Our trade with Mexico is growing
very rapidly, a circumstance which is
due to the fact that
more people from

ing hold in the old republic and produc-
ing things which are of high CONNER
cial value. Mexico is a country whose
possibilities have by no means been
tested. Her climate is well adapted
for raising coffee, sugar and rubber,
three articles which enter so largely
into our commercial welfare. The
rubber trade is especially profitable
now, as it is entering into the manu-
facture of so many things which some
years ago were not thought of. con-
sular report says that during the first
four months of the current fiscal year
the exports from Mexico to the United
States amounted to $40,302, 1878, against
$3S,516,262 in the corresponding
months of the previous fiscal year. The
imports rose correspondingly the
amount of American merchandise
brought in the first four months of this
fiscal year showing net gain of nearly
100000 gold value. Americancapital
and enterprise are doing wonders for

PERRYSBURG TWP. ROADS,

Roads in the township should be
improved and our people will upon
investigation, find that the cost will
not be so great burden as many sup-
pose.
The road tax which all tax payers
now pay into the general road fund
can be used upon our roads if the
people take the necessary steps to ac
complish such results.
In Henry township the people have
very wisely been looking after road
improvement and each year certain
amount of stone road is built.
A special TAX can be assessed upon
the township for road improvement
which need not be greatly in excess
of the tax now assessed but which is
not now used upon any particular
road and thereforeis ofbut little bene-
fit.
Upon petition of 100 or more tax
payers of the township the Trustees
are empowered to submit the ques-
tion to vote of the people of the
township at the next general election
and if a majority is favorable, the
Trustees shall levy annually an
amount not exceeding six mills upon
the dollar valuation.
The tax is to be used for improve
ment of roads in the township only
and no tax will then be assessed fol
general road fund.
By improving a part of the roao
each year, the tax will beexceedingly
light and in a short time the roads
will be in first class condition.

TOLEDO ADJUSTMENTS.

Previous presentation has not af- |
fected the interest in "F'lorodora" and
there are many reasons to believe that
when the great Fisher e Ryley sue
cess returns to the Valentine theater
for q brief engagement this week Sat
urday afternoon and evening, it will
be greeted by hundreds of the patrons
of the theater who have on another
occasion witched the Pretty Maidens
nod and listened to their bewitchi9g
little ditty. Nothing prettier to the
eye, nor more enjoyable to the ear
than "Florodora" has been devised.
The theater-goers Of two continents.
have become pretty well acquainted
with it's bewitching melodies. The
book is by Owen Hall, who also con-
tributed to the librettos of "The Gel

yer Slipper" and "An Artists Model"
"F1orodora" has gained the stamp of
approval everywhere. 1t is a clean and
wholesome bunch of components in
which the most captious critics would
hesitate to pick flaw.
The bill at the Arcade theatre next
week, beginning with Sunday after
noon, has been selected with unusual

class animal act that is said to be un-
usually entertaining. 1t is Balleranis
| dogs, said to be the Human CANNES.
Another act that is bound to be highly
interesting and entertaining is the
trapese performance of Clara Baller-
AMI who is is said to be the most beau
tiful woman of the time, either on or
off the stage, and the most graceful
| of aerial performers. She is a for
eign aerialist, and her work consists
chiefly of posing on trapese.

ject being to meet expenses.
Enough tickets have been guar

We will have to rely onsthe ten
cents extra for reserved-seat tickets
each night to pay for the opera

these entertainments could only
be secured at great expense. the
Club felt some apprehension about
undertaking the course. and trust
the public will give them a full
patronage each night.
