HillsbOrO College.

Now that the charter of the Hillsboro
College (no longer Female) has been
changed and the course of studies adopt
ed is such as to suit the most fastidious,
it becomes the duty of parents and guar
dians of young people who have to be
educated and who are residents of the
town or surrounding country, to careful
ly study the best interests of those under
their care by keeping them surrounded
by home influences, which are always
known, whereas the surrounding inhu-
ences of distant places will need GER
tain amount of investigation.
Another feature that might be offered
is local pride in our home institutions.
Other things being equal, each one is
in duty bound to support the local insti-
tutions. Under the new order OF things,
with Prof. Mckenzie at the head, every
thing bids fair to make success of our
Normal School. The people OF Hillsboro
should enter into and encourage this
enterprise, making it truly one OF our
own building up, and not wait for out
side influence TO do this thing for us.

Birthday Party.

WILLETTsvILLE, o., July Is.
christmas comes but once year.
and so does PERSONS birthday. The
friends of Mr.. Arthur Hatcher, realizing
this fact, determined to make July 18th,
his twenty natal day, still more
memorable by giving supper in honor
OF this event. Accordingly, about one
hundred OF his friends and acquaintance
were cordially invited to be present.
Notwithstanding the weather looked
very unfavorable in the afternoon, the
evening was propitious, and some eighty
of the invited guests assembled under
the hospitable roof of Mr.. Thos. Hatcher,
who resides near this place.
In the meantime Arthur had left the
hay field late in the afternoon, in COM
pany with Mr.. Everett Britton, for the
ostensible purpose of going to look at a
horse which the latter thought (?) OF
purchasing The aforesaid piece of horse
flesh was inspected and Arthur's opinion
duly rendered. About eight o'clock they
drove back to Mr.. HIS. Arriving there
OF course it was rather overcoming for
Arthur to find that his friends had all
come over, and that he, with his every.
day "toggery" on, was the center of at.
traction. He bore up manfully, how.
ever (for he was no longer a minor, but
a man), and contributed his full share
to the evenings enjoyment.
Later in the evening the company were
seated around well.loaded tables and
partook OF an elegant repast. 1t was
deficient in neither quantity nor quail
ity. The candy was toothsome, the cake
luscious, the ice cream delicious. Tha
the company was select and the supper
appreciated, is expressed in four world
-"they took the cake" Willettsville
Farmers, New Market, New Lexington
Leesburg, Lynchburg, Wilmington ant
Hillsboro were all represented, but tim
and space forbid the mention of an,
names.
After partaking of refreshments, Sc
cial chat and various games were tn
order of the evening. 1t was not unit
the "wee sma' "hours were fast approach
ing that the last goodnight" was spo
ken and the company departed, wishin
Arthur many more happy birthdays.

Unreliable Statistics.

In the last issue of the News. HERALD
the number OF births and deaths as re-.
ported by the Assessors of the different
townships Of the county was given. The
proverb that "Figures won't lie" or that
statistics given officially are conclusive,
should in this case as we'll as in many
other cases be received with due allow
ance for inaccuracy and mistakes. The
mistake to which we point is the num-
Der OF deaths reported in Liberty town
ship. The Assessors returns gives the
number of deaths in the township as
being 81, while the correct number as
taken from the books of the undertakers
in Hillsboro, with names of the parties
and date of time OF death, is 1O3, with
possibly five more who were attended
by outside parties. II the other town.
ships are in the same condition as Lib
erty, the official returns OF Highland
county are far from correct.

Surprise Party.

A goodly number of the friends Of
Mrs. w. b. Corbin assembled at her res.
idence, three miles south of Bell, July
18th, the occasion being her thirtieth
birthday. The idea Of surprising her
originated with her friends, and right
well was 1t carried out. The company
was not large enough to be unwieldy,
but was Sufficiently large to have lots of
fun and to get away with large amount
of chicken, cake, pickles, &c. The din.
ner was immense--at least that is the
verdict of all who participated. After
spending the evening in social talk, mu-
sic and games, the crowd dispersed for
their respective homes, feeling that such
gatherings are a blessing to all concern

HILLspORo, July 18th, 1888,

To the PaJii0 After an effort made
by various citizens of our village during
the past year, the Hillsboro Female Col
lege has been lawfully changed by tho
majority vote of the stockholders from
an institution OF learning exclusively
for the education OF females, into an in
stitution OF learning for the co. equal ed
ucation OF males and females under the
corporate name OF the Hillsboro College,
and has been placed under the control
and management OF Prof. j. IL. McKen-
zie, for Literary, Scientific, Normal
School and Military education, thereby
not disturbing or interfering with the
Conservatory of Music and Art, &C., un-
der his control at the Highland Institute.
These arrangements have been accom-
plished under the prevailing sentiment
of all parties interested, that there should
be harmonious union OF all the educa-
tional interests OF IIillsboro, and under
the belief that the plan adopted by each
institution will bring about such sincere
union in short time. But success de-
pends entirely OH the liberal spirit and
patronage of our enlightened commune
ty, and the generous liberality of the
citizens OF our county and the surround
ing counties, in contributing towasd the
attainment OF the highest and most va
ried order of education for their children.
An ACQUAINTANCE of half century with
the people of this region inspires the
confident belief and the most enthusi
astic hope that, inasmuch as the union
plan embraces the teaching of Science,
Literature, Music, Art, Military tactics,
especially Normal School privileges of
education. they will zealously embrace
the opportunity for an educational
boom, and cause new era Of prosperity
and progress to dawn on our village.

Sad Accident,

A little daughter of Mr.. Jack Grove,
OF near New Boston, sustained a sad and
fatal fall from a colt last Sunday night.
The family were returning from church
and meeting another member OF the
family--a boy who was riding colt
the boy placed his little sister on the
colt expecting to lead it along. The girl
fell from the colt alighting on her head
sustaining fracture OF the skull, from
which she died last Friday night. The
family have the sympathy of the com.
munity.

Natnre,s Entertainment.

During last Sunday night we were
permitted to look on beautiful phe.
nomenon of nature, the total eclipse of
the moon. While eclipses Of the moon
are not rare, even total eclipses occur
ring frequently, yet the opportunity
of seeing an eclipse under as favorable
condition is rare. The beauty OF the
whole heavens, the comfortable and
balmy condition Of the night, the en-
tire absence OF the clouds made the sight
pleasing one.
To the young people who look on an
eclipse interested and excited, it is well
to explain to them during the occur
renee that the earth on which we live
is at the time of the observation in a
direct line between the sun and moon
That the shadow appearing first on the
eastern portion of the moons surface is
caused by the apparent motion of the
sun from west to east. And the shadow
passing over the surface of the moon
from eastto west is produced in the same
way as the shadow of a passing vehicle
cast upon wall through an opening a
door or window the shadow always
passing in an opposite direction from
the object causingit.
1t would be interesting to young peo
pie to explain to them that total
eclipse or any eclipse of the moon to us
would be to the inhabitants of the moon
an eclipse of the sun, while to the inhabi.
tants of the sun the appearance would be
that of one bright planet obscuring the
light of another.

from Miss Nettie Weatherby the origi-
nal poem by Mrs. Mule; the reading OF
regrets and reports OF absentees; the

OF ten years ago; these were the cluster
ed pleasures Of the hour.
Consultations, matrimonial, removals.
etc, have left singularlv large number
to respond to roll call. II
OF the one upon whom death has laid
his embargo, the regret of the circle was
expressed in the beautiful sentiment
offered by Mrs. Mary Randall, OF Wy.

The interest in the small folk was
gracefully given by Miss Flora McKib

sentiment, "Our Children--God bless
their dear hearts. May they have al
good times rs we."
Miss Mamie, 1.oyd,. of Mexico City

added much to the vivacity OF the hour
To the participants the occasion was {
