A Warning.

The use Of cosmetics among our
fair American women seems to be
on the increase. They imaginethat
the application Of these powders and
cosmetics will make them even more
beautiful and preserve for a longer
while their present charms. 1t is a
mistaken idea which they will find
out too late. All these powders
more or less are exceedingly iniuri-
GUS to the skin and produces coarse
appearance if nothing more.
Here is warning for them.
Fraw FROM, a German actress Of
excellentreputation, died few days
ago in Berlin in somewhat extra
ordinary manner. On having her
bath shepowdered herself with some
sort of yelontine. Then she cleaned
her nails with the point of a pair of
scissors. She stuck herself on a
finger, and the perfumed powder got
into the slight wound. Instantly
the finger began to swell, and the
doctors who We're called in were UNI
able to stop the poisonous progress
of the velontine. The finger was
amputated, and then the hand, but
nothing was of any use, and the I'M
fortunate woman died in the most
horrible spasms, Let our fair wo-
men beware or they may meet a
similar fate or one even worse.

Our talented young North Caro-
linian, Mr.. j. N. Teach, Jr., is win
ing golden opinions in Virginia by
his charming oratory. He is one of
the best and most gifted young
speakers in the State and we are
gratifed to know thathe captivated
the Virginians. He delivered the
annual address before the Lee Liter
airy Society, of the Polytechnic In
stitute May 3lst, and the new mark

it in this manner:
"The theme Of his address, as we
gathered it, was the Social Battle to
be fought by the rising generation.
He referred to the battles for the in
dependence of the thirteen Colonies,
or of North America, the battle of
1872, to prevent infringement on
American rights, and the battles of
the late war between the States for
Observation-Disclosures but, turn
ing towards the young men of the
Institute, he said there Is still
more important battle to be fought
BY the rising and present genera

the social evils Of the present period,
showing their destructive and ruin

gave many examples Of these evils,
showing that avariee, greeted, and

many Of the evils which now affiici

Mr.. Conklings last visit to Washington

CITIZENS MEETING.
Gas ana Manufactures ana other
Matters for the Welfare the Town
Discussed.


Bills were issued on Saturday for a
public meeting OF our citizens at the
Town Hall on Monday evening. Quite
a large number Of representative citi'
zens responded to the cali.
Mayor Bowers cnl!ed tho meeting to
order and stated tho object in calling
them together was to discuss the best
ways and means for securing natural
gas and at least share of the mani'-
| featuring Industries that were digging
up their plants in all parts Of the coun-
try and coming TO the gas and oil fields
to secure cheap and desirable fuel.
Judge Dodge was called to preside
and Mr.. w. Il. Fscott was chosen Secre-
tary. A full and free expression OF the
people was invited and quite literally
responded to. The general tenor Of the
discussion was for harmony and full
altogether for the general welfare of the
town. None wanted to see n crazy
boom, or wild inflated values, but the
property brought up to its real value
commensurate with its superior advan-
tages over nearly if not quite all other
localities in this or any other state for
either residence or manufacturing pur-
poses.
After this phase of the question had
been discussed at some length, and some
of the members Of the gas company had
expressed willingness to turn over to
the corporation their interest in the gas
plant four miles west of town, at the
actual cost to them, Mayor Bowers in
troduced resolution to authorize the
Council to proceed to put in from such
funds as they might have on hand one
half the expense of sinking another
well, the gas company to furnish the
other half and proceed at once to sink
another well. After some discussion
this resolution passed by at least three
fourths majority. A few expressed a
desire that the Corporation should own
all or none.
The Council held a meeting on Tues
day night and another last night to dis
cuss the subject further, and we are in
formed decided to appropriate 81, 900 to
assist at once in sinking another well.
There are some wild reports afioai

Wood County Tax Llst. 1897

We are indebted to Clark Wagner,
Esq, OF Toledo, now engaged in produc-
ing history OF Lucas county. for the
following item of historic interest to the
readers of the JOURNAL, especially the
pioneer readers Of Wood county:
1.-THE Ohio State Journal OF Novem-
ber 10, 1897, contained delinquent tax
list OF Wood county. J. W. Powell was
county Auditor. The list embraced six
parcels of land and one hundred town
lots OF the former two were in Pcrrys-
burg township, and consisted of one
acre of Fishing Island, and five ac, es
Uf Grape Island, and two were in
Waynesiicld township. The town lots
were all IN Pcirysburg, and stood in the
name Of unknown owners. The total
amount of tax due ranged from 10 cents
each on los n, 10, 50s, t3l, G23, Perrys-
burg, $3.50 ON i45 acres in Waynesfield'
The tax was about four per cent. of the
valuation, which averaged about $i2 on
lots, and Sl5 per acre on lands"

THE TARIFF DEBATE CLOSED
After One Months discussion There

on.
WASHINGTON, May 21.-The Tariff de-
bate which began on the 18th of April,
closed by mutual consent Saturday. 1t has
been marked by general courtesy aud
good nature on both sides. In the course
Of il, four men Messrs. Wilson, Of West
Virginia; Russell, of Massachusetts; Scott
of Pennsy lYania, and Fitch, of New York
made a conspicuous mark. They are
all democrats except Mr.. Fitch, md he
though Republican, made an admirable
tariff reform speech.
On the republican and high tariff side il
cannot he said that any man except Mr.
Mckinley distinguished himself or contrI-
buted anything material TO the important
discussion. Some OF the republican speak
era were witty, but most of them were tame,
and even Mr., Reed, the republican leader
of the house, in his speech, lively and
amusing asst was, had nothing TO say ex-
cept TO cry out "free trade" as 80 many oi
his side, with less wit and less brilliancy,
had done before him.
To the older among the listners TO the
! long debate the republican speakers were
curious reminders OF the years bstore the
war, when the democratic replies to repub-
lican arguments on the slavery question
were mainly perpetual cries OF abolition
isp and accusations of lack Of patriotism.
Mr.. Reed, for instance, set out TO demon
slraie that anybody who would reform the
tariff and lower duties, even though only
30 little as the Mills bill proposes. must IN
the nature Of things he a free trader.
Precisely in the same way, when Sew
ard or Chase or Sumner or Hale in the old
days urged that slavery should be exclud.
ed from the territories, the pro-slavery re-
ply was that If slavery was wrong il ought
to be abolished il it WAS right it ought 10
go everywhere ; and The men who wished TO
limit Its area" were necessary nothing
else than "abolilionists."
Well, in the end that name OF appro-
biium became one of credit and honor
mainly because Of the folly and stupidity
oil the pro-slavery orators; and the free
traders IN the country cannot ask any more
powerful assistance than is given in such
speeches as Mr.. Reed'l. II every man
who doubts the wisdom OF The present high
duties and wants 10 see them moderately
lowered is "iree trader" the free trade
church wilIsvery largely and rapidly In
crease, because the American voter. who
WAS not scared TO death when he was called
mn abollionist in the old times, will not be
badly frightened at hearing himself denoun-
cell as "iree trader" nowadaya
The Mills bill will now be laid aside for
time, so that the appropriation bill may
be got out of tile way.
