THERE will be a regular meeting of

little business done.
THERE was Nh unusually large at
tendance on yesterday at the various
churches and Sunday schools in our city.
Standard BsiLairs Local.
I'VE would respectfully inquire how
the Standard man knew" that the at
tendance was large? Did you attend all
of them, Brother Naylor?
OUR enterprising fellow citizen, Chas.
Henry, coal merchant, has just invented
and has in use at his coal works, u new
and very useful device for removing or
drawing coke from the ovens, which will
certainly prove very beneficial to all
persons VINO are engaged in the business
of burning coke. 1t not only facilitates
the emptying Of coke ovens, but saves a
large amount OF hand labor 1t is SO
arranged that by simply turning crank
the coke can be removed from the oven
in FIVE minutes, while in the ordinary
way it requires an hour and half to
accomplish the same thing. Mr.. Henry
informs US that he has applied for ii
patent and we have no doubt but what
he will obtain one, and make money out
of this novel and very useful invention.
The holidays passed off remarkably
quiet in the way of disturbances, there
being but little drunkenness or rowdy-
ism to mar the peace and good order OF
our CITY. There were fewer arrests than
for wears, and this certainly speaks well
for u growing place with the population
and peculiaritics of Bellalrc.
THIS wear Bellairc will get rid of some
of its officials pets When the spring
elections come round, some Of them Will
be elected ont of office, and Bellaire Will
be happy and prosper.
YESTERDAY was "blue Monday, and
dull" was no name for it. Bellalre never
was more lively than during the holidays
lust over, but "feast or famine Is the
way the world wags along.
AT the reopening of our public schools
on yesterday, promotions from one
grade to another of the merltorlous, were
the order of the day, and the trade IN
new school books was lively.
BUSH Ess at the Police Court has been
little more lively the past two or three
DAYS. AT the matinee III the Mayor
office Yesterday, five cases were before
his Honor. and met with the usual fate
of transgressors; and there Is a chronic
case still remaining in the lookup rumi-
mating over the troubles Of the evil docr
for the deeds committed in the flesh, and
realizing the sad, yet truthful words, that
uN-ica 10 n monster OF such frightful mcin,
That 10 be hated, needs but 10 be seen
Yet seen too oft, familiar with her face,
We first endure, then pity, and embrace
THE Bellaire wharf has now "a home
on the rolling deep somewhere between
this city and Cincinnati, and there is
scarcely stone left to mark its late brief
resting place. The present City Council
would be fitting one to make an appro-
priation to gather up the remainder and
erect an appropriate monument 10 the
memory of the glazing incompetency of
some Of our city officials and inscribc on
it: To the memory Of the dcad-beats.
