1853, when gold was first dis

Prior to that time thefe had
been but little settling in this
region. Spanish explorers had
traversed the country in the lat

part of the Louisiana Purchase
1t came into the possession of
the United States in 1903. Off
GERS of the United States army
were sent out to explore this
wilderness among whom were
Lieutenant Pike in 1906, and it,
was after him that Pixies Peak
was named. In 1919 Colonel
Long made extensive explora-
lions and he was followed in
1912 by Fremont, whose activi-
ties in the Mexican war brought
him into much prominence. At
the close of the Mexican war,
Mexico coded her rights to this
territory to the United. States,
but it was considered q barren
waste and unattractive for set
tiers.
Then in 1853 came the dis
covery Of gold in the bed of Dry
Greek, a few rmiles south of
where Denver now stands. The

was then called the Pixies Peak

a town of one thousand inhabi--

grown into a big city with news

TRACKLESS
TROLLEY CARS

Attract Attention of Railway Men
The trollibus, or trackless trolley
car, is attracting the interest oil city
street railway commissioners and
electric railway operators of Ohio be-
cause of the present high cost OF
electric railway construction and the
competition from the motor bus.
Akron may be the first city in
Ohio to install the trollibus, city
officials now having it under serious
consideration.
The trollibus has an external ap-
pearance similar to the single truck
pay-as -you=enter trolley car, except
that it has rubber tired wheels and
it's trolley pole mounted well to the
front,
Since there are no rails to com
plete the electric current, as the
case with the trolley car, two trolley
wires are necessary, one to carry the
current to the motors and the other
for its return. These are strung
parallel, IA inches apart, and the
sling trolley pole is divided SO thai
one wire will be in each section al
all times. The car has a leeway OF

The car is operated similar to thu

by large circular wheel, as useC
by the auto, and the power is applied

This law goes into effect August
18th. The Ohio State Automobile
Association of Columbus through it's
secretary Mr.. Charles G, James will
give information to those desiring it
and will send sample forms of Bills
of Sale and sworn statements to
those who request them. The AS
sociation makes the following state
ment:
Although the Attorney generals
office has ruled that peraons owning
new motor vehicles purchased before
August II from a manufacturer or
manufacturers agent will not have
to file any sworn statement Of own
ershiH, officials of the state assoeia-
tion estimate that fifty per cent of
the motorists of the state will have
to file such statements by reason of
possessing cars that have had pre-
vious ownership when the law goes
into effect.
It may be said however, that the
that time from whatever source it
purchase Of motor vehicle after
may come, will under the anti-theft
act neeessitate in every case where
the ownership of any kind of motor
vehicle is transferred in any man.

STORIESOF AMERICA AND AMERICANS
How General Harrison Held the Army Horse on the
Lakeside Peninsula. Old Brush Fence
at the Portage Outlet.

tage river from between them a
peninsula, the isthrnus of which is
only one mile and a half across. A
fence of that length and a sufficient
guard left there would make all the
norses of the army safe. 1t would
enclose fifty or sixty thousand acres,
IN which are many cultivated fields,
which having been abandoned are
now grown up with the finest grass.
Your sick had better be left at Upper
Sandusky or here. - HARRISON.
Within half an hour after this letter
was written Gen. Harrison received
Perry's famous dispatch announcing
his success. Gov Shelby received
the news at Fort Ball.
Without going into further details
rs to the progress of the troops from
different quarters to the lake and
leaylng the story of Harrison's fur
ther campaign to itself, the Kentucky
troops which were encamped across
the narrowest part of the isthmus
referred to in Gen. Harrison's letter
constructed a strong fence of brush
and timber ''from the Portage to the
Sandusky rivers" each regiment
building a section. Within the
peninsula enclosed by this fence the
horses of the army were turned
loose under guard of troops cornpris-
ing one-twelfth of each regiment
from the Kentucky forces.
After the annihiliation of Proctor's
army and his flight, the routing o1
the Indian forces under Tecumseh
where the latter was killed, (battk
of the Thames) most OF the army
returned on foot. They came by thC
way of Frenchtown (Monroe) Miam
(Maumee bay) and down shore t.
the Portage where they had embark
ed. arriving October 10Th.
The horses were again collected
by forming a line Of fifteen hundred
men across the lower end of thu
peninsula, before which force thu
animals were driven up to the mar
row neck where the fence was AM
each delivered to the owner.
Now we know hte mystery of tn
finding of the old pieces of brides
saddles and accontrement on tn
peninsula many years after. The.
were left behind by the soldiers VIII

RESOLUTIONS OF
RESPECT

The members of the Wauseon
Chapter Daughters of the American
Revolution desire to pay tribute Of
love and appreciation TO the memory
of katherine Barnes Ham whose life
work IS finished. A beautiful soul
has passed INTO the great beyond and
the vacancy and the shadow will be
deeply realized by all the members of
this organization. She was de-
scendant of John Alden who came in
the Mayflower.
AS one of the charter members of
Wauseon Chapter, she gave it years
of faithful service and unfailing de-
votion and in her passing it has suf-
fered an lrreparable loss. Her place
cannot be filled, but her influence will
not be lost. Tho her visible pre-
sence is withdrawn, the spirit of her
life remains to inspire our future ell
forts, to reach the highest ideals.
One of her noblest characteristics
was charity and her helpful sympa-
thy. Her life was like a beautiful
poem and every one who was fortu-
nate in gaining the frleadshIp OF
Mrs. Ham was the better Tor having
known her. We sympathize most
lovingly with those who weep for
her. For them there are left sweet
memories and fond hopes, and the
knowledge that she has passed on,
into wider field for the expression
of her activities,
"A little while and red
The flush of dawn shall thrill,
The gray clouds over head
The far snow crusted hill.
And through the wide flung gate
Gods morning bugles blow,
1t is not long to wait,
1t is not far to CO."

EARLY FARM SOCIETIES
STIMULATED
PRODUCTION

Early agricultural records secured
By the Ohio Experiment Station show
thu. among the first associations
formed "for promoting agriculture"
was a society organized by Martin
Baum, in 1918, at Cincinnati.
About the same time an agricul-
tural society was organized in
Youngstown, A year or two later
Washington county followed with an
agricultural society,
In an early crop growing contest
a Washington county farmer produc-
ed more than 100 bushels of corn to
the acre.
In 1888 a society organized in Del
aware county offered $15O as a prize
for the best pair of pigs; So for the
best 10 yards of linen and rs cents
for the best pair of woolen socks.
The organization and reorganiza-
ton of these societies finally led to
the formation of the State Board of
Agriculture in 1874.
The Miami Exporting Company,
organized in 1903, started the first
bank in Ohio.
The Licking Exporting Company,
organized at Granville in 1920, sold
pork for $1.25 per 100 pounds in
Canada. The hogs were driven to
Sandusky where they were slaugh-
tered and the pork shipped by boat
to Montreal.

On account of this water route
