POLICE CoURT.-We don't think Sat
urday's session Of the police court was
much Of one. One plain and one
complicated drunk isn't much to brag
on. We could do better than that with
one hand behind our back, if we were
half a dozen deputy sergeants.
The plain drunk chap was John Do
Ian. John is a good fellow, with a
cork nose, John is. He's just as good
a chap as you'd ever wish to see. Its
a pity he drinks, but he does. He was
blazing drunk on Fourth street, Centre
Wheeling, Friday night, and got hurled
into the calaboose. 81 and costs was
the cost of it.
Jacob Keister went to the house OF
Daniel Richie, on Friday evening, and
kicked upa row. We guess Jake had
his beer on, or he would have been
more careful than to 60 to friend s
house, a place where he was wont to 60
in other days to take his regular hash,
and kick up row. He was fined S.
and costs for his belligerency.

ESCAPED CONVICT RE-CAPTURED.-
About nine o'clock last evening, as We
were coming down Monroe street, in
company of Alex. Wallace, keeper OF
the lookup, just in front of E. G. era.
crafts office, we met a negro wearing
the penitentiary uniform. Officer Wal
lace at once took him in charge and
went to the jail with him. He proved
to be the halfcrazy negro, William Scott,
who was convicted of burglary, in enter
ing the residence of DR.. HALEY Mccoy,
about year ago. Scott said that he
left the penitiary about four o'clock on
Saturday afternoon. He had been sent
out for water, and, watching his oppor-
tunity, made his escape. He came to
Wheeling, in the hope Of getting a
change of clothing, and says, if he only
had been successful, he would have
alt out" He will be returned to his
quarters at Moundsvills this morning.

Ranchler, on Thursday laid complaint
before Squire Gillespy, charging August
Schafer with committing an assault
and battery on Agnes Ranchler, Jacob
daughter. Shafer was arrested and
taken before tho T"st;eo YESTERDAY.
The case being trivial one, better
counsel prevailed, and the case was
settled on the payment Of the costs by
Shaflcr. Mr.. Shahcr is a school teacher
in the German Church on Fourth street,
near Quincy. Ranchler says that he
used unnecessary severity in Furnishing
Agnes.

attention to the improvement OF their
stock. The display in this, as in each
department was truly excellent.
This is the finest exhibition this So.
ciety has ever given. The amount oil
premiums was $500. All the depart
ments, however, were not entirely full.
On the third day there were about $500
persons present, who were well enter
tanned. The officers deserve great credit
for the efficient manner in which they
dispatched business.

CoEREcTIoN.-By some kind Of hocus
pocus the name of George Carnahan
was set up by the printers and appended
to the petition to the Board of Educa'
ton asking for division OF the school
fund. We wrote the name George
Corngower. How any enc could reduce
Corngower to Carnahan we cant under
stand. Our manuscript is as
plain as copper-plate-that is some
kinds of copper-plate-and the excuse
of "bad writing" won't hold good in
this case. However, George Canadian s
name was not signed as one Of the COM
mittec.
