its population is estimated to be in the
neighborhood of 5000, 900 and by the
terms of its constitution military serv-

could bring together a force sufficient
to overcome at any time the concen-

been the custom of the various revoIu-

to estimate the military strength of
their opponents in numbers reaching far
into the thousands that it is somewhat
difficult to obtain an exact idea of the

The Queen and browning.

Apropos of Browning, there is story
In a recent number of the Culver in
connection with the Queens reading
Of that poet:
The Queen has always been a warm
admirer Of the poems OF Mrs. Brown
ing, the one on She Wept to Wear q
Crown having a tender personal refer
ence. THE Cry Of the Children" ap-
pealed especially to the Queens heart.
She appreciated the fine thought in the
works of Mr.. Browning, and frequently
had his poems read aloud to her. Sir
Theodore Martin had been requested
by Her Majesty to read aloud from
THE Ring and the Book Sir Theo,
dore was courtier enough to make q
cautious study before hand of the poem,
and he placed marginal notes as dam
ger signals against passages Of doubt
full propriety. The marked copy
chanced to come into the hands of q
thoughtless court lady. Il have so en-
joyed this wonderful work." she said to
a friend, "and 1t has been such an ad-
vantage to read it after the Queen, for
she has placed marks against the most
beautiful part; and, oh, what exquisits
taste the dear Queen hasl" she added,
pointing to the danger signals of Sir
Theodore Martin.

Fruit Dressing for Shoes.

The best dressing for black leather
Is orange juice. Take slice of quarter
OF an orange and rub 1t thoroughly
all over the shoe or boot and allow It to
dry. Then brush briskly with q soft
brush until 1t shines like looking
glass. -
A most convenient dressing for tan
shoes is the inside of a banana skin.
This is rubbed well and evenly all over
the shoe and removes all spots and
dirt, as we'll as gives a fine polish,
which last is brought out by using a
flannel cloth for wiping dry and anoth-
er clean flannel for polishing. I,

oil. A fine sweet oil or vaseline Is

essary to take clean sponge and clean

with flannel OF other soft cloth which

We further note In our examination
of the report submitted to us that the

therefore recommend a more rigid en-

rigorous penal institution. that by way
of giving the county the benefit of the
enforced expense entailed upon II that
the the prsoners of said institution RGp0b be con-
tributcd TO the betterment of the roads

ers Will benefit the greatest number OF
people, and make such roads perma-
nent and lasting, and that during each
year certain amount of roadway be
made substantial and permanent on
some leading thoroughfare of the county
And we respectfully urge that at no
time ought any prisoners be allowed TO
be IDLE, that some system of labor be
inaugurated so as to keep all of the
prisoners at work all the time; and
that this plan contemplate continued
and permanent system of road building
TO extend Indefinitely into the future.
In making this recommendation we
cast no reflection upon the workhousa
management, and note that the deficit
Is less this year than IL has been for
number of years; nevertheless the fact
remains that the institution has been
and Is now very heavy burden upon
the tax payers of Stark county. aud
we believe that some compensation
ought to inure to the general good Of
the county, other than the reformation
and punishment of prisoners, and are
of opinion that an improvement of the
roads Is paramount necessity, and
that such work is q usual employment
for prisoners I'm other states.
In the payment of the bills of various
state institutions rendered the County
for INDECENT persons who are confined
I'm said institutions, we commend tha
course OF the Auditor in requiring that
such bills show the residence. the par

may be saved a considerable Item Of

DOMESTIC ECONOMY.
Tho Tendency Is Marked Among Even
the wealthy in New York.

Tho Tendency Is Marked Among Even
the wealthy in New York.
Chief among the tendencies of the
moment as regards representative New
York women is a most marked idea of
economy. Economy in every way, even
to the saving of the pennies, let alone
the dollars, has come to be a growing
enthusiasm. That this Is not theory,
but a genuine condition, and that wo-
men with the biggest sort of incomes
are actually practicing what they
preach can be learned from all the
prominent tradesmen, as war is making
many Of them genuinely blue, for the
accounts Of many OF their best custom-
ers are falling decidedly off.
The idea Of the day is that the coun-
try may sooner OF later need money,
that at all events scores of new chari-
ties and aid societies will probably
spring up, and that they themselves
should begin to save now in order that
they may be prepared when the call
for funds comes. That is the feeling
among the women of the sets" and
they are showing their willingness 10
be ready by making all sorts OF little
sacrifices.
This has not been told in print. for
the reason that these women have, nat
urally, not talked about it, but it is,
nevertheless, a fact. The average wo-
man of fashion is having about third
as many new gowns as usual, and she
is buying far less in the way Of frip-
peries and novelties. A much smaller
quantity Of goods is being ordered daily
from the butcher the haker and the
are actually keeping close watch on
the sugar and butter In their pantrles,
to see that neither of these articles is
wasted. This on the part of women
who have never done such a thing in
all their lives before. Servants are be-
ing discharged and establishments
quietly reduced.-New York Sun.

that the statutes of Ohio, to wit, Sec

burial of INDECENT soldiers, sailors, and

exceed fifty dollars ts5oOO In each case.
We note that this sum of money is al
