Convention Notes.

No Irish or Dutch need apply
The Gore cattle were not need
ed Bright was not candidate
Where, oh where was Capt
Glove and his red SASH
Keynes doubtless thinks thai
now is the time to stand together
No Irish or Dutch were con.
sidered.
Teuscher was doctored to death.
Drs. Cable. Allen and deSteiger,
assisted by DR.. Brooke, salivated
him.
General Wolf will now proceed
to nominate committeeman
Brooke for State Senator.
Keynes for Representative and
Wells for Sheriff are both blarst-
ed Englishmen.
Vickers recognizes taffy with
out a label. Mr.. Booke may play
the balance Of the boys, but his
proprietorship does not cover
Vickers.
Bright owes all of his promi
nence to Brooke and should have
presented the thanks of the Con.
vention to Allen at Its close.
Mr.. Brown, of Marion, was not
in the ring. Mr.. Brown, of Ma
rion, didn't have the President of
a bank to present his name.
Keynes bar1 has done him
good service before, and will
doubtless be his rock of salvation
in the present struggle.
Keynes will now come out from
behind his barricade of barrels,
where he sought refuge from
Morgan's raiders, and proceed to
open his bar1 for the political
raiders.
Bob Price lodged the honor(g)
dexterously, but it was really un
fair to take advantage of Wick
ers' absence.
Judge Grogan was present and
willing to take part, but was cru
ely overlooked.
The Convention was as calm
as May morning. Bright was
not a candidate, therefore he had
no need of Baird. Wheeler, Pur-
sell & Co., to stir up the animals.
Brooke hadn't Bright to fight as
usual, then the Convention was
dull, stale and Improbable.
There never is much music in
a Republican Convention in Lo-
gan, unless Bright is a candidate.
Rempel attached a telegraph
wire 10 his ear and went 10 Gu
lumbus. The work was all done.
however, before he started.
Bright should have had a copy
of the Border News containing a
sensational article concerning
the starving to death of a woman
in Perry township some time ago,
and embodied It in his eulogy on
his candidate for Commissioner.
Redfern, Redfern, it seems that
we have heard Tom Johnston
mention that name sometime.
Eli West was lukewarm, there
fore Brooke made him chairman
of his committee. Now Eli will
get hot under the collar and
wheop 'er up, Eliza Jane. This
will please Brooke and the au-
thorities at Columbus will give
him praise. Eli will do the work,
and Brooke will freeze onto the
usufruct.
McClintock was too modest to
read such goody good resolutions.
He was fearful he would shock
such COED christians, virtueus
brethren as Keynes, Brooke, Bu-
tin, himself, and such gentlemen
as are known to stand together
in certain emergencies.
Itwas hard to tell whether Sam
Bright was presiding over the
Convention or over Green. The
most of his attention seemed to

The Book Of Joshua.

the spirit moved the 1althIul III
the land of Ward, and they said
one unto another, wherefore shalt
not Joshua, our brother, become
the law maker from the land
round about the city Of Logan
and even unto the city itselfg
2. And Joshua hardened un
to the spirit, and the people all
round about Harper's Postofice
lifted up their voices in loud &C.
claim and sounded the hugag,
the shawn and the dinner horn.
and danced highland filings and
double shuff1es all round about.
3. And the. spirit spake unto
Joshua and said unto him, 60
hence to the city, and set 'em up
to the boys, and'cmalse yourself
solid with the sons of men.
3. And Joshua answered and
said unto the spirit, "you bet
your sweet life," and straightway
he girded up his loins and de-
parted "well heeled" for the
Hook Hooking.
4. And 10 it came to pass,
when he had come unto tho city;
the boys swarmed unto him and
pressed him sore, each for him
self asking for his share of shek-
els.
5. And one a Publican, more
rapacious than his brethren, said
in his ear. "give ye all your trea-
sure unto me, for that is the way
we always do in Hooking, for 10.
l am the high cock O. -loorum, the
State and County Committee
man, u,.to whom all ssinews of
war; are delivered, and who
knows how to keep 'em and rem
der unto the others the proper
account, showing balance due
me every time"
6. But the spirit spake unto
Joshua and said unto HIM, Take
up thyself and waltz off. Change
the combination of thy exche--
quer and vamoose, for 10 thou
hast fallen amongst thieves and
thugs. And Joshua hearkened
unto the spirit and skipped.
Z. And so Joshua having
seen the boys, departed to Gilgal
and marshaled his hosts for the
mighty struggle against tie Hit
tites and Shi tites at Gibeon.
8. And 10 when he had come
into Gibeon, otherwise Rempel's
Opera House, the valorous men
of the Keynites and the Culver
ties and the Brookeites and the
Brightites were gathered togeth-
er and laughed Joshua to scoln.
and told him to move off and skin
out, and reviled him sorely. And
Joshua waxed warm in the box,
and was mad and swore under
his breath and otherwise.
9. And the Hittites reviled
him more, and he waxed fiercer
and kicked harder and called up
on the Sun to stand still upon
Gideon and the Moon to locate
in the valley of Ajalon, and they
wouldn't do it, and 10 it came to
pass that the Hittites assisted by
the Brightites and the Brookites
and the other ties, fell upon JOSH
ua and laid him out, and crushed
HIM.
10. And Joshua returned to
the Postoffice on Monday and all
Israel with HIM unto the camp
to Gilgal, which is in Ward, and
recorded in chap. 10. verse 43.

Heavy Thunder Storm at Grcensburg.

GREENsBURa, Aug. 14.-This place was
visited by heavens artillery, being the most
terrifying visitation ever witnessed here.
For a few minutes the rain fell IN binding
sheets, while the air was heavily charged
with electricity, and peals upon peals Of
lightning wore heard, reminding person
of an artillery battle. The flashes were so
vivid and the reports SO loud as to carry
terror and dismay to the bravest. The resi-
dence of John s. Boothe was struck by light
ming and slightly damaged.

the End.
GREENF1EID, Mass, Aug. 1z-Joseph
Nidel, the sixteen year old French Canadian
boy who claims to have been cured at the
shrine of st. Anne De Beaupro near Quebec,
has had his trouble for years, it being at
times impossible for him to walk without
the aid of crutches. His blood has been so
full of scrofulous humor that there has been
seventeen running sores on his body at one
time. Money to send him to the shrine was
subscribed and ten days ago he started. He
entered the church with $50 others. With
the others he was permitted to touch the
sacred relics. Then prayer for nearly five
hours followed. The boy is bright and in
telligent, and he tells the story graphically.

crutches fell from them; walked and crisd
and laughed, and felt that my prayers were
answered The priest asked me If would
take home my crutches, and told him 1 had
no use for them. The clothes, too, which
were around my body dropped of. I came
home to my parents cured"
It is only fair to say that the boy walked
miles without crutches, and his sores are
healed. His pulse, however, beats 10, when
it should be only eighty OF ninety. Every
one hopes the young man is cured, but, of
course, many believe he is laboring under
temporary excitement

the commission has met with great en-
couragement from the railroad men
and traders. The universal opinion seems
10 be that there should be q
public schedule of rates, and that no changes
should be made, either for lower or higher
rates without due notice being given. 1t
has been advocated that if the rates are to
be governed by commission the location
Of railroads should also be controlled by 1t.
The Senator says that in the East the rail
road men are in favor of charging higher
rates for short than long hauls, which is the
reverse OF the sentiment in the West. While
everyone is not at liberty to appear before
