THE MOCERN SANDWICH.

A man of fifty who had CHANGED new
er to hear of sandwiches from the time
he was a boy, when they were con
fined principally to three varieties
ham. tongue and corned beef-and
when, aside from what kind he would
take the chief question was whether
he would have mustard on it, might
be surprised to learn that nowadays
sandwiches are made in more varieties
than his own years number consider
ably more. In one big lunch establish
ment there are made sandwiches in
siXty-four varieties. The differences
between some of these varieties would
be slight. but at the same time they
would be clear and distinct; and there
would be found regularly on sale on
the counter more than twenty varieties
always ready.
Besides the familiar ham, tongue,
corned beef, roast beef. turkey and
chicken sandwiches. there are sold in
these days, either already prepared or
made to order a dozen varieties OF
what may be called fish sandwiches,
these including the commonly sOld

THE AUSTIN AFTERMATH.

Austin has been put on bread and
molasses diet, and is shut in small
cubby hole to spend his nights in mis-
cradle dreams, but there are still a few
items of interest concerning him and
his trials, that in which the public will
be interested.
Austin left bible in the Jail, on a
leaf of which he wrote his last lying
testimony-telling the public that he
never did it. But he didn't make the
bible say that Denny Dolan did it.
DR.. Rutter says he is satisfied from
the testimony that Austin is insane;
but there are from twenty to thirty
thousand people in Logan county, who
think he is not crazy, but possessed of
the devil-and they don't charge any
thing for their opinion. They. too, are
satisfied, but they are satisfied that he
is safe in the penitentiary. And all his
old neighbors feel that their lives are
safe, SO long as he stays there.
1t is said that Austin inherited a
farm of ITO acres in Union county, by
numbering his mother and brother, but
this is very doubtful.
The costs incurred in the arrest and
trial of Austin, amount to 81, 773. 38, OF
which the State is expected to pay over
81, 600.
Logan county pays Judge West $500
for assisting in the prosecution, and
$393.20, the jury expenses. Sheriff
Shaw has bill of 800, for board and
washing.
Austin was very anxious to harrangue
the court the morning he was sentenced,
and it was all his attorneys could do to
keep him from it-only succeeding by
telling him it would destroy all his
chances of securing new trial.
When Austin was taken to the peni-
tentiary, Wednesday, the Deputy War
den asked Sheriff Shaw as to his con-
duct while in Jail, his honesty and his
education, and the answers being favor
able, said he needed just such man
in the clothing department, to take
charge of it, and keep account Of ship
ments, and he thought he would try
Austin in the position.

THE ENCAMPMENT.

The Index in booming Bellefontaine
for the G. A. r. encampment says this
city could entertain the 1900 or more
visitors. Perhaps. But besides the
1900 visitors, what of the delegates?
The w. r. c. alone have over 400 del
egates in convention, besides as many
visitors. The ladies of the G. A. R.,
another patriotic order of women,
whose sessions are held at the same
time and place, has something near 300
delegates, while the Grand Army has
close to 1000 delegates. Then there
are the husbands and wives of the diff
ferent orders who themselves are not
members of the organizations, but go
for the social pleasure. The w. r. c.
delegates are furnished free dinners
each day of convention, and money is
always raised by the citizens for this
purpose. AT some places as much as
81, 900 has been given the women. 1t is
said that Kenton is after the encamp-
ment, but as some one remarked We'd
nesday evening, we could ask for it.
like Kenton, but like Kenton, we
wouldn't expect to get it. No need to
be in a hurry. The encampment would
not come to this part of the State next
year anyhow; we are too near Findlay.
Perhaps we'll grow in the next few
years, and build tabernacle, where
the GrandArmy meeting could be held,
and our population increase to such an
extent that we could accommodate not
1900 but the 10000 visitors we might
expect. 1t is good time to start the
movement, and a good time to look in
to the matter

A VERY CAUTIOUS OPINION.

DR.. 81. c. Rutter, superintendent of
the Gallipolis asylum, has made state

You were one year old. when you had

when you had lived 10 years; you will
be 100 years old, when you have lived
100 years; and 20 hundred years if you
live 1000 years. In like manner, the
ages of the centuries are counted.
Nineteen hundred is not twenty hund-

it's make up, and will not be completed
when it enters on its one hundredth
year, but when it has closed its hun

years old till he has reached his twen-
tieth year. We are not ready yet

MR.. BROWNS EXPLANATION.

The report of the examiners, who
were appointed by the Court, to exam
inc the county Commissioners report,
charged that the Commissioners had
charged for buggy hire, contrary to
law. Mr.. Brown makes an explanation
that leaves very little to explain. 1t is
this: That of the S62.50 charged by
the Commissioners, about one third
was for bills contracted before he came
into Office, and that the balance was
for rigs hired when all the Commission
ers had to go out on business, together,
and that the Prosecuting Attorney in
formed them that to charge this to the
county was all right.

A SKETCH
Of Wealthy and Worthy Citizen

John Nicholson was born in Harmony
township, Clark County, Ohio, June IL,
1887, being the son of Andrew and
Rachel Hammond Nicholson, both de-
ceased. In his distressing accident, as
he was returning to his fine home,
where joy reigned supreme, he was
killed by the limited Express train.
going at lightning speed, at high noon,
Thursday, December %, 1899, aged
sixty-two years, six months and sixteen
days.
His parents were among the early
pioneers of Clark Comfy, and suffered
the hardships characteristic OF those
early days. The father died in 1880,
leaving large estate for the deceased
to settle, which he did to the entire
satisfaction of all concerned.
At his majority, Mr.. Nicholson joined
his brother Andrew in business part
nership, and together they have labor
ed for forty-two years in telling the
forests, cultivating the soil, and rails
ing stock, during which time they have
never been separated for more than a
very few days at time. Together
they bore the burdens and shared the
success of life, having lived in the same
house until five years ago. Both were
blessed with splendid financial ability,
as has been well attested in most sub
stantial manner, and by this, coupled
with the hardest of work all their lives
even till now in their abundance, great
perseverance, keen perception, care
full saving, and self-denial of the lux
uries of life, and above all, by an hon
est purpose, integrity, and uprightness
they have built up a fortune, and have
come to their present standing and
surroundings.
Mr.. John Nicholson married Miss
Ella Hannahs, of Logan county, Ohio,
five years ago, which has been very
pleasant union. To them were born
this past fall a daughter, Ella j., who
with five brothers and three sisters of
the deceased, are left to mourn the loss
of devoted brother, kind husband and
father. One brother, George Nichol-
son, is at present in California. An
other brother, Amaziah, lives in Kan
sas. The other three brothers, An
drew, Lemuel, and Nathan; and the
three sisters, Mrs. Jerry Yazel, Mrs.
Hope Judy, and Mrs. Oscar Stewart,
all live in the neighborhOod of Platts-
burg, the home of the deceased.
He was raised by Christian parents,
who taught him to respect his fellow
men, and to extend a helping hand in
times of need and distress. He was a
quiet, unostentatious, hard-working
man. He was believer of the Bible,
and in God as the great governing
Force and Power that controls the uni
verse. He was church trustee, and
liberal in supporting preaching and
repairs of the church house, no one do
ing more for the financial support of
ihe church in the village where he
lived. He possessed a good heart,
large in sympathies, honest in all fits
purposes. He lived his religion. In
his death, the community loses an up
right, enterprising citizen, wise coun-
selor, energetic in rushing forward and
sustaining the good of the neighbor-
hood, and respected By all who knew
him. The sad accident by which came
to his death is grief to all.

OFF FOR THE PEN.

Ernest Austin was taken to the peni-

people in Zane township will breathe
easier, now that they know he is locked

believe not only that he is double
murderer, but that he came within one
of exterminating his whole family, and
came near making it complete job.
