Mound Builder and Historical Relics.


The Ohio State University and The
Ohio Archaeological and Historical
Society have been engaged during the
past three years in making large and
important collection of Indian, Mound
Builder and Pioneers relics. These
have been placed in an absolutely fire.
proof museum on the grounds OF the
Ohio State University at Columbus.
While Ohio is the richest state in
remains of the aborigines, it was not
until recently that the state collection
became large enough to be favorably
compared with similar exhibits in the
eastern museums. For many years
Ohio has been despoiled of valuable and
interesting relics by these eastern insti
tutions. Our own people have given
the subject of the preservation and
study of these things very little thought.
There are in the hands of persons
over the state, many thousands of stone,
bone and clay objects, made and used
by primitive tribes; old books, manu-
scripts, land grants, old letters and
other historical documents relating to
the settlement OF Ohio; pioneer relics,
such as old clocks, spinning wheels,
fails, wooden-springs, etc. These will
become lost or scattered. That they
should be preserved and properly
labeled and cared for in behalf OF future
generations, goes without saying.
The Museum at the Ohio State Uni
versity Is the proper repository for all
such things. Once placed thero they
can never be burned or stolen. Every
speciman in the museum is properly
labeled with the name of the person
who donated it, the date and other par
ticulars. The State Historical Society,
together with the University, desires
to make strong plea to the people ol
Ohio to send by express or freight any
relics in their possession. The charges
on same will gladly be paid by the mus
cum and due credit given the donors
From those who do not care to donate
specimens will be received on loan, sub
ject to withdraw at the option of the
owner.
The Curator OF the University will
he glad to correspond with all patri
otto persons regarding the work OF thu
museum and the character OF it's exhibits

Let farmers beware. A new and
cunning scheme is being worked success
fully by ''egg sharpers." Many have
been caught in the trap. and it seems
farmers would get out of the notion of
dealing with strangers and putting
their autographs on suspicious paper
The schemev in this scene appears at
the farmhouse as representative of an
eastern grocery house and will sell the
farmer d bill OF groceries and take as
payment eggs, and agrees to pay cent
or two more than the local merchant
does. The schemer then gives the said
farmer u note promising to pay the face
value in groceries, while the farmer
gives his note face value payable in
eggs. That seems square deal to the
farmer, but the groceries fail to
appear, the schemer is unknown in the
East and his note is worthless, while
the farmers note appears at the bank
for collection when due and of course
has to be paid in cash, the egg part hay
ing vanished.

A prominent Senator in one OF the
Eastern states is about to wage war on
the ladies on account Of their clothing.
He proposes to introduce bill prohibit
ting the women from wearing tights,
knickerbockers, bloomers or shirt
waists. If this man is not squelched
what will be the result OF such legisla-
tion? First thing the people know if
the la aws continue to curtail the ladies
wardrobe they won't have anything to
wear, and then it will be necessary to
pass law compelling men to wear

The shooting of sparrows may not be
a crime in itself, but shooting within
the corporation is a violation of law,
and any person engaged therein should
be arrested. So little attention has
been paid to this frequent violation OF
law that children OF very tender years,
together with boys and men, are per-
mitted to shoot in any part of town at
any object that pleases their fancy. We
are informed that there is an ordinance
prohibiting the shooting of any kind of
fire arms within the corporation; also
the use of the abominable air gun,
which is the most dangerous plaything
that can be placed in the hands of a
youth. LII this be true 1t Is the duty
OF tho village authorities To arrest any
and every person found violating the
provisions OF the ordinance. 1t is true
every person thinks that he is careful
and no danger will result from the use
oil such weapons, but the case referred
10 elsewhere in which Perrysburp
lady came near losing her life, was one
OF those accidents which are liable tc
occur any time weapon is discharged
within the village limits, and 1t is high
time the practice was abolished.

In the case of Bob Curry whose trial
for completely in the North Baltimore
robbery and murder, which will come
up for trial in the common Pleas court
on the Nth of this month, an applica-
tiOn for a change of venue TO Hancock
county will come up for hearing and
will be decided by Judge Melhorn on
that day. The application for change
OF venue was made upon the grounds of
the inability to give the accused fair
trial, and the impossibility of securing
an impartial jury. The lawyers, per-
haps, know more than we do about this
matter, but one cannot look at the jury
in the Jones case without being i'm
pressed with the fact that they are
twelve as substantial, honorable and
just men as could be found anywhere
and there are no better in Hancock
county.

How HE LoyEs THE yEopIr.

How Brother Bryan does love the dear people. And he loses no oppor- tunity to tell them so. He told them so as long as he could talk on his way to New York and told them so several times in his speech last evening. He is willing to be their hired man." their Boy President, or anything else that suits them and him. All he asks is to be something for them. He ascribes to them all power and all wisdom and delicately intimates that he hopes they will use their power and their wisdom so as to put him where he hopes to be put. If they will only do that he feels sure that they will do good thing for themselves. He has not the shadow of a doubt that he is a good thing and he asks the dear, beloved people to push him along. If they shouldn't happen to love him as much as he loves them they will make a Iuis- take and he will know it if they don't. He may forgive them. He seems pre- pared to forgive the people almost any thing now, but if he should feel diff ferently after the election of Mckinley he may have pride enough not to tell them. As long as there is a chance that they will return his love he will tell them how much he loves them as often as he can. Probably no presiden- tial candidate ever loved the people as he does. At least none ever said what he says. It is fine and a touching exhibition of pure and disinterested af- lection.

The catalogue Is also to be is- sued from time to time i'll book form in parts corresponding to the several branches of science. English is to be the language of the two catalogues. Authors names and titles are, however, to be given only in the original lan- guages, except when these belong to a category to be determined by the inter national council. The question of the classification of the subject matter gave rise to considerable discussion, and it was ultimately resolved to remit the study of classifcations to com mittee of organization formed by the Royal Society, to study all questions relating to the catalogue undecided by the conference.
