The allegation of the plaintiff, that ha

cation; that the water then ran off. The

Members toll us thnt it was announced
in Bt. Luko M. E. Sunday School on Bun-
day that on tho first bright mounlight
night, a reunion wonld take placo in tho
beautiful grounds surrounding the build
ing. The objeet is for common enjoy,
meat and acquaintanceship.
It is said the Baptist oburch intends to
hare a similar festival. Why not have
them on the aame evening ? This
would be really jolly. A fellow oonld be
come a regular floater, and wander around
promiBonounly.
Wa have often thought what a beauti
ful park those two lots would make, if
they ware thrown into one. Tbo idea
was suggested years ago, but it has never
seemed to be very popular with the mem-
bets of the church. Two prettier en
closures are seldom seen. Tho Baptist
lot has boon wonderfully improved since
1858. All the trees, excepting a few
China berriea and tbo foreat growth, have
been planted ainoa that yaar. Won’t the
ohnrahts make a park of the two enclos
ures?

The new railroad schedules are work

—It ii astonishing how averse some
men, and women, too, are to contributing
a dollar to a public enterprise on which
they expend any amount of talk.
—There onght to bo n dog killing in

—A Gatholie lady Bent a note to the

—Young Awerioa No. 5, in the inter
vals between fires yesterday, filled the

their new “cut-off,” which pleasos some

by the operation.
—Tho new twenty-eent silver piece is
similar to the quarter dollar, with tbo ex
ception that the word “Liborty" aoross
the sheild is raised and tbo design is
smaller, in proportion to the sixo of the
ooin. On tho reverse is an eagle, hold
ing in his talons the olive branch and
three arrows. At each end of tbo in
scription, “United States of America," ia
a six-pointed star. Beneath the eaglo are
the words “Twenty Cents.” The edge of
the coin is not milled, os ia the cose on
all other United States silver coins, this
difference probably being intended to
distinguish the new piece from the quar
ter dollar. The words “In God Wo
Trust,” wbioh have appoared on most of
the national ooins of late years, are
omitted.

The alarm ball pealed forth yesterday
morning about 10 o'clock. All appeared
to be impressed with the Idea that it was
the residence of Mr. D. W. Appier, cash
ier of the Central Railroad, at Columbus,
and tha ganeralidea proved to be correct.
Thia was tho third time hia house had
caught in twenty-four hours. This waa
rather heavy on one man. The flames
wars in the same position aa yesterday,
between the front wall and plastering;
but on the opposite aide of the hall from
that of the day before. It was easily put
out by the extinguisher. Many did not
believe in incendiarism, bat tha rata and
matches reoeived the blame. Competent
men, who examined the location, state
parties oonld not have placed fire where
it originated.
At noon another alarm was given. The.
rush was again for Mr. Appier's house.
A good shower was falling, end the fire
men were pretty thoroughly wetted.
This time the fire was not found on Mr.
Appier’s promises, but on those of Mr.
C. H. Dudley. He owns n two-story
house just west of Mr. A’a. The fire was
found in the same position as tha former
ones—between the front wall end plaster
ing, Mr. Appier had n portable fire ex
tinguisher. With this he extinguished it,
with the help of Mr. Dudley, before the
engines arrived.
Examination under Mr. Dudley’s house
showed that the sill, upon which the fire
had beou kindled and orept upward be
tween the wall and plastering, had been
pretty thickly oovered with shavings end
ligbtwood splinters. It is supposed they
must have been fired ia the night by a
slow match, which made n failure. We
are inolined still to the rat and match
theory, beoause we oannot hear of any
possible motive. Were one eotiug from
revenge he or she would fire the pleoes
in the night end suooeed.
A Story at Killing an* Hanging.
A strange story, seemingly well au
thenticated by letter, oomea from Texas.
It waa the general talk yesterday in cer
tain circles, and henoa we give it. Many
of our readers will remember Dr. Skin
ner, who oame here after the war end en
gaged first in the eotton and afterwards
in the grocery business. He left Colum
bus some mouths ago. Now this letter,
the talk goes, relates that a man named
Davis left the Dootor ss guardian
of his ohildren and soma money he
beqneathed them. This money Ifr. S.
spent or lost. One of the Davises
made an attack on him on his arrival in
Texas and Dr. B. shot him. Then, it is
said, the Doctor waa tried and hang,
whether by the mob or after a regular trial
does not appear. We hope this may not
be true, though we bear men say they
have confidence In the information—in
faot have no doubt of it, as they know the
writer of the letter. It Is said to have
occurred some weeks ago.
Only Struck Ilia Hand.
A forty foot ladder, plaoed against a
two-story house, fell yesterday and
knocked a negro down. He was sense
less for a little while. In the ef temoeu,
a gentleman thus aoooated him: “Jim,
did it hurt you muoh?" “Not berry
muoh—only fell on my head—dat'a all,
maasah," was the answer.

Mean Water.
The water of the well in the Court
house yard tastes so badly that it is hardly
fit to drink, though it has ioo in it. Buell
is the general opinion of all who are ac
customed to oistern or good well water.
The Judgo is supplied with oistern water.
Tho lawyers take that abominable stuff
and seem to relish it. There ought to be
a cistern in the Court-house .yard.
While upon the subjeet of that yard, we
notioe that the grass in many spots is
dying. This is unusual at this season of
the year. The rains do not appear to have
helped matters muoh. The prospect is
fair for heavy rains. Thus far we have
had only showers.

It is with feelings of gratification that
we are able to announce that the Grand
Jury re-elected yeaterday Messrs L. F.
Garrard, W. G. Woolfolk, and Peter
Preer, County Commissioners. They
were eleoted for terms of three, two and
one years in the order their names ap
pear. The members wore eleoted for the
terms each individually desired. To
these gentlemen and our noble Ordinary,
F. L. Brooks, the oounty has said “well
dona.” They found her, three
yeera ago, |with a debt of over $50,-
000 hanging over her. Binoe that time,
they have succeeded in paying off the
entire oounty debt and have ample funds
in tha treasury, and have fine bridges
and good roads. This, too, notwithstand
ing tha faet that the fresheta last year
injured or washed away every bridge in
the oounty and all had to be renovated or
replqped. Tbo eouuty roads are heavons
to what they wero. Prudenee, economy,
wisdom and hard work have characterized
their oourse, and the Grand Jnry has
gratified the the publio by their re-elec
tion.

Killing of Doga.
There ore more dogs, we believe, than
male inhabitants in Oolumbns. They
often make night hideons with their
barks end yells. There is no nse for ono-
fiftieth part of them. They consume
more food than the same number of
white persons. They exist in every vari-
ety, from the impertinent flee to the
fierceness of the bull dog and tho superla
tive meanness of theyellow hound. Now
wo have an ordinance on the Conneil
books requiring ail dogs to be killed that
have not badges, bought from the Oily
Clerk at one dollar each. There ore hun
dreds of dogs that daily trot oar streets,
whiah have not the vestige of a collar or
badge. Now, this works a hardship on
thoso who paid. Either give them back
to the paying owners their money or kill
the dogs of the delinquents. Order the
exeention of the canines, Mr. MoHhenny,
and you will have the thanks and prayers
of many who have suffered from the
terrible dog nuisanoe. Let’s have a
canine slaughter, and Columbus will be
blest with a soarcity of fleas. Let dogs to
your boles be the rallying ory.

shoot some one, finally drew his pistol
and commenced on Lewis Thompson,
who was shot in the side; he then
shot at Bill Wadsworth and John Bell,
but missed them. He then made for the

fast for him, and oanght him in front of

Grand Central Motel,'New Yor7t~Vlty.
The proprietor of tho Grand Central
Hotel takes great pleasure in announcing
to the traveling publio and the commu
nity gonarally, thnt after two years of in
cessant labor and an expenditure of two
millions of dollars, the above mammoth
marble Hotel is now completed, and open
for the reception of guests.
Tbe great advantages of this hotel, with
reference to its superior location, Us vast
size, unsurpassed accommodations and
magnificent resources, render a statement
of its claims to public patronage appro
priate in this circular.
It is situated on Broadway, opposite
Bond, and occupies nearly tho ontii$
block botween Bloocker and Amity
Streets, inoluding the following num
bers : 607, 609, 671, 673, G75 and 677, of
that thoroughfare, and 204 to 216 inclu
sive, on Mercer Street.
It is eight stories in height, and em
braces more area than any hotel in this
continent or in the world, and is capable
of entertaining 1,500 gnests. It contains
636 rooms, 200 of wbioh are en suite of
from two to four each snite, provided
with largo pantries, wardrobes, bath
rooms and closets, including hot nnd
cold water in each, the remainder varying
in size and location, which only a Hotel
of snob magnitude could possibly offer.
Its entrances, of whiob there are four,
are broad and spaoious, and load to no
less than five wide and oommodioas stair
ways, the main and principal one being
entirely of marble.
In connection with the first floor, there
are two large and poworful steam elova-
tors, capable of oonveying guests to tho
highost story, in 30 Beoonds, with inter
mediate rests on every floor.
The Furniture of the Hotel is of the
newest and most elogant character, hav
ing been manufactured expressly for this
house.
The carpets wero made to order in Eu
rope, of the richest and most expensive
material, being of Axminstcr and Wilton.
The parlor carpets were especially do
signed to add to the almost Eastern splen
dor of the Hotel, while tha heaviest of
Frenoh plate glass mirrors, together with
the richest and latest ornamental furni
ture, add to the reception rooms and par
lors all that the taste, the comfort and
happiness of the guests eould require.
The throe extensive Dining Rooms seat
600 gnestB at one time. The vast resources
of the establishment in efficient servants,
permitting that division of labor so
essential to a prompt and impartial at
tention to the wants of all.
The Hair-Dressing Saloon ia fitted up
in splendid style, with all the modern
conveniences, and is under the supervision
of Mr. M. P. Browning, who, with a corps
of experienced attaches, will personally
attend to the oomforts and demands of its
patrons.
Beneath tho Grand Exchange is the Bil
liard Room, containing 18 tables, all new
and of the most celebrated make.
The Bar Room is situated in the Grand
Exchange, whiah contains in addition a
bulletin of the news received honrly from
all parts of the United States and Europe,
by home telegraph and mariDe eable.
Attached to the Hotel is a newspaper
Depot, Telegraph Offioe, and Railroad
Ticket Office, combining oil the requisites
and requirements of a great aud publio
enterprise.
It is contiguous to the Theatres, the
Aoadomy of Music, and all the other
places of publio amusement aud attrac
tion.
Tho Hotel has os a part of its necessary
out-door accommodations, 15 Carriages,
all new, and under the direct control of
Mr. F. O. Bellows, which will always be
in readinoss upon call, either day or
night.
Nearly every Omnibus line in the oity
posses its door at frequent intervals,
while ull the numerous routes of street
cars arc in the immediate vicinity.
It is in the very contie of the great re
tail houses, iucluding the oelebrated ono
of Messrs. A. T. Stewart A Co., making
its location ouo especially'adapted to the
wonts of a large portion of the traveling
publio.
Notwithstanding all these great and un-
equalcd advantages in location, accommo
dation, and even splendor, the proprietor
wishos to say that the terms for board
and rooms are only from $3.00 to $4.00
per day, nocording to the location of
apartments.
Ho believes this will fill a great vacancy
now felt by tho public, where tbe highest
oomforts nnd first-class accommodations
are offered at prices to meet the demands
of tbe great Mercantile community and
Families, which never before has been
tally supplied.
Hoping to meet the approval and en
dorsement of tbe general publio, and tc
prove worthy of their long and continued
patronage, he respectfully and cordially
invites an examination and trial of the
superior comforts, accommodations and
advantages above set forth.
