bages, but they wouldn't view. Where
his smiling garden had stood five fat COW:
were lying, contentedly chewing theil
"cuds." Then Jim knew where his cab
bage was gone. I'D. A. Lloyd and fam
lily, and Mrs. Olive South went to the Ex.
position at Cincinnati this morning.
A birthday party tonight at the resi-
dence of Mrs. George Blagg, corner OF
Broad and Portsmouth streets. George
is a member of the Cornet Band, and the
boys turned out and furnished some OF
their best music-Bingham is in town
to-day, looking after the coming Reunion
of the 7th Ohio Cavalry. 49,. Squire Jim
Kearney of Coalton, looked in on the
Democratic Convention to-day There
is a conviction that the rest of the Demo
cratic ticket was filed only to get men to
trade for votes for Reiniger. .Ha!
| We thought the Democrats were opposed
to having all the officers from Lick town
shipI Let's see-Auditor, Sheriff, Com
missioner-all Lick township men. If
the Democrats take the same interest in
the election they did in the nominations,
they will not be beaten more than eigh-
teen hundred in the county.
SUNDAY-Threatenin rain, all day.
-. "A number of young people went over
to "Ellis" Longs this afternoon, to call
on his family. :. We were shown an apple
weighed twenty-one ounces, and was one
of the largest and finest-looking we have
seen. -. The Salvation Army had a
small street parade this afternoon, but
tonight at the Hall there was one of the
largest crowds ever seen in the Hall. =.
Excursion trains running to-day on
the c., W. & B., owing to the travel to
and from Cincinnati. ID. d. Dun
gan awoke this morning to find that he
had met with serious loss, in the death
of the pretty little bay mare which form
ed one of the team he had been using
with his delivery wagon. This was
beautiful animal, and Mr.. DUNCAN had
steadfastly refused to sell her. The fates
seem to be getting after Mr.. Dungan's
stock. A short time ago his pony died,
then the cars killed his COW, and now
one of his beautiful team is gone.
MoNDAY.-Jo ohm Douglass is suffering
with ague. John d. Davis, of Jeffer-
son Furnace, is in town to-day. Mrs.
A. F. McCarley has been in poor health
for some time. Grandpa Ellhu john
son has excellent health, for man of
his great age. He has excellent
appetite, but is too large and
heavy to handle himself readily. The
old blacksmith shop, on Portsmouth
street is about gone-torn down.
Frank Price comes down as candidate for
Sheriff Frank never authorized the
Dems to use his name, and has no desire
to be swapped, for the benefit of some
body else -. DIR. johnson White is in
town. The Doctor is billed for Prohi-
bition speech over in Liberty. 1t is
high time that fighting on the streets
should be stopped. We have excellent
police officers, but they do not feel dis |
posed to meddle in private quarrels with
out warrants. The time has arrived, |
however, when street-fghting should be |
stopped. 1t is disgraceful and dangerous.
If a person has nothing nobler in view
than fighting like dog, let that person
be sent off to the work-house, where
some of the surplus muscle can be worked
off. 49,. There are two or three leather
canes in this place. made, we believe, in
but none of them have the
offensive smell' of the man-skin canes
brought out by the Governor.
TUEsDAY.-Met Mr.. Hugh Gilliland
this morning. He returned last week
from Lincoln, Nebraska. He found
Charley Atkinson in good health and
spirits, doing well, with a fine prospect
before him. Lincoln is a lively place,
some three thousand houses having been
contracted for within year. Charley
has purchased a residence, and is devot-
ing his time to his profession. He sent
his regards to all his Jackson friends.
We're glad to hear this report from Char
ley. We have had experience with Char
ley socially, politically, religiously, and
have always found him man it was
safe to tie to. Charley will do his share
IN booming the Great West.
