ANTIQUE FURNITURE

At the auction sale OF the personal prop
erty belonging to the Downer estate at Ber-
lin Corne Wednesday afternoon bidding
was lively and some extraordinary prices
were realized for some ancient articles. AS
All illustration, an ordinary pair OF brass
sndirons sold for $3.50. An ancient soup
tureen netted the heirs 1915. An old fire
shovel and tongs mulcted the purchaser in
the sum Of So coin of the realm. Ordinary
blue dinner plates brought 20 cents to 81
each. A brass candlestick cost the happy
purchaser 1926. Bed and table linen sold
at prices far beyond their actual worth, a
couole of yards Of linen towelling bringing
So 30 and everything else in proportion
A bit Of antique lace, scarcely large enough
to arrange into a lady's collar deprivei a
fair and anxious purchaser OF the best part
OF five dollar bill. Several pieces of old
lace were snxiously bid for by three ladies
from this city, and each carried home spec
linens at prices which left large vacuums in
their purses. Tables and furniture contem-
poraneous with the settlement of the town
or before brought fancy prices, and scarcely
any thing sold for its actual value. The
late Mrs. Downer was a sister OF the late
Homer W. Heaton Of this city.
