The Donaldsonville chief. [volume] (Donaldsonville, La.) 1871-current, 1873-11-15

ABOUT the middle of the seventeenth
century one Sarah Weber died in Holland,
bequeathing property then valuedat about
e36, 900 to her heirs but the property was
to be invested at compound interest until
the third generation appeared on the stage
of life. As the result of this curious ar
rangement about fifty ladies and gentle
men, claiming to belong to the Weber fam
lily, recently convened in New York City
to devise means for obtaining share of the
estate, which is now held by the govern
ment of Holland, and which is said to be
worth over 500, 100000. In fact, for some
thirty or forty years various attempts have
been made to bring together the heirs to
this vast estate. Now a committee Of
twenty has been appointed to take meas
ures to recover the property, to be re-
Enumerated by twenty per cent. on the
amount recovered; and if nothing is OBJ
tanned, the committee to pay expenses.

THERE Is NO DEATH.-If it be true that
Nature abhors vacuum, it is equally true
that the Great Creator abhors death and
glories in life. There is really no such
thing as death-tlIe term is misnomer,
used to designate the changes which occur
in life. Life, eternal life, is created by the
laws of Almighty will-power, which are
as immutable in their application as is the
existence of the Creator Himself. When
God made life, He made everything neces-
sary to sustain it, but left it for mans pro-
gressive intelligence to discover, convert
and utilize. Good medicine is to the all
ing physique what good fuel is to the ex-
piring flame; the better the fuel, the quick
er the fire-the better the medicine, the
quicker comes relief from pain. CALI
FoRNIA VINEGAR BITTERs is life's elixir
for old or young. Use this medicine
properly and you will live to a good old
age without those physical ailments which
make seventy years burden.

lung remedy, "Allen's Lung Balsani." This
Balsam has been before the public for ten
years. Notwithstanding this long period, it
has never lost one whit of its popularity, or
shown the least sign of becoming unpopular,
but, on the contrary, the call for it has been
constantly increasing, and at no previous
time has the demand been so great, or the
quantity made been so large, as at this day.
We earnestly recommend its trial by any one
who may be afflicted with a cough or cold,
and we warrant it to cure if directions are
followed. 1t is sold by all our city druggists.

A GOOD HAUL.
How a Notorious hummer got q
New Suit of Clothes

And Mr.. Lawrence has been victimized in
the following neat way. The Tribune tells
the sad story in the following language:
Big Foot Frank, who was corfned in
Lavenworth cslaboose for vagrancy, made
his appearance again in these parts last week.
During the ires!,.t he worked hard, though
rather ex,rsvsgantly. During Saturday
night he was employed with other men BY
the bridge company. Yesterday morning
he was paid for his services seventy i've
cents, in the form Of check on the First
National Bank. Through some oversight OF
cxrelessness of the person who wrote the
check, the figures read SO instead Of 75c.
The cashier promptly paid down the S75,
Tom not uttering a syllable. The mistake
was not discovered at once. Tom immedi-
stely bought new suit of clothes and took
the FIRST train for Leavenworth. He was last
zen in the rear of restaurant on the north
side donning bis new attire. When the
mistake was found out, very sudden inter-
ct wss felt for Tom the police hunted for
him everywhere-they wanted him bad.
Presuming that the feet were then on their
wsy 70 Leavenworth or Kansas City, the
M.rshals of these two cities we're telegraph
ed to. Later in the evening the Marshal Of
Leavenworth sent word BY telegraph that
Tom had been gobbled.
The Tribune very pertly inquiries what is
Roine to be done about it?

THF NARROW GAUGE.
Tone of the Denver Press.
Benefits to be Derived from the
Extension of the Road.

Ever since the news of Gen. Stones sue
ce.sful negotiation of the bonds, in Europe,
has been disconnected, our exchanges pub
lished along the proposed line of road have
been INDUCING in rap'urous articles over
the affair.
Especially has this been true of the Den
yer papers. The Neus has published both ed :
torial and local articles in relation to the
great benefits to be derived from the lire
when extended and equipped, and in Fs'-
days Tribune se find the following, which
is we'll worth reading by all our business
men and capitalists:
CAS- previously announced in the Tribune,
arrangements have been msde for the com.
pletion of the Lesvenworth 4 Denver mar
row gauge railroad. Of the total distance,
600 miles, % miles of the road, TO Holton,
Kansas, have been in operation almost a
year. and a. to business and capacity has
met the most sanguine expectations.
Col. Stone and other directors of the enter
prise have frequently been to Denver in con-
sultat;On with our leading men, and here re-
ceived much substantial encouragement. The
Colonel finally went to Europe, having list
advised with Gen. Palmer and Others, TO ne
gotiate . loan for building the road. The
fact that he has returned successful, is emf
nently satisfactory TO the business men Of
Denver. 1t will in two years give Ia another
eastern outlet, making, with the Julesburs
road, three instead of as now one line TO the
east; chespenine freights and passage. 1t il
estimated that Denver pays 81. 500, 900 per
year for eastern freights. These new lines
will cut down from % to so per cent. from
present rates. There will be q saving to Dem
yer merchants of SS75, 900 to $500, 900 per
year. We shall also see fares between Den.
yer and the Missouri river down to SIS.
