three gallons were secured by Captain

at that time residents of Simsbury; but
Mr.. Humason soon after removed to
New Britain. Mr.. Aliens share was
secured (only quart of it from Mr..

all he had left but about one ounce, and
for that ounce he was offered one dol
lar and refused the offer.-Haytford

A soPPos1Tlous BID.
ReplNto Geo. D. Goodhue's Article
in the Democrat.

ED. JOURNAL. 1t seems to me
the council would have been better
place to fight out bids on street
work than the columns of paper
that has nothing but criticism Of all
that is done. The statement that
under my bid the people will pay
$4,000 more than if Goodhue had
been given the job is not sustained
by the facts, which are as follows:
My bid is for three inches of gravel
with one inch of sand on top of it,.
Goodhue's bid was for two inches of
gravel and no sand.
My bid included cement curbs,
cutters, catch basins and Connect
ing of pipes. Goudhue's bid did not
include the connecting of pipes with
sewers.
My bid includes a warranty that
the work shall be satisfactorily COM
pleted before accepted by the city
authorities. Goodhue's bid is with
out warranty. Besides Goodhue
asks the city to pay him ten dollars
day If he should be delayed by any
poles or pipes that might be in the
way, in case he got the contract.
Furthermore, Goodhue's bid only
provided for one-half an inch of ce
meDt surface ON top OF the curbs,
while the specifications and my bid
call for an inch of cement both on
the top and sides of the curbs. His
bid provides for no facing for the
sides ofa the curbs. Goodhue's bid
held the city responsible for the re-
muval of all water mains, gas pipes,
electric poles, shade trees, etc., aud
that in advance of or by the time
the contract was commenced.
My bid was SIS ,542,22, Goodhue's
bid was $14, ,4S4 SO. Under the cir
cumstances the city council prob
ably knew what it was about when
it rejected Mr.. Goodhue's bid, which,
while it provided catch. basins, was
too full of catches for Goodhue &
Co.to suit the council or the citizens.
The bid WIS awarded to me fairly.

GHOST SEERs.-One of the great
German authors has written mas
ter-piece on the above subject, but
the interest in this subject is not
dead. Only last Saturday night
three young men of this city took a
stroll through the South Salem
cemetery at the midnight hour as a
wager. They were Cooke Patton,
Charley Tasker and Harry Randle.
They arrived just as the town clock
struck twelve, and the first thing to
greet their vision was pair of glar-
ing eyes about as big as saucers. The
boys were somewhat alarmed, yet
after holding a death-like council OF
war, decided to investigate his lord
ship the demon. They crawled up
on him, and as they advanced his
eyes enlarged, but grew less fiery.
The boys feared it was Il foil to en-
courage them to an unsafe approach.
About this time they imagined they
saw flash of lightning, but they
braced up and proceeded to the front.
They had come to see ghosts, and
didn't propose to back out low 80 ON
they went,and as their courage grew
the ghost apparently weakened. By
the time they arrived at the spot
w renee the orbs of fire had glared at
them, they were gone, and nothing
could be seen but polished moDu.
M mt. From the carving on this the
electric light of the city had reflect
ed back and furnished the boys a
genuine ghost for the time being.
They came home satisfied.

Can't Be Done.

The problems of how to make good
butter or cheese out of poor milk are
those which no dairyman should con.
slider. If they can be done it would be
much more to the advantage of all par.
ties If the time and thought were given
to learning how not to have any poor
milk. There are difficulties enough in
the way in striving to produce good
article from good milk. The farmer
should learn how not to produce any
poor milk, and the creameries should
learn, and are learning very rapidly,
how to detect it when offered to them
and how to reject it with sufficient firm
ness.-American Cultivator.

Like soft hands, and tender flesh,

remedy, known as the "Golden

A Cheap stone Road.

In 1871 piece of well made dirt road
in the small village of Gilbert, ~ miles
east of the city of Davenport, Ia, was
selected for little experiment. The
road was sixty feet wide, with sidewalks
and cutters, the latter occupying about
sixteen feet, leaving forty-four feet for
the highway proper Five feet from the
center line of this forty.four feet, on
both sides of it, were staked boards, end
to end, each board one foot wide. Be-
tween these boards was dumped lime
stone, broken fine enough to pass through
2-inch ring. When the space between
the boards was two-thirds full the first
boards filed were moved forward
When the boards were removed the
upper edges of the rock rolled down,
thus widening the rock track between
one and two feet, leaving ON each side
of the stone good dirt road sixteen feet
wide.
When the dirt surface became muddy
the travel went over the stone center,
which was thus made solid and smooth
without an expensive roller. This ex-
pertinent was completed in 1878 and the
travel over it was probably five times
as much as upon the average country
road. For sixteen years it remained in
perfect condition. Within the last two
years about three dollars has been ex-
pended upon it in repairs. 1t is in per-
feet condition still. Its original cost
was ninety cents for each twenty-five
cubic feet of stone. Had the same
policy continued, every rod of highway
in the district would have been macad-
amized at this time, and no expense in
CURED except the ordinary highway tax,
and from one-half to two-thirds of that
tax might now be relinquished. New
