Cleveland Herald. |

On Bridge street, West Side, resided
last year fairly well-tOdO widOwer
with one charming daughter. They still
reside there, IL OuRh both daughter and
father have become married TO the same
person. That person still lives with the
family, 10 still the father o uninoumbered
wife, and all il harmony. How come
these strange events to pass? It il not
a long story.
The widower loved his daughter, who
10 bright, pretty girl, and some years
ago sent her to a boarding school in an
adjacent State. While there the daugh-
ter formed a school friendship with a
girl chum. II was deeper than usual,
and when the Cleveland girl left school
she resolved not to be long separated
from her friend. The Cleveland girl
came home and was installed as her IA
theirs hOusskeeper. Her parent refused
her companionship, and the two chums
were only able to keep mp their friend
ship by correspondence. One day, az
the Cleveland girl sat sewing in her cosy
house, a knock came at the door. She
opened it. and q jauntily dressed boy,
with handsome features and q pretty
moustache, stepped in, took the girl in
his arms and kissed her. She taken by
surprise, but satisfa tory explanations
followed.
The boy WAS her school friend in mas.
querade. A long talk ended in an ut.
tered resolve never again to part. The
boy went away, but few days later the
father lost his daughter and did moi
hear from her for some time. Then q
letter came from an adjoining town
| saying she was married and asking fol
the usual forgiveness. The father tool

brought them home. The daughter b 40
married h.r schooimate, but the father
never suspected it. The plot resulted
~ the pair had hoped. They were not

and the father took deep liking for his
son-in-law.
One day be noticed that the yeunc

posed that they lie renewed at we'll.

lemma. The girl husband objected, the
father insisted, explanations came. aud
an inadvsrtent remark by the father led
the pair to suspect that he know theiI
secret, and tears and dsuhie comics

hell that should have pealed at their

PILES! PILELIIPlLES!!!

A sure cure for Blind, bleeding,
Itching, and liberated Piles, has been
discovered by DIR. William, ian Indian
remedy )called DIR. WILLIAMS INDIAN
OINTMENT. A single box has cured
the worst chronic cases of twenty-five

mOrs, allays the intense itching, (par-
ticularly at night after getting warm
in bed,) acts as poultice, gives in
stant and painless relief, and is pre-
pared only for Piles, itching of the
private parts, and for nothing else.

THE failure of the Marine National
Bank, of New York. and of the kiting
banking house of Grant & Ward, of
that city, created quite furry in
financial circles for few days, but
the excitement has pretty much sub
sided. General Grant was connected
with the latter concern and by its fail.
ure loses $500 and, it is said. is
financially ruined, though the fund of
100000 raised for his benefit many
years ago, is in trust, guaranteed by
the late Governor Morgan, and the
General can only use the interest aris-
ing therefrom. amounting to some Sl5,-
90 q year. Something must be done,
and that at once, for the great national
psuper, for he can't possibly long SUBJ
sist upon such paltry income.

checked immigration for a timo; it
compares faverably in growth with
cities that had no such obstacles to
meet. It has now is 600 people. The
Capital is permanently located here,
and 100000 appropriated to complete
the State House. There are many fine
buildings, the Postoffice, Hospital for
the Insane, and the State University
being particularly fine, large. commo-
dious and costly, and the Penitentiary
Jail, Depots, &C., are well adapted to
their use, while there are many costly
residences. Lincoln is now noted for
its pleasant homes, and these are being
beautified by every means, tree plant
ing, walk laying, grass plating, &C.,
is going Oh on every hand, and every
one is intent upon their own business.
Water Works bonds are on the mar
ket, and supply of pure soft water,
IS 900 gallons per hour is secured.
$375 900 have been paid in by citizens
toward the Stock Yards, and COM
mittee of gentlemen have gone East to
enlist Eastern capitalists in the enter
prise. With stock yards, packing
houses will follow, and Lincoln will
step to the front, right dressed into
line. In this cheerful outlook quite a
number of Portage County citizens
have an interest. From Hiram, we
see DIR. StanhOpe, who owns very
pleasant residence in the city and a
section of land outside. He is engaged
in the practice OF his profession. Mr..
Hall, of Huff & Hall, extensive real
estate dealers Mrs. Crane and family,
and Prof. G. E. Barber, of the State
University. The Prof. is also engaged
in outside land operations, and has
bought and sold several tracts, real
izing comfortable advances. These
from Hiram, and Grove d. Streeter
and family, known to most of your
readers as lifelong residents of Sha-
lersville, have become permanent resi-
dents of this proud little city. Mr..
Streeter owns splendid farm of 400
acres y miles north of this city and
u miles from the depot at the thriving
village of Raymond. Untouched
prairie one year ago, it now looks like
Il modern farm, fenced with substan
tial three-wire fence, a comfortable
dwelling, barn, cattle coral, hog pens,
