ANOTHER REGATTA.

The St. Louis Republican states that
there is to be a meeting OF ne directors OF
the Modoc Rowing club held at Creve Ce-
ur lake to-day to make arrangements fol
grand regatta to be given by them early
in September. 1t is the intention to invite
the crack crews of Chicago, Burlington,
Peoria, Keokuk and New Orleans. The
whole matter VIII be given under the aus
pieces of the Modoc Rowing club, and this
is alone sufficient to guarantee its success.
The meeting will also decide the location
for the new boat house and adopt a plan
most suitable for the purpose. 1t is most
likely the house will be located near the
dripping spring, beautiful spot near the
north end of the lake, upon the bluff side.
1t viii be two stories high and built over
the water upon large pier, under which
wifi be a plunge bath and shelter for pleas
sure boats The lower part of the house
will be used for storage of race boats, a
dressing room, bath room, janitor's rooms.
Upstairs, large hall, two parlors in front
and sleeping rooms in the rear. There VIII
be balcony in front on the second story
and on the sides of the first story, The
house is to be fitted with every conven-
venience and it will be for tho exclusive
use of members and their families.

There are seventeen prisoners in the

son for distribution in the west and south
west. The completion of many of the
southwestern roads now building may in
terfere seriously with this feature of the
river traffic, but meantime the barge lines
are being probably established and
are demonstrating their possibili-
ties. II return freights can be
secured, grain can be carried
to New Orleans at very low rate. 1t is
even claimed that the cargo up stream &C
tually pays the entire expenses of the round
trip, leaving the down freights as profit.
But rails viii not always be imported in
such quantities as this season; nor indeed
is it probable that the inflow viii continue
any great length of time. The question
arises, what heavy freights can be secured
to take their place? 1t this can be solved
satisfactorily, the barge lines will continue
to be great success and will compete
seriously with the railways. The present
state of affairs is EXCEPTIONAL but as we
have already remarked, it is test of pos
sibilities and a grand advertisement.
Hence it is altogether probable that new
up-river freights will be found and per-
manent business secured. The railway
companies may as well conclude at once
that this new competitor is not ephemeral.
but has come to stay. Some years ago we
predicted this, and now the time has come
when the Mississippi river route demands
respectful consideration.

To Whom it may C0acern:-This is to
certify, that my wife, Eliza Rice, has been
afflicted with troublesome cough for
more than seven years. Ihave expended a
large amount of money with the best ply
sicians in the county, and for the many
remedies advertised to cure all diseases of
the lungs, with but little satisfaction or
relief, and she was daily becoming more
discouraged, and her cough growing worse.
1t had become apparent to me that some
thing must be done for her immediate re-
lief, or it would soon be too late. About
this time, January Is, 1879, DR. Whites
Pulmonaria was highly recommended to
me, and at once purchased of our drug
gist, Mr.. ]. S. Powell, six bottles for five
doll ars, which was guaranteed to cure her
cough or money would be refunded. am
pleased to inform my friends and the pub
lie generally that she was greatly relieved
by the first few doses, and continued to
grow better until she was entirely cured by
the use of this valuable medicine, 1t has
performed all that is claimed for it. and /
can cheerfully recommend it to all who are
afflicted with consumption, coughs, etc.
My wife and myself can be consulted at
any time in regard tc the abeve wonderful
cure. LEWIS RICE.

A SURPRISED JUSTICE.

Last evening the police effected the ar
rest of man for drunkenness and disord-
erly conduct On arriving at the station he
gave his name as ID. Wilson. This morn
ing the prisoner was escorted to the office
of Justice Chopper, where he was fined $5
and costs. He examined his pocket-book,
and fouad that II cents was the total
amount of his wealth. The court and at
tending policemen expected that the pris-
oner would go to the lookup in default OF
payment.
The prisoner asked permission to see a
friend and secure the money to pay
the fine The necessary leave was
granted and in very few moments, the
man returned with roll of bills that as
tonished even the court. He threw down
800 bill, and requested the court to re-
turn the proper change. This the court
was unable to do, but finally by visiting a
bank the bill was broken and the fine made
good. 1t is stated that the man had fully
$4,000 in his possession when he returned
to pay the fine.
