1t is indeed gratifying to note the in
creased enrolment in the public
schools over last year, and especially
to learn that the high school shows a
fine increase at the beginning OF the
year over month later date last
year The number of high school pu-
pills from the country ana smaller
towns of the county is becoming
larger each year, and many who are
not moving to The city are sending
their children here for better school
advantages. A well patroni2ed and ef-
ficient high school is one of the best
advertisements a city can have.
If any one has doubt as to the
value of Marshall county lard 1T would
be well for him 10 notice some OF the
sales that have ben made during the
past week. One large farm in Vienna
township sold for s27,40G, or an even
500 an acre, and forty acres near Gill
man brought s132.5O. Near Albion
eighty acres were sold at $40 per acre,
and a ten-acre tract brought $3.50.
These sales would indicate that there
must be some inducement to purchas-
ers to buy even high priced land.

TheSowners Of the Reflector insist
that they are not betting on the cleo
ton, but they have made sort of a
hoard of trade wager in their offer to
sell the Reflector newspaper property.
II Cummins wins in the primary, the
prospective purchaser is to pay $4,000
for the property, but he stands to get
the newspaper for 81, love and iaffec-
ton, if Cummins should lose. The
other fellow must be gamy enough to
bet the $4,000 against Cunmins, get
ting the paper whether he wins or
loses. Even tho takers may not crowd
the book maker, the offer is novel
enough to excite plenty of publicity.
The mayors observation about sa-
looms has established the fact that
they are source of, extreme annoy
ance to the police and he feels COM
PEELED to insist that they be kept on
the daylight streets. Saloons in the
dark corners do not appeal to him.
If the city council would now take the
mayors word for 1t that saloons are
public nuisance, and adopt meas
.ures which would reduce their num-
Der by half, the police would have one
load cut in two. A real estate man
told a newspaper man today that the
saloons were his worst enemy. You
see that fellow lives in one of my
houses" he said When he gets on
a drunk he don't work and he don't

CAT IS A MIGHTY HUNTER.

Groveporr claims the distinction OF
having the champion bird cat in Ohio.
The owner Of this cat is Lewellyn VII
kinsOn. At the beginning OF the birG
season the cat. which IS called Frank
would follow Wilkinson to the field,
make a circle of about 200 feet around
his master and upon discovering a quail
or a cOvey would rise on his hind legs
and stand perfectly still until the own
er would come up 10 him If a bird
was killed he would retrieve il. carry
ing il in his mouth, always catching IL
by the wing. u a bird was wounded
he would follow IL until IL was caught
and then would bring IL in Wilkinson
says that during the whole season he
has not lost a bird, and that the cat
has been with him every day that he
has hunted. Neither has the cat flushed
a single or a covey, but has always
given warning when the birds could be
expected. The cat was raised with some
bird pups. and when Wilkinson was
training them the cat would follow. and
he preSumes il gained its knowledge or
instinct from that training. He says
that the car has retrieved 154 birds dur
ing the season.
