NEW 100 GOLD LOAN
SAFE! PROFITABLE. PERMANENT

Jay Cooke & Co. offer for sale at par and ac-
crued interest the First Mortgage Land Grant
Gold Bonds OF the Northern Pacific Railroad Co.
These bonds are secured, first, by first mort
gage on the railroad itself, its rolling and
all equipments; second, by first mortgage on
its entire Immigrant, being more than twenty
two Thousand acres of land to each mile Of road.
The bonds are free from United States tax +; the
principal and interest are payable in gold-the
principal at the end Of thirty years, and the in.
terest semi -annually, at the rate of seven and
three -tenths per cent. per annum.
They are issued IN denominations of 800, $500,
81 900, S., 900 and $40, 900.
The trustees under the mortgage are Messrs.
Jay Cooke, of Philadelphia, and r. Edgar Thorn
son, President of the Pennsylvania Central Rail-
road Company.
These Northern Pacific 730 bonds will at all
times before maturity, be receivable at ten per
cent. premium for $l.10l, in exchange for the
Company's lands at their lowest cash price.
In addition to their absolute safety, these bonds
yield an income larger, We believe, than any 9TH
States 5-20's can, by converting them into North
ern Pacifes, increase their yearly income one
third, and still have perfectly reliable invest
ment.
How TO GET THEM.-Your nearest bank or
banker will supply these bonds in any desired
amount, aDd of any needed denomination. Fer
sons wishing to exchange stocks or other bonds
for these, can do so with any of onr agents, who
will allow the highest current price for all mar
ketable securities.
Those living in localities remote from banks,
may send money. or other bonds, directly to us
by express, and we will send back Northern Pa
cifc bouds at our own risk, and without cost to
the investor. For further information, pamph-
let's maps, etc, call on address the undersign-
ed, or any of the banks or bankers employed to
sell this logn.

$ PATENT WHITE WIRE CLOTHES .LINEs.--It af-
fords us much pleasure to call the attention of
our readers to another improvement recently
made in the Patent White Wire Clothes Line
with which we are all so familiar. Messrs. R.
T. Bush s. Co., proprietors of the Hudson River
Wire Works, have constructed ingenious
machine for braiding twisting, SO that now
instead of using one single wire, they use sew
eral small wires twisted together, which makes
a line more pliable. much smoother, stronger,
and better in every way than the old style. For
bringing out and perfecting this White Wire
Line, the manufacturers justly deserve the
blessing of every housekeeper from the Atlantic
to the Pacific. The Hudson River Wire Works
have long been established, but was little known
before the White Wire came out four or five
years ago. Judging from present appearances,
this new line viii supersede every other style,
and in a few years be the only kind of clothes
line in use. Our advice to every one is, get one
of these labor saving articles if you are not al
ready supplied and if you have one of the old
style, we think it will be better to use the wire
you have for some other purpose, and buy one
of these braided lines for your clothes.

DISTRESSING ACCIDENT!
Two Boys Drowned in Lake

One of the most heart-rending casualties II
has ever been our duty to record. occurred at
Lake Brady, in Franklin township, and about
four and half miles from this village, ON fri
day afternoon last Mr. Harvey Cooley resides
near the northeast border of the little lake
above named On Friday forenoon he and his
wife rode over to the village Of Kent. leaving
their three sons-eharIes n. aged 16, Martin G.,
aged Il in March last. and Henry z, nearly 1s
years of age-at home After the parents were
gone, the three boys went down to the lake and
went In bathing. returning about noon After
partaking OF s lunch. the Oldest brother sat
down TO read. and becoming absorbed in his
book. took no notice OF where the other two
went Later in the afternoon the clothing Of
two boys was observed ON the shore of the lake,
but no boys were seen abont to whom it could
belong. suspieions were aroused that the boys
to whom the clothes belonged had been drown
ed, and inquiries were made about the neigh
borhood 10 ascertain what boys were missing
In the meantime Mr.. and Mrs Cooley returned
frQm Kent, and not meeting their two sons, who
rcrs alxays accustomed to meet them at the
ga<e, Nhen they had been absent. they made in
quiries for them az the eldest son. and the father
went 10 the neiehhors In search of them, where
hclearped the circumstances Of the finding OF
The clothing. and upon going 10 the spot. dis
coTered that Il Was thai Of his boys. and the
terriblc conxiction that they were drowned
forced itself upon his mind.
L The alarm was Immediately giran. and in .
short time large number Of people assembled

conamsneed. Al about eight O'Clock one Of the
bodies was recovered, and the search for the
other was abandoned tn the next morning. In
the mosnin5 tho search was renewed. and the
! boay Of the ether was recovered at about ten
O'Clock. 1t seems that after partaking Of their
lunch, the boys went back to the lake, and again
/ strippe1 and went in. The water near the shore
is quite shallow, and one can wade into the lake
some rods, but it suddenly breaks OF and is
livery deep. At this point is a large rock, and 1t
is supposed that the boys had constructed bark
rope, which they attached to this rock, and hold
ing on to this fraii support, drew themselves up
and down in the deep water, and that the rope

The terrible calamity came like thunderbolt
from clear sky to the hearts of the devoted pa
| rents, who were thus suddenly bereft of their
/ brightest earthly treasures, and cast shade of
sadness and gloom over the whole community.
The funeral of the two took place at the Con-
gregational Church in Kent, at 10 80 O'Clock on
| Sunday morning. the services being conducted
by Prof Barrows, of Hudson, and was attended
by large number of sympatliising friends.

The numerous friends OF Mrs. Ingell, OF MAN.

will be pleased and gratified to learn that she
is now rapidly recovering from the almost fatal
effects of the rash attempt upon her own hfe.-
The reports in circulation with regard to her
husbands previous abuse and his subsequent
conduct, are no doubt greatly exaggerated, but
if the half be true. they show him to be q mon
ster of human depravity, utterly unworthy OF
the confidence, respect and love of a true and
affeetionate wife. We learn that she has al
ready commenced proceedings in our County
Court to obtain divorce from him, for his cruel
and unnatural conduct toward her, caused in
part by his love for that enemy which makes
such sad havoc with the peace and happiness of
so many households.
PERsoNAL.-We just had the pleasure of meet
ing Mr.. Henry Granger, a former resident of
this town. who is at present here with his wife
and daughter, on a visit to their friends Mr.
G. has resided for many years In Clayton coun-

Uncle Sans domain. He reports the crops
