OHIO. FRIDAY,’ NOVEMBER 15, 1905. PRICE $1,00 A YEAR. gen J. Ridgway Taken in by SpringfieldPolice-Goes to Cincinnati, .Benjamins J. Ridgway* 23 years of ■ age, was arrested Tuesday afternoon atJbis boardinghouse in Springfield,* at the request of Cincinnati anthorlies, for forgery committed while in the latter city. Ridgway claimed to bo a book keeper at the Western Union Telegraph office but ibis is denied, He was without money or baggage and refused to talk on the subject of his arrest. ; . JEiidgway was sent to Zion City from Cincinnati by the Bookkeepers associ­ ation to examine the books of .the Dowie financial institutions and hod been there about two months whetf be asserted bis disbelief in the Dowie faith, and .that Dowie was the greatest grafter in the world, Consequently, he was expelled from the city, which gave him considerable newspaper no­ toriety at the time. While examining theibooks he tip­ ped the imformation to a Chicago pa­ per at a good figure •and this gave' rise to. trouble. His full report. will appear in the Now Years number of the Bookkeeper, published at Detroit. He claimes to have found out the financial standing or’ . Dowie and the City and reports tint the whole insti-J tutionis fur ihe personal benefit of John Alexander Dowie, who is. rated at $35,000,000. Ridgway, in his ex­ amination, claims1 to-have found what was paid the high' “ moguls” of the church. He says the salaries range from $800 to $5000 per year and that some of. the officers have no more be­ lief in the church limn. tile many thousands on the outside. A'professor who left these, parts, fur Zion City is said to receive $2200 per annum. The rr-eerda show that - the Northwestern Railroad company received over $250,- G00 from Zion City for mileage and freight, consequently they have put up a $40,000 depot. Ridgway has been taken to Cincin­ nati to answer to the charge of forg­ ery said to b^s on his uncle, Charles Ridgway, h :—Go. to Cooper’s for coni hods, fire shovels, etc: Try ffime of those boneless herrings, they are flue, at Shrouds’.' ^ • —The largest, best and cheapest line of robes and horse blankets ever shown in Cedarville, at Kerr &Hast- ings Bros’*. —Plat for Barlow & Wilson’s Min­ strels will open* Tuesday, Npv. ’ 24.

McCollum of Pennsylvania owed his election to a singular accident. He was nominated for the -Vacant judgeship by the .Democratic, state convention of 1888 in opposition to James T. Mitchell, the Republican candidate. There was .then no chance of his election, but the death of one of the justices made another vacancy on the bench, and both Mitchell and McCollum, were chosen.. Lots were then cast for.., seniority of rank, as their commissions were to expire at the same time, January, 1910, and McCollum had the further luck of drawing tho prize and so succeeded to the chief justieeohip. ' His Personal,Memoirs. A man of eighty’ years died in ■New York city the other day leav­ ing written on a small sheet of pa­ per the following: “Personal mem-, oirs. A t the age of thirty I, gave up dancing, at forty my endeavors to please the fair sex,- at fifty my regard of public opinion, at sixty the trouble of-thinking, and I have now become a true sage, or an ego­ tist,* which is the same thing. • I have never -meddled in any mar­ riage or scandals, I have never rec­ ommended a cook or a physician, consequently I have never attempt­ ed the life, of any one.” - Horseshoeing,':'".,'.'' Robert Bonner was the man who .started fancy prices for' horseshoe-- ing when he paid $100 for shoeing Dexter. •There are expert black­ smiths who work only for owners'-of big stable^ and who. travel with crack Tacing horses wherever they, g o .. Some of these blacksmiths get $12,000 a year and expenses; be­ sides a liberal present4 if the owner has had a .lucky year. The black­ smith of a crack stable is constantly asked for' castoff shoes from crack horses by persons who want to gild them and frame them “ just for luck.” ^______ , Decorated With Elk Teeth. A dress owned by a Kiowa Indian squaw'was sold in El Reno, Okla., fer.$l,600, and the purchaser thinks he was lucky to get it at that price. It is lavishly decorated vvith elk teeth, which are becoming almost as valuable as pearls, and the squaw, .like many of ber paleface sisters,- thought-that $1,600 was altogether too much money to be invested in one dress., COUNCIL'SREGU- LAB METING MondayEvening, Results in the Discussion of the ,Orr Road - Petition and OtherMatters.

WElMER, 1 fresh and Sail IBeai, - 1 Bologna Sausage mi Poultry. w mM The regular monthly meeting of council was held Monday evening there being no special business before this body. One of the subjects up for discussion was the question in regard to Mr. J, R Orr moving his fence on­ to what the corporation considers pub­ lic highway' A committee was ap­ pointed,to take legal steps and report Thursday evening. The matter will be handed over, to the county com­ missioners for them to settle. Messrs, Gillaugh, Andrew ami Bull were ap­ pointed on the committee, The street committee reported that they were unable to get crushed stone and that the streets were needing some grading. The gravel of Air. Jobjj Taylor was discussed, he asked 60 cents delivered, Messrs. Walker,;' Fields and Caldwell were appointed'; to’ examine quality and secure a lower; price. As-the streets ore in need op repair and considerable work will be required, council again starts - out to work out poll tax. The street corn- miBsioneer reports only about 35 men who paid or worked out this tax and that' there is about one hundred who have not, many,'of 'them/ refusing to perform such labor or send a man. While the Timmons case was dropped in Commou pleas court some weeks ago, it is the intention of the present- administration forcing every eligible man to comply with The law. The street comrnissioneer was instructed to again notify the parties and should they refuse give ihein the required uumbefoof days and enter suit. The members of council seem,to be in fn- .vor of making a test case, even if it is necessary^to (Tarry it to thb highest court. Hhmild all this tax lie worked out our streets could .he put in first class condition without a great deal of expense: ■ Reports of the different committees were read ancf accepted. ' The treas­ urer’s report showed that there was $1985.45 to tho credit of the corpora­ tion. The monthly bills amounted to $588.1G of which $289 Was the pay­ ment of a bond and interest held by Mr, John Nisbet of Xenia. The bond was issued ir, f$97 for incurred in­ debtedness. Council recessed until Thursday evening, The Voice From- the Gallery, Some years ago when the Carl Rosa-Opera company were playing “Faust” at the Theater Royal in Dublin a voice from the gallery dis­ turbed the harmony of the conclud­ ing scene and led to a speedier fall of the curtain than had been antic­ ipated, It happened t}iat the rep­ resentative of Faust was as •corpu­ lent of person as he was sympathet­ ic of voice, and the former, charac­ teristic led to the contretemps of his sticking fast in the trapdoor, being therefore unable to comply with Mcphistophelcs’ final injunc­ tion' to descend to the fiery region, Mcphistophelcs watbled forth hia injunction more aian.once, but still Faust stuck where he was, A dead pause followed, broken by tho kind­ ly encouragement of one gallery boy to a friend among the gods: “Lar­ ry, my hoy, there’s luck for na allj the place is full I” -Told at the Liars' Club, “No sooner was I seated in the, chair-than the barber commented on tho weather and directed a cur­ rent of. discourse into my ears. _ “ ‘Jb ne comprend pas/ said T* with An inward chuckle, thinking his volubility would.be checked. “In very good French he started in afresh. I looked at hijtn as if be­ wildered and then interrupted him by asking: . , “ ‘Wasr sagen Sic?’ . “Ho began to “ftpllat" in German all fftat he had been saying, when I {.shut him off with: I “ Till, talk to me with your fin- ! gers. I’m deaf and dumb!*” J Made an Impression. j “ I wonder,” ' said Mr, Pschucks, . the gifted tragedian, “who that man was that came to me after the play was over and told me my acting in- the final scene had made him abed I “ I*think/* Replied the manager, “ that Was the new dramatic critic of the Daily Bread/* The roast Mr. Psclnieks got in next morning’s issue of the Daily Bread seemed to' indicate that the rmiJhtgef’a impression, was correct,'—' Chisago Tribune.
