"A gentleman in the audience asked
Mr.. Jones to speak of Mr.. Hendricks
war record, tonight, and Mr.. Jones said
that when he was not in Congress trying
to prevont the furnishing ''a man or a
dollar for putting down the Rebellion,
he was over in Indiana trying to keep a
colored man from entering the State.
That is about the size of Mr.. Hendricks
record during the war.

John L.. .Anselm Matthews is putting
a new roof on his dwelling, on West
street. -. Some citizens were standing
at the corner of Pearl and Broadway to-
night, discussing the fashions, when one
that out west they had intro
duced the Father Hubbard" style of
dress, which consists of letting the shirt
hang outside of the pantaloonS. Some |
thought this would be a jolly good style,
calculated to create a sensation whenever |
but Dick Stiffler objected. |
He don't believe any one who has ever |
tried the style once, will fail to pronounce
it fraud.

frost. =. The friends and relatives of |
our old friend Charles MeKinniss have
been about his bedside to-day, as the old

Loosken, and other distinguished apos-
Ties of Cleveland's Reform, on their way

DR.. Phillips and George Mutt, of
Beaver, are here to-day, and were taking
a drive. around fine race-track this after
noon, in company with Sheriff Cheering
ton and Mr.. Henry Phillips. -. "A funny
illustrating the gullibility of
some Democratic voters, occurred on
street. A certain Democrat
was declaring, with much vehemence,
that he would not support Blaine, be-
cate in the Hooking Valley" "Well,
suppose that were true" said 10. Andres,
who was standing near, '1ook what
Cleveland did. He was President of the
Union Iron Company, and when Monroe |
and other furnaces had to stop, he took
all the money and went home to New
York." The man declared he had never
heard of this outrageous conduct of
Cleveland's before, and was evidently |
shocked at Clevelands utter wickedness.

dollars still hanging over the institution |

was destroyed. -. Mr.. Theo. X. Funk,

Logan Club here tonight. The G. A.
R. boys at Webster to-day attempted a
joke on William Tilley, which afforded
lots of fun. William made arrangements
to remain over until tomorrow, but
George Lynch captured him, and put
him into the train. Tilley ran through
the coach, jumped out of the baggage
car, and hid under the rear of the train
until the trein moved out, while the boys
were industriously hunting him on the
inside. -. The Wellston boys declare
they can beat our ball-club if we will put
in poorer pitcher.
