The ottawa Herald tells an interest
ing little story of how the new Metho-
dist church, just dedicated at Ottawa,
came to be built One day about a
year ago the Rev. Mr.. Nusbaum saun-
tered into the office of Mr.. Rohrbaugh,
Ottawas rich man. He found Rohr-
baugh reading paper, so he picked
up a paper on his own account and
commenced to read. BY and by he read
out loud fictitious death notice, COM
menting, "Died, at 1890 last night, in
Ottawa, Sam Rohrbaugh." This was
followed by a recital of Rohrbaugh's
many good deeds. Among other things
invented by the preacher was the
statement that Rohrbaugh had left as
q memorial the finest Methodist church
in the West. (Which of those things
would you rather have said about you
when you are deadg' quizzically asked
the preacher. Brother Nusbaum,"
said Rohrbaugh, Il will give you 81
for every 81 you can raise for a new
church." And thus the fine edifice at
ottawa came into observation-disclosures
