A Tortoise one day bantered a Hare for a Race, at which the H^re laughed immoderately. I never heard a Hare laugh, but um told they laugh immod­ erately when they feel that way. ' But the Tortoise insisted on the Race and there was nothing • for the Hare to'do but make the Race. The Hare couldn’t help laughing up bis sleeve, He laughed his sleeve full and he wore big Box Sleeves, tod. The Hare said to himself, “This is too easy, I hate to take the Tortoise’s money. This is too good to be true” He would go out behind a brush heap where he hold his sides and laugh. “ Well, this is usnap,” he said to himself. “Oh, this Tortoise is a jay and I wont do n thing to him! Look nt his whiskers. He is u Hey Rube and I’ll make him look like thirty cents, _It is a downright shame to take his mouey, but it seems that he is bound to give it away, so why mightn’t I just ns well have it?” Reasoning thus, they planned the race and agreed on the Course. The Hure was college bred and was a great deal prettier and more polished than the Tortoise or any of the neigh­ bors. He could mix a little Latin into his speech and every, now and then he would work in a French phrase that would make him appear real student like. The Tortoise had only a enmnon school education and ate pie with his knife. He couldn’t talk anything but United States and he handiy knew a tran^itve verb from the side of a house. The Tortoise couldn’t quote. Lucille and never heard of Mrs. Browning nor of Ibsen nor of Ouida. No, liis education had been neglected. The Hare felt sorry for him aud so did a good many other people. I t has happened before that Folks ware sorry for the wrong fellow. The Race Course was laid.out and the day set for the Race. The Tor* toisc being handicapped by lack of schooling and being obliged to hustle,,, started out for the goal never stopped till he got there. He depended on nobody but himself. He did not count on his good looks nor on his shape, but only on his ability to push ahead. Ho had known only work from his youth. The Haro had gOne into training and 'wore a sweater and running shoes and he had hardened his muscles with applications till they were as hard as steel. Owing to liis superior equip* ment, he didn’t feel the necessity of Work, He had a lot of his friends present to see him distance the Tor­ toise. He felt wicked for taking such au advantage of a poky, old Tortoise, But what could he do? To show his utter contempt for the slow tortoise, he lay down under a shade tree and fell asleep. He knew that he could outrun the tortoise even With a big handicap, Bo when he waked up he found the Tortoiae had reached the goal aud was quietly steeping after his fatigue, MORAL: The race is not always to the one who can quote the most Latin. >. rif-aaitmV Tli*L« mw That Mailto Tami** Since adventuring into Egypt in quest of the raw material of whidh fiction is made, Mr. Gilbert Parker’a Canadian field* have been lying fal­ low.

New Firm* .:- As will be noticed elsewhere in this paper a slight change is made iu the management of one of our busi­ ness houses. The meat store which has so long been conducted by Mr. C. W. Crouse, now assumes a new title, that of O. W. Crouso & Son. Mr. Grouse has proven to the public his capabilities as a business man, having very carefully served the pub­ lic for twenty-two years. In the year 1879 Mr. Crouse rented the present store room and up to this time there has never lieen a day but that his doors have remained opeu. Chae. Crouse, J r. hus beet1, associated with the meat business alw'ut his father’s store since liis leaving .school and very truthfully can wo say that we know of no young man that has stayed so close to his father’s business as lias Charles. We predict as success­ ful business career under the new firm as under the'old. Fire Bags. At about eight o’clock Wednesday evening the alarm of fire was turned in. In a few minutes the fire depart­ ment was ou the scene, but no water was thrown. Tim fire was located in tho old Nisbet property on the corner of Maine and Cedar Streets, A few months ago the property was pur­ chased by the R. P. Chnrch, as a lo­ cation for their new building and con scqueatly no one has been living in the bouse. ’When first noticed tbc flames were burning briskly and bad it not been for prompt work of neighbors the house would have soon been enraped iu flames. The house without doubt had been set afire, as a bottle wai found dear that had contained coal oil, and carpet saturated with the same was found stuffed between the partitions. The perpetrator Was well on to his work as the fire was placed where it bad a very strong draft. The house as it stands is very dang­ erous for the front part has for years been used as« paint shop, and had fire reached this department the ad joining properties would have been hard to save, The chief of the fire department should condemn the property as dang­ erous and order it securely dosed, or station some ono about the house.

At the openiug of College Wednes­ day morning, a lnrgeand appreciative audience gathered in the college chapel to hear the exercises. A large number of tho former students were present, while many new faces were seen. President McKinney conducted the exercises. Scripture was read by Prof. McChesney, after which Dr. Morton asked God’s blessing on the work of the college. . After the ad­ dress of welcome by the president the audience was favored by a violin eolo by Miss Lucile Sillito, of Xenia, after which came a reading by Miss Mary Anna Cost, who will have charge of the,, elocution department the coming year. Miss Cost selected “How the Gospel Came to Jim Oaks” and delivered it in a very pleasing manner.' She displays exceptional ability and we predict a very success­ ful term for the .elocution class with Miss Costas instructor, Aftisic was furnished by a quartette. According to the program Rev, R. H , Hume, D. D., pastor of the U. P. Church at Springfield, delivered the address of the day. Before the speaker announced his theme “Man­ liness in College Life,” he gave a talk on the education of young meu land women in which were many gems of thought, eloquently and earnestly expressed. “ Manliness in College Life” will leave pleasant memories and an influence of good that will be lasting. The recitations for the different classes were then assigned, after which President McKinney gave n short talk to the pupils on the object *f their coming to college and their duties thereof. The college this year opened under very, auspicious circumstances and all feel as though the work will be very successful. , Partial list of new students in Cedarville College: / Earl Stormont, Cedarville.

Wbile skirmishing through the old Nesbit house during the night of the fire wo found an old paper by the -nameofTho Blade, published by Chas. Orr&Co. at Xenia, October 16, 1886, Vol. 1, No.* 3.. Among the “write-ups” wasa debate between Hon. John Little and L, H. Whiteman, there being considerable mud thrown from both sides. Among the Xenians mentioned were: H. L. Smith.Coates Kinney, J., M. Mil- burn, Hartley and Winaus. The golden wedding of Mr. and Airs. John C. Nisbet was also men­ tioned, a full reproduction of' which will appear later, giving considerable local history. The paper announces the ehallange of Hon. John Little to meet Hon. James E. Campbell in joint bebnte on the issues of the campaign. The following will-show the .differ­ ence between the' advertising of the doctors iu those days and that of the present: “Dr. J . D.

A few even ings ago a young gentlemen who has been keeping himself out of the city meat of the time, returned to call on liis “ best girl.” This young gentle man wandered on bis way thinking no doubt of the evening's enjoyment, and not aware of the jokes of the tele­ phone crank. Shortly before bis arrival, this residence having bad a box placed in it during the summer, was called up aud asked if a certain “Professor” bad reached there. They replied no, when the crank kindly informed the listener that he would' soon arrive. A few minutes elapsed and again 17 was called for, this time the crank inquires as to whether the person in question had reached hit desired destination and was informed that he had. That was not sufficient, and consequently the Professor was soon at the phone, where he was in­ formed that *11 that wai wanted was to know if he had reached there, This was the first call since the young gentleman had been in the city ant consequently the boys had to have t little fun at the Professor’s expense.

Goffim and Uigatt »i Of Cedarville Resume Duties With Prof. . R. A. Brown at the Helm.—Enroll­ ment Largest In Hisloiy of the Schools. The public schools after their usual vacation of three mopths resumed their work Monday.4' The usual amount of spirit was shown, all seem- ngly glad to get back to the old build­ ing. An unusual large number- of new pupils entered. There being so many pupils, , the customary rule of. laving all the -pupils assemble in the Chaple on the opening day was dis­ pensed with,'and each room had its own exercises. In the last two years of the high school the devotional exercises were conducted by Rey. J . F . Morton, after which addresses from Rev. San­ derson and Alayor Wolford, Clerk of the Board, were in. order. The necessity of additional room was very marked on that morning and :t will be but a year or so until the ward will be forced to build an addi­ tion of at least two rooms to the pres-', eut building, this being done, classes will be divided, which will necessitate , - the hiring of one or more teachers. "The following numbers will show the enrollment of the different rooms; No. 1, Rosa Stormont, 34; No. 2, Oiara Jackson, 26; No. 3, Mabello Iwens, 46; No, 4, Foster Alexander, iO; No. 5, Della Gilbert, 32; No. 6, Martha Bromagen, 24; No. 7; Mattie Crawford, 32; No, 8, Prof. B. A. Brown, 26. The total enrollment for the present year is 270, that of ast year was249,making a gain of 21. In 1899 the gain was 31 over the previous year, and the gain of tho present year over 1898 is 52. The high school this year is the largest in the history of the school, having 58 members. It is needless to predict that when the years work is completed, it can bo recorded as the most successful year in the history ot the Cedarville public schools, " As for our now professor, R. A , Brown we wish, him unlimited success in his new field, and this sityCcoMcan only be brought about by the co-oper- of teacher and students.
