THE Hartford Times says an inven-
ton has been perfected in that city by
which an ordinary coal fire, without
the aid of dynamo or battery, will sup
ply all the electrical light and power
that could be desired in household.
The generator, which resembles a
cheap stove, is said to have supplied a
ITO volt current for the last three
years, operating pump and running
other machinery, and is still as good as
new. Five ordinary incandescent
lamps, it is stated, are maintained at
a cost i'll consumption of coal of 1c. an
hour. The device involves the union
of two metals in a multiplication of
wedge shaped bits of alloy, with
various appliances to prevent oxidiza-
ton. Full confidence is expressed by
the Hartford paper in the practical
success of the invention, which has the
support of some of the leading bushes
men of that city.

Deceased was a we'll known resident
of this county, coming here from Carls-
valid, Russia, in 1874, and locating on
his farm two and half miles south
east of Dundee, in Liberty township,
where he has been an industrious and
peaceable citizen until the day of his
death. He had been a sufferer with
dropsv for long time, and for the last
eight months Or more was confined to
his house. He was consistent
christian, and died happy in the faith
that he was gong to better world.

and eight children six of whom live in

recipients of the sympathy of large
circle of friends.

Gold at a Premium.

AS we expected under gold stand
ard, gold has gone to premium and
the inevitable result follows that this
country will have millions of dollars
of gold obligations and not even hun
dreds TO pay them. The gold receipts
at the Denver mint have fallen off
heavily during the month, and this in
the face OF increased production. In
stead OF delivering their product to the
mint the smelters have been selling it
to the Rothchilds at premium. The
gold gluttous will not be satisfied with
the uncOined gold, but will dump our
eagles and double eagles into the melt
ing pot and the country will find itself
without money. This is the result of
free coinage of gold. Without money
the factories are idle. With the fact
cries idle the laborers have nothing
with which to purchase our farm pro-
ducts and the farmer will have no
money with which TO buy manufactured
goods. The railroads will have moth
ing to do, and this will throw thous-
ands of men out of employment and
make millions hunger with nothing to
satisfy it. Oh, yes! this country is on
the road TO prosperity, and the people,
whatever they want, can have feast
a Barmecidal feast. There is nothing
like ''sound money" "honest money. :"
but the only honest money of the fu-
ture is gold and silver, and that given
us by free coinage.
The above is from the Augusta
Journal, republican paper edited by
MIR. Cady. What will our republican
friends say to this?
