DIR. J. B. johnson was called,
night or two ago, to attend case at Coal
ton, which presented some strange, sal
features. 1t was that of lady, Mrs. Hill
who was evidently at the point of deatl
when the Doctor arrived, and he inform
ed her that there was no hope. She woulc
not give up that her case was hopeless
however, and while the Doctor was there

died. Her husband died short time ago
DR.. Drake was her regular physician.
| One of the Jail guards informed us that
| we made some mistakes in our Jail article
last week. Of course we defied him to
point to a single error, when he admitted
that the entire article was literally true
but that it was mistake to tell the facts.

place wrong construction upon the Ian
guage. Young man, let us say to you
that man with clear conscience has
nothing to fear from the truth. But we
did not tell all we know. 49,. While w.
III. Nickel was closing up his store to-
night, one of the front doors was swelled,
so as to make it difficult to shut. He at
tempted to force it shut, when the
large plate glass snapped, and fell to the
ground in fragments.
THURsDAY.-After heavy rain last
night, and the great thawing of the snow
and ice, the creeks are out of banks this
morning. Salt Creek reaches higher up
on the railroad bridge than we ever saw
it but this is perhaps caused by the banks
of the railroads. The funny spectacle is
presented of Sugar Run running directly
up stream with great velocity. Much
heavy ice is floating 49,. There are long
trains of cars loaded with coal strung
along the Ohio Southern road, for want
of facilities for moving them. .....W We
had a pleasant call to-day from Mr.. Geo.
Jones, of the firm of Jones & Morgan.
George is one of our most active young
coal operators. .... We met Mr.. S. M.
Pollock to-day and inquired what of the
new foundry and stove works. He replied
that nothing can be done until better
weather, save the collecting of patterns.
The machine shop is running along, turn
ing out some work. These men will make
things go, when they get the buildings in
proper shape. ..... We met our old friend
Charlie Carpenter this morning, upon the
street. Charlie informed us that he has
gone into business in the Crossin build
ing, near the mill. There was a
"breeze" to-day near the M. & G. Depot,
in which two men, Byers and Williams,
figured as principals. They were brought

was subjected to small fine, and Byers
was not. t.... +. AT the corner of Pearl and
Broadway, to-day, crowd of men were
around a tree. They were all
drunk, and two or three of
them were holding to the tree and hang
ing as though they were afraid to let go.
A colored man over on the ,other corner,
eyed them for a minute, then remarked:
There's hung jury, over there"
FRIDAY.-Michael Stanton, of Ports
mouth, is in town to-day. .... j. S. Ride
nour was at Keystone to-day, and took
dinner with our old friend and subscri-
Der, John Hawker. -. Mrs. Carrick, Hv-
ing on Pearl street, has been quite ill for
several days. -. Our old friend Pat De-
laney met us to-day on the street, and in
formed us that we were wrong in stating
that he had engaged in drunken row,
and been fined. recently. The other two
fellows were fined, but Pat was not, and
if he is always in as jolly humor as he
was to-day, nobody will be angry with
him. L. w. French, the merchant,
showed us something tonight in the way
of an advertisement for cigars, which is
suggestive, and truthful. 1t
advertises the Sons of Temperance cigars.
The picture represents large "Drug
Store" having above the sign the word
Saloon, with marks drawn across it. At
the front door all nationalities are going
in. A bloated Druggist stands at the
desk, writing prescriptions-all of which
call for whisky-and those receiving
them pass into the compounding room,
where whisky is mixed into all classes of
drinks. Along the bottom of the picture,
beneath the sots in the "Drug Store" are
the words IS. O. T. Cigars" The sad fea-
ture about the picture is its literal
truth. -. C. W. c. Perry, of Rays, is in
town to-day, attending examination"
80. Charlie Blagg is moving, to-day,
to the Thomas Jones farm, near town.
..... Our old friend Squire William J.
Callaghan, called on the Standard to-day.
We are always glad to meet the Squire.
SATURDAY.-If the grounding did not
see his shadow to-day, he was blind as
Democratic politician. 1t is beautiful
clear day, and reminds us of the time
when good old Uncle Tommy and Aunt
Ruth Hatton used to make homemade"
sugar and bring it to town to sell. Uncle
Tommy's sugar eggs" used to be one of
the infallible signs of coming spring. 49,.
The brute Stephens was taken to Waver-
Iy to-day. We had pleasant call this
morning from Mr.. FL. r. Snyder, editor of
the Waverly Republican. Mr.. Snyder is
young man of fine ability, a thorough
gentleman, and makes lively and newsy
paper. ... Our old friends Mrs. Hiram
Mayhew and Mrs. Nottingham Claar
called to-day. Mrs. Mayhem and her hus-
band, and Mrs. CIaar and her husband are
oountod among the Standards hest
