wins Station. As we came back in the
evening, he got on the train again, ac-
companied by quite a number of people
Then it was we learned that there had
been wedding. The contracting parties
were Mr.. Simpson Vaughn, of Jackson,
an Miss Corella Evans, of Twins Station,
daughter of Auditor Evans. 49,. The G.
W. 6 B. road has two additional engines
on the Portsmouth branch. -. Mr..
Blackhart, keeper of the water station
south of town on the Portsmouth Branch,
also keeps the water station at Efforts,
going down there on alternate days. .....
When Harrison Silvy was taken to Jail
the other day, the Jones brothers engaged
in prayer just as he entered. He begged
the officers not to put him in where that
praying was. He was kindly permitted
to remain outside until the petition was
ended, when he was chucked inside. The
Jail had no terrors equal to prayer.
Judge Miller is in the vicinity of Beaver,
hunting j. M. Trip has purchased
new breech-loading shotgun, likewise
Judge Miller. Those who desire to
keep hunting dogs, should ask Joel French
how to raise hound. 49,. Andrew Stiff
fer and his mother have moved into the
Dever property, on Broadway street.
THURsDAY-To-nigh we visited Dr.
John HI. Clewers. who is very low with
some kind of lung trouble. Although
confined to the house for many weeks,
and suffering considerably, the DR.. is able
to talk fluently and freely. in strong voice.
and his talk about Kansas, where he prac-
ticed medicine for years, was as instruct
i've as interesting. The Doctors friends
hope for his recovery, but he is very frail.
49,. Elias Long filed complaint to-day
against three men for hunting on his
premises without permission. This re-
minds us of remark made by an old
friend, few days ago, when he came in
to give notice to hunters: eff the birds
are not worth asking for, they're not
worth having. And we want to know
who is shooting on our lands. 80. The
notorious AL. Castor was brought before
Mayor James for trial to-day, on charge
of selling Intoxicating liquor to person
in the habit of getting intoxicated. 1t
was clear case, and the Mayor bound
him over to the Court of Common Pleas.
This fellow has tried. and tempted, and
trified with the mercy of the Court until
mercy must be well nigh exhausted in
his case, and it is highly probable that he
will not escape so easily this time as on
| former occasions. 80. 10. Andres, at the
the Reading Room received a mail sack
full of Public Documents from Hon. III.

of the High School held another meeting
49,. The old landmarks of Jackson are
fast being crushed out by the wheels o1
progress. Some of our younger readers
may think it unreasonable when we tel
them the facts concerning some of the
buildings in this place. For instance
the main portion of the res
idence of j. L. Ramsey used to be a bust
ness room, standing about where Chris
Bertsch's den now stands. The residence
Of Ed. Poor used to be United Brethren
Church, standing where the residence o
