A SHARP MOVE.

II. v. h A. Road.
A warranty deed for one and six
tenths acres from M. s. Vought and
wife to the Columbus Hooking Val
ley and Toledo Railway Company
was filed for record with Frank W..
Wright, Recorder today.
To the casual observer this might
not seem out of the ordinary and
nothing to awaken any especial in
terest. However the tract con.
veycd is Il part of that portion of
land sought to be appropriated in a
condemnation suit now pending In
Probate Court by the Columbus,
Hooking Valley and Athens Rail-
way Company,the new road,against
the said grantors, Mr.. M. s. Vought
and Maria Vought. The whole
amount sought is about fifteen
acres.
The transfer of this tract to the
opposing railroad company will un-
doubtedly complicate matters, as
the old road now has gang of men
at Hooker building a spur track
from the main line on the coveted
tract. The counter-move on the
new road to checkmate this action
will be watched with interest, but
things are very lively at Hooker

B4Y4RD ON PROTECTION

Few Ambassadors to England have been as highly regarded in that country and have been shown as many courtesies as Thomas F. Bay ard. His wisdom is universally V rec ognized, and his opinion is sought on every subject. Recently he made an address in Edihburg in which he spoke as follows about protection:
 "In my own country ! have wit messed the unsuitable growth of that form of State socialism, styled pro- lection, which has done more to fos- ter class legislation and create inc quality offortunc, corruption in pub lie life, banish men of independent mind and character from public councils, blunt public conscience and place politics upon the low level of mercenary scramble than any other single cause. Step by step, and largely owing to the confusion of civil strife, it has succeeded in obtaining control of the sovereign power of taxation. creating the rey- enue into an engine of selfish and private nrofit. It's allied beneficial ries and combines are called trusts, " and gradually the eommer- cial marine of the United States have disappeared, the few vessels lately built being an exception and proving the rule, as they were only built by making breach in general tariff and navigation laws. x It is incorrect to speak of protection as national policy. That could never be, as it will never be any thing but the fostering of special in terests at the expense of the rest. It is fatal to hopes of advancement, or even to what has been gained by civilization.

Epilepsy 20 Years. Cured by pr. Miles Neryine

A few years ago, Mir. L. w. Gallaher, was an extensive, successful expert manu- facturer of lumber products. Attacked with epilepsy, he was obliged to give up his bus- ness. The attacks came upon him most in- opportunely. One time falling from carri- age at another down stairs, and often in the street. Once he fell down q shaft in the mill. his injuries nearly proving fatal MT. Gallaher writes from Milwaukee, Feb. 16. ,95.

mauve was chosen if sarcasm and ridi- eule were to flow from his pens tip, the color selected was most sanguinary carmine.
 Though his work was from the first such as to command attention, his later years have produced finished literary gems far ahead of his earlier productions. His earlier writings were mostly hu- morous, and, in fact, as & humorist his memory will live in most mems minds, though much of his later work is instinct with true and delicate sen timent.
 Mir. Fields forte, both i'll verse and prose, was, without controversy, his touching delineation of child life and character. His Little Boy Blue" and his "Wynken, Blynken and Nod' are the work of master hand Many of his child pieces will last as the best exam pies of exquisite feeling, more difficult than all else to put in words In appo- sition he had a large strain of humor, but it was brusque rather than polished and delicate and fell far below the in- finite tenderness of his verse when the subject was babyhood or childhood. MT. Field was an admirer of Horace and has done some of the Latin poet s odes into fairly good English verse, sometimes in imitation of the original scansion. This of itself is only hamper on the free dom of the rendering. He was far bet ter as an original ill the school he made for himself than ill any imitation. MT. Field was a sprightly man, exceedingly dry in his humor of conversation, but nevertheless humorous. He was wit, too, and had no mean talent as a reciter of eomical or pathetic bits. His home was cheerful and his library universal. Following are some of his better known poems. This one came out last Christmas and shows his great love for the little ones:
 LITTLE ALL-ALONEY.
 Little All-Aloney's feet
 Pitter batter in the hall,
 And his mother runs to meet
 And to kiss her toddling sweet
 Ere perchance he fall.
 He is, oh, weak and small
 Yet what danger shall he fear
 When his mother hovereth near
 And he hears her cheering call,
 ''All-Aloney?"
 Little All-Aloney's face,
 It is all aglow with glee
 As around the romping place
 At a terrifying pace
 Lungeth, plungeth he.
 And that hero seems to be
 All unconscious of our cheers
 Only one dear voice he hears,
 Calling reassuringly,
 "All- Aloneyl'
 Though his legs bend with their load,
 Though his feet they seem so small That you cannot help forbode
 Some disastrous episode
 In that noisy hall,
 Neither threatening bump nor fall Little All-Aloney fears,
 But with secret bravado steers
 Whither comes that cheery call
 "All Aloney!"
 An, that in the years to eome
 When he shares of sorrows store,
 When his feet are chill and numb
 When his cross is burdensome
 And his heart is sore,
 Would that he could hear once more The gentle voice he used to hear
 Divine with mother love and cheer,
 Calling from wonder spirit shore,
