IOWA NEWS.

The Van Buren, Democrat tells
the story Of one Thos. Howard, who
borrowed a razor and cut his throat
from ear to ear. He has been
man of good mind, but dissipated
habits caused loss Of position and
confidence, and no doubt caused the
deed to be committed.
The Independence Bulletin says
a school boy named Wesley Fields
had his leg broken by being pushed
by a comrade while his foot was in
a rut in the ground q. . Also that one
Wm. III. Knight who was arrested
in '65 for the safe robbery of that
county, sentenced for six years, par
doned in three and always declaring
his innocence, returned after two
years of wandering, poor penniless
and dying, and with his latest breath
protested his innocence of the crime
with which he was charged.
Mr.. Rhinehardt, living twelve
miles south of Abba, has a calf with
out eyes. 1t is now about a month
old and is growing finely. The pla-
ces wherein the eyes ought to be
are closed and are as hard as any
place on the head. 1t is all right in
every other particular.
The DEBORAH RcpubTcan says
John Wholeham was killed by a
train of cars near Ridgeway. He
was walking up the track when the
train approached, whistled him off,
and just as it came opposite he gave
lurch forward and was struck in
the breast by the engine killing him
instantly. Whisky. John Solun
was thrown from a wagon, his head
run over by the wheels instantly
killing him.
The Register says man named
Smith shot John Castle, the ball
taking effect in the left cheek under
the eye. Old grudge settled.
Nellie Ault, little girl eight years
old, died at the Soldiers Orphans
Home at Glenwood, recently. This
is the first death that has occurred
at the Home since it was first estab-
lished in 1866.
A child at Iowa City last April
swallowed a glass bead. 1t took
sick, and the doctors traced the
bead to bed in the air passage to
the lungs. 1t afterwards grew bet
ter, and the parents forgot their
fears. A few days ago the child
coughed up the bead and handed it
to her mother. SO says the Irib-
at91e.
The Moulton independent has
found another maidstone. 1t says:
"Mrs. McGinnis, living one-half
mile southeast Of McGinnis' mill, on
the Charlton river, labout six miles
from Moulton,) informs US that she
has mad stone that has been used
successfully in three different cases.
In one particular case the stone ad-
hered fourteen times. AS this is
only the third stone in the State it
will be well to remember il"
The Brighton Pioneer says: "Last
Friday afternoon, says the Washing
ton Gazette, Samuel L. Black, who
resides about elk miles north east of
Washington, while engaged in
rolling corn ground on his farm, by
some means his legs caught between
the rollers and other portion of the
machinery. His legs were horribly
mangled, and he survived the acct
dent only few bours. The funeral
took place last Saturday, and was
attended by large concourse of
citizens and friends. Mr.. Black was
an honorable and efficient soldier in
the late war; was member of Co.
ii, 18th Iowa. His untimely death
will be deeply regretted"

WHlTTEMORE AGAIN.

The case Of Whittemore, the ca
Diet peddler came up in Congress
again on the 2lst inst, and he was
refused seat by l3l to 20. Johr
A. Logan is the principal in the op
position to him, and has raised the
ire of the peddler considerably by the
persistent m hammer with which he pur
sued him. Whittenore now de-
clares that he will return and run
for the Forty-second Congress.

The telegraph inform us that the
dogma of the Pepe's infallibility has
passed the Ecumenical Council in
due form with an anathema against
all who dissent from it. AS origin
ally proposed, this anathema had a
very wide scope. 1t declared that
the infallibility of the Pope had al
rays been the creed of the Church,
and visited a solemn curse upon all
who should deny that proposition.
Inasmuch as all the American
and most of the French and German
Bishops did deny that 1t had ever
been the creed of the Church, their
present position is ludricous, il
nothing worse.

occasional discharges of fre-crackers in
the rear Of our Office, We are happy to
have the boys enjoying themselves, but
when we see the dry stuff among which
the crackers are liable to explode, we feel
nervous, and have gloomy apprehensions
Of fire. Moreover. there is an ordinance
posted up throughout town, forbidding
all such amusements until the "FoURrH."
We hope that, even then. care Will be
exercised when engaged in fiery sports.

AocrpRsrs from impure coal oil are

ACCIDENTS from impure coal oil are
becoming quite numerous. II Is well to
be very particular in purchasing, and
careful ia using this oil. Lamps should
always be filed during the daytime, at q
safe distance FROM any flame. II is not
necessary for fire to touch the oil. as gas
arising from il ignites quickly, even when
mixed with considerable air. There is
much impure oil manufactured now
which should be guarded against, as i, Is
quite dangerous to burn.
