The Thirty.Ninth.

Joseph H. Gibson, residing at 701
Madison street, is painter in the cal
works of the Jackson & Sharp Co., and
yesterday he attained his thirty ninth
anniversary. However he hadn't
thought much about it, and went to and
returned from his work as usual. Com.
ing home last evening he found the
other half of his joys away from home,
but she like good wife left word where
she could be found, and of course she
couldn't think of returning home with
ont her husband for an escort. This
was OF course an unexpected pleasure,
and at the residence Of Joseph Conner,
3l2 West Seventh street, husband and
wife met. An hour passed away and
Mr.. Gibson reminded his wife that it
was getting late, and the little Gibsons
were at home without any parental
care or watching.
"Never mind they'll have company, !"
said Mrs. G. Mr.. Gibson again remind
ed his wife of the loneliness of the
children when together they started
homeward, and arriving there the So
licitous husband found his residence
full of friends. He was warmly con-
graduated on the thirty-ninth. return
Of his natal day. He submitted with
exceedingly good grace to the situation
and entered into the enjoyments of the
hour. The evening was spent in an
enjoyable manner, vocal music predom-
mating Messrs. Gibson and McDanel
Refreshments were served in
abundance there being more than
enough for the forty visitors present.
rhe company separated about mid
1ight wishing Mr.. Gibson many happy
anniversary returns.

fined 50 and costs.
Margaret Dever was found wandering
aimlessly about In the neighborhood oi

As Margaret possessed no home she was
granted free board at New Castle fol
thirty days. ...
Last evening Mary Megray came "a
the hall to see her pail Margaret Ma.
rooney, and as Mary was considerably y
under the weather she was locked up.
She had just arrived from wintering at
Fort Pyle. Mary said she w,uld leave
the city il permitted to go. She was
granted 40 hours to arrange her toilet
before she bade our city adieu.
Robert Carr was charged with drunk
enness and was subjected to a fine OF
fifty cents and costs.
Barney Bailey was very drunk and
disorderly, for which offence he was
directed to pay fine Of 50 and costs.
Jack" Reed was charged with being
drunk. He had arrived from New Cas-
tie yesterday and obtained lodging in
this city. Jack became so drunk
that he mistook cellar door for his
lodging house, and went to sleep there
OH. He said he would gaze upon the

part.
The request was granted and Jack

O'Leary honor.
Edward Simpson was fined 81 and
costs for being drunk and disorderly.
William Trusty preferred charge VI
assault and battery against "Mas"
Jones. Trusty asserted that he was at
the saloon at Eigth and Tatnall streets,
and was importuned by Jones to play
bagatelle. Seeing that his denials would
not be received he at last consented.
The game progressed smoothly for
while when quarrel ensued. Jones
seized a bsll which had been used in
the game and threw it at Trusty. The
latter individual said the ball hit him
in the mouth and knocked ont tooth.
Other witnesses denied that the ball
had hit Trusty, but corroborated the
statement that Jones threw the ball.
The act was considered an assault and
Jones was fined 81 and costs.

The Spirit of the Lord was at work in
the very outset of the meeting. Mr..
Haldeman stated that instead of going
into the inquiry room as usual with the
iuquirers, lie would receive them at the
front of the church and speak and pray
with them there. This change in the

that when he went into the side rooms.
he felt his mind divided between the two
meetings. About twenty-five rose for
prayer and came forward. Some EIGHT
or ten persons presented themselves
for Baptism; many more are expected
tonight. But it was very evident that
Mr.. Haldeman labored under one dis
While the ladies of the
church are greatly in earnest and are
working zealously the brethren seem
to fail in coming forward promptly in

from hesitation, to meet the demands
upon them, than from a want of desire
to work. 1t is evident all that is need
ed TO secure great ipgathering, is an
honest, prompt, energetic action, on the
part of the brethren of the church. A
