Of
tbe question, "With whom and with
what baa the Sunday School to do ?"
was followed by a "Question Draw
er," when questions of praotlcal im
portance were answered by promi
nent workers, in abort, spicy speech-
In tbe afternoon the general
theme, "Workers Qualified," was
divided Into two parts, and Rev. C.
M. Rupe spoke on "Workers Quali
fied by a Knowledge of God's
Work," and C.H. Miller on "Work
era Qualified by a Knowledge of
Methods." The Committee on En
rollment reported an attendance of
over a hundred delegates.
Tbe following resolutions were re
ported.
I. Tbat we congratulate tbe Sun
day School workers of the county up
on tbe re-organization of tbe Beneca
County Bunday School Union.
II. That we hold a County organi
zation to ie or great importance.
with reference to increase efficiency
in Bunday School work throughout
the county, and therefore pledge oar
selves, as christian workers in this
department of tbe Master's service,
to use our personal and united en
deavors to maintain and advance the
interests of this organization.
III. Tbat a thorough organization
of the county by townships, is
essential to success in tbe work, and
we call upon all interested (and wbo
are not ?) to give us their aid and in
fluence la tbe early consummation of
this great object.
Tuesday eveulug, Rev. A. H. Stu
debaker, of Bucyrus, spoke on
"Workers Consecrated." This ad
dress was replete with practical sug
gestions, and tbe subject bandied in a
very able manner, showing first the
essentials of success in any calling was
knowledge of It ; second, a
love for it ; also tbat a teacher needed
third "aptness to teach." These
qualifications applied to Sunday
School workers show tbat no half
hearted, indifferent or oareleas Instruc
tors can expect to succeed. Tbe de
mand for consecrated workers, come
also from the eternal results of the
work, and tbe limited time In wbicb
to do it. Tbe fact tbat a consecrated
work Is to be done, calls for conse
crated teachers, and the right, if one
unconsecrated worker be employed,
tbat two, ten, all, can be such. This is
no work for trifiers, tbe issue is too
momentous. After a service of song
tbe Convention adjourned to meet at
Attica, November Gth aud Ctb.
Meanwhile tbe work Is to be pushed
all ever tho County.

SANDUSKY COUNTY.
Last Friday night, about 10 o'clcck,
tbe bleating of abeep mingled with
tbe loud barking of a dog was beard
in the pasture of Daniel Hensel. It
awakened some of tbe neighbors and
two of them sallied forth into tbe
moonlight armed with a pistol snd
a snot gnn. It was found that four
teen of tbe sheep had been bitten, two
or three of wbicb were dead. The
dog, which belenged to John Grubb,
was shot the next morning..A
few days ago, John Short, while plow
ing on bis farm, In Ballvllle township,
turned up au Immense elk horu which
broke into several pieces, one of which
was about ten inches long and seven
inches round it. This relic of a mam
moth elk which roamed over the San
dusky valley, prairie and forests, has
probably lain for centuries beneath the
turf, until the deep thrust plow share
brought it to tbe surface, a reminis
cence of early days.

An Understanding Arrived At.
About ten o'clock this morning a
tramp went Into a C street saloon and
devoted ten minutes In a very zealous
manner to tbe lunch table. By tbe
time be bad masticated about a pound
ot corned beef tbe barkeeper stepped
up and remarked :
"This table is for drinkers."
"Then why don't you bring co your
drinks ? I've been bere ten minutes
and bav'nt seen a drop of anything.
If its a drlukln' table, wbere's tbe
fluid."
"I mean it's for tbe patrons of tbe
bar," said tbe barkeeper.
"Then why ain't tbey bere? I
s'sposeyou mean that a man mutt
spend money at tbe bar before be
eats ?"
"Exactly."
"Tbat takes me In. I took a drink
bere last summer, aud did not eat a
mouthful, and if I ain't entitled to a
lunch on tbat drink then tbe system
must be a failure all round."
"But tbe place baa changed bands
since then," said tbe barkeeper, pick
ing up a bung starter.
"Ah, Indeed ?" replied the urbane
bummer, "tbat fact, as your gesture
would imply, raises a new and embar
rassing complication in our diplo
matic relations, I will therefore re
cede, as It were, from my original po
sition and await tbs assembling of the
Peace Congress."
He bad been gradually backing to
wards tbe door as be spoke, and be
lodged out just In time to evade tbe
projectile hurled at hlra by the Indig

Nature as a Plagiarist.
Two brothers in SL Louis reaemble
each other so exactly tbat it Is wltb
great difficulty tbat tbey tell them
selves apart. How others are con
fused Is illustrated by tbe following
story :
It Is a rule In tbe Circuit Court tbat
but one attorney on each aids shall
examine witnesses. In a recent trial,
In which Thomas and Tbomas were
engaged, this rule was violated by
tbem iu a very dexterous manner.
Stepping to one aids, as if for pri
vate consultation, tbey exchanged
chairs, and no on could tell tbat it
was not tbe same one wbo bad before
occupied tbe seat. Ia tlits way tbey
relieved each otber, while the lawyer
on the otber aide bad to stop from ex
exbaustion. "Mr. Tbomas," said a Circuit Judge
short time ago, "are you ready to
argue tbat motion now ?"
"What motion your Hooor T'
"The motion yoo spoke of yester
day." "Your Honor, I was not In the
court-room yesterday."
"Your memory must be very short,
sir, I saw you bere."
"Not me, your Honor."
"I know It was you ; and If you
trifle with tbe court, I shall bave to
fine you for contempt, sir."
"Your Honor, It was my motion."
said tbe otber Tbomas, entering tbe
room. Tbe Judge looked at tne two
Thomases In amazement, and, re
covering his good humor, remarked
tbat nature bail committed a plagiar
ism iu the case nf oue of I hero, be
