Large Warehouse.

Mr.. +. G. Hurt, the hustling furni-
turc man bought of Mr.. Sam Haselden
lot next to POwell's store. He will
erect large two story warehouse in
which to store furniture as his bust
ness has grown tn such an extent in
the past few months that his present
facilities are not large enough.
Mr.. Hurt deserves credit for the
business he has built up here, he has
by his strict business methods and
fairness to each individual made
friends with the people Of our County,
who show their appreciation by patro-
nizlng him. He buys his furniture
in large quantities and therefore gets
the benefit of low price, and can sell
you as cheap as you can buy else
where.

Good congregations have been present
at every service and the prospects are

Who Is to Blame.

The city of Newark was under the
local option law. but it was being
openly disregarded.
A number of the law abiding cit
liens of the community In and about
Newark had organized themselves in
to what they termed a law and order
league, for the purpose OF bringing
about the observance of the local op-
ton laws of that city. This organiza-
tiOn being assisted by the Anti Saloon
League employed ter detectives, as
they were authorized to do by the
laws of Ohio. and sent them to New
ark to ferret out the violatOrs of the
local option laws and bring them to
punishment. Carl Ellington was one
of the detectives.
In undertaking to arrest William o.
Howard who was accused of running
a "Blind Tiger" Howard resisted ar
rest and was killed by the detectives,
and Ellington was said to have fired
the shot.
Any body of citizens. we think. have
the moral and legal right to organize
themselves for the purpose of causing
the observance of the laws. Not only
have they the right to do this but we
think that 1t is the duty of every good
citizen to assist in having the laws
observed. The object Of the Anti
Saloon League is to prevent the IL
censed sale Of liquor and to prevent
the blind tiger after the license are
denied. In the case at Newark 1t was
acting under the law. The detectives
were not employed to take life but
sometimes unfortunate and regretta-
BILE things happen in the undertaking
Of the most praisw0rthy acts. The
Anti Saloon League was undertaking
to do a lawful, moral and right thing
In q legal way and are therefore not
to hear any blame for the unfortunate
tragedy which resulted.

I the Pleiades, which was regarded as
the center of the universe.
This little group of stars has tsrong-
/ ~ appealed to writer's of all ages. and
| the mysticism concerning the seven
stars goes back even as far as the
book of the prohpet Job. The sweet
Influence of the PleiadeS" seem to have
appealed TO all nations and tribes and
there is an almost universal legend OF
the lost sister," Such a widespread
belief must find its true explanation in
fact; but which in truth Is the lost
Pleiad is hard to know. The six stars
readily visible are: Alcyone, the bright
est of the third magnitude; Electra and
Atlas, slightly brighter than the fourth
magnitude; Maia, of the fourth magni-
tude with Merope, and Taygeta slightly
fainter. In addition to these six, Ce-
laned, which gives but one-third the
light of Taygeta, can be readily seen,
as can also Pleione. These eight stars
are easily visible to anyone Moderate
~ keen eyes may count nine Pleiades,
while exceptionally keen vision reveals
II or even II. With two inch tele
scope nearly 100 can be counted in the
group, while modern photographs re-
veal over 1000.
The peculiar character of the spec
trum Of Pleione has led professor Pick
ering TO the belief that 1t formerly
shone with temporary brilliancy, and
that it is the lost Pleiad. As matter
OF fact. this star is now twice as
bright as it was, by Argelander's esti-
mate, so years ago.
An Interesting Group.
Is this interesting group physically
connected in any manner, or are the
stars forming it at various distances
away. and merely brought into line &C
cidentally with no real connection?
One bond of union is found from the
fact that they are all moving athwart
the sky in parallel paths, or in other
words, they are all drifting through
space together. Other points of re-
semblance make US sure that they
form a really connected group, and
not an accidental one,
Observations since Maedler's time
have not confirmed his hypothesis, and
there is not sufficient basis for the
notion that Alcyone is the center of the
universe. None the less, it will be in
teresting to compare our. own sun with
this distant sun, and to estimate its
brightness if it were at the distance Of
the Pleiades- 1t is generally conceded !
that this group is very remote. so far |
off, in fact, that il takes light trtv- |

Of $4,000 miles per second as much as /
