are we to bestow the regulation

Y. M. G. A.

The first services by our newly or
gained Young Mems Christian
Association were held at the Court
House, last Sunday afternoon, con-
Quoted by the President, Prof. A.
L. Purinton.
The attendance was much larger
than anticipated and the readi-
ness to participate in short talks,
singing and prayers, most encour-
aging.
In accordance with the unani-
nous wish expressed, an appoint
ment was made for religious servi-
ces again next Sunday at 4, p. M,
at the Court House.
A large number of ladies were
present last Sunday, and they are
especially invited to come again.

Mr.. Kenna's PrOudest Moment.
New York Tribute


"My election to the United States
Senate has been a great satisfaction
to me, of course" said Mr.. Kenna,
of West Virginia, to some friends
who were congratulating him, re-
Gently; land l, of course, am very
grateful to my friends for it. But
/ tell you frankly, gentlemen, that
neither it nor any steps of rapid
promotion in my political career
has given me SO much genuine
pleasure as the fact that my hound
pup took the premium at the dog
show the other night"
What is it to be honored with a
seat in the National Congress
what to be exalted to seat among
the Senators who guide the mighty
affairs of the greatest nation under
the Sun-what is all this to being
the proud owner of the best pup in
the pack?

The Association has called in
twenty per cent. on its stock, to
which is beiAg added private con-
tributions, to be used in inclosing
Cooks Cemetery" A substantial
new fence will be built on two sides
along the alley and next the Sand

used to fence the other two sides.
With the consent Of Mrs Dem

will embrace the land down to the
line of Juliana Street and out to a
line running straight with the
back line of the old cemetery to in
tersect Julianna Street.
The grounds viii! be thoroughly
cleaned up, the shruboery and
trees trimmed, dilapidated stones
reset, avenues opened where prac-
ticable, and what has hitherto been
too much neglected spot, will be
made beautiful.
Such is the information we get
from official sources. Contracts
have been made and the work will
begin at once. The enterprise
commends itself to Our people and
all ought to contribute.

Honor to Whom Honor"

A correspondent of the Weston
Republican writing of the recent ac-
ton Of the County Court Of Lewis
in refusing longer to sanction the
iniquities of the liquor traffic, uses
these most appropriate words:
Permit US in behalf of every
truly moral man to thank our Com
missioners for the noblest and oest
act of their lives, which will re-
dound to their honor as long as the
records of Lewis county stand"

WANTS TO BE VIsITED.-Mr. ia
cob White, aged rs years, living
near Briscoe Church, Wood county,
who has been sick in bed many
months, wants his brother, lessee
White, or some of his family to
come and see him. He doesn't
know where to write him, and
hopes this notice may in some way
get his desire to his friends.
We sincerely hope that this
longing desire of our aged, suffer
ing friend may be gratifed.

Burglars in st. Marys.

We make the following extracts
from last weeks St. Marys oracle.
On Monday night some burglars
entered the store house of G. w,
Riggs, and took about $25 in mon
ey, together with some jewelry be-
longing to Mrs. Riggs. An entrance
was effected by prying the door
apart with a rasp and breaking the
catch. Mr.. Riggs had most of his
money in the safe, which they did
not succeed in opening.
The burglars next attempted to
enter the store of c. w. Bills, as in
dications plainly show that some
one had attempted to pry open the
door.
The next place attempted was
the store of Joseph Porter. Here
they took out pane of glass from
the door by which they made an en-
trance. They secured about $40 in
money here, and a box of silk
handkerchiefs, valued at SIS.
A mattoek, brace and bit and
a rasp, belonging to Geo. Zipp,
blacksmith, were found on the floor
in the room. They had evidently
been stolen for the purpose of eff
tectlng an entrance.
1t was discovered the next morn
ing that A. P. Riggs skiff was miss
ing, 1t was undoubtedly taken by
the thieves.
There seems to be no clue to the
robbers as yet.

Took HIM IN.-Running across
our venerable friend, Mr.. Thomas
Coleman, of Jackson, the other day,
we Just took him in for year
that is he took the FREEMAN in for
a year, as it was quite proper for
him to do.
Mr.. Coleman is looking for
R. r. contractors or any live bust
ness men who want timber or tim
Der lands with a good saw mill
thereon, all of which he has for
sale.
Timber men would do wei to see
Mr.. Coleman.

"Died at his residence on Luzader

after an illness Of five days, Fran
els Flanagan, in the 18th year OF
his age.
The subject of this notice was
born in county Longford, Ireland,
and emigrated to the United States
at the age Of H."
We clip the above from an ex-
tended notice of Mr.. Flanagan's
Death, in the Grafton Sentinel.
We much regret that in our
"B. & O. Notes" last week, by one
of those errors that will slip in be-
times, our composition made US an
nounce the death of conductor
Flanagan" by emitting, "the faith
er Of" as our reporter had it.
The genial Captain well knows
We have no desire to announce his
departure and that he has our SYM
pathy together with that Of his
many friends, in the death of his
aged father.
The Richie Democrat also an
nounces the Captains death, doubt
less copying our error. We are
sorry for this unhappy mistake.

Saloons, eighty; cost of paupers,
$500; cost Of police, $1,000; IL
quors sold, $4,000; habitual

that it is whisky selling that causes
high taxes and makes paupers?
