This proposition was not altogether
to the liking of the representatives of

string that their cars might be per-

Of passengers and over the
tracks Of the Cincinnati Street Rail-
way company. To this the directors Of
the local company would not consent
because Of the large size and double

fanchise that it now holds for operat-
Ing 1000 feet in the village of Col

ever. to refer the matter to the direc-
tors of the Southern Ohio company for

New Arrangement viii Take Them
Into the City.

The Southern Ohio Traction COM
pany, In which a number of Akron
men are stockholders, Is planning to
gain an entrance into Cincinnati.
A meeting was held at Cincinnati
last week at which the matter was
carefully discussed. The details Of
meeting have just been made public.
The terminus of the Southern Ohio
Traction company is College Hill, and
at present the cars of the Cincinnati
Street Railway company, connect with
the cars of the other company at that
point for Hamilton and beyond.
According to the present arrange
ment the passengers for the Southern
Ohio line are charged five-cent fare
to College Hill, and then the addition
al fare from there on, and returning
are charged to College Hill, and pay
fve-cent fare to get into the city.
The Southern ohio people want a
closer running arrangement, The spe-
cial committee from the Cincinnati
Street Railway company, to which the
matter was referred at a recent meet
ing of the board, consists of President
John Kilgour, s. r. Burton and Nat
Henchman Davis. They were met
by Will Christy of Akron, President
NJ. j. Mandelbaum, of Cleveland, vice
president of the Southern Ohio Trac-
ton company, and Warren Bicknell,
the auditor of the road.
The Cincinnati Street Railway CON-
panys proposition provides in the first
place that the other company shall
turn over the franchise that 1t holds
in College Hill for about 1000 feet
of entrance into the village. In return
for this the Cincinnati company agrees
to build or furnish cars of the pattern
of the cars used in the city that shall

HOARDED
Was 0sborn's Gold.
Believed to Have Hidden
$4,000
In Odd Places About
His Ric hfield Farm.
Sc mething fbout the Find o
last Sc, tember.
Osborn Made His Money During
Civil War

The finding of large amount O
gold that had been hidden by Mr.
Oscar Osborn at his 240 acre farm il
Richfield township, and the subse
Quent developments that have followed
upon the incident in the local courts
has caused curiosity on the part Of
many people to know how the money
was found. The facts are as follows
On the 9th of September, Mr.. p. @
Bigelow and his hired man, Mr.. Lorir
Loomis, were at work on the Osborn
farm taking some partitions out of q
corn crib. Mr. Bigelow was on the
inside Of the crib, and Loomis was
standing at the door The latter would
take the scantling, boards and other
material as Mr.. Bigelow handed them
to him and remove them to the out
side of the crib
Mr.. Bigelow picked up a piece Of
wood that was fashioned to represent
a wagon bolster. He remarked to his
hired man that the piece which con-
tanned something Of a cavity might
have been used as a hiding place for
gold. Upon picking up another wa.
gon bolster, which was almost dupli-
cate of the first. one, Mr.. oBigelow re-
marked that he was sure there was
gold in it because it was SO heavy. He
told Mr.. Loomis to split the piece, and
when he did so large amount of gold
rolled out upon the floor. The money
was nearly all in $2U gold pieces. There
was one So gold piece, and 20 silver
half dollars.
Part of the money was rolled up in
paper to keep IL from rattling, while
the other was enclosed in a muslin
bag.
The other wagon bolster was split
open but all that was found enclosed
were note and a tax receipt.
In all between $1,000 and $4,000
were found hidden in the holsters.
The money was taken to the house and
surrendered to Mrs. r. r. Brewer,
daughter of the late Mr.. Osborn.
1t is current opinion in Richfield
that Mr.. Osborn had upward Of
$4,000 in specie concealed in out-of-
the-way places about his big farm In
Richfield, and that large part of
this money has been recovered. Mr..
Osborn had boarded this money since
1873 He had made most of 1t during
the Civil war, when he sold his farm
products at high prices. He got $2S
a ton in the Cleveland market for his
hay, and it is told, that while hauling
hay one week to that market he did
not unharness his horses for Ave
days. Being very frugal man it was
natural that he should accumulate a
great deal of money.
1t is told that Mr.. Osborn was never
heard to say an unkind word of his
neighbors and that he always tried to
palliate their faults when they were
brought to his attention.
Mr.. Bigelow is one of Richfeld's
well known young men and enjoys the
general respect of the community.

An amusing case of mistaken iden
tity occurred Saturday evening In
front OF one of the local clothing stores
on Howard st. 1t was the hour of
closing the store, and young clerk,
who had very busy day of 1t and was
anxious to get away, was ordered by
the manager to carry in the dummies
standing on the sidewalk In front of
the store. The young clerk obeyed
with alacrity. He stepped outside,
grabbed one of the dummies and
hustled in inside. Out he went again,
and without observing closely, reached
forth and pulled towards him what
he supposed was a second dummy,
but which the young clerk realized
later, after receiving a stinging blow
on the cheek from the arm of the
supposed dummy, that it was human
being. 1t seems that young gentle
man escort of one of the lady clerks
in the next store was awaiting her on
the outside. AS he was dressed in the
height of fashion, was of a rather
pale, sallow complexion, and stand
ing motionless as a statue alongside
the dummy the clerk had just carried
in, the latter could hardly be blamed
for making the mistake. The clerk
loosened his hold and apologized,
while, the young fellow, accepting the
apolgy with Ill grace, started up the
street, feeling vnry veXed and crest
fallen over the fact that any person
could mistake his handsome physique
for clothing store dummy. The
lady whom he was to escort home
learned of the incident Monday morn.
ing when she returned to her tsore,
and she now knows why he failed
to be on hand Saturday night.

There are several societies in this
city, whose presiding officers must be
possessed of certain qualifications or
else his official regime would be a
failure. On account of the peculiar
makeup of his constituency it is nee.
essary that the president Of the So
ciety be able to speak at least two
lanuages. Their meetings are always
twice the ordinary length as every
question must be submitted in each
language. Then, too, there is double
amount of work for the secretary to
perform, Whenever a vote is taken the
question is put first In American and
then in German. The secretary has
a chance to display his mathematical
accuracy by adding so many Ameri-
can "ayes' to so many German "yahs."
AS yet no one uas questioned the de-
nomination of the result, whether it
be American or German.
