fessor of Pedagogy in the State Uni
versary, will give an address on ED

All invited.
The "real leader of local democ-
racy will be kept quite busy for the
next twenty years-he is going to
erect a ten-story building. John
Mock's case will be pigeon-holed for
few years. AS a rebuke to the
"would- be leaders" it is thought John
will be given the position of secre-
tary of State: or minister plenipoten-
tiary to St. K.ilian.
In the German Evangelical
church last Sunday John Rippberger
was elected class leader and H. Dot
,eusassistant leader, for the seventh
district. Henry APPLE ST.. is class
leader for the north side and William
Mass assistant leader; he is also pres

which is to be held once a month in
this church. The members take good
part and everything is prosperous
and in good standing.
j. G.. Christie was a pleasant
caller at this Office last Monday. Mr..
C. has lately returned from Germany

this was his first trip back. The
same old scenes greeted his vision
that he had left more than twenty
years ago; the same old substantial
buildings, etc., apparently unchang-
ed by the ravages of time.
The Mobiles county papers auth

Adrian Democrat and Guardian. The
new law cuts out the Herald of this
city and the Kinbrae Herald. Here
tofore papers established three
months were given the laws. The
new law also provides that legal
paper must have at least 24O paid
subscribers. This proviso, also, would
cramp our neighbor.
-William H. Brown is in Worth
ington this week taking orders for
several first class publications, among
which are the Speakers Complete
Program" and "The Bible for Young
People" They, especially, are pub
locations which should be in the
hands of young people, and we hope
Mr.. Brown will take large number
of orders in Worthington. He is an
old soldier, worthy of encouragement,
recommended by the best people OF
his town, and offers at very moder-
