Last Monday night there was held at our
school house one OF the largest and most sue
cessful receptions ever held In the village OF
Vernon. 1t was a reception rendered by
the patrons and scholars of our school to ID.
G. Keyes, who has been principal of our
school for the past year. A year ago Mr.
Keyes came among us an entire stranger, and
as he was quite young man, only 23 years
old, many doubted his ability TO safely con-
duct the school and sustain its high standing
as all VernOnites are and have Justly been
proud of their school. After being with us
one year, the Board used their best efforts
to retain him at least another year, Offering
him an increase of salary, but to no purpose,
as he had made up his mind to change his av-
ocation and enter upon the study of law; for
which purpose he intends entering the law
office of G. j. Willet, of st. Louis The
high appreciation in which he was held by
the people of Vernon was manifested by
the number present, and the presentation OF
fine gold watch, a present from his schol-
ars and friends in Vernon. The presenta-
tion speech was made by Prof. VanDorn, of
Holly, who has filled the Baptist pulpit for
the last year. The Prof. in his unique way
with well chosen and pathetic words assured
MIR. Keyes that while the way of the trans
sor is hard, that true worth and well direct
ed thought and action were equally sure of
their reward.
Mr.. Keyes was completely broken up, as
the whole affair was complete surprise TO
him, he having been away and just return
ed on the evening train. In attempting TO
reply he found himself almost too full for
utterance, and while thanking the people oS
Vernon for the kindness shown him and his
wife during their stay here and for this (as
he thought unmerited evidence of their
good will and esteem, tears could be seen.
coursing their way down the cheeks of many
of the citizens and all the scholars. Ice,
cream and cake in abundance was served TO.
all present, and about eleven o'clock all
went home feeling that they had had pleas
ant time. Mr.. Keyes, we understand, leaves
this week for his new home in st. Louis.
A PATRON OF THE SCHOOL.

The Patrons Wool.

Wednesday was great wool day at Ovid,
il being the day set for the Patrons of In
dustry to deliver their wool at Ovid to be
shipped to Boston for them by Nj. Il. Divine,
the Bedding banker. Mr.. Divine had previ-
Ously received wool at Pewamo, and came
here Wednesday and began numbering the
sacks at So. Up to two o'clock, Thursday,
about the closing up of receipts at this place,
134 Patrons had delivered their wool to him
at Ovid, amounting to about 1875 sacks, or
about 10000 pounds instead of $4,000 as
reported in Wednesday nights News. At
that hour they were then loading their third
car, and as it is impossible to get more than
$4,000 pounds into a car, our estimate is
about right. The bank up TO two o'clock,
yesterday, paid out upon checks to Patrons
1886, which in addition to about So, 900
previously paid by Divine would make the
amount paid to Patrons about SIS, 335-a good
big sum for one days handling.
The Patrons have eshipped their wool upon
the following conditions: Each man re-
ceives ticket reading: Received Of
pounds of wool and--pOunds of tags
upon the following terms: l am to be to all
expense of sacking, loading, and going to
Boston, see to the handling and grading of
the wool, for a commission of one cent per
pound. Upon which have advanced
Dollars upon which am to receive six per
cent per annum. M. B. Divine" and were
obliged to sign the following stub or con-
tract: 81 have this day delivered to M. B.
Divine-pounds of wool and--pounds of
tags which he is to ship for me to market on
the following terms: said M. b. Divine is to
be to all expense of sacking, loading on cars
and going to Boston, see to handling and
grading of the wool, for commission of one
cent per pound, upon which have received
an advance of-Dollars, for which /
agree to pay interest at six per cent per an
num-"
Each farmers wool was weighed and the
buck feeces and tags deducted and they
then received upon the straight wool an ad-
vance OF "a cents per pound upon which
they signed the above contract to pay six
per cent interest with the expectations Of re-
turn in about ninety days. The question of
freights does not seem to appear in the con-
tract so that which of the parties is to be to
that expense we are unable to say but hope
they have an understanding that Divine is
TO be to that expense too. We hope the
farmers best expectations may be fully real

PIONEER Picnic. AS previously an
nounced, the "Old Settlers" assembled at
Phillips grove in Bancroft. Saturday 2sth
inst. At IL IN. President Parkill called
the meeting to order, when no business APP
pearing, adjournment was had for dinner.
The good people of Bancroft had provided
tables, which were now spread with eat
ables and delicacies of the season, to which
the officials, speakers and musicians were
invited. Families coming from distance,
and old acquaintances grouped together in
small knots were seated promiscuOusly
throughout the grove. Tea, coffee and
lemonade were also provided, which could
be had for the asking, and added much to
the luxury and enjoyment of the picnic
The weather was excessively warm, but
with the moderate use of fans, and the slight
breeze blowing, the temperature of the grove
was made passibly comfortable. At 1880 the
President again called the assemblage to
order. Rev. A. T. Waterman offered
prayer. Prof. Hudson Sheldon of Bancroft
started auspiciOusly on the welcoming ad-
dress, but had not proceeded far when he
was interrupted by the elements. The
clouds grew suddenly black, the lightning
flashed, the winds blew and the rain be-
gan to pour and every one started for
place of safety. After the storm subsidized,
at the ringing of the bell, as many of the
audience as could be accommodated re-assem-
bled at the M. 4. church. After singing
by the Bancroft choir, Miss Minnie Nc
Arthur, being introduced by the President,
recited one of her latest and choicest poems.
This was followed by Gov. Luce's address
delivered in his happy forcible manner and
giving universal satisfaction. Miss Near
thur again being called for repeated the
favOrite poem 'Uncle Ieke and the Brindle
Cow" This brought down the house and
closed the exercises for the day. The at
tendance on this occasion was the largest
for number of years, IL not the largest
since the organization of the society, and
had 1t not been for the storm, 1t would have
proven one of the most pleasant and enjoy
able OF picnics.

BRIDGEPORT.

Our village Council has been receiving
some merited praise lately on account Of
procuring for the town excellent light and
also in watching the interest of our people
in the matter OF the construction of the
brick pavement on Bank and Morgan
streets. No sickly lights, such as Martins
Ferry has, was procured by them, and no
thin curb stone was put in TO held up the
pavements and streets. Now there IS
a matter Of more Importance TO our
town than all of these things that we
understand WILL in the near future come
before council, viz The Wheeling Bridge
Company will soon present an ordinance
asking the right of way over our streets
through Aetnaeville for the purpose of run
ming their electric street cars 10 Martins
Ferry. and our people should call meet
ing and instruct our council TO grant such
Il right upon certain conditions. one con-
dition should be that the Car Company
should pave between the rails and at least
eighteen inches outside of each rail with
fire brick. Another condition should be
that said Car Company or Bridge Com
pany should assure the people here that inc
bridge located to cross at Bennett street
would be built and when.
