In the Wrong House The folio wing story concerning Pre siding Elder Slutz of the Barnesvilk district, anpcarcd in the Portsmoutl Times during the conference: Elder who is the conference guest at the home of George D. Sel by, fad a harrowing experience, last night. Conference held a very late session and after it was over Elder Slut? started for the Selby home on-Gallia Ho lost his bearings and got into the Wolfe boarding house ad joining. He wandered about therein in search of his bed and finally groped his way into the bath room, where he realized he was lost. lie made a desperate effort to locate himself, or got outside and finally awakened one of the female boarders', who, realizing his predicament, came out into the hall and offered him some matches.

It is said the pleadings of the food man not to be taken for a burglar were really piteous. He was so confused he had to be shown Lo the door and shown the house, just the way. In the morning he went over to the Wolfe household and made the most profuse apologies. Washington Fair Thursday is usually the great day of the Washington fair and this year was no exception. A large crowd was present and remained i the day.

The morning shower did not extend as far east as the fair grounds and the dust made it rather unpleasant but a better naturecl large crowd it would be hard to find. The balloon ascension as entirely successful. It arose to a great height and the parachute behaved admirably in its do- scent. The races were exciting, though not of the fast or record breaking order and stop watches in the crowd indicated oven faster time than the official report. The last race between the horses owned by Jeffries and If ugh McCrcary was a regular whirlwind, the horses wore driven hard ana the race was understood to be to break the record of the track.

The award was gi ven to the McCreary marc by a very narrow margin. There was evidently a blind tiger somewhere on the grounds as the evidences of the' free use of whisky or some form of strong drink became quite apparent during the afternoon. The management cannot afford to let this go unchallenged. Three Thousand Men Idle. Au Interested Descendant.

Guernsey, Sept. 30, 1903. Editors of the Joil'ersouian, Cambridge, Ohio, Gentlemen: 1 was very much interested in the article of last week's paper of "Guernsey County History" signed A number of the persons named was of interest to mo as well as places and dates. It would greatly interest me and scores of others in the compass of the paper to have a write up of the eastern part of the county's early history. My personal interests center around Fairview, Middlebourno and Washington.

Mv grandfather settled there in 1801, three miles west of Fairview. It has been handed down in our family that he named the township ''Oxford 1 and I think he named the county. Guernsey is a historical name with the Whcrrys both in Pennsylvania and in Ireland. In the County Archives 1 i you will find his name. 1 have in my possession a bond in which David Wherry was commissioner.

The obligations were for build- ng a bridge over Wills creek. I think Major William Henderson witnessed the instrument. It is dated 1807. The points of interest are: When and by whom was Fairview laid out? What year was the National Pike uiilt, For many years the elec- ilons were held at my grandfather's iciuse in Oxford township. J.

Ballantine Duff, proprietors of the Byesville Planing Mill, arc enlarging their plant by erecting a large office room on the south side of their building.

Archdeacon Matthews will leave Monday to spend several weeks in A irginia, the guest of Col. Dclaney and of Mrs. Bives, mother of Amelia Rives, the authoress.

Mr- Matthews' fine education and his great i as a preacher, are well known and appreciated by the cultured people of Virginia, ft is at their urgent request that he icturns to preach in the churches where he had done great good. Bishop i considers" Mr. Matthews the most brilliant preacher in this Diocese, but fears he may not be able to keep him in Ba'rncs- ville Enterprise. A traveler says all along the ways in Kansas wheat in sacks lies piled up awaiting transportation to market and the railroads are utterly to cope with the demand. Dry weather will be a welcome boon to these wheat producers.

OUR of the greatest discoveries in recent years is reported from Alaska, where it is said tin ore one feet in thickness has been found, tho largest kown in the world. The world's present output is given at 100.000 tons, coming in small quantities from different places. The Dispatch says: ''If Alaska is to supply ibis deficiency by the discovery a't Nome the nearness of the mine's to the coast, i i five miles of the Bering sea, 121 miles northwest of St Michaels and 2,700 from Seattle bv sea, guarantees cheap water transpoi- tation for the product. An unpiecc- dentcd expansion for the tinplatc industry of the United States would appear to be in prospect, if the Lost river report proves well founded." Another religious fad is processing finely in Brooklyn and the leader, Mrs. Beatrice Strafford, who claims to be Christ developed over again now in female form, will no doubt soon make more money than she could have done in a long life in her former piofession, an actress.

As money makers some religious fads outstrip the trusts. The leader styles a a Hysteria," mysterious lood for tho soul. She has surrounded herself i reincarnated Biblical celebrities, such as Matthew, Luke, Peter, who are known in the world as every day citizens. She has only to persist and a i a i an air of mystery to pull the wool over the eyes of thousands who will contribute liberally to her income. "What fools we mortals be." Too Fast for peculiar circumstance in connection with the B.

O. railroad wreck at Norwich last week, was the fact that a car of nitrate of soda was melted by the intense heat of the fire and formed a viscous liquid that ran down over the hill at the south of the track and hardened into a sort of greenish slag, resembling that which comes from a Wast furnace. The stream of thick, red hot liquid came so quickly thai several chickens, which ran to escape, were caught in the stream and roasted alive. After everything had cooled down they were found in the posi tion of i and fast imbedded in the hard substance, and roasted to a turn. Hundreds of pieces of this slay wore carried away by visitors to the scone of the wreck as souvenirs.

--Zanesvilie Eecorder. A special from Bridgeport says: "Twenty-five clerks and minor ofll- cials of the Aetna Standard plant of the American Sheet Steel company of this city were discharged Tuesday morning by orders from the head offices of the company, and today 3000 employes are idle. All skilled'labor at the mines has been discharged." Miss Dreibelbiss, of Zanesvilie, is visiting Cambridge friends.

The union reception given Misses Anna McConaughy and Laura Olel- and in the First United Presbyterian hurch on Tuesday evening of last week, was largely attended. The 31oornficld and Lebanon congrega- icns were well represented, and the different churches of the town contributed largely to swell the audience. An interesting program prepared for the occasion, with Otho McICin- ney in charge was carried out in full. An opening prayer was made by Dr.

G. W. Moorehead, of Xonia. The Sabbath school of the First church was represented by N. A.

Geyor, the Young People's Society by Miss Emma Bell and the Missionary society by Mrs. Dr. McCrcary. The Sabbath school of the Second church was represented by F. T.

Kyle, and the Young People's society by VV. W. McCall. Both spoke entertainingly of the work that had been done in that church by Miss Clcland while in college here. Miss Maude Lorimer represented the Y.

W. C. A. of the college. xThe choir sang several beautiful and appropriate selections, and the benediction was pronounced by Rev.

J. A. Kennedy. At the close of the program a short time was spent in hand-shaking and bidding farewell to the outgoing Concord Enterprise. For the Bride.

For some time past Mayor Smallwood and Chief of Police Blair have suspected that liobcrt Sidles, who conducts a restaurant on West Wheeling avenue, was violating the local option law and was selling whisky, but while they were almost sure of it they were, unable to obtain the necessary evidence to make a case against Sidles. One dav last week Chief Blair went to the restaurant and informed Mrs. Skilos, who happened to be back of the counter at the time, that he was positive that whisky was being sold there and that they would get into trouble it 1 ho could secure the evidence. Mrs, Skiles at first denied that whisky was being sold there and later on said that at any rate she was not selling it.

On Tuesday Chief Blair determined to search the house in which the restaurant is conducted, and with cer Long went Mr. Long was sent to the rear door while Mr. Blair entered the front door. Mrs. Skiles was again behind the counter and in answer to the Chief's question as to where her husband was said that he was upstairs.

In the meantime Lang had found Sidles in one of the rooms upstairs and brought him down. There were a number of boxes and barrels in the room at the rear of the restaurant and when Mr. Blair asked what was in them Skiles said they contained things used i the restaurant and removed the Jid of one of the boxes in which was some cheese. The Chief said he cared nothing for what was in the boxes but that it was the five barrels that interested him. Sidles was made to remove the top of one of the barrels when i was to be of pint battles of whisky.

Skiles then saw that it was no use to fight anv longer and said that all the other barieis contained' the same as the one opened. Chief a i then ordered Oniccr Long to lock Skiles up which clone and in the afternoon ho was arraigned before Mayor Smallwood on the charge of keeping a place. Skiles plead guilty and was fined $50 and costs and a paying the bill he was released on condition that he send all five barrels of whisky back to the man from whom he bought them and Olliuer Long was sent with him to see that he did so. The whisky was sent to Bridgeport, Byesville Clippings. Frank Siegiriecl Located.

It has always been our i i and it has been repeatedly expressed in these columns, that the city auhori- tics have ample a i to enforce tho laws and reduce their violation to a i i or suppress it entirely in the city of Cambridge. The action of the Chief of Police and Officer Long in the case of Skiles, who was surreptitiously selling whisky in violation of law and his prompt punishment by the Mayor lor his misdemeanor amply attest the correctness of our position. Thcie i not bo a man made on strong i sol in Cam bridge in violation of law once a month, if the officials keep up the work begun in tho kilos case This is far better than any business that can be operated. Th. law abiding people of Canibtidge foe that the officials did their dut and trust and believe that the lessor will sink deep into the minds of a others who may bo violating the law's and promptly end it.

To the Soldiers' Committees of the townships of Guernsey county: The Soldiers' Commission' of Guernsey county will meet at the Auditor's office in Cambridge at their fall session on VVednesday, November 4th, 1903. It is important that all the reports be returned to the commission by that date. Townships that have already sent in reports can send in additional reports if necessary. We wish to call attention to the facts that must be fully given in the reports--The company and regiment ol the applicant and the correct age-the full disability as far as can be given, whether of male or female applicant, and the of children, below tho age of fourteen years, and also the ages condition of orphan children, and also the actual value if any, of houses or land. These things, fully stated are of the utmost importance, so that the commission may be able to adjust the allowance to the indigerits in an equitable proportion.

We have aimed to deal justly with all and can only do so through a full statement by the township committees. The will bear in mind that under the Jaw as revised, that all honorably discharged soldiers or sailors and their widows or minoi children, not only of the war of the rebellion, but of the later wars or of the regular army, are en- tiled to the benefit of the indigent soldiers' relief fund. It is no part of the duties of the committees to up the applicants. They must make personal application to the township I committees, or to the Soldiers' Oom- I mission. C.

P. B. Surchet, Sec'y. Frank Siegfried, the seventeen- year-old son of Mr. and Mrs.

A preacher at the conclusion of one of his sermons said: "Let all in the house who aie paying their debts stand up." I a every man, woman and child, with one exception, rose to their feet. The preacher seated them and said: "Now every man not paying his debts stand up." The exception noted, a care-worn, hungry-looking individual, clothed in his last summer's suit, slowly assumed a perpendicular position.

"How is it, ra.y friend," asked the minister, a you arc the only man not to meet his obligations?" run a newspaper," he meekly answered, "and the brethren here who just stood up are my subscribers and--" "Let us pray," exclaimed the Juplin (Mo.)

Will any citizen oi' good say that with the a of tnil received at tho half gate cast of ilie city of Cambridge, nvonnrinir for the, past years, at $1,000 nor year, or a toral in numbers of $20,000, if i boon properly expended on tho miles oust of i would not have made those i cocid road? Tho report ago slmw'od over to tho a i a Road and yet the coal a to tlu- city have been paying I nil past winter on a road so had teams wero a i and I i horses to a two hoi.so loud. Tin; cursing and i a gate luivo boon loud a long and not i cause. There is at last rniinrt belonging to the National ijniul i i And from the outlook now the i i i plaints must bo continued, Jf the road is tu be let go to destruction, take off the toll gate and lot It be a county road, and it may be that the citizens cast of tho city i Jind some way to bettor its condition.

Publicity is thought now to be true way to put down trusts and other combinations, then publicity In county affairs is equally i a Whoever saw an account of tbo expenditures on the National Road, given by tho Connnissioncisy True the a of tolls collected and expended is given in the yearly report, hut there Is no showing as to which Tom Dick or Harry got the plums. There arc laws enough to get better roads, the old Pike included, if those that a them see that they are bettor enforced. If those elected to perform that duty do not do It, thorn out and put in those that will. Lot politics go to tho clogs, in county affairs. Business clone on a political basis i not bo well done, such is always done for tho benefit of the few against the many.

There is no reason or law why taxpayers on the old pike should have their road tax diverted to other roads than tho one that passes through or adjoins their lands. Why should a a travels a half mile to get to tho old pike i ho then travels five miles, pay mad lax on a half mile, and no part of which can lie expended on the Jive miles? The old pike is as much of a county toad as any other road and i con- i to he i the United States claims its reserved i In its cession t.o the state and letnkesthe road. The Steubenville road was graded by a corporation, incorporated under the laws of Ohio. Why spend road tax on it and not on the old pi Ice? A furthermore the Commissioners when they took the road from tho state, bound themselves to keep the road in good repair. And today tho road in the counties through which it passes, that nave taken off tho loll gates, keep the road in bettor repair than it is in Uio counties whore tho gates remain.

Right hero we may say that before the old National Roud bridge is dl- vciten from its pmner use and turned over to tho Consolidated Street Railway Company, tho i and tho Com- rnissionoi's had bettor examine the United Slates law in a regard. may be that tho $3,371 is held back to i the old a i a Road bridge for the hcnolH of the Cunsolldated Company, who only have to i to have Hie Commissioners and Die city council fall over one another nt breakneck speed to do i i i Tho Commissioneis i say a they a i all they can 'for i he old pike; hut they are not carry a (if I ho dead in the treasury. But they i say that there is tin law to make anv special levy for road. 1 Sec. -J931 R.

S. says among oilier things a i i to i i i i Road: "They shall not assess or levy any tax for tho repair or preservation of said road, except as provided the general statutes for tho repair and preservation of county and male roads."
