A strange disease is attacking the
owszin the town of Palmyra. They are
tricken, and die in from 80 to 60 min

FORT ATKINSON.

this place, died Friday last
Three years ago our readers will re-
member our recording the burglary of DR..
Winslow's house and theft of sum of
money and watch Thursday
of last week one of the gypsies
encamped near this city, brought the
stolen watch to c. B. Tousley for repair
Mr.. Tousley knew the watch as soon as
he had examined it, and it has been iden-
titled by several other parties. The gyp-
sy man states that he obtained it two
years ago, in trade from a man in Madi-
son, and there is no doubt Of the truth Of
his statement. The clue ought to be fol
lowed up, however, and traced out if pos
sible, even if the watch is of small value.
Last week we noticed the departure of
Mrs. M. M. Holmes and her brother,
F. E. Truax, for Durhamville, n. Y, to
attend the funeral of their sister, Mrs.
Harrison Lamb. The Oneida papers
state that Mrs. Lambs death, occurred
from the influence of chloroform, while
undergoing treatment for the fracture or
dislocation of the hip joint.
Farmers will do well not to be in too
great hurry to sell their barley before it
has gone through the sweating process.
Considerable new barley is going to mar

price if allowed to sweat before being sold.
That is what the dealers and brewers tell
us.
