For the past twelve months I have been
suffering with infammatory rheumatism,
often being confined to bed for several days.
tried several physicians, but they failed to
relieve me. About seven weeks ago afriend
who had suffered with the same disease, rec
commended me to try st. Jacobs Oil. l at
once procured half dozen bottles, which
have used, and find that 1 am improving all
the time. 1t relieves me at once when am
suffering terrible pain, and prevents me
from spending many sleepless nights. Itake
great pleasure in recommending it to those
who are suffering with rheumatism and
similar complaints, as the best remedy that
can be had. Nothing has done me SO much
good, and as # emily costs 6tty cents bettls,
oil can try II.

this line. A builder is erecting in
Egh'y.sixth street some houses on a
new plan; they w;ll be the smallest ever
erected in this city. They face, foreign
ft.hion, on miniature courtyard, and
the outer wall will give on the
streets, They will he complete
for housekeeping, perfect little nests,
being only twelve feet broad by
twenty feet deep. BY this contrivance
the owner will contriye to pack about
fifty families in space comfortably
large enough for about twelve. They
say these toy houses will be the prettiest
ever ed in this city. In striking
contrast to these houses will be flat
house to be built in Twenty-thlrd street,
at cost of s550,0O0. 1t will be seven
stories high, 175 feet broad, and IS 0-l0
feet deep. There will be six families on
a floor, or forty-two families in all.

New Orleans Democrat.

b. F. Carver.of New YORK; has applied
to the Civil District Court for an order to
compel the board of Liquidation to fund
five certain bonds held by him as pro-
vided by act No. 3 of IVA. The bonds
in question are of the denomination Of
$1,000 each, and were issued by the State
of Louisiana TO the New Orleans, Opel>
ouses and Great Western Railroad CONS
pany MAY !, 1854. They bear interest
at tue iate Of per ceut., PAYABLE semi>
annually, and are redeemable 40 years
from date. The bonds were endorsed
in blank and transferred by the com.
pany in June, 1854, and interest was
paid upon them up to Nov. /, 1878, since
which date no payments have been
made. The petitioner alleges that he
acquired the bonds in open market Tor
a consideration and IN good faith, and
that desiring to fund them as
provided in the act OF 1874, he has made
application to the Board OF Liquidation
for that purpose, and been refused on
the ground that the board was forbidden
to do so bv act No. IL of the extra ses-
sion of 1877. He prays for judgment
declaring the bonds to be valid obliga-
tons and to be entitled to be funded.

Dead After Eight eeKs' Marriage

The brilliant wedding of Mr.. James G..
Sumner to Miss Julia A. Fox, daughter
of Mayor Fox, of Cambridge, occurred
only eight weeks ago, and few skies
seemed so propltious as were those un-
der which they took their start in life.
Miss Fox is the heiress of large fortune
and Mr.. Sumner was young man well
spoken Of by his associates in busines in
Boston. The couple departed the even
ing oftheir marriage on a wedding tour,
and returned but short time since to
the parental roof Of Mayor Fox, where
they have since resided.
Friends of Mr.. Sumner have noticed
that he seemed rather unnatural in his
manners during the past week or two,
and it is binted that something in the
way of business troubles, though moth
ing very serious, preyed on his mind.
Wednesday evening, at the tea.table,
May or Fox suggested 20 him that he give
up his BUSINESS for the present, and take
a European trip with his wife, that be-
ing also her desire. At bedtime Mr..
Sumner retired as usual, Mrs. Sumner
occupying another room on account of
painful affection of her eyes, which made
her wakeful.
Thursday morning Mrs, Sumner re-
marked to her father that James did
not respond to her call, and that his door
was locked on the inside; but it was
thought that he was probably asleep.
Later the wife became alarmed at being
unable to get reply from repeated
knocks at his door, and expressed her
fears that all was not right. Keys were
obtained, and upon entering the room
The young man was found lying on the
bed, dressed and dead.
A messenger was dispatched for DR..
Webber, and aiterward for DR.. Holt,
medical examiner for the district, and
for Captain Copeland, Of police station
No, 2 Examination showed that the
unfortunate man had been dead four or
five houts. A pis.ol with one barrel,
lying near his face, showed with whai
weapon the deed was committed. A
bullet wound was found in the side OF
his abdomen and another in the right
temple, the latter penetrating tothe base
NJ the brain. The theory Of the medical
examiner IS that Mr.. Sumner fred the
shot into lis side fIst, aud then reloaded
aud fired the second shot. Neither ei
them was instantly fatal, and il is sur.
missed that he lay in dying condition
several hours. Sumner was cousin o,
Charles Sumner, and bis wedding, which
was solemnizcd at ST. Peter. Episcopal
church, was one the most brilliant that
ever took place in the city.

Both men Sc zed the bar and tugged at
it with all their might. The engineer
tried to stop his train, but could not.
He saw the danger of the men, whose
efforts to free the bar, he says, "were
frantic and like the workings of mad
men," At last the bar was freed and the
train passed on in safety. But John and
Michael Sullivan had paid the penalty
of their heroism. At the instant the bar
was released John was struck by the
engine and killed. Michael was also
struck and manged so frightiully that
he died soon after The saddest of the
story is that both men leave families

The Best Remedy for Chapped Hands

Is Hegeman's Camphor Ice. II should be
rubbed upon the part affected. If the hands
are badly chapped apply every night and
protect the hands by wearing an old pair of
kid gloves. Hcgeman's is the best aud
most popular Of all the Camphor Ices
made. Hegeman's Camphor Ice IL also a
cure for sore lips, chapped face and sun
burn. It is compounded with glyceriue,
which renders it more emolent than any
other CamphOr Ice, and il will be found a
most soothing application to the face after
shaving.
BE sure TO ask for Hegeman's formerly
made by Hegeman & Co., New York, and
now made by the Metropoliian Medical
Company Of New Haven, Conn., and do
not be put of with any other compound,
which may become rancid and DO you
