The Great Flood.

Col. Vance, Editor Of the CALI
polls Bulletin, has published a
handsomely printed book of 1877
pages presenting a graphic and
d-taiied history of the Great
Flood in the Ohio Valley.
The d. tails of the wide spread
disaster are presented in vivid
style, and presents picture, as
nearly as words can co 1vey, OF
the tremendous flood that poured
through the valley carrying death
and destruction in its course.
The efforts of all the relief
committees are shown, also the
kilograms from all the cities ten
dering help, thus showing the
public feeling of sympathy as
we'll as the practical work of the
committees.
The book is for sale at so cents
per copy. Any live young man
could sell at least hundred in
Logan.

The Place to Bury Nc
Gahan.

The Legislative Committee ap-
pointed for the purpose, have ar
ranged the details for bringing
the remains of the heroic Nc
Gahan from Turkey to Perry Co.
Ohio. The village of New Lex
ington has generously rendered a
Lot in the village cemetery. Lo-
gan will make a similar offer and
has as much claim for his final
sepulture. The place for MEGA
hans last resting place is in St.
Patrick's graveyard.
Here, on the sunny hill, sleep
the companions of his youth who
have filled the honored and may
hap unsung destiny of their lives.
Here rest his kindred dead. Just
across the fields is the old school
house, where the venerable old
master, McCourtney, taught him
the first lessons of the books
Down at the base of the grave
' ard hill Rushcreek murmurs as
it meanders, the same invitation
for boys his ears SO loved to hear
as he read his books on the banks
or fished in its sparkling pools.
Almost in sight is the place OF
his birth. All around in every
home are friends with grateful
recollection and heartfelt prayer
for the blue eyed boy, noted as
one who always knew his cate
chism best.
It was at st. Patricks where he
went to church with his mother.
It was here where he obtained
the graces to make his life pure,
as we'll as the inspiration to make
his efforts deserving.
Let McGahan be buried where
he belongs, with his kindred
dust and among his kindred peo-
pie in the grave yard at St. Pat
ricks.
He was an obedient boy and a
favorite child to Father O'Bren,
the "old grey sheriff. who plant
ed that Irish colony, built that
church and blessed that grave
yard.
Let the bones of the good boy
whose lofty soul led him to the
remotest end Of the earth in car
rving out the grand purpose of a
nations liberation, be brought
back for final rest under the af-
ternoon shadow of the church
where he prayed, and over whose
sanetified surroundings it is not
tirreverent to think the spirit OF

THE GALLHWS.
Two Young Partners in Murder
Hung at Ashland, 0.

ASHLAND. o, May 16-George
Andrew Horn and William Hen
ry Gribben, aged a and %, were
hanged here to- day for the muir
der of Henry Williams on March
25, last year. All three were
employed in a saw mill at Polk
and the night before went to
West Salem, Z miles distant, for
their pay. They became intoxi-
called and quarreled. Late at
night they returned to Polk, Will
liams walking, the others going
by a freight train. Horn and
Gribben waited at Polk for Will
liams to come on. Meeting him
Horn threw a heavy stone and
knocked Williams down, and
brsined him with vicious blows
with an ak. Gribben was con-
victed as an accessory.
At 1905 the prisoners were led
to the scaffold, and without un-
necessary delay were bound and
the trap sprung. At 1921 they
were pronounced dead. The
necks of both men were broken.
On the scaffold, Horn was cour-
ageous, and said-"I want 10 say
to you, boys, that l am as inno-
cent of this crime as you fellows,
but l have got to suffer here and
die to- day. Gribben was limp

Curious Proceedings.

Siiy Spuity 40 SOuhGJ ~
unexpected developments and
very mysterious proceedings
The latest freak attracting pub
lie attention is a movement of
the Orphans Home Trustees to
rescind a contract made by the
county Commissioners.
Some time ago the Commiss-
toner's of Perry county, under a
special act of the Legislature,
bought 40 acres of unimproved
land near New Lexington, which
with fence TO inclose il, cost them
about $500. Subsequently they
found that 10 erect proper tnild-
ings for home would cost fully
$15, 900, so that its structure was
impossible within the law which
only authorized an expenditure
of $1,000. Thereupcn they bought
of Col. jackson. his residence
one of the finest sites in the
countv-with buildings already
erected thereon. BY the terms
of the purchase The Commission
ers reserved the light to require
him to purchase the first site at
cost price. if no better price
could be obtained.
Under this they sold it to him.
presumably, because it was the
best price they could get. and
made the deed, signed by all the
Commissioners. The Commiss
toner's took possession of hi:
premises, left them unoccupied
for eight months, then rented
them for year, levied taxes tt
conduct the Home, and a few
weeks ago appointed three Trus
tees for it as the "Children's
Home"
The first orphans the Trustees
took charge of were some New
Lexington Lawyers. by whom
they instituted suit to rescint
the arrangement. This, were i
successful, would end all chance
OF a Children's Home, as its erec
ton would then be extravagan
and impossible.
| As the petition contains moth
ling OF law or fact, or proper par
ties to maintain itself, the good
faith of the parties in bringing
the suit is under grave suspicion
1t is evident that the action il
Iany event is to the prejudice, o
1.-THE county, and destroys tn
tchances of relief for the man,
poor neglected children now ii
the county infirmary.
It looks to us, from this horl
zon, as though there may be som
political skullduggerry anima
ting the Republican Trustees
and that Col. Jackson, who is
prominent Democrat and a ger
tleman of political Importance
lis to be embarrassed and annoye
in a prospective campaign.
may be that the Trustees hav
farms and properties affected b
a change of location.
At any rate the suit is move
one and will command public al
tention.
Perry county has nine newsps
pers, and if we are mistaken
the views presented, will loo
for suggestions from the pres
more directly interested in tn
question.

An Unfair Attack en- Gros.
VeMOf.

Some days ago several acres of
ground in the city of GAINESVILLE
sunk several feet, causing con-
sternation among the sinners,and
crowding the churches with the
newspaper men of that murky
city, all thinking the day OF
judgement at hand, and all feel
ing the immediate need OF re-
pentance. 1t since transpires
that the subsistence was due to
underground work of Pluto OF 9th
er Republican enemies of Gen.
Grosvenor, and that the subter-
ranean politician mistook Zanes-
Vile for Athens.
We hardly think it fair that
Republicans should bring to
their assistance the service oi
the Hades all es in swampine
Grosvenor, and we protest that
the hero of HELPS Half Acre shall
have fair fight with the Evil
Spirits of earth, and not be at
tackled by the allied Republican
forces of the Lower Regions.
