some startling Charges In Jour
The air seems to be pretty thick
now with newspaper rumors. 1t is
said that John Mackay is about to
foreclose a mortgage on the New
York Herald, and the Free Lance
says it will be consolidated with
the Enterprise with Col. Shaw as
editor. 1t is more generally be-
lieved, however, that Mr.. Mackay
himself will take charge of some
department, and probably edit the
fashion or mining column Of the
paper. It is said that Mr.. Mackay
thought of trying the Police Court,
but found the labor Of being up
nights as too wearing.
Right after this comes the an
nouncement that The Boys of this
city has changed hands Johnny
Wright has sold out to Merigold
and Corbett, giving them the type,
good will and advertising patronage
Of the paper for $45, clearing $15
on the sale. Johnny said he
found it difficult to run a political
newspaper and 60 to school at the
same time. The paper will con-
tinue to run semi-weekly, until
the campaign opens, when it will
support one or another of the aspi-
rants after carefully weighing the
sug- evidence.
There is also rumor that one of
our numerous contemporaries has
changed carriers again.

A BIG BAPTISM.

Shaw's Hot Springs Chartered
by the Second Adventists.
On Monday last there was a
strange scene at Shaw's Hot Springs
The Second Adventists, who have
been camping in this city for some
time, drove out to the springs in
carriages, and there immersed four
teen people, mostly ladies. They
went into the large swimming tank
In bathing costumes, and were i'm
mersed by being laid out backward
in the water. Each one was placed
entirely beneath the surface and
the service was read by the minis
tiers. When the first load arrived
Shaw, who did not understand the
nature of the mission. began to ask
them whether they wanted hot or
cold baths. When he was made to
understand the state of affairs he
checked off all who went into the
water and charged them so cents a
head, but did not enforce the rule
which was set forth in the large
placard on the wall f.: Persons re-
naming in the water over half an
hour will be charged extra
The parties drove back to town
very much refreshed, and the ladies
all agreed that they preferred warm
water to cold to be bantisedin.

A Queer state OF Affairs at the
Other End OF the County.
There is big school row in En-.
pire over the selection Of teacher
The old School Trustees want to
return the present incumbent, a
woman, but the new Trustees want
a man. The new teacher attempted
to take his seat on Monday, but the
old incumbent refused to give hers
up.
The APPEAL has received COM
munication from Empire, charging
the present incumbent With spank
ing young girls in the presence Of
boys and exposing their persons, as
used to be done in the Orphans
Home some years ago, and also of
using unladylike language in the
presence of the children. /
It is also alleged that most Of the
children have been withdrawn
from the school, as parents refuse
to send them during the present
state of affairs. The question of
the rights Of the old and new Board
will be tested in the courts.
There are other charges il the
communication, but which the Ap-
peal declines to print unless they
can be substantiated by response
bic parties.

A LOST HORSE.
An Equine Mystery solved.

AN EOu1HC N ySlcry SOAsCu.
About week ago, an Irishma
, came into Justice Gaige s office an
J said that his horse had been stole
the night before by unknown PAL
ties. He gave description Of tn
animal, and Deputy Sheriff Ullricl
went out with Furlong after tn
animal. They made thorough
search for the lost beast, but there
was no trace Of him anywhere.
| Yesterday morning the Irishmar
came to the Sheriff's Office lookins
quite sheepish, and said his horse
was found. He walked away has
tily, making no explanation, and
the officers determined to find out
what was the matter,
| It appears that the horse had
been used for work, and had drag
ged heavy two-wheeled cart about
three months.
He became worn down so that
the back bone looked like a string
| of door knobs, and the hide of the
quadraped looked like Congressman
Daggett's hair trunk, that has been
| over the G. P. road and back a few
times. @
The animal shrunk up more and
more, until he seemed like col
lapsed boiler fue, and his bones be-
gan to show signs of coming out to
sun themselves.
Well, the owner got job down
in Washoe county about the time
he harvested his wheat, and in
order to save the horses life he
turned him into the wheat pasture.
The wheat had not been thrashed
and was stacked in the center of the
field. He turned the horse in one
night just about dark, and the next
morning he was gone.
It appears that as soon as the an
imal found the stack, he began eat
ing hole in it, and in few hours
had run a tunnel into the center of
the stack. There he was so full
that he could not get out, and some
of the straw fell down and closed
UP the hole. Then the horse began
to stope out the bonanza; running
drifts and cross cuts, as the 'humor
seized him. In a few days he be-
gan to want water, and so started a
drift west, toward the old spring.
One morning the owner was pas
sing the stack, when he saw the
horses head come out of the side
of the stack. and it almost paralized
him.
The beast soon struggled out Of
the hole and started for the spring
at 2::40 clip, The increased size
of the animals paunch, as well as
the rapid gait so astonished the
owner. that for several minutes he
was unable to recognize him; think
ing it another horse entirely.
When he realized the truth, he
crawled into the stack and found
it a mere shell; it having been COM
pletely eaten out inside.

There were two sad pictures in the
Court Room at the close of the criminal
business, when the prisoners were brought
in to be sentenced. Frank Arbaugh, a
fine looking young man, was convicted
of stabbing man. The excuse was, that
he was drunk. That is, he filled his hide
so full of whisky that he wanted to kill
somebody, and evidently tried to do it,
but failed. When grasped by the hand of
Justice, he pleads intoXication-or rather
his attorneys do-as the only mitigating
feature. This is very properly considered
be an aggravating feature of crime. Ar
baugh was sober enough to attempt to
kill man, almost succeeding, and was
sober enough to go to the Penitentiary.
The only regret is, as he must go to the
Penitentiary, that he did not try his little
jack-knife ON the man who sold him the
poison which endangered McKeever's life.
Thomas Harrison, a stout, fine looking
young man, was convicted of larceny, for
stealing goods from the store of Stephen
son & Claar, at Coalition. This young
man-who was abundantly able to work
took these goods home and concealed them
in the house of his mother, thus bringing
the old lady in danger of being sent to the
Penitentiary 1t is hard for an intelli-
gent man to understand how the human
mind can be dragged down to the concep-
tion of such miserable practices, or how,
in community like this, a young man,
amid all the free schools, churches, and
other 7ennobling influences, can voluntar-
lily thrust himself into prison, to be for
wears the fellow of thieves and murderers.

President Arthur, before retiring
from office, ordered Court Martial
in the case Of Gen. William B. Hazen,
Chief Signal Officer. The General
seems to have been laboring under the
impression, for some years, that about
the grandest man in the military SER
vice OF the United States, was and is
Gen. Hazen. He has been very free
in his criticisms of other officers, and
has recently been making serious
charges against Hon. r. T. Lincoln.
Secretary of War. The President
rightly concluded that it is time to
find out what the windy General
knows about his superior officers.

Unnecessary Waste of Money.

Tobacco is one of the most costly
absurdities the world ever saw. In
the city of New York alone ten mill
ions of dollars are burned up every
year in cigars! Think of the daily
smoke of the torment Of this Chris
tian city! Think of such a morning,
MONDAY, and evening incense toward
heaven. The fire upon the affairs of
the god Tobacco never go out. Thou
sands of young men, who can ill
afford it, spend from fifty to two hun
dred dollars, or even more, every year
for tobacco.
A pastor states that while his whole
society expended a year only eight
hundred and forty-one dollars for the
support of the gospel at home and
abroad, sixty-seven of his church
members expended eight hundred and
forty-fve dollars for tobacco. A
pretty close race between the gospel
and tobacco. Scores of men spend
fifty times as much for tobacco as
they do for missions; and yet they
profess to be servants of the Lord
Jesus Christ, and to love him more
than all else. Fifty dollars for to-
bacco and one for missions! Or even
the same for each! What a record
for the day of judgment? Has Chris
tianity no voice against such hideous
hypocrisy ?-Holiness ConserUator.

WHOLE NO. 96S.

The Gubernatorial boomer is abroad,
and whenever he roams up and down
the State finds regular cyclone of
enthusiasm existing for his own cam
didate. The boomer does his work
with conscientious faithfulness. As
rule he is not attached to any par
ticular denomination, but exceedingly
favorable to all. He is of course
scrupulously honest, and never lies
except to help his candidate. He is.
not profane man, but the incapacity
and utter unfitness of all other candi-
dates sometimes forces from him an
emphatic cuss word. He is strictly
temperate and never, never drinks ex-
cept to the health and long life of
those who promise to help the man
he is working for.
In the boomers letters to the news
papers, he treats all the candidates
with impartial and knightly courtesy,
but is careful to suggest that his own
candidate has entire possession Of the
popular heart, and will undoubtedly
be nominated on the first ballot. In
fact, it is plain to be seen that the
selection Of any other man would be
a calamity to the party, and yet the
other gentlemen connected with the
office are splendid fellows, good sol
diers, safe men, but unfortunately
they lack in magnetism; they can't
straddle well; they are not mixers;
they are "sot" in their notions; they
wouldn't be acceptable to all the fac
tions Of the party. What we need is
a long armed man who can reach oyer
there and shake hands with the Com
munists, and over yonder and shake
hands with the Capitalists and then
turn half round and pat the Prohibi-
tionists on the back with his right
hand, while he is caressing the liquor
dealer with his left. There is but
one such man living, and he is the
very Identical man whom the boomer
is booming.-Columbus Dispatch.

The Central Ohio Eisteddfod COM

tleman who successfully arranged for
the Welsh Musical Festival, which
took place in this city last New Years
day, gave banquet last evening at
Ruhl, Corbett & Co.'S, in celebration
Of st. David's Day, which is to the
Welshman what St. Patrick's Day is
to the Irishman, and is generally OBJ
served throughout Wales and in many
of the larger cities of this country
wherever societies bearing that name
exist. The event occurs on the LIST Of
March, which fell on Sunday this
year, hence its celebration on the I'd.
At 9 o'clock about thirty members
and invited guests sat down to royal

sponse to the toast "St. David's Day."
from Rev. Griffith, who gave brief
biographical sketch of the Patron
Saint. Mr.. John H. Richards then
sang 1.-The Land of My Father" the
banqueters joining in the chorus.
'Eisteddfod'' was then responded to
by Rev. Cadwallader, who spoke Of the
utility of the society in advancing the
literature of the language, and advised
the formation of st. David's Society
as co-operator in the work Of ad-
vancement and as a means through
which accumulated funds might be
made to do much good in benevolent
way.
To "Welsh as Citizens" Judge John
M. Pugh was the first to repond. He
had been born on this side of the wa
ter, but was not responsible for it, as
he had not been consulted in the mat
ter. His lot in early life had fallen
among Welshmen, as his father in
those days kept open house to them.
In 1882 he worked with them, driving
an OK cart, and of all the men on the
contract, all but one had turned out a
success. During an experience of fif-
teen years as Probate Judge he had
never had occasion to send Welsh
boy to the Reform School, and in the
five years hat he served as Trustee of
the School, not one Of that nationality
had found his way there.
Mr.. Richard Jones required to the
'30's, when the St. David society pa
raded the streets with leeches in their
hats. He had never known but one
Welshman to fail to stand by his
nationality, and his failure was due to
inability to speak any other language.
A Welshman, on arriving in this coun-
try, became Immediately Americanized
and forsook all foreign institutions
save his church.
Ex-Mayor Peters and other gentle
men made remarks of an equally in
teresting nature, and the meeting
closed by singing the "Star Spangled
Banner" led by Mr.. Will Lott. The
members Of the committee have in
contemplation the organization of a
St. David's Society some time IN the
near future The workings of the So
ciety are similar to those of the Odd
Fellows and kindred organizations.

We received, a few days ago, from our
old friend DR.. II. Adams, the following,
under date of Beaver Pike County, Ohio,
March 2nd., 1852:
81 notice in the Standard dated Febru-
airy 18th, 1885, the following language, to-
wit: 1--WE learn from Mr.. McGinniss, who
has been visiting at California, that Rev.
Fl. Adams is living there, domiciled with
his third wife, his daughter Amanda be-
ing the wife of Mr.. Emory, merchant at
that place." This is true, with this ex-
ception-I am not living in the village of
California, but about eight miles north of
it, on farm, near the town of Beaver.
My POstoffice address is Beaver, Pike Co.,
Ohio. I wish you would correct the above
named mistake, and explain, for the ben
eft of the readers of the Standard, the
definition of the word "domiciled."
DR.. Adams adds that he calls for the
correction and definition because some
people seem to have gotten the impression
that he is living with his daughter and
son-in-law, in California. We cannot un-
derstand how anybody could get such an
I'LL pItSSloll lIOlu Iodtl1llS Guo lGblu AS W
the definition, the word domiciled, means
having gained permanent residence or
inhabitancy. And we presume the old
gentleman has gained permanent resi-
dence, by this time, at his home near Bea-
yer. Therefore, DR.. H. Adams is domi-
cled with his third wife, at his home near
Beaver. And may they live long and
prosper.
