An incident in relation to Mrs. Richardson oc-
CURED at the Crestline depot while the guards
and prisoners were waiting for the Columbus
train. She was sitting in the waiting room with
her lady attendant, when Quaker gentleman
and his wife, who were also waiting for the train
sat down beside the latter, and engaged in con.
versation. 1t seems the Quaker gentleman had
been reading notices of the Richardson case in
some paper, but had not learned the result and
when he found that this lady was from Canton,
he asked her what was the latest news of the
Richardson trial and before the lady could reply,
Mrs Richardson herself spoke sharply up and
said Nothing at ALL we don't know anything
about it," The lady attendant was so taken aback
that she made no contrary reply. The prisoner
also took her entire wardrobe with her to Colum-
bus, but when she learned she could not be per-
mitted to wear any but the regulation suit she
took it much to heart and sent her clothing back
to Massillon. She afterwards sent in for State
Senator Haines of this district, to ask him
to intercede for pardon, or at least that she
m ght be permitted to wear her own clothing, but
no action was taken.

LOUISVILLE Us. FORT VA YNE r. r.

The corporation of Louisville in this county
and the Pittsburgh, Ft. Wayne and Chicago Rail
way have an unpleasant disagreement. 1t seems
the Louisville people have forsOme time demand
ed more railway facilities, in addition to the
mail trains one express and the Dutch local, ask
ing that at least one other train each way be re-
quired TO halt even if 1t were only to stop by flag
ness requirements justify all they demand; and
also, that the Railway authorities have promised
from time to time, that Louisville should have in
creased facilities. Some months ago the village
Council of Louisville passed an ordinance requir-
ing all railway trains to limit their speed to four
miles an hour within the corporation. No attempt
was made to enforce this ordinance till Monday
evening last when the conductor Long" Scott
and the engineer of the l030 o'clock express train
east were arrested and taken before Mayor Penny
on the charge of violating the ordinance 1t seems
the Marshal and deputies had been noting the
speed the train, and the red lightof danger
brought the train to a halt when the arrests were
made After considerable delay in the train,
hearing was fixed for Wednesday, yesterday when
Judge Underhill appeared for the CorporationRnd
Mr., Lynch for the Company; Jury was had and
the case was given to the Jury about IL o'clock
lasr night We hope for an amicabe arrangement
and a treaty of peace and amity that will soon
restore things to their ante bellUm status and with
full accommodations.
The jury brought in verdict of twenty five dol
lars fine.

One evening last week young man of this city
drove up to the residence of his girl to take her
sleighing to Massillon. He didn't have to get out
of the cutter for as he stopped, heavily wrapped
and yelled creature tripped out and took seat
beside him, and in silent pleasure he drove off.
Not much was said by either party on the way,
and the voices of both were quite unnatural, he
wearing muffler over his mouth and she veil
but when they reached their destination, the
young mans feelings must have been wroughtup
to a terrible pitch, as he saw, instead of his own
fair peach blossom, the hired girl of the house,
who had been expecting her Jimmy around with
a horse and cutter. He hastened back to Canton,
but too late to convince the girl that night that
the whole arrangement was not put-up job.
