SALE OF THE TOWN HALL.

ED. JOURNAL Il notice by the Bow.
ling Green Sentinel that by virtue OF an
execution, issued by the Clerk OF the
Court Of Common Pleas, the Sheriff Is
advertising the Town Hall, the property
OF Perrysburg twp. at Sheriff's sale on
Tuesday next, Oct 10, TO satisfy claim
of Andrew Roach against the township
Can you or the Trustees, or any one else
tell what claim Mr.. Roach has against
this township There are many anx.
ious TO know. TAXPAYER,
This Is very proper question for any
taxpayer or any citizen who has any re-
gard for justice and equity to ask. Our
time has been limited but we have talk
ed with several who have more interest
than practical knowledge on the sub
ject, Some seem to think the Trustees
are not taking the interest they should
in behalf Of he taxpayers they represent.
Others think the whole business is a
farce and glaring outrage on Justice
and Equity.
We called on Mr.. Strain, the Clerk
and obtained these figures; The orig
inal claim of the taxpayers Of the town
ship against the defalcation of Mr.. West
colt and his bondsmen, was 90, ,48S. .81
The books show that $1,000 of this
amount is credited. but they don't show
who paid the money. Mr.. A. Roach was
found to be the only man on the bond
who could not be recognized as a mar
of straw. We are told that Judge
Dodge set the bail aside, hut by what
law or equity is not known. How the
case was resurected and placed on the
docket again is best known to those
who operate our courts. Cook and
Troup had been employed some 8 or Q
years ago by the Trustees to prosecute
the case in the in terest of the taxpayers.
AT the May term 1888, judgement was
taken against Mr.. Roach for $l,SS9. 90
as shown by the books. The books also
show that Feb. 0, 'S8 Cook 6 TrouI
paid 1905 II to the Trustees, while re-
ports on the street say that the Trustees
refused to accept the money and receip,
for it, as Mr.. Cook had claim that
would take it from them as soon as they
accepted it.

The taxpayer paid the Clerk of Courts
for making the records; it was not ex-
pensive to keep it standing there 8 or o
years, and just wherein Judge Dodge
can lay off the Judicial robes of purity
and take the case up to the Circuit
Court and get a verdict in favor of Mrt
Roach, and advertise the peoples pro-
perty, appraised at $4,000, to satisfy
the peoples claim of $3,48s. .61-less
court expenses and attorneys fees-so
completely entangles truth, honor, juf-
tice and equity in the meshes of Wood
county courts that it should require
speedy recognition and treatment at the
hands Of our citizens.

 Considerable feeling was shown by some of the farmers in Dist. 2, Friday, when they were told by one of the select men that the tow would not pay for shov- cling roads out in parts of this district. There are living here eight creamery pa irons, and the cream has not been gather ed since last week Monday. Some of the largest tax payers reside here, besides a number of people in feeble health. It was suggested that the commissioners be called out, but this was not done, as the selectman afterward ordered the roads to be opened, and at this writing, Monday, a path five feet wide, some of the way thro' the lots, is passable.

 Chicago Herald: The fast runs out of Chicago are all night runs. and it is night run that tries the engineers courage Driving ahead at a mile minute into a sea of darkness, which human eye cannot penetrate, is work such as no cowardly or even timid man could perform. Among engine drivers there are bold men and timid men, but only the former were &c., lected for these fast runs. A timid man. prone to shut off steam for every shadow seen on the track, or for every imaginary danger, for engineers are called upon con- tinually to beat back their own appre- tensions, could never make time on a run like one of these limited trans to the west. Some of the best and bravest engineers ill the world are on these foot-plates, and in this climate and under the disadvantages besetting them they will find enough to try their mettle.

 Some of the oldest of the Somers peo- pie have been consulted, and all agree that DO such storm ever happened here. Judg ing from newspaper explanations of west ern blizzards, this storm equaled them in every sense except, instead of the extreme cold in western blizzards, the temperature was comparatively mild. Snow was piled in drifts from 10 to 15 feet high, more or less. MT. K. V. Chapin was baffied in an attempt to return home on Monday (his home being not quite two miles from the Street), and had to take up with the com fortabIe quarters of the Elm Wood. Dr. Houghton was blocked in at Hampden for several days.
 An order called the Order of Ameri- can Mechanics was formed, and about 35 members initiated, on the 9th of March A school meeting was held on the 18th inst, to consider whether the order could hire the upper hall in the school-house. Votes were passed which let the hall for five years. The first year nothing will be charged, except the repairs, which the or der has agreed to make upon the hall, for the next four years $12 each year in ad- vance. The hall is open to any other pur- pose at any time except on lodge nights.
 The select school, held by Prof. A. W. Kibbe will be opened on Monday next.

The farmers of- ten derided pork barrel is good thing, af- ter all, some times. We hear of some hazardous exposures on foot and in teams. The more notable, perhaps, were the teach CT of the Glass Factory school, MT. G G. Dave, and some of his pupils, who, after hard struggle, were unable to reach their homes. Charley Carpenter, with Edward Morrison's horse, who daily carries the teacher and Master Clarence B Preston to and from school, in his humane efforts to take home Monday afternoon some small children was obliged, on account of the accommodating drifts and fallen telegraph wires, to put up his. horse near the depot. It was nearly dark before he was able to return to the school house, where were waiting the teacher and one or two of the older girls, for whom no conveyance had been sent. The teacher, with the two boys, started in the driving snow to pioneer the way for them. This necessitated de tour past Sharp's mill. The three plodded on till the Glass Factory village was reach ed, where Clarence gave out, and was hos pitably entertained by Mrs. Joseph Hull until Wednesday. MT. Dave and Charley pluckily kept on in the increasing blizzard until 0. H. Riders, on the Hill, was reached, where they had to succumb and put up for the night

Three families living in 8 fivestory flat house at Madison-ave. and Eighty Fifth-st., :,
 New York, were driven out of their rooms by fire Monday morning. The house,
 although new and fne-looking, was a death-trap which had been erected by spec- ulative builders. There were no fire es- capes to prevent loss of life in an emer- gency and the elevator shaft had been con- structed in such f1imsy manner as to conduct the flames from one story to all the others. Four persons on the top floor were barred in by the flames. One was killed and the rest were hurt while escap- ing. Three other inmates of the house were injured, and brave fireman, who was trying to save others lives, nearly lost his own. .-
