entered at Postoffice Hillsboro, Ohio,
as second class matter.

The NEWS. HERALD has at last made
a slight advance In its advertising
rates.
This step has long been contem-
plated.
The prices for advertising space In
all the Hillsboro papers have long
been lower than those generally pre-
vailing elsewhere.
- In most other towns papers OF the
same character, many of them with
much smaller circulations, get much
better rates.
The price of paper has been increas-
ing until it is now so per centum
higher than it was a few years ago.
and the cost of labor is also higher.
The circulation, in the case of the
NEws.HERALD, at least, has grown
steadily until an advertisement Is
carried to a much larger number of
readers than few years ago.
Newspapers are really facing the
probability of losing money should the
ratios of the past few years, as 20
these points, continue the same.
Hence the advance.
The increase in prices will not be
unreasonable. In fact the rates will
still be low.
We hope our patrons will appreciate
the situation confronting US.

He had been troubled great deal

therein large rat, in color absolute

is customary. Mr.. Heath captured
him uninjured and has transferred him
to a smaller cage. He intends to

Willie Frank, aged IA, of 240l South
Broadway, a messenger boy employed
at the Worlds Fair grounds by the
Western Union telegraph company,
fell from the aagpole at the top OF
the DeForest tower on the Exposition
grounds, $50 feet in height, landed on
sloping roof 300 feet above the
ground, rolled like marble down the
slantipg roof toward the edge. in full

watching the performance from the
ground, and was saved from death by
an accident as fortunate as It was
peculiar.

cept for badly lacerated face he
was not hurt.
Willie's hair-raising feat occurred
at noon yesterday, and was the result
of a wager with fellow-messenger
boy that he could climb to the top of
the flagstaff and:remove several elec-
trio light globes. His ascent was
watched by number of Administra-
tion building attaches, who we're at
tracted by the shouts of warning from
Willies companions. The boy ap-
parently lost his nerve when he reach
ed the dizzy height, for after remov-
ing one of the globes he tainted. He
dropped is the sloping roof, bounding
down its surface like rubber ball to-
ward the open scuttle hole. The stair
way stopped his descent, and he was
rescued by his companions. When
carried to the Press building, where
his hurts we're dressed, he asked If he
had won the bet Globe Democrat.

mayor of that place last spring year,
over good man. The wags had no

and only started out to give the good
man "chase for his money" When
the vote was counted in the evening
it was found that the midget was
elected by vote or two. The next
thing was to get rid of him. The
governor of the state was appealed to,
under that provision of the code
which allows him to remove for GER

lect of duty-but he refused to take
part, on the ground that the citizens
of the town having put an alleged dis
grace upon themselves must bear with
