The Dew House of Nelsonville,
the oldest hotel in the Hooking
valley, having sheltered and fed the
travelling public for over 80 years,
closed its register on August lst. The
wealthy owner, Senator James Dew,
after investing many thousand dol
lars in improvements, became dis
gusted with the dull business and
seeing lack of appreciation, and
closed the doors to the public.
He intends to use the hotel as a
dwelling from now on, and wishes it
stated that money cannotront it, and
that 1t shall never be used as a hotel
again.-Lancaster Democrat.
This is another example of the Nc
Kinley good times, may be the Sen
ator will appreciate that fact, no
business, no travelling men, no trade.

NEXT WEEK
We Are Promised a Brill
ant Display of MeteOrs.
when the Fiery Substances Begin TO
Drop From the Heavens Don't Mis-
take for That "Promised Pros
perit," From Our Gold Rug
Friends Of Last Fail.

The ninth and tenth Of the pre-.
sent month will be favorable for
motors and astronomers have sug-
gested that those who delight in
the phenomena of The sky keep II
sharp lookout on the dates in quest
ion. The motors will probably be
seen in the northeastern part of the
heavens. After three or four have
been seen it will become obvious
that they all shoot from the direct
ion of one particular point in the
sky--a point below the constella-
tion Cassiopcia.
Meteors arp now known to be
simply particles or small masses
Of matter, varying In size, perhaps,
from that OF Il marble TO that of
paving stone, which circle around
the sun, like the short period
comets, in highly elliptical orbit.
some Of which cross the earth's
path. They move in cloud or
"shoals" millions of them moving
in practically the same orbit. These
PARTICLES Of matter being struck by
the earth and entering its atmos.
phere with q velocity so or 100
times that Of " rifle ball, are quick
ly consumed by the heat engendcr-
ed by the friction of the air, their
tracks being lighted up momentar-
lily by their fatal splendor. A large
number of meteor systems is now
recognized. Although the meteors
belonging to any particular system
always move in the same direction
after entering the earth's Amos
phere, or nearly the same, and
their tracks are therefore, parallel
with one another, yet, from the law
OF perspective, they appear to rad
late from some single point. The
position of this point, or radiant"
gives its name to the system. These
Perseids seem 30 come, as just stat
ed, from II point in Perseus; the
Leonids-the November meteors-
from a point in Leo; the Orionids
from pnint in Orion, aud so on.
or late years the annual display Of
Perseids has been remarkably fine,
the meteors frequently being of
great siya and lenying long trails.
Keep lookout for them.

What the Tax Payers were Saved.

From the facts and figures wa take
from the county tax collectors books,
it is fortunate for our tax payers that
the present county commissioners
made an effort to rescfnd the former
action of the old board in awarding the
tax list to the Star, and thereby bring
ing on the long-drawn-Out mandamus
suit. Since July LIST, the time by law
that the tax sales should have been
published, there have been 81 ,SSS col
lected the tax collectors cost if this
amount had not been collected, would
have been 1919. The number of lines
that it would have taken to describe
this property, would have been 40i9,
or figurhd at The legal rate of 40 cents
per line, the sum of 81, 1860 This
last item added to the tax collectors
cost shows sum total saved the tax
payers in this legal battle of s., 1880.
Who can now say that it was great
expense to the county. We are rather
thankful for it, though il got exceed
ingly mOnOtOnous long towards the
end.

TouchstOne saw and read Tom Wat
sons "five column obituary" as it APP
peared in its original form, in the
great GeOrgian's paper, and can GER
tify to its being an excellent obituary
-splendidly and ably written-but
Silyerite is mistaken as to the corpse.
1t was fusion, and not the popullst
party over which Watson wrote his
''requiescat in pace" Touchstone
really hasn't the time or space to en-
tighten Silverite as To the meaning of
initiative and referendum, but can
tell him, that under its operation, the
people could everlastingly knock the
stufling out of every trust in the land ;
but the average G.. O. L. voter would
rather he robbed from the cradle to
the grave than support one of the
genuine democratic principles advo-
Gated by the peoples party.
Content is good hand at guessing
but has missed the mark again.
