The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1891-12-25

last week, Rev. Geo. ". Kepler de-
livered his sermon to young men
on Sunday night. The reverend
gentleman chose for his text the
following: 81 have written unto
you, young men, because We are
strong" which is found in l John,
part of the 18th verse. The church
was very comfortably filled and he
had the exclusive attention of the
audience for nearly an hour.
Much annoyance has heretofore
been caused to ladies attending the
Catholic Fair in Offutt's Hall by
youngsters of low degree, stand
ing at the head Of the stairway.
Ladies in order to enter the Hall
have been obliged to run the
gauntlet. We hear that the COM
mittee in charge of the Fair, which
will open on next Friday night,
will endeavor to stop this nuisance.

The Assembly Herald, Winfield,
Kansas, has these pleasant words
to say of one of our citizens 81. A.
Rudisill, we'll known in Kansas as
the secretary of the Topeka Assem-
bly,, has accepted the position as
general manager at Mountain Lake
Park, Md, and has removed to his
field of work and assumed the duties

be congratulated on securing so
earnest worker and experienced a

We noticed in the Commercial
not long since, that Albert Keim is
reelected to the office of Clerk of
Courts in Gage county, Neb. We
are glad to hear that another Grants
vile lad has been chosen to fill a
position of trust and honor. MIR.
keim was a prominent spirit here
years ago, and he could doubtless
recall some interesting events of
this place. --Grantsville Cor. Mey-

Here is bit of yard wide wisdom
from the Chicago Inter Ocean Of
the reader wants to settle in wide
awake community all he has to do
is to look at the local newspapers.
A wideawake, well-suported home
newspaper is always associated with
good schools, churches, active bust
ness, and intelligent people. 1t
never fails. No business man or
pioneer in any community makes
any better investment than in the
dollars he gives to the support of a
good home newspaper
