Mrs. Powell, widow of the UU John Pow
ell, died at the eld homestead Sunday night,
Id the 66 year of her age. Mrs. Powell has
been an invalid for a long time, and at
the time of the burial of her husband was
nnable to go to the grave. She was one of the
oldest pioneer of the county, an estimable
lady and a good mother. ,Ta xaneral took
place yesterday. .
Tbe long lost drill was taken from the gas
well on Friday, much to the relief of every
body. The drill was curled up like a gimlet,
the effects of its fall of fifteen hundred feet.
The work of drilling will 'now pregress so
soon aa the old tubing can be repaired and
tbe tools got in shape again. We understand
the well will be sank 3,000 feet before it is
abandoneJ. May gas or oil be struck before
that depth is reached. ,
A big eat in prices on boots and shoes.
Owing to the very fine, dry weather which has
been against the sale of heavy goods, we have
made np our minds to place on sale our en
tire stock ot heavy boots and shoes for men,
boys, Ladies, Misses and Children at such
low prices that all in want of any goods in
this line, will save at least 25 cents on the
dollar by buying at the cash house of D. &
J.Wlon. . St
It is safe to say that Napoleon merchants
have sold at least 20 per cent, more goods
daring the months of October, November
and December than they have during those
months for five years past. And this, too,
under en administration which the Repnbli
cans told the people would ruin business and
let the government go to the dogs. This
government don't test simply upon the
shoulders of the Republican party, and God
be thanked that it does not, but is run by the
people for the people.
A large shoe factory with a capital of tO,.
000 or $o0,000, and which gives employment
to 100 people with a weekly pay roll of $1200,
is going begging atChillicothe. All they ask
of the citizens of that city is to give them a
building as a bonus, providing it binds itself
to employ 100 bands, twelve months in the
year for ten years, except when unavoidable
delayed with their work. Now, if Napoleon
had a board of trade in operation, who knows
but that we might gobble in this factory.
The muskrats have built huge houses, the

An exchange tells that in canvassing for
subscriptions its solicitor came across quite
a number of persons who "get more papers
than I can read now, and do not want a local
paper so long as I can borrow it from my
neighbor." These fellows always take a
"family journal" published in New York or
elsewhere containing thrilling and blood
curdling romances that make the young read
era despise home and yearn for the day they
can break away and go out into the far west
and become bad men and die with their boots
on.
Isa Leist, our well known and enterprising
druggist, begs leave to inform his many
customers that the improvements in his
drugstore have finally been completed. The
store now presents a very pleasing and
beautiful appearance, and with his fine stock
of Holiday Goods, it is not excelled by any
store in the State. The stock of drugs is
complete as ever, and all the new and rare
chemicals as well as tbe most common house
hold remedies can be found with him. The
preparation of family receipes has always
been a specialty with him; all receipes are
put np with the most scrupulous care and at
the very lowest figures. 2t
Napoleon has five dry goods stores, four
hardware stores, three drug stores, six boot
and shoe stores, four clothing stores, three
merchant tailoring concers, four millinery
stores, two bakerys, thirteen grocery stores,
five meat shops, two carrige and wagon fac
tories, four blacksmith shops, hoop factory,
two large grist mills, two planing mills, an
extensive brewery and bottling works, one
saw mill, oar factory, stave factory, two tile
yaeds, one brick kiln, two coal yards, one
grain elevator, woolen mills, two hotels and
hundreds of other smaller industries. On the
whole Napoleon is not a bad town to locate
and live in, and as it is one of the best built
towns in this part of the State it is a desira
ble point for those seeking investments.
That the world is never at a standstill is
proved by a recent decision of the Treasnry
Department at Washington, permitting the
Perfection Tea Can to pass the Custom
House free of doty. It recognized tbe fact
that the Perfection Tea Can consisted mere
ly of machinery, and was only a beneficial
substitute for the old-fashioned and danger
ous lead-lined packages. H. E. Cary has ta
ken advantage of this decision to import a
high-grade and choice nerve-stimulating
brand of nncolored Japan Tea, called "Oar
Favorite Tea," only in Perfection Tea Cans,
thus insuring the perfect preservation of all
its finer and more subtle volatile properties.

The great rush for Holiday Goods at Saur's
Drug and Book Store continues. Everybody
seems to make a grand rush for those beau
tiful books which Saur is selling so very
cheap. Never was there such a complete
stock and great variety displayed at this
house before. Remember that these goods
must be sold, that Saur never carries a Holi
day Stock over the year, and that you can
buy at this house just as cheap as you can
anywhere else, and often times very much
cheaper. Go and look over his stock of pho
tograph and autograph albums, books of
prose and of poetry, books for children and
books for the middle-aged and old; books for
everybody. Large illustrated family bibles
and testaments; toilet sets for ladies and gen
tlemen. Perfume cases; ladies shopping
bags, pocket books, etc., etc. Get the prices
and you cannot fail to buy and go home well
pleased with good bargains.
Sad Occurrence.
A sad occurrence took place in Ridge-
ville township on last Thursday evening,
which resulted in the death of a young
man. On that evening Mr. Henry Mil
ler, a son of Ambrose Miller, in company
with a lot of his young companions, repaired
to a neighbors on a "belling" spree. The
boys had their sport, but they imbibed a lit
tle too freely of intoxicants, and on their
return home young, Miller fell by the way
side and could not go further. His com
panions procured a wheelbarrow, in which
he was placed and conveyed to the home of
his father, some eighty rods distant. But
upon arriving there one can imagine their
horror to find that the young man was dead.
His body was taken into the house and the
Ridgeville physicians sent for, who pro
nounced that the young man came to his
untimely end by choking to death, caused by
his condition and the position he occupied
in the wheelbarrow. Mr. Miller was an ex
emplary young man, we are told, and was
the main support of his father at home upon
the farm, and his sad death has cast a gloom
over the entire neighborhood. He was aged
20 years, 2 months and 2 weeks. His funeral
took place at Ridgeville on last Sunday.

LARL).
There are some articles of
domestic economy in which we
are all interested alike, and some
concern a few. only. For in
stance, we all rise in our fam
ilies, sugar, salt, flour, wood,
coal oil, eta, some eat ' celery,
some not, some ese coffee and
others won't touch it. but if
there is one thing which we use
Winter and Summer alike, in
season and out of season, ,', it is
Lard; and yet there is nothing
we use that most people are 60
careless in buying ;It looks
white ' that makes it all 'riht,
but look your honest grocer in
the eye and ask him, "i. this
kittle rendered?" and if he can
answer without a quaver of
voice, -yes," and you can 'be
lieve him, you are nrettv. ir
of gettins: a srood articl.
he says "no, but it is m as
good,': don't believe him; This
steam rendered, refined, gummy
stuff which some of bur orn-
ceries are selling is'nt fit to
grease wagons. If any dealer
will Keep this kind nf rkp.-m
lard, let him also keep some, of
uie oesi ana give nis customers
a choice. Indeed he would
clear his conscience by keeping
the three grades Cthat ar fm-
sale at any city packing house)
uuu sen mem at auierent prices
as he does sugar. You go in
to a grocery and ask for a dol
lars wortu of sugar; -What kiu.i?" is
the first question of tlm polite clerk.
After he has done it up vou ask for
the same of lard; there is "no question
in reply now. it is all dishl fr. tl
same barrel or can. It is the best
cumon fure Lard this is all rifr'it, but
if otherwise, it is all wrong... "Bow
will you tell?" First buy of a re
sponsible dealer who plays you no
Imnta in . ! ' . .
"Wl"" auyminu you got ot him,
next insist on his keeoinff fWtricl.-
(or some other) kettle rendered lard
uk iibuu, men watcii toe article your
self. Gummy, sticky lard is never ' of
first quality, ft is steam rendered from
a whole hog (died a natural death per
hapsl or from the head and other offal.
We We no steam fixtures, render all
onr lard in kettles, and buy all our
hogs dressed, so we have no kit lard,
and more over when I tell a customer
ne is getting leaf lard, t hope 1 have
honor enough or policy enough to give
him what he buys. Truly y.iurs.
