Budget Of News Items from Our
Belmont County Neighbor.

The proprietor of the Exchange Ho-
tel expects to make some extensive i'm
proyements to the hosiery. The apart
ment now used as writing room and
Office will be converted into a restau-
rant and the writing room will be To-
Gated on the second floor. The restau-
rant will be made thoroughly up-to-
date and first-class in every particular.
The room will be finished in marble,
with floor and Wainscoting of that ma
terial. The contract for this work has
been let to Evans & Stevens, of Cadiz,
Ohio. The sample room will also be
enlarged and re-furnished. Will Drury,
an experienced caterer of New York,
Will have charge of the restaurant, and
the hotel will be run entirely on the
European plan. Mr.. Smith says the

Yesterday B. o. Officer John Trav-
ers arrested August Burwinkle on a
charge OF vagrancy and lettering about

labor at Is cents a day. The hard
labor" clause amounts to but little in
this county, but Burwinkle will no
doubt have to clay it OUT unless the
commissioners come to his relief
Squire Morrell says he is determined
to deal sternly with offenders of the
Burwinkle type and he thinks by SO do
ing that he will not only correct null
sance, but will impress the commits
sioners with the necessity for a work
house.
