Literary LOGIC.

says our Shookst0Wn correspondent:
There should be strong movement
made in the literary world against the
too plentiful love stories, which impress
upon the minds of SO many young peo-
pie false idea of life. Many young
people of to-day soak their brains in
this mawkish sentimentaity, until
there is not grain of sense left, and
their emotions are ready to gush out
and slop over at the slightest impulse.
The working girl is always dreaming
of the great hero, who will in some
mysterious way come along and lift
her out of her misery. But he does
not, because there is no such man.
This statement is rather strong, but it
is nevertheless true The average love
story is promiscuous distortion of the
life 1t processes to portray, while il may
not contain an immoral line in the or
binary sense of the term. The people
of this country are not divided into
two classes, namely, heroes and villains.
The men of this country honor wom-
ankind as it deserves and are brought
into contact with too many actualilies
to take many excursions into the rose
tinted domains of romance. There
can be no objections to the portrayal
of love. when it is done with reason
able fidelity to the facts. These now
els disregard the wide diversity of ele-
meuts, which 80 TO make up human
life, and dwell solely on love and mar
riage; fill the minds of young people
with set of false ideas that do great
harm in later life.

This Time it Was Real Fire.

Like the old fable of the boy and the
wolf, the many false alarms of fire
which have been an almost nightly oc-
currence lately, had produced such a
spirit of indifference upon the part of
our people that when real alarm was
sounded last Wednesday night, about
fifteen minutes past eight o'clock, the
fire department were SO slow in re-
spending, that the flames gained such
Roadway as to be uncomfortable. The
property which was destroyed was a
frame stable tenanted by Mr.. Byron
Feigley, in the alley running parallel
between Second and Third street, be-
tween Chapel alley and the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad. The structure burned
like Il finder box and it is said a young
horse persisted, it being impossible to
rescue the animal, so rapidly did the
flames do their work of destruction.
Considerable confusion prevailed
among the firemen, and by the time
water was thrown, there was little
need of it, except to save the fences in
the neighborhood which were on fire.
1t is almost certainty that the fire
was the work of incendiares, and it
will be extremely fortunate tor the
safety of property if they can be detect
ed in their nefarious practices.

considerable lower than the Chesa-
peake and Ohio Company, which has
at present the control of things in this
city. If the service of the new COM
pany is good, the rates low and the
list of subscribers sufficiently large,
the new innovation will certainly re-
ceive the support of the people. What

Burned 10 Death.

An exceedingly sad death was that
of the little five year-old daughter of
Mrs. Thomas Lawtoa, of Yellow
Springs, this county, last Thursday,
the Dist inst. She was bright child
and was just approaching that age
most interesting in extreme youth. The
little one, it is supposed, was playing
in some manner with fire, and the ele-
ment communicated itself to her cloth
ing. Screams rent the air and the
frightened girl ran out of the house,
where she was playing, in the direction
of her grand-father's residence, short
distance away. Before she had gone
half the distance, her strength gave
out, and she sank down in faint.
The end came soon. Her mother
reached the suffering child shortly af-
ter she fell, and smothered out the fire.
The injuries sustained by the little one
were necessarily fatal, and it was gen.
erous providence that sent death so
soon, as relief from intense suffering.
