TO NIAGARA FALLS AND RETURN. Being weary of the turmoil and bustle of business in the thriving town of Walkerton and believing that an “outing” of a few days would bo beneficial to our health, Thursday morning, Aug, G, found us at the L. E, & W. depot ready to take (lie excursion train for the world-renowned resort, Niagara Falls.” j Our party consisted of Mrs. H. A. Casw’ell, Dan Brubaker and wife, Del lludelmyer and wife, Ed Henderson and wife, John Morgan and your humble servant. The excursion was arranged by the L. E. & W. and Nickle Plate railroads jointly; passing over the former to Fostoria, Ohio, thence over the latter to Buffalo and over the New York Central to the falls. Reaching Tipton? Ind., at which point we strike the main line of the L. E. & W. we find that bur train is the seventh section of the grand excursion which consists of a total of seventy-five coaches (75.) all too well filled for comfort. On we speed, passing through a magnificent stretch of farming lands laying between Tipton and Muncie. Muncie is probably rhe most prosperous city in the gas belt having more than doubled her population in the past four years. Here is situated a number of glass factories and the plant of the Indiana Bridge Co. which has built the three iron bridges recently erected near Walkerton. At Celina, 0., we pass along the north shore of the “reservoir,” an artificial lake formed by damming the water and is used to feed a canal. The water conies 17,500 acres and we were informed was a groat resort for fisher man being well stocked with fish. A few miles west of Lima, 0., we strike the Ohio oil field and you will see hundreds of large tanks., standing in the fields and woods to receive the crude oil as it is pumped from the numerous oil wells. The next place of note is Findlay, 0., where natural gas was first struck in the Ohio and Indiana field . At Fostoria we are transferred to the Nickle, Plato. It being 9p. m., we arranged as best we could for the night. It being impossible to get a berth in a sleeper, we had to do the next best thing, viz , slay awake. This applied to all except Ed Henderson who slept soundly all night. We reach Buffalo, N. Y., about 10 a. m. Friday morning and after a short stop we stait for the falls which lay down the Niagara River about 18 miles north of Buffalo. The river is a beautiful stream ranging in width from one to three miles. The banks are very’ low’ until you get near the falls when they become more rugged. Reaching Niagara Falls at 12 in. we decide not to visit the cataract at present and »t.v first train for Lewiston "hich is situa ted down the river five miles on the N. Y. side. The scenery along this route certainly cannot be surpassed anywhere in the world except by the cataract proper. The track winds along (ho edge of the high bank and in many places you seem to be suspended in the air while two hundred feet beneath yon rushes the wild torrent, of waters a hundred feet deep. At Lewiston we take the boat for Niagara on-the-Lake, which is located on Lake Ontario at the month of the river. The river from Lewiston to the lake is smooth and beautiful ami we had a most delightful sail. To our left situated upon a very high bluff we pass General Brock’s monument. He was a British general killed in the war of 1812. Fort Niagara is situated on the extreme point of land on the N. Y. side and its massive walls would seem impregnable. Tradition says that from a cell in this fort John Brown of Masonic fame went to his doom. But I think it all a tradition unfounded. We now board steamer Chicora for a sail across Lake Ontario to Toronto, Canada, which city we reach at 1.30 p. m. Toronto is a beautiful city situated upon a fine harbor, contains 200,000 inhabitants and is noted for its numerous and magnjficent churches and charitable buildings, chief among which might IW UrtBKIMJW!! I!nevlnm which is probably uui smpussca m au»v.K... D( -iring to visit St. Catharine’s, Ontario, I leave the party in Toronto and at 2 p. m., Saturday’ take the steamer for that famous old city. It is situated upon the Welland canal 35 miles south of Toronto. This canal is cut from Lake Erie to Lake Ontario thus securing a continuous navigable water way from Chicago to the Atlantic. At St. Augustine I take the train, arriving at the falls at Bp. m. Saturday. After a good night’s rest I am up at five Sunday morning to view the beauties of this noted spot. The meaning of “magnificently grand” must be enlarged to express the grandeur of the scene. When it comes to describing the Falls of Niagara lam “not in it.” They must be viewed to have any idea of their beauty. Just imagine 10901891 gallons of water (I have figured this correctly) falling 200 feet every minute, and you may have some idea of the cataract. Taking the train 7.30 a. m., I am soon in Buffalo which is a very nice city. Pass through Erie, Pa., and Ashtabula, 0., where a few years ago P, P. Bliss and

wife were killed iii that fearful wreck on the L. S. &M. 8. railroad- Having secured a stop over for Cleveland, 0., I leave the train at Lake View, an eastern suburb, and visit the tomb of Garfield. This visit alone is worth the cost of the entire trip. Situated upon the highest point in Lake View cemetery and being more than f® e t high one has a grand view of the city and lake. The grounds and monument are surely as near perfection as nature and art can make them, and I felt to express the sentiment, ‘‘Surely the honor to the memory of Garfield lias reached the climax of earthly honor after death as well as during life.” The monument cost $200,000. Cleveland has a number of very long and high viaducts which are very fine and the renowned Euclid avenue is no doubt the finest residence street in rimerica. It is fourteen miles long and foi a good share of that distance the lawns are as nicely kept as any part of Lincoln park, Chicago^ Expect to stop at three or four mire eities en route home wtrtrm i reach by Thursday, the 13th inst. * Yours, etc., D. W. Place. GROVERTOWN. Dennis Rust, of lio,den, Missouri, visited with bis brol.ier barren a portion of this week. 1 hoy had not seen each other for nearly thirty years. Considerable sickness still prevails in this vicinity. William Wheeler, of Los Angelos, California, \i. ited with his brother John about a week, returning last Monday. It was the first time they had met in twenty years. A. J. Lncapher bad the misfortune to have two valuable coils killed last Monday night. They broke out and got on the railroad track and a fast line struck thorn. He also lost One week before last, by it running into a wire fence, and cutting its throat. In the evening of August 4th quite a number of the young friends of Miss Anna A eager called on her to remind her that it was her seventeenth birthday. All spent an enjoyable evening. Also on the following Friday evening about sixty of the triends of Mrs. 8. M. Barrett surprise i her by coming in and telling her it was her forty-first birthday, ice cream and cake was served. A general good time was bad by all, and they went home well pleased.

A few more touches of the painter's brush and it will be ready for occupancy. Noah Crowl is sufieiing from an abscess in bis right Land, winch gives him a great deal of pain; nevertheless, the arrival of a line boy at bis home Sunday evening has mitigated Lis suffering and wreathed his face in smiles. Bicycles and tricycles bare taken the town by storm. dhe boys who have wheels are happy, and those who have them not get as much enjoyment as possible by looking on. Lee Gill and wife of Lakeville spent Sunday with friends in this village. While hitching up his horse, preparatory to starting home, his little son climbed it.to the buggy and, the horse becoming friehteiu d, ran away. The buggy was overturned and badly broken b t fortunately the child escaped with o iy a few slight bruises. James Bender and wife, of Shipsht - wana, are visiting friends in this village. V> illis Bender has been laid up for nearly a week, the result of a fall from an apple tree. No bones broken but bruises numerous. C. F. Keck is minus a watch.

Ladies afternoon and evening— gentlemen, evening only. Daniel 11. McKenzie, one of Liberty township’s oldest citizens, passed from this life Saturday morning, August Bth, after a brief sickness. Mr. McKenzie was born at Caladona, New York, Jan. 28, 18k and located in LaPorte county fifty yeas ago. In 1846 he was married to Miss Adeline Travis who survives him. There are three children—Curtis D. McKenzie, of LaPorte county, Mrs. U. S. Bulla, of Liberty township, and Mrs. Geo. B, I'loud, of North Liberty. Mr. McKenzie had always been honorable and true to tli;• right in all his busine^. transactions, and a friend to deserving- poor. He despised a mean action in anybody and was an exemplary husband and father, ready at any time to do all in his lower to advance the interest and happl l ^ of his family.

Rev. Walter Scott. St. Paul’s, LaPorte assisted by hi a choir. The large concoarse of people could not be seated in the church here. Many being unable to gain admittance, a part of whom repaired to the Cemetery for the last and closing sei \i<n, Mr. McKenzie expressed himsell as having no fears of death and gave foil directions as to his business affrirs, hid a last farewell to those of his family who were present and passed peacefully away.
