You have turned a reje cted waif into a compani on animal , and she will bring you as much joy as you have . hav~ bro ught her by rescuing her. But before the honeymoon period is over, might I suggest that you look around the ~ouse to assess just what changes you will be making to accommodate this newest member of your family. Becaus.e kittens ar,e curious creature s, they are capable of jumping on high surfaces (one ~itten I had would perc h on the top of seveh-foot closet doG r) and squeezing into the small est of spaces. So to protect thi s killen , you will want to killen proof the hou se ·as soon as possible . LIVING ROOM ·watch that you don 't close the kitten between .the door and the storm door or shut her in a drawer. Make sure tliat al l heat· ing and air vents have covers. Take dangling wires from lanips, tel evisions, VCR 's, sie reos, and telephones well out of reac h. Put away knickknacks until the killen · has the coordination necessary ·to keep .from knocking them ove r. Check all th ose places where your vacuum cleaner will not go - but the kitten can - for objects such as rubber bands, loose ihread . and dental floss (which can do a lot of damage in the in testi nal tract ). Move house plant s, many of which are potsonous to experimenting · cats, out of reach; don 't forget hanging plants which make great (and dangerous) cat perches. KITCHEN & BATH Use childproof latches to keep small paws from prying open cabinets. Or simply box up all dangerous household items. KeeJY 'all medications·. cl~aners , laundry supplies, and chemicals · on htgh shelves, Keep trash cans covered or inside a latched cabinet. Check for and block any small spaces, nooks or holes inside cabinets or behind washer and dryer units. Always check the dryer before you turn it on. And remember to keep all food out of reach : the wrappers can do a lot of dam age , too . BEDROOM Never leave .an electric blanket unattended. Keep laundry and shoes behind closed doors. as buttons and drawstrings can cause niaj or problems. Watch for dang Iing cords from Venetian blinds and curtains. Keep medications, lotion anlso forth off accessible surfaces like the bedside table. Move electrical and phone wires out of reach of chewing. GARAGE Clean up all antifreeze fromthe floor and driveway, for one taste could be fatal to a kitten . Move all chemicals to high shelves or behmd secure doors.

Weaver's Marionette Showllme, complete with cloggin' bees, "celebrity personalities" and Rock 'n Roll storybook characters will perfonn several times daily at the Meigs County Fair, Aug. 16-12. Showtime will be sponsored by Rutland Bottle Gas for six shows each day of the fair, with three ·on the stage area, and three from the truck on the grounds. Debbie Watsoil, secretary of the Meigs County Fairboard, said that . several special events are being planned and asked businesses to consider sponsoring an event. She can be contacted at 985-4372. Of the Marionette Show~ ase. one of the favorite acts in the show, it was reported, is "Lil Red and The Big Bad Wolf." "Lil Red" has an important message· for the ch ildren when she tells them "I never go with strangers." Watson said that parents will not want their children to mi ss this important show. Max and Barbie Weaver from Chillicothe, fanned their puppet production company mne years ago and have since toured the country from' Vennont to Florida performing at approximately 20 eve~ts each year. The Weavers, with help· from artists in the field of puppetry, have created the fifty-plus marionet!es and puppets now perfonning in their show. Max manipulates the marionettes while Barbie handles the big-mouthed · puppets. Barbie also writes the scripts and does the choreography. "Captain Squid" is the ·comical puppet emcee of the. show. He will be taking "kids of all ages" on a sea cruise every day with lots of singing and dan~ing and audience participation. A popular segment of the show is when children exchange jokes and stores · with "Captain Squid." Each show is different because when you are working live with children you never know where the show will go so it can be a surprise to the Weaver 's as well as to the audience, said Weaver.

REED Sentinel N-s Staff Difficulties in providing water service in the Letart area and a possible solution to the ·problem were discussed · by Donald Poole of Tuppers Plains-Otester Water District when the Meigs County Commissioners met in regular session on Monday afternoon. · .. According to Poole, increased water use by flower growers in the Letart and East Letart areas has caused water pressure difficulties for an estimated 20 residential customers in the area of the district's Mile' Hill waler tank. Three years ago, the commissioners funded an improvement project in the area with Community Development Block Grant fonnula funds, but according to Poole, those improvements are no longer sufficient to address the ever-increasing water needs in tho area. Poole said that the water district plans to apply for further CDBG funds this year so that some two miles of eight-inch water line 1111d a new booster· pump can be installed in an attempt to increase water pressure to customers in the area. Installation of the new line and the booster station will cost an estimated $322,000, according to Poole. Poole said that the growers prefer TP-C as a water source because of their relatively-low ·rates, and noted Chat some water conserving steps have been t;tken by growers, including the use of drip irrigation systems. · In other business, the commissioners approved a three-year contract between the county and employees of the Meigs County will help residents Sheriff's Department. install septic tanks. · According to Janet According . to Howard, president of · Trussell, $260,000 the board, the contract will be !)lade available provides for three perto qualifying housecent salary increases holds in need of septic for ,the first year of the systems.

Pauken is at the forefront of an effort to put the property under the protection of the National Park Service. Later th1s week he w1ll get exactlv five minutes to try to persuade a group of senators that lhe battle fought there in ' 1794 has nahonal s1gmficance and the stJII-undJsturbed land ments national attention. Pauken hopes to show the Senate National Parks, Histone Preservation, and Recreation Subcommittee that the battle, wh1ch eventually led to statehood for Oh1o, had ram1ficat•ons far beyond that, since it was •mportant to opening what then was the front1er to further settlement "The battle was a b1g deal," he sa1d Monday from Maumee. "The battle bas1cally d~1ded what we were going to be, Americans or Canad1ans. "The Battle of Fallen Timbers was the b1g showdown." The proposal before Congress would create a Fallen Timbers National Historic Site on land bought with state and private money. At Fallen Timbers, Amencan forces led by Gen. "Mad" Anthony Wayne defeated a band of Amencan lndJan tribes in a fight that lasted less than two hours. Great Bntam, wh1ch had yet to rehnqUJsh 1ts claim of what then was called the Northwest Territory, failed to support the tribes with artillery - a decis1on widely believed to have led to the Bnhsh wllhdrawal '" 1796. Wayne's VICtory broke the spmt of Indian resistance. Within a year, he negotiated a treaty that opened about two-thirds of southern Ohio to settlers. Sen. Mike DeWine, R-Oh1o, sponsor of lhe legislation to connect the site to the Park Service, had nitroduced versions of the plan in two previous congresses. Both languished while Maumee and next-door Toledo squabbled over the property, wh1ch Toledo purchased m 1987 for development that never took place. The development issue has been resolved, Toledo IS wdhng to sell 1f Maumee ra1ses enough to meet the askmg pnce, and the National Park Service added its weight to the debate with a report declaring the battlefield's na&ional significance. Pauken's tes.timony on Thur.;day w1ll be an important step m the process, smce an authonzauon from both hoqses of Congress must be attamed before anything else happens. Pauken is eager to get on wuh it, to get the battlefield protected from future development schemes and to turn the land 1nto a nat1onal tounst deshnatJon. "We want to use the National Park Serv1ce arrowhead logo," he sa1d. "You can't calculate that in the value of advertising."

Ret ned Capt Larry Seaquist said at a ceremony Monday markmg the disaster's lOth anmver.;ary that the Navy, wh1ch initially blamed a dead sa1lor from Cleveland for the blast, misled fam1hes about the nature of 1ts mvestlgatlon.

" It would have been very mce 1f the leadership ofthe Navy would have been here to say something simple to you, like 'We apologize,"' Seaqu1st said in a speech at the Norfolk Naval Base ceremony, He was the Iowa's sk1pper a year before the explosion. Seaqu1st sa1d afterward that he's mystified the Navy would "continue to m1ss the opportumty to do the nght thmg for the fam1hes and the crew." , Norfolk Naval Base spokesman Cmdr. Mike Andrews sa1d, "What Capt Seaquist says 1s his opinion; that's his right " Andrews noted that Adm. Frank B.

Daily Sentinel . Gramm's bill angers community activists By Jack Anderson and Jan Moller Texas Sen Ph1l Gramm, R, has spent almost a quarter-century in elected off1ce and met w1th thousands ef mterest groups But he 's probably never had a mettmg hke the Impromptu one that convened at his nonhwest Washington home last Sunday evenmg. Thirteen busloads of people -- angry people -descended on Gramm 's tony abode armed w1th nOISe-makers, banner.; and an effigy labeled " Philly the K1d" The protester~_, numbermg about 300, were a ragtag assembly of~ 1ghborhood leaders from mner Cllles across the country In Washmgton for then 28th annual National People's Action assembly, they were dJsiJnctly displeased w1t~Gramm's recent efforts to gut the Community Remvestment Act -- a law that the activist group helped pass more than two decades ago. Gramm is the newly minted chairman of the Senate Banking Comm1ttee, a job he 1nhented when brusque New York Sen Alfonse D' Amato was defeated In last November's election. It hasn't taken him long to get on the wrong side of act1vists who want banks to lend more money m inner-city neighborhoods. Throughout the weekend conference, Gramm's name was bandied about hke an epithet. Nevcrt~el~ss, NPA officials say the impromptu v1sit to Gramm's home was just an effort to "open a d1alogue" w1th the twangy Texan. ' Alas, Gramm wasn't in the mood to talk. Though he was home, and undoubtedly heard the chants and rally calls (one protester with a bullhorn shouted into Gramm's home intercom system), Gramm didn't set foot outs1de until lhe group had been dispersed by local police, and he was left to rescue his trampled flower bed and to p1ck up the discarded leaflets lambasting his financial modermzation b1ll.

Now at its 50th anniversary, with thl: Cold War over and the alliance searching for a broader mi ssion, the s ~ccess of the military campaign asainst Yugoslavia could shape N;A.TO's future in the ,new century. " NATO won' t fall apart if this goes badly, but NATO's future and PQlitical supPQrt will be very signific~ ntly affected by .the outcome of the Kosovo crisis," says Charl es Kupchan of the Council _on Foreign Relations. . '. As its rpember and partner nations prepare to meet beginning Friday in Washington for a 50th anniversary s ummit, NATO is far different from the group founded in 1949-." - During.. NATO's fi rst 40 years, cO.ncem about an attack by .the Soviet Union was the all-consuming pre. Ot:c upation. The East-We st dividing line in Central Europe was the most M~igs heavily militarized area in the world . Now, although the idea of coll ective defense remains at NATO's core. the challenges are di fferent: cont ainin g the proliferation of weaPQns of mass destruction, panicularly in the Midd le East, as well as compati ng minority and ethnic connict, refu gee nows and systematic hum an ri ghts violatio ns, f1rst in Bosnia and now in Yugoslavia. In Bosnia, NATO firepower in 1995 helped prov ide the basis for a peace settl ement aft er a United Nations effon foundered badly. To meet the chailenges, NATO is taking steps to make its troops computer-literate and ensure that its arinies can communicate, use each other's equipment, quickly travel long distances and expedite de liv~ries of supplies. • A French-British initiative contemplates a go-it-al one Europe defense capability if the United States should decide that a given security problem does not warrant an Ameri can commitment. NATO also has been erasing the Eas t-West line that kept Europe divided for the past half century. At a ceremony last month, the Czech Republic, Hungary· and Poland, all fonner military allie$ of the Soviet Unio n, we re ad mitted to NATO, swelling its ranks·to 19 countries. To ease Russian concern about NATO expansion, Moscow and the all ies now communicate regularly under a procedure set up two years ago. In addition, NATO and 25 " partner" nati ons primarily in Central and Eas tern Europe and the former SovieJ Union have established a formal partnership' relationsh ip. NATO 9ffers mi litary-to- m,ilitary cooperation with partner countries and advice on.the proper role for the military in democ ratic soc ielies. Such ties are aimed at persuading the fo nner foes that NATO 's inten· ti ons are benign. But no ·amount of soothing reassurances have been able 10 assuage Russian anger civer the NATO air war again st Yugo'slavi a. Russia, with a sense of cultural kin ship with Serbs, sees the assault as unprovoked aggression in an internal con nict. Russia has not said whether . it will atlend the summ it. NATO likes to call itself the most successful defense alliance in history. But Secretary of State Madeleine Albright says past glory is not enough. At the summit, leaders will un veil a new plan that will " take into account the variety of future dangers the alliance may confront," she says. "they will commit NATO to developing military forces that can perform the full spectrum of alliance . ·, ' ' mi SS IOn S, Albright warns against the noti on that the defense of Europe should be left to Europeans. freeing the United States 10 concentrate on responsibilities else where. That, she says, " would create the fal se impression that America. does noi care about Europe and Eu rope the. world ." .does not care about . \ All 19 NATO countries agree that European security requires a NATO role in Europe beyond the alliance's immediate borders, officials say.

I The Titanic claimed I ,503 lives when it sank jn the Nonh Atlantic in II 1912, but abuut I ,700 lives were lost when the Sultana riverboat ex plod· •I ed and sank on April27, 1865. "The magnitude of the disaster has never received its proper place in history, mai nly because it occurred just after Mr. Lincoln's ass~sination and at the conclusion of the Civil War," Chris Heather said in an interview published Friday in The Cincinnati Enquirer. "The public was tired ' .ot bad news." · . · · The riverboat, which was constructed in Cincinnati, was overloaded' with former-prisoners of war when it left Memphis April 26, 1865, bound for Ci ncinnati . But early on April 27, the side-wheeler's leaky ()oilers exploded· in the darkness about I0 miles north-of Memphis, and the boat sank. The Sultana was carrying about 2,300 passengers, many of them weak · Union soldiers returning from prisoner-of-war camps in the South. Those who weren't killed leaped into the freezing river, but many were too weak ' . , 1o·swim , or couldn' t swim. " The SUltana cenainly deserves a marker," said Heather, 42, of Colerain Township. " It was the worst river disaster in American history, and the boat was built here in Cinci nnati. The factorysite is now a downtown ri verfront park, visited by thousands of people annually. Perfect place for · a marker." He has askedJhe Ohio Bicentennial·Commission in Columbus to erect a Sultana marker at Sawyer Point, ncar whJ:re the boat was built in I 862: concluded in recent County Court session ..

Ted Strickland, a rarity among Ohio Dernoaata because of his ability to win elections in a Republicanclcaning district, has decided to try to remain i' the House rather tluln make a risky run for Mike DeWine's Senate seat. . Strickland scheduled an afternoon announcement with Minority i.ellder Rlchard Gephardt, D-Mo. State party chief David Leland and Democrats on Capitol Hill said the Ohio congressman would be explaining his decision to be part of the party's effort to regain a majority of House seats in 2000. . Strickland him!elfwould not confirm his intention, saying "I want to.be fair to everybody" by announcing it at the news conference today. · For Leland, Strickland's choice eliminates the easiest option for fielding a challenger to first·lenn RepubliCan De Wine.

Leland said he's certain he'll be able to recruit a strong candidate to run against De Wine, while getting Strickland re-elected to the House. Strickland's decision, he said, "means that we have a good opportunity to niake sure that Dick Gcphardt is going to be the next speaker of the House.''
