The Big Six cased their No. on the
Holtmeier farm Wednesday.
G. 81. Brinton has secured the Henry
Schroeder lease at Bowling and proposes
to develope the same at once. This is
the lease that nearly every oil operator
in N northwestern Ohio has been trying
to get hold of.
The well on the Bennett Gerdes farm,
operated by Taylor Bros, of Findlay,
struck the sand Thursday. This lease
is being eagerly watched by oil men as
1t is about a mile northeast OF the
Dowllng field proper, and may develope
a new territory.

order to run the government, the same
as did Cleveland when he went into
Office, and that 1t was mainly due to
the Republican administration that
Cleveland was compelled TO issue
bonds.
In replying to the above, Driver
pronounced it false, and made remarks
insinuating that Baker had wllfully
misrepresented the question.
This was more than the fiery blood
of the old soldier could stand, though
he held his peace until his turn came
TO take the stand, when in the course
of his remarks, he accused the
reverend gentleman Of having called
him liar. This was an acceptance
OF the challenge thrown out by the
divine and was the signal for the
commencement OF the first round.
Driver rushed into the ring by
shouting from his position in his seat
that the statement made by Mr.
Baker was false.
This angered the old soldier who
had the floor, and necessarily the
right to talk, and he retallated by in
forming his opponent, the reverend
gentleman, that II he didn't shut up
he would slap his face for him.
BY this time the fray was becoming
quite interesting and scramble was
made for the best positions by the
spectators.
Driver made another lunge into the
ring at Baker by calling him an In
amOus old scoundrel. His face was
white with rage, plainly showing that
he had no control whatever over his
temper, entirely out OF keeping with
one Of his calling.
This last fling from his reverend OPP
ponent was too much for the old
soldier and the Yankee blood In his
veins boiled TO bursting and his eyes
snapped fire as he made a center rush
at his antagonist with a determina-
tiOn to crush him out OF the ring the
third round. But the move was de-
clared a foul and both OF the.combat-
ants were drawn from the ring by the
attendants.
The fight was postponed indefinitely
and thus ended a most disgraceful
scene at the very commencement Of
the county campaign. Ii was pro-
nounced show by all who witnessed
IL. Some are OF the opinion that IL
will not be repeated, though others
are not so conservative 70 this opinion
POpulists and Republican both regret
that such an ungentlemanly contrO-
yersy has taken place between their
legislative candidates.-Eugene Gard.

AN AGED HERO.

Bishop William Taylor goes back to

presses it. The Methodist conference
gracefully retired the veteran. He is
of the age of IS years and in West
Central Africa in a dozen years has
founded fifty missions. His has been
II noble work and now without any
ostentation he is making real hero
of himself. When he went to the dis
tant field there was but one station.
Those he set up cover 5000 miles of
territory and are self supporting. In
twelve months, thirty years ago, he
and his aides converted 1000 natives,
who were thus withdrawn from saw
agry to work for peace and progress.
Bishop Taylor, with intrepidity and
earnestness that can be almost idol
lied, now proposes to push away be-
yond the outposts he himself estab-
lished, to carry the Gospel to points
beyond those reached by Explorer
Livingston. The devout prayers and
the best wishes of millions will fol-
low Bishop Taylor along his self-im-
posed march. Of this remarkable man,
who has made himself figure i'm his
tory, the San Francisco Chronicle
says:
Bishop Taylor is well remembered in
California, where, in San Francisco,
he began in 1S49 seven years cam
paign of street preaching, with an
empty whisky barrel for a pulpit. He
was with James King of William. ed

while the bells of the Vigilance Com
mittee were ringing the death knell of

of ladies from abroad witnessing the

Dresses to Be Made Shorter and Moreover
and Not Stiffened.
1t is rumored that skirts are to be short
or for ordinary wear. A skirt that does not
touch the ground when the wearer is walk
ing is certainly the most comfortable one
for the street and is infinitely heater than
one which drags even a little, for the
brushing of the edge Of the skirt against
the sidewalk raises cloud of dust that
settles upon the hosiery and white skirts
with most unpleasant effect. Unless ono
can afford to pay laundry bill Of colossal
proportions the long walking skirt is a
forbidden luxury, since 1t necessitates ono
or two changes of white wear day.
Skirts are already narrower, and now
there is a whisper that the stiffening Of
crinoline or haircloth is to be omitted, it's
place being supplied by stiff petticoat,
which gives the required flare and yet al
lows the dress skirt to retain it's softness.
The rigidity of the stiffened dress skirts
has been a grievous fault, artistically
speaking, and it is to be hoped that tho
softer effect will obtain general favor.
Haircloth petticoats with silk ruffles are
worn and are not so costly as would APP
pear at first thought OF course they are
expensive, but the same one will serve un

are indulgent with us and if

there are attractive bits of

cupy their attention for a few

and buyers that make us
happy. If the rush continues
the force of clerks will be en-
