Beautiful day for business men and
candidates.
The second annual hop OF the IS.
x" Boat Club will take place Tuesday
evening, the 22d of February. 1t will be
a select and brilliant affair.
F. W. Robertson, City Tax Collector,
notifies delinquent tax payers in our ad-
vertisement columns that on and after
the 10Th Of February he will apply for
distress warrants authorizing him to
seize and sell suficieucv Of their prop.

The biography Of Titus Oats, the plot
finder, as published by M. Combs, jr., in
the morning papers--at twenty cents a
liue-is very graphic reading. Mr.
Combs deyotes half column to one Of
our local contemporaries, and then says:
His conduct has placed him beyond
the notice of gentlemen" How's that
for high? We will state in justice to
Mr. Combs. as we are concerned, that
according to his statement, no prosecutor
appeared against him to sustain the
charge of forgery, and he was discharged.
This is his usual luck, it seems.
One of our constant readers desires to
call the attention of the officers of the
Street railroad to the practice OF per-
hitting negro washerwomen to carry
their large heaped clothes baskets in the
cars. ut is no uncommon thing on Pop
lar street to see one Of these characters
occupying room enough for three per-
sons. Ladies do net like to sit where
their feet are crushed by baskets, even
If they endured the vicinity of its owner,
while other ladies and little white girls
stand up. Dogs are tabooed. Can you
not lend hand to put out the clothes

Ohio Legislature.

This body met at Columbus or
Monday. The Senate organized by
electing E. 7. Hall, Republican, Clerk
and i. p. Churchill, Democrat, Ser.
geant- The House partly or.
ganized by electing Al. Cunningham,
one of the Fusion members from Ham
ilton county, Speaker, and Amos Lay
man, Democrat, Clerk. Cunningham
received the entire Democratic vote,
and by voting for himself was elected.
The Republicans voted for Dennis, OF
Cleveland, fer Speaker.
The organization is the result of a
combination between the Democrats
and the Fusion Republicans of Hamil-
ton county. These Fusionists hold
the balance Of power, and, as was to
be expected from that class of men,
they worked the cards to their own
preferment.
