"Who Turned Dat Hog Loosc?"

At certain hotel in Peoria, where
the meals were not always what they
should be. a merchant traveller, one
day, sat down to the table. He put
dollar under the tumber, and, calling
waiter, said:
"Do you see that dollar, Jim?'
"Yes, sab, replied Jim, with a grin.
"Well, now, Jim, want you to get
me real good, first-class dinner. You

winked at Jim.

anticipation.
Jim, do you see that dollar?" put

Struggling with the Hello Box.

The other day very distinguished
Senator, who thinks he has the right of
way to the White House, walked up to
the Senate telephone and conducted
the following colloquy:
"Halloo, central Officer (The Sena-
tors say "Halloo!' the Representatives
only say "Hello!O
The central office responded.
Call the Office of the Commissioner
of Patents for Senator Blank
Then there was long pause. Tho
Patent Office at last answered. The
Senator shouted at the top of his lungs,
and with his nose flattened against the
hello box, evidently thinking that the
louder he bawled the better the wire
would transmit the message. The CEN
trail office kept cutting in on him, and
he couldn't make them understand.
At last he squared off and shouted
straight into the box with voice like
foe horn:
1--WE got 'em. Don't you UNDER
stand9 tell you I've got EN-
yes, and got EN- bad, too" sarcas-
tically responded the central office

The Market

THURSDAY EVENING, Mar. 81, 1884.
The weather is warm and cloudy with
good prospects Of another storm.
The rivers are both rising, but the Ohio
is on stand and falling above, so we need
not expect much more water from that
source.
The market, in sympathy with other
markets, is dull and unsettled. Values are
hardly sustained and the feeling is one of
general weakness.
FLOUR-Quiet and weakening. The
break on wheat has tendency to send
prices lower. Orders are light but stocks
small.
HAY-The supply Is light and demand
small Prices hold firm but there is very
little movement.
Receipts ere very light. There
was not car of choice received on track
to-day. Stocks are mostly IN the elevator.
OATS-Weaker and lower. The de-
mand is small and stocks light.
MEAL-Not quite so active, but prices
hold firm at the mills.
BRAN-Scarce and wanted at 95c.

gihes or dynamos. All that is required
are merely the ordinary metals and

helpless for five years, so helpless that she
could not turn over in bed alone. She used
two bottles of Electric Bitters, and is so
much improved, that she is able now to do
her own work."
Electric Btters will do all that is claimed
for them. Hundreds of testimonials attest
their great curative powers. Only fifty

great reluctance, while Mr.. Gardner
labored under a similar Disadvantage.
The Messrs. Hayne displayed fine
skill, and had Mr.. Monroe Miller not
been prevented by pressure of BUSH

the commencement of the
sport, no doubt his superior
shooting would have placed
him among the foremost IN the

worthy the enviable reputation they

their rivals from Bastrop we're Squar-
