But the gentleman from New York
Mr.. ChittendeD1 declares with great
vehemence that the greenback was
merely q debt payable on q day not
named; that the resumption law made
it payable January l, 1879; and that TO
repeal that law and change the day OF
payment so fixed is downright repudi-
alton. Mr.. Speaker, if the gentleman's
statement be true that the greenback
was payable on day not named, they
were payable on demand. Then the
resumption act postponing payment

Under the heading of ''A word to
Assessors an exchange has the following
to say: There has heretofore been such
g total disregard of law and official oaths
on tile part of town assessors, that the
Legislature keeps tightening up on
those officers, until this year it is quite
evident that unless they observe the law
and assess all property at its full cash
value, The courts may find something
to do, by way of furnishing assessors for
perjury. It will be much better to obey
the law this year; and let it be done in
all the towns, as it certainly will be ia
some of them in this county.

the brides cake and beautiful boquets
that adorned the table, the old gentle
man brought forth some wine of his own
manufacture, in which, after appropri-
ate remarks, the assembled guests drank
to the health of the aged couple. The
rest of the day passed pleasantly in re-
pairing the golden wedding with the
wedding day fifty years ago when the
future seemed all golden and at an
early hour the company, with many
kind wishes, took their leave and separ-
ate homes. Mr.. Markham was born in

GIVING special attention TO chronic
diseases, and having heightened ex-
perience in their treatment, Drs. Price
& Brewer readily discern the causes of
disease and the proper treatment for
their removal. It is the universal testi-
mony of those who have sought Drs.
Price 81 Brewers advice, that they are
candid in what they say, and that they
do not encourage the making of large
doctors bills unless there is good ground
to hope for benefit from their treatment.
If skill is proved by success, the Drs.
Price & Brewer possess it. On Thurs

HARD TO BEAT.-On Saturday last,
Messrs Tillson & Shimek, proprietors
o. the Clipper City Carriage Works,
displayed in front OF their saiesroom on
York street a nu nber of vehicles of their
production which were examined by
many good judges and pronounced A.
No /. Among others were two three
spring phaetons, made for Messrs. JOS.
Duvall and ". Stransky, of Kewaunee,
both of which were perfect in point of ex-
ceilence of material used, durability and
finish, and the closest examination failed
to show flaw or defect. A three-spring
top buggy also attracted much attention
from the perfection OF the iron-work
upon it, and in all other respects it fully
equalled the higher priced carriages of
Eastern manufacture. Messrs. Tillson
& Shimelk also have on exhibition III
their salesroom some very handsome
platform wagons which are just the thing
for Transporting light freight or feur or
sig persons and must be seen to be APP
preciated. They are now turning out
work which is credit to the city and
is evidence of the fact that there is no
occasion for going abroad to purchase
anything in their line. They should be
heartily supported in their effort to do
first class work, and undoubtedly Will be.

The Milwaukee Sentinel of Monday

THE Milwaukee Sentinel of Monday
contains the following:
On Saturday Corner Kuepper was
notified that Frederick Poser, resident
on Buffalo street, had died suddenly
under circumstances that required an
official determination of the cause. Ac-
cordlngly, Coroner Kuepper summoned
jury and viewed the remains early yes
terday forenoon. 1t was deemed advis-
able to order post mortorl examination
and to give the doctors ample time, the
lnduest was adjourned until 1890 this
forenoon. The deceased was well known
in business circles through his connec-
ton with the old-time hardware house
of Haney SC Co., and more recently as
one of the employees of Suelhohn & See
field, dealers in carriage and wagon goods.
He came to this country from Bremen
and settled in Manitowoc. served during
the war tor the Union, and then became
a resident of Milwaukee. He had been
out of employment for over year, and
this had preyed on his feelings so that
he really became an object of the warm
est sympathies of his relatives. Toward
the close of last week, however, he was
fortunate enough to secure an engage
ment, and to his citation over his good
luck his death is attributed, the reaction
proving fatal. The sonin-law in charge
of the funeral arrangements declares that
he died of joy. Poser leaves large
family of wife and children, most of the
latter grown up and able to care for
themselves.
Many of our citiz ems will remember
the subject of the above He was for
number of years engaged in the hotel
business here.
