DEATH OF MRS. MEYER.


Mrs. May Meyer, wife of r. c. Meyer
of this place, died Wednesday morning,
of puerperal fever. after a brief illness.
Less than three weeks ago a bright lit
tie baby girl came to the home of Mr.
Meyer, and its presence brought added
happiness and JOY to the household. At
about the same hour in the morning just
one week before her death Mrs Meyer be-
came greatly alarm ed at the storm which
ragged, receiving severe nervous shock,
which unbalanced her mind, and from
which she never recovered, but grew grad
ually worse until her life went out
Mrs. Meyers girlhood and young wo-
manhood were spent in this place, where
she was much beloved by all who knew
her During the period of her married
life her unobtrusive gentleness and lady
like department won the respect of those
around her 1t seems a cruel fate that
one so full of life, with such promise of
usefulness, should be taken from devo-
ted husband and family, and from the
companionship of friends; but there is
consolation to bereaved friends that she
goes out of this world of budding beauty
into that land where spring growths are
perpetual, and where there is sunlight and
joy forever.
Deceased was % years of age, and was
the daughter of Mr. j. F. Simpson, form
erly of this place, now resident of
Steele, Oak. In June of 1885 she was
united in marriage to Mr.. r. c. Meyer,
and has resided here with her husband
since that time.
The funeral will take place from her
late residence at II o'clock Friday. In
terment at Union Cemetery.

THE LOCAL ELECTIONS.


The township and municipal election:
in the county on Monday resulted about
as usual. In some of the towns there wa;
a surplus of Republican candidates, re

Democratic candidates. In Bridgeport
R. B. Mitchell, the Democratic Mayor
won on that kind of tactics, defeating
Charley Junkins by majority of Z, and
F. c. Robinson, Republicans. John
Stuff was reelected Marshal The wise
thing for the Republicans of Bridgeport
to do hereafter is to hold a municipal
convention, and place a distinctively
Republican ticket in the field.
At Martins Ferry, NJ. C. Mitchell, the
regular Republican nominee for Mayor
was elected over J. W. Buckingham,
Citizens ticket, by 100 majority. In

and Leander Wood, Rep, for Marshal,
defeated by Wm. Burns by plurality
of 1S5.
In Pease township all of the Repub
lican nominees were elected except JUS
tice of the Peace, the regular Republi-
can nominee being defeated by Samuel
Clemens, Republican, on the Democrat
ic ticket.
In Bellaire three municipal tickets
were voted for The Republican Mayor
was elected, the vote being as follows:
Brown, R., 1,017; Darrah, 602; Ander-
son, Ind, 161 Browns plurality 215.
VIM. Darby was elected Marshal over
James Fallen by 638 majority.
George Woodbridge, DEM, defeated
Dewitt Danford, Rep, by 426 of plu
rality.

rality for Water Works Trustee. Four
Democrats and one Republican were
elected to the Council, and three Repub-
licans and two Democrats were elected
Assessors.
In Pultney township the following
were elected: Trustees, John Davs, R.,
three years; George Kearn, D., one year.
Treasurer, George Mertz, R.; Clerk,
Frank Williams, d.
In Barnesville, DR.. DR.. II. W. Baker
was reelected Mayor and the Republi-
cans were mostly successful in the town
and township.
In Kirkwood the Republicans elected
their Trustee and their entire ticket
with possibly one exception.
In Goshen the Republicans carried
theiT entire ticket except for Assessor in
the Belmont precinct.
In Colerain the election was compli-
Gated with a local school fight, and
party lines were not adhered to
closely. The Republican Trustee was
beaten, as was also both of their candi-
dates for Constable and the Assessor in
the Colerain precinct.
In Staid old Democratic York town.
ship the Republicans elected Noah B.
Carle Justice of the Peace, defeating
H. Green.
All in all, the Republicans have nc
reason to complain at the result.
