Great excitement has been caused in the
vicinity of Paris, Texas, by the remarkable
recovery of Mr.. j f. Corley, who was so
helpless he could not turn in bed or raise his
head; everybody said he was dying of Con-
sumption. A trial bottle of DR.. Kings New
Discovery was sent. Finding relief he
bought a large bottle and box of DIR. Kings
New Life Pills; by the time he had taken two
boxes of Pill, and two bottles of the Discov-
cry, he was well and had gained in flesh
thirty-sIx pound.

Of deeds, yesterday, that morning paper
says the net receipts of this office are in the
neighborhood of SIS, 600 year, and gives the
impression that all that goes right into my
pocket. All want to say is that the money
paid out to employees in the Office amounts to
over $4,000 a year, and it all comes out Of
| the SIS, 900.
A young lady employed at the court house,

did the lady sit there, alternately gazing at

was at last fitted to the cuffs and Miss - re-

Although yet early in the season twenty
nine more liquor licenses have been issued
than were issued last year. aggregat1ug the
city just $14, 500 moro than last year from

are to be made of brick. Said Aid. Sly yes
terday relative thereto: II think it is gross
injustice to property owners with limited
means. The brick is little or no better than
wood aside from being f1reproof, and brick
walk costs a deal more than wood. Indeed, I
prefer wood to brick. The brick we have
| here is inferior to that used for the purpose
in Eastern cities. Brick has been expert
mented with here and it has invariably
proven failure. The brick is soft and
wears out fast. Now and then a hard brick
| will stick UP as q stumbling block beside the
| soft ones which have been worn away. ]

| ance.''

Stricken with ApopIexy.

Thomas HAVANA, living at % First ave-
nue. north, about o'clock last evening fell
into stupor, from which his family could
not rally him. Medical attendance was
summoned and electricity applied, but
without avail. The physicians pronounce
him to be suffering from severe stroke of
apoplexy, and it is not likely that he will
live through the night. He had been for
six years employed as foreman in the
drug house of LYMAN Eliel, but had
recently lost his position. He had been
drinking heavily of late, and because of
this report was started that he had COM
mitted suicide by taking morphine. The
physicians pronounce this as unlikely, and
state that his symptoms are Enthusiastically
those of apopleXy.

ACRIMONIOUS success.

The building association of the Knights
of Labor is highly elated over the tremen-
dous success of its picnic at Lake Calhoun
Monday, although its pleasure is somewhat
tinged with regret that it had not antici-
pated what the attendance would be and
made preparations accordingly. They had
expected from 5000 to 10000 people, but
over $1,000 came. At least 1900 came
from st. Paul, and several hundred from
Saltwater and other points. If the accom-
modations for refreshments, dancing and
boating had been complete, the repast
would have bren tripled. Even as it is,
the association will clear over SIS, 600, al
though an accurate estimate cannot be
made before next Sunday. when all sources
will be heard from.

ONE WAY TO WHIP HIM.
Jumbo. the Cha NIPPON Fighter, Il
Shot i'm the Neck.

The fighting dog Jumbo, owned by Frank
j, Gaus, was shot by some unknown party
Monday afternoon, and is now at his
owners home, badly used-up dog. His
trainer has had him at the fair grounds
for some time past, getting him in
shape for the fight with Jack, which was
to have taken place at ST. Paul the 22d OF
this month. The trainer went to the picnic
Monday and did not return until late at
night, when he found his house broken
open, several boxes of cigars gone, and the
dog Jumbo lying outside with five bullet
wounds in his neck. Yesterday the bull
lets were extracted and the dog made as
comfortable as possible. He took chill
about 10 o'clock last night and an hour
later had not strength enough to lift his
head. MI. Gaus is inclined to think that
the deed was done by boys who had broken
into the house and got Jumbo into a fight
with another dog. and, seeing that their
dog was getting the worst of it. had shot
him. In case the guilty persons are found
they will be vigorously prosecuted.
