guilty or not guilty to the charge, he re-
piled: well, Judge, I want information.
l want to know if the Court of Cincinnati
can control the acts of men in Clermont
County~ mo, sir" replied the Judge,
'but if You sell anything in market that
you did not raise yourself you are liable to
arrest unless you have license" 'Well
Judge, there's lots more just like me, and
we all want information. You know when
an old sheep jumps the fence the rest will
all follow. All l want, Judge,
is information "Well now,
look here, Mr.. Marsh" said the Judge, quite
angrily, "you've said that often enough.
Now 20 into the Mayors Office and take
out license and that will settle the whole
business" The Granger from Cermont
went, murmering all the way that what he
wanted was information.
George Hetz was stood up for using in
suting language to Rosa Merryweather.
The Judge told the latter that if Hell in
suited her again for her to just take a club
and whack him over the head with it. He
fined He'll $25 and costs.

The Jews in America.
fJpwish Times

We are convinced that the almost uni
versal use of the German language and
the extensive use of the Judisch-Deutsch
patois by the Jews of America are the
causes Of nine-tenths of the so-called
prejudice against the Jews in the United
States The attempt to Germanize Juda-
ism. in America is blunder, nay, a
downright crime. Americans must speak
the language of America if they wish to
be regarded as Americans. We need an
American Mendelssohn to teach this les
son, and the sooner we find him and the
sooner this lesson is taught, the sooner
will Jews in America come to be regarded
as Americans, and the sooner will the
prejudice against the Jews cease to
exist"

Amusement Notes.

At the Bellevue House the German mill
tary Band will render a fine programme
tonight.
"Pinafore" at the Zoo had another very
fine audience last night. The bright little
opera presented in this novel way has new
charms that make it necessary for everyone
to hear it again. Every night and matinees
Saturday and Sunday at p. m.
"Widow Bedott," Mr.. T. r. Locke's ex-
ceedingly funny play, will doubtless make
q big hit at the Grand next week, as it has
wherever it has been presented. Mr.. Neil
Burgess is pronounced one of the very finest
comedians in the country, and the company
that is to support him speaks for itself.
The Theodore Thomas summer nights
concert at the Highland this evening will
be delightful one. The programme, which
we have already published, is made up
mainly of familiar music that has grown in
favor with the Highland audiences. The
change in the weather will induce an i'm
mense number Of people to attend. These
entertainments deserve the liberal patron
age they have so far received.

lPittsburg TcleGraph.1


Robert Heron, of Lawrenceville, and
John Singerly, cf the Twelfth Ward,
returned home on Friday last from Kan
sas, greatly disgusted with the people
and the prospects of this alleged Western
Eldorado. Last February they invested
about $4,000 in Barton County land, in
the State mentioned, and in the same
month they, in company with their fam
lilies, moved to the scene of what they
then supposed would be the stepping
stone to future wealth and comfort.
They claim that the land and the living
was greatly misrepresented by the agents
through whom they made the purchase,
and that instead Of finding place where
their after lives might be spent in peace
and happiness, they realized in the course
of few months that such thing was
out of the question, at least in that por-
ton of the country in which they were
then situated.
They say that the agents will promise
anything until they get you out there,
and then they leave you to shift for

that, owing to the severe weather, the
crops this year were considerable of a
failure, except with respect to corn, the
wheat and fruits being quite bad. In re-
gard to the latter, the returned Pitts
burghers say that the apples out there
are not to be compared with those
raised in the East, and that the trees are
so small that ''no man will ever break bis
neck in failing from the highest branch
es." 1t is alleged also that the people
are not SO socially Inclined as they
might be. and this is really one of the
great drawbacks of the country. In fact
Messrs. Heron and Singerly were not in
the least impressed with what they saw,
and determined to return with their
families. Accordingly they rented their
property for the annual sum of $l25 to
lanother venturesome party, and then
took the FIRST train for home.
