Tivo west hound freight trains on the l-'an-hamlle collided at Selma, Thursday morning. .They had gone to Sdlrna to sidetrack and allow the morning express to •pass, while the second section sidetracked at South Charleston, pulling out from therejust after No. 5 hod passed. The fog was very heavy-and the train running as it was kt the rate o f thirty miles an hour the engineer did not see that the first section was only just pulling out on the main track, and rushed into her. Eighteen ears were ditched and the engine wais completely demolished. The engineer and fireman jumped from their engine and escaped with but few bruises. All trains were de­ layed during the day, none passing here until in the evening. A tejegrum last Monday announc­ ing tlmt Rev. Tufts iiad been trans­ ferred from hep to Trinity church, Dayton, and that Rev. Young would take charge o f the M. E. church in Cedarville has caused some excitement here among the members of that de­ nomination. All were glad to have Rev. Tufts returned to this charge for the coming year, and after they t ,d welcomed him buck, to have him tnkon from themso unceremoniously was not, to their liking, nud they at once en­ tered a protest. Whether the Presiding Elder will persist in the change is not yet known. While Rev. Tufts is willing to remain here and the mem­ bers of the chureh-eaniestly request it, his friends away from here feel it to lie a promotion, as is evinced from.the following from the Springfield Repub­ lic-Times; “ The many friends o f Rev. G. L. Tufts; formerly o f this city, will .be pleased to learn tlmt he .has been transferred tp Trinity church at Day* inn by Bi-hop Joyce. At conference he was re-assigned to Cedarville, but the Bishop this morning ramie the above change, llev. Tufts is one of themost promising rising young min­ isters In tlie Cincinnati conference.” 7 CLIFTON. Prof, J. G. Collins lias moved into Geo. H, Smith's house,. Mr. A. G.

L um , here* Next Saturday the qualified voters of Cedarville will have an opportunity to say whether they are in favor o f repealing the prohibitory ordinance or leaving it os it is. For some time it was surmised that spirituous liquors were sold here contrary to the ordi­ nance, but no positive,proof could be obtained, although the proper, author­ ities tried hard enough. The death of the proprietor, however, put an end to the investigation, as the place was closed up and bhsiuess suspended. Within the.past, two weeks another place has been opened .which is sup­ posed to deal in wet goods. Some of the council knowing their inability to do anything towards suppressing the traffic in the past.are in a quandery whether the ordinance should be re­ pealed or that they show fight. Others are open in their desire to have it re­ pealed, while there.are still others who are equally desirous that it should not be. To settle the matter the majority have thought best to call an election of the voters of the corporation and allow the majority to decide tor them. The H e iu l p ' 1ms no comments to make regarding the action of the coun­ cil, as we are not in a position to know what their trials aud' tribulations-have been in the past, but the fact that the sale o f liquor in any community is of interest, and effects other persons than qualified voters is sufficient to allow tlibiu a voice in this matter.
