The outlook indicates that wheat

farmers can hold on, a waiting game
this year will more than likely prove
most profitable. However short the
crop, if the market becomes congested
for short time lower price is sure
to prevail. If wheat is housed for
awhile and marketed gradually later a

the result, for with hail and short

For great many years doctors pro

pronounced it incurable. Science has
proven catarrh to be a constitutional

CAUGHT AT LAST.

Every night for nearly two
weeks the family of Mr.. I. H.
Hettrick, residing on Ehring-
haus street, have been disturbed
and frightened by what was
supposed to be either a burglar
or ghost. All kinds of myster-
ious noises were heard and once
or twice bricks and other articles
would fall in what was consid>
cred a haunted room. Parties
have watched for the intruder
for several nights but could not
catch anyone or discover from
what sourse the mysterious noise
came. The Chief of Police was
applied to by Mr.. Hettrick for
protection, and for several nights
the policemen guarded the
premises, the neighbors also
becoming alarmed. Last night
a very close watch was made by
policemen and others which
resulted in the arrest of Mr..
Hettrick's son John, who, it is
claimed, was the guilty party.
He was arraigned this morning
before Mayor Wilson under a
charge of disturbing the peace,
Mr.. P. H. Williams appearing
for the defendant and city at.
torney Leigh for the State.
Several witnesses were examin
ed and from the circumstantial
evidence John Hettrick was
provened guilty and fined SIS
and costs, the whole amounting
to 1875. The action of
young Hettrick in disturbing
his own people and creating
such an alarm among his neigh
bors is a problem yet to be
solved.
An appeal was taken and the
defendant placed under a bond
of 500.
