we're handed in to the court.
When it was first rumored that
the iury had summoned Witnesses on GER
tain well known gambling cases, the effect
was wonderful. There was q general STAN
pede, or exodus, from the city. In speak
ing Of the popularity of the name Smith,
some person has said that on Q certain &C.
casion q man ran int0'a church and called
out that John Smith was wanted at home,
when half the males in the church put on
their hats and started for homo. So 1t
was in Parkersburg when it was said that
every man in town who visited gambling
houses was either indicted or summoned as
a witness against others. Lawyers lett
their clients in court, editors or reporters
had to take 8 train at once 10 visit the scene
OF an imaginary railroad collision out OF
town. Merchants had to leave at once for
the East to look after q delayed invoice for
the spring trade. Attorneys had to go to
Wheeling to see about the passage Of that
bill" Respectable citizens had to visit
friends in the country. Physicians lost no
time in seeing their out-ottown patients.
In fact il appeared as if everybody was leav-
ing the city at one time. But the mill
ground away, and it ground exceeding fine;
One of the most remarkable features OF
the matter is this: 1t was not at first sup
posed that prominent citizens" would be
indicted; as fast as the foreman Of the
grand jury sent in the indictments the
names Of those indicted were read out in
court, until it was discovered that the
names were running up into the highest
circles of Parkereburg society, when the
court very decidedly ordered that mo more
names be made public" Sublime sympathy!
What the people want is news~-the I'M
biased and ungsrnished news Of the day,
and no matter how high the offender may
stand, let him be treated and dealt with &C.
ccrding to his true character. The names
must be exposed at trial, and it is hoped
that the petit Jury viii deal as conscien-
tiously in this matter and discharge its duty
as faithfully, impartislly and tearlessly as
the grand jury has done.

We are glad to hear and announce the
fact that the employees of the Akron knife
works have gone to work in earnest and
started q cooperative store for themselves,
and the company has furnished them aroom
rent free, and viii also advance the amount
to purchase stock TO those of their employees
who have not the amount ISL at COM

pay it. This is a feeling and action that

viii go q great way in establishing entire
confidence between the men aud the CON-
pany. We would ike to see every other
manufacturing industry in this city follow
the example, as no movement would tend
to tighten labor more than this.-Akron

True Fascination.
LoRloR Ecia.

The reign Of very young girls over the
heart Of mar is ended. "SSe<t Sixteen" is
insipid, fascinating eighteen tame. At
% the young lady Of the present day may
be said to be interesting, also she is charm
ing, and at SO fascinating. But it is not
until a woman gets well into the forties that
she reaches the angelic period where temper
no longer leads the mastery, and mature
thought smooths ont the rugged outlines Of
her mental life. II she understands the art
of selfpreservatiou she may retain at this
age the better part Of her physical charms,
and be pretty in spite of the years. Ninon
dc LEnclos was regarded as a belle and a
beauty at go, and care and discretion are
only necessary to carry the beauty Of youth
far into.mature life.
Another custom is coming into vogue
which must lend hope to many a spinster
and widow of uncertain age, and that Is the
fashion Of women marrying men younger
than themselves. Perhaps this can hardly
be called a novel innovation, however, for
it has been practiced in The older countries
for many years, and in Ireland haslong been
the custom. DR.. johnson married q Won
an old enough to be his mother; DisraeE
was many years his WiEe's junior, and Aaron
Burr married a widow several years older
than himself. The famous Madame de Stael
vas Al when she picked up a young officer
of 20 or so, and Raehsl married VSrnhsgen
Won Fuse when she was over 40 and he in
his twenties. All of these were happy mar.
riages, and Miss Thsckeray. Mrs. Craik and
Margaret Fuller seemed to believe in such
unions, for they each chose comparative
youngsters for matrimonial mates. Modern
and ancient unions Of this kind have proved
lucky unions, and as some Of the latter
have give a sort Of tone and fashion to Gus.
