There are some small towns in Ohio
which have historical characters
among their people. Over in Dell
Roy Carroll county, there is an old gen
tleman named Stoody and his wife, who
are the Oldest married couple in the
State. Neither of them has the usual
infirmities of age. He has always voted
the Democratic ticket. Mrs. Ada Lee
is the only American woman who speaks
the Bengal language, spoken by mill
ions of people in India. Samuel Long
drove an OK team with load of wool
into Harper,s Ferry the morning John
Brown made his famous raid upon that
historic town and stood guard at the
Long bridge until the execution.

acres fenced in and the inclosure
stocked with skunks and is realizing Il

peculiarities of the village of Oceolct,
Wyandot county, are that it has about
enc hundred and fifty inhabitants, and,

while there is but one bachelor and
one widOwer in the community, These
two seem to be happy but evince no
desire toget married in town where
the mortality is so alarmiDgly large
among the married men. Another
peculiarity concerns the doctors. There
are three in the hamlet and each one is
blind in one eye. II there's another
town of its size that can match these
peculiarities, now's the time to win
fame by making it known. Wiltshire.

OUR VALIANT. PETER.
An Important Arrest In Which Constable
BucShouso Covers Himself With
GLORY

While some of the county papers
have been filed with the deeds OF dar-
ing and shrewd detective work done by
Sheriff Bryant they have failed to
record the fact that right here in Per-
rysburg we have an officer who is will
ing to almost walk into the very jaws
of death while in the performance OF
his duty.
Sometime ago n person resembling
n man in form was guilty OF an act that
should forever Danish him from the
society OF his fellow beings, the par
| ticulars of which are unfit for publica-
tion In Il respectable newspaper.
The party Emanual Duhamuel,
living in the vicinity of Bowling,
knowing that warrant for his arrest
had been issued from Squire j. NJ.
Browns court, had made the statement
that no one could arrest him; that he
slept with revoies- in each hand,
and was ready to make himself terror
If interfercd with.
The warrant was placed in the hands
of Constable Peter Buckhouse who was
made acquainted with the ferociousness
of the criminal, but Petors 2l5 pounds
avoirdupois, was not badly scared.
He bucl1led on his armor, assured him
self OF the righteousness ofS the UNDER
taking and quietly stole out to the
house of the saragesbeing he loaged to
gather in.
Twas midnight. and the sun was
rapidly working his way around the
other side of mother earth, while our
Peter, quietly awaited his coming
to brighten the portion OF
this hemisphere known throughout
the wide wide world as Wood county;
as the first streaks shown up in
the East, giving hope of the dawning
of new day, Peter buckled his belt
one notch tighter, well knowing that
his game would soon be in sight,and as
the healthy barn yard rooster flew upon
the feMce and gave his first salutation
to the rosy morn, young Duhamuel was
seen to enter barn and commence to
curry a horse.
Drawing himself up to his full height
of 3 feet and inches, Peter rushed
into the barn and before the savage foe
could realize the situation Constable
Buckhouse had gathered him in, load
ed him up in a wheelbarrow and was
wheeling him off to the Court OF Squire
Brown where he was bound over to
Common Pleas Court for trial.
Talk about detectives. Why if our
Peter had been sent down to Home
stead, the fight would have been set
tied long ago. The Lizzie Borden case
would have been settled long since,
and Jack the Ripper would have
been ripped up the back before he
could have left England. Perrysburg
and Peter Buckhouse against the
world.

"Uncle Dam Rice, the famous old
eircus clown. has offered tract of land
in Kentucky, which he says is worth
$3.50, 600, as a bet that Cleveland will
be elected against 100000 to be put up
in favor of Harrison.-Ex.
There's nothing strange about such
actions when it is remembered that
Dan Rice is clown and has been maxi
ing n fool of himself all through life.

1t is exceedingly unpleasant for n
business man to send bills or ask any
person for money. If those indebted
would call and pay, or send the money,
they would add something to the pleas
ure of their lives. 1t would only require
a few minutes from each person to call
and settle, but just think how much
time and trouble the man of business
has in calling upon several hundreds
of persons for the adjustment of small
accounts.

Every town has its advantages and
should make the most of them. One
man cannot make u town. The news
paper cannot do it. But one man or a
newspaper, with the help of the wide
awake men OF the place all pulling to-
gether, cnn make wide difference in
place. Every man who succeeds in a
town is n help to it. The more money
he makes, If he spends it, all the better
for the community. The larger Dasi-
ness he holds up, the more he adver-
tises, the more attention is called to
the town. A man cannot build up an
honorable business in town without
helping the town. A town cannot
build up without helping the country.
The interest OF one isthe interest of all.
