lated the young ladies, that so many of
them had persevered to the end of the
course. while the boys had fallen by the
way. He complimented the good sense
which prompted the class to wear simple
calico frocks-though here he erred
slightly, as only half the class were thus
unadorned. The diplomas were then
presented, and the class had achieved its
goal. Dr. Robert Alexander pronounced
the benediction, and the class stood up
in a sweet and blushing line to be shaken
hands with, and kissed by the more effu-
sive in cOngratulation of their success.
Misses Mary shannon and Gertrude
Darrah were much interrupted by a
strong lunged babe, which showed its
disapproyal of the heat and of its unac-
custOmed absence from the cradle by
noisy cries. The speakers were not, how
ever, SO much incOmmoded as the hear
ers, and went right on until the wailing
youngster was carried out and cOmforted
to slumber. The irrepressible boys also
showed that they were yet alive by COM
ing in at the windows, and starting
bursts of uproar at inOpportune times.
Otherwise nothing but the heat marred
the occasion with unpleasant features.
The music was furnished by Meister's
Orchestra, of Bridgeport, and was freely
furnished throughout the evening. The
effect was enlivening and the selections
were excellent, and well executed.

Lightning Proof.

Merritt Lodge had fine young horse
killed by lightning while standing in the
open field, on Friday last. Your CORES
pOndent was standing within about forty
steps distance, and is perhaps the only
man in Belmont county who ever saw
horse killed by lightning. There was a
flash, a peculiar sensation, an intense
light, dead horse, and a white one
whilring around as though stung with
bees, and in about three second all was
over. The accident occurred at 2O5 P NJ,

YOUTH AND BEAUTY
Meet and Mingle at the Senior Clas
Reception.

Meet and Mingle at the Senior Glass
Reception.
The reception given Friday night by
the Juniors of the High School to the
class which was graduated the preceding
evening, expected to be full of pleasure
to those participating, and fully justified
all anticipations. A large number of
persons were present-townpeople and
relatives and friends from distance, of
the two classes. At about $50 Prof
Killmeyer opened the piano, attached his
famous bells to his right foot, and played
a march, which set the people to march
ing and talking in accord with its lively
time. The number of persons present
was so large and they were all so imbued
with the spirit of goodwill, and suffused
with smiles, that the monotony of the
amusement was not noticed. 1t was i'm
possible for one to get quite around and
have a word with all acquaiutanceS even,
to say nothing of meeting the numer-
Gus nice looking strangers. The musi-
clan soon branched out into his well
known waltzes, and the young folks
toes tapped time on the tiles inyoluntar
lily, as they sadly thought of such music
being wasted for mere walking. Great
pressure was indeed brought to bear to
obtain permission to dance, but the Ju-
niors had entered into solemn, iron
bound compact not to allow it, and they
stuck by the nomination of
their bond, although they were weli-nigh
carried away when the dreaming, glid-
ing notes of Auf Widersehen reused the
feeling and recollection of every one who
could dance.
Caterer Wilson had arranged long ia
bles in the vestibule, and served delicious
cake and cream. At midnight the
throng began to thin out, and the more
elderly and staid having gone, another
effort was made to give the dance its in
nings, but the attempt was without avail.
By one o'clock the hall was deserted,
nothing remaining but the janitor turn
ing out the lights, the scattered petals of
roses, whole rose here and there tram
pied and wilted, forgotten fans on chairs I,
the perfume of flowers struggling with
that of fresh lighted cigars, and the hol-
low, tired loneliness of the banquet room
of its gay and laughing people.

Case was Dropped.

The village of Centerville, in Smith
township, was well filled with people on
Friday. They expected to hear a sensa
tional case tried in Squire Jackson's
court. Mrs. Samuel Hines, of near
Jacobsburgh, had brought suit against
Mack Bennett, of that neighborhood, on
the charge of abduction. 1t has been
stated in this column that Mrs. Hines
was in this city on Wednesday in search
of her daughter, Mary Bell Ramsey,
whom she said had elOped with Mack
Bennett. She found her daughter and
brought suit against Bennett, expecting
to prove that he had tried to entice her
girl into a house of ill-fame in this city.
Constable Baugh and Officer O'Malley,
of this city, were the witnesses depended
upon to prove the charge, but when they
putin an appearance and were questioned
by the prosecution, they had no knowl-
edge of an object of that kind. Conse-
quently the case was dropped and young
Bennett was cquitted.-Register.

Council.

Considerable interest attached to the
meeting of Council Monday evening,
from the fact that the question of sub
mitting the liquor ordinance again to the
vote of the people, was to be decided.
BY an unanimous vote the petition ask
ing for vote was laid on the table. This
did away with the necessity for action on
the counter petition, which was signed
by rs voters and about 125 women, but
this document was also laid on the table.
The committee on lights reported that
they could not make any contract for all
additional building asked for at the elec
tric light plant, at the stated price.
The matter brought before Council by
Dr. Alexander, of placing stone in the
alley between the Court house and Camp
bells stable. was referred to the commit
tee on streets and roads.
Bills to the amount of $500 were ap-
proved and ordered paid. Other bills
were refused, and referred to proper
committees for investigation.

Jersey Cattle Sale.

l.. P. Bailey held his fifth annual sale
of Jersey cattle, at his stock farm neal
the Children's Home, Thursday. A large
number of buyers from West Va, ,Pennsyl-
vania and Ohio, were present, in addition
to those from near by points. About sixty
head of fine stock were sold at prices
ranging from $40 to $l60. The sale ag-
gregated over $4,000.
All visitors were handsomely enter,
tanned at the hospitable home of Mr.. Bal
ley, and prOfusely treated to delicious
iced buttermilk, and other creamery and
dairy dainties. These annual sales
through Mr.. Bailey's energy and knowl
edge of his business, are fast becoming
events of wide Importance.

SEVERAL SHORT STORIES.
Concert by the Presbyterian Church
Choir.
An Excellent Musicale by Home Talent
Preparation for a Fourth Cele-
bration Other Items.

The Concert given at the Presbyterian
church Tuesday evening was unfortu
nately interfered with by the rain, though
the attendance was good. The outside
talent was well received. Miss Sellars
of Bellaire, captured the audience, anc
was recalled after each of her numbers
Her selections were good, and her simple
expressive, unaffected manner easily Won
all hearts. Everyone will be glad to heal
her again. Prof. Whitley succeeded vel
with the Raven. The Professors voice
and appearance are well adapted for thi:
tragical selection, and he brought out
much unsuspected meaning from the
gloomy lines.
The choir individually and collectively
gave thoroughly high class and enjoy
able concert. Each number was well
worked up. The choruses we're in perfect
unison and time. Mr.. and Mrs. Lucas
duet was soft, sweet, and struck the
audiences fancy The trio by Mrs. Blair
and the Misses Anderson was simple and
plaintive, reminding one of the woodland
and flowers.
The singing of Messrs. Kirk, Gilmore
and Archer was up to their usual excel
lent standard. Mr. Archer's bass solo,
with the chorus in the distance, was es-
pecially well liked. as also Mr.. Kirk
True as Steel" 'Zerita" was beautiful
selection well sung by Miss Ida Ander
son, accompanied at the piano by Miss
Lizzie Kennon, and was encored. The
Misses Anderson's duet singing was as
usual sweet and enjoy able. The accom-
panists, Misses Lizzie Kennon and
Blanche Grove, were perfect, and added
much to the success of the concert. Miss
Grove and her pupil, Miss Mamie
Mitchell, rendered ably an instrumental
duet, and Misses Kennon and Mamie
Grove played together with exquisite
precision and expression selection from
Melnott's Ii Trovatore.
The Everett piano used on this occasion
was kindly furnished by G. j. LaRoche,
of Bellaire.
The entertainment was a decided sue
cess, and shows that there is the best of
musical perception in this place, and that
persistent practice will work up concert
which need not fear comparison with
amateur talent anywhere, and which is
far better than much of the So-called
professional.

Buried Their Baby Alive.

A couple of Italians, a man and woman,
were arrested at West Wheeling by Off
GERS from GAINESVILLE on Sunday charged
with the inhuman crime of burying their
baby alive. The couple were seen dig

men on the railroad near GAINESVILLE, and
curiosity prompting, some of the men
Investigated and fOuni the baby nearly
smothered, but after some work it was
resuscitated. The authorities being no

The couple did not want to be bothered
with the baby and took this means to
dispose of it. They were taken back to
GAINESVILLE to answer for their crime.

AN AGED DIPLOMA
Enclosed in a Tin Box-It Defies Time q
RayageS.

Enclosed
Ravages.
The family of j. w. Shannon, Esq, of
this place, have in their possession a
priced relic in the shape of the only dl-
ploma ever issued from the old Seminary
that fiourished at this place over fifty
years ago. 1t was given to Miss Eliza
beth Ann Eyer, a young lady who is re-
membered by our older citizens for her
beauty, wit and talent. 1t bears date OF
March 18th, 1871, and is signed by
Franklin II. Brooks and Sarah Il. Brooks.
1t certifies that Miss Eyer had completed
the studies necessary for graduation, and
that her connection with the institution
is therefore dissolved. 1t continues,
Attended by the kind wishes of her
Teachers, may her life adOrn her sex,
meet the appreciation of her Divine Ben
efactor and her own approving con-
science" The document is not so elab0-
rate as those of to-day. 1t is simply
written without flourish. The only at
tempt at ornamentation consists of two
long pale blue streamers of ribbon. 1t
has been well preserved in a tin box, and
the ribbons fiutter out the perfume OF
forgotten commencements. Miss Eyer
was unhappily attacked by consumption,
and died but short time after her grad !
uation.
The st. Clairsville Female Seminary
was located in the building, now the res
idence of John T. Troll. As far back as
the memory of the oldest reaches the site
of the structure was precipitOus knoll.
crowned by log cabin. Between '26
and %, DIR. Thomas Carroll, successful
Quaker physician, bought the place and"
erected the present building in the days,
'3S Professor Brooks secured the place,
and started the Seminary for ladies, at
the same time managing an Academy
for boys, located on the hill west of town
which is still known as Institute Hill"
For several years the Seminary was pros
porous, most of the now older women of
this vicinity having been in attendance.
At that time the surroundings were quite
different from their present appearance.
Across the street stood Faris' cabinet
shop; up ON the corner was the ancient
hostelry, then in the control of Michael
Grove. Two flourishing general stores
were located on the same side of the
street, between the Seminary and the
corner.
The Seminary died from lack of sup
port The fact that there was such an
institution at this place is a lesson to our
people to-day. We ought to have school
of higher grade here now. A few years
back, owing to apathy and parsimony we
lost one opportunity for making the
town, by locating here Franklin College
Such a move would have made both the
college and the town. Without public
spirit, united action and generosity no
town can prosper.

An Old Book.

An Almanac for the year 1869 was ex-
hibited to us few days ago, by james
Cope, of Colerain. The book has been
handed down as an heirloom and is high
ly priced by the possessor. The Alma
nae is substantially bound in leather and
includes memorandum pages, and was
used by the owner of that day in keep
ing his personal accounts. Unlike the
almanac's of the present day, it contains
no patent medicine testimonials nor
was it medium for working off jokes OF
doubtful merit The printing is in col
ors-red and black, and is remarkably
well preserved. The writing is evidently
as legible as the day it was penned. The
book was printed in England.

About Roads.

A drive of twenty or thirty miles
through the northern part of the county
last week was sufficient to convince one
that there is something radically wrong
with our roads, We do not mean that
this proposition has been disputed, but
if any one is opposed to road improve
ment let him take a promiscuous drive
across the country and on his return he
will experience a change of heart. The
roads are simply execrable and if our
county is to advance in wealth and civ
ilzation our roads must at least be made

FOR A GLORIOUS FOURTH.
Meeting of Those in Favor-Committees
Be Generous.

Meeting of Those in Favor-Committees
Be Generous.
A meeting of those interested in pre-
pairing for a Fourth of July celebration
at this place, was held at the Mayors of
flee, Tuesday evening. A good attend
ance of workers turned out. Hon. c. L
Weems was called to the chair. 1t was
thought that nothing definite could be
decided upon until it was seen what finan-
cial support would be given the move
ment. A committee consisting of Messrs
Henry Adams, c. S. Frint and GOurley
Hoff,w was accordingly appointed to circu
late subscription paper. On general
arrangements the following persons were
appointed by the chair:sJ. b. Meyer, T
c. Ayers, G. S. Frint, j. A. Patterson
Geo. V. Brown, Geo. E. Steenrod and G
C. Carroll. The meeting adjourned to
meet at the same place, Saturday even
ing at 7:30.
1t is strongly recommended that the
persons who solicit subscriptions be met
in generous spirit. Only by good do
nation can the success of the entertain
ment be assured. And every penny con
tributed is sure to be returned with in
terest. We not only keep at home some
hundreds of dollars, but we bring in SOME
hundreds. We had jolly good time
last year, and were benefited financially
and otherwise, and we can do the same
thing this year. Many new and interest
ing features are suggested, and can be
secured, if citizens are generous in theiI
support.
Let everyone come to the meeting Sat
urday night at the Mayors office. Let us
