Proclaims His Feelings.

Without the doctor and my better
half have my doubts whether there
would have been an opportunity to
write this, and this reminds me to say
that, against protestations. I'm pre-
pared to say. there is no easement to
to the afflicted and no satisfaction
so intensely intense as when yol are
sick and pain seems unbearable 10 let
your voice proclaim the feeling. Stol.
cism is very noble, to be sure, but
when nature demands the tribute of
hearty groan or grunt from :. suf-
ferer she is apt to revenge herself II

THE POLICE GOT BUSY
Stranger Signed His Name H. G
Black on Hotel Register But
Left Town Suddenly After
Complaint.

A light fingered and clever 'soko"
artist arrived in Keokuk last evening
and left this morning before the police
could lay their hands on him. The
stranger signed his name II. G. Black,
on the register of one of the leading
hotels of the city, and his headquar-
ers Chicago.
Early this morning the police re-
ceived complaint from local dentist
saying that Black had entered his OF.
fee and asked for gold, saying that
he represented Chicago old gold
house and was buyin:s an all he could
get. AS usual the keokuk dentist
happened to Fave a supply of old gold
in the drawer of his desk and being
busy told Black where to find it.. After
weighing it out, the gold buyer told
the dentist he had just six penny
weight in gold, when there must have
I been twice that much, a bridge being
among the old filing and other gold
material in the drawer. Before the
dentist could demonstrate, however
Black was up and gone, after having
laid three dollars on tie table in pay
ment for the gold he had taken.
The police made starch for Blacl
but were unable to Ia. him, and i
is supposed that he had taken th'
X. G. w. train west, or has gone tt
some nearby town to ply his trade o
buying up old gold at startlingly Low
figure.
