THE SALE AT TNoRTHwooD.-Allt N the prop
erty at Northwood was sold on Thursday,
excepting the homestead, which, owing to
the lateness of the hour at which the
sale of the other portions of the
farm closed, was not offered. The land sold
at prices ranging from $240 to $40 per
acre. The bottom lands which are valued
only for agricultural purposes, sold at $3.50
per acre. There was not a very large at
tendance owing to the numerous celebra-
tions and attractions elsewhere, but most
of those present were there to buy, and
they manifested deep interest in the sale.
Mr.. Wilson, to carry out the entire pro-
gramme, and in compliance with the wish
es OF many who desire to invest, will offer
at public auction, the Northwood home
stead of twenty-five acres, with its fine
buildings, choice orchards and other COM
forts and conveniencies it would take life
time to, bring to it's present state of perfec-
tiOn, on Saturday, July 13, at o'clock p.
M. Now that all the lots of Northwood
have been sold to those who design making
the investment permanent one, and
through whose industry and public spirit
handsome villas will shortly spring up on
its beautiful hills and ravines, as if by may
ic, the gentleman of means and elegant
leisure, and cultivated taste, who may be-
come possessor of the homestead, will pos
sess a property unequalled for beauty in
Onio. The Improvement of this handsome
property will necessitate the extension of
the street railroad, and we may confidently
predict that, within the year the street cars
will run from the village of North Colum-
bus directly along this property to the ex-
tremest business portion OF the city, giving
its possessor the advantages of a country
home in easy reach of the busy marts of
trade and capital.

PcLICE CoURT.-The question for so long
a time popular in all the debating clubs ::
" "ResolUed, That the pleasures of anticipa-
tion exceed those of participation" after
yesterday mornings experience finds us
unanimously in the affirmative. We en-
dured the hot sun, dust and lager of the
fourth, in the sublime faith that all our
troubles would be compensated for at the
Mayors Office yesterday morning. When
we thought OF the glorious time we eexpected
to have in hearing the excuses made by
our friends of the benzine persuasion, we
smole happy smile, our hearts swelled in
our bosom, we took in our patriotic lager
and shot a firecracker with unexampled
bravery. But, alas for human expecta-
tions! AS the poet says, on entering the
temple of justice:
I'VE found the wooden benches bare,
And but one drinkest up before the Mayor"
LGlLG Rookh, Cdnto riS, uerse 1901.
We have put on a sackcoat in lieu of
sackcloth, and covered our head with dust
in place of ashes. There is woe in our
sanctum, and mourners go about the
streets. The Benzine Galoots have soured
on us, and our heart is broken.
James Harrison histed in too much dis
titled damnation, and was fined So for

This closed the summer meeting of the
Olentangy Park Association, the extreme
heat of the weather and the supineness of
those who should encourage the Associa-
tion, compelling an abandonment OF the
races set for yesterday. rr
In reviewing the time made over the
Olentangy track, we find that it does not
show as fast as either Cincinnati or Chilli
cOthe, and that 1869 in the last named
town is no faster than l:4S15 here. This
last, the officers of the Association inform
us, is the fastest time ever made on the
Olentangy Park track, and was made by
VIM. McDonald's chestnut horse Bastion.
To the officers of the Association we re-
turn our thanks for attentions. The Pres
ident, Col. Olmstead, is one of the fairest
men we ever saw on a race track, and has
the reputation of being the most impartial
judge and fairest starter in the State.
Mr.. Brooke, who had charge of the quar-
ter stretch, deserves the thanks of all lovers
of sport for his unremitting attention in

A NEW LAW OFFICE.-By reference to an
advertisement which we print elsewhere
in this paper, it will be seen that Amos
Layman, Esq, formerly Editor of The
STATESMAN, has opened Law Office in this
city and resumed the practice of his Profess
sion, which had been interrupted for several
years by his active connection with the
Press. His experience and qualifications
entitle him to a remunerative practice. His
natural endowments and intellectual at
tainments, superadded to great energy and
industry, cannot fail to insure him success
at the Bar. We take pleasure in commend
ing him to our people-especially to such
as may find it necessary to consult and en-
ploy Lawyer. He has excellent facilities
for collecting all sorts of claims against the
Government, which claimants will do well
to avail themselves of.
Mr.. Layman's office is at No. liz South
High street, in the Carpenter Block, direct
ly over Thrall q Roby's Drug Store, a few
doors North of the Goodale House. Give
him call.
