what Rules The world.

They say that man is mighty,
He governs land and sea,
He wields IL mighty scepter
Ger lesser powers that be;
But a power mightier, stronger,
Man from his throne has hurled,
''For the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rules the world
In deep, mysterious conclave,
Mid philosophic minds,
Unraveling knotty problems,
His native forte man finds;
Yet all his ''ics" and 'isms''
To heavens four winds are hurled,
'For the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rules the world"
Behold the brave commander
Staunch mid the carnage stand,
Behold the guidon dying
With his colors in his hand
Brave men they be, yet craven
When this banner is unfurled:
1.-The hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rules the world
Great statesmen govern nations,
Kings mould peoples fate,
But the unseen hand of velvet
These giants regulate.
The iron arm of fortune
With wOman's charm is purled:
''For the hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rules the world

A Count with a mighty Arm.

There are stories of strong men who
did not appear in public. A butcher
lived in South Holland who killed calves
by strangiing them. A Dutch count, in
a private entertainment, bent an iron
bar by beating it with his right hand
against his left arm, protected by a
leather bandage, bending it afterward
straight again by beating it the other
way.-Chambers Journal

Importance OF Free Reading Rooms.
american Isrdelite.

Importance of Free Reading Rooms.
We see and hear a great deal about
young men and girls too, running off or
leaving their homes without their
parents knowledge or appreciation. The
unseen and untried city has great fas-
cination for young people from the
country. Trashy novels, sensational
stories in newspapers are prolific cause of
this evil, as well as of others.
Parents and teachers should wisely
select the reading matter that goes into
the hands of their children and pupils
There should be such an abundance of
attractive reading matter in every home
that the temptation to read harmful
matter surreptitiously would be very
small indeed. This should be an easy
matter to do out of the great amount of
entertaining publications for youth. But
there are many homes where there is no
reading matter of any kind. Hence the
importance of free reading rooms.

BEATS THE RECORD.

And Gets Away With $500 in Few

And Gets Away With $500 in n Few
Months,
For several days of the past week
the town has been in q ferment
over the lofty doings of a young
girl named Hattie Ovens. She is
about 16 or II years old and and
for several years has lived and
made her home with Mr.. Mrs. Ed
Price near the depot, and was al
ways regarded by them as Il trusty
girl. For several months past she
has been spending money in the
most lavish and extravagant way
at various business places in town
buying all sorts of goods and nice
things, regardless of cost; dresses,
shoes, jewelry, flowers, carpets,
clothing, millinery goods galore
and all was of the most elegant
kind. In her gay and luxurious
career she outdone anything that
Logan has had for many day
Many of the articles she bought
she gave as generous gifts to her
friends here and elsewhere and she
took many of her purchases home
and would tell Mr.. and Mrs. Price
how cheap she had bought them,
that certain business firms were
selling goods of the kind exceed
ingly low and cheap; it is said
Mr.. and Mrs. Price on these rep
reservations gave her money to
the amount of 5000 to make further
purchases of the same kind. She
bought carpets and had them cut
in pieces, and then said they were
so cheap. For instance $35 wrap
was got for dime, a $4 pair of
shoes for so cents and other things
in like proportion. he secret as
to how all these things could be
did not develop till last Saturday,
when Mr.. and Mrs. Price who, last
fall sometime, had about S210O in
their possession accumulated by
careful attention to business, put the
money as they thought safely away
by burying it in can in the corner
of the cellar, thought they would
ses if it was all right, and to their
amazement found the money was
missing. Suspicious Of the girl
were entertained and when she
was questioned about it, she con,
fessed that she had taken the mon.
ey and had been spending it in the
manner mentioned. She showed
them where she still had $500 o
the money hid in stove pipe.
The girl was arrested and com
mitted to Jail to await the action o
the grand jury, who on inquiring
into the matter did not find any
Indictment. The girls people al
Shawnee were notified and came
and took her away. She must have
got away with over $500 while she
was having her fling.

3 days. She joined the church of
the United Brethren in early child
hood, and continued "a faithful
member of the same until death.
During her long and severe suffer-
ing she often talked of going home
and her last night on earth was so
precious as to enable her TO triumph
over death; saying to her husband
to be good and meet her in Heav-
en-. Maggie Beougher was united
in marriage to E. A. Pleukharp,
March, 1S, 1885. Their journey
along life's rugged road was not
long but harmonious. She leaves
an affectionate husband to mourn
her loss, also mother, two sisters,
three brothers and numerous rela-
tiVes.
Dearest Maggie, thou hast left us,
Here thy loss we deeply feel,
But tits God that has bereft us,
He can all our sorrows heal.
Yet again we hope to meet thee,
When the day of life is fed,
Then in heaven with Joy to gree thee,
Where no farewell tear is shed.

JUDICIAL CONVENTION.
The Democrats Fix the
Place of Holding Their
Convention at New
Lexington and the
Time Tuesday,
June 9th,
1901

At meeting of the Democratic
Judicial Committee, for the First
Subdivision of the seventh Judic-
ial District of Ohio, held at Lancas-
ter, May 2, 1891, Benz. F. Dunn of
Fairfield and G. w. Brehm of Hook
ing, were present. The Chairman
of the Perry county Democratic
Central Committee, l.. A. Dean,
wrote letter stating that the Ju-
dicial Committeeman, j. j. McGru-
der, was now resident of Column
bus, and that no one could be pres
ent from that county, and strongly
urging that the Convention be held
at New Lexington.
After some discussion, it was
agreed that the time of holding the
Convention should be on Tuesday,
June 8, 1891.
AS to the place of holding the
Convention, Mr.. Dunn favored Lam
caster and Mr.. Brehm was in favor
of Logan. After considerable dis
cussion of the matter it was agreed
to hold the Convention at New
Lexington at the time fixed afore-
said on the basis of one delegate to
each 100 votes cast for Hon Thad-
eus e. Cromley, Democratic candi-
date for Secretary of State in Nov
ember, 1890, and one delegate for
each fractional part of so or more
votes, which gives each county the
following number of votes:

The farmers of this township
are very busy in putting out their
spring crops and planting has been
done earlier than usual, but an
early spring is always sure proof
of abundant harvest.
The wheat looks well, yet such
cold weather as we are having this
9th. day of May, wearies the mind
with the thought-will the wheat
be frozen?
Some casualties of late have be-
fallenaour community. The house
of VIM. VanHorn, of Ilesboro, was
destroyed by fire short time ago,
but was very fully insured, which,
if paid, will make VIM. V. about
all o. K.
On May 2, the residence of w.
s. Barton was destroyed by fire
along with some out buildings
Though some insurance was car
ried on the property, yet it is not
enough to cover his loss. Both fires
originated by some defect in the
flues and now comes the earnest
advice to all, look closely for such
defects and save your homes.
