Newton, Ia


Newton, Ia.
NEWTON, Ia, Feb. 25.-J. r. Zol-
linger. a meachant of this city, was
brutally murdered Saturday night. A
little after o'clock his wife and daugh-
ter heard his footstep on the porch,
and opening the door found him in a
dazed condition. He was able to tell
them some one had struck him, but
before he could reveal more he lost
consciousness and died few hours
afterwards. A wound on the top of
his head indicated he had received a
heavy blow there, and club found
on the sidewalk near the house ap-
pears to have been the weapon used.
The walk is spattered with blood
from there to the house. The affair
is shrouded in mystery, as no mo-
tive has yet appeared for the deed. He
had about $50 in his pocket, but that
was not taken. The murdered man
was a prominent citizen of this place for
many years and served several terms
as sheriff of the county. During the
war he was an officer in the Twenty
eighth Iowa regiment.

Loss Of tho Musical Faculty,

"Amusia, or loss Of the musical fac
ulty, has been reviewed by Professor
Edgren of Stockholm. The disease
proves to be strictly analogous to
aphasia, the loss of speech, which may
or may not accompany it. Two general
forms are recognized-the sensory form.
where tones cannot be appreciated by
the ear or notes read by the Eye, and
the motor form, in which the patient
cannot sing. play or write notes. Bal.
let places the expression of music be-
tween the emotional and the artificial
or verbal language. Music is less COM
plicated and earlier appreciated than
speech. Many children sing before they
speak, and Reyer has told Of q child OF
9 months who could repeat tie notes
exactly as played ON the piano. while

TIN CANS AND OLD SHOES.

They Well Reward the Italians Who Rake
Them Out Of the Ash Heaps.
On every dumping ground where the
city contractors of Brooklyn place their
ashes one may see constantly Italians
working hard leveling the heaps, as
load after load is deposited, and care.
fully placing the tomato cans and other
castoff pieces Of tinware in piles by
themselves. The contractors do not OBJ
ject if the householders put old cans
among the ashes, for this insures a care
full leveling by the Italians at the
dumping grounds at no expense to the
contractors. The revenue from these
cans that are collected by the hundreds
and thousands is q matter of surprise to
most persons. A two horse load brings
from Sc to IS. 1t takes several days of
hard work to get o big wagon load, but
the Italians don't seem to mind the labor
of it, for there is money Immediately in
sight as the piles of tin cans grow.
They watch jealousy their picking
grounds and sometimes make special
arrangements with the contractors for
tho privilege of scraping and raking the
ash heaps over.
The tin a N are sold to men with
furnaces, who place them in q big CAL
dron, and under a slow fire melt the tin
and solder and run that part off for fu-
ture use and sale. Almost all the tin
and solder is saved by this process and
is salable for use in making more cans
for preserving vegetables. The heat is
then made intense, and the iron that re-
mains is melted and cast into sash
weights. The demand for these old cans
is said to be greater than the supply,
and one Of the most valuable of the
scavenger privileges that the Italians in
large cities assume is that of working
over an ash dump.
The Italians also collect odd bits of
leather in heaps. Old shoes of a large
size are always q special delight to
them. Awagon load of them is always
salable for use in making lampblack.
There are other sources of profit in ash
heaps, but the chief sources of revenue
to those who pull them to pieces are the
oan and the shoes .-New York Snn.

A PLEA FOR SOUND MONEY.
The New York Produce Exchange
Adopts Resolutions.

New York. Dec. 2s.-At a meeting Of
the members Of the New York Produce
Exchange, at noon to-day, the following
resolutions were adopted:
Whereas, The members of the New York
Produce Exchange view with concern the
depletion of the gold reserve of the United
states treasury, resulting in distrust of
the governments ability and determina-
ton TO meet its obligations, tending to
gravely injure all business interests and
disastriously affect values, therefore,
Resolved, That we strongly urge upon
congress the necessity of taking, in ac-
cOrdance with the recommendations con-
tanned in the recent message of Presi-
dent Cleveland, such immediatesaction at
this time as will meet the exigencies of
the case and restore public confidence in
the financial ability and integrity of our
government, and we appeal to the patriot
ism OF our representatives to see that the
action taken is free from any political
bias or party prejudice which might en-
danger its success.
And the president of the exchange is
directed to transmit a copy of these reso-
lutions 10 the president of the United
States Senate and the speaker of the
House, and to each member of the New
York delegation in congress.

A PASTOR MAKES A SLIP.
He Mistakes CIevelnnd's Patriotism
for a Political Trick.

Hagerstown. Md. Dec. 26-Rev. Henry
Evans Cotton, rector Of St. Johns Epis-
copal church, in his sermon yesterday
morning, made a violent attack upon
President Cleveland. for whom he had
voted for the presidency, although the
pastor is a republican.
Hour by hour" he said, "the Presi-
dents utterance stands publicly impeach-
ed by the honest common sense of
the people. Bitter disappointment has
come 10 many who feel that with his great
gifts, he might have lifted the nation to
higher, surer plane of action; but he
has been dragged from his place as a
statesman downto the level of the political
leeches that surround him. BY one breath
of his mouth he threw millions of the
peoples money into the maelstrom of
financial ruin; in another breath he pit
eously invokes his congress to avert the
crash he has called down upon our heads,
and millions of lives are disturbed by the
horrible possibilities-God grant the i'm
possible possibilities-of cruel war"
The PASTORS words created a great stir
in the congregation.
