The indianapolis News tells this On
South Illinois street, not far from McCar-
ty, stands residence having about it II
peculiar history, aud so supersttious have
the neighbors become that to their af-
frlghted eyes it is haunted domicile.
The house in question is II plain unpre-
tending structure, but on account of the
prayful wish of the present owner, who
desires to sell, further description is omit
ted. The lot upon which il stands was
sold In November 1870 and the purchaser
at once commenced building. The work.
man hired to Dig the cellar died before
the LAT or was haif competed. Carpenter
No. soured on his contract to build the
house, aud Nos. and 3 threw up their job
before the work was done.
Purchaser No. failed about this time,
and the ground was sold to No. ,, who
commenced sundry improyemenls-amOn
others the digging of a well, The sur
roundings evidently had deleterious ef-
feet upon the well-digger, for he became
disgusted, went of and got drunk, and
then murdered his wife aud cut his own
throat. It required four contracts to flu
ish that we'll.
The contract for digging Il cistern was
let TO man who shortly after beginning
the work broke his hand and had to quit.
Three painters have been employed in
painting the residence, and the job is not
vet done. The second purchaser of this
property died very suddenly before the
house was completed, and the first tenant
took down with the smallpox
Purchaser No. while he owned the
property had NO of his children horrib y
burned by II coal oil explosion. Painter
No. 3, left his work, got drunk, and laid
in Jail six weeks. On Christmas last
some boys tried to burn the residence ia
the ground, but the situation was 20 lucky
that the fire went out of It's own accord.
The above are but few of the hOrrors

ent owner is desirous of selling .out at d

Heavy Failures In Baltimore.

Five heavy importing firms in Baltl-
more failed Thursday week, producing
quite panic in the commercial circles in
that city. The Sun alluding 10 the matter
in lis financial article says "the whole
amount involved in these suspensions. it is
understood, will probably reach $2,0OO.000
bat the houses all claim to have asserts
ample to discharge the Indebtedness if
they are rcalized.".
The imTicon says the amount Of liabil'
iii is estimated at nearly s3,OO0,OOO, but
il is impossible to speak with certainty as
to this. or of the ultimate result of the
disaster-although il is generally believed
that the suspension will be only tempor-
AIRY, and that the majority, if not all, of
these houses will speedily resume business.
The Gastne says ''No such disaster as
the failure above noticcd has hetallen
Baltimore for long series of years, and
