The Bloomington kidnapping Affair.

That case Of attempt ut kidnapping, noticed
so extensively in this mornings RlntdYraph, We
are satisfied is for the most part hoax. We
had written nearly column in similar strain,
founded upon relable information obtained from
headquarters. When We learned there we're two
sides TO The question, rs there usually is III
all quarre1s md matters Of difficulty.
So We went directly to that Irresponsible
firm" in whose safe keeping is rcposed tile wcl
fare Of those colored Individuals, and got what
We arc satisfied is the correct version Of the
mutter. 1t appears that Mr. Mcintosh as ad-
1ninistrator Of William Iamilton's estate came
here on legitimate business to ascertain how the
property was l.'ld, and whether or not it Was
not his duty to claim it az q part Of tue estate,
as Mrs Hamilton is quite poor and III need Of it.
Probably the whole difficulty arose ont Of the
fuct that tie deed had not been recorded us it
should hare been, having been neglected by
the attorney whose business it WAS to attend
to if. We hare it from better authority than
that from which our first information was de-
rived, that Mcintosh made no attempt to de.
COY uff tie boys or persuule them to return to
tie delights Of slavery II il true that lle was i'll

us wc1l yanlose strui.htwuy, but that fle would
BE- projected in the discharge of any Legitimate
business. He left on the train this morning.
Ne briiere the above is II correct statement Of
the case, though it may be possible that M1.. Nc
1ntosh culcarorcd to play double game: The
colored people are considerably excited, and
their exaggerated (stories must be taken will.

prevails in tue junk trade. We hear Of several
lots Of lead pipe taken lately on terms very pri
vate, but understood to be Of the class Of opc-
rations before referred to in this connection.
A well known plumber, John Hughes, has lost
within the week $50 worth Of lead pipe stolen
by boys from new houses where it was being
nut in by tile workmen. On Monday afternoon
officer Davis caught some boys bearing off bag
Of pipe, belonging to Mr.. Hughes, which had
been stalen from the house now being erected
for II. D. Ogden, near Washington Park, on the
Nortl. Side. Three boys were implicated, one
Of them employed in a dry goods store, md
we're brought before the Police Court yesterday
morning. The leader was sent to the Reform
School, and upon the other boys was imposed

Tns NEW WATER F1LrEu-we have frequent
occasion to refer to the impurities which often
render the water supplied from our Water
Works hardly drinkable. We are glad to learn
that the new " Draper Filter" is on sale in this
e;ty. We have before alluded to its crownipg
merit Of being se!f-eItaning. simple and e1~
ceeding'y ingenious ccntrivance changing ut
will the flow Of the water from one direction to
the other through the ti1tering medium. In Ill
other f}tercrs the impurities are left to collect
md starnatc until the filter comes 10 demand
re.6lling. In This new flterer the filter teeps i.
.elfpcrfect,y sweet aud Glenn, and ccrtainly docs
its work admirably in freeing the water from
;onnr;,ies. See advertisement in another col
ttfuu.
