The Hot Boom.

The heat of the past five or SIX days
has been unparalleled in intensity for the
time OF year averaging about 81 degrees
IN the shade. This is enjoying August
heat in October, q privilege not usually
vouchsafed to the inhabitants of this lati-
tude. For the time being the customary
order Of things is reversed. Instead of
tuning and fretting about the fuel sup
ply, housekeepers are turning their atten-
ton to the constant replenishing of their
ice boxes and seeking refuge in the sum-
mer kitchen. The summer clothes, sup
posed to have been laid away in quiet
seclusiOn to rest until the return of the
next calendar hot months, have been
taken from the recesses and hiding places
in the closets to decorate and bring light
and airy comfort to the perspiring wearer
The fan is quite as much in vogue
as it was in July. The appetite no long
er Graves for the heavy, hearty food and
oysters and 'sich' are at discount, not
Withstanding we have entered the second
month with an "r'' in it, Flies, bugs, in
sects and "caterpillars innumerable''
are as lively as ever. The croaking of
the frog and the toad is heard abroad in
the land and we all revel in midsummer
night dreams whether our repose is on the
bed, the lounge or the floor. How long
these things shall last We know not but
while they continue it behooyes all to act
as coolly as the torrid condition Of the at
mosphere will admit. ~..sf--.

A Surprised Physician.

3 A DYING PATIENT RECEIVERS THROUGH
THE INTERROGATION OF A HUMBLE GER
MAN.-Some weeks ago Dr. c., a
very reputable and widely-known physi-
clan, living on G. -sreet was called to
attend a very complicated case cfRheum-
atism. Upon arriving at the house
he found man about forty years
of age, lying in a Frustrated and serious
condition with his whole frame danger
ously affected with the painful-disease.
He prescribed for the patient, but the
man continued to grow worse, and on
Sunday evening he was found to be in a
very alarming condition. The knees
and elbows and larger joints were greatly
inhamed and could not be moved. It
was only with extreme difficulty that the
patient could be turned in bed, with the
aid of three or four persons The weight
of the clothing was so oppressive that
means had to be adopted to keep it from
the patients body.
The doctor saw that his assistance
would be OF no avail, and left the house,
he members of the fam lily following him
to the door, weeping. At this critical
hour, leighbor, a poor and humble
German shoemaker appeared to the grief
smitten ones as a saving angel. He had
heard of the despair Of the family, and
now asked them to try his remedy, and
accordingly brought forth bottle of St.
Jacobs Oil. As drowning man will
catch at straws, so the poor wife applied
this remedy; she had no hope, but would
try anything, as matter of duty. The
first application eased the patient very
much; after a few hours they used it
again, and, wonder of wonders, the pain
vanished entirely! Every subsequent APP
plication improved the sufferer, and in
two days he was well and out. When
the doctor called a few days after, he was
indeed surprised; for, instead of corpse,
he found new-made man.-Erchange

The Whe0t Boom

The wheat market on Change yester-
day was wildly excited, and prices adj
vanced 3a5c, in sympathy with Chicago
and other prominent points, and active
speculative demand being noted at all
points. Foreign markets were higher,
but not sufficiently to overcome the pre-
vious margins against shippers from this
ode, Liverpool having advanced only l
penny per GENITAL. Sales were enormous,
aggregating upward Of 10000 bushels.
Peter McGeoch was the principal seller
of new spring for November delivery, the
market opening at 1.1058a1. 1OA, advanc-
ng to 1.13, and closing at l. 1871. Cash
or October was rather dull at discount of
214c, while December sold 115a2c above
November The advance here was due
partly to Chicago, that market leading in
the upward movement. Receipts contin-
lie large and foot up IA, 1000 bushels,
but liberal shipments reduced the stock a
few thousand bushels. Flour was active,
and sales foot up about 1900 sacks or bar
rels, but the terms were not made public
Course grains shared in the buoyancy Of
wheat, and prices advanced 11sa3c per
bushel. The upward movement exhibits
no signs of abating, though the feeling is
very feverish, and many of the bulls are
beginning to sell freely. Money contin-
ues easy, and the banks readily discount
all well secured paper at s per cent. per
annum, which tends to facilitate the up
ward movement of prices, as new capital
continually being invested. The unset
tied condition of European affairs also
tends to strengthen values here.-M1-

THOt Fire Resolution.

The resolution which passed the Board
of Street Commissioners at their last meet
ing, forbidding the fire department to
place any fire steamer Or apparatus dur
ing the progress of fire on the property
of any one without the owners consent,
opens up a new or somewhat startling
question for consideration. Can the oc-
cupation of lot or piece Of ground by a
fire steamer when playing upon a fire be
construed into trespass, and could it be
made a cause of action for damage? If
this question admits of an affirmative
answer our firemen threaten to act care
fully in future at fires so as not to be
made liable for damage done in the dis
charge of their duties. Cases they
say are likely to arise when
to compel the fire department to
run around and get the owners consent
before the steamer could be stationed at
a necessary point, would allow the fire to
make such progress that all efforts to
suppress the flames would be useless.
Then again those who favor the resolu-
ton aver that steamer can do no good
in nine cases out Of ten playing from a
private well or cistern so that to be Of any

To the Exhibitors at the Central Fair for 1879.
At a meeting Of the Central Wisconsin
Agricultural and Mechanical Association
held Oh tuesday evening, October 18th,
the report of the secretary showing
receipts and expenses of the late fair
having been submitted, it was found that
after paying the necessary expenses OF
the exhibition the balance remaining was
insufficient topay more than Is per cent.
OF the awards. 4 1t was there fore resolved
that the Association avail itself of the pub
lished conditions that "Premiums will
be paid from the receipts of the fair, and
III case the receipts are insufficient to pay
them in full, they will be paid pro rata."
Last year the Association paid five hun
dred dollars more than the receipts war
ranted, but it must be clear to all that a
repetition of this course, must before
long bankrupt the Association. The ex-
hibition of 1879 was a complete success
with the exception Of the receipts for adj
mission to the grounds, of which fact
every person in attendance must be fully
convinced. .. Id.
The Association has done everything in
its power to please its friends and patrons
and it is hoped that every fair minded
person will be able to see the justice of It's
action in the present instance. The As
ISOLATION regrets the necessity Of resorting
to the pro rata rule, but it was found to
be the only alternative left Us. ~. II
