Mr. Jonathan Thatcher of West Liberty, a Justico of Peace in that place and Dr. Jonathan Thatcher of Urbana, cousins, who were in Xonia attending the G. A. R. encampment made Gedar- ville, their native town a visit after an absence of fifty-five years, These pleasant gentlemen made thi* office a call and were greatly surprised to know of the improve­ ment and changes that have been made, here in the past half century,! While they found few of their old ’ old time friends here yet they recall with vivid recollection the incidents of their boyhood. As many of the old land marks, with-which there was considerable early history are gone, the gentlemen had some difit- culty in establishing directions. . A trip to the cliffs and. a drink from the old springwere alone worth the time and trouble of cominghere. Mr. Thatcher of "West Liberty stated that he at one time edited the De Graff Banner. His father brought the first threshing outfit into this county and modernized wheat harvesting at that time. Dr. Thatcher of Urbana attended public schools with Hou. Whiteiaw Reid at the MoEutyre district school. These gentlemen yet have a warm feeling for Cedarville and her peo­ ple. Wild West; Far East. Many interesting features Will be seen with the Buffalo and Pawnee: Bill exhibition*. . Considerable interest has been arousedm this vicinity through the appearance of Bull do Bill’s Wild West and Pawnee Bill’s Far East at Springfield, July tth. GOl.-Wm. F.

Contrasted with this scene will be an Oriental Spectacle Which will picture—the gorgeous beauties of the Far East, its pagean­ try, people, its pleasures and pas­ times and its strange coBtumes and customs. Turning again to Amer­ ican history there will be Ail At­ tack Upon an Emigrant Train, A Holiday at “T-E" Rauch by Ind­ ians showing varied pictures of ear­ ly life upon tho boundless plains, Rossi’s Musical Elephants will be a particular feature of tho Far Ea3t scene and as an individual feature of the Wild West section of the ex­ hibition Ray Thompson’s Trained Western Range of Horses, will bo simv/n in facts of grace and equine skill. Shatpshooting by Johnny Baker will be a particular attractive feature and a bunch ot. bucking bronchos will furnish the princi­ pal eoinody element of a truly ex­ hilarating and strenuous exhibD tion.
