"In the United States District Court, "
says the Chicago Inter Ocean, Jacob
johnson, owner of the schooner Z. NJ.
Portch, filed a libel to recover $4,000
damages against the schooner Negaunee
for collision which occurred on the
morning of Sunday, Sept. is, 1880,
about twelve miles east of Kewannee,
Wisconsin. There was dense fog at
the time and it is claimed that the Ne
gaunee had no watch on deck and blew
no fog horn. The consequence was
that the Portch ran into the Negaunee
and was so badly injured as to become
water-logged. She was towed into
Manitowoc and was laid up for the
rest of the season, besides losing her
freight on her cargo of railway ties
which she was carrying from Alpena
to Chicago. Repairs and loss of time
are claimed to aggregate $4,000
johnson has settled $4,000 Of the los;
with his insurance companies, and
now brings this suit on his own behalt
for the uninsured portion Of his loss
and also on behalf Of the insurance
companies" The Portch had on board
cedar from Bolton e. McRae Of thi
city, and that firm lost about 500 wortl
of the timber.

the Irish question, or has taken up the idea
that IL IL an agitation causeless, or based
only upon sentimental grievances.
They would find In this book no rhctor
ical generalities or descriptions drawn from
ina gination, but facts gathered from sources
OF unquestionablc reliability, and state
mcnts by persons OF unimpeachable veraci
ty.
Entirely disconnected from the Irish Land
movement, revealing the true nature ano
effects Of Irish Landlordsm, its grinding
oppression, It's exorbitant exactions, and thu
depths OF squalid, hopeless poverty ant
misery TO which 10 reduces Irish tenants
which require no appeals TO feeling TO I'll
every human mind with detestation OF th'
Irish land system, and commlseratlon fo
those upon whom 1t has been imposed. Th,

this country, but in Europe, and will

We attribute the great growth OF our

the very best manufacture. We are
bound to make our store headquar-

and this season, although goods have
advanced, we shall keep prices down
as low as ever, and trust to our stead
lily increasing sales to mako up for
any increase in cost. Prices will at
