a CUNNING GAME FRUsTRATED.-Thls
. morning about s o'clock, boy called at the
Jail with a custard pie in q square tan, and
also some apples, candy and crackers and
told Sheriff Merrill that the things were for
J. George Monagan, fellow who is in jail for
robbing j. O. Adams, of Presumption, last
January. The boy said they were sent BY q
woman who calls herself the wife of Mona
gan. The things were taken by the sheriff
and the boy left. As soon as he was gone
! the sheriff scraped the pie out of the tin, and
I held the pan over the fire, and in few min
utes false bottom was melted out and four
fine saws were discovered. The sheriff i'm.
mediately called City Marshal Chopper and
in a few minutes they ascertained that the
pie was baked in the Earnam House kept by
! old mother Barlow by Mary Monagan, alias
Wilson, and a girl named Lena Snyder, who
calls herself the sister of a man named Sny-
der, who is in Jail for stealing horse and
cutter in davenport. They also learned that
these MoAlen had procured tickets for Musca-
1 tine. Sheriff Merrill and City Marshal Crop
per Immediately proceeded to Davenport,
and there caught the girls at the railroad
depot, and brought them back and lodged
II them in Jail, thus frustrating a bold attempt
to furnish prisoners with the means of break
ing Jail.
81 If prisoners in Jail, or their friends outside
expect to elude the vigilance Of Sheriff Mer-
srill they will have to invent something shar-
per than they have yet tried Not an article
4 of clothing goes inside the jail but is thor
oughly examined in every part. Not an ar.
1 tcle of food can get inside the Jail without
first undergoing a rigid examination. No
bologna sausage. or can of oysters, or boiled
4 eggs, or anything else passes the grated door
y without such an examination as renders it
certain that nothing contraband is concealed.
Nor will suspicious persons be allowed to see
the prisoners, on any consideration. The
thieves, robbers, housebreakers, and other
scoundrels, inside, and the pimps, harlots
and their friends, outside, may as we'll make
up their minds that they are not going to
beat the sheriff with any of their shrewd
tricks. Not much. Not any. Lash

Catarrh Cured.

They are treating Catarrh On a new system which
is Sure Cure for the Disease.
Experience ha- proved that Catarrh cannot be
cured by local treatment alone; heEce the many
advertised cures FOR Catarrh, all of which are loo
remedies, give relief only while the patient is cs-
ing them, but never cure
Understanding the disease, and we know it can
not be cured by local treatment alone, therefore,
we also prescribe a constitutional remedy to be
taken, and by the combined local and
al treatment, we enabled to remove the cause
of Catarrh, aud thereby effect
PERMANENT CURE.
Their consultations for years have averaged from
FIVE to seven Thousand year, which gives them an
experience unsurpassed by any, and equalled on
ly by few.
Va Remember they do not promise to cure all
stages of disease. While all diseases are durable
If taken IN season, all stages not. Your case
may be durable this week, Aot next-to-day, not
Tomorrow; hence the danger OF delay.
No Case sciH be Receiued ,ohen there are any
-.. doubts Of Cure or Relief. ...'
Our terms are cash; hence the money must be
sent with all orders for medicines. It costs from
i've to fifteen dollars per month,to doctor with
no, which includes medicines.

indeed, the rarages Of The destroyer among

less general sensation. It is brought home 10
the British public By the greatly enhanced

1he process Is natural one. The fear Of loss

exposure induces them to send them abroad

reached English herds, : and has been widely
extended In the came way IN NIL parts Of Eng
land- A prohibition against the movement q
stock is now beginning TO be general resort
abroad by public edicts, and 1t may prove ef.
fcctual. At least, the presumption Is wnr-
ranted by the fact that In every case where
The disease has appeared It has been traced to
the introduction Of a diseased animal.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL,
MONETARY,

SATURDAY EVENING, Sept. 9.
To-day closes week Of remarkable financial ac-
uyity, and a decided stineency tn the money mar.
keL The calls upon the banks from country CORES
poudents have been uneeasmg, and although our
city banks have been very closely run, we believe
they have In no instance failed to reepond to the
wants OF their customers. OF course none but
thoee with the best margins and engaged
as entirely legitimate operations have
been recognized. There is an immense
a,n0,int Of coin yet scatte1ed through
the country, and holders arc ANXIOUS to push it
forward to this great grain eentre. OF course It
takes money to do this, and here Is where the con-
stont drain upon the banks comes rum In our
calls upon the bankers to-day We find that although
they arc drawn down very cose that as long a. they
have dollar on hand they win respond to The calls
made upon them from this source, There il but
one quotation Tor money and that Is 10 per cent.
Customers who arc in the disposition to offer more
ure not recognized as legitimate.
The active call for money Of cou1sc throws
hrEc amount OF exchange upon The market, and ne
