The merry lambkin plavs;
The poorest of U3 now may wear
Our buttonhole bouquets.

Our Wealthy Men.
Much has been said in the newspapers of
men who have ma le large fortunei in com
paratively a few years in various business in
dustries. Many of thes* articles are written
by correspondents of promineut newspapers,
and copied into others of lesser note. Cor
respondents generally arc seldom men of bus
iness Qualifications and wrongfully picture
these n,er f ait'J tljeir business as a thing of
accident; this is not the c&sij \flth these we
have met. We had that \»heie men have
made larga fortunes by their own business
talent and industry they chose with samoity
and forethought such business as would lead
to success when handled with business judg
ment. No man has been brought brought
before the public as an example of success
both in wealth and magnitude of his busi
ness (oqtside of stork arid railroad men i
more prominently than i*r. G. G. Green of
Woodbury, N.lie is at the head'of many
large busiuess industries, and yet compara
tively a young man. When the fact that
August Flower, for dyspepsia and liver com
print and IJoßchee's German Syrup, for
coughs and lunjj trouble :, has* ;;rov.*u to a
wonderful sale in all tt n_e woil'cj, it
proves that it was not an accident or sponta
neous strike of wealth- His medicines are
recognized as valuable and established tome
dies and the business has grown gradually
and permanently during the last eighteeu
years on account not alone of I)r. Green's
ability as a business man or his "good luck,"

A Sad and Fatal Accident.
On Monday last while Mr. J. C
Martin liviug near Myoma station,
was rolling a piece of land with a
heavy roller, his little two-year old
boy came toddling toward him and
and cried to have his father take him
up and give him a ride on the ma

tin took up the boy and started the
team. He had not gone far when he
got off to remove a rock that was in
bis way,leaving the child in the seat
From some cause the horses gave a
sudden start, throwing the b>y be
tween the roller and 3ome brush, and
and catchiug him by.the neck, broke
it instantly, and the poor little fellow
was dead before he could be released
It was a moment of horror to the

Rev. Gailey Gets Bounced.
A dispatch from Mansfield, 0.,
dated April 21, said: The Mansfield
Presbytery of the United Presbyter
ian Church concluded tha trial of
Rev. John Gailey, of Millersburg, to
day. Gailey was charged with drunk
enness. He claimed that he took
stimulant for nervous trouble which
he called cerebral congestion and
from which he claims to have gutter
ed for ten years. Six medical certifi
cates to that effect were presented,
but in spite of them he was found
guilty and suspended. He was lock
ed up and fined at Uelleville, this
county, in February for drunkenness.
Mr. Gailey was at one time a preacher
of considerable eloqueuee, and held
charges in Butler, Pa., and other
towns of Western Pennsylvania. He
was then suspected of indulging oc
casionally in Hfjuor, but when at dif
ferent times he was privately called
to task by members of his congrega
tion, always excused his behavior
with the explanation that he was
compelled to take narcotics to kill
neuralgic pains to which he was sub
ject.
A Child Fatally Burned..
One of the saddest deaths that
ever occurred in this community was
that of little Agaes. the siif year-old
daughter of Casper Yaugh, the black
smith. Last Saturday afternoon,
while rompiog about the premises at
her home, near the Presbyterian
Church. Agnes and a neighbor's lit
tle gjd were attracted to a heap of
rubbish which had been raked together
in the garden near the house and set
on tire. The weather being quite
chilly tbs children endeavored to keep
warm by standing \yitb their hicks
to the fire. While in this position a
stjddeu gust of wind blew the fUmes
against little Agnes, setting lire to
her dress. She immediately ran
screamiug into the house, where her
mother seeing her all ablaze snatched
a piece qf carpet troip the f|oor, threw
it over the child, and after strenuous
efforts succeeded in extinguishing the
fire, but not ijntil it had burnt nearly
every stitch of clothing on the chiid's
body. Notwithstanding the kind and
tender treatment bestowed upon the
little sufferer, who \yas terribly burn
ed from the knees to the waist, she
lingered in much pain until Monday
night at 10 o'clock wheu she died.
The funeral took place Wednesday
afternoon, and the remains were in
terred in Cc,liin3' cemetery near tfair
vievjr.
Ia her efforts to save her daughter,
Mrs. Yaugh was so seriously burned
sbout the hands that she b s as no*

stricken and bereaved parents, who
have the sympathy of the entire com
munity, feel grateful to kind friends
and neighbors for doing all in their

fire on Satu.dav morning last. The
morning was rather cool and Mr.
Chas. Denniston, who had gone to
mill and Mr Morrison made ou a fire
with cobs. They sat down to warm
by it and shortly discovered the mill
to be on fire. The flames were first
beta on the roof, and if enough help
had been there it could probably have
been saved. The mill burned to

—The Franklin News thus gleeful

found some victims in that town:
"Two traveling fakirs recently vic
timized a number of peop'a ia this
citv by selling them a powder war
ranted to prevent lamps from explod
ing, which "powder" was nothing
more than common salt colored. The
same rascals are making a hit iu other
towns It is a pleasure to learn of
their success. Persons who buy
goods or notions from itinerating ped
dlers deserve to be bitteu. They are
always ready to take the bait, and
they are in their proper element when
floundering among the other suckers
in the net of the fool-catcher."
—A Beaver Falls young lady is so
full of electricity, says an exchange,
that in a recent experiment with a
steel hairpin worn in her hair all day
the pin was so thoroughly magnetiz
ed that it held up sixty-nine needles

When the hair of the young lady is
stroked in the dark it emits sparks,
and when she walks in a quiet room
a queer crackling noise cau be heard,
as if some orje was crushing nutshells
To touch her is to receive a shock a3
from a magnetic battery, and it is
said that recently a young mau put
his arms around her waist and was
knocked flat and almost paralyzed.

Copious rains have ended the
Texas drouth, thereby relieving the

—The thunder storm which passed
over this section lately proved fatal
at Xiles, O. Mrs. Michael Maloney
being struck by lightning and in
stantly killed, while in the act of
closing a window. The lightniDg
struck the chimney, killing the wo
man, and passing down, shattered a
cooking stovf a:.d badly stunned the

from a chair and kiliing a cat uuder

—An exceedingly pitiable case
came to light in the Chicago Court
of Insane Inquiry on Friday. On
Christmas Eve, while Max Dreher,
a twelve year-old boy, was sleeping
in the bakery at which he worked
two men approached tbo sleeping
boy. One of the men was dressed
iu a manner to represeut the devil,
while the other was attired ia a sheet
and assumed the role of a ghost.
The mea awakened young Dreher,
and, showing him a knife, threatened
to disembowel him, at the same time
cutting his wrist slightly. The boy
was so paralyzed by fright that he be
came a gibbering idiot and has re
mained so since that time.
—lsn'-t it awful to think of! There
is great excitement among the mem
bers of tb Massachusetts legislature
over charges of wholesale bribery
brought against them in connection
with some recent legislation. An
investigation is demanded by the
citizens of Boston aud Beverly, the
places affected, and it will probably
be made. Meantime, the Senate has
reconsidered its approval of the ob
noxious bill, and the money spent by
the lobby will prove to have been
hopelessly waster},

—There has been a large change in I
the clothing business in this place
daring the past few years. The time
was when only the cheapest grades of
goods were purchased and to get a
suit that would fit you was about an
impoaibility. Now this is all chang
ed. The material used in the cloth
ing is as good as the best and an or
dinary well made man can get as
good a fit as the average tailor would
give him. Much of this improve
ment in the quality and sty la of cloth
ing is due to Mr. John N. Patterson
He saw the necessity of the change
and made it. Now one can go to his
store and purchase a wedding suit
good enough for any man to "stand
up" in and it don't cost a small for
tune, either, llis clothing, from the
best to the cheapest, is made up in
the latest styles and it is impossible
to tell, when worn whether it was
"ready made" or "tailor made "

ascertain by examining the immense
stock pf clothing always on hand a t
