The Supper and Musical Entertain
ment given by the Ladies Benevolent
Society of the Congregational Church
Friday evening last, was very largely
attended, the church parlors being
filled to their fullest capacity. The
musical program was especially en-
joyed. 1t embraced both vocal and
instrumental pieces which were rem
dered and executed with critical taste
and excellence. Such entertainment Is
will bear repeating.
Since VanNess put oil down TO 10c.
gallon it requires one of the water
works pumps to fill the cans. He has
knocked the bottom out of prices all
along the line. Our advice to all is to
take advantage of the crash and lay in
a supply. In lots of So or SO he will
give yon special wholesale prices, aud
at the same time give you 16 OF, to
every pound. He is headquarters for
tea and coffee. 4 little erockery left
yet, which he will sell you for very
small sum. His expenses are very
small and he divides the profits with
his customers. He meets any and all
competition and guarantees to make
prices lower than any body sells. Kent

The meeting at the Disciple Church
which has been i'll progress for the
last two weeks, viii! continue through
the present week. Thus far there has
been twenty-three confessions of faith.
Among the few psssable lecturers
sent out by the lecture bnteau, there
are enough dudes and cranks TO place
the institution amcng the many un-
mitigated humbugs that are organized
to fleece the unwary.
Some years ago man lectured here
who was in such an advanced stage OF
intoXication as to be scarcely able to
maintain a perpendicular position but
he was funny fellow, which redeem
Ell rim to SOME extent.
This year Mr.. Lawson failed to keep
his appointment, and the bureau re-
ported that he was not in q condition
10 lecture, nor even report his where
ab0uts. A prohIbitionist would not
hesitate to give the cause Of the icon =
dition," hut On account of fellow
feeling, your correspondent Is moro
charitable. Last week Col John
Quincy Hoyt was advertised, by big
aud little handbilIs, suggestive of a
circus or patent medicine, to deliver
his " famous lecture" here. The state
ments in the sraan bills following the
question, ho is Col HoyI,' were
enough to induce i person Of ordin ary
discernment, 10 pass by on the ether
sids. His subject was i The World
Moves, - and he who stands still will
be crushed or left behind, oI as We
Wonid say IN the more classic language
OF orr old friend 9hakeepear, ," Damned
be he who first Grles, hold. enough.
And the audience was damned before
the world reno wned John Quincy
H0yt had made the first quarter, and
got more and mole 50 till in despera-
tion President Laughlin requested the
Col. to clo7a his lecture. The Lecture
Bureau is nOG iii as good repute az for

Mr.. l.. NJ. Hank has abandoned his
trip on account of i'll health
lie and Mrs. Hank are visiting their
friends in Niles and vicinity.
Dallas NJ. Hank has returned from
an extensive trip through some of the
Southern States, engaged Ia his drug
business. He had an exceedingly
pleasant trip, and was very much sur
prised to learn that the southern peo.
pie are not barbarians, outlaws and
cut throats, but an intelligent and su.
perlativeIy hospitable people. And
so it is with the generality of north
erners who go south and mingle with
the people there on business.

The people of Kent are considering
the subject OF constructing water
works i'll that town. Last week the
agent Of New York syndicate of cap
itaiists was there Investigating the
subjects t,and, according TO the Bulletin
the result of his Investigation was that
water works can be erected in Kent
at a reasonable cost His proposition
Is TO erect water works, using the sys
tenn best adapted 10 the place, and
maintain them for period of twenty
years, giving the corporation the priv
ilege of purchasing the plant at the
end of that time, providing the cor.
poration rents so hydrants along the
six miles Of pipe to be laid at an an
nual rental of $50 each. They propose
to furnish water to private ipdividuals
at the same price furnished In other
towns,

II
After sn elapse of ten years We made
a visit to our native town, the quiet
and unpretentious village of shslers-
vile. We have not time to chronicle
or individualize the numerous changes
that have taken place during this
seemingly short period. Luman Mel
son has erected superb dwelling on
his farm two miles south Of the Center,
N. W. Colt has also magnificent res.
idence in the northwest part of the
town, c. r. Sage has rebuilt his state
ly brick edifice at the Center, David
Parker is The proprietor of the spacious
Hays mansion. also there are many
other evidences Of prosperity in the
way of improvements which are last.
ing ornaments to the township.
The greater changes have occurred
among the inhabitants Many of the
pioneers have crossed the river to the
beautiful beyond, the middle aged
have advanced to fill the vacancies,
the young men of ten years ago are
the business men and husbandmen of
tOday-yea, and daddies too-and the
little boys then are now the bloods
of the place. While many familiar
faces are seeking their fortunes in
other localities while strangers are
filling their places,
While there We had the pleaeure of
attending an entertainment at the
Town Hall, given by members of the
Union Sunday School. The ever in
| teresting temperance drama, Ten
Nights in Bar Room," was admira-
bly, presented considering that not one
member had ever before appeared on
/ the dramatic stage. The death of little
Mary and the solemn promises OF
| Morgan to his faithful wife and dying
child was SO effectually portrayed as
| to bring moisture 10 the eyes of many.
The villain Green and prey, Willie
Hammond, We're we'll taken and rem
dered true to nature, the everlasting
yankees, Sample aud Mehit, were on

Miss Collins, who has spent several
years as missionary among the Sioux
Indians, delivered an address in which
she vindicated the claims of the red
man to be civilized and protected by
their white brethren. The address
was replete with illustrations and an
eedotes OF Indian life and character
istica. Miss Collins is a pleasing, tiu-
ent speaker, and the red men OF the
west did not suffer in her hands. A
meeting was appointed for Monday
p. m. To take measures to aid the work
among the Indians.
The final test of the pumps and
other machinery of the Water Works
was made on Thursday last with most
satisfactory results. Engineer Cook of
Toledo, was present and superintend-
ed the test. One disadvantage was
that the coal used for the occasion was
of an inferior quality, yet with ten
pounds of coal seven pounds of steam
was created. Water was forced
through the mains at the rate of about
one and one-fourth million gallons
in "a hours. Mr.. Cook said that Ra-
VIENNA had one of the very best systems
of water works to be found in any
town in Northern Ohio, and at an un-
precedented low price. Everything
seems to be all right as the test showed
no flaw in anything.
