BELIEVED TO BE MURDERED.

The Disappearance Of Benjamin Bru.
baker Still ~ Great Mystery as Ever.
The disappearance of Rev. Benjamin
Brubaker, formerly of near Northampton,
this county, an account of which has al
ready appeared in the REPUBLIc. yet re-
mains great mystery. Mr.. Snyder, who
has just returned from Kansas, where the
family of Mr.. Brubaker resides, says that
all efforts 10 trace him have proven futile,
and hope Of ever hearing anything Of him
Is almost abandoned by his family and
friends.
Mr.. Snyder also brings the additional in
formation that the borse and buggy, with
which he left home, were found in livery
stable In town Of an adjoining county,
where the missing man had himself left
them. 1t Is also now known that he had q
considerable sum Of money with him when
he left hope.
The theory Of his family now is that he
had been induced to leave his horse and
buggy at the stable on the representation
that they would conduct him to the part of
the county which he desired to visit After
getting him under their control he was
murdered for his money aId the body dis
posed Of In some manner. This theory
seems to be justified BY many incidents that
have come to their knowledge, and is gen.
orally believed by those acquainted with
the case.
Time may solve the case, and II murder
has been committed, bring the perpetrators
to Justice.

cumulated at the Office of the Adams Ex.

'Dead-horse" is the term applied to the

Dayton to be Known by That Name In
the Near Future.
Our sister city, generally known as the
champion City" is very much wrought up
over the removal of one of Its man
ufactories TO Dayton. A story Is
told Of public meeting called to
take some steps to aid Chicago manufac-
turing enterprise, seeking new loca
tion, in which some patriotic citizen urged
the organization of board of trade, to
conduct such matters as they were then
considering. A gentlemen replied that, in
his opinion, 1t would be well to have the
board" also assist in keeping the manu-
factories they now have from moving
away.
IL our growth continues half a century
as at present. We shall have Springfield for
one of our suburbs.-Dayton Board Of
Trdde Journal.
1t Is embarrassing 10 see you so stupid.
The gentleman made good point, in stating.
as he did, that the functions Of q well
conducted board of trade indicates the re-
tanning as well as procuring new
manufacturing industries. 1t is not
thought necessary up this way to
attempt to induce any industry of Dayton
to come here or to attempt to prevent any
going from here there, as it Is simply q
change of location in the same city, since
Dayton Is soon to be known as "West
Springfield" The line will soon be thrown
around you and you may as well make up
your mind TO come in easy.

Curious Incident Of War.

Some interesting information With refer
ence to o very curious incident which oc-
CURED during the Franco-German war has
just come to hand. In 1870 three French
visitors established themselves at q hotel in q
well known German town, where they re-
manned several months Being then in want
OF funds and unable TO pay their bill they
were compelled TO leave package which
they had brought from France in the hands
Of the landlord in satisfaction Of his claim.
This upon examination was found TO contain
sumptuously designed state chair. The
name Napoleon was embroidered upon the
silk covering Of the back and seat, and, on
the occupant pressing his hands upon the
finely carved gilt arms, musical air was
played by an instrument concealed within
the upholstery. The care of this remarka-
BILE piece Of furniture seemed the only occu-
patton Of the strangers, who are supposed to
have been awaiting the advance of the French
army, and, in the event Of its proving vic
torious, would doubtless have conveyed the
chair to Berlin, where, it Is presumed, It was
to have been used as throne by the Emperor
Napoleon. The chair remains In the posses

The Champion City Times Is thief but
1t ought to try to steal intelligently and not
pose as an absurdity in the eyes Of the
public.
On Thursday the REPUBLIC published an
article upon the progress Of the prepara-
tions for the Urbana csmp-meeting. The
Urbana Herald faxed the article. per'bdtim,
without credit, and the first edition of TO-
days Times contains the article in full
credited to the Urbana Herald. The RE-
PUBLIC does not feel honored by working
for the columns Of the Tunes, but that
sheet could have saved days time and
many good laugh at its idiocy by clipping
direct from the REPUBLICS columns.
