BOWLING.
A Newsy Letter from old Grld.-He's
on Earth Again.

I'D. JOURNAL Ill Is q long, long
time since | have seen anything in the
old JOURNAL from this place, so I
thought would send you u few items
Miss Mary Main has just closed six
months torn of school here. 1t was
one of the most successful schools ever
taught ut this place. She closed school
here on Friday last and commenced
another in the Sergent district the
following Monday.
II. II. Charles, the old veteran teach
er, will commence live months term
here on the Odd prox.
VIM. Roller and family had just got
moved into their fine residence when
about IS or so of his neighbors made u
raid on him. The scheme was concoct-
ed by Mrs. DR.. Brunthaver AMI Mrs
jameson. The plan was for each fam
lily to bring we'll filled basket. Part
of the crowd were to meet at the resi-
dence Of David Beard and part ut the
post office and ut the proper time all
marched in solid phalanx to the resi-
dence of Mr.. Roller. The plan worked
to perfection. Roller and his whole
family were taken completely by sur
prise. We had plenty OF good music
but no dancing. About 10 o'clock the
we'll filed baskets were brought out and
lunch was served. After all had par
taken of the good things to their ful II
satisfaction there seemed to be no di-
minution of the provisions, and there
were more than twelve baskets gath
cred up and the next morning it was
distributed among the poor.
Several fights have occurred in and
about Bowling within the past few
days. The parties were promptly ar
rested and taken before Chief Justice
Brown, where they received their
just deserts.
From reading last weeks JOURNAL
one would suppose that the Ropubli-
cans elected everything in Ohio.
Didn't the Democrats elect Justice of
the Peace in Perrysburg township p
Well, 1 should smile!
