obituary.

Mrs. Sarah Woltz, nee Sarah
Rainer, was born March 18, 1s41,
and departed this life March B,
1907, aged 50 years, IL months
and days. She was born and
raised in the suburbs of Richmond,
Va, being of wealthy, slave
holding family, she always had q
very kind and affectionate regard
for the colored people, because of
the memories Of her childhood.
On January IS, 1858, she was
united in marriage with Peter
Woltz, Union soldier, and came
to Ohio. This union was blessed
with seven daughters, all of whom
are still living, except one, Ellen,
Mrs. Thomas Clark, who died
few years ago.
Mrs. Woltz suffered severe
stroke Of paralysis, about 20 years
ago, from which she never fully
recovered. About 5 years ago she
had something like another stroke
since which time she has been al
most helpless. All that kind hands
and loving hearts could do was
done to alleviate her suffering and
make her life as pleasant as pos
sible. She expressed herself as
being ready and anxious to go.
She leaves to mourn her depart
ure husband and SIX daughters,
many grandchildren and host of
other relatives and friends.
She was kind, faithful and
affectionate wife and mother, and
her death makes our hears very
sad, bat we feel that our loss is
her gain and we must submit to
the will of God.
Her body was laid to rest in
Union Cemetery, near Rockbridge,
with prayer and singing. The
funeral sermon will be preached
later, because of the absence of
one daughter.
Cup to that world of light,
Take us, dear Saviour!
There shall we ali unite
Happy foreverl
Where kindred spirits dwell,i
There may our music swell,
And time our Joys dispel,
Never-no neverl"

meant. The newcomer, enjoying

at another commercial man, who
was as far up tree as the clerk,
however, emo" he replied,
"thst's my name" Now, the
clerk had heard of the Indian girl
whose name was Three Hundred

parents who named their children
numerically One, Two, Three, ETC.,
as they arrived. But he had never
heard of a man like 81. LA, " and
he had been around some, too. So
he told the commercial man that
he would confer lasting favor if
he would explain now he had come
by such a rummy title as he

urbanely. "My fathers name

FROST IS ONLY SIX
WEEKS AWAY.
According to Those Who
Have Faith in the In
fallibility of Katydids.

Southeastern Ohio is experience
ing unusually cool August wealth
er. Those who, at the opening of
the belated spring, predicted a
late fall are now beginning to re-
wise their predictions according to
the methods of the most astute
weather prophets.
Farmers look with disfavor up
on the present "spell of weather" F"
"Must have hot nights in August
for corn," say they, and in asmuch
as the early part of the season was
very unfavorable for the maize
crop, they were hoping that all
shortcomings would be made up
by a damp, hot August and a late
fall. It's damp enough all right,
but woefully short on heat.
The effect of the present "cool
spell" will also be to cut short the
camping and picnic season,
Campers are returning to town
days and weeks ahead of their
schedule, and many picnic that
had been magnificently planned
has been abandoned.
The voice of the katydid il
heard in the land, presaging frost,
according to folklore, within siz
weeks.

Neighborhood Reunions,

A timely suggestion if for the
ladies of neighborhood, immed-
late friends, to select a pleasant
spot, as nearly as possible equally
accessible to all, and with their
children, we had almost said their
small children, have reunion
and picnic all their own.
If this little gathering can be
made up of old time friends, of
school day associates, it may be
made all,the pleasanter. Throw
off all the restraint forget the
household and family cares, and
live the old, free life over again.
Give the children liberty, and
let them enjoy themselves. What
if uome child gets hurt little and
cries minute or two, and what if
some or the children may display
faults or ill-temper? You are not
out to see today, but to have a
good time. Indulge in whatever
pastimes you used to enjoy--be a
girl again just far day, and you
will be a better woman for several
days.
No, you won't be lonesome, for
you will not have many such
picnics until the men and boys
will be with you.

Initiative and Referendum.

Mr.. George j. King, field secre-
tary Of the OHIO Direct Legisla
tion League, who is in the city to
finish up the county campaign
which be began last June, in sup
port of the Initiative and Referen-
dun mode of legislation, has Civ
en- representative of this paper
the present status of the campaign
situation.
Mr.. King expected to address
grange meeting at Silver Creek
last evening but was prevented
from doing so. He will remain in
this city about week and during
that time will address several
oranges, hitherto unvisited,
throughout the county. 1t will be
remembered that last June five
oranges in this county, namely
the Mcdonald, Friendship, Wash
ington, Wolf Greek and Green
wood; the Kenton Commercial
Club, T, & o. C. Labsr Council
and the Machinists Union had
signed resolutions the substance of
which was a request to Represen.
tAtive j. b. Humphrey to vote for
the proposed Initiative and Refer
endum. After accomplishing this
work Mr.. King left for other
counties.
"Atter leaving Kenton," said
Mr.. King, 81 went to Fulton coun-
ty. There L met Representative
Briggs and a committee from the
Pomona grange. After Mr.. Briggs
had been shown d number of peti,
tions signed by his constituents
urging him to vote for the pro-
posed measure he stated that he
would do so unless it was later
shown him that majority of his
constituents were against it. We
are counting his vote for the bill.
81 then made trip through
south eastern Ohio which resulted
in the securing of five votes, name
ly representatives Crawford of
Athens, Irwin of Meigs, Hawkins
of Jackson, Grover of Gallia, and
Bishop of Morgan. Regardless of
party affiliation or ever of class
distinctions. l have found the
people overwhelmingly IN favor of
the measure and they have so sig
nified it by petitions. ] had the
most hearty cooperation of the
grangers wherever went. The
grangers of Melgs Co. especially
were active In advocating this
mode of legislation. Likewise the
labor unions have come out for it,
and as a conservative estimate
will say nineteen out of twenty
business men whom l meet are
favorable to the measure and ready
to sign the petitions.
SIN general the state campaign
has been amazingly successful
about twenty members of the state
legislative in the counties which
personally have visited are ex
tremelY favorable and only two OF
three have openly said they woulC
ivote against it,"
