The times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1882-1897, 1883-09-28


"Original Nashville Students" well
known jubilee singers, on Monday
evening, Oct. 8, at the Baptist church
in this city. This is justly one OF The
most celebrated of the travelling
troupes of singers and they every
where command the highest public
appreciation. Admission so cents,
children under IL years half price.
There will be a temperance meet
ing at the Baptist church next Sum-
day afternoon at four O'Clock, post
poned from last Sunday on account
Of the storm. The address will be
by Mr.. M. H. Reynolds, of Benning-
ton, one of the most active and eff
cient temperance workers in the
county. There should be large at
tendance.
Mr.. E. O. Place, of Shiawassee
township, left at this Office on We'd
nesday, two plates of very fine peach
es, one of early Crawfords, the other
"Red Cheeks" These were grown
on his farm on the Grand River road,
which we understand is for sale on
very liberal terms. The farm is said
to be a good one, and it is very GER
tain that land which will produce
such fruit must be valuable.
The fall meeting at the celebrated
Chicago Driving Park will be held
from Oct. 6 to Oct. IS, both days in
elusive. Many of the very fastest
and best-bred horses in the country
will be there and with good weather
the meeting cannot fail of being a
success. The premiums exceed $780,
900 and the entries are proportion
ately large and some of the trots will
be exciting as on that track can be
made better time, with the same
effort, than on.any other in the west.
1t is hoped to see large gathering
of the men engaged in the breeding
of fine horses, and we doubt not pub.
lie interest will secure the largest
gathering of the eason. For further
particulars address D. l.. Hall, Sec'y
Chicago Driving Park Association.
The T., A. A. & N, railway is
now fixed fact. Mr.. ]. M. Ashley
Jr., is now in Owosso, has rented
business offices and is engaging men
and teams to push forward the work
of the construction Of the road from
Owosso to St. Louis with the utmost
possible dispatch. He says he has The
money to complete the work. That
there will be no delays, and that in a
very short time the cars will be run
ming to St. Louis. This time there
will be no failure. The road will be
built to St. Louis, and it must be
built via Bancroft to Howell, and the
people along the line south must now
be up and doing. A united vigor-
Gus effort will ensure success there as
it has on the route from Owosso to
St. Louis.
