Child Horn Died ot Bturvattou.
That scctlou of tho country known In
early days as "the Western reserve" In
Ohio recently .celebrated Its centennial.
One hundred years ngo the tlrst white
child born In the Western reserve died
of starvation. The first church lu the
section was dedicated by the breaking
of a bottle ot whisky over Its steeple.
Among the prominent men horn nud
raised In that part of Ohio were James
A. Garileld, William MclCluley, Will-

lam Dean IIowclls, Ulddlugs, and
Wade.
Hundreds of people each year visit
tho old law offices of (lidding & Wade,
tho famous statesmen of anti-slavery
times, located at Jefferson, Ashtstbula
County. Their monuments In tho little
Jefferson cemetery are also a point of
Interest. Scattered here and there
throughout tho reserve arc the old un
derground rnllroad stations which shel
tered many a slave on his way to lib
erty. The birthplace of McKlntey Is
located at Nlles and the homo of James
A. Garfield at Mentor. William Dean

the system of penmanship which has
become famous since then.
Tho monument to Commodore I'er
ry's splendid victory stands lu Wade
Park, Cleveland. At Klrtland Is tho
tlrst Mormon temple ever erected. At
Ashtabula Is located tho church where
Robert G, Ingersoll attended Sunday
school. These are a few of tho poluts
of Interest to be seen In tho territory
which Is now celebrating tho dato of
Its foundlug.
That tho tlrst white child born on the
Western rescrvo should dlo for want ot
food shows tho hardships which the
first sottlers endured. The first family
to winter on the Western reserve con
sisted of Judge Kingsbury and wife
and children. They located at Con
neaut, which Is situated near the banks
of Lake Erie. Provisions were very
scarce, and It Is said thaU more than
onco the Judge transported through the
wilderness on a baud sled a barrel of
beef a dlstanco of sixty miles. The
severest test of the family came when
Judge Kingsbury was compelled by his
business Interests to go to New York
la the fall of the first year of their set
tlement at Conueaut. Tho Journey was
a long one In those days, when all who
wished to travel must rldo horseback
or ro ou foot. Arriving In New York
he was taken sick and for several
months was unable to return to his
family; As- soou as he could travel he
started at once, and fearing that hU
wife andi little, ones would have used
up the supply of provisions In his ab
sence he gathered together all he could
carry, and when his horse guve out, a
hundred miles from home, he placed
tho load uppu his own back and contin
ued his trip. On reaching the house
he bounded Inside with his precious
load of provisions. During his absence
another child hail been born and upon
a cot lay the mother, nearly famished,
and beside her (he babe was dead. It
had died for lack of nourishment,
which tho starving mother was unable
to furnish. This Is one of the saddest
stories In connection with the settle
ment of tho section.
The first church on tho Western re
servo Is said to have been located at
Austlnburg. It Is said that when tho
church was dedicated there was brokeu
over Its steeple a bottle of whisky. This
was In the days when even preachers
drank whisky, and nothing was thought

qf It. Thin church was afterward on
of tho strongest opponents ol ths liquor
trnfllc, ami among its members wcro
numbered somo of tho most noted tem
perance workers of Inter years. '
It was during the very early days of
tho Western reserve that what was thb
tlrst and probably the only 'trip ever
made across Luke Erie In a canoe was
mnde by Solomon Sweatlaud. The dis
tance across is more than sixty miles,
nud to attempt such u voyage Is llko
rushing headlong to death. There Is
probably not a sailor living to-dny who
would nttempt It. Solomon Swenttaud
safely mnde the Journey, soon after ho
landed lu this territory as one of Its
eurly Bettlers. He, with several other
enthusiastic young hunters, were out
after deer. One of these nulmnls, an
extra large one, ran to the bank of the
lake and Jumping lu Bvn.in fnr out Into
Its bluo waters. Sweatlnud followed
In a canoe. Ho was caught lu a galo
of wind ami found tt'lmposslble to re
turn to shore. All that day and ulgbt
he drifted about helplessly, balling tho
water from his canoe at Intervals and
holding on. 'In tho morning ho sighted
tho Canadian shore and lauded safely,
and a fow months later returned home,
,where-.hls relatives had mourned him
as dead.
One of the, first pioneers on the re
serve wna Alexander Harper, who,
with his wife and seven children, ar
rived at a point near Unlonvlllo June
28. Hero within thrco months' time be
died. There being no coffins available,
he was burled lu ono hewn from the
trunk of a tree. The family fought
hard against great privations and hard
ships and were successful pioneers. To
day tho Harper residence stands as one
of the landmarks of the reserve. It
contains the rarest of relics.
Later In the Western reserve's his
tory we find John llrown picking many
of his men from the Western reserve.
Queer Thin llnnrd In the KITtnrsj
"A funny thing about this buslncsn,"
said a man who runs the elevator In a
big olllco , building, "Is tho way people
will sometimes call out whatever hap
pens to bo on their minds Instead of the
number of the floor nt which' they want
to stop. Just a few moments ago u
very good-looking lady got lu the car,
and, when we were about half way up
she called out suddenly: 'Two back
teeth!' 'What!' said I, a little startled.
'I mean five,' she answered, turning
ml. Then she saw that made It worse
than ever, and she turned red some

more. 'I menu please stop at tho llftli
floor,' she mauaged to say, very low,
when we were nearly to tho top. You
see, she was on her way to the deutlsts,
may be to hno two buck teeth
snatched out, and I suppose she could
not think of anything else. Tho other
day a fat, fussy old man rushrd In with
a bundle of papers In his hand. When
wo got near tho fourth tloor ho blurted
out: 'He's a contemptible- rascal I'
'Very likely,' said I, and kept ou going
up. 'HI, there!' ho yolled, 'why didn't
you stop where I told youV 'How did
I know what floor you meant?' said I.
'What you remarked fits tenants ou sev
eral -floors.' It turned out that ho want
ed to sco his lawyer. I don't know
whether he was thinking about him or
somebody he was In litigation with."

Stamp t Drawn by Wind Power.
Utilizing the wind as a stump puller
Is au Oregon Invention, It was the
Idea of tho farmer at the State peniten
tiary, whoso task was to clear six acres,
aud with tho aid of tho wind ho cleared
the whole tract In six weeks, although
the timber was a deuso growth,, tho
tlrst measuring from one to four feet In
diameter. The winds lu the quarter
blow strong from tho south at this sea
son. The farmer put his men to work
on the north side of tho Hr grove. They
cut a log and dragged It close to tho
north side of tho bases of tho fir trees,
and then cut tho surface roots of the
trees that were to bo felled. The prep,
aratlons wcro made during tho first
day, and theu the men went home nud
slept whllo the wind did the rest. Dur
ing tho night a strong wind blew tho
trees dowu, and they, In falling ncross
tho logs, pulled up tho taproots. Tho
next day tho men sawed up the fallen
trees, burucd the brush, and laid their
logs for another lot of trees. They
proceeded In this way until tho whole
grove had disappeared. Farmer's Ad
