4 large and pleasant reception wal
held, last Friday evening, at the resi-
dence of Mr. ] b Rothchild, on Main ST
Music and dancing we're freely INDUCED

selves as having enjoyed q delightful
evenings entertainment The part,
was given in honor of Miss Jones, o
Bucvrus, and Miss Stearns, OF Clncln
natl, who we're visiting with the Mise:
Rothchilds. The latter lady has since re
turned home .
We notice. once more, The genial
countenance Of our old friend, DIR Oes
terlin, who returned TO Findlay last
Saturday morning, after having spent
many months in foreign travel and sight
seeing. We understand the ID. was
quite unwell on his arrival in New York
city, last week, but has apparently re-
gained his health. and looks very hale
and hearty. His agreeable and enter
tanning companion, Mrs o, has also re
turned and we know the people Of Find
lay sincerely welcome back these old
residents. 1t is said the DIR was little
homesick while absent which is very
possible.
Annual Excursion 10 Soldiers Home
at Dayton. Thursday, Aug 10th. over
the L &LRR.
Sixty kegs of beer shipped from Tole
do Just before the strike, did not arrive
here until after the strike The parties
to whom the beer was shipped refused
to receive it.
When is that Sandusky street sidewalk
leading TO East Findlay, to be attended
to? 1t has been in miserable condi
ton for some time, and is even danger
Gus to pedestrians. A good plank side
walk would not be expensive and would
be very serviceable. Let our city faith,
ers see to this soon, and they will be
duly thanked by large part of the
community.
A large number OF. farmers were in
town Saturday, greater representation
We think than has been in at one time
since the 4th of July, consequently bus
iness was quite lively all day. The fact
that our merchants who advertise did
by far the largest trade was squite notice
able and is very suggestive.
Sunday was very warm and sultry ,but
most ofour ministers were greeted with
good audiences. This speaks well for
the religious sentiment of the people OF
Findlay. They do not permit variable
weather 10 prove an obstacle to their at
tendance at church.
After taking several tours of observa.
ton, We are sorry to state that the apple
crop will be very light all over the coun
ty, this year. But We hope the
farmers will not allow any to waste, as
the fruit will bring good price in the
winter.
Quite racket occurred at Whitehurst's
saloon Saturday night, being caused by
several fellows, pretty drunk, bent on
having row. They were soon turned
out of the saloon and induced TO take
themselves off.
On Saturday morning last We heard
some one coming up our stairs al
though he was full of business, and ere
we had time to conclude whether it wa.
some impatient creditor, circus agent
or minstrel man, the individual came
in bearing box, which he placed or
the floor with a jar, and as he did 81
there was a clinking of glass that wa
ominous. From Mr. Bacher,' he said
and he disappeared. returning with I
small ice berg which he sat in corner
ito keep it cool; and from Mr. Bacher.
Well, here was surprise Some on
had thought of the printer, sure enough
and as We removed the bottles of POI
and ginger beer from the box, We be
gan to realize how thoughtful it was Il
to send the ice also. The boys tried TIL
pop and the boss the ginger beer, AM
all unanimously voted Bacheris bottlins
works in North Findlay an A No estah
hshment. His cooling drinks and beveI
ages are put up in very nice style 70
f family use.
