From the Christian, Of London, We make
the following extract which we regard as
most excellent advice for teachers OF children
in our Bible schools: Common sense teaches
that the time has gone by for mere secular
education in our Sunday schools, but how
many content themselves with imparting par
ticuars about the Word of God, and forget
that the chief work is to introduce the chill
dren to Jesus. Let US preach Jesus Christ as
Lord; that truth suits the child as we'll as the
man. Make clear to the child what sin is;
that he is lost, and so lost that Christ only
could find him; that God intended him to be
his temple, but sin has deflled and alienated
him from the life of God; point him to Jesus
who died that he might live, and do not
until, Chrirt is formed in him the
hope of glory. This position must be
mastered first. AS rule it Is the most lrk-
some, but 1t is most profitable. Child teach
ing is work more for the heart than for the
head"

guilty, but changed to that of gull
ty.
State of Ohio VS. Geo. Henry, Eu-
gine Linton, Chas. Barnecut, and
Chas. Pennybaker, indicted for as
sault upon Jno. Westenhaver. At
the close of the testimony for the
State, o. w. II. Wright attorney
for defendants, demurred to the
evidence for reason the State had
not made case and the court sus-
tanned the dcmurr and ordered the
jury to return verdict of not gull
ty for the defendants, which was
,done and the defendants were dis
charged. Henry and Barnecut
were the only ones OH trial. Pen
nybaker and Linton have not been
yet brought before the court. This
was one of the cases that grew out
of the excitement of the late strike
on the G. III. V. & TRY. The facts
disclosed are as follows: On the
evening of the 14th of last August,
John Westenhaver after having
reported for duty, was returning to
to the city and claims he was fol-
lowed by the defendants from
near Prices saloon to the corner OF
Main and Walnut streets. When
crossing Walnut street he saw one
Of the defendants make q motion
with his arm. as if in act of throw
ing and soon after he heard the
sound of q stone near him; did not
recognize any of the parties, nor
did not know who threw the stone
He ran away, but claimed that
more stones were thrown after
him. Other witnesses were called
but nothing of any Importance was
learned. The State at this point
closed.

TURNEDOUT TO SEE HIM
And Then Sent Word to Their Wives
and Children That it Was Safe to
Come Out.

The Republican papers, and espe-
cially the State Jonrnal, made q
great blow about the reception given
Governor Mckinley last Saturday
at Nelsonville.
They.say that 600 people were on
the platform to greet him, and made
the hills re-echO with their cheers.
A gentleman, who was an eye wit
ness, says that there We're less than
100 on the platform when Governor
Mckinley alighted from his luxuri-
Gus, private car, where. he rode in
solitary state. " '7 .--..'.
No one uttered cheer and Just
nine persons shook hands with him,
The hliners who were present called
out to one another: @
"It,s all right; he didn't bring his
soldiers with him!"
! "He hasn't got his guns with him!'
"Go and tell the women and chill
dren that it is safe to come out ON
the street," -
That is the style of reception he re-
ceived, and his flushed face was an
index to his modification.
At night, when he left in his luxu-
rious car, from which the multitude
was excluded, some three hundred
people were on hand to see him off.
Less than ~ dozen people cheered
him as lie entered the ear.
AT Logan, instead of taking supper
with the common herd at the railroad
eating house, he had dinner served
upon the car, consisting of bouillon
green turtle, blue fish,. tenderloin
pate de fol gras and all the delica-
cies of the season. He evidently be-
iieve that somebody ought to eat thai
sort of a dinner down in the Hooking
| Valley.

The sackssC Case.

The case of the SAse of Ohio VS..
Harry Sacks for shooting with intent
to kill, was dismissed on the failure
of the State to prove that the pistol
was loaded with leaden ball.
The defendants attorneys cited the
text books generally, the 42d O. s. r.,
23d o. S. r.. and. Sd Gin. Cir. CT. r..
The court, after full and thorough in
vestigation of all the authorities cit
ed and the law generally, decided
that the law is, "the body of the
crime cannot be proved alone by the
confession of the accused, but must
be corroberated by other testimony"
BY force of the above cited decis-
ions OF the supreme court, which
must be taken as the law. there was
no other course left thanfor the court
to order the Jury to return verdict
of not guilty and order the discharge
of the prisoner. ~ 'a'.

Saltcreek.

Better roads, is a theme of ma
tional Importance, but how to plan
to raise means is u problem not
easily solved. Our theory is that
like all governments that start
from the municipal, or individual
interest; roads must have their be-
ginnings in the village or township
and extend to county and state
roads and then become national
highways; hence. I'VE say that roads
should be under county supervision
and kept up by taxation, at least
leading roads. In this connection
will make the assertion that here
is no place in Ohio where a good
graded road is needed worse than
from Logan to southwestern part
of the county; say, commence at
saltcreek pike, near Daniel l.. Davis
and thence UP the valley of big
Pine Creek to its terminus and
cross over the low gap onto tribu-
tary of Scots creek and keep the
meanderings of that valley,till the
Hooking Valley, near Logan is
reached and the whole distance
covered byithis, route is only about
sixteen mile from Salt creek pike.
A good pike Of stone and gravel
could be constructed of oven grade,
without any great elevations and
would make Logan and the eastern
part,of the county neighbors to the
western part and we could ex-
change products, and Logan would
have a bonanza of ii and double
her commerce and thribble her
population in few years. We will
make the assertion that for mile
on either side of = pike from Salt
Creek valley to Logan which would
form a compact territory equal to
a township of SO sections and the
average value say is $40 per acre,
1
by assessment for taxation or $22.-
900, and 50-100 is $4,000 which is
reasonable, and would be we'll add
ed to the value of the lands without
stopping to guess how, many thous-
ands would be added to the wealth
of Logan, and we believe an ever
lasting rock or stone road can be
built over this line for less than
100000, and in FIVE years can be
paid out Of the gains of the people
in every way. Let the people talk
this up and vote for tax for build
ing this and other needed roads.
