How to Recover IA Lost Watch.

NN"'''-'(
Horace Wedge, of Long Hill, Bridge
port, wen: out shooting recently, and re-
turned at night, after tramp covering
several miles of ground. After his return
home he put his hand in his pocket for
his watch, and found it was missing. He
then remembered that at Stepney Depot,
earlier in the day, both he and his com
panion had pulled out their watches and
compared them with the depot clock; but
this was worth nothing as an indication
for finding the lost property, as they have
tramped weary round since then. That
or the following night he dreamed that
he saw his watch lying near beach tree,
in a run east of Long Hill, where they
had killed couple of birds, and so vivid
WAS the dream that the following day he
resolved to go and take look for the
watch. He found the tree he saw in his
dream without difficulty, and, lying near
it, just as he pictured in his dream, lie
found the missing watch, safe and sound.

ny This Drought.

The Ohio River is lust now in a very
low stage of water. Of late years, this
once fine river has exhibited symptoms
of becoming all but useless for navig ttion.
Some portions of this State, Ohio, Indi-
ana, Kentucky, and other sections of this
country from which the river draws it's
supplies. have been visited with periodi-
cal drouths for some years past. At the
present time, the Sangamon River, which
steamboats, used to ascend as far as
Springf I'D, the capital of this State, has
scarcely enough water in its bed to sup
ply the Inhabitants of the latter city with
That necessa y fluid. This tendency of
the interior Of the continent to become so
dry as to seriously threaten vegetation is
one that the General Government should
inquire into. The reason given for the
extreme drouth, which some seasons as
sumes an alarming aspect, is the cutting
down of the natural forests of the coun-
try and the cultivation of soil. By the
former, the earth ceases to retain mois-
ture; by the latter the rains and dews are
quickly absorbed, or are carried off by
drainage. The drouth question will
eventually become one of serious interest
to the entire country, especially to the
regions west Of the Mississippi. The
planting of trees should be encouraged,
and those already growing should be pro-
tected. Some Of the Western States have
already passed laws TO encourage arbori-
culture. To be effective, however, such
laws should be general over the whole
country

A SINGULAR CASE,
A Woman Whose Husband is in
Prison for Her Murder Said to be
Lewiston Mel Journal.l

Lewiston (Me.) Journal.l
A month or two ago we published the
results of the investigations by Captain
Hillman Smith, our City Marshal, in re-
gard to the statemen. of convict in the
Maine State Prison, that he had seen
Lizzie Lowell alive since the time at
which she was generally supposed to have
been murdered by her husband. James
Lowell, now in the State Prison for the
crime 1t will be remembered that the
couvict's statement was strengthened by
the affidavits of respectable lady and
gentleman, of Livermore, in this county,
and letters from H. Ostrander, an East
s lginaw (Mich.) detective. Detective
Ostrander thinks he has sure case and
is still at work trying to unravel it. City
Marshal Smith has received the following
letter from him:
H. Smith, City Marshal, Lewiston:
l have just seen gentleman who says
he knows Lizzie Lowell. I showed him
the picture, and he recognized it as the
person. He says she is In Chicago with
AL. Sutherland. Fl. OsTRANDER.
Marshal Smith has corresponded with
the Superintendent of Police of Chicago,
and the case is being investigated as
thoroughly as possible under the circum-
stances. "Al. Sutherland" is the same
man mentioned by the previous wit
nesses. Mr.. Ostrander is private detec-
tive. He can make nothing out of the
case unless he produces Lizzie Lowell and
appeals to the State for payment of his
services Marshal Smith thinks that il
Ostrander did not believe that Lizzie
Lowell is alive, he would not spend one
minutes time on the case. If, as is prob
able, it proves a case of mistaken iden'
tity, it is very remarkable one.

hotilla Of pleasure boats. Presently a
stalwart form in Aannels WAS by me, and
after some little waiting another man
came up. Now these handsome and
atfable young fellows, city friends, had
given me to understand that they had
bought boat, and, giving me very lib

had intimated that any evening they
would row me anywhere. The boat was
a beautiful boat, somewhat light, but
