If you want a full and grand descrip-
tion OF a trip from Eaton to Cleveland
call on John Fleming, proprietor OF the
eagle Hotel" He was there at the
Knights of Pythias gathering. What
John didn't see about the beautiful city
of Cleveland, wouldn't be worth putting
in a book.
The Lancaster Gazette says: The Bo-
hemian oats swindlers have shufi1ed their
cards for a new deal. Their game now
is RED Line Wheat" Farmers, look
out for the fellows who come around with
plausible representations of the merits of
this alleged new variety of grain and the
money to be made in handling it. 1t is
probably but a variation of the Bohemian
oats swindle, adapted to the present sea-
son OF the year. Proper attention to this
caution may prevent modification and
loss.

How old time butchers, milkmen,
brewers and housekeepers got on with
out ice is o not only a question, but a
wonder. 1t is not to be understood that
ice was not used to some extent since
civilization brought man up from the low
estate of savagery to his present exalted
condition; but, nevertheless, it is true
that where one pound of it was used for
preserving one hundred, or even one
hundred and fifty years ago, one hum
dred thousand is now consumed, and the
demand is increasing at such a rate as to
amaze those who have been in the trade.
There is great commotion among the
saloon men over a law just brought to
light, that closes all places where intox-
icating liquors are sold as a beverage
within two miles of any fair grounds du-
ring the time of holding an agricultural
fair. 1t was passed by the Legislature
last May; the penalty for a violation is
a fine of not more than 500 or less than
$25, or imprisonment for thirty days, or
both. The law was enforced during the
| Springfield and Urbana fairs. We would
like to know who introduced the law and
see the vote on it.

1t has transpired that a slick villain
with e method of making money
has been victimizing the farmers by the
old confidence game in a new phase. 1t
seems that a very smooth young man has
been going through the country canvass
ing for a new patent wire fence, which
he proposes to put up at the nominal sum
of forty cents a rod. After having talked
the farmer into the notion of trying a few
rods of the fence, this young man pro-
duces what he represents to be a contract
on the part of the farmer to take so many
rods of the new patent wire fence at forty
cents a rod, but which when signed turns
out to be a promissory note. The notes
are discounted at the first bank that will
take them.
