(Greenfield is now suffering and

...V^Te permanently injured uuless the situation is changed soon. That there is plenty of gas iu this field is proved by the fact that good wells have been procured and are being procured all over this couuty except in Sugarcreek towvship and there no ex eusive efforts have been made. The Greeufleld Gas Company however claims to have so much mouey invested in their plaut that all tilings being considered they would not 1 just fled in putting in additional wells to supply gas to our people unless the oidinance prices be raised. What have they inverfted. They have a plant aud six wells. Should that have cost any enormous amount of money? We should think not. If they and others have been so injudicious as to drill wells around the city on town lots they need not be surprised to see two or more wells only drawing what one ought to. It would have been the proper thing ior pipe lines to have been extended into the country so that wells would have been a sufficient distance apart. If mistakes have been made by directois and managers the people do not care to bear them. Other towns and cities have .xceile:)t service at as low rates as (jree licM an in some cases lower even when t'te situation is not so favorable for lue company making money ou account of gas having to be piped farther the consumers being more widely scattered and nut nearly numerous. Below we give the \ites ol Greenfield aud of some OL our neighboring tow us and cities.

*Jim Hazelton is wintering at Paris,

of natural gas in

§p

*Kremliu is by ord Russell, full broth er to Mand S., 2:08%. *A horse to trot a mile in two minute mast average forty-four feet in a second *Sanip Wilson of Rusliville will train, a public stable at Lexington, Ky., next year. *A large number of the sensational performers have been bred by small breeders and fanners •Keep your colts fat while young. Give them all they want to eat and it will le money in your pocket. •Stockton, Cal., Nov. 24—-Stamboul is again' king of the turf. He trotted on a kite shaped track, to-day in 2:07K. *Simmons now has four in the 2:15 list SimniMUS is the sire of Mark E. Simmons owned by Dr. Uauua at Warrington.

The man who fails to advertise his stallions in these times of fierce competition will ilud himself dropping behind in ihe race tor patronage. *Adam Mingle of Eden, has a Lockethie mare with a weanling colt by Mai Jt! E. Simmons that he desires to sell. They are both as line as silk.

:C.

H. Nelson says Nelson's stud duties for 1592 foot up to $52,500 and his exhibition trotting to$10,000 more. Not bad] for an outlawed stallion's income. *McGinty (2) 2:15%' has lauded at the Fair Ground Park, Indianapolis in good shiipe. He was not started to lower his recurd at'Nashville, but worked outj below 2:12. "Hither says Kremlin, 2:07%, can go an eighth in 14 seconds, a 1:56 clip. Those who have seen him can vouch for great bursts of speed in fact, no horSe can go away as fast as he can, and but few can stay with him the whole mile *While at "Warrington recently, Dr. Hamia showed us his fine colt, George H. by Mark E. Simmons-, dam by Hoosier Boy, who»e dam was by Ajax 40 out of the dam of American Boy. George H. is an elegant colt aud oue of the squarest and I test trotters of his age we ever saw.

Kremlin, 2:07%, is a large horse, standing sixteen hands high aud weigh over eleven hundred pounds. Kriu, 2:24% another son of Eventide, but sired by Belmont, is larger than Kremlin and of very' heavy bone. He is owned at Flemington, N.J. *It looks like Nancy Hanks should be given a rest after winniug $33,000 this season and a good round sum before. She has never been off the turf since her introduction. She will in time be bred to Ariou, 2:10%. It is to be hoped that the mistake will not be make by waiting as was the case with Maud S.

Veterinarian Robert Smith of this city has made a great success in the case of Warreu Coinstock's black mare that broke her leg near the fet lock in October People wanted Mr. C. to kill the mare, but Mr. Smith succeeded in saving the mare and her leg is well aud all O. K. thanks to care aud skill. *The bay horse Dandy O., that made a record of 2:26X last year, has been a bread winner this year and has reduced his record from time to time. Last Thursday he appeared at Holton, Kan., and notwithstanding the cold west wind went against his 2:13 mark and reduced it to 2:11. He is by Dalbrino, a son of Hauibriiio, 2:21+. *Mr. Ingnm.un, of Dixon, 111., owner of Delmarch, 2:11.'/j. recently refused an offer of $1,250 lor weanling colt by that celebrated stallion. H* writes that Delmarch will undoubtedly prove as great a sire as he w-is a race horse. Delmarch is bv Hambrino, the sire of Hamdallah and not as well bred as Hamdallah on his dams side. Hamdnllah is in charge of J. T. Tiudall aud makiug a fall season here.

*M»xey Cold), 2:13^: Axtel!,2:l2 Nelson, 2:10, Allerton, 2:09^ Palo Alto, 2:08%: Stamboul, 2:07%:« I Kremlin, 2.07%, the champion stallions from 1884, have all made t.iieir records .(gainst time. Axtell has a ice record of 2:14, Nelson of 2:13,, Allerton of 2:13^", Palo Alto of 2:1o, Kremlin of 2:11}^, aud Stamboul of 2:15. So it will be seen that the champion at this writing hus the best race record of the above uamtd horses.

*The records of this season shows Simmons 2,28,to be the greatest sire of trotters of his agt—thirteen—that ever lived. He has four to his credit in 2:13% and beiter, whose average record is 2:12% aud each of them great, race horses. The reduction of their records this year promises a greater frture for Sinimons. Greenleaf from 2:22J-o to 2:10X New York Central from 2:17% to 2:13% Simmicolon from 2:19 to 2:13%.

^Nephew 1220 by Hambrino is the sire of New flower (3), 2:25% Vina Belle (3), 2:29)£ Nenox (4), 2:27%: Benny C. 2:27 Chantilly, 2:29% Elden (8), 2:19K^ Ameer, 2:27, and Flower fcjy, 2:27%. This makes sixteen trotters for him, and besides these, he is the sire of Bracelet, 2:2t, and Barney Horn, 2:23%. Nephew's fastest performer is Beaury Mc., 2.14V ,, aud his next fastest is the three-year-old filly Elden, 2:19^, out of Elloneer by Electioneer.

*Duriug the trotting season now being brought to a close, fifteen stalliois haT--had ten or more of their get become standard by performance as trotters or pacers with records of 2:30 or better, or 2:25 or better respectively. In no other year has there been snch a great showing when the standard was ten new performers for each horse, aud in view of this fact it is interesting to note that thirteen of the fifteen stallions in this list trace directly in the malt, line to Rysdyk's Hambletonian, and that no less than eight, or over fifty per ceut, of them are sous of George Wilkes.

Notwithstanding reports to that effect I have not severed my connection with the R£PUIILICAN, and had not even thought ot doiug so unless at the expiration oi tuia year. True 1 had another »n»r p'-oject in mi:d in another town for a tune, but have not perfected arrangements as yet and it is not.' likely, ?hat 1 will. When my labors cease irom tiiis paper with which I nave been pleasantly associated for almost four years, I yili make announcements of tcie l«ct IIU tier my own Nou deplume,no other is genie. mark copy righted. 1 said

asancly associated which is a fact in ways not only with the, manage aient the pat er in all particulars, but with all people, throughout the country as well. Although opportunity may never oifer for repaying the many royal kindnesses aud the courtesies extended jthe REPUBLICAN, by the many good and Ikiud hearted people, that it. has been our [great pleasure to know, yet will 1 always ihave a warm spot in my heart for them. And should late see fit that seek a new rield, 1 will ever cherish iu my memory the many pleasant smiles and kiud onis 'that have oft tiuies sent me on my rejoicing, pleased with all mankind, it comes so natural to speak in behalf ot this paper, and to receive favorable comment concerning it iia 1 "Rambe" aooiu, it seems it would be hard to assume so"e other role. However the "Rambler's Rounds" will continue to appear in the REPUBLICAN as usual, as they have been doing, which will be evidence that I am still circulating. They will appear uutii further notice.

In my rambliugs I have known no political lines among my friends, all wno have ever read my sketches, orcouveased with me, kuow that party considerations iiave always been wholly disregarded by nie. My praises and commendations have beeu fairly distributed, where I thought they deserved to be. My warmest commendations, have known no party and also the same of those of whom I disapproved. I have never had but one test to apply to any man. Is he a sincere friend to the truth, houesty and uprightness. If he i*i then hecan count on our friendship every time, no matter what his party a initiations, his creed or btiaiuess may be.

C. B. Keesliug, the Pendleton wide awake, was loading a large invoice of furniture to be sent to an Anderson buyer. Mr. K., had had two funerals to attend tho day before, which necessitated Frank Th.-mas, doiig his maiden effort, in that liue, which he had done to the Satisfaction of all parties.

CL E. Franklins Drug store, bore numerous evidence-* «*f he experience, and knowledge of the proprietor. Mr. F. understands his nujdnes* i»» every detail and I predict a successful trade for him.

Jackson & Jackson were hustling the Restaurant business. The fruit tree rei reseutatives of Greenfield, Wm. Robb, Thou. Wilson and F. V. Felt were each making great reeords among the Madison county people, as salesmen, and also plaved a good hand at. the lunch counters of the above firm.

See the boot and shoe ad of Rogers & Thomas in this issue. They are offering some of the rarest barguins ever given to the public. They are gentlemen of excellmt qualifications and know just how to treat a customer to win his good will.

Dr. Cook is a genial whole-souled gentleman and oue of the leading physicians of his vicinltv. He is like unto his brother, Att'y W. W. Cook of this city.

M. Joruon leads in the hardware business. His store contains a lull aud comprehensive line of all kinds of hardware, tools etc. He sells goods all over Northern Hancock, Co.

We have occasion to be truly thankful to Pendleton Merchants for their .liberal oatrouage accorded us in the past aud they will find in us a true and lasting friendship that shall not fade away.

St. MicbolM For louns t'ulk«. John G. Whittier long ago wrote of St. Nicholas. "It is little to say of this magazine that it is the best children's periodical in the world." Edward Egglestwn, .the author of "The Hoosier Schoolmaster," says 'ot it, "There is not one of the numbers that does not stir the curiosity, inform the memory, stimulate thought, and enlarge the range of imagination." Founded iu 1873, and from the fir-t number edited by Mary Maples Dodge, St. Nicholas is now entering upon its twentieth year. Tne roost famous writers have contributed to its pages iu the past, but never hits the editor been able to oifer a better program or a more distinguished list of contributors than iu 1893.

There is to be a series of illustrated papers on "The Leading Cities of the United States,"—the story of each city told by a prominent resident. PJdaiund Clarence Stedman will write of New York Thomas W. Higginson, of Boston New Orleans will be described by Geo. W. Cable, and Baltimore by President Gilman, of John Hopkins University. Dr. Lyman Abbott will tell the story of Brooklyn, and other cities will be treated by other famous men. There will be articles on the.)Vorld's Fair, and a number of pages of funny pictures and humorous verses.

Mrs. Kate Douglas Wiggins, the well k'lown author of "The Birds' Christmas Carol," etc., will contribute the leading serials for St. Nicholas during the coming year. The November number opens with three page poem by John G. Whittier, which has in it some of the most beautiful lines the good Quaker poet has ever written, describing the visit of a party ot' young girls to bis home.

Tne School Jourual says, "Place St. Nicholas In your household, and you need have no fears for the lessous taught your children." The magazine is the greatest aid' that the teacher and the conscientious parent can possibly have. It entertains, and at the same time educates aud instructs The subscription price is $3 a year.
