There Is not much news. The farmers
and people generally are taking the bsne-
ct Of the unusually good sleighing. Bust
ness Is fair. Factories all at work Out
door work among mechanics there Is none
The health Of the community Is good:
Nathan Potts, for many years an Ohio
river pilot, died on Friday last,
Mrs. Sarah Russell, widow OF James kus'
sell, and mother OF George w. Russell, .
prominent teacher Of this place, died on
Saturday,
Captain Thomas White, who was seri'
ously hurt by fall on the sidewalk sever
al weeks since, is slowly recovering.
Mrs. Warren HOLSTER, OF Bridgeport.
o., Is visiting Rev. D. N. Hellister,
1t Is quite likely that the temperance
campaign will open up in q very short
time. Temperance people are very
anxious that the prohibitoEy amendment
to the constitution will pass both houses
OF the Legislature that they may have an
opportunity OF helping to abolish the
LIQUOR traffic. There are more voters in
Brooke county in favor OF prohibiting the
manufacture and sale oil intoxicating
LIQUORS than some people imagine.
It Is Iumored that there are quite o
number Of applicants for the Wellsburg
postoftice. The present incumbent gives
satisfaction, It Is believed, to the majority,
II the present thaW should wind up with
rain the citizens Of the lower part OF the
burg will have reasons to fear an overflow,

Curiosities of Literature.

The following editorial from the
Chicago Times will strike the reader as
rather curious. 1t starts in with ser
mon to European newspapers on their
ignorance of American affairs; as the
reader reaches the bottom, where 1t an
nounces "Jo" Lane as being still IN
the land of the living, the fun comes IN
Joe Lane died in Oregon in April last ;
European newspapers are sometimes
criticised with abusive severity by pre-
tentious American editors, on account oil
their display of ignorance Of American
politics and politicians, history, geoera-
phy, etc. For much of European igno-
rance of American concerns, even among
the educated classes, there IS, as all fair
minded people understand. plausible e1-
cuse. But the European editor who
should display even greater ignorance OF
the public affairs and public men in his
own country would be awarded the
highest prize for being the greatest
blockhead that ever escaped from his own
place
What, then. ought to be said of con-
ceited and pretentious American print,
even in Chicago, where there Is no lack
ing of public school facilities, which
gravely informs its little circle OF aston
ished readers that the late Henry )
Lane, in 1860, ran on the confederate
democrat ticket for vice-president, John
C. Breckenridge being the presidential
nominee T. And, further: "Of the
eight men who were then placed In eIceP-
tional prominence by the appalling char
acter Of events Immediately subsequent
Henry s. Lane is the seventh to go to his
grave. Would it be unjust to say that
such publication is vehicle OF such
profound and peculiar ignorance as nc
other fairly enlightened community pos
sesses? At all events, there Is reason to
say the statement would be true.
There have been three rather conspicu,
ous American politicians by the name Of
Lane-"J jim" Lane, "Joe" Lane, and
Henry S. Lane. The first made himself
notable by his intense abolition sentI-
ments and his Leadership on the anti
slavery side IN the famous "border ruf-
fan war" in Kansas He was a senator
from Kansas from 1861 to the time Of his
death. in March, 1865. Tie second was
appointed (fpom Indiana) BY President
Buchanan to the governorship OF Oregon;
in 1859 he entered the senate from Ore
gon, and served until March, 1861 In
1860 he was nominated by the secession
party at Charleston for vice-pres,dent
He is still living in Oregon The third
