Oberlin, at the Congregational Church,
Monday evening, was much too thinly at
tended, owing, probably, to the cold snow
storm which set in soon after noon and
continued through the evening. The en-
tertainment was really enjoyable one,
and the musicians must have felt that the
audience, what there was of it, was SYM
pathetic and appreciative one.
Four male voices, in good harmony and
with excellent articulation, rendered one
or two old songs, and some new ones, in
variety of quartette, duet, and solo. p. c.
Hayden, the first tenor, and j. S. Morse,
the second bass, each sang solos. Fhe
Fisherman" a duet; "Carnovale," beg
gar's song; az Fear no Foe" "Where is
now the Merry Party?" "The Chafers," !"
and ''Good Night, Beloved" were among
the vocal selections. G.. c. Westervelt
played the e fiat cornet and piano. H. E.
Westervelt, the b. Flat cornet player, gave
the charming "Aria from Narbucco," by
Verdi.
clarionets, trombones, piccolo and tuba
played nothing more delightful than the
" Fantasia on Old Songs" in which bright,
familiar airs were woven into tapestry of
intricate and sober harmonies. Mr.. Srp,
whose name is model of brevity if some
what unpronounceable, played, for clario-
net solo, the old Carnival of Venice"
which, in its various guises, never wears
out-which starts of with such n solemn
staaeliness in its swing and turns ont 10 be
rollicking and merry. "Come where my
love lies dreaming" answered every pur-
pose of ship of transport, carrying one to
the isles Of the long ago.
The new music is very fine, but an old
song now and then, with tune familiar and
words that one can understand, comes a
good deal nearer the average heart than
the half interpreted walls and shrieks that
concert goers pay highest for and but
dimly comprehend; and, as our cores.
pondent prophesied last week, those who
patronized the concert of Monday night
enjoyed an old-fashioned feast.

The writer Of "An Ohio Boy Looks at
the Great Prairies," in our last issue, calls to
say that he wrote that the population of
Hoopstown was ,2o0 to /, 400; not 12,O0O to
14,OOo. 1t is a new town, and the smaller
figures represent rapid growth. Also that
there must have been q fearful strain on
those corn cribs, 8 feet wide, IL to Is feet
high and 25 feet long, to hold 10000 bushels
of corn. A few thousand bushels Of corn,
more or less, would make no great difference,
only it might ruin the crib. We plead guilty,
and will try not to do SO any more. The hur-
