The New Minister.

A large audience greeted Rev,
Jesse Swank, Sabbath morning, to
to hear his first sermon, to give him
a welcome to Bellefontaine. The
impression he made was good one
and the hundreds who felt they could
aot give up DIR. Campbell, have al
ready opened their hearts to the new
minister. Mr.. Swank is a young man,
some folks thought too young, for so
great a change. But he has served
as pastor for thirteen years, one year
at Gettysburg, two at Zanesfeld,
three at West Liberty, and seven at
Napoleon. Looks as if he were doing
better every year, and the REPUBLI-
CAN is glad to extend him and his
family hearty welcome to Bellefon-
taine.

THE ANDIRON STORY
Its Lesson To Be Repeat
ed In BellefOntdine.
How Easily Men Are Induced
to Spend the Peoples
Money.

The old story of the Farmers and
irons, is repeated over and over again
in private and public life. The
more's the worse.
The farmers wife induced him to
buy a pair of brass andirons-the
old ones were unsightly. Then new
tongs and shovel we're needed, the
old ones looked so cheap, alongside
the nice new andirons. Then the
cooking utensils had to be replaced
by more modern ones, and one change
necessitated another till a new house
had to be built, new barn put up, a
harness for the horse and new horse
for the carriage: and a new husband
had to be secured to take the place
of the old one who was done to death.
1t looks a little just now as if Belle
fontaine were being worked the same
way in her public utilities. The dali
lies announce that the water works
building is to be replaced by new
one, because the present building
cannot be repaired. Two or three
years ago. we were getting along
very well with the old engines and
the present building; and the works
were making money for the city.
Then, somebody discovered that the
old pumps hadn't the capacity to SUP
ply the city. Yet they had done so
until that time, and did SO after the
new engine was put in, but couldn't
get more than two-thirds the supply
of water they could pump, because
the connecting pipe was not nearly
large enough to supply the pumps,
and never had been.
Well, we got the new engine, and
it couldn't get near enough water to
supply its capacious NAV; then new
wells had to be drilled; and then an
"air-lift" had to be put in. This was
done at considerable expense. but 1t
took almost as much coal to run this
lift as 1t did to run the new pump,
and an additional fireman or assist
ant engineer had to be hired. Then
we were told we had oceans of
water, water Ito burn,r and to go
ahead and sprinkle ad libitum. But
10! this summer we were informed that
the supply was running short, and
sprinkling hours were again limited.
Now we are told the building is not
worth repairing, and new one must
be built,
1t ls about time to call a halt. The
building was damaged in order to
give proper stabling for the new en-
gine. But with a little encourage
ment, 1t is good for ten years to come.
What we want now Is returns from
the works. They will yield good in
come. and they ought to be made to
pay off the debt before any more
money is expended. Keep taxes
down. Make no repairs that are not
absolutely necessary. Not one cent
for grease nor "ornamentation.r

Grafton Moss, the twelve-year-old
grandson of Mr.. and Mrs. Silas Moss,
died Saturday morning of lockjaw.
A few days before school opened the
boy stepped on a rusty nail. The us

wound seemed to be healed so
that he attended school until Friday
when his throat became sore. In a
short time he was in commissions and
suffered agony until death released
him. A few hours before his dc ath
in answer to the question "Am go
ing to die his grandmother said,
my boy, you will live forever" The
young lad understood and before long
he said ''Oh look, see Jesus walking
on the water, he is coming for me-
and in a short time the sufferings
were ended, the Savior had come
for the boy. Funeral services were
Sunday by the Rev. Mr..
Grayson.

A Horrible Death.

Mrs. James Denny received word
by telephone last week that her
mother had been burned to death
near Middletown. Mrs. Outlet was
trying to put out a fire in her neigh

ran to the street, to throw herself
into the canal two squares away. A
policeman tore the burning clothes
from her body, and she was carried
into house nearby where she died
in agony a short time after.
