Post Mortem Ordered.

BUFFALO, Oct. A post mortem has
been ordered in the case of Edward S.
is surrounded by circumstances suspi-
cious enough to warrant an investiga-
tion. Matters Of great financial i'm
portance are involved in the result.
Should the examination reveal suicide
the heavy insurance which Damn car
ried on his life will not bs paid. The
death of Damn deprives his accom-
plices, Armstrong and McCredie, of an
imp ortant witness IN their behalf.

Ann ARBoK, Oct. 4.-Judge Thomas
NJ. Cooley asserts positively that be will
not write letter proclsimlng himself
for the democratic national ticket, his
health being in too precarlous condi-
ton To stand the excitement and aglts-
ton which such . letter would cause
him. He does not deny that he will
vote for Cleveland but simply says ne
is out of politics. The impression from
an interview is that he will vote for
Cleveland and Stevenson and this ls

The Dissatihed Saints.


Nearly every church in this country has
its dissatisfied eaint. One is not pleased
with the choir. Another objects to the
minister's prayer. Another finds fault
with the deacons or elders. Another is
troubled in mind about some infnitesimal
fraction of the creed. Another thinks there
should be new church edifce or is dis
pleased with the new one which has been
erected. After being thorns in the flesh
of the congregation for long time, they
often leave and seek for peace in another
church or another creed, but they Away g
fail to find it there. At last they generally
reach the capacious bosom of "Rev." Rob-
ert F. Ingsrsoll, and are there at rest His
negative creed teaches them not to distress
themselves about theologies, church Off
GERS or church buildings. They are hidden
to believe nothing, to worry about nothing.
to renounce all religious aspirations, and
be like "the fat weed that rots itself in
ease on Lethe wharf"

ACommon sense REMEDY.

In the matter of curatives what you
want is something that will do its work

remedy is Allcock's Porous Plasters.
These plssters are not an experiment; they
have been Used for over thirty yesrs, and
their value has been attested by the highest

They require no change of diet and are not
affected by wet or cold. Their action
does not interfere with labor or business;
you can toll and yet be cured while hard al

RELIC OF COLONIAL DAYS.

The Interesting Discovery to n Secret
Drawer In the ScoviIl Homestead
in Waterbury.
]. E. w. says in the Waterbury Ameli-
can: In dismantling the Scovill homestead
at the corner of Prospect and Grove streets
there was found in massive old "secre-
tary," built into the library wall, in one
of those delightfully."- transparent mys-
teries beloved by all hunters of old funi-
ture, secret drawer, bundle of ancient
title deeds. The even lines of round,
scholarly writing have faded and the soft
creased linen paper has dsrkened till both
are fast reaching the same neutral brown;
but the Oldest still records, in the old law
clerks complicated verbiage, how that on
Eye twenty fecond day of February, one
thoufand feven hundred and three, Samuel
Hikcox of Waterbury, in ye county of
Hartford and oolonie of Connecticut in New
england, for and in consideration of OK,
by me in hand received" did "give, grant,
bargain, sell, enfeof and confirm" to Seth
Timothy Standby pice of iaud lying ''in
Bever Meadow" which must have been
somewhere near the Naugatuck river.
Real property seems to have stuck so
fast to its owner in those days that he
could shake himself clear of it only by
the most sdroit verbal gymnastics; for
this old conveyance goes ON to covenant,
warrant, release and assure this little
patch of grass and gravel, till one would
think the OK would have grown very heavy
ere the time at last arrived for Samuel
Hikcox to 'make his marck" and drop
the little splitter of sealing wax which
added such reverend dignity in the eyes of
the common law.
Think of the times and the men who
filled them when this old landmark was
placed upon the village records, by august
authority of Thomas Judd, Esq Justice
of the Peace"
King William of Orange was sovereign
lord of Connecticut in those days; the
great Duke of Marlborough was stri wing
nightly in Flanders against the grand
monarque and the banished Stuarts, and
Cotton Mather's formidable texts were still
ringing In the Old South; but while battles
and dynasties were rumbling and crumb-
ling in distant Europe, and Salem's witch
craft had just been laid in shame and sor-
row, Waterbury, already well estab-
lished, orderly community, was rearing
her sons in peaceful struggle with the
sturdy soil, till there should come in full
ness of time another 22d of February, and
with it the Virginian who should call the
men of Connecticut to march in liberty's
ragged legions to the conquest..of a common
country and an equal law.
Even an honest Samuel and Seth thought
no sport of ga OK in hand received, >" so the
spirit of their children living valiantly
where the weight was heaviest has made
the Waterbury of to- day. The old order
changeth and giveth place to new; but
these quaint papers, preserved in forget
fulneas, like the faded leaves of long for
gotten harvest, still bring us faint flavor
of the olden time.
