An Old Woman of Wealth.

a queer Character Who Has Made q
Fortune out OF City Hall Politicians.
As Roscoe Conkling, Joseph 81.
Choate and William NJ. Evaris were
leaving the court house after big trial
the other day they encountered a decrep-
it old woman in the corridor. She
grimaced and the eminent iurists raised
their hats and bowed with courtly dig
nifty. A half-dozen big tenement hous-
es, a bundle Of government bonds and
shares in an uptown savings bank re-
present the old woman's worldly pos
sessions, and yet she can neither read,
write nor cipher. She is the best
known character in the Offices of the
city government. When the late VIM.
NJ. Tweed first came into power '.Aunt
Sally" as she is called, used to peddle
peanuts and apples in the various offic-
es. By careful economy she had saved
a little money. Tweed, who would do
anything for any one he took a liking
to, advised Sally to put her little saw
ings into ''spec." which he promised
would turn out well. Sally made sever.
al hundred per cent profit on her invest
ment. In those days every politician
owned a high silk hat and silk UNI
brella. Sally made it her business to
become acquainted with every politi-
clan, lawyer and ofice-holder of conse-
quence, and at stated times visited
them to collect discarded hats, umbrel-
las and other articles of wearing appar-
ell. She carries on that business today
in connection with her peanut and apple
trade. The hats and umbrellas she re-
pairs herself, and sells them often for
half their original cost. Coachmen,
hack drivers and colored dudes are her
best customers. Her income from this
source alone is very big. She adds sew
eral thousands dollars yearly to her
fortune. Her age is mystery. Some
of the old timers say she is over GEN.
fury old, and that she is a witch. She
dresses in rags and always pleads po-
verify. The records in the registers Of
fee show that she is worth at least a
fifth of a million. -Ex.

EDITOR GAZETTE: Here am snow
bound at this place, the queerest town 1
have ever seen. It is all owned by one
society, called the 'sAmana Society,"
all Germans. Everything is owned by
the society, and all business is run in
it's name. Not one member owns any
land, houses Or cattle, or anything, but
all is in the name of the society. All
money goes into the general treasury
and is then divided to each member of
the society as he needs it. They have
large Touring mill, wooden mill,
two stores. The town has about six
hundred inhabitants, all belonging to
the society except two persons-one the
telegraph operator and the other the
section boss. The women dress very
plain, very much like the quakers. The
society is very similar to the shakers.
Two or three families live in one house.
All disputes between members of the
society are settled by the council, COM
posed of president, vice president and
four trustees. They have a fine school
house and church, but no minister's
Each member has the privilege of
speaking at any time.
Neither the hotel or houses have car.
pets, but the floors are kept white and
clean with scrubbing. They have a
white sand here that is sprinkled on the
floor, which keeps the mud from stick
ing to the floor. The meD are all good
looking. They are mostly dark COM
plexioned and have black hair. The
weather being SO cold, the ladies are

TWENTY YEARS In BED,
Heart Disease Produces One of the Most
Remarkable Cases s's Medical History.
From the Pittsburg Chronicle.


A gentleman resides in Cleveland who
| is afflicted with heart disease which is
probably the most remarkable in che
annals of American history. DR.. j. y.
Smith, prominent physician, has for
twenty years been compelled to retain
recumbent position. His case has at
| tracted much attention in medical cir
Giles, both in this country and Europe.
Thirty years ago DR.. Smith was an
| active partitioner in Cleveland. About
that time he was Frustrated by over
| work, and in 1869 he was taken to his
| bed with peculiar trouble of the heart.
Since then he has never been on his feet
or for any length of time sat in upright
| position. His trouble lay in peculiar
| ity of the valves of his heart, which re-
fuse to act when he is in an upright po-
sition, but which organ performs its
functions perfectly when he is recum-
bent.
Though for the best part of his life
confined to his bed, DR.. Smith has Won
derfully improved his time, devoting
himself to literary work, mastering for
eign languages and perfecting several
inventions, which latter have proved
sources of large incomes to himself and
associates in their manufacture.
DR.. Smith is a large and robust ap-
pearing man, and aside from the pecu.
liar action of his heart is in perfect
| health. He occupies the remarkable
position of being able to commit suicide
by simply standing upright.

City and County Affairs.

We publish to-day In our local
columns two articles of especial inter
est to our people. The first is the
Bill now before the legislature provi
ding for the extension Of our city
limits. There will be some amend
ments made in the bill before its
passage-the most important OF
which will be to provide that local
option now existing in the Second
district, shall not in any way be IN
terferred with in that portion pro-
posed to be annexed. Weems'
creek, it will be seen, has been sub
stituted for Salt Pan creek, as the
northwesterly boundary.
Equally important with this bill,
is the open letter of the County
Commissioner on the subject OF
taxation. 1t is truthful straight
forward statement of the excellent
reform the commissioners had in
view in asking the legislature to
grant them the power to issue the
bonds of the county to save it from
reputation, or the levying of an
exorbitant rate OF taxation which
the people of the county are so lily
able to bear. Petty, dirty partizan-
ship could not keep its hands off,
but went before the legislature with
Misrepresentation defeated the and
only means that could be devised
by an intelligent board of commits
sioners to relieve the pressing neces-
sites of the taxpayers of this coun.
ty.
The present board of county CON-
missioners is the best the county
has had for years. Though we diff
fer with them In politics, SO called,
We cannot refuse to withhold from
them the need Ct praise they are
entitled to in their efforts to reform
the old slipshod practices of their
predecessors and place our county
upon cash basis, and put an end to
the swindling processes that have
so long prevailed with those who
have been employed to repair our
county roads, build bridges, and dc
all ether necessary county matters.
It's queer party tactics that will
cast onerous burdens upon the PEG.
pie to prevent much needed reform
being carried out by an opposing
party.
