Becins His Second Term.
This week tho county commissioners accepted the bond of Surveyor W. F. Hunt, who began his second term of oflice on November, 15 Mr. Hunt has just finished two very successful years in one of tho most intricate of county offices in which ho has given universal satisfaction, a golden truth to which tho voters of Montgomery county givo evidence at the last election. This is one of tho few oflices that should be as devoid of political significance as possible. Its occupant should bo chosen sololy upon his merits. John Buck, a most efficient civil engineer held the ollico for ten years, Ira McConnell for four years and Jamee Waugh 6ix years. Mr. Hunt is tho superibr of either of these gentlemen and bide fair to exceed even the long reign of John Buck, just because ths people know a good thing when they see it.'

The Happy Meeting of Elmer Marsh and Wife Precipitates Ollie in the Tureen.
The readers of THK REVIEW are famillar with that delightful little escapade indulged in by Elinor Marsh and Miss Ollie Mills last summer. Aftor the elopement Mrs. Marsh's grief was almost inconsolable and it was feared for a timo sho would become mentally unbalanced. She secured rooms on north Green street and settled down to an unloved and lonely life. Last week a ray of sunshine broke in upon her barren oxistonce in tho shape of an epistle from the wayward Elmer. The contents of the letter was a profusion of endearing epithets. He said that he still loved hor with an undying devotion, that lifo without her dear preEence was a hollow mockery, and enclosed a $10 sweet William that she might fly to his outstretched arms. The letter was dated at St. Louis and never once did it mention tho name of Ollie Milte. Mrs. Marsh'sdoparture for St. Louis, was accom--panicd with great haste and sho was almost wild with joy at the prospect of. meeting the dear boy once more. Arriving at St. Louis she was met at thostation by Elmer who fell upon her neck and wept until his tears threatened todeluge tho building. Tho pair at once repaired to Elmer's "homo" where Mrs.
Marsh was not a little surprised to find Miss Ollie Mills quietly composed in a gentle sloop. The apartments were squalid and unkempt denoting that Ollio was evidently a novice in the art of house-keeping. When Ollie awoke she manifested no little surprise to see Mrs. Marsh and yet was glad to see her. The whole party came in from St. Louis Saturday night. Ollie went to the homo of her mother noar the Plum street depot and Mr. and Mrs. Marsh to the latter's rooms. A year ago Mr. Marsh possessed an excellent reputation with every prospect for a successful business life. MisB Mills was an innocent, happy young girl. In a

moment both lives were forever blasted. They have "sown a wind and will reap a whirl-wind." Mr. and Mrs. Marah will loavo Crawfordsville at once.
