Electric Light.

The committee on Electric Light,
appointed a short time ago, to ascer-
tain cost, practicability, &C., OF the
electric light, met at. the Standard
Office on Monday morning. All the
members of the committee l..
Chapman, E. w. Mitchell, John L..
Davies and D. Mackley were present:
The committee have received large
amount Of valuable and reliable in
formation. which will be condensed
into report, which will be ready for
publication next week.
We will only now say that the
committee have received information
which renders it certain that light
Of eight candle power can be put into
a room at cost Of one half the cost
Of the cheapest oil lamp, and then the
capitalist who puts in the light can
realize at least ten per cent on the
capital invested.
This ought to settle it.

The Waverly Watchman rises to
remark that the Commissioners Of
Jackson County get pretty good pay,
but that Jackson County has no pub
lie improvements, no turnpikes--and
so on. ~
Now, that is about as near wisdom
and truth as the average Bottomite
ever gets. Pike County has turn
pike or two-and distillery. Only
this, and nothing more. Jackson
County has mud roads, yet the people
do more business over them, and with
less grumbling, than the ''Pikes" do
over their turnpikes. Jackson County
has bigger towns, more business, and
better people than Pike-for we give
a big Republican majority over here.
A Pike County Democrat must
have something to ''cuss," therefore
they build turnpikes, and quarrel
about them. The Jackson County
Democrats are a good quiet sort OF
fellows, attend to their own business,
come to town over the mud roads, pay
their taxes, go home over the mud roads,
and have, along with their Republican
neighbors, money in the Treasury
Now, we might spend all our money
run in debt few hundreds Of thou
sands Of dollars-and be as benighteC
as Pike County. But we prefer tt
progress in such way that we shal
not be progressing towards bankrupt
cy and ruin. If Bro. Jones will COM
over and have a talk with our tax
payers, he will find that they are no
fretting their lives away about turn
pixies. lie the men who would be call
ed upon to foot the bills want turn
pixies, they will make it manifest t.
the Commissioners, and if those VIII
would not be financially interested il
the matter cannot travel on the mu
roads, let them stake to the woods.
One thing is clear-when the peopl
of Jackson County want turnpike
they will build them.

The Tyrannical Man.

If there be one creature, more than
another, who renders himself con-
temptible in the social world. it is the
tyrannical man. He generally begins
the displays Of his characteristic fail
ing early in life, by abusing his
mother, or his sisters. These being
his superiors, Of course allow him to
do as pleases him best, and he is not
long in acquiring an air Of authority
"a feeling that he has only to COM
mand, and be obeyed.
If this creature is SO fortunate as to
get married, he has ample opportuni-
ties to shine out as tyrant, cheap
tyrant, a contemplate tyrant. Is
there prayer-meeting? "The place
for women is at homer' Is there a
social party? "Women should not
neglect their homes and be gadding
about at night!' Is there dying
friend? sits poor story they can't
send for somebody else-my wife's
constantly goingr' Does faithful
wife tell the tyrannical husband of a
dinner party, or concert? ''Well,
you're not going, anyhow" is the
reply.
The whole aim of the tyrannical
husband seems to be to make the ex-
istence of the faithful wife unendura-
BILE. If he is in the habit Of getting
drunk occasionally, the increased ty-
ranny resulting from his befuddled
condition adds largely to his enjoy
ment. He is always cowardly, and if
he can succeed, by raging like a wild
beast, or displaying deadly weapons,
in frightening, and completely break
ing the spirit Of the woman who has
been committed to his care and pro-
lection, he feels, by this fact, that he
is great man.
The tyrannical husband is fraud;
a man who does not possess qualities
of mind and heart that impel him to
cherish and protect his wife, and to do
all within his power to make her life
pleasant and happy, has no business
with wife. A tyrant is always,
everywhere, contemplate creature,
and himself slave to Satanic mas
ter. He lives in the social world
much as the thistle and thorn in the
vegetable world-the only apparent
object of creation being to wound the
feelings of some of Gods creatures.
And who can tell but the tyrannical
men, like the thistle and thorn, will
be raked in, on that great day-and

Sundays W0lk.

The Cincinnati Commercial is once
more happy. 1t is as earnest as ever
in favor of drunkenness, with all its
consequences. In Mondays issue we
noticed the record Of seven murders
committed on Sunday, and there might
have been others that we overlooked
First-At Uniontown, Pepnsylva-
MIA, Capt. A. C. Mutt, Cashier of the
State Treasury, was shot and killed
by N. L. Dukes, lawyer, and member
elect Of the State Legislature. The
murdered man leaves a wife and seven
children.
Second-In Dayton, man named
Babbington was standing on the cor
ner Of the streets, quietly, when two
drunk men came up, and one Of them
said: ''Do you know who I am; my
name is O'Connell, and l can lick hell
out of you." Babbington turned to
go away, when one Of the men rushed
upon him, and stabbed him in the back
three times with a long knife. He
will die.
Third-At Peoria, ILL.,, Charles
Smith stabbed Frank Anderson to the
heart, killing him instantly.
Fourth-In Columbus, a drunken
loafer named Cooney Seibel wanted
David Hildenbrand to. treat him at a
doggery, and when he refused Seibel
followed him out, and stabbed him
twice in the face. He will die.
Fifth-At Peru, ILL.,, Patsy Donnelly
entered saloon and shot three times,
killing Michael McDermott. When
he went out he met an officer and shot
at him, and then the officer shot and
killed the murderer.
Sixth-At Lafayette, Indiana, John
Lenihan, a saloon keeper, shot and
killed Charles Rowe, in his, Neni-
han's) doggery.
The Commercial was becoming
rather respondent, as week before last
there had not been single murder in
Cincinnati, and only two drunken
Dutchmen had committed suicide;
but now it has column of fine type
giving an account of a good, old
fashioned Cincinnati drunken murder
on Sunday. Two drunken men, James
Chumley and Thomas Lamb got into
a silly quarrel about nothing, while
eating their supper, when Chumley
shot Lamb and killed him, the wife
Of the murdered man screaming for
aid.
This is only the record Of the mur-
ders committed on one Sunday, col
lected from only one paper.
Hurrah for personal liberty!

JOHN HALLEr, resident Of Scioto
Township, Jackson county, was
thrown from load Of hay in jackson
last week and instantly killed, the fall
breaking his neck.-McArthur En-

Well, that is about as near the
truth as Democratic editor ever per-
mits himself to get. There wasn't
any man thrown from a load of hay
in Jackson, and we believe there was
never man Of that name living in
Scioto township.

LOUIS DAUBER.

Louis Dauber was born in Scioto
County, Ohio, March 6, 1851, and died
December IA, 1882, aged 81 years, 9
months, 8 days.
He was confirmed in the Evangel-
ical Lutheran Church, in his youth,
remaining in that Church until his
removal to Jackson, Ohio, when he
joined the Presbyterian Church, by
certificate. In this Church he re-
manned in fellowship until death.
His death was by accident; in a
moment he was hurled into eternity.
The last step he took on the treacher-
GUS scaffold landed him on the shores
of "the world to come" Death came
upon him while he was in the line of
duty; endeavoring to support his lit
tie family. May God bless them and
take care Of them

WHISKY and cigars got away wit

WHISKY and cigars got away with
another victim last week. It occurred
in Columbus this time. An old man
named Charles Heyder went into a
drug store and asked for a drink Of
whisky, and started to go to get it
himself CThis is dodge practiced by
most druggists.) A customer coming
in for a cigar, the druggist went to
wait on him, when Heyder took a
large drink from bottle containing
Fowler's solution of arsenic. The
druggist gave him large dose cf tar
tar emitic, and started for a doctor.
When he and the doctor returned
Heyder had gone. In the afternoon
he was found in another saloon, and
was then dying.

Sarah J. Howe VS.. Martin Howe.
This was petition for divorce, charg-
ing adultery and extreme cruelty.
There were several witnesses. The
evidence, in substance, showed that
Howe very frequently came to Jack
son, and generally went home drunk,
or half drunk, as his wife testified.
He struck her on two occasions, and
very often threatened her life. She
had little homestead, her share of
her fathers estate. He tried to per-
suade her, and to compel her to sell
it. He did get her to borrow $50, and
give mortgage on her property to
secure it, when he took the money
and spent it. He also communicated
to her foul disease, and various 9TH
er wrongs.
The Judge, in deciding the case,
said in all his experience Of twenty
five years, as attorney and as Judge,
he had never met with SO aggravated a
case, and he would grant the divorce,
and give the custody of the four chill
dren to the petitioner.

THE fact is the elections this fall
have been magnificent Republican
victories magnificent in their effects
and unprecedented as magnificent.
We clipped the above from paper
claiming to be Republican. We find
similar idiocy in many Of our pretend
ed Republican exchanges. The query
naturally arises, is man who can
write such nonsense an idiot or a
lunatic, knave or fool. Doubtless
all four combined.

MISS JENNIE MALONEY.

Miss Jennie Maloney was born No
vember Is, 1858, and died December
18, 1882.
She was converted in her 18th year,
Joined the M. E. Church on probation
January 10, 1875, under the ministry
Of Rev. w. T. Harvey, was received
into full membership July Both Of
the same year, and remained devot-
ed, earnest Christian until death. She
was faithful follower Of the Savior,
always to be found in her place, per-
forming her every Christian duty.
Duty was to her no task, for the 'love
Of Christ constraining" her, made all
Christian work privilege. She had
deep, rich experience Of Christ's saw
ing power, which ministered to her
own comfort and to the encourage
ment Of others. Many who have been
permitted to visit her, during her long
and severe affection, have been en-
couraged in their efforts to live a
Christian life, by her messages of tri-
ump, and her assurances of readiness
to die.
She died IN her young Womanhood.
1t is hard for young people to give up
their hopes and plans for life. But
Christ was the center Of all her plans.
And while she held on to her Savior
for every earthly hope that she was
called to lay aside, Christ opened up
to her some brighter, better, heaven
lier reality.
The bereaved ones in their sorrow,
are commended to her Savior for help
and comfort.
Our sister Jennie had won the ad-
miration and love Of the community,
by the fact that her life had in it so
much Of the spirit Of the Divine Mas
ter. May the memory of such beau
tiful Christian life be an inspiration
and benediction to the young people
of our town and Of our churches, and
may they consecrate their early man
hood and womanhood to Christ, as the
only sure way to make their lives
sublime" W. D. CHERINGToN.

Lo! hear a message falling,
Hear it echo o'er and o'er,
AS of voices sweetly calling
Calling from distant shore.
Oft hear that call repeating
In the dark and silent night;
'Tis the voice of Faith, entreating
Some glad soul to take its flight
Take its flight away from sorrow
That Expresses it to-day,
To that home where, on tomorrow,
1t shall greet eternal day.
Not in vain is all its pleading
Not in vain it calls US on;
One more soul that call is needing,
And we mourn sister gone.
Gone across the mighty river,
To inherit joys divine;
There, with holy light, forever
VIII that gentle spirit shine.
Though despondent, broken hearted,
We who finger on this side
Hear the blessed word impaired:
"Die as pure as Jennie died"
