county. This is a good job of bulldOZing
on the part of "TOm." He scared one
man who carried the petition to others,
and about four third party Prohibition

Those who have accompanied these ex-

No effort will be spared by him to make
the excursion a thoroughly enjoyable

fact in view when they set the excursion

ing of the Masses.
GALLON, o., Aug. GA large and en-
thusiastic Democratic mass meeting
was held in this city Saturday evening.
Delegations were here from Bucyrus,
CTestline, New Washington, and other
places, and with bands of music and
tOrchlights paTaded the streets this
evening. Great disappointment was ex-
pressed at the absence of the principal
speaker announced to be present, Judge
HOadly, the Democratic standard bearer,
whose sudden and severe illness deferred
him from being present to address the
vast multitude assembled to hear him.
However, General Durbin Ward ap-
peaTed and made marked aud telling
speech, in which he expressed the SEN
timents of the large audience, as was
evinced by the loud applause from his
hearers. Both afternoon and evening
meetings were held on the square,
which was one sea Of humanity. The
Democracy of Crawford county express
ed at this meeting that they were unit
ed and in dead earnest for the success of
the entire Democratic ticket this fall,
and there will not be vote lost, but
many gained for HOadly and the entire
ticket. The enthusiasm Is even greater
than at any previous campaign, which
means that this county is more solid
than ever. If every county In the State
will do One-tenth as we'll as old Craw-
ford, HOadly's election will be assured
by large majority.

TrellsOn, of the Associated Charities,
visited the premises, a filthy hOVel, and
encountered revolving and sickening
spectacle. The woman lay half nude,
and six large rats were deVOuring the
body. The Vermin had eaten away one
side of her face and both eyes. Two lit
tie children were huddled in the same
room, nearly starved. The husband and
father lay in the same place, grossly in
tOxicated. The body was taken to the
mOrgue where the inquest will be held,
and the children were taken to charit-

no doubt that Mrs. HOlzel was starved
to death, or killed by the rats when too
much weakened by priVatiOn to resist.

Another DefaloatiOn Discovered in New
Jersey.
NEW BRUNSWICK, n. j., Aug. 27.-Free-
holder John j. Hall of the fifth ward, is
missing with $4,000 borrowed money.
The Trenton Times says that forged
notes aggregating between $4,000 and
$4,000 were discovered. The facts as
to these statements are hard to obtain.
The principal sufferers are understood
to be Halls friends, and they refuse to
diYulge the amount of the losses. In
Trenton, Hall had borrowed sums rang
ing from 300 to $1,000. Cornelius Har-
denburg and Thomas Warren are said
to be the principal sufferers in New
Brunswick, The entire loss there will
probably amount to $4,000. Hall was
contractor for the Pennsylvania rail
road, and it was an easy matter for him
to borrow from sub-cOntractOrs.

and a Mrs. Robson of Centerville, near
ten miles southwest of Wooster, left to-

scandal has raised much excitement in
the village and neighbOrhOOd. Robson
is carpenter by trade, and has had
Cole in his employ for several months,
boarding him during the time. For
some time Cole and Mrs. Robson have
been more intimate than regard for the

intimacy eliminated in their running
together Friday. Robson had gone off
to Odell's lake to spend the day at the
Sherman Brigade 9 niOn. When he got
back home he found his house locked
and his wifs gone. She and Cole were
seen going off together.

The Best in the World

Among the brewed beverages of the world the Anheuser-Busch Beer, made by the Anheuser-Busch Brewing Associ- ation of St. Louis, Mo-, takes the lead The highest awards have been given this beer over all others wherever exhibited both in America and Europe notably, at Philadelphia in Io7o, al Paris in 1878 and at the Worlds Exposition, Amster- dam, 1885, on which occasion all of the European brewers of note competed for the prize. These facts supported by the popularity of the Anheuser- Busch beer among beer consumers everywhere are indisputable.
 For the convenience of their trade the Association has established beer and ice depots at numerous points throughout the country, where the dealer may obtain supplies in small quantities and avoid the delay which would be occasioned if compelled to order direct from St. Louis. They have an extensive depot of this kind in Little Rock under the manage ment of H. F. Mons, who will give prompt attention to all shipments. Ad- dress all orders to

A SMOKE IN ITALY.
Luke Sharp, in Detroit Free Pres.

Luke Sharp, in Detroit Free Press.
 The Italian government has entered into very laudable undertaking. It has resolved to suppress tobacco smoking. As you enter Italy the customs officers take from you all the tobacco you have and then turn you over to the govern ment, which completes the work of re- formation by selling to you a, exhorbi- tant prices the most villainous com pounds ever concocted under the name of tobacco. To emphasize the good work and make reformation a certainty the government, which has a monopoly of the tobacco traffic, gets up packages that sell for thirty cents and upwards, with the names of popular American or Eng lish brands of tobacco, so as to enirap foreigners into purchasing. The differ ent names, spelled wrong, pertaining 10 American, all inclose the same kind of stuff. The only difference in Italian tobacco is the labels. The tobacco seems to be made by some secret process out of kind of vegetable mixed with old paper scraps, which help it to burn. The vlc- tim who puts this into his pipe and smokes tiff he recovers-has to learn the whole art of smoking again.
 Yet the Italian government partly un- does it's good work by presenting cigar which is not at all bad for the price, The price IS three-quaIters of penny. and they make a reduction if you take a quantity. The cigars are the most popu- lar in Italy and are called the Cavour," in honor of that great Italian. Thus doth fame end in smoke The cigar Is long and about the same size at both ends. Another popular, but very high priced cigar, for 1t costs a whole penny, is one with straw through the centre oi it. It is long and pointed. used to smoke it with the straw in it, but found that they pulled the straw out, and so l adopted that plan, too, although in so doing missed the burning straw-stack sort of delicate flavor
 A cigar is served up more elaborately in Italy than in any other country When you order cigar the waiter brings you a wax candle with a wire arrange ment stretching out from Ii like t.o arms. The waiter slowly lights the candle and places the cigar in one of the wire arms with it's end in the flame. There |, stays until tEe end IS abou, burned of. when |, IS ready for smoking. Whether this cnnherens method k necessary because the average Italian is too lazy to light his own cigar, or whether it is because the government doesn't put paper into the cigars as into the tobacco packets. 1 do not know. Anyhow, that is the way you get cigar when you are in Rome doing as Romans do.
