his wife on Monday, the 9TH instant, he came to
Alliance, bringing along Sl65 in greenbacks.
About S25 he spent in making family purchases,
after which he got inglorously inebraed, his
wife returning to her home alone, and James, by
reason Of his intoXication, slumbered in the lock-
up When let out Tuesday morning he again
went to tipplng and in his drunken gyrahons
took up his quarters at disreputabe house in
Freedom, where he remained two nights, On
leaving the house he discovered that his "W eath"
had disappeared. A warrant was then sworn out
by him charging Charles and Jerusha Davis and
John and Hannah sigel with grand larceny. The
parties named were arrested and had hearing
before Squire King Friday, which resulted in the
discharge of all the parties except Jerusha Davis,
who was sent to Canton to await the action of the
grand jury Alliance Monitor.

HISTORY OF SANDY TowNSHIP.-In our history
of this township as published last week, the fol-
lowing errors appear: 1t was William instead of
John Thompson who died in the war of 10. In
the organization of the township read 7th instead
ofl7th range. Welkers christian name was Hen
ry instead of William. In the paragraph on
Waynesburgh, strike out railroad before water
tank. Strike out N. in the name of Robert Nc
Call and substitute II. Richard X. instead of
Robert Gray. Jehu, instead of John Brown. 1t
should be mentioned that Peter Notice who re.
moved into the township from OsnabLrgh in 1872,
was aiterwari elected several times County Com
missioner, which increases their proportion of
county offices.

Right here and before the season fairly COM
mences, we will say that all poetry such as isgen.
orally owed to spring, will find a prominent place
in our pape-wase basket. Its all very well to
talk of "heaven.hued birds with songs so softly
sweet and the "shimmerng sheen of the laugh
ing moonshine" and all that, when real news is
scarce, but while we expect to have horse races
and Presidential commission dozers, we can spare
no space to the Simmer" &c.
