THOSE GRUBs.-Many gentlemen. who put
tarred paper upon their trees in October, are
neglecting to renew the ink this Spring, in
spite of the repeated warnings of the PRESS,
and the grubs are going up over the bands as
freely as though no ink had been applied. On
trees on which the ink is renewed, twice
week, the number of grubs caught is very
large ssTae cry is still they come"

Filter and Cooler.

The celebrated Jewett patent Crystal
Spring cooler and filter combined, for
use in hotels, saloons, Offices, depots and
all public places, is just the thing to
purchase at present. The filter and
cooler has been furnished with the
patent plated selfclosing faucet, which
makes it perfect in every particular. A
Chicago man says Your filters give
entire satisfaction. Our lake water du-
ring the winter months is tinctured with
all manner of unpleasant odors from
petroleum rehneries, acid works, slaugh-
ter-houses, etc., and is, in short, COM
pound perfectly villainous to the taste
and smell. We have guaranteed every
filter sold to cleanse this water thorough
ly, and have not had one failu4- This
is the thing for Memphis, where the
water used in summer is filled with inn
puritities which breed disease. The
filter can be seen at the well known
stove and tin ware establishment of Fl.
Wetter & Co., Nos. 10 and Is Monroe
and 3l71 Main street.

age was done. The Arkansas war and
the spring season have warmed up the
blood of Memphians to the fighting
pitch of pitch in" no matter how you
come out Let us have peace.
A well-known lawyer entered the office
of Chancery Court Clerk and Master
Cole to-day and selling the court seal
ordered Captain Cole and his clerical
force out of the office, claiming that, as
in Arkansas, the possession Of the seal
gave him the right of occupancy Cap
tain Cole put in plea that in Memphis
to steal seal was penitentiary offense
for any man to commit, let his name be
Brooks or whatnot.
