When His Honor tripped lightly up
the steps of his pigeon-hole this morning,
and seating himself comfortably, made a
dash for his lead pencil, his eagle eye
wandered 70 the sweat-5ox, and seeing
the unusually small number Of vags,

CHICAGO, Dec. IA decided sensa.
tion was created here late yesterday
afternoon by the discovery of the bodies
OF beautiful woman and female in.
fant, packed in barrel at the Adams
Express Company office. The woman,s
body was destitute OF all clothing except
stockings. The bodies were taken to a
morgue. The barrel was directed to S.
X. Green d Co., Iowa City, Iowa. The
Truckman who took the barrel to the
Express Office, says he received 1t at a
house near the corner OF Twenty-tourth
street and Wabash avenue, one Of the
most aristocratic portions Of Chicago.
From all appearances the woman had
recently given birth 10 child. There
were few marks on the body, but moth.

ing from the window of the third story
of her residence. The case was not made
public until to-day. 1t appears she had
recently returned from Europe, where
she had encountered a disappointment

board from the steamer, but was pre-
vented.

A new ship Of 1900 tons register, just
launched at Newburyport, Mass, has
been named Brown Brothers, out of conl-
.pliment to the eminent banking firm of
that name in this city. She is to be en-
pl0yed in the novel enterprise OF bring
ing spars from the Oregon forests to
the Eastern markets. This ship has been
constructed with the view to
meeting all the difficulties in
this connection by using extra
fastenings and best and most durable
timber, in order to give strength to the
hull, as the 0rdinary-built vessels are
not strong enough to carry such large
sticks Of timber as will be transported
with safety by the ship Brown Brothers.
The great object in her construction
was to obtain superior strength, and
no expense has been spared in obtain
ing the best materials, and these have
been put together in her construction
| with all the skill known to art that the
desired end might be attained.
Nautical judges pronounce her one OF
| the strongest vessels ever launched in
American waters. She will cost above
$780, 900.

Hunting a Marriage License.


An old, grey-haired, black-skinned
Adonis Of about sixty summers, shufied
into Coroner Maley's Office yesterday
afternoon, and. taking off an old dilapi-
dated plug hat, wiped his face with a
red bandana, and sided up to Shott, the
Coroner's clerk, saying:
"Squiar, you'll have to do some writin'

gloss and freshness Of youth. Thin
hair is thickened, falling hair checked,
and badness often, though not always,
cured by its use. Nothing can restore
the hair where the follicles are de-
stroyed, or the glands atrophied and
decayed; but such as remain can be
saved by this application, and stimu-
lated into activity, so that new
growth of hair is produced. Instead
of fouling the hair with a pasty sedi-
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling off, and
consequently prevent badness. The
restoration of vitality it gives to the
scalp arrests and prevents the forma-
ton of dandruff, which is often so un-
cleanly and offensive. Free from those
deleterious substances which make
some preparations dangerous and inju-
rious to the hair, the Vigor can only
benefit but not harm it. If wanted
merely for HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can be found so desirable.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it does
not soil white cambria, and yet lasts
long on the hair, giving it rich, glossy
lustre, and a grateful perfume.
