The Democratic Csntr.il Committee of Hocking County, pursuant to adjournment, will meet in Logan, in the Sentinel Office, on the SECOND SATURDAY of May, being the 9th, for the pnrpoie of fixing the time of holding the Primary the transaction of such other business as may be deemed All Committeemen are requested to be present or send proxies. Vacancies will be filled by the Committeemen present, by the appointment of known Democrats in attendance at fie meeting. Candidates and Democrats generally are invited to attend the meeting.

Thos. Meldhim, Ch'm. C. M. Gould, Sect'y.

i the Democracy of Berk. Ibc County. Logan, May 6, 1885. I am being urged from all parts the county to be a candidate for re-election as Representative to the General Assembly. Before and after my election in 1883,1 announced that I would not be a candidate for re-election, in case I should be ejected and in pursuance of my intention then and now, I wish to say to the Democracy that I will under no circumstances be a candidate for re-nomination and election, as I have by experience found that I cannot successfully attend to my professional business and also at the same time represent the county in the Leg islature, tience i would not accept the office again if tendered me by a unanimous elecjjpn.en-tertaining a much higher appreciation of my profession than I do of the empty honors of being a Representative in the Ohio Legislature.

I wish here to thank the Democracy of the county for my nomination as Representative, and the people, irrrespective of party, for my election. Respectfully, S. WELDY. The State Convention will be held in Springfield on June 11th. The Convention would have been held at aIater day, but for the fervid argument of that distinguished farmer, Gen.

Homer Jones of Barley Cornyille, who objected to having the Convention held in Jiarvest. Theydon't commence to pull pen nyroyal in Vinton county until after about the 11th of June. Peisons who complain that the substitution of Democratic for Republican officials in the 'Federal service is proceeding very Blowly should remember that it is nevertheless going on, and tlmt there are still at least three yean and ten months in which to complete it. The people, no doubt, voted last November ior a chauge, but they are not in a hurry. They see that there must be careful deliberations in selecting officials for responsible if the administrative shortcomings of the Republicans are to be avoided.

They ant a "clean Bweep' beyond question, but as the Baltimore Sun says, they want the offices cleaner six months alter they have been swept than they were be fore tho sweeping, began. President Cleveland Ms not moving very fast, but he is going straight. Last week he turned out of office the Guerilla Mosby appointed, by the loyal, Republican administration. That alone will afford subject for a month's Te-publicau giggle. The Legislature adjourud on last Monday.

Elsewhere we publish a list of the laws passed. The Legislature has not met with the approval of the Republican party, but it did good work and lots ot it, and can stand the censure and criticism of our political enemies. Complaints about the weather are frequent, but the weather is better thau the fault-finder could make it. The doge bark at the moon, but the moon shinea all the same. The Republicans will crUiciseand complain about our Legislaiure, but the laws passed arejuat and needed, and the record will compare favorably with that ot any body ever assembled in our Eta to.

Sale of Tebonds of the county advertis ed for sale the jnsl three weeks, were sold on last Monday to bankers of Toledo, at a premium of $365,00. Albert Net-jer, banker bf Cincinnati was tbe only other bidder. His bid was $360,00. Judge Kelley, of New Lexing-ton, has appointed Prof. Wolf of Oreville, Hocking School Examiner for Perry.

We congratulate the teachers of Perrv uj.on the excellent selection, and Judge Kelly upon good sense in coming to Hocking selecting from' our teaches" r.u Examiner for the Perry School Uoan1. fh L2TUS GO FISHING, Kow thnt the Legislature lias Passed in its Checks. Some Pertinent Comment on tbe Work done by that Body. Special Correspondence of the Sentinel. Columbus, May 5 Now we can afford to go fishing and mako ourselves comfortable and happy.

The annual affliction was rather of a mild character this year, tor which we should all be truly grateful. In spite of all Republican predictions ro ths contrary the State House is left standing and there is plenty of money in the Bta'e Treasury. The Legislature adjeurned yester-after being in sessson for a hundred and saven daya. The amount of work performed was unesually large, and as a whole will compare favorably with that of any Legislature that the State has had for years. While the Republican press has seized upon tbe idiosyncracies 'of one or two members to throw discredit upen the whole body, the attempt will prove a failure It is a fact that ought to be pat ent by this time that the one thing that needs to be discouraged in the Ohio Legislature, is that of passing local laws by the Legislature.

I have long advocated the policy of se amending the Constitution as to prevent it, and providing by general law for the regulation of local boards of Commissioners, Trustees, Boards of Education or Municipal Councils. There is no good reason why tho Legislature should be appealed to, to relieve the bondsmen of a de faulting township or county treas urer to authorizo the issue of local bonds; to divide a township into voting precincts or do one of the hundred other things that are -done by local bills. All these things should be done by the local authorities, in accordance with a general statute, and under the immediate inspection of the people af fected by them, who would thus be able to put all the. responsibility where it belongs. Tins is a reform that is not very far off in tho future of the State.

As I have already said, there were no very radical changes in the The very large number ot sections of the Revised Statutes which were amended do not make any very great changes in the law as it stocd previously. Some of these amendments are merely clerical in their character. Some make unimportant changes, white some arc of greater importance, but mainly of interest to the legal pro fession. Ab a matter of fact, almost all of them were made upon the suggestions of lawyers who felt that they could improve upon tho verbiage of tlie Statutes in somo cases and upon the character of the provisions in others. The amendments of existing laws are the natural result of the meeting of a legislative body, there never having been one that assembled yet that did not believe that it eould improve upon the work of its predecessor and there never will be.

The two constitutional amendments which you are printing each week are of much more than ordinary importance to the people and they should see that they are adopted, Thoir adoption this fall will bo something that no voter will ever have the slightest occasion to regret, and I think tho majority will take this view of them and act accordingly. The Weldy law for the punishment of taking or giving bribes at the primaries or at the polls, is an excellent one, and if the people will see to it that it is enforced, they wiH have less cause to complain of dishonest and incompetent officials. The Registry law for Cincinnati is good so far as it goes, but should have been ruado to apply to all cities of 15,000 population or over. It is in these dense centres of population where the elections frauds are committed that every once in a while practically disfranchise tho lowest musses in the other parts of the State. The Scl.ultz bill distributing tho rolling stock and other property of railway companies anioiit all tho counties along the lino, for taxation I is a jus! measure and will equalize Miinsrs much better than thev have been heretofore.

The Mooney bill to protect people who buy things on the installment plan, and the Bruce bill put ting an end to tho bucket shop business by which people arc fleeced. nrenvn well timed laws, and the people will appreciate thorn, as they will" the 0'Teil bill breaking up the insurance syndic ites, which have their own way in running up premiums. 1 have tried to convince myself' ihat the Legislature has unproved i the prison sjtem of the State, but candor compels me to say that il has not. Its legislation in that di rcction has been experimental, and will eventually havo to bo undone. When tho Intei mediate Penitentiary 33 bui t.

there in iv bo some ro formation of a select class of criin-j to the honor of a nation, bome-iuaU, but as penitentiary convicts how we have-not been able to in general it is a waste of time and effort to try to reform them. Tbe only thing that can be done is to protectvSociety from their deprivations. I have spoken frankly on this subject as it is one that both political parties havo been disposed to experiment with, and I think tbey are both about satisfied with the experiment, and will try something more practical. Tho act providing for the paroling of prisoners, along with the laws passed last winter and amended this, is also going to prove a failure in its practical application. The worst men.

it will he found will get the paroles, and thoy will serve, as loop holes for them to escape from punishment which is their just deserts. I hope it may turn oat otherwise, but I am afraid it will not. Not So Sure. The Republican statesmen who wore here yesterday to arrange for their State Convention, were not so sure ot carrying Ohio as they were somo timo ago. They now say that, tbey now have a good chance to carry the State if they make good nominations and work harmoniously together.

I had an idea they would put an uiF in their cal culations before they got through with them. stand most, in need of is an issue for campaign. The "wise, conservative and statesman-like course of President Cleveland leaves them without one. W. A.

T. Sounds From the Street. The rapidity with which our streets are being cleaned is a new mark of enterprise in the citizens of this place. If the same speed is maintained for the next ten years, the late proclamation of the Mayor will then be known to be a successful edict. It is known that we have "a public pound in this place where all stock running loose contrary to ordinance is imprisoned While not particularly friendly to a law that hurts a poor man worse than any one else, it still looks like a farce to have such a law and such a place, and then permit every one that may have stock impounded to run it out without question or protest.

There is only one'greater craze than the rink that' ever-struck this town, and that is Draw Poker. That was 50 years ago, and it has been here or hereabouts ever since. It is different from the rink business in one particular. It is hard to find a man that knows the game, while on the other hand it is hard to find a man that don't skate. But that is immaterial.

Two can play the game, but the board is comfortably filled when six have gathered around and taken the banker's certificate of deposit in amounts of from five to ten dollars. It is not necessary that one should be a churchman to learn the game, though it does not transpire that it is accounted a disability. "Hoyle on games" gives a very full and compaehen-sive description of draw poker. We mention this incidentally that any one may have good references, if "any assertion we may make is doubted. If a man raises on the "come ana is compelled 10 my uuwn a "bob-tail flush" to one little before the roof is rais ed, he is likely to be consoled with the thought, that "the Lord loves a cheerful givev." A "Jack Pot," is a modern wonder.

The board passes out and! the, corner stone of the "Jack" is laid. The walls of the "Pot" are usually pilasters of dollars, that are carefully laid up by the members who are anxious to see the end of the deal. Finally a member thinks he sees a crack in tho "Pot" and offers to break it for two dollars. Then the members all become "bulls," and in a very few minutes the "Pot" is as near heaven as the ceiling will permit. It stands suspended on a breath, an unusually robust one, too, especially if the game has been running for some time.

The president of the syndicate calls cards, and when the members are all berved, the seeond member to the left of the chairman chips in, and the shower soon becomes a plorm. At last there conies a call. The chair rules that 'threes' are greater than 'two that a 'flush' beats that a 'full hand' lays over a that 'lours' are too many for a 'full and that a 'royal flush' can.beat a National Bank. Then the golden bowl is broken, and the members step out and gather material for a new corner stone. It has been asserted that all poker players are gamblers.

This we don't believe, but do know that there is scarcely a boy on the street but what is a mighty old man" on 'draw and it is folly to suppose that the reputation of the 'National -Game' will not be sustained for at least two generations. Parents will no doubt feel proud that even in a small way they can contribute say much about the game. We are not loaded for 'draw We don't know there are twenty places in town where the game is played. We only know of tn77hnn the assessors get thribjith their rush, we will employ one if we can and get the game down in alphabetical order. In the Spring, candidates are always making piomises that they find very hard to fulfill in in the fall.

The government of any city or town is open to criticism. It should not go into anything it cannot see it way out of and it should not insist on one clas3 of citizens doing a thing and excuse another class that are ame nable to the 8amo ordinances. For instance A petition is presented to-the Council praying that an ordinance permitting the grading of a certain street be passed. It is passed. The town gives notice to the property holders to do the work in a certain time, and if it is not done, it will doit for them.

It now follows that in all such cases one or two persons always fail to come to time and there are places in town, that'now, after the rest of the street has been paved three or four years, are still mud holes in winter and duck ponds in wet weather. Such treatment is not fair, and if the Council can in any way wipe out these eyesores, in heaven's name let it be done. The Council is always ready to kick if the people don't march to time and ought to stand of the same kind of medicine when it becomes negligent and fails to do its duty. Sounds from the Rink. Now Doine aal -'Chicken Last week tho People's Rink was open Tuesday, Thursday- and Saturday nights.

Thursday night ladies were admitted free, but the greatest of these was Saturday, when the immense building was filled with the youth and beauty of the towu, practicable demonstrating fhat the craze is still on. One of the features of the evening was tho skating of Pete Montgom ery. Tho boy is only five years old. To fully appreciate the many and difficult feats he performs one should go and, see him. THE WHEREAS.

The Rink Beats a Camp Meeting Jess White is a skater. Got that down? It looks kind of natural to see 01. Wright tryiug to knock himself out. Tho floor missed many salula tions Saturday nighi. Frank Har misori wasn't thar! When Billie Ackers straps on the skates, one can not help but think of a funeral.

If the Parson could be present he would doubtless, booh smell the varnish and go out and see who was dead. Gov. Rochester has mas'ered the art. Frank Vanatta, of Murray, was up Saturday night giving the fel lows some "pints" on skating. Will Keynes still skates or words to that effect.

Lon Nail was on the turf again Saturdaj' night. Our Corning brother, George Fraseh was present. ManduB Keber is the young man eloquent at the rink. And the last shall be first Sirs. Howard White, Phil Thompson and Lafe Warner-can do the Grand March as well as anybody.

Mai. Ilavwood occupied a seat In the lobby Saturday night. Fanny Bowcn, Jossio Davenport. Royio McCracken and Maud May-nard are sized up pretty evenly. Geo.

Tannyhill played with the Big Six Band Saturday night. Kate Rochester, Hattie Thomp- Finney and Gertie Ba ker are hard to heat. Fanny Montgomery has become an excellent skater. Lizzio Jones, of Athens, was at the rink hut week. She is a fine skater.

Among the mot graceful skaters are Biddy McCarthy and Lulu Rambo. Chas. Sterrit, Frank Blnsius. Will Bowcn, Geo. Work and Squire Bowen are all experts.

When the Big Six gets ready to play a New Grand March, no one will kick about it. The boys play first-rato and are worthy of much praise for the rapid improvement the' have made this winter, but too much repetition is suggestive of the grind organ- Anything for a chiinge. Ladies admitted free at the rink to night. White Dress party at the rink Saturday night. The orange pick Tuesday night was won by Frank Blasius.

A Scene to Convert tho Unconverted as to tlie Efllcacy of Flro Iluinaii Sacrifices Made When There Was No Hope of Escape.

New York, May 3. The terribla fire and loss of life which occurred in tho tenement house on First avenuo caused the greatest excitement among the residents on the East S.do of the city, and all day -long the scene of the disaster was visited by thousands of people. The building in which the fire occurred is a five-story double tenement, ani had only recently been built There were ten families in the building at the time of the outbreak, and unfortunately there ere no fire escapes in the front of the building, tho only escapes being in the rear, and the inmates residing in front were, on account of the flames and smoke, unable to reach them. It was ru mored that the Are was tho work of an incendiary, but nothing definite'wfll bo known until the fire marshal has made an investigation. Numerous complaints were made of the delay in the fire department, but that is accounted for by the engines of the district being at another fire in Park Tho following is a list of the dead and injured: Dead Sirs.

Minnie Kretchnr, aged thirty-four; Richard Exetchner, aged eleven; William Hurley, aged twenty; Elizabeth Hurley, aged twenty-three; Christina Ker-ner, aged forty-eight; Joseph Humphrey, aged thirty-seven; Henry Humphrey, aged four months, and a servant girl namod Mary. Injured Mrs. Kate Lamburger, aged twenty-eight, and daughtor K3to, aged six years; Mrs. Ida Ehrich, aged forty; George Hurley, aged forty-nine; Elizabeth Hurley, aged fifty-live; Albert Kbrner, aged fourteen; Christina Zerner, aged twenty-three; Kate Kerner, aged twenty; William Flauna-gan, aged sixteen; Kato LamphuL, aged seven, and Sophie Korner, aged eleven. Coroner Martin has taken charge of tho case and will commence an investigation early in the week.

As soon as the stream had darkened the flames a little, and almost before the embers ceased to glow, the rooms wero searched for tho people. They were found and brought out and hurried to the hospital for an effort at) resuscitation. The occupants of the 'tenement were mainly Germans and one apartment to a family was the rula There weri ten families in the tenement, averaging fivo persons each. Of these fifty men, women and children, more than half are dead, in the hospital or not accounted for. There wer.) no fire escapes on the front of the building and the old ones on the rear ot the house wore clogged with rubbish.

The scuttle on the roof was locked and the tenants who went up to go on tho roof had to retreat. The smoke tilled the house and the stairway caught fire. A woman who lived In one of the upper floors flung her five-months old baby out ot tho window. Policeman Fcgarty. canght-if Inhis arms and carried it across tho srreefc.

Several of the insuranco patrol carried poo-ple down stairs and hung out of window with women and children in their arms tilf ladders were put up. Chief Shea says ho never saw so irany excited people clustered about tho windows ot a burning building. One woman who had been given up us dead and stiv.tcl.cil among the corpses was seen to show sign3 of life, and men worked upon her as thoy would in a casa of rescue from drowning nn.il an ambulance could take hor away. Mr. Rochich, who, with his wife and three children occupied tho top floor, was tha only tenaut who escaped without loss.

Immediately after tho fire was discovered, ho closed his doors and windows to keep out tho smoke. He then took his wife and children to the front window and passed them one by one down the ladders erected by tha firemen. Mr. Rochick sa.d: "The fire cut off nil by thestairs and fire escapes. The floorings of the latter and the boxes and wash rein stored thereon burnt like tinder and made tho iron work of the fire escapes so hot that it was impossible to get down.

If the people ha only shut their doors and gone to the top of the building, none would have been killed. I saw Mrs. Humphrey in the hospital and she said that Humphrey had xt tho place on fire. Philip Limbackor, a painter, was awakens! by the smoke. Ho revised his wife and four chil lren and dropped them from the third story intc the arms of persons below.

They wore not much hurt" Tho fire did not get beyond tho fourth floor, except in tho htllw.iys, where the doors and wainscotting were blackened and charred. The building was erected in 1870. It is owned by tho estate of David Jones, tha ale brewer. Coroner Martin viewed the bodies at the morgue and granted a permit for their removal. He will impannel a jury to view ths building, and will hold an inquest some time during the week.

The fire broko out in the kitchen of Humphrey's restaurant The police think it was duo to carelessness on Humphrey's part, wha often closed his saloon and left a hot tire in his range. Mrs. Burge, whose saloon adjoined Humphrey's, said she had often spoken to -him about the careless manner in- which be left his fire, but he only laughed and said: "It is all'right I'm insured."

Thousands of people who customarily post their mail at tha street-lamp tox, and get all their letters from "tho carrier's hand3, swarmed through the immense corridor of the naw postolfice, gazing critically at the highly nol-ished stationary furniture, shining brass gratings, aud gilded and bronzed iron worn. A score of clerks, scattered over tha big enclosure, seemed to need guides to chaprona them around their extensive apartments. The furniture for tli9 offices is all in, but only the money order department (outsido tlu postolfice proper) is in full operation. A Parting Shot. Washington, May 4.

Senator Eustis, of Louisiana, who saile 1 for Europe, has fired a parting shot at tho administration. The opinions of Louisiana democrats who do not agree with his views having been called ta his attention, Senator Eustis telegraphed as follows to Mr. Weightaiau, of tho New Orleans Times-Democrat: New York, May 1.
