ties OF potatoes are abundant In some yicini
tics, and recently he has been at several
points where they were retailing at sixty
cents bushel. lie thinks the farm OF VIM
Stewart, valued patron OF this paper who
lives ut Long Reach, Monroe county, Ohio
Is one OF the finest on the river 1t consist.
OF about six hundred acres, two hundred and
| fifty aereSOi which are beau iful bottom land
and II Is all In fine state OF cultivation. All

fully abreast OF the times.
THERE Is still an effort being made 70 pro-
vide for q high pressure water service In the
CltyaS 10 shown by the following resolution In
troduCed by Mr.. Kimberly into the Second
Branch last evening: What the Superintcnd
ent OF tho City Prison be and he Is hereby or
dered to have the Superintendent OF the Chain
excavation for high water reservoir, said ex
cavation to DO made on the hill above the pres
ent reservoir OF the city at such place as may
be laid out by the Committee on Water
Works" lis idea Is this; Only about one
months work remains In the quarry on the
hill and the resolution would aim to work
the men the remainder Of the winter, which
promises TO be an open one, OxcaVating
Then In the spring, should the city choose
retaining, walls could DO put In and thus
another basin formed. The paper was re,
iGrred 10 the Committee OH Water Works fol
report.
ANOTHER attempted highway robbery Is re-
ported. The would be garroters are not posi-
lively known, but all the circumstances be-
ing taken into consideration, II would not be
difficult undertaking TO conjecture who the
Williams are. The man who so narrowly es'
capped being the victim OF the operators was a
leather dealer from Steubenvllle, named
James Lawrence, who had came down here
to lay in stock. About o clock yesterday
morning he was walking near the north end
OF the Second ward market, when he was
seized by two stout men. lie struggled de.
terminedly, and one OF them struck him,
knocking him down. Though somewhat
dazed by tho blow, be at once recovered hls
feet and attacked the roughS, at the same
time raising such an cutlery that they became
alarmed and took 10 their heels. lie had q
good chance 10 inspect both, and is confident
he would recognize them II lie saw them again
Similar occurrences 10 this have been I'm.
pleasantly frequent Of late, and II would be d
good idea for some ono 10 shoot one OF the
oafers who prowl about the streets at night
looking for promising subjects for such q
crime.
