The discovery has been made that on
one side of the new quarter dollar there
are thirteen separate representations of
the number thirteen. 1t was probably
the intention of the designer of the new
quarter to have thirteen occur thirteen
times, but there are are few people who
have noticed this fact. There are IL stars,
13 letters in the scroll held in the eagles
beak, 13 marginal feathers in each wing,
13 tail feathers, 13 parallel lines in the

in one foot, 13 leaves OH the branch in
the other foot, and 13 letters in the words

A Swindle.

AS detailed by local correspondent
in an exchange, this is the way swindle
was worked: "a rogue came to our vii
aage last week pretending to buy horses.
He staid with one of our citizens whose
judgment as to horses is unequaled in
this vicinity. This citizen took him to
the places where horses were for sale
but none of the horses met with his WISH
Then he challenged this citizen for a
trade which was accepted. In few
days the owner of property came, proved
said horse to be stolen from him, and
took the horse" This is certainly a
warning for us MOTTO deal with strangers
in any manner until we are satisfied be-
yond rea sonable doubt that they are
honest.

Look Ont for Them

Much stealing is going on in this place
Spring chickens, fruits and vegetables
seem to be the main things taken, al
though in some instances money and
valuables in gold and silver ware turn
up missing. A. T. McKelvey lost several
hams recently; Mrs. Thos. Cochran a
pocket-book and its contents; Mrs Eliza
beth johnson large amount of canned
fruits, and visit was made at l.. P Hoff-
ner's; besides, there are many reported tC
have lost chickens. 1t is a well-kowI
fact that we have some people among us
that do not have visible means of SUP
port, and suspicion rests upon them
Some of these bright mornings physi
clan will be called to extract a load of
shot, and then a clue to some of these
depredations will be known.
On Monday night visit was made by
these providers at the residence of J. j
Harper, but were frightened away. AT
Geller & McPherson's meat shop on the
same evening lot of meat was taken.

The Great Fight.

As a matter of course, our citizens con-
denim anything so brutal as prize fight,
yet nevertheless, the New Orleans battle
was almost the sole topic of conversation
on our streets on Wednesday and Thurs
day. Before the fight nearly every one
talked Sullivan, and some few wagered
some money on the result, but on Thurs
day not Sullivan man could be found.
All united in declaring they were glad
the "big bully had been whipped" The
interest in the fight extended to all class

purchaser Any number of tickets may
be purchased.
The beans will be put into glass jar,
from peck of beans, and sealed in the

to guess. Remember, you have three
chances for the three valuable presents

chances as you like by buying number
of admission tickets. If you do not be-
lieve that these goods are worth the price

Our Country Cousin Co. played to a
small house here, Monday night. The
play is one of the thousand weak imita-
tions of The Old Homestead that have
been but on the boards since the great
success of Denmar Thompson's drama,
and as in allsuch limitations the exquisite
pathos OF tte original is left out entirely,
t. 1elicate 'hnmor brought down into
buIfoonery and ribaldry "to catch the
ears Of the groundlings," and the careful
truth woefully exaggerated and over
drawn. One or two good actors some
what relieved the dreamy mediOcrity.

Against the Workman Law.

The Board of Education of Colerain
township at their recent meeting passed
resolutions condemning the Workman
law, passed last winter. They take the
ground that the law is inimical to local
self government, and that it places the
control of the schools in the hands of dis
interested persons. They therefore de-
mand the repeal of the law. Other town.
ships in the county are taking like ac-
ton. 1t is hard to tell why such law
was ever enacted, and to secure its re-
peal the local boards are taking the right
action

Why Stoop Snouldered

almost every farmer boy and girl is

children all wear broad -brimmed straw
hats in summer, and as these blow OFF
easily they are continually holding their
heads down so as to bring the wind di-
rectly on the top. This position of the
head becomes habitual, and go where
