The 80 acres of land involved in the
Alexander-Sh mortgage case, over
which the latter sought to invalidate
the mortgage by reason of forgery
and alleged usury, are advertised to be
sold under a mortgage foreclosure
sale in one of the south side papers.
An attempt to ascertain why this &C.
ton was taken proved fruitless, al
though attorneys here are of the opin-
ion that the sale is being made for the
purpose of validating new mort
gage Sheffel has promised to give
Cord II. Stage, the assignee of the
mortgage.
The residence of Alonzo Hockett in
Paxton township was destroyed by fire
shortly after seven o'clock last Sunday
morning. Only few of the house.
hold effects were saved. There was
no insurance on either household ef-

have originated in closet, where it
appears to have been carried by
children playing with rags, and while
the parents we're not looking. When
first discovered it had made a good

the flames was Intellectual. Mr..
Hockett's loss is estimated at near
$1,000.

gage was concerned. Mr.. Sawyer, in
summing up, contended that a forgery
and usury had been shown. Mr..
Pierce roasted everybody in connect~
ion with the case. He roasted the.
Scanlans, Madigan, and finally The:

was always actively engaged in un-
earthing some damnable piece of ras-
cality and crookedness-a roast which

Arrangements for the annual en-
campment of the G. A. R.. Southwest
ern Minnesota department, are going
on merrily. The committee from the
Board of Trade, appointed to solicit
subscriptions, reports that nearly all
of the required amount has already
been raised and there are still num-
Der of other houses that will contrib
ute literally. The subscription mon
ey, above the required amount, will be
used for special attractions. The en-
campment will be held in June and
will last three days. Capt, w. P. Dun
nington will probably be in charge of
the encampment, now that August
Knueppel has resigned as department
commander His name has been
handed to the proper officer for ap-
pointment. The encampment will be
held on the grounds adjoining the
falls of the Redwood, if arrangements
can be made with the owners of the
property, which now seems likely.

LITTLE LETTER CARRIERS.

The remainders of the so !. and 100
]. unpaid letter stamps of Italy are now
on the market at small fraction OF
their face value.
Letters have lately come from Ecua-
dor franked with new sort of stamp
in the shape of an 1894 Seebeck, sur
charged with "1s97-1s9s" diagonally
across. Thus far only the ten-cent
value has been seen, though it is prob
able that the whole issue has undergone
the same treatment.
1t isn't every lot of old envelopes
found that contain stamps Of substan-
tial value. A southern collector, who
recently had the opportunity of look
ing over something like 10000 old let
tiers, written from 1S45 to 1860, several
thousand having been mailed in Balti-
more in 1547, was rewarded with only
one five-cent Franklin, the list price of
which is SIS cents.
All the stamps of the provisional
government of Hawaii have been de-
stroyed, likewise all obsolete issues.
The only stamps now obtainable at
the post Office are those of the 1894
issue. While the stamps were being
burned an English stamp dealer was
present, and after half had been de-
stroyed, he offered $1,000 for the re-
mainder, but the offer was refused.
A million postage stamps weigh Ga
pounds; joined together in one line
their longest way, they would reach
Is miles, Abb feet, or cover an area of
5000 square feet; stacked one on top of
each other they would reach a height
of 125 feet, and dumped in one space
they would fill a large dry goods box.
To count them would take one person
four weeks, three days, seven hours
and forty minutes, allowing one count
each second and ten hours work
day. Now, who of our readers wishes to
undertake the job of collecting 100000
stamps ?-Texas Official Bulletin.

THINGS ABOUT MANKIND.

The liver is a most wonderful organ,
containing facilities of several kinds.
But perhaps the most wonderful thing
In it is that part set aside to look out
for and arrest poisons.
Who would think that in his eye there
is block and pulley, or "tackle," as the
sailors call it, as complete and efficient
rs that with which a ship hoists her
mainsail? There it is, however; and
whenever you look at the tip of your
nose the muscle that moves your eye
ball works in it. There are several of
these pulleys in the body.
So inventive was nature when con-
structing our body that the difficulty
is to stop enumerating her clever ideas.
She saw that we would very soon grow
tired if we had to hold up two heavy
legs by means of muscular effort, so
she made the hip joint alright, and
the pressure of the air alone keeps the
leg in its place.
Adams apple, if it was once that
fruit that brought into the world all
our woe, is now a useful organ. 1t
serves as a sort of storage cistern of the
blood for the supply of the brain. When
the heart sends up too much blood
Adams apple intercepts it, or part of
it; and when the direct supply from
the heart temporarily runs short,
Adams apple gives up its store.
Most people know the use of the cpl
CLOTHS, which saves us from imminent
death every time we swallow bit of
food. At the back of the mouth the
air passage and the food passage cross
each other, and, whenever we swallow
food, it would inevitably go into the
windpipe and choke us, only that this
little body pops down and covers the
entrance. 1t is like the policeman who
regulates the traffic where streets
cross.
The semi-circular canals, for CEN
turies a physiological puzzle, are an ex-
traordinary device for enabling us to
keep our balance. They are little chan
nels, followed out, in connection with
the ear, in the bones of the head, and
partly filled with fluid lymph. AS our
head or body sways the fluid moves,
acting like a spirit level, and inform
ing the brain whether we are standing
in the perpendicular or at dangerous
angle.-Answers.

A public benefactor has appeared in

The government intends that you
shall soon be able to put two cents in
the slot and draw a postage stamp
from an innocent-looking little estab-
ishment clinging to pillars and door
ways.
To bore hole halfway through the
sole of shoe is said to relieve its
squeaking. The reason assigned for
the cure is that the air between the lay
ers of leather is released by the boring.
The horror social" is a function at

A quart of oysters contains, on the

pound and half of fresh Goldfish. or

HOW EASY II is.

ow easy 1t is to spoil day!
The thoughtless words of a cherished
friend,
fhe selfish work of a child at play,
The strength of will that will not bend.
1.-THE slight of a comrade, the scorn of foe,
/ The smile that is full of bitter things
They all can tarnish Its golden glow,
And take the grace from it's airy wings.
How easy it is to spoil day
By the force of thought we did not
checkl
Little by little we mold the clay,
And little flaws may the vessel wreck.
The careless waste of white-winged hour,
That held the blessing we long had
sought
The sudden loss of wealth and power
And 10! the day is with Ill hwrought.
How easy It is to spoil life!-
And many are spoiled ere well begun
In home light darkened by sin and strife,
Or downward course of cherished one;
By toll that robs the form of its grace,
And undermines till health gives way:
By the peevish temper, the frowning face,
The hopes that go and the cares that stay.
A day is too long to be spent in vain,
Some good should come as the hours 60
by;
Some tangled maze may be made more
plain,
Some lowered glance may be raised on
high.
And life is too short to spoil like this
If only prelude, it may be sweet;
Let us bind together its thread of bliss,
And nourish the flowers around our feet
-Watchman.
