Ihe inhabitants of our little villagi were startled by a terrifio racket iowu met monaay eve, and fears were expressed that the "Mighty Lion" had emerged from his lair to roar again, but investigation disoloaed the fact that was only Mr. Willis electioneering. Ask him about it. Sudden Death. Last Saturday, Uncle" Ed. Baling, as be ia known by all, died Buddenly of heart disease, aged 67 years.

Chairman Srown presided and though no "set progrom hBd been provided, several members oooupied the time in appropriate remarks on republicanism. Two weeks from that date this club will meet at tbe court house or opera house, as may hereafter be deoided. A splendid program will be provided for the oc casion. Come out all. What Gall. J. 0.

There would be no fun ia that heap, fun, big fight, so I thought I would oome home and rest on my oars, while the other fellows hustled up enough votes to iojeot a little vinegar into tbe con vention deliberations."

No late news has been reoeived, and we hope that tbe report is unfounded. Morrow Co. Club. The republican Club of Morrow county will meet at the opera house next Saturday evening, and as a program has been gotten up for the oooasion, we expeot a large turnout and a good time. It should be borne in mind that all republicans over the age of 18 years are eligible to membership. Come in and get your name down on the list. J Ifeeild, A Delioatb Operation. Saturday last, Drs. Geisendorfer, of Arlington, and McSwords, of this place, performed a very delicate operation on Mrs. Wm. Warren, removing a tumor more than twice the size of a man's fist, and weigh ing several pounds. Mrs. Warren is doing nioely, and all bids fair for her early recovery. It is reported that Jess Lieuallen, the populist candidate for oonstable, obs gone to Gilliam county oanvassing for votes, while Boon offers free vegetables to all who will support him. Many farmers are poisoning squirrels, l'hey kill lots of them but say there seems to be more left than ever. The oounty should furnish free poison, as we are too "dod-gasted" poor to buy it. Grass is very good and wheat looks better than ever before known at this season of the year, and only for . the peBky squirrels we would feel sure of good orop. If our candidate for representative ever gets hold of the editor of the Reoord he will not think him so deorepid, and probably would not have time to enquire as to his learning. copies or me Arlington Iteoord are being distributed with a long aooount of the miraculous cure of the "drunken old soldier." Rats! If he had kept hie subject with him all the time instead of those seven days he (the Bubjeot) per haps would not have made so many bad breaks. We would give a bit to hear the writer of that yarn read it to a Lexington oongregation. That dodge is played out, Elder. Try something new. We read Bro. Briggs' advertisement to the demi monde as to where they would nod a home and think it very kind of him, too. Still there is no necessity for abusing Bex so continually. The object in referring to the matter was not to pull down or discourage the work of any one, for that is noble work, but to show the vain oonceit of those who boastingly proclaimed their share of the business. Does not the Good Book Bay to "let not tbe right know what Ihe left doeth?" We were not aware that Bro. B. had also been sold ont by old Rork. We sympathize with yoa, kind friend. that your God should turn out so badly and would advise you to worshiD the lrue and Only, and not be running around after side issues. By tbe way, we notice a direct oontra- diotion, from the party mostly interested in tbe last Gazette to one of "Glory Munday's" "Sio Transit" statements, but, perhaps Mr. Briggs knows more about the correspondent's business than she does herself. Don't worry about Rex' morals, brother, for although he has not put himself to tbe task ot re formingthe demi monde, he is accustomed to associate with as respeotable people as you ever did, and while be reforms, perhaps you will oultivate charity a little more: and I mitrht sav. truth n well.

For instance.tbenameof "Ayer" is sufficient guarantee that Ayer's Sarsaparilla is a genuine, scientific blood-purifier, and not a sham, like bo much that goes by the name of "sarna parilla." Ayeri .Sarsaparilla is the standard. Theories That Have vanced for lu Oriuln. Several explanations are given of the manner in which Rhode Island acquired a name. One supposition is that from the abundance of cranberries found in the marshes of this province it was called by the Dutch Roode Eylandt. Others suppose that the original name was Ruel de Eglant (the red island), from the fact that some clay banks at certain points along the coast gave it a reddish tinge. It is most likely, how ever, that it was named from the Is land of Rhodes in the Mediterranean, says the St. Louis Globe-Democrat, and this supposition is strengthened by the discovery of the fact that on January 13, 1644, the general court of elections passed an ordinance reading as follows: "It is ordained by this court that the Island commonly called Aquethneck shall be from henceforth called the Is land of Rhodes, or Rhode Island," Aquethneck was the Indian name, and it is probable that tome odds and ends of learning among the colonists induced them to select this classical name. PATRIOTS. Seventeen Members of Que FamUy Served Their Country in Its Need. . 4 A revolutionary tradition of Rhode Island, long currently believed but only a tradition, has just been verifies! by the collection of a luimber of scat tered bits of evidence. It would be dif ficult to find another instance of an equal amount of patriotism in a single lumiiy. Caleb Arnold and his excellent wife, Patience, were, at the time of the rev olution, the parents of eleven grown children, eight sons and three daugh ters. Caleb and his eight boys Esek, William, Nehemiah. Edward. Oliver. Ephraim, Jabez and Othniel all en tered the patriotic army. His three sons-in-law became soldiers also. His wife and her three daughters, Patience, Anna and Achsa, together with a daughter-in-law, Isceah, re mained at home and managed the farms in the men's absence, finding time and sirengm to perform, In addition to these labors, the duty of nursing the sick ana wounded among the soldiers of the state. It is related, says the Youth's Com panion, of the two sons, Jabez and Othniel, that as they were marching with Gen. Greene's brigade to Bunker niu othniel was seized with the pre- senumeni ol death which so young soldiers have experienced. Jabez," he said, turning to his brother, "If I am killed in this battle will you marry my sweetheart, Rachel Phettyplace?" ' M, Jabez did not hesitate to give the re quired promise, and Othniel, though he survived the glorious disaster of the day, received a wound which eventual ly proved mortal; but either because Jabez felt that his word had been too hastily given, or because Rachel had not been consulted as to her views unon the question, he did not then marry her, but shortly after was wedded instead to the Widow Cole. Being within a few years left a widower, he came courting to Rachel, who was still unweuded, married her, and so kept his word. - , Counting sons-in-law with sons and daughters-in-law with daughters, we find that in -this one large family of little Rhode Island there were seven teen persons and perhaps more who erved their country in her need. It u fine record for their descendants to re niember. . . Why Don't You.
