An Ossiied Heart.

An autopsy upon the body of George o.
Carkins, who was found dead in a field in
Newington n. H., few days ago, and
who was thought to have been murdered,
revealed that death was caused by an ossi-
fed heart Physicians say that organ
showed one of the most remarkable cases
of the kind ever seen. The valves were so
thoroughly encrusted that it did not seem
possible for them to have closed The
heart will be preserved for the New Hamp-
shire Medical Society.

HE SURPRISED HIS CREDITORS.
Unexpected Return of Contractor For
rest Brought Cash and .Joy

The creditors of James Forrest con-
tractor for the Bush street grade. were
treated to an agreeable disappointment
last evening by Forests unexpected re-
turn from two days visit to British CO.
lurpbia, when according to their theories
and calculations he had disappeared never
to return.
Mr.. Forrest is spoken of by all who
know him a s n most honest and industri-
Gus man, and as he has the contract to
grade East street he was trying to dis
pose of the bonds and went away for that
purpose. For business reasons he told no
one of his intentions, but was detained one
day longer than he expected on the trip.
On arriving at his home on South Twelfth
street last evening he found that deputy
sheriff with an attachment from kass &
Co. had just succeeded in prying open a
stable door that was already unlocked
The proceeding was soon closed by cash
payment in full from Mr.. Forrest, for
which he has a receipted bill. He also
paid off his laborers and all other bills,
except one for feed, which he win pay this
morning. Mr. Forrest has been engaged
in street grading in this city for two years,
and having paid every debt promptly, en-
joys the full confidence of all with whom
he has dealt.
