that the scales for the purpose of weigh
ing shall be kept on the counter or in
some other conspicuous place in all
bakeries. Tho law further provides
that unless the bread b« weighed the

fine of $lO and costs for each offense,

A bill has been introduced into

Hoard, composed of the Governor, Sec

missioner, whose duty shall be to
select from the school books coming

the bill ''those that shall be the cheap
est and best adapted for use in the
schools of Ohio." For the purpose of
securing material from which the se
lection is to be made advertisements
are to be publi.-hed inviting sealed pro
posals for furnishing a complete series
of school books for use in the commoa
schools of the State. These are to con
sist of spellers, readers, ai ithnietics,
grammars, geographies and histories of
the United States. Publishers sending
in proposals are required to give the
wholesale price at which the books will
be furni-hed. with five samples of each
book as standards of material and
workmanship, strict adherance to those
standards being exacted in every case.
The State Board is to open the propo
sals and select "the best books offered
at*j the lowest price." The books,
when selected, arc to be exclusively iu
use for the ensuing five years. The
State board is directed to fix the retail
price for each book at not over ten per
cent, advance on the publishers' accep
ted offer. This retail price is to be
printed on the cover of each book, and
a pemjltv of from $5 to S2O for each
offense is imposed upon every person
selling the book higher than the printed
rate.

range for their supply and distribution
The publishers are to supply Boards of
Education and dealers at 10 per cent,
discount from the designated retail
prices, and to exchange new books for
those thrown out of use by the law, at
half price. The publishers are required
to furnish printed lists of books with
the prices at wholesale, retail and for
exchange; these lists to be posted on
each school house, and at each place

—The very remarkable coincidence
of two churches being on fire at the
same time occured iu N**w Castle on
Sunday week and that there is no
loss of life to report is due to the bet
ter judgment ef some of those iu at
tendance. Shortly after Dr Warren,
of the First M E. Church, had com
menced his text the large audience
room began to fill with smoke and
soon the congregation one by one
began to leave. A moment later and
some one yelled '"fire." Men, women
and childreu began crowding the aisles,
and the little ones began crying for
help Some of the cooler heads dis
covered that the floor had caught fire
from a register and that it could
easilv be put out. Notwithstanding
their efforts to allay the fears of the
excited congregation, the people rush
ed pell-mell down the stairs, some of
the smaller oues being more less injur
ed. Several buckets of water were
thrown on the flames, and the panic
stricken people that had not yet
gotten out returned to their seats, and
the service went on. Almost the
same hour the congregation at Trinity
church became excited over a cloud of
smoke and the peculiar smell of burn
ing wood which permeated the atmos
phere. The congregation was not so
large as at the M. E. church, and the
people were more easily controlled,
though they made a quick rush for the
door. A "box in the basement had
taken fire iu some way from the fur
nace, and this had communicated the
flames to the shutters. The fire was
soon put out, and after a delay of a
few moments the services were oguin
begun.
