Smith, celebrated his seventieth birthday
on Monday amidst an assemblage of his
children, grandchildren and invited guests

helped the guests much to stand that grand
old seventy shake dealt out by the honored

midnight.
John Chase entered His Honor's quarter
on Tuesday and spread himself to hear a
charge of disorderly conduct, preferred by

John placed his tannery upon Harry's foot
and then called him name that only such
characters as John can conveniently call
up. John got back on Patton by also plac-
ing a charge against him by which he also
came under that old reliable 81 and costs.

missed an avalanche OF JOY by Patton loos-
ing his grasp on Johns jugular when his

Jim, an interested member of kinnane 4
Wren, of Limestone street, visited Lenty's
meat shop, on Market street, Tuesday
morning, and assaulted Burt. Lenty, one OF
its connections. Marshal Hayward filed an
affidavit against him, and His Honor
heard his bellgerent nibs to the extent Of
IS and costs. There was nothing honorable
about the attack, and luckily for Jim it
happened to be the slender portion Of the
| firm. If it had been otherwise, the services
of board might have been found wanting
1t is to be hoped that Jim's fate will be a
lesson for his reserve force. This thing ol
keeping up mad" for three days is sure
TO get one down.
Hiram T. Kelly filed an affidavit before
Squire Hollenbeck on Tuesday, upor

tract in Newaygo County, Mich, which
was represented 10 him (Kelly) as good oak
land, but, upon examination, proved to be

about to be sold for taxes. Oldham says

incumbered for all it was worth. This in,
teresting affair will be sifted in the
