Apparently he had guessed correcbiy, lor
after he had gone old Crabbe, sitting alone
in the house, began to thlnK 1ne nlaouel
over, He wasn't quite ready to tear down
No. 142, the house to which the agent nad
referred, and build "flats" in the place OF

difficult to find others who would take IL on
any terms, except those OF thorougn anu
extensive repairs. Yet to reduce rent,
even to retain good tenant, was against
his principles. 1t is one of those things
which should be done only as last resort.
Old Crabbe looked over big book con-
tanning columns of figures. linen ne
ciphered a little on a bit of paper, and
found that he had some twenty Thousand
dollars of money to spare for new. invest
ments Such q result ought to have made
him good-natured-I am sure it would have
that effect upon me-but he made wry
face over it and banged the lids of the big
book together, and said it was just his luck
with decent fortune he should have had
thirty Thousand by the end of the year,
instead of twenty. ,..
But after venting his i'll temper on a
chair or two, and making few mtre spite
full remarks about the world and the way 1T
treated him, he returned to thoughts OF
business. Even his fits of discomfort were
not allowed to interfere with business.
And the result of his meditations was
that he put on his big slouched hat
and his big shaggy overcoat, and went
out to look at No. 142 for himself, and see
II it was such tumble-down place as
that agent of his pretended. 1t was still
early in the afternoon, but snow storm
was going on at a pretty lively rate, and
when old Crabbe reached the place he
sought and stood on the opposite side of
the street to look at No. 142, the snow had
made the house as respectable as any of
its neighbors. "New front stepsW NUT

the street to look at them a little more
closely. There were only two steps,
and there was a hole in the first of them;
but the snow had hidden the hole, as well
as very slippery spot on the sidewalk Just
before the steps-a slippery spot which
had been carefully cultivated by wicked
boys. So it came to pass that on that spot
old Crabbe placed one foot (for ga fraction
of a second only and into that hole went
his other foot Immediately, and forward
went his whole body. He almost fell, but
not quite, and he certainly would have
banged his head violently against the front
door if it had not at that instant been
opened suddenly. But this is an excellent
place to conclude the present chapter and
leave the reader in state of narrowing
suspense. 1t is almost always just as the

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Oct. 17.-Sherif Roubi-

Seven United States deputy marshals are

Woman's Advancement.

CHICAGO, Oct. 1.-THE eleventh an
nual congress OF the association for ad-
vancement of women, began here at 2:30
this afternoon, large number Of dis
tinguished women from all parts of the
country being in attendance. Julia Ward
Howe, the aged president, made the open
ing address and referred with some feel
ing to the first meeting of the association,
hold in this city in 1872, and to the fact
that many of those connected in its organ
ization had passed away. She declared a
great deal had been accom- plished for and
by the women of the country during the
intervening period, but declared that the
great reforms were to come, after the
present leaders had quilted the sphere of
action, as the world was slow in acceding
to woman what was her right.

EenliILe SUFFRAGE.

Mrs. Marietta M. Bones, of Webster,
Dakota, is at the Nicollet. Mrs. Bones
voice is the only woman's voice ever heard
in state constitutional convention, (Sioux
Falls) where see pleaded with earnestness
that che word "male" be not incorporated
within their state constitutions. She says:
That honorable body decided that the
word male is still in favor" will probably
always ''be in fauor," so long as only the
voice of selfish males are heard at the
polls" Besides,it is against every interest
of Dakota people to be admitted, which is
proven in the fact that nine out of ten of
our people did not go to the polls upon
this subject. Many of the polls we're not
open there in my own county. But two of
our three delegates saw fit to attend the
convention, but two of the six from the
adjoining county BROWN attended and
only for two days. That
is fair sample of the
sentiment of our people-we are too
poor to support what officers we have; we
are not we'll enough acquainted and too
sparsely settled. This cannot be said of
US in two or three years hence. Last but
not least, we do not want to be forced into
statehood by our politicians, and thus stop
nine out of ten immigrants who would
settle among us as a territory, but who
would not come when we have taken on
the expenses necessary to state organiz-
alton. They would stop here, in Iowa or
Nebraska, where they could find land near

sembled and began the work of disposing
of the thirty one cases awaiting their de-
liberation. The cases submitted to them
by the county attorney yesterday were not
of an important character, and only two
or three required any extended investi-
cation.
Few witnesses we're summoned and at
o'clock the jury adjourned and visited the
county Jail, which they inspected. They
expressed their satisfaction at finding
every thing properly conducted. No COM
plant was made by any of the prisoners

The Flour Prospect.

The following resume of the week is
from the Northwestern Miller.
The water in the river remained at g.
very fair stage all through the week, and
the mills were enabled to run stronger the
last three days than was expected, averag-
ing production Of about $4,000 barrels
per day. This week started off with near
ly as good head of water, but the pros
pect of it's remaining so through to the
close is trife uncertain, the draft of the
mills up to Wednesday having percepti-
Bile effect upon it. There is no change
with regard to the operation of the mills,
all except one making al the flour of
which their power will admit. At this
writing, Wednesday, the flour production
for the week promises 10 average about
$4,000 barrels per day, the same as week
ago. The -four market remains
about the same, prices not being the
most satisfactory to millers. However,
there is a trihe better demand for low
grades, and millers seem to have facilities
for disposing of all the -four they can
make. Hardly anything is being done in
export business, the bulk of shipments be-
ing for eastern markets.

and performs the work for which it was
intended with admirable skill. This
machine will cap one dozen cans at a
