J. C Jackson, of Columbus, will deliver the annual address before the Christian Associations.

We anticipate from him n very in spiring and helpful address.

The Annual Prize Declamation Contest will take place as usual in the Congregational Church, at 7:30 P. M. The interesting exercises of Class Day will be held on the Campus from 10 to 12 A. M.

The oration before tho Liter ary Societies will be delivered at 7:30 P. M. in the Congregational Church, by Eev. F Trumbull Lee, D. D , of Cin cinnati. Dr. Lee is the pastor of the large, aristocratic Second Presbyterian Church in Cincinnati, and is drawing immense audiences His address on "Man at His Best" will undoubtedly prove one of the attractive features of our Commencement Week. Wednesday at 8:30 tho annual meet ing of the corporation will be held and the closing exercises of the Literary Societies and the conferring of the So ciety Diplomas will take place at 10 o'clock. The Alumni meeting will convene in Andrews Hall at 11 A. M. and u ill be followed by the Alumni Banquet from 12 to 3. The Alumni Oration this year is to be by Rev. John Rusk, of Chicago.

D , of Chicago, tho successor of tho famous Prof. Swing of the Central Church. Dr. 1111 hs h one of tho best known orators in tho west, in the very prime of his pow--ers and he is much sought after for Commencement occasions and platform addresses. His addross on the Message of John Ruskiu to the Nineteonth Cen tury has been especially prepared for College men and will undoubtedly prove one of tho most popular and en tertaining htaid in Marietta for many years. Dr Iljllis is not only a very finished and polished orator, but un derstands aujllenccs and how long it is wlso for alectuter to hold his audience. I can nssura our good people that in matter, manner, hpuit and length of treatment tho Commencement Address will bo in every w ay satisfactory. I congratulate the friends of both in stitutions in tho opportunity that will bo theirs of hearing four exceptionally strong and gifted men, and there is every reason to believe that tho Com mencement program of this year will equal if it docs not surpass that of any previous Commencement Week, To thesq exercises we cordially in vito all interested and assure them that we will do everything in our pow er to mako tho entiro program one which they will enjoy hearing and which, they will delight frequently to recall. Thanking you for your courtesy and kindness In printing tMis announce ment, I remain, in behulf of tho Col lege, Very gratefully yours, John W. Simpson. Tho New Strike. There is considerable Interest being taken In the new oil strike in Washing ton county, Ohio, between Raven Rock and Bens. Run station on this side of tho river. Tho well is located about a mile and a half out from the river. The gravity of the oil in the new gush er was tested yesterday and is found to be 51 and 8-10ths, nearly as light as tho oil in this field. A peculiar thing about tho field is that one of the other wails drilled, in sorao time ago near this gusher and which is enow making 3 barrels of oil a day, produces oil that is, so light it could not bo tcstad-.with an ordinary apparatus used for testing oil, and it is said to be lighter even than the Moundsvillo oil, which is 03 gravity. The well started to flowing 20 barrels an hour and yesterday evening it was making 10 barrels an hour and seemed to be settled down to that gait It has only been drilled into tho sand be tween two and three feet and may show up very much better after being drilled deeper, and then again it may not show up any better and not pro duce as much oil as it is now malting. An old experienced oil producer was down to see the well yesterday and said to a Reviewreporter this morning that in his judgement the well was act ing more like the Wick gushers do than anything else he could liken it to. This- well may be the tapping of a small pool of oil or it may be the open ing up of a long extention south of the Sistersville pool, but all of this is at present guess work, and nothing will definitely settle the question as to what the pool really is but the drill. All the land around the field has been leased up and several new wells will be started at on,ce. Oil Review. WHAT THE FLOWERS MEAN. Tho scarlet fuchsia is symbolic ot good tasto. There in nothing prettier than a bed of these flowers, the bril liancy of their hue being admirably set off by tho green of their foliage. The American elm has been (sug gested as an emblem of patriotism. Several historic elm trees are men tioned in our revolutionary annals, and from one of these the idea probably originated. Tho cedar is an emblem of Immor tality, the symbol being suggested by ita evergreen foliage. It Is said to have been so regarded by the Jews a thousand years before tho Christian era. Tho white carnation is regarded in L'ngland as an emblem of disdain. This idea was probably suggested by tho up right habit of the flower, which nods and waves haughtily in the breeze. Tho daffodil is a symbol of chivalry. It was once a favorite flower in Fiance, and at one time a fashion pre ailed of gentlemen wearing bunches of daffodils in their hats with their plumes. FOREIGN CHATTER. Bombay is now known as tho "Man chester of India." At least 5720,000,000 worth of British property is always on the sea. Tho oldest family in the British isles is the Mar family, dating back to 1093. Tho oldest national flag in tho world is that of Denmark, which has been in uso since the j ear 1219. A school of blind people at work will form ono of tho groups in Industry hall at tho Swiss national exhibition. A remarkable musket, said to have belonged to Alexander Selkirk, the prototype of Robinson Crusoe, has been offered for sale in Edinburgh. IN OUR OWN DOMAIN. There are 47 Chinese temples in America. A majority of the members of tho Milwaukee city council are acthc heclmen. Tho total volume of gold and silver now in use in the United States is eight times as much ns itwasinlS73. It is estimated that there are 40.00T women a otcrs in Utah and 10,000 indre who may become naturalized.

May 25, After a three year's chase by Government officers John Broy, who is accused with being tho chief of the notorious gang, famil iarly known in tho Ohio valley as the "Fort Sidney gang of Forty Tbtoyes," has beeu captured. A telegram tb Detectlvo J. R. Mehen, ex-United States Deputy Marshal, states that ho is in custody at Evansville, Ind. Broy is badly wanted by tho United States Court in Ohio and West Virginia. Ho is accused of being the chief of tho worst gang of postofflce thieves, burg lars and highway robbers in this sec tion since the time of the notorious Murrel. Several years ngo special officers were sent out to. break up tho gang, which had robbed postottlces, stores and individuals indiscriminate ly from Marshall county to tho Big Sandy along the Ohio. Tho robbery of the St. Marys post office was the first one to offer a serious clow to tho gang, which in three, months had robbed postofflces and stores at Dutcher, Cockransyille and half a dozen places in Ohio. At Friend ly three stores were entered- in one night, and at St Marys, Ravenswood, Ripley and other places many mer chants suffered. Captain Mehen and Sheriff Reynolds, together with several United States officers, got onto the track of the thieves and succeeded in clinching the crime tb the Ft. Sidney gang. The name was received from the lo cation of their headquarters about 8 miles from St Marys. A part of tho gang was chased down the river and eaptured-in a shanty-boat, which was filled with stolen property, including drygoods, stamps, jewelry and other stuff. The boat, goods and men were brought back. From clews secured on the boat three men named Bailey and three others wero run down before the gang got word and scattered. Eleven were sent to the penitentiary. The search was continued and others were gath ered in, but the leader, John Broy, could not be located. Broy was desperate and as elusive as an eel. Half a dozen times, when the officers were sure of him he had slipped through their fingers. He will be brought back to answer the charges against him. Reception Riven by Mrs. Samuel llurt. Mrs. Samuel Hart entertained very handsomely Tuesday afternoon and evening at her home on Putnam St. Her doors were thrown open from four until eight to her hosts of lady friends. The occasion was one of unusual bril liancy. The graciousness of the host ess, the rooms of this home made moie attractive than 'usual with quantities of smilax, red and pink rose buds, tho charming assistants, and the gay spring attire of those fortunate enough to be present, each contributed its share. Miss Rebekah Nye asked the guests into the dining room where Misses Marie and Helen Buell, Miss Katharine Nye, Miss May Riley and Miss Alice Eells were in charge and dispensed most bountifully ices, cakes, strawberries, bonbons, olives, coffee and lemonade. What Will It Count? Misfortune Irom the cradle has cast her pall O er the pathway of many an honest man, And the world rejoices to iee him fall Rather than lend him a helping hand. He may be honest, kind hearted and pure. As It lies In one's nower to be. The world will discard him If he chance to be poor; 'Tls a matter of money, you see. Tls a matter of mansions and terrace and lawns, And the cut of the clothes that he wears, And the banquets be gives and the style he puts on, It is not by the name that he beats No poektts are made in the long white shroud, No sente of touch In a pulseless hand. Oh how can you take It beyond the clouds The wealth you store In the present land Then whit will your mansions and millions be worth, Thou hast pround God's poor these years to hoard1 You will take at death what you brought at - birth, And that will be nothing, I thank tho Lord J.
