AN OLD ESTATE.
Settled After Porty 'Years—A Sixty-Fourth Part Gomes to This County. About forty years ago one, 0. Harris, died at or near Indianapolis leaving an estate tlia value of Tt'uioli was then unknown as mucli of it in realty. He left a will bequeathing one liall to his second wife and one child, the remainder to seven children by his lirst wife. The seven children were separated widely apart, had married and multiplied until their descendants numbered sixtyfour. A. Harris had the estate in charge and two years ago succeeded in settling it and making a division of the proceeds among the heirs. There wore three grandchildren whom he could not find their whereabouts until recently when by some means he learned that they were near New Richmond, in this county, and were being cared by an uncle, Henry A. Wile, who lives on the farm of R. M. Bible. The eldest of the three heirs, Hays Harris, is now about 19 years old. Last week Mr. Wile received notice from Mr. Harris that the share belonging to these heirs was in his hands ready for distribution. Mr. Bible was made guardian of the heirs and went over to Indianapolis to receive the money. Ho returned this morning with a check for §316.10, being the sixty-fourth part of $'22,150.-10.

THE NEW PIfE OBGAN.
Prof. E. A. Newland's Opinion of the Forthcoming Instrument. The specifications of tho new pipe organ for the Methodist church were submitted to Prof. R. A. Neviand, of Indianapolis, for the purpose of having him pass judgment before a contract was made for placing it in. Under date of April 8 he wrote to Mrs. M&horney, chairman of the organ committee, as follows:
I have carefully examined the several specifications aud Hud them all good. There was one which had no number attached aud which 1 hava marked No. 5 with blue penoil. This is decidedly the best, having 170 more pipes than No. 3, whioh is the next largest and beet There is no price mentioned with No. 5, but if you can get it for $2,500 there is no neod of looking further, for you cannot better yourselves. It is with one exoeptiou a duplicate of my organ at the Second
Presbyterian church, whioh oost, twenty years ago, §4,800. If the price on No. 5 should bo more than you can pay then take No. 3, which Is noxt in size having 1,150 pipea, 232 more than No. 4, which is third in size. Of oourse the more pijK's you havo, the greater tho power aud also tho varieties of combinations. Eaoh stop is individual, just as each flower in a bouquet is different and you will have as many qualities of tone as there are stops, hence I say take the organ with the greatest number of stops. The mechanical accessories are just about the same in all organs of this size and cut no figure whatever, as it is the stops that make the mnsio, and No. 3 has the most of tbem, next to No. 5, and they are well selected, and will give groat variety and breadth of tone.
It was this letter that decided the committee to ask for a $300 subscription last Sunday week and which was so freely made. The committee closed tho oontract die following Thursday when Mrs. Mahorney wrote Prof. Newland. Yesterday she received the following reply under date of April 14:
Yours of the 12th inst. at hand. Am delighted to hear that you have had tho good fortune to raise $300 more, for now you can have an organ oomplete throughout, with stops enough and sufficient to give almost endless variety of combinations. The organ when oomplete will be a perfect duplicate of the Second Presbyterian ohuroh, which I think I told you cost $4,800 and is without exception the best organ in this city, but not the largest. I heartily congratulate you on your selection and feel that you all will be satisfied with your beautiful instrument.
Frcm the above opinions of Prof. Newland it will appear that the Methodist ladies have succeeded in securing a first class organ.

Tho Invention of Spectacles. Few inventions have conferred a greats* blessing ou the human race than that which assists impaired vision. Dr. Johnson rightly expressed his surprise that such a benefactor as the discoverer of spectacles should have been regarded with indifference, and found no worthy biographer to celebrate his ingenuity. Unfortunately, his name is a matter of much uncertainty and, hence, a grateful posterity have been prevented from bestowing.upon his memory that honor which it has to richly merited. But it may be noted that popular opinion has long ago pronounced In favor of a Florentine monk, as the rightful claimant, although some are in favor of Roger l3acon.
M. Spoon, in his "Researches Curieuesee d'Antiquite," fixes the date of the invention or discovery of spectacles between the years 1280 and 1311, and says that Alexandre dc Spina, having seen a pair made by some other person who was unwilling to communicate the secret of their construction, ordered pair, discovered the secret and forthwith made it public. Italian antiquariaus say that the person to whom Spina was indebted for his information was Salvino, who died in 131S, and quotums from an ancient manuscript his epitaph, which says: "Here lies Salvino Amota de Armati of Florence, the inventor of spectacles. May God pardon his sins."— St. Louis Republic.

How the Arab* Make Tea.
The mistress of the tent, placing a large kettle on the fire, wiped it carefully with a horse's tail, filled it with water, and then threw in some coarse tea and a little salt. When this was near the point of boiling she tossed tbo tea about with a brass ladle until tho liquor became very brown, and then it was poured off into another vettjel Cleansing the kettle as before, the woman set it on the fire in order to fry a paste of meal and fresh butter. Upon this the tea and some thick cream was then poured and the ladle put in requisition again, and after a time the whole taken off the fire and set axide to cool. Half pint wooden mugs were handed around and the tea ladled into them, this t«a forming meat and drink and satisfying both hunger aud thirst. However made, tea is a blessed iuvontiou for the weary traveler.— Exchange.

Thanksgiving Turk«jr.
On© morning, soon after court was opened, a burly officer walked up into tho dock and deposited a beautiful turkey on the judicial desk. "This boy, whose name has just been called, stole this turkey this morniug from in front of a market up south," said the officer. "What boyfn asked tho justice. "Here he ls,n replied the officer, and Justice Meech peeked over the edge of his desk and saw a blubbering 9-year-old urchin at the officer's elbow. Near by was the husky Gorman marketman who owned the turkey. Justice Meech asked the youngster what he meant by stealing a turkey, and tho little chap wiped his eyes and nose with his sleeve and blubbered: "Me mudder cried \»use she hadn't no turkey fer us fer Thanksgiving" he sniffed, ''an11 went out an' tookdis turkey from de corner. We has no fodder, an' I didn't wont mudder to cry." No oloquent la*ryer could utter a more eltectivo speech.
The justice blew his nose vigorously, wiped his glasses, cleared his throat, and said to the marketmau: "How much is this turkey worth, my friend The Gorman twirled his hat in his hands and replied: "Veil, chudge, id is vort $1.75, but if you vant id 1 mage id a toliar." Justice Mooch dove into his pocket
anci
banded out a silver dollar. Then he said
Froceod with tho ease. Who owns this turkey Tho marketman grinnod and roplied: "Veil, you do now, chudge." The justice smiled.
UI
guess I won't prosecute
this boy for stealing it, then," ho said.
UI
don't think he knew ho was doing wrong, aud will let him go." Then he leaned over tho desk and gave the youngster a strong lecture ou the consequences of taking what did not belong to him. In conclusion he said: "Now, jpy boy, Til have this officer tako you home, and he can take the turkey along, too, for your Thanksgiving dinner. Toll your mother it comes from uie." The big officer picked up the turkey, took tho small boy by the hand and started out, while Justice Meech again blew his nose aud wiped his glasses, preparatory to disposing of tho other cases. When tho reporter called his attention to this occurrence yesterday the face of the ex-justice lighted up and h«* said: "Yes, I remember the case well. And last Thanksgiving, three years after it occurred, I received from an unknown source a bouncing turkey upon whoso left breast was piuned a newspaper account of that same incident,"—Chicago Herald.
Worse Thau tlie Knout*
With that most horrible instrument, the knout, au experienced executioner could insuro the death of the victim in a very few strokes, and when a sentence was passed ordering tho inlliction of a large number, it was so perfectly understood what was intended that in such cases the executioner was frequently bribed by the culprit or his friends to exert his whole art, so as the more quickly to release him from the torture. So, again, when the Emjieror Nicholas, anxious to clear his country from the reproach of being the land of the knout" to western eyes, pompously proclaimed its abolition, he was careful to retain tho power of infiictfhg corporal punishment in a manner compared with which tho knout itself was merciful. Tho knout could compass tho death of its victim with some half dozen strokes, but before the same end could be attained by its substitute, the stick, it was impossible to say how many blows might not be required.
Ait eye witness of one of these executions has described it as being more hideous than anything that could be conceived. The criminal having been convicted of the de* liberate murder of one of the emperor's ministers, he well deserved to die, and it was determined that die he should but capital punishment and the knout had both been abolished so, in order to attain the end iu view, the wretched man was sentenced to S,000 blows of the stick, which no human being could receive and live. The execution took place in the public hay market and when, after bearing 1,400 or 1,000 blows the victim fell, an uncouscious mass of bleeding flesh, be was bundled into an ordinary peasant's hay cart, and, with pieces of hay*sticking into hi gaping wounds, covered over with rough sacks, he was jolted olT to the hospital and never heard of again. The surgeons were uot likely to be anxious to cure a man whose death they knew to be intended, and even a feeling of humanity may have prevented them from wishing to recall a poor wretch to life only to enable him to undergo further torture till he should bo released by death.— Edinburgh Review.
TVlllng AII Imported Cigar.
How often you hear a man say he can tell imported from domestic cigars by looking at them. 1 havo been over ten years in the business, but I never felt equal to making such a boast as that. Some time ago my father was in Washington, and while there was one day talking to three other gentlemen. One of them, after tnakiug a declaration as outlined above, took three imported cigars from his pocket and passed them arouud for inspection, at the same time saying that no one ever fooled him as to whether a cigar wait imported or not.
Meantime his cigars were laid on the table, and my father, watching his opportunity, quickly took the cigars from the table uuobserved aud substitute! three of his own domestic cigars, and laid them In the same place. The conversation soon reverted to the three cigars in question, and the boaster, turnirfg to them, said: "Now, gentlemen, these cigars are imported, and I'll tell you why," and he then took them up and went on explaining the various points as to size, slm]e, color, taste, smell, etc.
As he coucluded, my father quietly said: "How much, Mr. Blank, would you l»e willing to bet that tho*e were imported cigars!" "Ten dollars," said the expert. "1 dont want your money, but 1 do want to convince you you are wrong," said Mr. P. "Those are not your imported cigars you have there those cigars are mine, aud they are domestic. Hero are yours," said tho purloiner, as he pulled them out of his pocket. The "expert's" face turned pale and then red, and he waa the picture of confusion.—Tobacco.

HUNTING THE SEA OTTER.
HOW THIS TEN IN
COSTLY FUR IS GOTWASHINGTON STATE.
Perched High Above the Billows the Daring Hunter Watches with HI* Rifle and Glasses—Unwritten taw That la Carefully Observed.
It is not generally known that some of the most expensive fur producing animals are killed oB the coast of the new state o( Washington, and it is romarkable that the extent of territory where these animals are taken to so extremely limited, being only from Damon's point, at the northern entrance to Gray's harbor, up tho coast to Point Qreeuville, a distance of about twenty-four miles. The animal referred to is the sea otter, the fur of which is manufactured Into the robes of the potentates and princes of the Old World.
Unlike that of th"j«u, the fur ot the sea otter requires no pluckiug of hair or coloring in fact, the most valuable skins are those which are speckled through with a silver tipped" hair, which is known as the silver tipped fur, the addition of this hair adding 25 to SO per cent, to the price of the skin.
There aro now several hunters nonaged in killing sea otters at the placo referred to, and the modus operandi of taking tiicui was very interesting to mo.
TUB "CROW'S NEST."
The hunters build themselves derricks about forty feet high by taking three slim poles or pieces of timber, each about forty feet in length, and bolting them seourely together at one end for the top, they spread them about twauty-five feet apart at the bottom, giving the appearance of a huge tripod. These aro sot on the ocean beach, about midway between high and low tides, the foot of the poles being imbedded iu the sand from two to throe feet. The structure is then thoroughly braced, and a ladder built to the top by nailing pieces at convenient distances crosswise on the in land.
About eighteen inches below the top of the tripod, cross timbers are socured to the legs, and upon these cross timbers a floor from four to five feet square is laid, and on the oceanward and two adjoining sides walls are built up from three and a half to four feet in height. On the land side, a door Is constructed to allow the hunter easy ingress and egress to and from bis "crow's nest." On the top of the tripod, which extends about eighteen Inches above the floor, a seat is constructed and around the inside of the wall a row of (helving is placed.
At low tide, when the wind is propitious, tho hunter hies himself to his crow's nest, armed with a good pair of glasses, a Sharp* rifle and a lunch, and for six lon^ hours he •cans the line of tho ocean just outside of the breakers, where he most expects his game to appear. Whon tho tide first begins to flood his range is about 000 yards, but as it runs In the range is shortened to 200 or 300 yards. Even at these latter distances it requires close calculation to know just how to shoot to overcome tho rise and fall of the ocean swell and the effect of the wind upon the bullets. It is said thut not one out of 100 shots of the best marksmen is effective. When the tide Is full the derrick stands In the midst of the breakers, and a land lubber like myself feels a little squeamish looking down from the dizzy heights ou the rolling waters below.
The shooting generally done on a flood tide, so the animal, when killed, will wash ashore, and even then it is sometimes three or four days after one is killed before it is beached. Undoubtedly many others are killed and never do come ashore.
MKANS OF IDENTIFICATION.
Each hunter marks his bullets with a mark known to the other hunters, and when an otter is found on the beach the first duty of the finder is to look for the bullet and ascertain v. ho id the rightful owner, for this sign is respected among the hunters as sacredly as marks and brands are among stockmen. When an otter comes ashore with no bullet in him, as frequently occurs, tho bullet having gone clean through the body, and no notice having been given, it is regarded as a "slick ear," in stockmen's parlance, and belongs to the finder.
Sometimes an otter, on receiving a death shot, sinks but the hunter generally knows when ho has hit his mark. By observing the water with his glasses, he can discern, 6ven at the greater distances which they shoot, the coloring of the water from the blood of the animal and if ho does not come ashore on that tide, notice is at once given to the othor hunters, who are then on the alert to find him. But 1 opine that beach ffoinbers, in the shape of stealthy Indians, get away with many an otter killed by the white hunters. I have bad occasion many times to pass along the bench at daylight during the hunting season, but I always fouud the flat tracks of the siwash just ahead of me, printed there since lost high tide.
The Indians bunt the sea otter in canoes, going out and coming in through the surf. Sometimes they go fifteen or twenty miles to sea and stay out several days. But when tbey hunt along within a mile or two of the shore then there is blood on tho face of the moon, and tbo white hunter "waxeth wroth," for the Indian scares away his game. When taken, the otter is skinned whole, as it were, by cutting across the haunches aud stripping the skin down the body and over the head. The skin is then turned, the fur in, and a board shoved through it. It is then tightened by driving & wedge shaped piece down on one side between the board anil the skin, and another contrariwise on the other. All the grease is then carefully removed and the skin is dried and laid away ready for the market.
An average skin is about five feet long by twelve inches wide, double, or, when cut, twenty-four Inches wide, and, in the hunter's hand, is valued at from $90 to $120 but these prices leave a handsome margin to tho fur men who handle them. In Russia an overcoat mode from these same otter skins brings from 11,000 to $2,000, while in China even more is sometimes paid.
Tho season for killing sea otter extends from May to October, and so scarce is this game becoming that four a season is considered doing well by any hunter. In fact, some pass tho season without taking any.
The hunters havo a rule among themselves —which is strictly observed—that only one derrick can be allowed within a range, I. e., about a half mile, thus giving the whole beach a regularity of appoarance not elsewhere observable.—Portland Oregouian.

llrazlllan Hammock*.
The passenger capacity of tlio vesroli on tho Amazon river Is not limited by tho number of berths or stato rooms, which nro seldom or never used except by the fow foreign travelers to dress in, but by the limit of hanging room for hammocks on the deck of the Teasel. Everybody of necessity must have a hammock, as the state rooms aro unbearable at night. Even in the hotels hammocks are more used than the beds. Some of them are very fine. Those made of maqueira grass, with feather lace trimmings, aro considered tho best. It takes from several months to a year to make really good ones, and they bring anywhere from $100 to $500 each.—New York Ledger.

Among tho members of the household were a quiet little lad of 4 or 8 years an-1 a middle aged, unmarried lady, whom the rest of the family addressed as "Aunt Mattie."
Just bofore supper was announced thu little boy came Into the parlor and Raid, in a shrill whisper, heard by all present! "Aunt Ma-a-ttie, ma says she's goin' to set you by thepre-e-e-cher. Ain't that a good joke on you?"—Youth's Companion.
Frightened Off by a Parrot*
A burglar, while ransacking a house in Chicago, was greeted with a "Hello, there!" in a sepulchral voice from the gloom of a recessed corner. He stood not upon the order of his going, but went aft once. A pet parrot had worked in its sole stock of English with admirable results. The burglar dropped a purloined overcoat in his haste to get away, but he subsequently recovered from his scar* sufficiently to enter two other houses, where he secured several overooats and $i0 in money.—Philadelphia Ledger.
Raising Other Progeny.
We often read remarkable stories of motherless squirrels and rats being raised by sympathetic female cats, but in Tarrant county, Tex., an eagle raised a young pig that weighed over forty pounds. A short time previous the same eagle raised a small lamb. The eagle's wings measured nearly eight feet from tip to tip.—Texas Sittings.
There is more catarrh in this part o( the country than nil other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For a number of years doctors pronounced it a local disease, and prescribed local reme dies, and by constantly falling to cure with local treatment pronounced it Incurable.
