+ POLICE CoURr.-The deep and sombre
veil OF silence hanging so long over the
sacred precincts of the Mayors Court, was
on yesterday lifted, and five evil doers
ed majesty of the law. One was benzin-
ist, recruit for the glorious army of the
Galoots. The other four were arrested for
=offeases against decency. Great Caesar, but
we are glad that an item opens Tor us again
in the halls of Justice. We were about
sinking into chronic state of desp0nden-
cy, which might have resulted in despair
and death by suicide. Many a morning,
when told by the Mayor, "Nothing to-day,
Spivins," we have telt like shooting our
self in the abdomen with goldfish ball.
But perseverance. which the darkey defin-
ed as ''take hole, hole on, and nebber lef
co." will accomplish much, and has finally
given us police report.
William Jackson, is no relation of the
General, nor of his wife, of whom the poet
said:
"Old Mrs. jackson. I've been told.
Kicked off the kiver and the Gineral got cold"
Not any he stands before the world pure
and simple, William Jackson. William is
a hister. There's no doubt about that. He
takes his benzine with regularity rarely
attempted, not often equalled and never
excelled. His creed is: '-7
When lovely man doth take to toddy.
ESQ.,. kG1fnds too late that it will slay, s-f 20
w hat can the cusS do the body, .#
But try and drive the blues away?
The surest mode that he'd discover,
To make him jolly when he's blued,
islust to take his toddy over, 7 7
And this he follows to the letter. The
Mayor ''stewed" him to the tune of So and
C 'sts, and, as he was out of stamps, he la
boreth for the city at the raGe of 371s cents
per diem and board.
Susan Stump and Jennie Brombach are
young ladies of the fast pursuasion. For
being inmates of house of ill fame, they
were arrested and taken before the Mayor.
They plead guilty, and were fined $500
each and the costs. Susan afterwards re-
pented, withdrew her plea, and demanded
a jury trial. This was unwise, Susan.
Juries invariably fine S25 and three months
in the county Jail in such cases, or bind the
offender over to court.
Oh Thuthan Sthump, Oh Thuthan Sthump.
Why not control your fury?
Freedom and sthampth go at jump,
When you demand jury.
Ed. Roy and Sam. Akin were arrested as
visitors at the house of the gentle Sue
They were fined $5 and costs each. Sam
paid and was discharged. Ed. was COM
mitted in default.
THE SALE OF NoRTHwoOD.-Al1 of the
Northwood property except the homestead
and the twenty five acres attached thereto
having been sold on the 4th of July, Mr.
Wilson, the proprietor, as will be seen by
the advertisement elsewhere, will offer the
unsold portion at public auction, this after
noon at o'clock. 1t will be sold in one
lot, or, being susceptible of easy division
in two or more most eligible building sites
will be offered in such lots as bidders may
desire.
There is no handsomer property to IL
found anywhere than the unsold portion O.
Northwood. 1t seems as if the Grta
Creator, no niggard of his bounties at al J
time, had here poured out the very wealth
of nature. Here are the beautiful forest tree
in all their native majesty; here as rich
high, productive soil as can be found in th'
State; here the healthful and life giving
chalybeate waters gush from the earth
murmuring, over the pebbly bed of th'
creek, song of praise for being borI
amid so much grandeur, so much beauty.
Men of wealth, such an opportunity new
er before was offered you to obtain so de-
lightful spot for your family residence
where free from the cares, snares and vice
of the city, your children can be raised il
health and wisely. Men of moderate
means you are offered a garden spot
the like of which cannot be found il
Central Ohio. For years Northwood ha
been the pride and envy of the town, ant
there Is now an opportunity for those VIII
have SO often wished to enjoy the deliciou
fragrance of Its breezes, to buy buildin!
site on its hills. Do not neglect the oppor
tunity. 1t will never offer again. Go to
day and purchase residence in this lovel.
suburban spot. 1t is only one mile and
half from the city, in easy reach, and
when the street railroad is completed t.
North Columbus, it will bring the city t.
the doors of dwellers in Northwood.
Omnibuses will be in readiness at tn
corner of State and High streets at half pas
1 O'Clock this afternoon, to carry person
wishing to attend the sale to and from
Northwood free of charge.
BASE BALL-"Our National Came
now in the height OF its carnival. Bas
ball on the brain is disease which threat
ems to become epidemic; and so much is
feared in large cities that the first questio
propounded to applicants for situations i:
s.Are you base bawler?" If answered al
firmatively, nuff said. We are enthusias
tically in favor of exhilaration and exer
else, but there is such thing as runnin
fun into the ground; and whether ever
hour of each day is necessary for play an
practice, is absolutely conducive to healtl
and increases mental endowments, may :
mooted question. The thing is bein
played with such a rush that it may 500
play out. Now it is
"Base ball here, and base ball there,
In fact tits base ball every Shere."
We hear of new clubs being formed
different parts of the country, and of mate
games to come off. Being rather tat an
lazy for much of player, we are not IL
clined to be very enthusiastic as ballis
