AT the regular meeting of the Board
of Education on Thursday evening last,
|. N. Saddler was unanimously elected
Superintendent for the coming year.
BY this action of the board they
have given to Perrysburg superin-
tendent whom the people unanimously
desire to have occupy the position.
Mr.. Saddler has worked diligently and
intelligently to have the Perrysburg
schools kept up with the best graded
schools in the country and the name
OF our school is in consequence second
TO none. AS IN educator Mr.. Saddler
is not eXcelled by any in the State,
and by appointment to the position
our schools have the advantage of one
who combines ambition, fine educa-
ton, ability and experience as an
instructor, Il pleasing disposition, and
one calculated to inspire the pupils
with strong desire to improve the
happy moments of youth in attaining
an education. To this action of the
board the people heartily say amen.
All the old teachers were reelected
except in the unclassificd school, and
the janitor, which, owing to the late
ness of the hour were left over until
the next meeting.

Bro. Brewer of the Sentinel was in
town Wednesday, and was profuse in
his praises of our beautiful town, and
being in good humor and taking a
notion TO be truthful, remarked that
with one or two factories here to enliven
business there is no town on earth that
would compare with Perrysburg. He
also remarked that there was no doubt
that this place would, ere long, contain
u number Of manufacturing establish
ments. That factories were unable to
procure suitable sites in the cities near
railroads, and that Perrysburg offered
shipping facilities (both rail and water
that were unequalled by any inland
town; that our drainage is excellent,
our water supply ample, and that there
is nothing lacking to make this the
best town for factories in the State.
OF course he probably will not say so
in his paper, however.

1ANcLED BY THE CARS
A Young Man named Jnmcs johnson,
Killed at Stony Ridge.

On Sunday last, n young man by The
name of James johnson, about 20 years
of age, while attempting to board q
train at Stony Ridge, Wood County
by some means, fell under the cars and
literally cut to pieces by the wheels
His legs were cut in twain in two
places, and the wheels passed over him
in such manner as to dlsembowcl him.
The train was south bound and
passed the Ridge at about 1890 midday,
and was composed of about 40 freight
cars. The young man attempted to
| get on the fifth car back of the engine
and the balance of the long train
passed over the unfortunate mans body.
a party of little boys were at play a
short distance away and were the only
spectators to the horrible sight. and
being frightened they hardly knew
what to do but started for the depot
gave the alarm, and the crowd soon
gathered and took care of the lifclcss
remains. When picked up the young
mans left hand claspcd tightly II
splinter off of one of the railroad ties.
Letters found in the pockets indicat-
ed that he was from Pemberville, and
in these letters informations was found
which gave rise to the belief that he
was going to that place to purchase
some clothing.
DR.. Noble kindly prepared the
remains for burial and photograph
was taken Of the young man to be used
for identification.
y Later.-Our correspondent says:
The body was searched and papers
found proving him to be James John
son of Gallipolis, o., who had been
temporarily residing with an uncle at
Pemberville, o.,
The body was removed to Rcifert' s
hall where it was prepared for inter-
ment. His uncle was notified and
came down at o'clock p. III. and re-
moved the body to Pembcrville, o.,
from whence it will be taken to CALI
polls, o., for burial.

A forcible example of the folly
which many young men are not only
tempted with, but which many are
dabbling into, is brought to light in
the sad misfortune which has befallen
William Cook, Police Clerk of the city
of Toledo.
In investigating affairs of city
government, Mayor Emmicli discovered
shortages in Cooks accounts, and
swore out warrant charging Cook
with embezzlement of $4,000. Further
investigation proved the Mayor to be
correct and Cook has since confessed to
shortage amounting to much more
than the amount indicated by the
Mayor. Mr.. Cook was placed under
arrest and his bail fixed at $40, 900 but
being unable to procure it he has been
compelled to be locked up in the police
station.
Mr.. Cook is Il young man who has
been raised in first class society in
Toledo; his father was the head mem
Der OF the high toned icwelry establish
ment of H. Il. Cook and Co. which
failed some years ago. Young Cook
was given a good education, was the
first lieutenant IN the celebrated
Toledo Cadets; was petted and gushed
over by society young ladies and was
considered almost "out of sight" No
young man in the city, perhaps, had
better opportunity to make some
thing of himself than he had. He mar
ried one of the daughters of Gen. p. S.
Slevin, who in her childhood days, was
so well known in Perrysburg where
she was born. In his marriage he had
none other than the best of influence
thrown around him, so he cannot, like
many another, lay his misfortune to an
unhappy marriage.
sum the matter up, we have before
the public young man whose opportur-
tiles from the cradle to the present
day, could not have been better than
his, yet throwing aside all this, un-
needing the earnest and oft repeated
admonitions of loving friends, paying
no attention to the daily examples of
ruined lives and wrecked fortunes
through gaming and chance, this
young man clung to the fool desire to
win by chance, by speculation, or to tie
more plain, by gambling, that damnable
practice which is daily leading SO many
OF our men, young and old, to crime
and ruin, and has at last ruined him
self, his loving wife, and brought the
blush OF shame TO the cheek of friends
and relatives, by his own folly. If he
alone could suffer, the crime would not
be so great, but the thought that inno-
cent ones must be dragged down With
him is the worst feature of his sin.
AT the present writing, nothing
definite is known as to the outcome of
the case, but there is not much chance
OF his escaping the penitentiary.
The JOURNAL calls especial atten-
tion to this case for purpose, and
that purpose is because there are
within our own town young men who
are playing with the same fire which
burnt young Cook, and we wish to call
their attention to this example of what
may possibly result from playing with
dangerous instrument.

TOWNSHIP TAXES.
Collector Dugan Seems TO Regard
Them as Private Business.

This morning asked County Collector
Dugan what townships were in arrears
with their taxes. to make it necessary for
the Freeholders TO borrow $4,000 on a
six months temporary loan bond, bear
ing five per cent. interest.
The old gentleman looked at me over
his spectacles for momeut, and then in
a peppery manner repiied,-'It is lone
OF your c. G-n business"
Imildly protested that township money
was public money, and the public.
thought, had right to know If there were
any arrearages.
"You have no more right TO ask me how
much the townships owe than to ask how
much q private citizen may owe me. Any
how, there can not be any arrearages
until November so, for the townships
have until then to pay up don't sup
pose the Freeholders will use one cent Of
this money raised on the loan"
Then you decline TO make known the
amounts due the county from the town
shipsT
Yes; It is nobody's business. The
taxes will be paid as they have always
been during the past six years. / am the
Collector and will get the money"
next called on John BOYD. Clerk OF
the Board Of Freeholders. He said the
loan of $50, 900 was made as a precau ton
against the failure of any townships
TO pay up their taxes. Mr.. Boyd said
this was done every year. but he thought
it would not be necessary to spend one
cent of the money.
