STOLEN PROPERTY RECOVERED. - Not
many days ago Widow z. Mckay, residing
on upper Rampant street, was robbed Of
three gold watches, four silver watches,
two gold lOckets, several pieces of jewelry,
two CarrOllton bonds for $1,000 each and
Plaquemine police jury warrants. The
affair was apparently about to lose itself
with other mysteries of the past, when the
lady unexpectedly received letter through
the postotfice, informing her that all the
property could be found in her yard vault.
A vidangeur was sent for, and he quickly
tished up every piece of the stolen wealth.
M. J. O'Brien had been arrested on suspi-
ciOn that he was the thief.

IT WAS Nor RIOT.--Last Friday half q
dozen policemen assembled in front of
CamOrs st. Charles street restauraet, as in
duty bound, for they were summoned by
hearing the excited voices of six French
men, all Of them gesticulating violently and
talking at the same time. The officers
grasped their clubs nervously, and seemed
to have an itching to draw their pistols;
but still they waited and said nothing. ap-
parently expecting heavy work. Suddenly
three of the gentlemen from France
emerged and rapidly strobe across the
street, as il bent on a terrible mission; the
others remained quiescent in the restau-
rant. The trio called on a well-known
money broker of st. Charles street And i'm
patiently asked him about the construction
of French sentence, as big bet was pend
ing on it's correctness or incOrrectness, as
written on the slip of paper one of them
held in his hand. The broker gave his judg
ment in the case and it was against the
handsome creole boy of St. Charles street"
After that the MetrOpolitans retired,
evidently glad that no blood had been shed.
However, q black bottle was brought out
and between mixed sentences of English
and French could be heard the expressions
&c faisant and on &c fdisant Doubtless some
thing was meant but of course this reporter
being a remnant of Russia could not even
CLEAN an item more than is made here.

The BLOODY KNIFE.-,At the lager beer
house street, a cutting ARRAY occurred yes
terday between Henry Diehli and Gus
Richards. The former was stabbed near
the aOrta with what was supposed to be

striking rib did not intlict dangerous
wound. DR.. j. T. Newman, sanitary in.
spector OF the district was fortunately near
and dressed the wound at the drug store at
and the wounded man was taken by his
friends to his residence, No. 436 Magazine

locked him up in the third precinct station,
making charges of cutting and wOunding
with intent to murder, and assault and bat

HANcE BLACK is jolly miller, and
loves joke with mGre ardor than he
does beef steak. He boards at the
fremont House, and the girls there
know well how he relishes joke.
They placed in his bed one day last
week pillow filled with snow instead
of feathers. Hance got up next morn
ing with a severe cold and hasn't re-
covered from it yet. But he hasn't
heard of the joke. OF course we won't
send him copy Of this weeks JOUR

do MT mention the matter when you
meet him. It's good enough for him.

don the hotels and live in smaller
houses where they will not be so liza

A COOP CHANGE.--it has been the
custom In this county, hitherto, for
the sheriff, under instructions from
the District Judge, to summon the
Grand Jury to meet on second day of
each term Of Court. This rule, and
the inability Of the Judge to reach
Knoxville before Monday evening,
has caused some delay and expense.
Judge Winslow has now given i'm
structions to the Clerk to have the
Grand Jury summoned hereafter for
the first day of the term, and will be
here himself in time to open court on
Mondays.

JOKE ON BoTH.-A young man who
may be found during business hours
behind counter not more than two
doors from Rockafellow's on the east
side of Public Square, had an engage
ment with his girl in the east part of
town for last Sunday evening. On his
way down Main street he met Doc.
w, who suspected his destination
and determined to play joke on him.
We will call the young man H.,
though his initial is higher up in the
alphabet. "Good evening, H." said
tile Dr., in good natured tone, indi-
eating at the same time that he wished
to stop and had something further to
say. 81 don't want to interfere, H.,
but perhaps / can do you a favor by
saying that If you are going to the
house on the next corner you had bet
ter go up to my office and be vaccina-
ted first why, Doc. ?" inquired
Fl. anxiously. Well. the fact is a
friend of theirs from the east came
there this evening sick and they sent
for me. 1 have just been there, an d
found IL q case of-well, l needn't tell
you what it Is, but they have it in
Pella and thought / would just give
you hint of IL i'm time" Well,
Doc, was going down there, but I'm
glad you told me. Guess I'll go back
with YOU"
There was light in the parlor on
the corner, and two chairs by the
warm stove, but the chairs were not
occupied that Sunday night as usual.
Fl. will have sore arm in a few days.
But he declares he Is not afraid OF
smallpox.

THE RAILROAD.
Win it Pay to Subscribe 2

Sixty bushels of corn per sefe is not
an extraordinary yield fora Marion
county farm. Ten cents per bushel is
the difference in price between here
and railroad towns. If our farmers
sell here they get ten cents less; and
If they haul to the road it costs ten
cents to get it there. That makes a
loss of So on the product of every acre,
every year, while they do without a
road. you raised 80 acres of corn
last year you paid $500 for not having
road. On the product Of go acres you
paid loss of 5000. Now wouldn't it
be better to pay one, two or three dol
lars for every acre Of land you own and
get roadin time to remove your crop
this year, and thus save one-half or
five-sixths of the amount you lost last
year, and save all of 1t next and each
following year?
Further, the price Of your land will
be doubled, and the coal under your
40 acres will sell for more cash than
your whole big farm will bring now
without road.
In the civil township of Knoxville
there are very nearly 10000 acres.
The value of every acre of this land
will be increased from five to forty
dollars by the building Of a railroad.
And if only one dollar of this advanced
value per acre should be subscribed In
stock to the road, 1t would bring $70,-
600, and the balance could be raised in
town, and leave nothing to be done in
the townships between here and Abba.
We cannot hope that this will be done
by all land owners in the vicinity of
Knoxville and along the line of the
road, but it ought to be. Every man
of them could subscribe even So for
every acre he owns, and yet make q
splendid paying investment.
AS great saving per bushel will be
made on wheat as on corn. On hogs
and cattle the saving will be en-
ormous; and if you want the truth
about the matter you must count the
cost of transportation, either to or
from the railroad, on everything you
sell or buy.
1t will not do to sit selfishly down
and say "The road will be built any
way, and will get as much good of it
as any body else, but others may pay
the money" This is not honest; and
further, it will not build the road.
The people must come forward and
subscribe literally, if they want the
road. Talk will not bring it. No
man must lag there is duty for ev-
cry one. Every hand must be put to
the ropes, and if this lis done, with a
shout, and one strong pull we will
bring the locomotive in time to re-
move our autumn crop this year.
