Once upon time two frogs VIII o
had been living In comfort and ease
In a cool pond of clear water, were
accidentally scooped up by a pious
milkman in a bucket of water
which he poured into his can in
order to give his milk more body,
and thereby increase his revenue.
The frogs We're ast0nished to find
themselves in an unknown element
in which it was not possible for
them to support life, and they had
to kick vigorously in order to keep
their heads above the milk. One of
them dishartened by being shut up
in the dark in an element entirely
new to him, said: "Let's give it up
and 60 to the bottom; it's no use
kicking any longer" The other
said: "Oh, no let's keep kicking as
long as we can, and see what the out
come will be. May be things will
change presently" So one frog
gave up and went to the bottom.
The other kept kicking and when
the pious milkman got to town and
opened his can, behold, the frog
had kicked out lump of butter big
enough to float HIM, and he was
sitting very comfortably. Moral
In hard times never give up, but
keep kicking American.

Obituary..

Miss Annie E. Alden, who died of
Malarial fever, Sunday morning
July 10th, was the oldest of eight
children whose parents were Au-
gustus Alden, a direct defendant OF
John Alden of the Mayflower, and
Ann l.. Alden, daughter of Gov
ernOr Lumpkin of Ga.
Mr.. Alden graduated from Yale
College In 1916, and went to Ga. to
teach. He became a noted educa-
tor in prominent schools in his
adopted state. 1t was said of him,
"That he prepared more young men
for College than any other teacher
in the State" His daughter Annie
was associated with her father as a
teacher and became widely known
throughout the state. She had
been sent North in order to obtain
special scholarship to fit her to be-
come, what she really came to be,
noted in her profession-especially
in teaching the French language
Two brothers and two sisters sur
vive her. For several years past
her home has been in Macon, Ga.
Last Autumn she was partially par
alyzed and remained quite feeble
for several months. She was able
to come to her favorite sister last
May, under the guidance and care
of Mr.. Bartlett, and here it was
hoped that the mountain air would
invigorate her, so that in the Au-
tumn she could return to her de-
voted friends in her native state.
She was soon stricken down with
Malarial fever, and gradually
wasted away until she quietly ex-
pired on the early morning of the
Lords day.
In early life she united with the
Presbyterian Church, but for the
last few years was member of
Christ's Episcopal Church in Macon.
Though she could recognize
friends and extend her trembling
left hand to them, she had not been
able to speak for two weeks.
A remarkable woman has gone
to engage in the Divine Service
where no paralytic strokes will i'm
pair her vigor and abbreviate plans
and purposes.
The kindness of her many friends
was beautifully and touchingly ex-
hibited during her sickness, and
deeply and gratefully sank into our
stricken hearts. Upon them all we
implore the Divine Benediction.

Bob Flanagan and George Rus
sell were parties to a cutting ARRAY
yesterday about midday, and Rus
sell received some hard cuts. The
affair happened near Craig's Mill in
the First Ward. AS related by an
eyewitness the trouble was as fol-
lows: Russell was sitting near the
mill, when Flanagan came up and
began cursing him. Russell got up
and moved off a little distance, TAX
ing seat on fence near by. At
this point the gentleman who wit
messed the beginning Of the trouble
turned and went into his house. As
he reached the porch he heard some
one cry, "Look, that man is being
cut" Turning he saw Flanagan
slashing Russell with knife. Rus
sell had rock in his hand. Some
one yelled for the men to fight it out
fair and Flanagan dropped his knife
and Russell his rock. 1t was i'm
mediately apparent that Russell was
too weak to fight. He had re-
ceived several dangerous cuts, one
of them, in the back, being especial
ly bad. A physician was summoned
and he sewed up Russell's wounds.

ALL SORTS.
A Young Man Treated to Bad Eggs
Assessors Returns
News Item S.

There has been much social trouble at
Louisville during the past week or SO
A young man of that place, who has not
been very long married, has for some
time persisted in attentions to girl to
whom he was somewhat devoted before
his marriage. This it seems did not
meet the ideas of propriety entertained
by other citizens of the town. So as the
youth was about to enter the home of
the girl late on the night of Sunday
week, volley of eggs was fired at him
out of the surrounding darkness, smash
ing on the boy and the door. He sprang
inside, but at once came out, and at
tempted to pursue the egg -throwels, but
without success. Sunday night, week
after, the young man accused two other
young men of the outrage to his person,
and they denied the charge with great
vehemence. 1t seemed that a fight to
the death was imminent, but the row
happily only amounted to loud talk on
the part of the men and screams on the
part of their women friends. This, how
ever, almost broke up a service in the
church near by. The whole affair is as
unsavory as possible, and there is danger
of still further trouble.

Possibly a Murder.

Some two or three years ago the body
of lnan badly mangled by train was
found on the railroad track at Barnes
vile. As he was known to have been
drinking the supposition then was that
he had laid down on the track and had
been run over Recently rumor has it
that some revelations are about to be
made in regard to the matter to the effect
that in quarrel the man was struck on
the head with an ak in the hands of one
of a party of four or five men, all of
whom are still in Barnesville. Having
killed him the body was carried to the
railroad track and train allowed to run
over him in order to hide the evidences
of the crime. The facts are said to have
leaked out in various ways, but the names
of all parties are withheld for obvious
reasons.

A Good Deal of Nonsense.

A good deal of nonsense is talked and
written about farmers debts. Some
would have us believe that under no con-
sideration ought farmer to incur debt
of any sort, yet many of the best farmers
that we know commenced by going in
debt for their land, and have often as
sumed further debt for the purpose of
pends wholly upon what the debt is in
CURED for as to its wisdom. 1t is foolish
to 60 in debt for fat horse, or for any
needless luxury, but when the debt will
help one to make more money and so be-
come indedependent sooner. it is very
different thing.-Noble County Repub-
lican.

SuQgeStiOu.

A man who has in various ways been
annoyed and damaged by dogs, especially
the sheep killing kind, suggests that the
dog tax law should be amended as fol
lows: Each person owning one dog to be
taxed 81: each person owing two dogs to
be taxed 50 for each dog; each person
owning three dogs to be taxed SO for
each dog; and so on, increasing the rate
of taxation to the increase of dogs.

KNIGHTS TEMPLARS.
Successful Meeting of Hope Com
mandery- Exercises, Work, and
A Banquet.

Members of Hope Commandery, No,
26, K r., may well be proud of the sue
cessful conclave held at the asylum here,
Thursday, and the attendant exercises
outside Sir knights to the number of
seventy were present, including members
and visitors from Bellaire, Bridgeport,
Martins Ferry, Barnesville. Cadiz, Steu-
benville, Wheeling and Cincinnati. At
o'clock the Commandery marched in a
body from the Hall to the Methodist
Church, where the beautiful and i'm
pressive ritual work provided by the
Grand Commandery of Ohio for Ascen-
sion Day was gone through. The beauty
of this service was much enhanced by
the singing of well-trained choir of the
towns singers. DIR. Webb then made a
brief but very appropriate and profitable
address, which was listened to with
marked attention and highly spoken of
by all who heard it. Returning to their
hall, the remainder of the afternoon and
the evening were consumed by the
Knights in the work of comforting the
Commandery degrees on the following
persons: John NJ Garvin and VIM. 7.
Perry, of Cadiz; e. W. Deyarmon, L. j.
Boeshar, st. John Rockershousen and J.
F. Mellott, of Bellaire. At about IL
O'Clock. the Commandery and the choir
which furnished the music for the exer-
cises, sat down in the Clarendon Hotel
to banquet which fittingly closed the
pleasant and successful days work.
The following resolution passed before
adjournment, explains itself: Resolved,
That the most sincere thanks of Hope
Commandory are due and are hereby ten
dered to our friends of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, of st. Clairsville, for
the use of their place of worship for As
cension Day services, and to the Rev.
Webb for his very able and instructive
address; also to the choir for their most
excellent singing; all of which services
are most highly appreciated. We also
hereby tender our very grateful thanks
to our friends of the Presbyterian Church
for their very kind invitation, which we
were unable to accept. Resolved, that
the above action be spread upon the min
utes, and the secretary authorized to ad-
wise the above named parties of the
adoption of these resolutions"

A Sad Death.

H. E. Wells, of Colerain township, died
at the home of his brother, in Cambridge,
on Sunday night, from acute stomach
trouble. Last winter his wife died, since
which time he has been quite respondent,
and apparently unable to rally from his
own ill health. He was about 40 years
of age, was born and raised in Martins
Ferry, and was for some years engaged
in the drug business in Bridgeport in the
firm of Wells & Dent. His remains were
brought to Bridgeport for interment.
