Sew Features of the Keefer Failure.

CINCINNATI, Jan. S-The failure of the
Keefer Milling Company, of COvington,
yesterday, following so closely on the
death of ID. Keefer, the senior member, has
further sensational features. The suit
brought by the First National Bank, and
the attachment made by it to secure it's
claim reveals that between Dec. IL and %
last, the bank received drafts from the
Keefer Milling Company drawn upon va
rious firms in Philadelphia and New York,
it being supposed that, the drafts
In each case represented consign-
ment of -four. They aggregated about
$4,000; Not one of. these drafts
was honored, no consignment having
been made. The dishonored drafts were
made and presented by George Keefer, the
secretary of the company. His father, now
dead, was notified of the facts before his
death, and there is some ground for the be-
lief that this knowledge fastened his death.
He was found dead in his bed, and the cor
oner stated death was from apOplexy.
George Keefer is not now in COvingtOn. 1t
is said he used the money in wheat specula-
ton, in which he was a loser, but nothing
definite is known on the subject He has
been with his father from boy hood and has
always borne an excellent reputation. His
whereabouts Is not now known.

There is lady living on the North Side
who. rightly or wrongly, is full of indigna-
ton at a certain express company. A
month ago she received a postal cara stat
ing that there was a package in the Office
addressed to her. Anticipating testi-
imonlal benefit from some thoughtful
friend she called for the package and pre-
sented the card. But the agent wasn't
ready to give il up until he learned some of
the particulars.
Were you expecting a packages" he
asked, in the usual stereotyped way.
The lady admitted she held herself open
to such occurrences.
From where were you expecting one!'
asked the agent.
.How do know? I'm not mind-reader."
Have you friends in Dakotap
"Yesr
"Where2v
BY this time the holder of the postal was
becoming tired. She declined 20 pin up an
exhibit of her Dakota visiting list, and left
the Office.
A few DAYS ago she got another posta.
card concerning the same old package. and
went through the same forrnuIa OF ques-
tons.
Il WISH, said she finally, '.you would
stop sending me cards about this parcel
want the package or a rest"
You don't get the package" said the
agent.
Keep il year and then sell IT."
Thus the war stands, and the lady lives
in daily expectation of receiving another
postal card.
