says a Qplumbus dispatch as she gazed at the picture of Frank Van Loen -e There wonld be nothing especially strange about the remarks were it not for the fact that she was an eye witness of tbe tragedy she did not testify in the trial of Van Loon and never saw him before to know him She left Columbus Grove soon after the tragedy and remained away on a long visit subsequent to Van conviction Being anxious to avoid notoriety in the celebrated case she told no one outside her immediate family that she Saw the murder And thus was never called as witness Her startled exclamation at the penitentiary was made wLile Deputy Warden Playford was showing herself and several mends photographs of the condemned men in the Annex Deputy Warden Playford questioned the lady in regard to her knowledge of the case but was able to learn very little from her as she still desirous of remaining in the back ground The deputy learned however that her name was Mrs Ida Billheimer and her home at ColAmns Grove One of the ladies accompanying her subsequently stated to the deputy that Mrs first name is not Ida She had given that name in her attempt to avoid negoriety It is understood that Mrs BillbeiUier was passing the door of the Columbus Grove bank when the tragedy was enacted Her positive identification of Van Loon aa the murderer under the circumstances will be a strong point against

was turned to and tha volunteer firemen about forty in number responded with their usual' promptness After making a short run it was ascertained that it was a false alarm At the next session of the city council the firemen were refused their usual pay for responding to an alarm Tbs firemen immediately called a meeting and decided to disband in twenty days Tbe time expires to-day and the citizens are thoroughly alarmed over the situation The action of tbe city council grealy regretted Tbe city has a good system of waterworks and has just placed in a new fire alarm system but in the case of fire they will be of use without firemen a There was a great deal of uneasiness manifested about town last night over the report which gained currency that the boat which was taking tbe Lima excursionists from Lakeside to Toledo- bad been caught in the storm which passed over this city last evening Tbe report seemed to be confirmed when an answer to several messages from Toledo brought

with your letter of July 15 ana perusal of it establishes the fact that tbe author is thoroughly devoted to the principles and purposes of true Democracy Very truly yours Grover Cleveland The adoption of Central Standard time by the City Council a step to the proper direction but it will cause a good Mai of annoyance unless it adopted by tbe county commissioners and tbe town clock regulated accordingly Tbe Eleeric Street Bathray company has already adopted it and the banking bouses are taking a like move under advisement thk afternoon with tbe probable result of adopting it also Tbe Standard time the universal rime and all well regulated dries have adopted it as have tbe manufactories It will how-even be some time before it is universally used in Lima!
