stead to gentleman in Boston who assigned
his right as mortgage to George Sampson, a
member of the firm of Alden Sampson &
Sons, of New York. Mr.. Sampson brought a
suit of ejectment recently to gain. possession of
the premises, which suit is still in Court. Fri
day, Sampson, in company with three of his
employees and the City Marshal of Hallowell,
took possession of the lower part of the house,
leaving the lady members of the Stearns fami-
ly in possession of the upper portion of the
honse
Yesterday Sampson and those with him in
the proceedings of Friday, were arrested for
breaking and entering the dwelling of Stearns
and for riotous proceedings They were all
arraigned and the cases continued till to-mor-
row for hearing. Meantime the male mem
bers of the Stearns family are denied admis-
sion to the house, as are their counsel, and the
Sampson party keep in and around the house.
Food is passed in through the windows to the
ladies' Great excitement exists in this locali-
ty in regard to these proceedings, and public
opinion is divided as to which party is right,
Sampson or Stearns

ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.-Yesterday noon Mr..
Renjamin Marble, who resides on Spruce
street, attempted to take his own life. The
particulars are as fellowship. Marble, who is
man over 30 years of age, a pressman by
trade, but who has retired from business for
some time past, has been in failing health for
long time. Yesterday morning he attended
the Love Feast at the Pine street Methodist
Church, of which society he is a Steward, ac-
companied by his wife, but during the exer-
ctses said he did not feel very well and thought
he would 60 home. The sexton of the church
attended him to his house, but when they ar
rived there Mr.. Marble would not permit the
sexton to enter. As he acted strangely the
sexton, when he returned to the church, spoke
about 1t to two gentlemen present who imme-
diately went to the house. Mrs. Marble was
nextinformed, and she followed Immediately
after. When the two gentlemen arrived they
could not find Mr.. Marble anywhere in the
house, but on searching the wood-shed they
discovered him suspended by clothes line
from one of the beams. They Immediately cut
him down and DIR. Burr was summoned at
once. When discovered he was black in the
face, his tongue protruding and also quite
black, and there is no doubt that he could have
lived only few minutes longer. 1t is thought
that he will recover unless he has broken some
blood vessel in the head.
Owing to ill-health Mr.. Marble has not been
himself for some time, and friends have no.
ticed that he had sort of wild way with him.
sis known that temporary insanity induced
him to the attempt upon his life. He has al
ways been one of the best of men, of loving,
Kindly disposition, most earnest, faithful
worker in the church, and beloved by all who
knew him.

LEFT BEHIND.-Four or five of the steerage
passengers intending to go by the North
American to Liverpool last Saturday, had the
misfortune to be left behind at the sailing Of
the steamer. They went on board, upon their
arrival by train from Montreal, along with the
rest Of the passengers, and then thought they
would 90 up into the city and make some pur-
chases. Instead of asking some officer OF the
vessel when she was to leave, they inquired of
some lounger on the wharf, who told them not
before nine o'clock. Consequently when they
returned to the dock the steamer was gone
Il was . bitter disappointment to them, al
though they can take passage by the next
steamer One man however had left his ticket
in the keeping of friend on board, and he
will have to get work or raise the money to
buy another.

Seven Per Cent. Gold
First Mortgage Bonds,

At IS and Accrued Interest.

This road runs through the richest and most
thickly settled portion of this magnificent
State, and is the only link wanting to connect
st. Louis and st. Paul by direct line, LAT
miles shorter than any other
1t runs through the great coal fields of South
ern Iowa to the North where coal is indispen-
sable and must be carried. slalstl.
1t runs from the great lumber regions of the
North, through district of country which is
destitute of this prime necessity.
y IT DOES NOT RUN THROUGH WILDERNESS
where it would wait for years for population
to give it business, but through tier of coun-
ties which are now producing about twenty
million bushels of grain most of which is freight
for railroads. $3.50 3 la--s Gs-Af
Forty-five miles are Just diminished, and the
Superintendent reports that on the portion
open for business the net earnings are more
than the interest liabilities. ~
Sixty miles more are graded, and million
and a half of dollars have already been expend-
ed on the work. - .a
The mortgage is made to the Farmers Loan
and Trust Co., and bonds can be issued only
at the rate of SIG 900 per mile, or only half the
amount upon some other roads. Special secu-
rity is provided for the principal and for the
payment of interest.
First mortgages upon most railroads are the
very safest investments, and SO far as we can
learn, there is not single completed line in
the Northwest which is not only paying its in
terest, but good dividend upon its stock.
The immense grain and other freights to be
carried away, and the domestic supplies to be
brought in, ensure profitable business.
First Mortgage Bonds for SO small an amount
upon a road running through such rich and
already >von sottled part eli Iowa, can well be
recommended as a perfectly safe as well as very
profitable investment. At the present rate
they pay about ten per cent. on the invest
ment. Over $500, 900 have been taken by the
Company officers and others interested in the
enterprise. Pamphlets, with map, may be OBJ
