The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1886-06-17

A Jail delivery occurred in this village last
Friday evening. There were but two occu-
pants of the lower portion of the Jail, Bob
Oaks, who was awaiting trial for assault with
intent to do great bodily harm, and Merritt!
Dow, charged with horse-stealing. Some
one had passed in file to them which they
used diligently and judiciously, and in con
sequence thereof, they both breathe the air
of freedom. Perhaps this occurrence will
convince our board of supervisors that il is
a necessity TO fence outsiders awoy from the
Jail as well as to lock prisoners in. The only
occupant of the Jail at the present time is
BOWS wife who, is awaiting trial on the same
charge that was pending against her husband.

On Thursday morning last, about ten
o'clock, a fire broke out around the chimney
of the house occupied by Geo. Hennessey.
Fortunately. it was discovered in time and
extinguished before any great amount of
damage was done.
Shortly afterward, fire was discovered in
manure heap between Mrs. Hendricks
and Gen. Changers barn and the alarm was
at once given. Owing to the extreme drouth,
the fire spread with great rapidity and, al
though the fire company was promptly on
hand. before water could be thrown, the two
buildings were enveloped in flames. The
generals barn was entirely consumed and
the other one might as we'll have been. The
former was occupied by Holmes & Spicer
who had potatoes and some other property
stored there. Their loss, however, was not
great. The Hendricks premises were occu-

the school during the present year and fin

consisted in the trampling down of his fine

caught fire, and few hundred dollars will

In view of the fact, says The Galres-

lately made a statement to the effect
that he was the publisher of one of the
esrliest religious papers in the country,

been associated with Galveston and her

brings forth veritable ancient relic in
his possession in the shape of worn

Allan father personally conducted the
publication of the religious periodical
IN New York, and claims that it was
among the very earliest if not the first,
publication of it's kind launched forth
in the United States. AS it's title de-
notes, the contents are devoted exclu-
sively to religious topics, such as SER

LITERARY NOTES.

LEA BROTHERS, of Philadelphia, the
noted medical publishers, have issued
the first number of the Medical Book

semination of sound medical litera-
ture. The first number is fair promice
OF what are to follow, and affords a
very clear and Ineligible idea of the

art and surgical science. Every pro.
gressive doctor should get the Medical
