WE mentioned last week that the safe

WE mentioned last week that the safe
in the store of Parry, Warren & Co., at
Oak Hill, Portland), had been broken
open, and a hundred dollars in silver
stolen. The safe was cut open with an
ore mattock or pick. Two suspicious
looking men had been seen about Port
land the day before the robbery. A de-
scription was sent to Marshal Bill Owens,
but the description was so indefinite that
it did not aid him much. He heard of
two such men in Jackson, who had gone
to Coalton. He pursued them there and
found them, but the description did not
warrant him in making the arrest. He
came back to Jackson and telegraphed to
Portland and a man came up and went
with Owens to Hamden, where they
again heard of them. They got Lew Mil
ler to go with them to Macarthur Station,
where the new Gallipolis road crosses the
M. & G. r. r. There Owens saw one of
the chaps, standing between the trains.
Owens nabbed his man, who says his
name is John McCulloch, and his partner,
who escaped, is one Charles Neal. They
are both Irishmen. Forty dollars of the
stolen silver was found with the thief,
tied up in handkerchief. A counter
felt quarter of dollar was found, which
was identified as part of the stolen prop
erty.
McCulloch was taken to Portland on
Thursday morning for preliminary ex-
but he waived an examina-
tion and was brought up on the ten
o'clock train and committed to Jail.

The Fox and the Bull!

There was once very hungry fox, who started out
to live by his wits. This fox very great thief
and persistent in stealing his neighbors goods
that he at last socially ostraczed by his neigh
bors Becoming desperate this sneaking fox resolved
that the world owed him a living, and he would have
it. So he resolved to pounce upon sustenance when
ever and wherever he could find it, regardless Of hon.
esty or decency.
1t chanced that, while walking along through field,
one day, in an unusually hungry condition. this fox
espied large bull in the field. This bull had long
tail, which the hungry fox soon observed was swing
ing loosely. The covetous fox Immediately jumped
at the conclusion that the tail going to drop off,
and he then and there resolved to follow the bull until
the tail dropped, seize 1t, and make a meal of
The poor deluded and starved fox started upon his
weary tramp around and around the field, in the
of the BULL all the while abusing and slandering the
bull for holding onto his The bull, fattened by
his excellent PASTURE continued his lively travels
about the heid until at last the poor fox sank down
in rage, anger, disappointment and starvation and
died-whie the bull switched his tail and cavorted in

GEORGE W. RICE was in Cincinnati all

both in town and country, to call and
see his goods. No charge for showing
goods.
Now we are not in the habit of asking
the people to do that which we are not
willing to do ourself, and when we ask
people to trade with Rice we wish to say
that for the past four or five years we
have paid him from 600 to $500 per year
for goods.

place any kind of sliding motion machine,
the singer included, in some place to be
run by steam power with the New No. s.,
at the rate of 1900 stitches per minute.
If the New No. s fails to wear out two of
the others of any kind mentioned, 1 will

$50 NEAR, AND YET SO FARv

A chicken perched in a barn-yard coop,
A rascal lay ON the ground,
Filled with his evil purpose to scoop
That chicken so fat and rennd.
The farmer at last retired within
His dwelling TO seek his rest
Beast, bird and fowl had long ceased their din
The earth in darkness was dressed.
The rascal crept up, and reached for that fowl,
Boldly, yet trembling with fear
Suddenly arose terrible howl,
From a bull dog close in his rear.
Then the rascal flew, in his sudden fright
Clean over the barn-yard fence;
On, through the fields, and out Of sight,
With strides that were simply immense.
'That rooster is mine ~ came back on the wind
In accents coarse and rough;
Then, with nervous glance behind
"But don't want him-HEs ToUGHw
How many such rascals the world contains!
They are constantly roaming about;
They have neither standing, honor nor brains,
Yet they manage 20 live without.

Grateful Women.

None receive so much benefit, and none
are SO profoundly grateful and show such
an interest in recommending Hop Bitters
as women. 1t is the only remedy pecu-
liarly adapted to the many ills the sex is
almost universally subject to. Chills and
fever, indigestion and deranged liver, con-
slant or periodical sick headaches, weak
ness in the back or kidneys, pain in the
shoulders and different parts of the body,
feeling of lassitude and dependency, are
all readily removed by these Bitters.-
