Mr.. Saddler is taking out the parti-
tons in his store in order to make room for
his new stock of goods now on the way
here.
Experience has taught the junior Bull
LETIN man that it costs from two to three
i dollars to let little old mule run at large
within the city limits if the marshal finds
it out.
The household goods of Mr.. Peter
Neff were removed yesterday from Ohio
levee to Mr.. Neff's new residence on
Twentieth street

rear of Alexander County bank, and next
month will commence the erection OF a
brick business house, 2sx75, two stories
high, fronting on Eighth street.
Fourteenth street, back of Washington
avenue, has been again repaired; that is, it
has been scraped up out of the cutters, as
it were, and thrown in heap along the
middle. The work of repair upon the
streets generally, prosecuted vigorously
now, would be hailed with pleasure by the
people and would, since the earth is yet
damp with the late rain, prove lasting.
st. Joseph's Lore,to Academy for
young ladies will open on the first of Octo.
Der. The new buildings will then be COM
pleted and furnish ample room for boarders.
The school is delightfully."- situated on the

AT about noon, yesterday, John Harris,

some time ago by another negro named
Hays, breathed his last at his home, on
Seventeenth street, between Commercial
avenue and Poplar street. He died from
the effects of the wounds Hays inflicted
upon him. His murderer will probably
have preliminary examination to-day.
News from Long Branch yesterday
morning was as follows; "The President
passed an unusually good night, his sleep
being uninterrupted except occasionally to
enable him to take nourishment. The sup
puration from the parotid has almost en-
tirely ceased. The opening from which the
pus discharges is rapidly healing. The
cough is less and the expcctoration materi-
ally diminished. Temperature 9S 4-1O
pulse 100, respiration 49,"
The maximum temperature for six
teen hours preceding three o'clock p. m.

lows: Chattanooga, Tenn, SO; Cincinnati,

The St. Louis and Mississippi Valley
Transportation Company organized Satur-
day by electing the following officers: II.
c. Haarstick, president; Henry Lourey,
vice president; Austin r. Moore, treasurer;
H. p. Wyman, secretary. The bylaws
were not adopted, as the time at the dspo-
sal of the board of directors was limited.
1t is understood that while there are five
Gould men in the directory, and an NJ. V,
T. man is chosen president, that both Capt.
Haarstick and Capt. Lourey will be recog.
nized as equal heads of the line. 1t will
be seen that Capt Moore, an old NJ. V. 7.
man, is made treasurer, and II. P. Wyman,
a staunch Gould man, is made secretary, so
that both sides seem to be getting fair
show.
Another lot of wheat in the st. Paul
elevator comprising about 10000 bushels,
will to-day be posted on the Chicago board
Of trade as in bad condition. This will make
the third lot Of wheat that has been re-
ported "in bad condition" in Chicago with.
in the last ten days. The two former
lots comprised about three hundred and
fifty thousand bushels. One would Judge
from these there had been no distressing
failure in the wheat crop Of the country,
and that the quantity Of wheat in the coun-
try were vastly greater than the future de-.
mand could possibly absorb. 1t seems
next to criminal that so many thousands of
bushels Of breadstuffs should be allowed to
rot in the elevators and warehouses Just to
