The National Memorial Service.

Napoleon behttingly observed decoration
day. The parade formed on Washington
street, the 18th Regiment Band, Company F,
o. N. g., Drum Corps, Choate Post, Women's
Relief Corps and citizens in carriages and on
foot, being in line.
After reaching Glenwood Cemetery the
Choate Post held services according to their
ritual, followed by music by the band
''There's land that is fairer than day."
The orator of the day, Hon. VIM. A. Nor.
ton was introduced by Mayor Meekison. His
speech was short but of that nature in which
people, and especially Grand Army men, de-
light.
He was from Michigan, but that did not
prevent him giving Ohio her Just due in her
share of quelling the rebellion-of producing
more than her quota in all prior ages-se-
cession was born, treason buried and peace
restored.
He made clear the gigantic magnitude of
the war, of the two billions expenditure. the
two thousand engagements exclusive of skir-
mishes, the loss of 100000 men in the field
and at one time, one million, five hundred
thousand men actually engaged.
The Woman's Belief Corps received q Dor
ton of his attention as the noblest auxiliary
the world has known.
After the address the parade was formed
and wended its way back to the city to
solemn martial music by the drum corps,
and national airs by the band.

The Bronridge Theatre Company.

The company filled weeks engagement
at the Opera House, closing Saturday night.
The company, taking everything into con-
sideration, is far above the average and their
repertoire gave entire satisfaction, each
night finding large crowd in the audience
rsom of the Opera House. Mr.. Harry
Bronbridge, manager and proprietor, is an
admirable character actor with an excellent
tenor, while Miss Alice Kemp is truly ver-
satile actress of rare ability and possesses
a soprano that harmonizes beautifully with
the tenor. Little Florinne is perhaps the
youngest actress ever before the foot-lights.
yet she played her roles with perfection
that repeatedly brought the whole house to
her side with rounds Of applause. Although
not quite seven years of age she sings and
dances with an excellency that is surprising.
W. A. Richmond, asst manager and actor
contributes his share to making the COM
pany the success 1t is. The troupe will play
here again in the Fall.

Are You Careful?

There is nothing in which dollars worth
will add so much beauty to your house or any
piece of furniture as paint and varnish. And
are you careful when you buy to get the very
best, most durable and at the same time the
cheapest which can be had. We recommend
everybody to 60 to Saur & BalsIey's Drug and
Paint Store, before they buy, to investigate
their stock and their prices. A very good
way is, when you see a house or barn nicely
painted, to inquire of the man what kind of
paint he used, where he bought it, how it is
wearing and if he is we'll satisfied or not.
This plan would generally be fair guide and
would assist you somewhat in making good
selection. Saur & Balsley take pride in rec
ommending the Masury Rail Road Paints and
guarantee them to give satisfaction in every
particular and to be as cheap as any first class
paint sold.

The Common Pleas Court Will Settle
the Case.

A knock-down- -and-drag out fight disturbed
the peaceful slumbers of Mcclure the 18th
inst. which was followed by arrest, trial before
that dignitary--a Justice of the Peace-a
transcript filed in the Probate Court Monday,
and the case finally given into the hands of
the Common Pleas Court.
Itseems that there has been sort of feud ex-
isting between Jacob Snyder and one Kinney
on account of an alleged insult of the latter
to Snyder's sister. Dave Snyder, q brother,
donned his war habilaments and, with Kin
ney, engaged in several rounds but the two
were separated. Monday evening Kinney came
to the p. of I. Hall with the intention of join
ing the organization when, according to the
given sever drubbing. The above result
followed and its settlement is deferred until

schools with the respect and love of the en-
tire school and splendid reputation. The
board were sorry to lose her from the work,
but as one of the conditions in her application
was an increase of ten dollars per month, the

increasing the expenses of the school at pres
ent.-Delta atlas.
And this board, like great many others.
will find at the expense of good schools, that
it is not desirable commodity to harbo1
this feeling" It doesn't pay to change
teachers even though the incumbent be but
mediocre, as at least two months of the year il
lost in becoming familiar with the duties OF
the school room and habits of the people
but when a teacher. as the above squib as
serts, has made her labor success. a few
dollars should not prove barrier against
unemployment. The Delta board in COM
mon with many others is laboring under an
affection that only experience will cure and
