Henry Barber went to Cincinnati yesterday on a visit. I t is slyly ru­ mored that ere his return he will in­ vade the quiet precincts of Warren county’s capital for the purpose of re­ newing an acquaintance with one of Lebanon’s fair damsels. We can 'not say that this is true, but Henry lis tened very attentively to Belva Lock­ wood’s lecture Monday evening and it may be that he has a severe attack 'of the epidemic that has proven so disas­ trous to so many of Cedarville’* old bachelors within the post few weeks, and is seriously contemplating matri­ mony. The Gallion Sun-Review, in its re­ port of the State Alliance convention held at that place last week, speaks in the following terms of one of our Cc- darvillle citizens: “Dr, J . J . Snyder/ of Greene coun­ ty, distinguished himself in a favora­ ble manner on Thursday afternoon on more than one occasion by making forcible and logical speeches on subjects with which the delegates were not con- versaut, so far as the facts were con­ cerned; He is a bright young man, possessed of a frnuk, honest chnraoter, and is just such a man as the people want to see advanced to a position where his honesty and energy will be of service to his State.” There was quite an interesting Jaw suit held before ’Squire Hudson last lYiednesday, J . H. Wolford, of Cedn * ville, O., being the plaintiff and the firm of Lott A Wolford, of Selma, this township, being the defendants in the case, the amount sued for being $29,70. Attorney Shoup, one of Xenix’s rising young lawyers, act*-! in behalf of the plaintiff, and ’Sq.uire Bradford, Solith Charleston’s noted attorney, handled- the defendants’ side of the case. Both attorneys afforded tile crowd of spectators, which, by the way, wag a large one, considerable amusement during the progress of the trial by calling each othersuch endear­ ing names-as “ Young America,” “Old Rusty,” “Little Puppy,” “ Old Fogy,” etc. Some of the spectators claim they have not had so much fun since the depatture of the Indian Medicine Co., last winter. After Clearing the evidence and arguments in the case ’Squire Hudson rendered judgement in favor of plaintiff lor full amount claimed and costs. I t is thought de­ fendants will appeal the ease. The decision of the court was.favorably re­ ceived by all who heard the case. At­ torneys Slump and Bradford Imth did themselves great credit by the master­ ly way in Which they handled the c*«ot the latter especially, coming out on top’without * scratch and ready for another round, as Charleston always doe#.—[Charleston Cor, Springfield Democrat. , W A T C H E S , C LO C K S * — — A N D — — — ,T T ^ w i ? . t REPAIRED NEATLY AND TO ORDER BY C.

The wedding of Samuel Tomlinson and Miss Carrie Alexander occurred at the home of the bride’s pareuts in North Cedarville, Tuesday evening and was the social event of the week. Over fifty guests were present. The bride was. beautiful, dressed, in creme Henrietta, No ornaments. The groom was nrrayed in the convention, al black. The wedding ceremony, was conducted by Rev. Tufts, of the Al. E. church,_and was simple and im­ pressive. Immediately after the cer­ emony and congratulations au elegant supper was served, Au interesting time was liadbv the unmarried friends of the bride hud groom present, just before arising from the table, when u take containing a plain gold ring was given them, each'one having the .priv­ ilege of cutting a slice from the cake and trying to secure the ring. As there is a superstition prevalent ■ that he or she who secures the ring will lie the first of those present to be married, the young Jadies'all scoured generous slices, but fate was not to be defraud­ ed in that manner and the ring fell into the hands of a young Air: Alex­ ander, cousin of the bride.

C. & St. L. railroad for $10,000 * - l . dumagOB by the estate of Sarah Jones, better known ns/Aunt Sullie” Jones, who was killed near the depot here about two years ago, was set for hear­ ing lost Thursday, but when oalled up for hearing the counsel- for the plaintiff asked for a continuance of the>case, to give him .an opportunity to chunge his bill of particulars. This, we understand, was done on account of the rulings of the court in regard to certain testimony which would not be allowed. The joint meeting that had been ar­ ranged between Old Town Run and Clark’s Run Alliances, was held at East Point school house lost Tuesday evening. About one hundred and fifty persons were present, a ’ number attending from this pluce and Xenia. An elegant program had been ar­ ranged aud all who were to participate were present, and did full justice to the subject selected for his especial consideration. William Bryson was first called. Subject, “ Why are the farmers of the United States organiz­ ing, and wJmt do they- expect to ac­ complish!” J , B. Cummings, subject: Taxation. Geo. Harper, of Cedar­ ville, subject: Alonopolics and Com­ bines. Russel Brewer, subject: The independent movement in Greene county, Oscar Bmdfute, subject: Relation of the tariff to the farmer. Walksr Williamson, subject: Salaries ot county officers. After the regular program a number were called upon for remarks, several responding, but were not allowed much time as. the regular speakers had occupied the time until about 10 o’clock. We un­ derstood there is talk of another meet­ ing of the same kind at Old Town in the near future. parties going West will do well by seeing O. L.
