LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
The Night Sell Question.

Editor EreRing Star: By the proceedings of
the Board of Health it appears that a pumping
company has pump, with which il is proposed
to pump out night soil out of our ssaky boxes
and place the same into air-tight barrels which
are TO be corked up and sent out TO farmers in
the District. Our scavengers are to be dis
missed should the new plan come into opera
tion-6O in number. Now, Mr.. Editor desire
TO draw your attention to this fact, that in this
District we have the small box system conse-
quently the work of removing the contents OF
one box is but the work of about hve minutes
TIC -reat trouble has been Wit, 49,. ~. fithv ani
open condition of the carts. Why an empty
cart was as Objectionable as a full one when
passing our doors. A grain of sulphide of am
monium will stink a whole room as effectually
as will pound. The Olfactories are capable of
being affected to a certain extent and no more
The great point or advantage to be gained by
anything proposed to be done by the new com
pany consists in the removal of the contents in
air tight barrels. If the Board o. aealth desire
simply to nd t.ne city of nuisance, &c has sim
ply to order that the cart system be abolished,
and that the night soil be hereafter removed in
alright barrels There is no invention in the
system proposed worthy of consideration when
applied for small boxes. 1t would just be as ra-
tional for this excavating company to propose
TO pump out the garbage out Of our swill pals,
Yours truly. A FRIEND OF THE DISTRICT.

The w ashingten Man who Undertook
to Mcddte with a stove.


Don't NEEDLE with stoves! Ifauything is ont
OF order go to your stove dealer get him to 10
your work and rag for 1t Ike q n,as.
Mr., Editor: / amt the "Danbury- New sman,"
or his cousin; nor "Niss Brow n" of the
Treasury But I do say as they have said
''don't NEEDLE with stOves!" and the reason is
this my bran new cooking stove, bought with
hard earned cash, came home and burned like
breeze until my wife wanted to bake; then the
darned thing banked and would not heat ~
worth a cent. A small examination showed
the draft over the oven out of place. OF
course to save a little change that might go for
beer at lunch time, thought could unscrew
the nuts under the stove, raise the top, ADJUST
the draft, set the top down again in proper
place, screw up the nuts and return his monkey
wrench, that might borrow for the job. A
friend mildly suggested that it would be safe to
put rope around the stove before commenc-
ing. What the devil that was for L did not
know, though / do know now.
Well, sir, got out of my comfortable couch
this a. m. at O'Clock, and commenced opera
lions at that early hour in order that breakfast
might not be delayed, and that the light bread q,
so spongy and sweet, might this time come upon
the table perfectly baked. Nuts icosed, o. X!
Covers off and all movable material set aside,
and y. X! Top raised gently and draft put in
place, o. X! Top down again and - MOI
thunderation, the front has sprung out and
front go gack. No pushing-no pulling-no loose
talk-no hard epithets-1sO nothing will make the
front 90, nor the top come. There is a point
in the Piscataqua river that you cannot row
around, and at this point the stove was like it.
Portsmouth people call "pull-and- be-damned-
pOh.!"
In two hours, that is seven O'Clock, when
breakfast should be on its way to the table, the
state of the case was this: Black face, black
clothes, black floor, and wife's countenance
blacker than all the rest together!" "What on
earth is the matter-just look at my floor, just
scrubbed yeSterdav-what are all these pots and
kettles and tops doing on my clean table? Just
like the stingy, meddlesOme men, always poking
about the kitchen to save "a cent? In two hours
more stove man had been there, and ii footed
up one dollar for the job, sixty-two cents for
broken fire bricks, an amount vet to be paid to
the scrubDing woman, and the dear only knows
the cost of the coming curtain lecture.
Hence my moral text!
Yours, very truly, BEANS.

y CLUE TO THE HUNTINGToN, l.. l., MYs-
TERY-The investigation into the mystery sur
rounding the Kelsey tragedy is gradually IN
ravelitng a thread of Important facts; but
whether the testimony thus tar will tend to full
ly explain the dread secret that hangs over the
affair it is difficult to prophesy. 1t is evident
that there are people in Huntington who are
able to throw light on the matter, but the InVes-
tgation thus far reveals a strange degree or re-
ucence, or a sad amount of foTgctfulness on the
part of those called to testify. On Friday the
inquest was resumed, and a col0red man was
placed upon the stand who had heard and seen
enough to identify more than one prominent
citizen OF Huntington with the taTing and
feathering OF one Of their fellow citizens. His
testimony was 80 convincing that two OF the
witnesses afterward put upon the stand feIt
themselves compelled to admit having a share
in the crime. One was passive, if not de-
lighted spectator, and the other admitted that
he went in disguise with the lynching party and
was present at the deed. This is the opening
wedge that eventually will let out the whole
truth. Looking at the case as it now stands, it
seems probable that half the leading men of the
village will have to be indicted for perjury.
