COURT OF COMMON PLEAs.-The court
yesterday proceeded to pass sentence upon
prisoners, as follows: Joseph Lansing,
convicted of horse stealing and grand lar
ceny, sentenced to 10 years hard labor in
the Ohio Penitentiary. William Manley,
convicted of burglary, was brought in.
When the court asked him if he had any
thing to say why sentence should not be
passed upon him, he said:
Your Honor:-This is conspiracy got up
to ruin me, and send me to the Penitenti-
AIRY. When 1 was in Cincinnati, worked
for -Shillito, in the; clothing business, and
was discharged because had been in the
Confederate army. When I came here I
was sent by a doctor whom l met to Mrs.
Shoemaker's to board. 1 knew nothing OF
the character of the house. Mrs. Shoe
makers daughter got mad at me, and swore
she would send me to the Penitentiary. i
would ask your honor to be as lenient with
me as possible. have no friends in this
part of the country. L have widowed
mother in Philade. phia, and this will break
her heart. Be as merciful to me as you can.
The Judge told him that he had invent
ed very plausible story, but that he was
satisfied that he had been a very bad boy;
that there were other burglaries laid to his
charge. You should have thought of your
mother before committing the crime. In
answer to a question of the Judge, Manley
stated he was 49, years old. The court SEN
fenced him to tive years at hard labor in
the penitentiary.
Thomas Hart was brought into court,
when his attorney, Judge Rankin, asked
for delay in the sentence until the
grounds for new trial could be shown to
the court. The court deferred the sentence
until Saturday morning.
The court then adjourned until 9 o'clock
on Wednesday morning.
A NEW AND VALUABLE INvENTIoN.-
We on yesterday saw in operation in the
kitchen of the Goodale House, one of the
neatest as well as completest labor saving
machines this age has produced. 1t is
called the American Dish Washer, and con-
sists OF rotary tub sort of an institution,
in which can be washed and dried about a
hundred plates or dozen milk pans, in ten
minutes. The dishes after going through
the washing process by this machine look
as shiny and glossy as when they first
came from the store. By its use, dish rags,
wiping cloths, parboiled hands and the rat
tie and clatter of the dishes is done
away with. A child ten years of age, by
its use, can in ten minutes do the work it
would take two girls. an hour to do. tits
indeed such an invention as we can advise
our lady readers to examine, satisfied that
they will endorse our high opinion of the
Dish. Washer. Col. C. j. Hedenberg, the
agent, is stopping at the Goodale House,
where he will be happy to show this in
vention to those interested. To hotels and
boarding houses it must recommend itself
| at once.
POLICE CoURT.-Two veteran galoots
bowed to his honor, the Mayor, yesterday
morning.
Sam Lorish was captured in state of ine-
briefly wonderful in any but those who tar
ry long with benzine. Sam said that "these
were distressful times; man has but few
privileges, and it was hard that man could
not drink as much as he pleased" The
Mayor told the unfortunate galoot of the
many who had been wrecked1by following
his course, and that subtle poison furked
in wine. "What if it does" replied the
unterrified Sam, "for
If wine be poison. so is tsa. r.
But in another shape; "a
What matter whether one be killed
By canister or grape"
die by, the Mayor thought it would, be a
good one to smash stone by,so he sentenc-
ed Sam to pay fine of $5, in laborious ex-
ercise at the city stone pile. Henry But
ties case was but repetition of Sans.
| He was as drunk as he could be. Drunk
as a Lord; drunk as two Lords ;'drunk as a
House of Lords. In default of $5 fine he
went to smashing stone with Sam.
