LOCATE OLD ERRORS That Caused Confusion the Auditor's Office. in Efforts to correct a series of errors made by county auditors who held office from 1880 to 1890 were completed today with the final action of the present board of county commissioners, who at their meeting this afternoon ordered $641.59 transferred from the general fund to the congressional principal. Demas S. Coe, former county .auditor, discovered that errors had been made in the congressional school fund last September and he immediately started an investigation to learn the source of the trouble. The investiga tion was continued into the term of the present auditor, Lewis Bowman, who with the assistance of Mr. Coe, learned that the errors were made between 1880 and 1890. ! They communicated with the state auditors and state board of accounts and have at last straightened out the errors. . , , The county commissioners today decided upon a definite location for the Fox' bridge in Jefferson township and work on the new bridge will start within the near future. The commissioners also decided to order an appropriation of $250 to pay Wayne county's part of the expense on the construction of a bridge on ; the old Richmond and Eaton Pike. ! The Preble County (O.) commissioners will pay one-half of the cost of the brodge.

The trustees for the coming year are Charles Kruvel, Fred Schnelle, Frank ; Kehlenbrlnk, Adam Does and John , Kemper. SHE QUIT COFFEE And Much Good Came From It. It Is hard to believe that coffee will . put a person in such a condition as it I did a woman of Apple Creek, Ohio. She tells her own story. "I did not beliece coffee caused my trouble, and frequently said I liked it so well I would not quit drinking it, even if it took my life, but I was a miserable sufferer from heart trouble andnervous prostration for four years. "I was scarcely able to be around at all. Had no energy and did not care for anything. Was emaciated and had a constant pain around my heart until I thought I could not endure it. I felt as though I was liable to die any time. "Frequently I had nervous chills and the least excitement would drive sleep away, and any little noise would upset me terribly. I was gradually getting .worse until finally, one day, it came over me and I asked .myself what Is the use of being sick all the time and buying medicine so that I could indulge myself in coffee? "So I thought I would see if I could quit drinking coffee, and got some Postum to help me quit. I made it strictly according to directions and I want to tell you that change was the greatest Btep in my life. It was easy to quit coffee because I had the Postum which I like better than I had liked the old coffee. One by one the old troubles left, until now I am in splendid health, nerves steady, heart all right aad the pain all gone. Never have any more nervous chills, don't take any medicine, - cad do- all ray housework, and have done a great deal besides. "My sister-in-law, who visited me this summer, had been an invalid for some time, much as I was. I got her to quit coffee, and drink Postum. She gained five pounds in three weeks, and I never saw such a change in anyone's health." i "There's a Reason." . Ever read the above letter? A new one appears from time to time. They are genuine, true, and full of human Interest.

Some forty years ago at Aldershot the camp was commanded by Sir James Torke Scarlett, a Crimean veteran. On the occasion in question he was directing some sham fighting. In a manner then usual he was leading a line of skirmishers of one force against another many yards in front, as in earlier times he had led the heavy brigade at Balaclava against three times Its numbers. To a soldier of the younger school it seemed a preposterous proceeding, and Sir Evelyn ventured to criticise it. Sir James replied: "Young man, have I not ordered you twice to hold your tongue? If I like to lead my skirmishers, what the U that to your Sir Evelyn replied, "Ten thousand pardons, sir, but it is the enemy's line In retreat you have been leading for the last ten minutes." He was shortsighted and did not wear glasses, so was unable to see the distinguishing mark, a sprig of heather worn in the shakos of the troops he was attacking. Westminster Gazette.

ARBOR DAY IS TO BE OBSERVED HERE

Plan3 for the observance of Arbor Day are being discussed by many since the governor Issued his proclamation setting aside April 28 and October 29 aa the dates for thia year and he asks that every school child in the state plant a tree on these dates. The local school children will do their part In carrying out Governor Marshall's proclamation, as the school board at the suggesUon of Prof. John F. Thompson, head of the botanical department of the high school has ord- ! ered 2,500 small elms. The students in the various schools, both public and parochial, will be asked to plant the trees on their lawns. As a rule Arbor Day has been generally observed in this city and the practice has done a great deal towards beautifying Richmond. Many school and church yards were formerly perfectly bare of shade, but during the past few years trees have been planted about every school and church yard and many beautiful groves are coming up on these places.
