DEATHS.

In our last issue we noted the
fact of our fellow townsman, Mr.. O.
Branch, being called to visit a sick
brother in Pomeroy, O. After Mr..
Branch's return home, he was add
uised by telegram of his brothers
death. We copy the following
from the Meiggs Co. Telegraph:
DEATH OF AN OLD CITIZEN
Hosmer Branch, Esq, for nearly
forty years resident of Pomeroy,
died at his residence on Mulberry
street on Monday, after an illness of
about two weeks, in the Gath year
of his age. Mr. Branch, during his
lifetime, held number of impor-
tant public trusts, the duties of
which he invariably discharged
with intelligence and fidelity.
Among the offices he held were
those of Postmaster, Mayor, Justice
of the Peace, etc. He was for quite
number of years member Of the
Pomeroy School Board, and it is
not too much to say of him in that
capacity, that he was one of the
most useful men in our midst.
Likewise as Land Appraiser, he
was man of such rare good judg-
ment that the entire public seemed
to repose the utmost confidence in
his conclusions.

THE CALVARY CHURCH MEETINGS.
PARKERsBURG.-The meetings at
the Calvary Presbyterian Church.
conducted by DIR. H. H. Wells, of
Ohio, with the Pastor, DIR. J. Garland
Hammer, in progress last week, are
being continued, every morning
and evening this week, with in
creasing interest from day to day.
The discussions by the eminent
preacher, are especially clear, logic
al and practical, and have made
marked impression among The in
telligent, thinking people OF our
city The sermon of Sunday even
ing last, was in answer to the great
question-"How may | become a
Christian" and we certainly never
listened to a clearer, palmer or
more satisfactory exposition of the
plan Of salvation and experiences of
a change of heart.
The speaker divided the ex-
periences of a sinner in be-
coming Christian into six
distinct steps which he must
take successfully, and without
which, he assured his hearers, no
one of them could be saved. He
said that all these steps might be
experienced in a very short time,
at one meeting, during one CONVEX
sation, or in a moment Of thought
full decision; or days and weeks, and
years might intervene between
them. But these steps must be Ia
ken.
1. Feel your need of Christ.
2. Be sick Of sin-sick enough to
give it up.
8. Determine to enter at once up
on life of obedience to God; by
His assisting grace.
4. Confess your sins to God anC
pray for pardon in Jesus name.
5. Believe that having come thus
to God, He does receive you anc
pardon you, because He says SO in
His Word.
6. Be converted-turned about il
your life.

Scar Route Discoveries.

Attorney General VacVeagh has been
vigorous and untiring i'm hunting down
the star route ring, and he has more evil
dence than the public is aware of. He
has searched all the records of the de-
partments connected with the star route
ring contracts, and confidential special
agents have been sent to secretly gather
testimony on the line of the expedited
routes. Nothing has been left undOne
that would unearth. the evidence of
fraud. At first the star route ring talked
boldly, under the suppsitiOn that so long
as no member turned states evidence
they were safe. Bets were made here in
Washington that the investigation would
fail. 1t is different now. The men who
shared in the ring are anxious and I'M
easy, and it is predicted that some of
them will leave the country. Attorney
General MacVeagh and Postmaster Gen.
eral James are determined to prosecute
the ring, and they have evidence enough
to procure indictments against numer-
Gus parties. The postmaster general
has copies of DOrsey's correspondence
with his agents, who procured petitions
for the star routes, and some original
letters and documents throwing light
on the methods employed in Arkansas
and the southwest have been obtained.
The dispositions of some persons who
helped prepare the way for the expedited
rOnteS have been procured also.
