fun,n oourt,

Friday evening". while the court
of Esq. Riordan was In the midst Of
= jury trial . young man from the
country looked in ct the door and
seemed to be in . quandary % to
what he was to do, or who he wanted
to interview. One Of the attorneys
employed In the case on trial noticing
the poor fellow and supposing some
thing was wanting, enquired Of the
boy who he wished to see. "Well,'
was the reply, II want to see the fell
low who marries people"
He was invited in, and the inquiry
was made a. to where the expected
bride was. "Oh," said he. "she'a
down stairs"
"Bring her in," said the attorney,
"and now, Squire" said he, 'let us
adjourn court and you make these
people happy a. soon ~ You can"
Court was adjourned, the parties
invited into the next room, the license
produced, the couple ordered to
stand up and join right hands. The
mother of the groom here objected,
said that the boy was not Of age, and
while she admitted that the intended
wife should have been married long
ago, she forbade tho ceremony and
told the boy II he contaminated the
marriage he should never darken her
doors again.
The Squire, holding in his hand
the license issued by the authority
Of the State Of Iowa through one Of
its authorized officers ordered the
couple to join hands and up went
both arms of the happy couple again.
By this time the jury had formed .
ring around the pair and the ceremo-
ny, in the usual form, was gone
through with and the couple pro-
nounced man and wife. The old la
dy stormed and scolded, the young
man was inexorable, the bride and
groom looked at each other as though
the contract had been fulfilled and
the bride meandered down stairs.
The attorney remarked to him that
1t would be we'll for him to 60 with
his bride.
"Oh, no." said he, 81 don't have to.
This business 10 settled /; she goes her
way and I 60 mine"
The mother during al this time
was standing In the rear Of the party,
dancing Jig and blind with anger.
As soon as the excitement subsidized
court was called to order and the
case of the city W Allie Chambers
was proceeded with. No cards.

Tom Harrington has pet up at
the water-power that 10 . real nice
thing. We saw it, and though it 10
. very small thing, yet it is big in re-
suits. Said Tom, I want to show
you something, and he led us down
to the large Waterman leading from
the pump house, where it spans the
tail race and there we found o three
quarter inch water pipe, say two
feet in length, that. pierced the large
main, and on the end of it was an
iron, oval shaped box, just about the
size and shape of large turnip.-
Within this turnip is little brass
turbine wheel, which Tom made,
three inches in diameter.
Tom turned little gauge cock and
let the water ON to tho wheel, and as
near as we can Judge 1t made about
5000 revolutions minute. In our
own eyes it was little wonder.
We asked Tom:how about the util-
izstion Of that wonder and he said :
You see we are going to put IN new
large Turbine wheel down along
side the pump house, and those men
there are sinking the pit for it. Soon
we shall be troubled with water in
the pit and l am going to gear large
pump to this little Turbine wheel and
keep the pit dry Of water.
Said Tom, it would cost hundred
dollars to keep the water out of that
pit with a pump worked by hand and
propose to make this little Turbine
earn . hundred dollars in the mex,
two weeks, Anybody who has seen
the hands at work pumping to keep
the pit dry for the wheel at the Corn
Starch Mill, can have some idea of the
utilitarian qualities of Toms minis.
turc Turbine wheel. Tom added
"that little wheel will run all the pres
ses in the COURIER office" twill be
running the pump sometime during
the week.

the earnings Of the Iowa division OF
the c., B. & q. for the same period,
which tho Gazette stated was that Of
the whole. line, was only $4,29O, $780,
IS.
In order to show the unfairness of
this comparison we obtained the off,
cial report of the earnings Of the c.,
B. & @. for the year ending June 30,
1873, and the amount reaches the sum
Of $l3, ,425, ,O29.9l, an amount enough
larger than the showing made by the
Rock Island road to leave no doubt
whatever which is the "Boss."
The earnings Of the c., B. 8
@. for tho eight months ending
August 81, were $S,996,425
which exceeds the eaanings OF the
c., r. I. & P. for the whole year.
When the comparison if fair
ly made the Rock Island road
comes out far behind and by
the way the e., B. & Q. is increasing its
business this year, we would
not be surprised II it's earnings
will double that Of its rival next year.
There are quite a number of other
statistics that could be procured that
would make a comparison look still
worse than the G., r. l. & p, but we
