THEY have sounded the alarm. ChdSe's
Chronicle says: When such mighty efforts
are being made as at present by the Demo-
Gratis in favor of fusion, it is time every true
Greenbacker became alarmed. Every issue
OF Pillsbury's Standard comes to us freighted
with arguments in favor of fusion. Uncle
Solon always said-'Oily Eben must be kept
out of the Greenback ranks but now Oily
Eben runs the Greenback party and is kick
ing Uncle Solon out.

Last Friday night, about II O'Clock, Mrs.
Julia Green, living near the quarries of the
Hallowell Granite Co., was awakened by
noises about her premises. Hastily dressing,
she proceeded to see what the trouble was and
discovered that two men had succeeded in get
ting into her barn, and were making off with
a cow. Mrs. Green had no idea of losing her
cow in that way, and Immediately gave chase.
The mon ran down the road leading to they
Forks until they came to piece of woods,
where, leaving the COW, they took to the bush.
Mrs. Green secured the animal and returned
to the house.
A Republican campaign club has been
formed at Augusta, called the Davis Cor

The great success of Pitchers Castoria is be-
cause of its power to assiY,iIate the food in the
stomachs of children. Thus, sour cure, vomiting,
wind-colic and diarrh@a are prevented. Castoria
contains neither mineral, morphine, nor alcohol.
Unlike Castor Oil it is as pleasant to take as
honey, and unlike narcotic Syrups it is harmless.
It allays fevershness, and is death to worms When

Mack Durham, the subject of this nara,
tive, may justly be called the boss browbeat-
er of the Fifth street boarding house fend.
he has earned the title, and it were unkind
to deprive him of the lustre to be derived
from wearing it. A warrant was issued for
his arrest yesterday which will require him
to step up to the Captains Office and settle.
He has called down upon his devoted head
the walls of woman's wrath and is likely to
experience the full weight of her indignant
scorn. i.
Mrs. Martha Wright, the woman in cues.
ton, conducts a boarding house on Fifth,
near Robert street, and the trouble arose re.
garding the settlement of an unpaid board
bill. A few weeks since Durham ensconsed
himself under the roof tree of the Wright
mansion as regular bcarder, alleging that
he was In the employ of the St. Paul, Min
neapolis & Manitoba railroad company. he
brought with him a.woman whom he intro
duced as his wife, but the queer conduct of
the couple led the lady to suspect that all
was not as it should be.
Investigations were made by Mrs. Wright,
upon the conclusion of which she demanded
her money and ordered Dunhan from the
house, unbraiding him for endeavoring to
bring disrepute upon her business. The
scene took place night before last when
Dunham was ordered to pay his bill and
leave at the imminent peril of feeling the
weight of a cowhide. He thereupon, it is
alleged, seized his landlady and proceeded
to wiring her neck; throwing her upon the
floor in harsh manner and threatening tc
