JORDAN TOWNSHIP ITEMS.

BY EGYPTIAN.

Several of our citi sens have taken shares in the new railroad. Miss teaches school at the new school house—Mount Prospect. Oliver Larshball is a lonely man and lives in Jordan township. Oliver has gone to Michigan to get him a woman. This to the second trip he has made sot that purpose, and we hope he will be successful. Chris. Biddlo is a dutchman. One cool mopping Chris, went to the well to draw some water. Unfortunately his foot slipped and he found himself in the well with water up around his neck. There he shivered ten long minutes ere he was rescued. Considering his situation we suppose Ohrto. took things rather cool.
