Attention Thirty-Sixth Ohio!

Attention Thlrty -SlXJh ONO!
DR.. Holcomb went to Portsmouth and
made arrangements with the Reunion
Committee, by which Gen. Crook can
come to Jackson for the 7th, without in
terfering with his visit to the Ports
mouth Reunion. The matter now lays
with the General himself, and it is conf
dently expected that he will be here. The
place of registering, for Thirty-Sixth
men who come on Monday. will be at DR..
Holcomb's Office, over the Postoffice, on
Broadway. On Tuesday, the place of
registering will be at the Crescent Rink.
The absence of Col. J. J. Appler from
the reunions of his old Regiment recalls
the early experience of the Regiment
here. We recollect one day, when the
Regiment was moving along at Camp
Diamond, with Appler at the head of the
column, number of citizens were ad-
miring the determined bearing of the
man. One enthusiastic citizen remarked:
"Ah, tell you he's l6oa!" That was
about the last time that was ever said.
A young man in this place went to
Robinson's Show, and claimed that
Snowman had not given him enough
change by two dollars and half. Call
ing the Deputy Sheriff, he demanded his
money The Snowman carefully counted
it out and handed it to him, and he went
out. When he came to count it, he found
that the sleek Snowman had kept ninety
cents of it in his hand. He didn't go
backl
We feel like saying a word of praise
for the Camp Meeting Choir at this place.
They sing as well as any visiting choir
that has been here, and vastly better |
than majority of singers who come |
here. These people are all young, and |
with the proper training and practice
will rank high in the musical world. |
Miss Susie Byrd, the organist, has great
ly improved in playing since last year.
We trust these young people will keep up
their organization as choir.
"Waverly has a female wonder who
weighs two hundred and eighty-seven
pounds and can waltz with all the ease
and grace of a dancing master. Watch
man.
Whewl Graciousl Don't tell that story
any more until cooler weather, pleased
No man ever went out of town dressed
more neatly than ]. B. Howe, on his trip
to Columbus. Inquiry soon developed
the fact that Jim had been at the store of
the Sternberger boys, and at very little
outlay had secured full suit throughout.
Jim was delighted with his treatment by
the boys. And they certainly are good
and square business men.
The Portsmouth Committee fell into
the idea that the attempt to get Gen.
Crook here at the Reunion of his old
Regiment would interfere in some way
with his attendance at Portsmouth. This
is not the case, as the whole crowd will
be in Portsmouth next day-or most of
them, at least.
We understand that the c. w. & B.
will hold the evening Accommodation
over at Portsmouth until five O'Clock
each day of the Reunion, so that persons
may go from Jackson to the Reunion and
return the same day.
A gentleman left at the Recorders Of
flee few days ago, for record, a deed to
a quarter Of an acre Of grOund-eXcept-
ing certain piece reserved by a former
deed. The Recorder examined the deed
on Record, and found that the strip to be
reserved was one acre. What Bennett
wants to know is, how to make an equi-
table division by subtracting one acre
from quarter of an acre,
Il. w. Thomas does not promise chance
in lottery for buying his goods. But he
does promise to sell you Boots and Shoes
25 per cent lower than any dealer who
does.

Tuesday, and pay their respects to the
