New York is now making "best clover

( When a public business meeting is
called in Eaton, a few of our brilliant or
ators ought to go to the Hall before the

tended to before one-half the audience is
"bored'' out of the room.
A fashionable young woman of Gales
burg, H., has undertaken alone to re-
form the men of that town. She enters

There viii be a call issued next week

Do the Taxpayers of the Corporation
of Eaton want $500 of their money put
into a fire-alarm bell? Is not the one
there now sufficient for all practical pur-

the town is more sorely in need of now.
We hear of a number of monied men
in the neighborhood of Camden and
Winchester, who willinvest in Eaton and

ASTRONOMERS predict a collision of a
comet with the sun during the coming
summer, which will possibly increase the
heat sufficiently to utterly destroy all
vegetable and animal life on the earth.
Some of the large eastern papers are
printing columns upon the subject. We
want to sell out and move.
When the Evansville and Dayton rail
way is finished through here to Dayton,
we are in favor of inviting all the sur
rounding inhabitants off the line to come
to the County seat and take ride on it
at the expense of our Corporation. Bet
ter do that than waste our money on a
fire-beH, when we have one.
There viii be a fox drive out ON the
Fourmile valley next Saturday, to cen
ter on Joseph Fleisch's farm, and we say
to our readers that if it is a good day for
foxes, go out and see the fun. These
Fourmilers are the liveliest fellows in
Preble county TO do anything. We know
'em, and you can bet on having fun ii
the day proves good.

There viii be another railroad meeting
in the Opera House this Thursday eve
ming. Let there be a turnout of the en-,
tire population or drop the enterprise.
If the business men and capitalists Of
Eaton won't take an interest in the ad.
vancement of the town; the whole thing
may just as well wind up and lumber be
engaged to enclose our village.
