terville to his son, ]. II. Carr, attend
ing school at this place. Time pas
sed on, and his son not receiving the
order, the matter was investigated,
and the p. NJ here found it had been
paid, aud sending to Washington for
the order, found it signed, John
Henry Carr In the meantime, know
ing that there we're two J. II. Cars
here, the 2. M. asked each one if he
had received the money, and received
denials from each, and then took E
sworn statement from them to the
effect that they had never signed the
described order. or received the mo.
ney thereon; and then sent the pa
pers to Capt. j. E. Stuart, of Iowa
City, special mail agent, who soon
came down and proceeded to work
the case up. The second time he
came he called upon the J. II Carr,
laborer on the Rock Island road,
and by careful maneuvering, for
which he was noted, soon got on the
track Of the very thing he wanted,
and finally in further conversation
with Carr, broke him down, and he
confessed that he got the money and
got up defence that it was sent to
him by his cousin, and exhibited a
letter and envelope, said to be the
ones the order came in. This neces-
STATED visit to Centerville, and here
he found out all he wanted, and last
Tuesday he returned, with u. S.
District Attorney Seaton Of keokuk,
aud arrested John n. Carr, and in de-
fault of 81 900 bail. he now reposes
in Hotel du Hetherington. Csp..
Stuart deserves great credit for his
skill in working up this case. for at
first it looked like there was no show
at all t, unravel the skein, but the
Capt. demonstrated his peculiar fit
ness for his work, BY the promptncss
with which he worked it out. The
government is lucky in having such
prompt and efficient officials. We
remember once when he and
agent Furay where after fellow,
and we remarked in the paper, that
if Stuart was as good as the other,
the 'old boy could not get away
from them, and we are willing to
vouch for Stuart now. An evil doer
will do we'll to steer clear Of him if
he wishes to thrive. The man who
fools with Uncle Sans mail service,
is foollng with something that is very
complicated, but which is so beauti-
fully adjusted that there is no evad-
ing final retribution.

Explosion OF n Barrel OF Sour.
krOut.

About o'clock on Sunday night,
when the storm was at its height, .
number of the inhabitants Of the
"Hill" were startled by report re-
sembling salvo of artillery. High
above all the din of dashing rain and
detonating claps of thunder it rose,
and for few moments it seemed to
those that heard it as If the judgment
day had come. In a few minutes
some of the most daring darted out
through the tempest in the direction
whence the awful noise proceeded,
and encountered one Of our German
citizens shouting at the top OF his
voice, like one crazed:
20 mein sauer-kraut! Mein sauer-
krautm
All endeavors to pacify him we're
unavailing, and while some took
charge of the miserable man others
entered the building. Here scene
presented itself that completely beg
gars description. On the lounge sat
the "frau," picture Of despair, en-
deavoring to "unkrout" her new
dress, while three children, nearly
covered with sauer- kraut, were flying
about the apartment taking handsful
of the stuff out Of their mouths, noses
and eyes. Every article Of furniture
in the room was displaced. and over
the door and all around was kraut--
sauer- kraut.
1t soon transpired that large bar
relful of krout had been brought up
from the cellar TO the fire to be
thawed out, and the head being close
ly nailed on, the gas generated had
no vent, and exploded with terrific
force, bursting the barre! and seat
tering the contents in every direction.
The entire apartment was for the
time being converted into 4 strange
phantasmagoria. From every piece
of furniture hung festoons of sour.
krout like Florida moss in Southern
forests. The superintendent OF the
gas works gives it as his opinion that
the catastrophe was caused by "the
oxygenated xylophorium being pre-
cipitated anonymously on the cate
gorical section of the elliptical cylin-
der, thereby causing sudden rode
dendron on the homogeneous con-
glomerated mass, which caused the
saucr-krout to explode" We are
pretty much Of the same opinion as
to his conclusion, though We don't
exactly agree with his premises.
We sympathize with our unfortunate
friend in his loss, and hope that it
may prove warning to others under
similar circumstances. - 4driaa

A Money Order Thief Caught. .

The stealing of post Office money

be so we'll planned that its detection

SACRAMENTO, May 2O,-Judge
B. F. Ferris, a prominent citizen
of Oakland, committed suicide
about five o'clock this morning by
jumping from the upper deck OF
the steamer AnaGdOr into the Sa-
cramentO river as the boat was
nearing this city. Before taking
the fatal leap he had tied his legs
firmly together with a handker-
chief and swallowed almost the
entire contents of a 8 ounces vial
Of launadum. He left an affec-
tionate letter to his wife and
daughter at Oakland, announc-
ing his intention of committing
self-destruction. The letter also
clearly indicated that the unfor-
tunate man was insane.

in the General Land Office, which
which is to twenty-five, feet long
and seventeen feet wide, Mr.. Ros-
ser, the chief draughtman, has
under his supervision the con-
struction of a Centennial Atlas,
which includes every State and
Territory in which the land sys-
tenn is now in operation, making
in all eighteen. The artistic
coloring and typographical beau

that has ever yet been issued
from the office, the principal fea-
lures of the map being the Indian
reservations, the land grants and
all the different explorations. The
work does great credit to the
