MANY citizens of the town COM
plain of the offensive odor they are
obliged to inhale while coming to
the city. They claim it is caused
by dead hogs, &C., that have been
hauled just outside the city limits
and not buried If this be the case,
the authorities should at once inves-
tigate the facts, and in the future
compel every person hauling of dead
brutes to bury the same deep, which
would be but little trouble in these
holy surroundings.

THERE has been great cry among
the farmers hereabouts against the
wool and flax buyers of Mineral
Point, because they did not pay as
much for the articles mentioned as
the buyers in Darlington were offer
ing The reason is beginning to
develop itself. We know of a farm
er who concluded to take his fax to
Darlington, where was offered 10
cents more on the bushel than in
this city. He was one Of those sus-
picious fellows, and so weighed his
flax before starting. OF course it
was weighed at Darlington, and the
farmer proved to his satisfaction

AUTUMN POETRY From many
poetic gems inspired by that prolific
source of such things, the golden
autumn, we select the following, as
most touching and pathetic, and at
the same time not pointless. The
author has joined the reform club as
q solace for his sadness:
The melancholy days have come,
The saddest olthc year;
little too soon fw whisky hot,
A little too late for beer.

A NOVELTY. The family Of J. w.
Slauson, of Arena, together with a
few friends treated themselves with
a nice dish of ice cream on the 5th
and 9th of October, but the novel
part Of it was the process Of freez-
ing the same. This was done by
hailstones remaining from the storm
of the Goth Of September, having
been left in a huge drift of leaves,
twigs and rubbish 80 thick that the
sun and wind has not had power
enough to melt them up to this date.

Our time-honored citizen, Mr..
Jos. Cartwright, has concluded to
open a jewelry store at Dodgeville.
The departure will be greatly re-
gretted by the many friends of Mr..
and Mrs. G. to be found in Mineral
Point, but we must take consolation
in the fact that they are not so far
away but what social greeting is
available at any time. The county
seat will secure citizen of energy
and perseverance, and one who is
master of his following.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. GA CAL
reporter this evening interviewed
Mr.. Vining, General Freight Agent
of the U. Z. r.. r., who is now in
the city on business connected
with the recent action of the over
land companies regarding the rates
of freights across the continent. Mr..
Vining stated that he had come
here to have q general conference
and exchange of views with
business men on the SUBJ
.ject, with the view of arriving
at some conclusion that will be
satisfactory to all parties con-
cerned. The reporter called his at
teniion to the fact that Gov. Stan
ford had received reply to his tele-
gram to sydney Dillon protesting
against increase of rates and pro-
roply being to the effect that no
action would be taken until an ex-
change of views could be had with
the Railroad authorities at Omaha.
In explanation of the proposed in
crease in rate, Mr.. Viuing stated
that three years ago the railroads
Jumped their rates, making an
average on different classes of dry
goods; that merchants have taken
advantage of that arrange
ment to send all cheap,
availing Themselves of the low
railroad tariff to send valuable
goods overland, and that the pres.
ent increase was with the view of
breaking up that system. He fur
ther stated that he should further
prosecute his efforts to effect ar.
rangemepts with the merchants of
this city, and that a similar
course would be pursued by
the eastern railroad authorities
in New York, and that
it WAS hoped some satisfactory
conclusion might be reached. He
did not, however, hold out the idea
that the newly adopted schedule of
rates would be abrogated; though,
if business men would guarantee
sufficient business to warrant,
n modification would be made,
the object of the Company be-
ing to make such arrangements
as will protect them from
any loss, while desiring to take no
undue advantage Of the mercantile
community. Mr.. Vining will
probably remain here for another
week.

Ganta Monica happenings.

Seven full carloads of people
came down on the Sunday morn
ing train from Los Angeles. It is
estimated that there were not less
than five hundred visitors alto
gether who spent the day at the
beach.
The Anaheim excursionists mum.
bered about three hundred, and
they were q jolly set.
Old Santa Monica, il is said, has
not been so crowded with people
for three seasons past as it IL at the
present time.
Among the new acquisitions to
the tenters on the beach at Old
Santa Monica, are Mr.. Brousseau
and family, who came down Satur-
day fora stay of fortnight or so.
There was very pleasant dance
az the pavilion in Old Santa Moni-
last evening.
Mine host Bayley, of the Ocean
House, has had his establishme ent
so full the past week that he has
been compelled to rent a residence
near by for the accommodation of
guests. There is still room for one
more, however.
The Santa Monica Hotel ran
over to-day, and many who could
not get in were obliged to go else
where for accomm mmodations.
Business is lively about this time
in Santa Monica.
The ladies of the Episcopalian
Church are preparing to hold
estival next Thursday evening.
There will be Presbyterian
festival next Friday evening, the
proceeds to be devoted to making
the final payment on the new
church bell.
We regret to learn that the ex.
cursions to Santa Monica thus far
have not proven successful finan-
cially. A railroad official informed
us that the managers of both the
San Bernardino and Anaheim are
losers by their enterprises.
Last night very high old party
Of twelve young men went out with
the evident intention that they
would not go-ho-home till mor-er-
ming, and they didn't. They liq-
uored up a little and then went
down and took bath in the surf.
Then they liquored up some more
and went and serenaded some peo.
Pile and liquored some more, and
sang and shouted and liquored and
serenaded and go forth, until about
half-past 10 o'clock in the morning
when they went in for another
bath in the surf. When
this second ablution had
been completed it is supposed that
they liquored some more, for, after
serenading the Ocean House, they
all started out In the best of spirits
to walk up to the cailon to the
dance then in progress. They pro-
ceeded in row, each holding his
neighbours arm, and the rank had
thus marched charmingly up the
bluff a way, all singing, when, by
some unaccountable iAiscbance,
the three end men nearest the
ocean tumbled into a wash, falling
n distance of about thirty feet. One
Of the number received a most pain
full cut and confusion about the
right eye, and all were more or less
bruised, but we believe no bones
were broken. The young gentle
men may consider themselves for
tunate that they got off as we'll as
they did. Had they gone off the
bluff, instead of simply landing in
the wash thirty feet down, there
would have been triple funeral in
Santa Monica about day after to-
morrow

INpIANoPLIs, Aug. Eek. Gov.
Hendricks opend the Democratic
campaign last night. He urged
that Gu the result Of the election
for Senator in Indiana this Winter
might hinge The political character
of the United States Senate. He
regarded both Voorhees, and
Harrison, the opposing cam
didate, as able gentlemen.
He proceeded to argue that
Voorhees's financial and political
sympathies we're such as people ap-
proved of; that voorhees, would
properly aud wisely represent the
State. He held views which are
strongly presented in the State
platform. Harrison held contrary
views. The statement made by
Republicans that Democratic sue
cess meant the payment for slaves
ard southern claims, was false, for
such payment would be q violation
of the 18th Amendment. Just
claims and damage TO Unionists in
the South had been paid already,
and would be paid hereafter, but
the Democratic party has been the
economical party. He declared
that the President had no South
ern Policy. His administration
was Incapable OF any. What the
Presioent had Done in the Southern
States the speaker uppIovvd, - -
was good Democratic doctrine.

Cure for Dyspepsia.

Milk and ime-water are now frequent ly prescribed by physicians in cases of dyspepsia and weakness of the stomach, and in some cases are said to be bene- fcial. Many persons who think good bread and milk great luxury frequent ly h esitate to eat it, for the reason that milk will not digest readily; sourness of the stomach will often follow. But experience proves that lime-water and milk are not only food and medicine at an early period of life, but also at later, when, as in the case of infants, the func- tions of digestion and assimilation have been seriously impaired. A stomach taxed by gluttony, irritated by improper food, inhamed by alcohol, enfeebled by disease, or, otherwise unfitted for it's duties-as is shown by the various symp- toms attendant upon indigestion, dys- pepsia, diarrhea, dysentery, and fever will resume it's work, and do it ener- getically, on an exclusive diet of bread and milk and lime water.
 A goblet of cows milk may have four tablespoonfuls of lime water added to it with good effect. The way to make lime water is simply to procure few Jumps of unslacked lime, put the lime in a stone jar, add water until the lime is slacked and of about the consistency of thin cream the lime settles, leaving the pure and clear ime-water at the top. Great care should be taken not to get the lime water too strong. Keep to the direction as to the consistency, and when the water rises pour it off without obtaining any lime. The ime-water is also very good to apply to burns and scalds. In slack. ing the lime, particular care should be taken that none of the particles fly into the eyes.

THE LAND OF NOD.

Far away in the land of Nod,
 Where only in dreams mans foot hath trod, Dwells the slumber king on his shadow throne, Where he patiently sits till day is done. Then he rises and puts his thinking cap on Now, as he thinks, he doth often smile, And he busily mods his head the while; Then the elves of sleep, as he sees them come, Quickly lay hold ot them, one by one, And fly to the homes of earth, tis said, where they place nod on each ones head, HI the eyes can no longer keep open wide; The head, with the weight, turns from side to
 side,
 And little by little doth on them creep The wondrous blessin. of quiet sleep. But ere the grown folks frt 2ose, The kings son, Jack Nod, pn lis tip toes, First comes to the children, the cunning elf, Ana he brings the sand man as we'll as himself Then the poor, wee people rub, rub their eyes, unni gentle sleep takes them by surprise, And they never can tell of what they can think Just the minute before their last blinky wink Sometimes in the day time, so am told, ms same Jack Nod, so cunning and bold, Throws dust in folks eyes, the saucy chap, Which makes them take what is called nap

At President MacMahOn's Reception.

A sub-lieutenant, recently from St. Cyr, was leaning against door, looking timid and sad.
 "Why are you not dancing ?" said the President to him.
 "Ah," said the young soldier, "I have been refused; made an offer to dance, but was rejected, alas p
 President-Who was the lady, may I ask?
 The officer found her out.
 President-Listen to me, young man. In this world you must look round if you do not wish to fall down and break your nose. Without being introduced there is no use in presenting yourself as dancer to the wife of Marshal of France. That lady is Mime. MacMahon, who never dances, but will ask her to make an exception in your favor and dance with you tonight.
 All of which occurred.
