EAT RIPE FRUIT.-One of the oldest and
best ph ysicians in Connecticut constantly
recommends eating ripe fruit. If each in
its season is psrsaken of when fresh, there
is little fear of any of the summer diseases
that are so common in some sections, and
which cause so much trouble and so much
e Expense. Bard, a. the sign Of the painted
Barrels, mas a full supply Of al kinds,
besides new and choice stock Of family
groceries aud table supplies.
THE Union and its two leading lawyers
ance in their opinion of the legality of Al
derman Gray's signature Is Acting Mayor.
If they IN ierstood the facts in the case two
leading LAWYERS would not risk their reputs
ton bv giving such opinion. The law
yers referred to are probably Mr.. Ashenfeiter
late Of the Union office, and Mr. Hawiey,
late OF eongress,- very brilliant lights in
the legal fraternity. Perhaps the Union
! will refuse to pay the tax authorized in the
ordinance signed by Acting Mayor Grsy. Il
/ would be such q nice wav of settling the
/ question.
New PAPER.-We have received copy
of the new paper, the Liberal, which was re
ported about TO be started in Molina, but
which is Published at Gales burg, In this
State. The paper is the same style, and
looks very much like Appleton'S Journal,and
contains record of home news, with care>
fully written articles on the popular topics
of the day. It's managers and editors are
among the sbest newspaper men, AID
scholars, which will make the Liberal popu
lar "a filing a want long felt The person
about to start paper in Moline under the
same name has probably appropriated the
name, and may have some difficulty, as the
/ style and name OF the Liberal is copyrighted.
1 So think the proprietors of the GalesburC
| Liberal. 1t has the mark of ability and will
doubtless enter upon field of usefulness,
such a. other papers can. We wish it sue
cess in its liberal undertaking.
! The Davenport, Gazette ia Iaboriug hard
to make temperance question out Of the
/ Nelson Donovan murder in that city, but
has not grit enough to attack the question
squareiy. Correspondents, however, argue
that it was cool biooded murder, with but
slight pretext 4 thorough investigation
& ~ aFt r.,
and the introduction OF some additional
I testimony, might make 1t very warm for the
/ parties who are spelling for re. hearing OF
the case. The coroners jury held Nelson
! for examination for killing without sufficient
provoca.ion, and on the very start the pros
ecutiug attorney acquIts the man. 1t the
Gdzette only had the stamina to call for al
investigation, it might possibly learn some
thing. The case will probably come before
the grand jury for an airing, when the
Gazette will have a chance to air itself. Its
attempts to fores,al the action of the grand
jury are not well put-they show an inordi
nate desire without the pluck 20 accomplish.

AT about eight o'clock yesterday morning
an accident happened at Mr.. Jacob Frey
singers dissillery, at Camden Mills, which
did considerable damage and came near
proving fatal to Mr.. George Freysinger. He
was standing near the immense tub in
which is the 300 feet worm. This tub prob.
ably contained besides the worm about 300
barrels of water. He heard cracking
noise and jumped for life, and it was well he
did, for the upright pieces that supported the
tub gave way and the entire mass came
crashing down just where he had stood but
an instant before. II came with such force
that it broke through thu side Of the building
In one ruinous mass. The probable cause
t OF the accident was that the upright pieces
'hat support the tub were old, and a large
new pump had just commenced to play into
the tub jarring with increased force the
"uo'e weight. The loss will be from 1900
Ito $1,000.
