Preparing to Leave For Other
Parts, Owing to
Notoriety.

A prominent resident OF Westville
who was in the city, stated that from
appearances the Oyster family, which
has come into sudden prominence by
reason of the stirring episodes of Albert
Oyster and his gyspsy wife, Madam
Zarretta, have decided to leave for other
parts, says. the Alliance Leader.
Charles Oyster, the head of the family
has disposed of all his property there.
1t has been learned that his son, Albert,
and Madam Zarrette, have commenced
housekeeping in Beaver Falls, Pa, and
is is surmised that the remaining men,
bers of the family expect to Join them
there. The whereabouts of the daugh-
ter, Mrs. Vansickle. and her husband
is not known. 1t will be recalled that
he was arrested some time ago for al
legged polygamous relations, but 1t was
afterwards claimed that he had secured
his release.
The purchaser of Mr. Oysters proper
ty at Westvillc is Marion Stouffer, a
North Georgetown blacksmith, who
will take possession soon. The premis-
es include good blacksmithing estab-
lishment, which is located just across
the Mahoning county line, the remain

HoBo's SMOOTH SCHEME.
Influenced Small Boys to Bring Him
Money,

Xenia, O., April Crank Brown,
a hobo, who was arrested and run out
OF town today, had the most original
system of getting money dishonesty
that has ever come to the notice Of the
local officers.
For several days he had been hang.
ing around town and had been forming
the acquaintance of numerous small
boys. These urchins he filled with
great ambition to get west and fight
Indians and lead q charming adven-
turous career. To the end that the
plans should be properly consummated
each boy was to get his hands on all
the money he could find and bring 1t
to Brown, who was to act as treasurer
and general manager of the expedition.
Fortunately his plans were discover.
ed before the boys could bring much
money into the common fund. and
Brown didn't succeed in accomplishing
his purpose.
Two small colored boys were
wrought up to such pitch that they
have disappeared from their homes and
it is presumed that Browns alluring
pictures of wild west life is respon-
sible for their running away.

J. Pierpont Morgan now owns about
all of the steel plants in the country,
owns most of the steamship companies
with which one may get out of the
country, controls what railroads he
does not own and is the great American
autocrat to whom the American people
pay tribute. He is more powerful than
the president, for that officials duties
are circumscribed by laws. while, in
the case Of Mr.. Morgan, no laws are so
framed as to apply. The last venture
OF this great capitalist is to own the
Panama canal, or, rather the Isthmian
canal, for whether 1t is known as the
Panama or Nicaraguan canal 1t is still
to be owned by Morgan, who is to hold
It in trust" for the United States.
There is some talk, after Mr.. Morgan
has secured what few things he has
overlooked, of changing the dies on
United States coins and making them
read I'm Morgan we trust" with the
accent on the trust.

Rural carriers are now required to de-

imately 25 miles. Carriers are to carry
supply of stamps, stamped envelopes

however, considering the great amount

Mail routes in the country are likely
now to develop into regular pony ex-

send in town for what they want, and

during sowing and harvesting time,
when horses cannot well be spared to
make the trip to the city.
