In Clark VS.. Iowa City go WALL $751; the ac-
ton begun in 1874 was to recover the amount
due on coupons which matured in 1850, with
Legal interest from date of maturity the bonds
from which the coupons were cut having been
previously paid. The defense was, first, the
statute of limitations, and second, that ii the
coupons were not barred. no interest could be

overruled and upon the question of interest.

The people who live on Winthrop hill,
between Winthrop and Court streets, were
kept in high expectation of something awful
all Friday afternoon and evening. In the
afternoon there was some lively diminishing
between two or more irate female cOmbatants,
the fight increasing in fierceness toward
nightfall. After the menfolks arrived home
ffomwork, these reserve forces were wheeled
into line and the batteries opened fire at short
range. Rum played an important part in the
conflicts and was more or less responsible for
me afternoon affair. The noise attracted at
least the officers and the disturbance was
quoted much to the relief of the respectable
people who had been compelled to listen 10
70 many hours of profanity and vile epithet.

began to search the house to make sure that
was not The victim Of some joke. went
mp stairs and the groans sounded below.
l went down again and into the cellar but the
noies came from above. l came back here
Whitfield out some wedges and commenced
circuit of the house fastening every door
behind me. Finally was up stairs again
and had about given up the job
when l discovered a scuttle in the
ceiling of a closet. crawled up through this
under the roof to see if I could find any
cause for those groans. The chimney was
very near me, and somehow l fancied that
the noises came from that. put my ear to
it and listened. After while Ibecame con-
vinced that in that chimney was all the ghost
there was. began an examination of every
opening and fireplace. but could nd nothing
went down cellar to the big arches and
could find nothing there. made up my mind
that must get onto the roof of the house. l
took my lantern and went to the barn where l
found that long ladder. got it down and after
hard tussie up against the house. Putting my
lantern on my arm 1 climbed up onto
the roof, over its wet, slippery
shingles to the big chimney. l could just
reach the top of it. The noise was louder
there and made up my mind ghost or no
ghost, 1 would tear down that chimney till
found out what caused that groaning. I went
to work. With loosened brick knocked
off others until could see that the fue on
which was at work was covered by some
thing. l worked away and finally pulled
that piece of old rusty sheet iron off. l then
understood the cause. One edge had rusted
SO that it left space through which the draft
up chimney passed and vibrated the whole
sheet, causing the noise which the fue acting
as pipe changed into groan. That's all
there was to it. then got down, came in
here, and went to sleep. You can rent your |
house now"
1t was some time before the denizens of
that country corner could actually believe
that the ghost was nothing but an old piece
of rusty sheet iron. But gradually the truth
made its way and at last accounts the house
was sold and its new owner was altering and
repairing, preparatory to moving in. Thus
one drummer by sacrificing good bed and
quarters conferred q lasting
benefit upon community and raised the
value of real estate.

A NEW HOME TREATMENT.

NEW HUME TEsEIAAN
Sufferers are not generally aware shat
these diseases are contagious, or that they
are due to the presence Of living parasites in
the lining membrane Of the nose ana Gus
tachian tubes. Microscopic research, how
ever, has proved this to be a fact and the
result is that simple remedy has been for
mulated whereby catarrl, catarrhal deafness
and hay fever are permanently cured in
from one to three simple applications made
at home by the patient once in two weeks.

females (whites) this remedy is q specific.

It is quite possible to come
suddenly upon Easter, or for
Whitsuntide to steal down upon
US unaWares, but such special
seasons as Christmas and the New
Year don't admit Of any trifing.
No sensible person delays until the
last moment the arrangement of
or her gift-programme. And SO,
as most Wisconsinites are sensible
we're daily receiving immense
quantities Of orders. Gifts are
pleasurable things either to donate
or to receive, any time: but they're
doubly acceptable on Christmas or
New Years Days. They assure
us Of the certifying aid Of love and
friendship. And as gifts are sym
bols of those feelings of esteem
and tenderness and affection which
do most honor to human nature,
the custom Of bestowing them
must forever remain a beautiful
one; and that the Day of the
Nativity, Or the first day Of a new
year should be selected for the
bestowal Of such offerings, adds
las we've said) very materially to
the warmth of their welcome.
