field analysis, as compared with former years.
Springfield seems u, he even more backward
than neighboring cities. A young lady has
received box Of flowers from Cincinnati,
which contains specimens Of almost all Ohio
wild flowers and early garden flo xen.
An eye witness gives the following account
Of . thrilling scene at the the circus last
Monday afternoon:
"The iron.jawed lady, . beautiful looking
being In lavender tights, had just been drawn
to the top Of the tent BY . rope terminated by
q leather thong, to which she clung by her
teeth. The top Of the tent reached, the time
came to lower her when the crowd had
"oh-ed" and "oh-ed" sufhciently at her won-
derful strength of jaw, to the horror Of the
supes In charge Of the rope, Il stuck fast In
the block Of the pully and refused 10 work.
The iron-jawed woman glanced quickly be-
low to see why she was not lowered, and
when the true state Of affairs dawned upon
her she grew we'll nigh frantic. In . minute
all was confusion, men yelling and women
crying. Suddenly one of the circus men
with rare presence Of mind, Skinned up the
centre pole and loosened the rope, when the
woman was lowered from her perilious po-
sition. She was conducted almost fainting

Sam, the Scaramouch. comes to the front
this week with fine picture Of Captain Asa
s. Bushnell, of this city. The base Of the
picture is surrounded by waving grain, and
the picture Is really very handsome. The
article accompanying II reads as follows:
"In the city OF Springfield, county Of
Clark, and state Of OHIO, there resides gen.
tleman who was christened, when quite
young, Asa 8. Bushnell. Had he been cog
nomened John Smith, or John Jones' or
John Brown, he would have thrived and be-
come just as popular. Anybody who don't
know OF Ohio affairs is not acquainted with
Ohio affairs. To begin with, he was brave
soldier, then, as a manufacturer OF the cele-
brated Champion agricultural implements, he
amassed a snug fortune. Captain Bushnell
is more or less interested in politics, and is a
probable Republican gubernatorial quantity.
A wbole-souled. genial gentleman is Captain
Asa s. Bushnell" RAMBLER.

Tho Question OF Water supply.

The City Council and Board OF Water
Works Trustees have taken hold OF the mat.
ter Of increased water supply for the city in
dead earnest at last, and with an energy that
leads to the hope and belief that something
practical will result speedily. A majority Of
members Of Council, in committee Of the
whole, visited the ground about and beyond
the pumping house Friday afternoon, to
investigate matters bearing upon the main
issue. Prof. Prince was chairman and Robt.
johnson secretary. The ground was pretty
thoroughly gone over and after consultation
a resolution, pr sented by Mr.. Mast,
was reported by small maj ,rity,
recommending to Council to order
the sinking of another we'll, twenty
feet in diameter and eighteen feet
deep, at the base OF the hill on Ross Mitchelrs
premises, to be tested by the city's eight-inch
centrifugal pump as to amount of water to be
had. This recommendation will be made at
the next meeting Of Council, but will meet
with strong opposition. NJ. Lessner will
present . minority report Of the committee Of
the whole in favor Of adoption Of the water
works committees report, made last Tuesday
evening, as already outlined. 1t is claimed
there are several insurmountable objections to
the plan above named, not the least of which
Is the cost, and probability that the required
supply Of water cannot be 80 obtained. Pri-
vate parties and their legal representatives
accompanied the committee yesterday.
Captain A. s. Bushnell, Of the Lagonda
firm owning water right fed from the creek,
has signifed their willingness to make free
gilt of it to the city for the proposed i'm
provements under the original plan suggested
by the Water Works Committee, on certain
reasonable conditions. Private parties inter-
ested in water rights suggested IT the captain
were going to make such gilt it might be to
them, but he preferred to benefit 80 900 or
more people rather than . dozen, and stuck
TO his first proposition.

cents admission, the Cincinnati Enquirer
says:
Grau's Opera Company still continues its
successful performances at Havlin's Theater,
and very large audience last evening espe-
cially manifested its full appreciation Of as
well-balanced comic opera troupe as has
appeared hero this season. Straurs' attractive
comic opera, "The Queens Lace Handker-
Chief" was effectively given with the tull
strength of the admirable company. This
comic opera has been given here before, but
never In bstter style. The libretto is inter-
esting and serves to give opportunity for
many beautiful musical effects, all Of which
were taken advantage Of. The second act was
especially good and was enthusiastically ap-
plauded. Mr.. Max Figman gave very COM
ical rendition Of the Prime Minister. N %
Cooper, as Donna Irene, proved herself rs
goI d a singer and actress as has appeared this
season. Miss Alice Hosmer as the Queen was
excellent, while Mr.. Gilbert Clayton as Don
Sancho, the tutor, was very funny. The
chorus was good and handsomely and apprs-
priately oostumed. The performance through
out was well worthy of the applause be-
slowed upon it by large and intelligent
audience.
Arrangements were perfected last night by
which the "Od World Gem Co."-all Euro
pean Specially and Operatic people, will ap-
pear at Blacks Opera House on Monday and
Tuesday, May II and IL. The company con-
sists OF forty people and carry a car load Of
