Another Great Celebration 10 be
Held tn 0hio


Held tn Ohio.
Two years ago, i'll 1883, Ohio furnished
four centennial anniversaries, one lin
the spring, one in the summer and two
in the fail. Ohio certainly does not do
things in halfway manner. Even the
staid old town of Marietta, whose first
centennial came April z, was not salts
fled with one anniversary, that of her
settlement, but July Is celebrated
another, the formal establishment of
civil government. In the fall the state
held a centennial exhibition at Colum-
bus, illustrative of one hundred years
of progress, and Cincinnati, that" Queen
City of the West" not to be outdone
held centennial illustrative of her first
century's growth Gallipolis now Gomez
TO the 'front.' October 10 next will
chronicle the first century's milestone
of her existence. That day one hum
dred years ago. the first band of French
settlers landed on the north bank of La
Belle river and entered number OF
cabins built by Msjor John Burnham
and company of New Englanders,
under the direction of General Rufus
Autnam, one of the trustees, and
member of the Ohio company.
The French settlers, light hearted
aud merry" bravely took up task for
which they were lily fitted. BY occu
patton in their native land painters,
guilders, coachmakers, watchmakers
and various light and professional
handicrafts, totally ignorant of Ameri-
can pioneer life, it is no wonder tina
even their light heartedness failed tn, III
But they could go no where else and
necessity, though stern and relentless
teacher, soon trained them for the daily
task of making living in the Western
country.
The story is full of romantic interests.
The centennial, coming as it does in the
finest season of the year, promises MT
only to revive these romances, but to be
one of historic interest. About 1t there
also clusters the story of the Scioto
Land company. The occasion will call
out much that is interesting and instruc.
tive in our history.
The citizens of Gallpolis have al
ready prepared for the occasion. They
have organized the proper committees
and invited the State Historical society
10 assist. A program will be prepared
similar to that for the
Marietta centennial of April z, 1888.
The Historical society has taken steps

centennial and also in this volume 10

THE Investors Guardian, of Lon
don, England, in leader upon the
Brazilian position, takes strong re-
publican ground for an imperial jour-
nal and thinks that the feeling against
imperialism in Brazil must have been
very strong to admit of such revo-
luton. The Guardian says in conclu.
sion:
whilst everyone here will sympa.
thize with the late imperial family of
Brazil, distinguished as Ii is by many
noble characteristics it must yet be
the almost universal wish that the
incipient prosperity OF that vast coun-
try shall not be nipped in the bud by
internecine strife, which would be
destructive of all enterprise as well as
of the accumulated stores of wealth.
OF course much is said about the mill
tary character of the revolt, but the
soldiery is so few, and we were going
to say, so inefficient, that it would
seem to he incredible for such united
action towards the establishment OF
republic could have taken pisne
amongst large provinces widely sepa-
rated from each other, unless COM
mon feeling against imperialism, and
towards equality had not been al
ready strongly developed"
This language is very suggestive.
coming from the source it does, and
may be taken as showing conclusive
ly how the leaven of republicanism is
spreading all over the imperial east.

WELL-PLACED LUCK.

A. p. Morse, of San Bernardino.
Gets $4,000.
On the occasion of the December draw
ing of the Louisiana lottery Fate was
pleased to be gracious to an estimable
citizen of San Bernsrdino, Mr.. A. P.
Morse, and he received a profit of
$1,000 on an investment of 81. Mr..
Morse, is the brother OF e. II. Morse,
the cashier ofsthe San Bernardino Ma.
tional Bank, who was murdered about a
year ago. He is ABOUT 35 years of age,
married and has children. He owns a
prosperous paint and oil and picture
store on Court street.
A reporter of the HERALD recently
called on Mr.. Morse to learn something
of the circumstances of his purchase of
the lucky ticket.
''The man who acts as agent for the
lottery here" said he, "had sold out his
regular stock of tickets, but he had SO
many applications that he ordered a
number more. These were sold
until only two were left. An
old lady came in and asked for
ticket and debated long time between
the two. Finally, she took the other
one. This left it Hobson's choice for me
and I took the last ticket and won
t15,0O0."
Elsewhere it was learned by the re
porter that the old lady in question was
SO indignant over the trick which For
tune had played on her that she went to
bed sick and did not get up for week.
Mr.. Morse is good-looking man of
medium height, and very intelligent,
jolly fellow. He enjoys an unusual
degree Of popularity for his humor, fair
ness in business and good-heartedness
There is yet to be found any man in San
Bernardino who envies him his good
luck. He has used about half the money
in his business and will invest the re-
mainder. He is Republican in politics
and prominent Odd Fellow.

A MORNING FIRE.
major Bonsall's Residence Burned
to the Ground.

To the GrOum0a
About 6 80 O'Clock yesterday morning
the residence of Major w. H. Bonsall.
two-story frame building on the corner
of Third street and Lucas avenue, was
totally destroyed by FIRE.
Owing to the heavy rainstorm OF Sat-
urday evening Major Bonsall was unable
to reach his home, and telephoned from
the Nadeau hotel to inform his wife and
family of his intention to remain down
towr sll night. Mrs. Bonsall and her
five children retired about 10 O'Clock,
leaving fire burning in the CRATE of one
of the rooms in the center of the house
Shortly after O'Clock in the morning
they were awakened by suffocating
smoke, which percolated through every
crack in the doorways, and an alarm be-
ing raised they ran out in their nightrobes
| to discover the cause. Directly the air
was admitted into the building, flames
broke out in almost every direction from
the upper story, and in few minutes the
| whole structure was enveloped in the
| blaze. The children ran across the
street to the residence of their grand
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. A. Mcfarland, on
the corner of Arnold street and Lucas
avenue, and roused the inmat who
were asleep at the time. Mrs. Bonsall,
however, remained and narrowly
escaped being severely burned in hel
efforts to save some of her effects, and
Mr.. Mcfarland, her father, in assisting
her, singed his whiskers and hair. An

efficient service. With the exception o.
very few pieces of furniture which were
dragged out of the hallway, the contents
of the house, which included very fine
collection of works of art and bric-a-b -brac
and the wardrobe Of the entire family were
consumed. The loss is estimated by
Major Bonsall at about 500, 600, includ
ing the house, which was valued a
$4,000. The building and its contents
were insured for about one-third of that
amount with the New York Under
writer's Insurance Go. The cause o
the fire is unknown, but, from the cir
cumstances surrounding it and the man
ner in which it broke out when the doors
were opened at the exit of the inmates
it is believed to have originated from &
defective flue, which ignited the foorins
OF the upper story, and after smoulderins
all night, was famed into blaze by the
admission of air. Major Bonsall is nov

house, in which to domicile his family
