The Jackson standard. [volume] (Jackson C.H., Ohio) 1847-1888, 1881-10-27

mands imperatively that half dozen
such characters should be shot without
delay. Hollingshead has been in the en-
ployment of the Eliza Furnace Co., and
so Mr. Harvey Wells has taken him in
charge, and he is now at Mr.. WIS resi-
dence. On Sunday an operation for the
purpose of extracting the ball was per-
formed by DR.. Gardiner of Wilkesville,
assisted by DR.. Walmsley of Hamden,
and Drs. Rogers and Monahan of Wells
ton, without success, we are informed.
A splendid chance for Bliss, Agnew and
Co. to re-establish their somewhat DANA
ged regulations.
The next case was the arrest on Tues
day evening of VIM. O'Rourke on a
charge, preferred by his wife, of drunk
and abusing his family. Result of trial
held in bail to keep the peace, and to ap-
pear at court. NJ. O'Rourke security.
To complete the record of the fateful
Tuesday, the Messrs. Walker INDUCED in
an assault on Harvey Wells. 1t seems
that Mr.. w. was in the hotel Office and
was ordered out by Mr.. Walker ST. Not
going fast enough to suit him he attempt
ed to enforce his orders with his cane,
when his son David came to his help and
between them Mr.. w. was rather roughly
handled. Saturday this case was tried
before Mayor Brooks. The charge was
assault with intent to kill. E. B. Bing
ham of Wellston representing the prose-
cution and c. A. Atkinson of Jackson the
defense. The defense finally withdrew
the plea of not guilty and entered plea
Mayor imposed fine of SIS and costs on
each Of the Messrs. Walker.
The show was fairly well attended, but
the performance proved exceptionally
poor. From here they went to Coalton.
Mr.. G. M. Richards, our popular furni-
ture dealer, was married to Miss Julia
Dempsey, at the residence of the bride, on
Thursday morning, Rev. Mr.. Hall con-
Quoting the ceremonies. After the we'd
ding, which was very quiet one, Mr.. and
Mrs. Richards started on wedding tour
to Columbus. They expect on their re-
turn to begin housekeeping on Willard
Avenue. The bridal pair are among the
most popular young people of the town,
and start out with nothing but the warm
est wishes of every one for their happi-
ness on the matrimonial voyage.
Rev. Mr.. Hall lost his baby, Gilbert
Haven, from cholera infantum, on Tues
day morning. Both the older children
too have been dangerously i'll during the
week.
They had quite a smash up on the
Springfield road on Friday. An engine
and caboose ran into couple of cars
standing on the track south of Scott's coal
shaft. Result, two badly demoralized car
loads of rock and badly battered loco
motive.
The arrival of two car loads Of color
ed men from Charleston, w. Va. on
Wednesday afternoon has created quite
an excitement among the miners. An in
dignation meeting was held on Saturday
afternoon, but no decided action taken
until fuller attendance could be had.
The prospect for trouble is good at the
present outlook.
Oak Grove Sunday School, just east of
town, held picnic on Sunday. Consid-
ering the unfavorable weather the turn
out was good. In the forenoon addresses
were made by J. A. Calhoun of WellSton,
and by Rev. Jasper Smith of Missouri,
but formerly of this county. After a
bountiful dinner Rev. A. W. Long, of
Jackson, delivered an eloquent address.
He devoted himself especially to the
question of the duty of parents to chill
dren. Every one seemed much pleased
with his address, and ready to admit hav
| ing spent a pleasant day. The district so
far has no public school, it having proved,
so far, impossible to secure teacher.
Any teacher wanting a place would do
| well to apply to Mr. VIM. Persons, at once.
Wellston public school closed its sew
enth week ON Friday with 100 in Prima-
ry, 81 in Intermediate, go in Grammar
School and IS in High School. Total 245
and still they come.
| Among the new buildings of the week
we notice that of Mr.. Burns, east of the
Parsonage, under roof. DR.. Monahan, on
Liston Street, north of Broadway, and
that of the Milton Co. in the Milton lot,
| frames up.
The last weeks Enterprise says that
Mr. Wallace's is the only place where
fresh bread can be bought in Wellston
This is unfair to to the Allen Bros, who
keep full stock on West Broadway
Competition is the life of trade
Chas. Hays, on Broadway, has turned
his saloon into a meat and provision
store. We welcome him to the rank OF
reputable business. May his reform be
permanent. "While the lamp holds out
to burn the vilest sinners may return
! This leaves Wellston still with four sa
looms too many. MERCURY.
