The ceremonies incident to Decoration
day, as held at Barratt's Chapel near
here, we're made doublY solemn by the
occurrence about the same time of the
funeral of young aud highly respected
lady of the vicinity of Bowers Beach, the
daughter of Caleb Williams, prominent
farmer of that neighborhood. She had
been in delicate health for some time
with an incurable pulmonary disease, and
lust previous to her decease arranged,
herself.all the details of her funeral which
were scrupulously carried out in pursu-
ance of her instructions. There was
large concourse of relatives and friends
in attendance. Decoration Day at "Old
Barratt's is not confined alone to the gar
landing of the mounds of the gallant he
roes of the war. but the day brings to this
old historic spot many ladies who came
for miles in carriages to perform the low
ing tribute OF
Bringing flowers pale aOwers, Ger the bier to shed
crown for the brows OF the early dead.
on last Sunday afternoon our minister,
Rev. Mr. Maxwell, drove up to Leipsic to
preach the evening sermon on the Occa-
sion of the dedication of the new NJ. E.
Church at that place. We he'd no preach
ing on Sunday evening; but the services
consisted of Bible readings and COM
ments by a Mr.. Pitt of Easton.
The work of placing a valuation upon

to visit each farm and parcel Of real es-
tate and carefully determine and esti-
mate its value for the purpose Of an ami
cable aud equitable division thereof be-
tween the three benehciaries of the large
estate. There are nineteen or twenty
farms and as many dwellings and lots
the latter of which are located mostly in

A sermon was preached in the Avenue
NJ. E Church last Sunday morning by
Rev. Robert Watt, to the Torbert Guards
and members of Garfield Post-both in
uniform. It was an able and apprOpri-
ate discourse. There are a few persons
who object to sermons for this purpose
and suce occasions, but they are only a
few, and, are of the class that believe only
those will go to heaven who walk in ex-
actly the same narrow-minded track
which they pursue-forgetting, that on
such occasions, there is always one or
more, who are brought into the church
and hear a sermon, who have not been
brought under church influence for year
perhaps more, but the true church of
Christ knows no isms or creeds-Rll are

Model Locomotive Engines

The Baltimore & OHIO Railroad
has Just placed in service ON its Chi
cago Division three new passenger
engines, built at the Baldwin Loco
motive Works, after new designs
furnished by the Geul Superintend-
ent of Motive Power of the B. & o.
Company. The engines weigh ll3,
900 pounds, have driving wheels six
feet six inches in diameter, cylinders
10 by "a inches, and are without
doubt the finest passenger lOcOmO-
tives running into the City of Chi
cago to day. Companions of these
new engines have developed wonder
ful power and speed in hauling the
famous Royal Blue Line trains which
run between New York, Philadelphia,
Baltimore and Washington, over the
Philadelphia division of the B. & o.
Railroad. The B. & o. has added
over forty new, high class engines
to its motive power equipment within
the last sixty days, and others are
under construction. While constantly
adding engines of approved design
and highest grade to its motive
power and passenger coaches Of Pull
man standard to its rolling stock,
the B. & o. is also expanding large
amounts for additional second aud
third tracks and sidings, and i'm
proved facilities at terminal points.
By the time the Worlds Fair is
opened for the reception of visitors
the B. & o. will be we'll equipped to
handle, expeditiOusly, the large vol
ume of passenger traffic which will
naturally seek this picturesque route
from the Atlantic seaboard to Chi
cago.
