Something New in Wills.

Y, III this State, has tried his hand

That measure of success. He has
bft his property to his grandsons
ind granddaughters on condition
hat the boys shall always vote the
Democratic ticket and the girls shall
marry only Democrats in the event
hat they marry at all.
tits not improbable that this dis
position of grandchildren was sug-
gested by what the Hon. Chauncey
Forward Black said in New York
speech some months ago was the
practice in York County. He af-
|irmed that no Democratic father
there would allow his daughter to
marry a Republican. This, if true
must go long way toward explain
ing how York keeps up its big Demo
cratic majorities except in those
years when citizen of that county
is running for something on the
State ticket 1t is an
all-the-year-round sort Of election
eering that must certainly have its
effect.
But while it seems to have told
on the politics of York, it is evident
that nothing like it has been custom
ary in Bradford. The last named
county gives about as much Repub
lican majority as the other does
Democratic, and this without the
application of any rule that the
laughter of Bradford Republican
shall not marry Democrat. How

Not the Very Latest.

Another pugilistic wave is upon us.
Reports trip and fall over each other in
order to be placed at the head of the
column of some newspaper which gives
the very latest. 1t is not the very latest
to say to the readers of the NEWS. HERALD
that at New Orleans last week Jake
kilrain came out second best in an en-.
counter with young Californian. Jakes
wife has not yet been heard from as to
whether she believes the fight was con.
Quoted fair or not. But the news is a
week old anyway and Jake is better and
may yet surprise the country with his
prowess in the manly art. But for
solid enterprise and desire to play
second fiddle to no other locality High
land county should have cookie if not
the whole bakery. Other places have
to make special preparations, fix an en-.
closure and have certain rules, while our
local talent are ever on the alert to seize
opportunities as they arise. In proof of
this assertion the local champions of
this borough improved the time and en-
tertained the crowd at the Gregg sale
last week by display of the manly art in
the room where the farm implements
were kept. The reader will notice that
this last item is also week old, but
news OF this kind should not be pulled
too soon. All this is secondhand news,
and we really are not in possession of ali
the names Of the contestants at the
Gregg sale last week but would refer the
reader for further particulars to Mr..
James Stratton. He was there.

Granger-Smith.

Thursday, February 9th, 1890, was a
beautiful day and one long to be remem-
bered by many. The occasion was the
marriage of Mr.. Edward s. Granger, son
of DR.. b. ID. Granger, to Miss Eva p.
Smith, daughter of Mr.. b. d. Smith, all
OF Russell. Promptly at IL m. the
couple came before Rev. w. N. Maxey,
who, in brief but impressive manner,
pronounced them husband and wife in
the presence OF about forty relatives.
After the ceremony the couple proceeded
to the dining.room, followed by the
guests, where all partook OF the dainty
viands so bounteously provided for them.
The afternoon was pleasantly spent in
conversation, music, &C., after which
the guests departed, wishing the newly
married couple nothing but happiness
and prosperity.
The many presents received were both
valuable and handsome.
On the following day a reception was
given at the residence of DR.. Granger al
Russell. Although the weat her was
somewhat inclement some thirty guests
were present. At noon the guests were
regaled with bounteous repast, and
the afternoon was spent as usual, quite
pleasantly. Mr.. and Mrs. Granger has
the very best wishes of the writer.
A FRIEND.

Electric Light.

Chillicothe is having the question of
the cost of lighting that city by electric.
ity under discussion. OF course the city
is now lighted by electricity and at a
cost of $50 for each light. The present
contract has yet eighteen months to
run, but there is proposition on the
part of the present company which owns
the plant to reduce the price to $40 per
light, providing contract is given for
ten years. The Leader and Advertiser of
Chillicothe both refer to Hillsboro us
having the best rate OF any other city of
Ohio. There is one point in which both
OF the journals mentioned are in error,
ard that is that the Hillsboro contract is
strictly moon schedule. The contract
is that the lamps burn each night of the
year, but that on the night OF full moon
and the six nights following, the lights
may be turned off at midnight, provid.
ing the sky is clear, but if cloudy they
burn all night. That is the contract
and $40 per light is the price for 1000
candle power. In addition to this the
Light Company light the City Building
free.
This much has been said in reference
to the true status of affairs in this place.
Hillsboro has not only been fortunate in
securing good rate in reference to rem.
tai, but also the very best system of arc
lighting. And here let US say that the
Leader, in saying that Chillicothe was
the best lighted city in Ohio, was govern.
ed by sense of local pride. You Ger.
tainly never saw Hillsboro in the blaze
of her electric lights. Come and see for
yourself you may be the judge.

Prominent Hillsboroans.
'The lamps shown DER fair women and bra,

'The lamps shown DER fair women and brave
men,"
Hillsboro has furnished a large mum.
Der OF men to assist in the counsels of
the State and nation, of which we all
feel proud. Ohio has gained the repu.
tation as the mother Of Presidents, dis
tancing the Old Dominion. It is really
the great number OF able men in the
Republican party that has been the
cause of some of the friction that has
existed in Ohio of late years. These
leaders in State and National assemblies
have their admirers, and too eagar
friends, hence the petty jealousies that
have disturbed the welfare of the Re.
publican party in this Commonw wealth.
But not only has Ohio great men-she
has also fair women. And here Hills.
boro steps modesly to the front and
claims her own. In a recent issue OF
the Evening Star, of Washington City,
mention was made of the prominent
women of Ohio, and amongst others ap.
pears the name of our townswoman,
Mrs. j. j. Pugsley, and her daughter,
Miss Mamie. The Star, after giving q
very good likeness Of Mrs. Pugsley, has
this to say of Hillsboro's representative
lady:
CoRNELIA PRICE PUGsLEY,
The representative lady of the Hillsborc
district of Southern Ohio during the two
Congresses in which her distinguished
husband has figured as member of the
House, has been prominently identified
with the highest circles of fashionable
life. She is the daughter OF Judge John
Winston Price, native of Hanover
county, Va He removed to Ohio as a
young man and married Ammo Mcdowell
daughter of Judge John Adair Nc
Dowell, cousin OF Gen. Irwin Mcdowell
one of the military heroes on the Union
side in the war, and niece of Lyme Star
ling, the founder of Columbus, the capi
tai city of Ohio. The Prices, the Nc
Dowells and the Starlings are among the
historic names of the great common.
wealth between the Ohio River anG
Lake Erie.
