The Fertilizer Works have been rushed this spring to fill orders for their goods.

In a conversation with the manager, Mr. Gerson, yesterday, ho stated that we should invite all the readers of the News to visit the works, and see for, themselves of what materials the article was made. This is something no other factory of the kind will do.

The addition to the works is about completed and they will soon be able to manufacture on a larger scale and thus be able to take care of of their increased business. The works have now become one of the substantial enterprises of the county and should receive the hearty support of our farmers as it is a home institution and if any order should not be as represented, the company is here and stands ready to make all representations good. The company has agents in all parts of the county and if anyone desires any of the goods and there is no resident agent, they may purchase the goods, direct at the works.

Last Monday A. M. Kerr, who lives three miles northwest of Bucyrus, found a fire near his the origin of which is very mysterious. A short distance from the barn a post of the fence had been raised from the ground by the frost and some pieces of rail had been piled under the fence to keep the bogs from getting through. Mr.

Kerr's son went around to that of the barn and found that the post had been badly burned and the ends of the rails were on fire. If it had. not been discovered it would have reached the barn in a short time. Mr. Kerr is at a loss to account for the fire, as he is very careful and never carries matches about the barn.

The Tiffin Races We are in receipt of the programme for the Tiffin Races, to be held at Tiffin, Ohio, July 4, 5, 6 and 7, 1898. The purses offered for the twelve races amount to 86,000.

On the afternoon of the 4th, Prof. Chapman and a lady aeronaut, will make a balloon ascension and the lady will make a parachute jump, when the balloon is at a height of over half a mile, at the race track, as an additional attraction for that day.

The Ohio. Our state will get a battleship. Secretary Long issued an order Monday directing that one of the ships authorized by the act of May 4, 1898, be named the "Ohio" in honor of our great state. Another will be called the "Maine" and the third one will be called the Missouri."

CAMP ALGER, VIRGINIA, June 18, '98. EDITOR NEWS: Several regiments are soon to be moved from Camp Alger to some southern point, presumably Fernandina, Florida, according to the rumors in camp. The troops which are said to be the ones to go are the Eighth Ohio, Sixth Massachusetts, Sixth Illinois, Thirty-third and Thirty. fourth Michigan, Ninth Massachusetts, Third and Sixty-fifth New York and First Rhode Island, These will form a division of three brigades and will probably cause a general change in the personnel of the officers commanding, as the regiments are taken without regard to their present organization. We may go by water.

One of the colonels of a regiment which is included in the list stated yesterday that, while he had no positive information that he was to go, he had received an intimation that his regiment would be on water within two weeks. This leads to the belief that the men will be sent south on transports, possibly from Newport News. Captain Butler yesterday began the inspection of the regiments that have been picked out for immediate action. The men of the Sixth Illinois, Eighth Ohio and Third New York, headed by their bands, were marched to their respective parade grounds and went through the ordeal of having the quick eye of a regular army officer look over their equipments. This took place shortly after 9 o'clock and will be followed up each day until the whole corps is inspected.

A commission has been inspecting the Eighth Ohio and will report its value to the proper authorities, in order that the state may be remunerated. There is. to be no more poker playing. General Butler has issued orders which prohibit gambling by those in the division under his command. Since pay day gambling has been one of the great evils of the camp and the men have either played cards or thrown dice from daylight to dark, always keeping out of sight of the officers.

Yesterday afternoon a man and woman, both colored, were arrested by the outer guards, for trying to sell whisky to the men. They were placed in the guard house and the civil authorities were notified. The Sixth and Ninth Massachusetts regiments celebrated Bunker Hill day yesterday, by not drilling and having a base ball game and a general holiday. The sixth won with a score of 4 to 5. In the evening they had running and jumping matches for prizes which were worth winning.

The prizes were presented by the Boston newspapers. A circular has been issued by Chief Surgeon Girard, which states that men who wish to enlist in the volunteer hospital corps, may do so and serve as long as the war lasts or so long as the officers think necessary. This is one of the points fought for by the hospital corps. Secretary Alger has appointed a board of officers to proceed to Sugar Loaf mountain, to select a tract of land suitable for a military camp. This mountain is near Harper's Ferry.

EAGER FOR ACTION. NOTES. New recruits are coming in and some of the regiments have full companies. Colonel Foster has issued orders not to allow any Illinois men to go to town. Sergeants Rodey and Thoman and private Chas.

Jones are on the sick list with had colds. Major W. T. Charmon, of the Sixth Illinois, was appointed provost marshal in the place of Major Vollrath, while the latter was home en a furlough. Thirty six recruits came in today, under command of Ralph Stewart, who was appointed squad commander.

They made, a fine appearance as they marched up the company street in military order. All the springs and wells on the camp ground have been inspected and found to contain pure water, except one within the lines of the Twelfth and a guard has been put over it, with orders to allow no one to use the water.

The city council met in regular session Tuesday evening, with all members present except Schaeffer, Vice President Exley in the chair. The minutes of the last regular meeting were read and approved, after which the committee reports were called, for. King, of the street and grade committee, reported an understanding had been reached with Mrs. Jane L.

Monnett, and that she would build a walk on South Walnut street. Ludwig, of the light committee, ported that he had made arrangements to have several lights removed and some trees trimmed. Engineer Shifley reported in regard to the sewer at the Sandusky avenue bridge. The cost of the change was about $260. The bills were then read and the pay ordinance: passed.

Under the head of unfinished business King spoke of the street at Sandusky avenue bridge and asked authority for the street and grade committee and the city engineer to attend to the work. The desired authority was given. Marshal Lichty spoke in favor of a curfew law for our city. He thought all children under sixteen years of age, unless accompanied by parents or guardian, should be off the streets at 8:30 in the winter and 9 o'clock in the summer. Clerk Blicke read an ordinance which had been adopted by the city of Newton, Iowa.

All seemed to be in favor of such an ordinance and the solicitor was ordered to prepare an ordinance for action at the next meeting. The Gay street extension was discussfed, but no action was taken. A petition was presented from property owners on West Rensselaer street, asking for the location of a water plug at the corner of Grace and Rensselaer streets. Referred to the light committee. John A.

Schaber asked for an extension of time on the franchise of the Incandescent Light Company. He asked for an extension of two years. The necessary ordinance was placed on its several readings and passed, under suspension of the rules. Complaint was made in regard to trees which hung down so low as to shut out the light. The city ordinance demanded that the trees should be trimmed up ten feet and should be enforced.

Complaint was also made about sidewalks. A motion was made by King to have an ordinance ready at the next meeting, and all members and officers make report of walks which should be built or repaired. Carried. The citizens of South Sandusky avenue asked that Watershed park fixed up and a motion was made to have the park graded and sodded. Carried.

Eugene Allen made complaint about the sidewalk which he had been ordered to build on the Marion road. He jected to the way. the assessments had been made and wanted the council to remedy matters. Engineer Shifley reported that there were conflicting stories about the way the walk was built. Referred to the engineer and solicitor, to report at the next meeting.

Adjourned. CITY COUNCIL. The Cake Walk. Something unique, in the way of an entertainment will be given on the Fourth, when a large platform will be erected in the middle of the Square, on which will be shown a "cake walk." This is something that few Bucyrus people have seen, yet it is something about which all have read, and all are anxious to see it. The cermony will be under the direction of a man from New York, who has had considerable experience in that line, and a number of entries have already been made, If you want to see something that will keep you laughing for a week, do not miss the cake walk.

DR. JOHN M. FIRSICK, Batesville, led. Congressional Convention. The thirteenth district congressional convention.

Roelle, permanent organization; Philip Schuler, resolutions; George Drexel, rules and, order of business; Philip Peters, congressional committeeman. The convention then adjourned for dinner.

After convention was called to order in the afternoon the committee on permanent organization reported in favor of making the temporary organization permanent. The report was adopted. The committee on resolutions reported the following whieh was adopted with great enthusiasm. We, the committee on resolutions, unanimously recommend the following platform tor your consideration: The democratsof the Thirteenth Congressional Ohio, in convention assembled, reaffirm and renew their allegiance to the principles of the party, emphasizing and endorsing the issues presented in the platform adopted by the national convention at Chicago in 1896, and ratified by over six millions of American voters that year. We recognize that our demand for the restoration of the free coinage of silver, and the admission silver and gold on equal terms to the United States mints, at the ratio of sixteen to one, Is the vital, issue before the American people, and will remain paramount until it is finally triumphant We hall with pleasure and pride the success of American arms.

on sea. and land, in the war with Spain; a war inspired by the patriotic sympathy of our people for suffering. struggling Cuba; a war for humanity, not for territorial aggrandizement; and we unhesitatingly declare for its vigorous ecution. To the 900 or more brave boys of this congressional district, who have voluntarily left home and the peaceful pursuits of life, to take up arms at their country's call, thereby assuming the hardships consequent to the horrors war, we send greeting. We are proud of the noble boys, and hope and pray all may be spared to again return to their firesides safe and sound, after Spain has been speedily vanquished and driven from this hemisphere.

We endorse the able, brilliant, courage and patriotic course of our representalive in congress, Hon. James A. Norton. -We commend him for his early espousal of the cause of free Cuba, in and out of congress; for his eloquent championship of, and vote for armed American intervention; for his vote for 850,000,000 to meet the emergencies of the war: for his true American and nonpartisan upholding of the administration in the vigorous prosecution of the war, whenever such action was taken. We commend his democracy and patriotism in maintainthat the burden of war expenses should be equitably levied on the rich as well as the poorer classes: for his opposition to a bond for issue, as pernicious and unnecessary; his record as the recognized leading champion of the deserving pensioners of the civil war, and we pledge him our undivided, constant support.

Mr. Frank H. Martz, of Coldwater, Ohio, and Miss Anna of this city, were united in marriage Wednesday morning, at Holy Trinity' Catholic church, by the pastor, Father M. Arnoldi, assisted by Father Sherrock, of Coldwater. After the ceremony the bridal party drove to the home of the bride's mother, on Mary street, where a wedding breakfast was served, and in the evening reception was given to the newly married pair.

They will make their home at Coldwater. Court. Judge Tobias held court Thursday, and gave his decision in the Deal dower case. None of the property of M. Deal, exhis interest in the Rowse-Deal bloek, sold for enough to pay the mortgages against it.

There was quite a surplus over the mortgages on the RowseDeal block and Mrs. Deal asked that she shuld be given dower for all the property out of the surplus from the sale of the one piece. It was contended by interested parties that she could only claim dower on each piece of property from the sale of that particular property, but Judge Tebias decided in favor of Mrs. Deal. The case will be taken to circuit court..
