On Sunday. Oct. 10th, after holding services in
the Ev. Lutheran Church. at New Baltimore, we
proceeded to the home of Father John Boston, at
the east end Of the village to participate in the
commemoratlon Of the 10th anniversary OF his
birth. He rode home from church with us and
when we came In front of the house, and he saw
the yard filed with carriages and people all
around he said "Why, what is this? l believe
they have meeting here" When alghted from
the carriage, he was at once conducted in to the
room where large new Cane-seated armed rock
ing chair awaited him, upon which he was seated
and new hat placed upon his head; all of which
took him completely by SURPRISE as he was not
expecting any thing OF the kind; and he was so
filed with emotion that he could scarcely speak,
and the tears could be seen flowing down his fur.

The whole affair was planned and carried into
execution by his estimable companion, and
though Mother Boston has attained the age OF

WATER WORKS TALK.

Since the question OF where and how Canton
can obtain pure and adequate water supply has
been receiving the attention of the city Council,
the opinion OF Mr. Paul Field Of the Water Works
trustees may be OF interest In recent con versa
ton with that gentleman he said that the best
authorities on hydraulic engineering were op.
posed to depending on wells for the water supply
OF a city and that untainted water from flowing
streams was the best thing for city use In Mr..
Fields estimation the sprankle dam should be
removed and the race enlarged to about twice It's
present size and to about four times Its capacity
Just above the wheel house In the present state
of affairs spraukles dam is a shallow pond be-
ing simply sheet Of water spread out over low
marshy land and breeding place for weeds and
the like, which rot In the water and are preVa-
lent source OF malaria II as he suggests the race
was increased to about four times It's size at the
wheel house, water could be drawn from clean,
deep reservoir, so to speak, untainted with de-
Caying vegetation and the action Of the sun. In
case Of fire also the water supply would be much
more reliable, as at present only comparatively
small quantity Of the water In Sprankles dam is
obtainable because the fall from the head Of the
dam TO the wheel house is not sufficiently great
This should also be remedied. In regard to the
Akron water works, Mr.. Field said that in his
judgment the Akron folks were mistaken about
obtaining their water from subterranean wells
and that these underground streams were sup
piled from the small lakes surrounding that city

A Democratic Sheriff Shot and Killed by Re
publlCan-Much Political Excitement.
Cincinnati, Ohio, Oct. 1O.-The political excite.
ment in Indiana has become intense, and cul
minated yesterday In two serious ARRAYS, one at
shelbyville and one at Evansville. II is difficult
to get at the real facts as so much political bias
exists that the stories Of the occurrences differ
widely. In shelbyville the Republicans and
Greenbackers were both holding meetings, the
former addressed by Gen. Benz, Harrison and the
latter by Dr. De La Matyr. In the afternoon a
number of fights took place In saloons between
Republicans and Democrats. At one Of them
Sheriff McCOrkle inlerfered, and was leading
away Ed. Kennedy a young man who was a
principal in one OF the fights, when q second dis
turbance arose. in which several shots were fred,
Sheriff McCorkle was shot in the breast, and died
to day. Kennedy was accused Of firing the fatal
shot. McCOrkle being Democrat and Kennedy
Republican, the most bitter feeling is aroused
and parties are out seeking the latter He will
doubtless be lynched If found. Deputy Sheriff
Lee was badly bruised in the course Of the
affray

Oscar Shorter, q colOred man, had a shooting

PERPETUATE GERMAN.

AT the regular monthly meeting Of the German
Pioneer Society, last Friday evening, committee
consisting OF Judge seaphim Meyer, Rev. Peter
Herbruck, John Raeber, Joseph A. Hemann and
John Shilling was appointed to inquire into and
report the cause that so many children OF Ger.
man parentage neglect their mother tongue 30
much as to fail to learn how to speak 1t much
less read and write 1t. A glance at the school
statistics will show this to be true Out OF 2l8l
scholars attending the Canton Union schools but
14l study German, viz: 3S In the High School, 62
in the East German school and Al In the South
German school. This Is not at all attributable to
the school management as both the Board Of Ed
ucation and the School Superintendent have ex.
pressed their willingness to provide instructors
and rooms for scholars wishing to study German
as fast ss application Is made. The fault 1t seems
lies not only with the parents but the children
Themselves. II is the intention OF the society to
agltate this matter, so thatour German population
may become aroused to the importance of this
matter and the children realize that 1t is no dis.
grace but decided accomplishment to thorough
ly comprehend both the German and English
languages.

THOUSANDS of Republicans in the 10th
Congressional (his own) district pro-
nounced Garfield guilty in 1874, 1876 and
1878 and refused to vote for him. They
said in their address four years age:
Forgetting his duty to his country and
his constituents, in his haste to serve his
nd.holding masters, ON the 18th Of
July, 1875, he committed himself to the
defense of that great fraud upon the peo-
pie, the demonetization Of the silver
dollar, and denounced it's restoration as

CLERKS in the Departments at Wash
ington were granted one months leaye
of absence, with full pay, to go home and
vote in Indiana and Ohio-provided they
voted the Republican ticket. This was
in addition to the usual summer vacation
of two weeks allowed the clerks with
full pay. If the clerks can be spared
from their duties for one twelfth their
time to engage in poll ical work for
the Republican party, it seems to us in
the nature of hint to the Democrats in
Congress to cut down the wages of the
clerical force one.twelfth. And it is one
they will be likely to act on at the next
session.

"THE CANTON REPUBLICAN,,

"THE CANTON Republican,
Is the title Of a new Republican paper,
the first number Of which appeared ON
Thursday, "R. A. Cassiday editor and
proprietor" The sheet is an eight coll
umn folio, and presents, geographically,
a fair appearance. Mr.. CaesIday is gen.
tleman of enterprise, and a practical
printer. We observe he shows his De-
Golyer proClivities by hoisting Garfield
and Arthur, and publishing what Wade
Hampton did not utter at Staunton.
We have long known there we're many
Republicans of Canton, and throughout
the county, disgusted with the F. F. c.

the result of this dissatisfaction.

To pay the rebel debt, the Southern

the emanCipated slaves, tax of S. 900

necessary. Every Republican voter is
