An Old Citizen.
From the Detroit Free Press.

RON tue Detroit Free Press.
Yesterday, as an old citizen was mailing n ITO
and remarked that" h-o-wz-e"was not the right way
to spell house"
How long have you lived in Detroits" asked the
old cit zen, scowling sAvagely.
"Fiiteen years. was the reply.
We'll, I've lived here for thirty" continued the
old man, land guess know how t. epelI as well
You do
Years ago, when Alton was cursed with
''old citizens" an exhibition of the old
citizens spirit was made, which was abun-
dainty characteristic. At a fire an old cit.
izen was trying to remedy the chronic dis
organization of the FIRE Department by
coupling together line of hose. He got
two female butts together, and was sweat
ing over them when newcomer approach
ed with advice, and the following CONVEX.
sation ensued:
Ne,c- COmer-"l on can't couple hose III II at way
These butts won't go together. You must turn one

The newcomer retired, the fire burned
out without interruption, and the old citizen
retired from the scene grumbling at the
audacity Of men who attempted to set
their opinions up against those of ''old and
prominent residents"

Fire in Moline.

About midnight, last night, in Moline
a fire was discovered in barn belonging
to Mr.. James Shaw, grocer, situated on
Lynde and Water streets. Everything
was burned, including two horses, valued
at 5000. The total loss is about $500. No
insurance
The barn of Mr.. Henry Carson, adjoin-
ing, was also damaged to the amount Of
about 5000. No insurance.
There are several stories in circulation
as to how the fire started, but nothing GER.
tain is known. The town is full of tramps
and dead beats, and two were seen hang.
ing around the barn last evening, and they
are probably the ones who started the fire,
having crawled into the barn to sleep.
The fremen were promptly on hand, but
could not save the barn. There was very
little wind at the time, or larger fr'
would probably have occurred, the building
in that vicinity being mostly frame.

The Robes Recovered.

Mondays ARGUS gave an account of the
arrest of one Gard Barker, in Whiteside
county, by Marshal Halves, for stealing a
suit of clothes, and his incarceration in
Jail. His arrest gave the marshal an op-
portunity to discover what he had always
suspected in regard to the larceny of three
wolf robes from Wright's stable last win
ter. belonging to Homer Lowry, Sam Kea-
tor and Charlie Wright. The robes were
stolen by this fellow Barker and another
party, and traced to Chicago, where they
we're recovered and returned to this city
and their owners to-day. Barker was en-
ployed at Kerr's stable at the time. II is
probable that he will now be employed by
the state for awhile.

Needs reconstruction.

Our post Office needs reconstructing.
We doubt if a mail is ever distributed
there as it should be. Every day we
hear some complaint about mail matter
being placed in the wrong box, to the very
great annoyance of those to whom letters
and papers are directed. Frequent cases
of the kind have occurred in our own box
for the last year or two, and frequent con-.
plants have been made, but we have
avoided making the matter public in the
hope that it would be corrected,-but ii
gets no better very fast. Monday evening
six letters directed to different parties were
put in Geo. Wagner's box This was not
unusual, except as tonumbers. Mr.. Jack
son will do we'll to reconstruct that Office
unless he wants these complaints to take
form and reach headquarters.

Thanks.

THE ARGUS thanks Mai. Fl. c. Con-
nelly, of this city. for a complete bound
set of the Congressional Globe and Ap
pendir for 1872. During all the six
years of Mr.. Hawley 10 congress he never
sent document, a newspaper or pam.
phlet of any sort to this Office, and we
doubt if he did to any Democratic paper
in the district, for we never saw an acknowl
edgement of anything Of the sort in any
Democratic paper. though such notices did
occasionally appear in the Republican
papers. Mr.. Hawley evidently believed
that documents paid for out of the COM
mon fund of the people were the private
property of Republicans.

we'll for housekeepers to know that DIR.
Prices Cream Baking Powder is free from
these adulterants, hence the purest and
most economical. AS two teaspoonfuls go
as far as three teaspoonfuls OF the heavy

told, required that they should be half an

measure the broken pipes along in front of
Zeis's and of Star Block and see how the
contract was filled. Some of the pipes are
! an inch, some {, and in front of Zeis's is
one that is only inch thick. Is anybody

accepting lot ofimperfect, thick and thin,

CRoUP.-Almost daily We are called
upon to chronicle the death of some loved
one, by this dreadful disease, which often
takes its victim away from loving parents,
with only very short notice. Every mother
should supply herself with Goes Cough
Balsam, for it is no exaggeration to say it
will cure ninety nine cases in every one
hundred, if taken in season. There are very
many mothers who will tell you they owe
the life of some dear one to this wonderful
medicine. One very desirable quality is,
that it leaves no bad effect, it being perfectly
harmless. In cases of cough, hoarseness,
or tickling in the throat it has no equal.
