a HUNDRED AND THREE YEARS OLD.
Mrs. Harriet Hawley, who resides at
No. DOT Roxbury street, Boston High
lands, on Saturday celebrated the 1O3d
anniversary of her birth, which occur
red in Stratham, N. H, Aug. %, 1773.
Her father was lothian Rollins, and he
was a lieutenant in the battle of Bunker
Hill, standing beside Gen. Warren when
he was cut down. The Traveller saws ::
''She is in possession of all her faculties
cheerful, and even numerous in cor.ver-
sation, and grateful that her life has been
prolonged to this day. Mrs. Hawlev
came to Boston when young woman.
and was employed as cook in several of
the aristocratic families of that dav
She is still able to prepare her own food
though not compelled to do so, On
Wednesday last, in the absence of the
family, she cooked dinner without as
sistance. She never attended n theatre
or any other place of amusement. and
never rode In "a street-car. She received
numerous callers, and many brought
gifts IN remembrance of the many deeds
OF kindness performed by the old LADY
In days gone by.

A MODEL W1FE's LETTER love,
not content to bask in the sunshine with
out an umbrella handy in case of rain,
finds fit expression in the following let
ter, which the Danbury News has di-
vulged
Ny DEAR HUSBAND Il got here last
night all safe, and was met at the station
by uncle and aunt. They were so glad

We had hot rolls for breakfast this morn
ing, and they were so delicious. I want
you to be so happy while am here

hour. Has Mrs. Or brought back

AN Iowa FABLE.-J. @. Stone and
Wesley G. Hobbs are the opposing cam
didates for Congress in the First Dis
trict of Iowa. Concerning them the
following fable is narrated by The Bur-
ington Hawk-Eye: ga vain Jackdaw,
growing discontinued with the plain
plumage of second lieutenant that he
had worn for six months, found a pair
of Captnin's shoulder-straps that had
been cast aside, and clapped them on
his own shoulders. 'They will help
me, I believe he said, sin my expected
fight to Congress-. But scarcely had
he attempted to rise from the ground
when the weight of his borrowed plum
age bore him down, and his jeering
companions threw Stone at him that
knocked off all his borrowed finery, and
buried him under nearly 5000 majority
Alas, he sighed, as he closed his eyes
in death, had been content to have
hoped and cawed around in the Legis-
latire, I might have lived long and died
a Justice of the Peace, but now my own
vanity has played Hobbs with me.

Centaur
Linin1 ents.

so nearly perfect the recipes these wonderful
pain soothing and healing Centaur Liniments, that
confidently say they will dUeriate any pain
arising from flesh, bono muscle arrangements.
We do not pretend that they will mend broken leg
ereriate boils but even in such cases they will
reduce the inflammation and stop the pain Nor can
we guarantee the proper results where the body is
poisoned By acAfsIey Temperance is necessary
proper physical, mental condition.
THE WHITE CENTAUR LINIMENT is particularly
adapted to all of Rhuematisn, Lnm5ago, Neu-
raIga Eryspeias, Itch, D,ains, Chillblians, Cuts,
Bruises stnss poisons, scalds sciatica, Weak Back
Pains in the side, Wounds, Weeping Snews. Burns,
Frosted Feet Palsy ache, Tooth-ache, Head ACHE
Ulcers Old Sores Broken Breasts, Sore Nipples Sore
Threat, Group, Dipthcria,. etc. The most OF these
complaints the Centaur Lnment will cure; all of
them it will benefit. 1t will extract the poison from
bites and stings and will end scaids with
out a scar The following is but sample of thous-
and similar testimonials:
"ANrIocH Ill, Dec. l, 1874.
''My wife has, for long time been terrible suf-
ferer from Rheumatism. She has tried many physi-
Clans and many remedies. Tine Gully thing which has
given her relief Is Centaur Imminent. am rejoced
W. II RING, Postmaster
1t is undisputable fact that the Centaur Lini-
ments are performing cures before affected by
any preparation in exiatence,-like Chronic Rheumu-
tism of thirty gears standing, strengthening fingers
joints which had been stiff for six years, taking
the soreness from burns &c.
One dollar, fifty cents, invested i'll &c. taur
LIniment will be within reach solen accident
curs and will DO good than any amount of
money paia for medical attendance. When physic-
ians are called they frequently this Liniment,
and of course charge several prices for it.
The Yellow Centaur Liniment
is adapted the tough skin, muscles and flesh of the
animal creation. Its effects upon of
SPAWN Sweeny Windmill, Big-IIead and Poll Evil
are little less than marvellous.
Messrs j. Mcclure Co., Druggists, corner Elm
and Front Streets, Cincinnati, O., say:
"Tn neghborhood number of Transfers
using the Centaur Liniment. They pronounce it SUI
peror to anything they nave ever used We sell as
high as four to five dozen bottles per month to
of horses and mules'
We have volumes of testimonials describing
of Sprains, Kicks, Calls, PollEvil, Dig Head, and
even Founders, which little less than marvels.
No owner of an animal afford to be without q
bottle of Centaur Liniment, which any day may
prove worth twenty times its cost.
Sold everywhere, but prepared only at the
Laboratory of j. 3. Rose & Co.,

A BONANZA INDEED. San Jose
(Cal.) Patriot, of Aug. IL, says: One
of the workmen engaged in excavating
for the foundation of Cal Martins new
building on First street, near the express
Office, this morning, struck his spade
against substance not usually met in
the loan here Astounding, and moment
later the deliver brought to light the neck
of huge earthen jar, of very primitive
style. This vessel, which is now on ex-
hibition at Georges saloon, is about the
size of lager beer key, and, when I'M
corked by its lucky diseoverer, was found
to be full of solid gold nuggets and dust
as pure as ever came from Dutch Flat
or Sacramento. How much the treasure
trove amounts to is not yet ascertained,
but the generous discogerer felt that
there was enough in it to make himself
and dozen comrades comfortable for
the rest of their days, he having at once
divided the spoil with them. When the
gold shall have been weighed, banker
on Ell Dorado street remarked that he
thought it would realize at least half a
million. This was the cause of the rush
of the people to the new mine to-day,
and hundreds offered their services to
Mr.. Martin to dig the balance of his eel
lars for what they can make. An alder
man went so far as to tender bonus for
this privilege, and others made equally
extravagant propositions, but whether
they will be accepted or not we are I'M
able to say. At last accounts the city
constabulars were stationed in front of
the diggings to keep the mob from un-
dermining adjacent buildings in the
search for more jugs of the metal. The
pot found is supposed to have been bur-
led by an old alcade, who lived here in
the middle of the last century.

LUCKY OIL sPEOULATORs.
How Fortunes are Made in a Minute.

PIrrsBURe, Aug. 3O.-The excite
ment in oil circles is still undated, and
Duquesne way to-day is alive with deal
ers. It is rumored that there is giant
ring bolstering up the price OF oil, and
that before many days the bottom
will fall completely out. Others deny this
and say the advance is the legitimate de-
raand of German brokers, who, IN antlc-
ipation of a still further rise are buying
freely, and now find the production in
no way sufficient to meet the demand.
However, be this as it may, reports are
in circulation of immense profits and for
tunes some operators made during the
past week. DR.. Hostetter, of bltters
fame, it is stated, held personally $780,
OG0 barrels, on which he cleared two dol
lars per barrel a number of operators
here who held 10000 barrels sold yester-
day at profit of three dollars and thirty
cents per barrel. Schriver, of Oil City,
closely connected with the pipe lines, Las
cleared, it is said, during the past week
$500, 900. Thum & Co., brokers, who
hold large quantity OF low-prieed oil,
are reported to have cleared on its sale
upward of 800, 900. One broker here
has As, 900 barrels VIII ich cost him about
81 per barrel He still refuses to let it
go at 81. Another gentleman bought
quite low, some time ago, paying about
80 cents, and sold at S4,15. Another
transaction, much larger, was that OF a
dealer who sold 5000 at $50, for which
he paid SIS cents, but was afraid the mar
ket would collapse. Everybody III the
oil region who had any cash on hand
seems to have invested when the rise
commenced and were made happy. At
Oil City, one of the spectators is
about S75, 900 ahead, and several others
nearly or quite as much. Many of them
count their profits realized by tens of
thousands, and a few of them by any
thing less than thousands. A large
number of outsiders, who rarely if ever
have anything to do with the market,
have been induced to take a chance and
have realized good profits. Young men
with limited capital and board bills to
pay have purchased calls at prices which
they little expected the market to reach
and have realized profits ranging from
$50 to $1,000. 1t is safe to say of the oil
exchange that there was never scene
of so much excitement in three consec-
utive days. At Titusville it was the
same. Geo. A. Chase went to the ex-
change in the morning, and came out
Mt night with 81 200 more money than
he entered with. Chief of Police Rouse
made $3.50 net during the past three
days. Policeman Kane is worth 81, 800
more than one week ago. A boy put
$40 in the hands of broker to be used
with other money, and in two days time
drew out 5000. Some of the dealers
and brokers might report something
large. One Titusville operator since
Friday morning last has made 5000;
another $4,000 and another $50, 900.
Others have made various sums from
$4,000 to $4,000. VIII prices stick, is
now the absorbing conundrum to oper-
ators in this city and residents of the oil
regions. The fluid has already reached
a giddy height, but the next "a hours
may see q wonderful change in its
figure.

To PRESERVE PEARs.-Take pears not
quite ripe and peel off the skins. Pre-
pare syrup with three quarters of a
pound of sugar to each pound of fruit.
Melt it and boil for an hour, removing
all the scum that rises. Put in the pears
and let them boil for ten minutes. or
just long enough to soften a little; Then
take out and cover tightly with paper
wet in whiskey alcohol, and cover with
another paper placed over the mouth of
the jar.
