School House Dedicated. Last Friday occurred the dedication of the new Robert's school house southeast of our city. The building has been erected at a cost of S1,1S5.00 and is a model of neatness and stability, being equipped with modern improvements. The dedicatory exercises were attended by S. S. Fish, superintendent of schools and Trustee W. F. Young, of this city. The surrounding neighborhood turned out enmasse to help in these successful exercise, which we are informed were very elaborate. The school will start with a large membership, and a successful future is predicted for the Robert's school. Fire at the L. E. & W. Depot. At 1 ;30 p. m. Thursday an alarm called

the members of the lire dept. to the L. K. Je W. II. Ii. where ablaze had started in the r of of the hand car house opposite the passenger station. As usual the work of the lire department was prompt and ellicient and a well directed stream of water soon extinguished the flames. It is supposed the tire was caused by a spark from a passing engine. After pouring a few hundred gallons of tan colored water on the build, ing the members of the department returned, with the laurels of another victory as an added proof of their efficiency. The damage is confined to a few burned shingles, a grindstone which was about the only thing inside the building being rescued uninjured.

protect the people, not only with good clean streets and sidewalks and light, pure water, but public prosperity demands also that they should protect every public-spirited attempt of private citizens to beautify and improve their own property. At all events, those who do not desire to build and paint and set out trees and improve their own premises, should be refrained by law from marring the beauty and destroying the value of his more public-spirited neighbors' property, by the unsightly and filthy condition of his own premises.

The initial performance of the stirring romantic war drama, "Marching Thro (leorgia" at the opera house last evening, was a very creditable amateur production, and the membeis of Company !., deserve great credit for their carefid and concientious work. The various roles were admirably sustained throughout the piece, and the members of the cast show in many instances traces of undoubted histrionic genius. The costuming and staging is exceptionally gouand very appropriate and the musical numbers were well received by a large audience.

Taking all in all, "Marching Thro' (Jeorgia" is one of the best amateur productions we have ever had the opportunity to witness. It will be repeated with the full cast to-night and Saturday night, and those who did not attend last evening should not fail to see this patriotic melo-draina. Turn out and give the boys of Co.

With the 4;:h Ohio he was attached to hei man's army, and at the close of the war wrote Shermans March through (leorgia", from personal remineseences gathered during his four years of active service. This play he has produced in all parts of the country for the past ten years and the success which has everywhere attended its production is evidence of its literary and historic merit. There are many veterans who served in the 4th Ohio in Marshall county. Corporal Cleinson is also a member of McFherson Post (J. A: R.No. 7, Department of Indiana. Cleanliness and Enterprise. There is no good reason why every city should not pass stringent ordinances to make the city not only cleanly and healthful, but also comely and beautiful. There is no good reason, why a public feeling of pride and safety should not be engendered to such a degree as to stimulate the enforcement of such laws in every city. It would only manifest an earnest purpose to make the city attractive. AVhen such a public spirit prevails, everything progresses. Men are encouraged to build prettydwellingsandto improve all their property in harmony with the general interest. All feel sure that if they attempt to make valuable improvements to the city, that there is no danger of their neighbor, who perhapshasnot the artistic taste and wealth with which they have been favored, will be permitted to destroy the value of his improvements by filthy, hideousness and uncongenial surroundings.
