Expensive Blaze at Martins Ferry

Early Monday morning the barrel and
keg factory of Thomas Means, at the
lower end of Martins Ferry, was totally
destroyed by fire. The loss will be from
$4,000 to $4,000 covered by from $780,
$4,000 to $4,000 insurance. The facto-
ry will be rebuilt at once, and an Office is
already open to receive orders. The fire
is supposed by many to have been of in
cendiary origin, and by others to have re-
suited from sparks from passing loco
motive. The blaze was large one, and
firemen receive commendation on all
hands for their heroic efforts in controll-
ing it. The fire was the most destructive
since the burning of the Laughlin mill,
and throws out of employment 40 men.
The private papers and books of the firm
were in the safe, and were found to be
uninjured.
The c., L. and W. Railroad trestle was
burned for over hundred feet, with
four freight cars standing upon it. Tray
el over the road viii be suspended for
some time.

HALLOWEEN.
A Quiet Observance ofthe Ancient Festival
Taffy-Pullings.

A Quiet Observance ofthe Ancient Festival
Tafy-Pullings.
Although there was not the good old
town was wont to see some years back,
the young folks enjoyed themselves some
what after the usual manner. Sufficient
corn lay on the streets Sunday morning
to provide the winters food for yard
of chickens, while solid cabbages Uttered
the doorsteps and sidewalks. Everything
that was easily and quickly movable
changed its location. Signboards turned
up in unexpected places. Carts, small
wagons and other vehicles were run off,
and more or less smashed. In some parts
of town the youths turned out the lamps,
the better to elude the vigilance of Mar
shal Martin and his aides. No wanton
destruction was indulged in, however,
and citizens found their gates and other
articles next day somewhere in the neigh
borhoOd of their proper places. A neat
rail fence was constructed across the road
near Hon. A T. McKelvey's residence,
preventing that gentleman from getting
to church next morning until he had re-
moved it.
A delightful talfy-pulling was enjoyed
by party of young folks at the home of
Miss Bertha Hunt
Miss Bert Robinson entertained some
of her young friends in a similar man.

Guernsey Giants.

Col W. o. Robinson arrived here last
Saturday from California, and is now
visiting with his wife at his father-in-
laws, DR.. j. II. Chapman, in Knox town
ship. He closed the season with Sells
circus in California, declining an offer
of $50 of an advance per week to accom-
pany the show to Australia. He stands
eight feet high in his shoes, A brother
of the same height went on the trip to
Australia, sailing from San Francisco
last Saturday. The other tall brother

Knoxville, Iowa. The trio were natives
of Guernsey county. They formerly
travelled with Barnum.-G Guernsey Times.

public treasury, and employs 300 Italians
at dollar day. This large sum he gets
back, not by finds of coin, bits of jewelry
and other valuable articles, as one might
suppose, but by collecting and using alb
solute refuse. The piles of stuff show up
picturesquely. Bottles make one pile,
and they are sold to bottling agents to be
used again. Old shoes are sold to cob
blers, or if past cobbling the leather is
worked up into "leatherette" for decora-
tive purposes. Rags and paper, no mat
ter how filthy, are sold to paper makers.
Bones make particularly disgusting
pile. They are burned and pulyerized,
and are used for refining sugar or enrich
ing the soil of market gardens. Abso-
lutely nothing is wasted.

The growth in the number of Jews in
New York has been enormous. About
fifty years ago, the small number of ma
tive-born and English Hebrews began to
be increased by German immigration,
which continued until 1851. Afterward
this stream was increased by arrivals
from other parts of Europe. The recent
inpouring from Russia has more than
doubled the Jewish population in ten
years. That population now numbers at
least 22oOOO. There are nearly fifty syn
agogues, fully one-half of which number
have large congregations and costly edi-
fees. This feast of Atonement shows
most clearly the number and varied char
acter of the New York Hebrews. The
closed stores on Broadway, and the ave
nues, the crowds of people going to and
from synagogues, the absence of notable
and influential men from the exchanges.
the business stagnation in retail and
wholesale trade, often on the busiest day
of the week, tell suggestive story. All
classes publicly participate in the fast
rich and poor. Both uptown and down.
town there are evidences of the celebra-
tion of the fast. JOHN FORD.

At Independence, Iowa, a few days
ago, horse belonging to Frank Powers
was put upon the track in sulky and
made record of 2:1S. Afterwards, to
saddle, he made record of 2:12. This
places Franks horse in the $4,000 class
of horses. We hope to be able to give a

The LIGHT In Viauu

We will probably have an electric light
among other blessings to be thankful for,
on Thanksgiving Day. The poles and
wires are all up. The engine house is
nearly completed, and the work is pro-
crossing as rapidly as large force of
men can push it. From the top to with
in six feet of the ground the poles have
been painted white. For we know not
what, unless it be to relieve the mono tony,
the lower six feet are to be painted black.

This would make his majority about 600,

cent run and deserves congratulation.
