The State Convention of the Ohio Christian Temperance Union met in annual session at the Academy of Mil sic, this city, on Thursday and Friday or last week, vice uresiuent ciarK-son, of Dayton, presided, and upwards of 150 delegates were in attendance. After the usual speeches of welcome and the appointment of committees, the Assistant Secretary, A.

JvRyder, oi' Navarre, submitted his annual report, from whicli the following extracts are taken FRIDAY MORNING SESSION. Major Frank Baird, President of the State Union, reported that he had vis ited during tne year 53 counties ot tne State, including the principal cities, Cleveland, Columbus, Cincinnati, Dayton, etc. He had visited 103 places where the work had been inaugurated. Out of the 1(')3 unions, 152 were in active operation. He had succeeded in reorganizing most of the 11 discontinued ones and had organized 27 new unions.

He bad delivered ioo lectures, irom wnicn he had received as voluntary contribu tions, expenditures, $552. He had devoted nine months or tne year to constant, earnest devotion to the work had made no assessments, but depended upon voluntary contribu tions, lie naa sent out circulars to ministers throughout the State for a collection but had received no answer. He had no fault to find whatever, for the Christian ministers and people were always the best supporters of the movement. The outlook was most encouraging throughout the State. He deprecated the eucouragment of per- patetic temperance lecturers who nave not the good of the work at heart, and advised that only those who had proper credentials should be encouraged.

The report was adopted and ordered spread on the minutes. General Ed. S. Mever. Chairman of the Committee on Resolutions, made his report, prefacing it with the statement that the temperance work of the Christian Temperance Union in this State had been shamefully misused by bad and unprincipled men, against the churches.

He wantedto raise the Union so high that the churches of the State will iiock to its support. The re port was as lollows, applause twice interrupting the reading: "Whereas. The cause of temperance and total abstinence is the cause of God and humanity holiest interests of the State and society demand the utmost exertion of all men everywhere to put down and suppress a traffic, which undermines tffe State, society, and all the sacred relations of the family, and spreads penury, want, idiocy and crime over the land, Resolved. 1, That we express our gratitude to Almighty (iod for the ad vancement oi temperance uunng tne past year. 2.

That the cause ot temperance is preeminently Christian and patriotic and demands now more than ever in the past, the heartfelt sympathy and united labor of all Christian and patri otic people. 3. That as tins movem ent em oraces persons of all religious creed and political faith, we deem it inexpedient to affiliate, as an organization, with any sect or party as against another but bv according to eacn individual mem ber the right to, and urging as a moral and natriotic duty, an honorable in dependence in religious and political action, to leaven both religion and patriotism with a healthy, vigorous temperance spirit. 4. That as tne laws or tne otate are the safeguards by which the citizens seek to preserve their -interests, we commend: That every law regulating the sale of intoxicants now in the statute-books be rigidly enforced "That we believe in the wisdom and necessity of total legal prohibition of the liquor traffic.

"That it is our firm intention to sup port all measures that are practicable and just to obtain such prohibition. That as the attaining oi pronibition by a separate party seems impracticable for many years to come, we deem it our duty to support the measures now being taken by earnest Christian men to obtain such local prohibition as will, if adopted, at once prohibit the traffic in more than half the counties in the State. "That through the operation of a sound local option law public sentiment would be so aroused as to the advantages resulting from prohibition, in decreasing crime, pauperism, taxation, and all other evils resulting from the use ot intoxicating liquors intiiose counties adopting such law, that pro hibition would be finally adopted the State in many years less than it would take to build up a distinct party to accomplish the same end. That is order to attain tne eno pro posed, we urge attendance at primary meetings and Conventions, and such exercise of the franchise as will secure the election to the Legislature of such men as will vote for the passage of a sound local option law." General Meyer also, irom the com- mittee.reported several amendments to the Constitution which were adopted. They add to the officers a Corresponding Secretary constitute an Executive Board of the officers, any five of whom shall be a quorum; provide that the President ot the state union, snail preside at the annual convention and add to Article 0, defining, the duties of President and Secretary in commissioning workers throughout the State, the provision that all commissions issued prior to May 1, 1879, shall ex pire upon the 1st day or Juiy, 1S79.

and all commissions issued by said authority shall expire on the 1st day of July succeeding their issue and tor each renewal or con tinuance the sum of $1 shall be paid, which shall be applied to the payment of expenses of the State Union.

ifcThe track is now being nut in order for these events, and everything promises to be a great success. A Mystery Explained. Parlor scene: Mrs. Brown, who has spent the Summer among the White Mountains in search or health, and who seems to have searched the whole mountain side without being able to find a pair of blooming cheeks or an inch of healthful skin Mrs. White, who has remained at home because her husband could not afford to go, but whose fresh complexion and bright eyes seem to have caught their bloom and brightness from niountaon breezes.

Mrs. B. Dear me, Mrs. White, how well vou are lookincr! If von will nut. think me impertinent, let iHe ask how you can keep so healthy in in this dreadful city? I have been to the lute Mountains, go there every Sum mer, in fact, and I can't keep off the doctor's list at that.

Mrs. W. (smiling). I'll tell you the whole secret, Mrs. Brown.

You remember how poorly 1 was last Spring, some days even being confined to my bed. ur. told Mr. mte to send me to the mountains, but I know he couldn't af ford it, and I tried Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, its effects were so marvelous that I also tried his Golden Med ical Discovery, to cleanse my system.

In my opinion one bottle of the Pre scription and the Discovery is better than six weeks of the White Mountains for a sick" woman. 1 have only been out of the city a week during the whole Summer; then my husband and I went to Buffalo and stopped at Dr. Pierce's invalids' and Tourists' Hotel. The baths and mechanical apparatus for treating patients were alone worth going to see. Besides, our accommodations were better than we had at Long Branch last year, and the drives and scenery are superb.

Let me advise you to use Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescip-tion, and try the Invalids' and Tourists' Hotel next Summer instead ot the White Mountains. Chew Jackson's best swee navy to-14 baooo. BIAItllXEl. MEDSKER-BARKKR.

To give a concise and comprehensive definition of the teaciier's work was the task imposed upon city teachers at their meeting Saturday, the diversity of views which the exercise elicited giving rise to a very interesting interchange of views upon the subject in hand. As usual, the Aryus tries to wiggle out of one falsehood by telling another.

II. Holcomb lias lost sixty-six of his seventy swarms of bees, and we hear of many others whose bees have died without apparent cause. It appears to be from no lack of food, as Mr. Holcomb found the hives well stocked with noney, and he is at a loss to account for the mortality. The match game of base ball on the Buchtel College grounds, Saturday afternoon, between the Reserves, of Hudson, and the College nine of this city, resulted most disastrously for the latter, as might have been inferred irom the score at the end of the first two innings, announced in Saturday's Second Edition.

There was nothing remarkable about the playing throughout the game, except a general lack of effective fielding, particularly on the part of the home nine. The score at the end of the iiineiunings stood 30 to 7 in favor of the visitors. AMONG THE CHURCHES. May 15, Rev. E.

At tkeir meeting last evening the City Guards decided upon an elegant new umlorm ot the same pattern- as that of the 4th New York and the 6th Massachusetts. The cost will be about 81,200, and the uniforms will probably be ready by tne 4tu oi uiy. On Memorial Day the Battery boys will have a target practice and field drill in the morning and a practice and parade in the afternoon.

Their new funs were expected from Toledo to-ay. They expect to have their new uniforms, costing $1,000, by July 4. The regimental target match of the 8th Regiment O. N. to be held at Chippewa Lake on the 15th will probably be the most interesting rifle match ever held in this part of the country, as it is expected that it will be largely attended and a des perate effort be made by each of the ten teams to be victorious.

The Akron boys will work hard to retain their laurels won at former matcnes. F. E. Lyon, D. D.

T. E. Mouroe, Tuesday evening. Mr. J.

H. Seymour, of Hudson, pre sented a report of the Sunday School work within the bounds ot conterence, from which it appeared that the total enrollment of Congregational Sunday School scholars within that territory is upwards of 2,500. In Air. Seymour report the amount stated as expended in missionary work by the Sunday Schools above referred to, was about $180 for the year just passed. Inquiry developed the fact that that amount did not include the sum of more than S150 given in the time named by the Congregational Sunday School of Akron.

Mr. Seymour stated that the report re ceived by nim from that Sunday School did not show any sum whatever as expended in missionary work. Mr. Eouis 11. Ashmun, ot aumadge, was re-elected Treasurer and Registrar for the coming year.

I he. next meeting will be held at Twinsburg, this county, September next, tne exact date to be announced hereafter.

A Favorable Report. In the City Council last evening, udge Marvin, from the special com- mistee on the improvement of East Market street, presented a written re port, recommending that steps betaken immediately looking to the improvement of that street between High and Water streets, by stone paving. Esti mates of the cost of the improvement had been made as follows: Medina stone, including curbing and gutter, S5.80 per lineal toot arren stone, $4.90 Peninsula stone, $4. The com mittee recommended that the expense be borne in the following manner: 25 per cent, by abutting property owners, the remainder by the city except so much as the County Commissioners shall see fit to tax to the County at irere. An exception to this rule was made by the committee in the case of residents on East Market street be- ween the eastern terminus ot the Nicholson and Water street, whom they would have pay $1 per foot front on either side.

On the matter of the distribution ot the expense, Dr. Underwood thought. in view ot a couterence witn tne County Commissioners, that they might be depended upon tor one-iourtn of the amount though no positive ex pression! nau oeen given.

Henry S. Babbitt. To the Editor of The Beacon Bath, Summit May 5. The suc cess of the Republican party seems to be assured, and can only be placed in jeop ardy by a failure to nominate worthy and true men for its State ticket this Fall. The Republican party has now a splendid opportunity to show its fideli ty to tne principles or civil service reform.

By placing Henry S. Babbitt in nomination for Auditor of State the Republican party will show its appre ciation of a faithful performance of duties. I have known Mr. Babbitt as Chief Clerk of the Auditor's office for four sessions of the Legislature, and I speak but the general opinion of the General Assembly when I say that the prompt and very satisractory manner with which every call upon that office by the General Assembly has been met, has been largely due to the faith ful and untiling efforts of its Chief Clerk, Henry S. Babbitt.

Outside of his official duties, as a citizen, in the relations of the family, and in the community as a true Christian gentleman, 1 can" assure my fellow citizens that Mr. Babbitt is a man well worthy of their heartv support.

Cook was a Director of C. Aultman and Assistant Superintendent of the Canton Works, Director of Ault man. Miller and Akron iron Co. of this city, and Director and officer of various other corporations. Having been one of Canton representatives on the Valley Road Board from the tirst and until the election or April la.

A quiet, geniai, jiiiiu-iicaitcu, modest man, careful and pru dent in all his dealings, Mr. Cook will be widely mourned, and his death will be particularly felt by the Baptist Church of Canton, to Which he was a liberal giver, having largely aided in the erection of their new house. He leaves a wife and live children. Although his health has been failing for a year, his final sickness began but a few days ago, and his fam- ly even now nave nau out nine lear is to the result. From Tuesday's Daily Beacon.

A Canton special to the Cincinnati Gazette says the community "was shocked by the death of Mr- George Cook, a wealthy philanthropist of this city. Mr. Cook has done many good deeds that will cause his memory to be cherished. He was reported to be worth $750,000, of which 400,000 was in C. Aultman which vast wealth he was able to pursue the bent of a generous nature." It was due to his funeral Monday afternoon was one of the most largely attended ever seen in the city.

All the manufacturing establishments, stores, banks and offices were closed, says the Leader's Canton special, everybody turning out to honor the remains of one of the purest and noblest men God ever made. Canton Repository, May 3. For two weeks past, Mr. George Cook has been lying in a precarious condition, at his residence, corner of Market and South streets, and" at precisely quarter past 12 o'clock to-day his spirit left its mortal frame and winged its way to an everlasting eternity in a better, brighter world beyond. Mr.

Cook's age was 52 years, and he was a native of Lake township, where, near- 33 years ago, he was a carpen ter and conducted a small shop in Greentown. About the year iiS4i), in company witli Mr. Cornelius Aultman, Jacob Miller, Lewis Miller, the late Colonel Ephraim Ball, and others, he came to Canton, and together they established on a small scale, the reaper and mower works which originally stood where the extensive shops of C.

Levies for tiie Coming Year. The Township Trustees met in regu- ar session at tne ornce or cierK Moersch, last Saturday, the principal object of the meeting being instruction to the Road Supervisors as to their work during the coining season.

1 he time tor summoning all persons subject to call for work on the road was limited to one day, wiiereas nve ivs, at 2 per day, have heretofore been occupied by the Supervisors ithering together their working orces. Bv the law enacted by the present Legislature a tax of but one mill can be levied for road purposes by town ship trustees. As is well-knowrt, the roads ot I'ortage xownsnip are tne highways to Akron from all parts of the county and are consequently sub ject to greater wear and tear than in any other township. A levy of five mills was therefore thought none too large md. a petition was accordingly sent to Columbus to Messrs.

Beebe and Mack, asking special legislation fortius township. A reply came Saturday that tins could not De clone, and a levy or one mill was consequently made. For culverts one-tenth of a mill was fixed is the lew. For the township fund $1575 is to be raised and for the poor und 4330. ClIAMBERLlN CLEARED.

As might have been prophesied from the manner in which the State was "given away by its most important witness, tne cnambenin trial came to an abrupt termination, yesterday afternoon about five o'clock, resulting in the dischai ge of the defendant. May Snyder, who had made such a positive statement to Marshal Ragg concern ing her visit to Dr. Chamberlins office with Maud Brooks, turned completely around, on the stand, and was as ignorant on tne subject as a Hottentot. WThen her recollection was refreshed as to her conversation with Marshal Ragg, she admitted it, but stated that she was not under oath then. After the defense had put Dr.

Chamberlin on the Stand to deny any operation for abortion, brief argument was made on botn sides, tne jviayor toi-lowing up in a few the discharge of the defendant and de claring the case at an end.
