Hon. r. O. Mills spoke here yester-
day at the courthouse, tOa large and
enthusiastic audience. He made many
friends while here, and brought back
some straying sheep. Very little feel.

in political circles, and the principal
object of interest is the election In
Ohio. Our county is Democratic, but
we did regale on some crow, but the
bitter taste is gone and we are our
selves again.

AN INCIDENT OF rHIs GREAT EVENT
The next congress of the United
states must beein preparations for the
| celebration of the centennial of the
adoption OF the constitution. Parks
must be prepared and great buildings
reared. These will be enduring mon
uments to the architectural taste of the
ape and country. Brick outlasts stone,
and one vast structure, after subserv-
ing the purposes of this centennial
celebration, will become the abiding
place of the 10000 clerks of the dc
partments of the federal government.
Its vastness of extent can
only be imagined; but the
demand for the existence
of such structure ia imperative, one
man having to deal with different de-
partments within the same hour will
be whirled about from one to another
on an electric railway. Now weeks

The first month OF the new year holds In
her Gift Two full moons. The moon fulis
on the lat 26 minutes after midnight, and
also on the 3Oth at 10 minutes after IL
O'Clock In the morning. On the 4th the
moon Is In conjunction with Jupiter,
and on the 9th with Uranus. On the
18th she pays her respects to Venus, and
on the 14th to Mercury. On the 10th she
is at her nearest point to Mars, and, as
this is the day Of her change to new
moon, 1t shows how near Mars is to the
sun. Indeed. those who watch the course
OF the moon will find it easy to keep IN
mind the relative position Of the planets.
On the Path the moon is in conjunction
with Neptune. and on the 26th with Saturn,
thus completing her circuit and giving the
order of succession OF the planets drawing
near to the morning stars Jupiter, IRA
nus. Venus. and Mercury, and then swing
ing her ponderous sphere near the evening
stars Mars. Neptune, and Saturn.
There are compensations In things celes-

very light over the ice-bound earth.
