We learn from the Akron Beacon of
Saturday that Mr.. Louis J. Barber. re-
siding at 2l0 Sumner street, tile roof
er in the employ of J. G. Ewart & Co.,
met with a fatal accident at about
IL: l5 O'Clock a. m. that day. While
engaged in roofing a coal shed at the
tile works, he fell from the roof, a dis
tance of about six feet, striking the
ground on his head, breaking his neck
aud expiring in very few moments.
A bad cut was made over his right eye
and an ugly cash ON the top of his
head. Several persons went to his
assistance as soon as he fell and asked
if he was hurt. He signified that he
was by nodding his head, and then
hreathed his last. The deceased was
brother of Mr.. Horace Barber, who re-
sides about two miles northwest of this
village. He was so years of age and
leaves wife and daughter.

AS the malarial season is approach
ing, we give the following remedy for
chills, although we hope none of our
paying subscribers will have them.
The remedy is recommended as pre-
ventive: Five cents worth of cream
of tartar, one teaspoonful of ground
cloves, mix we'll together in molasses.
Dose-one teaspoonful three times a
day.
An exchangesays: "It is certainly
very funny to hear man bowling
about patronizing home industries,
when he uses rubber stamp to make
the most horrible daubs of letter heads
and cards with which nice white paper
is spoiled, or patronize some cheap
ametuer who does him botch job fol
trifie above nothing. Many mems
ideas of patronizlng home industries
are for everybody else to do it."

Alexander McNabb, an old and re-
spected citizen, living in the west part
of Deerfield, committed suicide by
cutting his throat with razor last
Friday forenoon. He was from seven
ty to seventy-five years of age. For
about two years he had been great
sufferer from rheumatism, which final
ly drove him to desperation and in
duced him thus to put an end to his
earthly troubles.

MANTUA STATION.

COTTeSpOIltteIlce
A car load of children from the
Tabernacle Sunday School, in Cleve-
land, numbering about 80, with their
teachers, spent the time from last
Wednesday until Saturday at and near
Mantua Corners. The occasion was
one of rare enjoyment to the little
ones, as they froliced about, rambling
everywhere, among the green fields
and woods, gathering flowers, and
breathing the fresh and healthy at
mosphere of a country life. Their en-
joyment was only interrupted by one
cloud of sadness, the sickness of one
of their number, a little girl of eight
years, resulting in her death on Fri
day, in spite of the best medical skill
and the most tender care. Saturday
the little form was laid away to a peace
full and final rest in the Cemetery at
the Center, and the School returned to
Cleveland on the evening train, hav-
ing learned many lessons, both in joy
and sorrow, which lies before them in
their future lives.
The young ladies of the R. r. c., at
the Station, gave an entertainment at
Bowen's s Hall on Wednesday evening
of last week, which was well patron
lied. The object of this organization
is very laudable and praiseworthy
one, it being the establishment of a
Reading Room, and thus to furnish a
better place for the citizens to spend
their leisure time than in the saloon or
the billiard room. Quite a fund has
already been raised, and the citizens
would all do well to assist in such q
worthy object.
On Sunday the Spiritualists held
their usual Annual Meeting in Atwa.
ter's Grove. A larger attendance than
usual was present, who listened with
interest to the speakers, Mr.. and Mrs
Hudson Tuttle. Resolutions of respect

tosh, a veteran Spiritualist, were pre-
sented by E. P. Brainerd and brief re
marks by d. NJ. King. Adjourned tt
meet again in the same place in ont
year.

GARRETTSvILLE.

Correspondence.
| The ladies and many veters of Gar
rettsville have recently taken into
perance work. The Scott law grants
certain powers of regulating, restrain
ing and prohibiting ale, beer and por-
ter houses and places of habitual resort
for tippling and intemperance. Last
Wednesday evening our Council held
| its regular session for the transaction
of business. After the transaction of
| the regular routine business. Mr.. Nor
ris, Superintendent of our schools, pre-
sented petition on behalf of the
ladies and large number of voters,
asking for an ordinance to prohibit
ale, beer or porter houses and places of
habitual resort for tippling and intem-
perance. He used many forcible and
well timed remarks in his presenta-
ton. The petition was taken into
consideration by the Council, and by
a unanimous vote, the Solicitor was
instructed to prepare an ordinance to
be presented at the next regular session
of the Council. 1t looks at present as
if our village would soon wheel into
line with others throughout the State
in curbing the traffic.
f.. G.. Smith Esq, is erecting new
residence on State street, which will
be one of the best in town when COM
pleted. Mr.. Smith is very popular
gentleman in this part of the county.
His genial conduct makes everyone
| feel at home when with him.
A correspondent of the PRESS, under
date of July 30th, from Ravenna, seems
to be determined to play some peculiar
pranks with language and figures, and
by his own demonstration shows that
he either thinks one thing and writes
another or desires by some subterfuge
or " legerdemain,' as he calls it, to
make things appear not what they are.
He said in his article to the Cleveland
Leader, that Mr.. Woodwork ran be-
hind his ticket about 600 votes, and
still seeks to grge the same fact in his
communication to the PRESS. Mr..
Foster, candidate for Governor in 1881
was at the head of the Republican
ticket. Mr.. Woodworth was candi-
date for representative to the State
legislature on the same ticket. The
strength of the ticket should be figured
by the number of votes which the head
of the ticket received, which was 1855,
in Portage county, at that election.
| Mr.. Woodwork received 1854 votes.
He ran behind Mr., Foster at that elec-
ton 2Sl votes, or in other words, so
many votes behind his ticket. The
gentleman did not state, in his article
to the Leader, that Mr.. Woodworth's
majority was 600 less than the MAORI
ty of the head of the ticket. If this
newspaper contributor will kindly
call things by their right names he
will not mislead newspaper CORES
pondents as to his actual meaning, and
the reading public will not be led into
error by such statements. Mr.. Wood
worth's popularity was, as shown by
the report, of the Secretary of State,
just 28l votes less than that of Mr..
Foster. IAGO.

A Sad Accident.

On Wednesday, the LIST inst, George
Jennings, lad of eleven years, living
with his mother on the old Heriff
place, in the northwest part of Roots
town, had his left foot cut off above the
ankle by a moving machine. The
lad, following behind the machine,
accidentally stepped over the cutter
bar, when his foot was caught between
the guards and cut entirely off, not a
fiber being left to connect it with the
leg. The bone was afterwards ampu
tated farther up, and at last reports he
was doing well. The little fellow stood
the calamity bravely.
