Sunday-School Convention.

At st. Louis there has just closed the
greatest Sunday School gathering In the
history of the world. This is the conven-
tion which, for the past twenty one years
has furnished the International System
of Uniform Lessons, which is now studied
by over twelve million people every week.
A strong attack has been made upon this
system, but it has stood the test for years,
and this great representative gathering,
by enthusiastic unanimous resolution, de-
cided to stand by it as the best. Ohio
was favored with the presidency of this
convention in the choice of Hon. Lewis
Miller, of Akron. Ohio had SO delegates
present who will spread some of their
enthusiasm in their various localities
and make official report at the next con
vention of the Ohio Sunday School Asso-
citation, which is to be held at Dayton,
June 9TH to 7th, 1894.

hundred years can do! How little could
they of that day see of what we are Co.
day. The Senate and House, the Cabi-
net, and in fact, all Washington took
part in the celebration of this important
anniversary.
Hoke Smith has backed down on the
pension business. Well, this was unex-
pected. HOke was making record, but
fear he found the record was uDmaking
him, so ike wise man, he concluded to
back down and out. HOke commenced
at the wrong end, and in the the wrong
way If there are evils to be looked after,
there is a proper way to look after them,
but Hoke thought he could do it alone.
Hoke surely has acquired some knowl-
edge in his experience, at least we hope
so. knowledge is good thing, but
sometimes it costs good deal.

THE FAIR
Now in Progress the Same
Standard as For Several Years
Back.

As THE CHRONICLE goes to press the
st. ClairsviIle Fair is in progress. The
crowd in attendance is not large, but still
it is up to the average for the second day
for several years back. All the exhibits
were not in place when trip was made
around the grounds on Wednesday morn
ing, but then the exhibits are small part
of Fair in these later years when people
go more for the social features of the
occasion than to inspect any exhibits
that may be there.
In the Floral Hall B. B. Johnston has
his usual display of fine furniture, to-
gether. with the giftarticles which will be
given to the best guessers on the vote for
the successful candidate for Governor.
Mr.. Johnston's exhibit embraces fine
parlor suites. sideboards, ETC., and what
he has not there he can show you at his
store.
q. J. LaRoche, of Bellaire. has some
good pianos and organs on exhibition and
expert musicians say no better musical
instruments are made than he sells.
Joseph Mellor, the nurseryman, shows
some fine flowers, and then there is the
usual amount of fancy work, fruits, etc.
On the ground Amos Mcbride has
some fine surreys, phatons, buggies,
wagons, carts, ETC., and no doubt he can
quote prices as low as Can be made on
work of the highest class. From their
appearance no finer buggies roll on the
roads than these. Then, too, Mcbride
& Steger have good display of farming
implements consisting OF binders, hay
leaders, plows, harrows and the like, in
fact about every kind of machinery
needed on the farm.
In the live stock department B. NJ.
Loper has Is head of National Delaine
sheep which are probably as fine as can
be found in the county. Their wool is
of high grade and always brings a lit
tie more than the market price. Julius
Coffiand shows some Shropshire sheep,
among them being eve weighing three
hundred pounds.
l.. n. Stdi liao lOuI HOdQ vi hUcIuOcl
Angus cattle; Henry Morgan shows a
yoke of Holstein oxen, while Candy Gif
fen has on exhibition a number of head
of the same breed of cattle. Tom
Bryant also shows yoke of Short thorn
oxen. A good many good horses on the
grouLd, but we cannot speak of them
this week
Catchpenny devices are also there, but
not in such profusion as in former years.
A large number of fakirs are prowling
around the grounds, but there was not
enough of crowd there to induce them to
open up business, so it is impossible to
say lust what character of skin game
would be run. There is some sort of a
cheap show on the ground, too, and by
no means least of all, John |. Jackson's
SOY the World" If the weather re-
mains pleasant, there is good prospect
of large crowd on Thursday.

Before The Auditor.

Rev. DR. Mills has been getting into
some trouble, on the eve ofhis departure
from this field to new field Of pastoral
labor. He this year refused to make
oath to the Assessors return of his prop
erty, claiming that his word was as good
as his oath. He was summoned by the
Auditor to hearing last week, and the
matter was postponed. He had made
the same sort of procedure last year. In
addition torefusing to swear to the re-
turn, Tax InQuisitor Bowman has some
claim to the Doctors attention, mas
much as for several years the amounts
returned by him have been diminishing
so rapidly as to excite suspicion.

Growing Better.

Bellaire is getting better along with
the rest of the world, as the following
calculation done by a Bellaire paper,
shows: 1t is figured that there are 496
glasses of beer in barrel that costs
So 20 or So so. This brings the retailer
about 1926 for the So so invested, and
even with that the consumer seldom gets
honest measure, being compelled to pay
for greater or less quantity of froth, as
the beer may happen to be more or less
lively" Still the saloon business is no
longer the profitable one it once was in
this city. Where there is one making
money there is half, dozen barely hold
ing. The reason is, not so much money
is spent in that line.

Did Lots of Buvinr.

A man named NJ. B. Steel, from Soap
town, west of Bridgeport, went to Pitts
burgh last week, andby representing him
self as a Wheeling music dealer pur-
chased 1900 worth of goods from a mu-
sic firm in that city. He was allowed to
bring 800 worth of goods away with him.
He was looked up and promised to return
the goods to escape prosecution, but just
what his object was no one knows.

Did Not Face The Music.

A young Louisville man had made ar
rangements for his marriage to a young
lady living north of this place, and the
ceremony was to have taken place Oh
Wednesday of last week. The young Ia
dy's people objected to the marriage, 80
it was arranged that she should come here,
meet the young man and have the knot
tied. When the time came, however, the
mans heart failed him. The prospect of
married bliss in exchange for single
blessedness was not half 80 halcyon as
he had at times before imagined. So he
did not come to the scratch, but instead
bought ticket for Iowa, where broth
er lives, and took the train Tuesday
night for the West.

ISAAC N. CLARK,
The Veteran Auctionee, Passes Away At
His Home South of Town.

The Veteran Auctionee, Passes Away AT
His Home South Of Town.
Isaac n. Clark died at his home, IL
miles south of town, Thursday. He was
" years of age, and died from congestion
of the bowels, after a brief illness. He
was born in Chester county, Va, coming
to this vicinity at an early age, and liv-
ing for number of years on the Collins
farm, north of town, and purchasing the
place where he died, about 40 years ago.
For nearly forty years he has been an
auctioneer, and in this capacity he has
cried nearly three thousand sales, and
was well known over an extended terri
tory. In this difficult calling he was en-
tirely successful, combining the necessa-
ry fluency of tongue, with lively mother
wit that kept his hearers in q good hu
NOR and did away with monotony. He
was of the sturdy pioneer race-robust
in frame, careful and prompt In the exc
cution of business, outspoken in his
maintenance of principle, firm in his 10y
atty to conviction, and of rigid integrity.
These qualities, together with his kind
ness and generosity and the geniality of
his disposition made him general ia
vorite, and won him many and fast
friends, no one of whom but will regret
that his race is run and that his voice
will never again be heard at the auction.
Mr.. Clark belonged to the Hicksite
Friends, and his remains were inferred
at the old Quaker burying ground in this
place, Friday, the funeral being held
from his late home. The wife of the de-
ceased died about two years ago, and out
of family of four children, but one

Hang On To It,

The cheapest property TO- day in Amer
