Where Harper's Ferry Derived It's Name.

Harper's Ferry, derives its name from Robert
Harper, native Of Oxford, England. He was
born in 1903 and emigrated to Philadelphia,
where he prosecuted the business of architecture
and mill writing. Engaged by the Society of
Friends to erect a meeting house for them on the
Opequon river, while on his way through the
then almost unbroken forest, he came to the
"Hole." where he had been told he would sec
some wonderful sights. Harper fell in love with
the place, and buying it of one Peter Stevens for
fifty guineas, and securing the realty from Lord
Fairfax, he settled there and established a ferry
Hence-the name of the "Hole" ceased, and "Har-
per's Ferry" lOomed up into perpetual prominence.

How to Preserve Wood.

correspondent says: "I discovered, many
years ago, that wood could be made to last longer
than iron in the ground, but thought the process
so simple that it was not well to make stir about
it. Posts of any wood can be prepared for less
than two cents piece. This is the recipe: Take
boiled inseed-o oil and stir in pulverized coal to
the consistency of paint. Put coat of this over
the timber, and there is not a man that will live
to see it rot"

SAD SUICIDE.-At about half past
five o'clock Monday morning Winnie
Brode, an orphan girl, aged sixteen
years, committed suicide at the resi-
dence of Noble H. Nichols, her guar
dian. living in the south part of Hi:
ram, by shooting herself with re-
volver in the left breast, death ensuing
almost instantly. Trouble of delicate
personal character was the cause of the
rash act. She had just related to her
guardian her condition, when. smart
ing under sense of shame, she rushed
to her chamber, and seizing a revolver
belonging to son of Mr.. Nichols, she
fired the fatal shot. The poor girl said
miserable tramp employed by Mr..
N. during sugar making was the au-
thor of her ruin.

A ShaPner Eaunhf

A sharper struck Ravenna last Friday
claiming that he was the agent of the
Studebaker Manufacturing Co., of South
Bend, Ind. After selling Mr.. Il. F.
Thompson bill of goods, he desired a
check of $50 upon the City National Bank,
of Akron, O., cashed, but Mr.. Thompson
thinking it strange that stranger should
ask so great favor, proceeded to invest
igate, whereupon he found that the gen.
tleman had tried the same game at sever
al other places. Mr.. Thompson swore out
a warrant for his arrest, and Oh Monday
he had hearing in Justice Holcomb's
court. The cashier of the Akron Bank
says the check is a counterfeit, and Mr..
Charles Woodward, alias George
Studebaker,' was held to answer the
charge at the next term of the Court OF
Common Pleas. Being unable to secure
the necessary five hundred dollar bond
he is now boarder at the Crossbar Ex-
change.

A ALETTER FROM PA NSY.

At the recent observance of Arbor Day
by the Ravenna Union schools, the pupils
of the Primary department named a
tree in honor of Pansy-Mrs q. r. Alden
the well known writer. Mrs. Alden
was made acquainted with the action of
the school, and a few days since the fol-
lowing beautiful acknowledgement was
received from her:
To THE CHILDREN OF THE B PRIMARY
SCHOOL, RAvENNA, OHIO.
Dear Young Blossoms How shall Pan
sy thank you for the sweet thought
which made you choose out her from
among all the people i'll this full world
for the honor bestowed?
Oh | hope the tree will grow and grow
and spread out its branches, and cast its
cool, restful shadows just as far as q cd
meant it should, and do its own pleasant
work in the world.
What if the tree should refuse to grow
and the buds on its branches each spring
should refuse to swell, and the leaves
should fail to come and dress its bare,
brown arms! What disgrace to mel
But I have no fears; | believe the good
through the years. The sun will shine on
it, and the rain will freshen it, and the
dews of summer nights will kiss it, and
when winter comes, the leaves having
gloritied it through the autumn, will
nestle closely about its roots, and the
white snow will come and cover them,
and keep the roots of the tree safe from
the cold; and so the days and the seasons
and the years will pass.
Now what of the dear boys and girls
who planted the trifty young tree, and
| in the love of their young hearts gave it
nv flower name? Will they always have
sweet thoughts and kind and true and
| helpful words when they meet to watch
its growth?
AS the years go by, if the tree grows,
and dourishes, and grows old, will they
| gather, | wonder, men and women, un-
der its branches, and talk over the old
times? If this should be, and the tree
robed in beauty should wave its branch
es and rustic its leaves, will the people
gathered to admire il be such as the tree
can look down upon i'll turn with proud
| satisfaction?
Oh who can tell us the story of the hid
den future? Dear boys and girls, the to.
morrows of all the trees and flowers and
children are i'll Gods dear hands.
The trees can be only what he makes
them, but the boys and girls have beel
given minds such as the trees cannot
boast, and il rests with them to decid,
whether they Will grow i'll grace ant
beauty of heart and life, or be shrunkel
and defOrmed in spirit.
Fair young blossoms, will you grow IL
. beauty and bloom always for Jesus
Shall we gather, all of us, some day, un
der the branches Of the tree of life, an(
talk the earth-story over?
L do not know that l can ever stand un
der the shade of the green tree that yOl
have so kindly named for me, but fee
sure of that other one. Will you all NEE
me there? Your grateful friend,
.H PANsY,
Mrs. G. r, Alden, Carbondale, Pa.

VanNess up before the grand jury,
and after long, lingering trial of fif-
teen minutes, this is the verdict: We,
the IL HONEST MEN of Portage County,
have found VanNess guilty of mind
ing his own business and letting other
people alone; and we recommend that
he who is guiltless, let him cast the
first stone. But where is he? He don't
live in Ravenna, does he? No, he's
moved. VanNess has been guilty of
making low prices on good goods for
a year, and he intends to do the same
in the future. So if you want your
moneys worth, give him a call. and
you will not be sorry you did so. Su-
gar is very low now. He will sell you
Sugar at near cost for the next thirty
days, to make room for the large stock
of GOOD Tea he has on the way. Good
Tea wins in the long run, without any
presents. Presents are only offered as
inducements to palm off cheap poor Tea,
dear at any price, and liable to make
you sick.
