The Jury Oonoludes That He Stole a Lap Bo be. The trial of Mr. Tack Blaoker, of Colfax, who waa charged with stealing a buggy robe at Linden several weeks ago, is at an end. Tack and his friend, Willard Boots, who is also under arrest for complicity in the crime, both swore that Blacker had purchased the robe in question from a stranger on the New Richmond road a few hours after it had been missed in Linden, lhe story failed to hold with the jury, however, and after being out all night it returned a verdiot this morning and found that one year in the prison north was just about what Took needed. The virtuous Tack received his fate with the stoioal indifference of a true philosopher, and stated that he expected just such a dose from "such a gang of jays." The verdiot scared William Boots almost to death and he can see the gloo'ny prison walls looming up a good deal plainer than he ever saw the walls of the Dunkard church, which burned so mysteriously lust spring.

Obituary.

Lora Ethel Myers, daughter of Rntus and Minnie Myers, was born May 1, 1888, and died Nov. 6, 1893, after two weeks suffering from scarlet fever. She quietly passed away, remaining conscious to the last. Ihus it pleased God in his goodness to take another little flower from this this earth. She began her school days last October 18th, at Maple Grove, district No. 3. Clark township, where she is sadly missed, by both teacher and pupils. Her sweet little voice will never more be heard to mingle with her classmates. Never aguin will Bhe respond to the call of her tencher to recitations. While she is so sadly missed at school her loss is most keenly felt in the family circle. Her little voice will never again unite with little brothers and sisters in their earthly joys. Those little hands will never more smooth little brother's hair, but will reach to the angels of heaven. Theme little shoes are tenderly laid awuy and garments folded from sight to be replaced by the robe of angels. Kind father and mother, brother and sister, do not weep for Lorn for she has gone to Him who said, "Salter little children to come unto me." She is in Heaven. Ever remember the promise, "They that mourn shall be oomforted." Prepare to meet jour darling in thot brighter end better land. The following resolutions were passed by her schoolmates:

Whereas,

it has pleased God in his

wisdom to remove from our midst our lute pupil and schoolmate, Lora E. Myers, and whereas the intimate relations long held by our deceased little friend with the members of this school render it fitting and proper that we should express our condolence to the grief stricken parents and relatives and our high appreciation of her as pupil and schoolmate, therefore

Resolved, That in the death of Lora Ethel Myers this school has lost one who was always willing to do her whole duty and always active and zealous in her work, and a loving, kind and peacefnle child.

Resolved, That this school tender its heartfelt sympathy to the family and relatives of onr deceased pupil and Bchoolmate in this their sad affliction.

The Fornm's Seduction in PriceThe Forum, which its readers regard as

the foremost of our periodicals, reduces its priee, beginning with the December cumber, from $5. to $3. a year, from 50 cts. to 25 cts. per copy. This is the most noteworthy reduction in periodical literature that has taken place peahaps that can take place. Magazines of fiction and adventure, the illustrated monthlies, were in everybody's reach, even before the recent reduction in the price ot some of them. But no period! cal of the class of the Forum has ever been sold for 25 cents. It becomes the cheapest by half of all great Reviews in the world, and it remains the largest of all our periodicals of its kind,, and its character is in no wn^s changed.

A Good Pointer.

Storing apples in barrels lined with newspapers, is an experiment made by a Michigan farmer. He opened barrels that had been packed for a long time and found that in those unlined more or less of the fruit was decayed, while in piper lined brrrela every apple found in a fine condition. The paper also acts as a great protection from the frost and apples or other fruit or vegetables packed as above will withstand more severe weather than without the paper.

TEE U00N0IL MEETB.

A (Short Session Characterized By No Startling Business, The council met l«6t evening in tegular fortnightly session and all present wore amicable smiles and rain coats. It took just about twenty minutes for the law makers to get through with the business and go out onto the cold and uninviting streets.

R. C. Smith reported that

Bbout

fifty

of those nobby new brick crossings hud been put in and that others were now being put in as fast as- the weather would permit.

The counoil after some discussion tabled the motion of the Mnsio Hall association asking exemption from the license fee of $50. A number of the aldermen favored the granting of the prayer but it would have been impossible to have acoeded without revoking the ordinance which made the tax.

The electric light committee reported that it had bought the Nutt House safe for $50, to be used in the olfioe of the light plant.

The roof of the city building was re ported as still leaking and the report was received with gratifying applause.

The city commissioners made their first report on the opening of Vance street and will meet in the Clerk's offioe on January 10 to hear objections.

Councilman Reynolds made a stirring speech on the prevalence of the typhoid fever in the southeast part ot the city. It appears that Goose Nibble is particularly affected with this disease at present. It was decided that an expert should be employed to assist health officer Hutchinga in ascertaining the oauses and suggesting a remedy.

The matter of extending the Main street sewer under the Monon road was acted favorably upon, the oity and railroad will co-operate in the work. The city will muke about ten feet of sewer and the road about forty. After allowing a few accounts the oouncil adjourned.

New Books,

Former readers of the Xciv York Times, who reveled in the humor of W. L. Alden, will hail the appearance of a new volume from his pen, entitled, "Told by the Colonel," and issued by J. Selwin Tait & Sons. It has always been the Times' conviction thut "No humun being ever could work the qualifying adjective us does Mr. Alden."

Mr. J. M. Burrie hes many rivals, but probubly no one has run him eo cIobb

race as John Iteid, who book. "A Chronicle of Small Beer," issued by J. Seisin Toit.fr Sons, of New York, displays the same strong local Scotch atmosphere, with even a more delicate touch in character delineation. "The Fight in the 'Coop' attains the dignity of an epio poem.

Free Turkeys,

Lee S. Warner proposes to give erery deserving poor family a turkey for Thanksgiving. Mr. Warner, not being an old resident of the city and conse quently not as widely acquainted as he would like to be, requests that persons desiring the benefits of this free distri bution, kindly obtain on order from John L. Goben, Mrs. O. M. Gregg, DW. Hartman or any pastor of a ohurch. Such an order will be gladly recognized on Wednesday morning between the hours of 8 and 12 at Mr. Wurner's clothing store, corner ot Main and

Fair Ground Notes.

Two ladies were caught in quite a storm at tho fair ground last Sunday evening.

There is quite a number of cattle in the fair ground needing some corn and hay or pumpkins.

The rain was quite a benefit to the fair ground people as the well had been dry for some time.

John S. Brown says he will put two hydrants in the fair ground for the benefit of the horsemen.

Mr. Hoe Byrd has ohanged his occu pation and turned out his pacer, going baok to his old trade of hauling straw.

Brandy Johnson and Silas Wilhite have been brewing fight. If the weather gets cooler they will probably succeed.

There is quite a number of horses being kept at the fair ground this winter, The keepers are G. A. Russell, Harry Nixon and John Blackwell. Mr. Blackwell could 4eep two or three more, as his barn isn't full.

There is more catarrh 10 this section of ho country than all other diseases put toge' r, and until tho last few years was supposed to bo incurable. For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease, and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disease and thorefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured, by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional euro on the market. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. It acts directly on tho blood and mucous surfaces of tho system. They offer one hundred dollars for any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials. Address,

Dampen a piece of flannel with Cham berlain's Fain Balm and bind it over tbe seat of pain. It is better than any plas ter. When the lnnge are sore each an application on the chest and another on the back, between the shoulder blades will often prevent pneumonia. There is nothing so good for a lame baok or a pain in the side. A sore throat can nearly always be cured in one night by applying a flannel bandage dampened with Fain Balm. 60 oenta oent bottles for aale by Nye A Booe,111 north Washington street, opposite eourt house

HOW TO SHOOT TO HIT.

The Index Finger Mnltea the Brat Kind of a Revolver Sight. Shooting a pistol quickly and accurately is a difficult fent to the inexperienced, but the following method, recommended by an old timer, seems to divest the operation of some of the mystery %vhich has heretofore enveloped it. According- to this gentleman, says the Kansas City Times, the trigger should always be pulled by the second finger, the first finger being extended along the barrel, so that it points at the object one is shooting at. No matter whether the gun Is on a level with the hip or sighted with the eye, the index finger will point exactly at the target. Of course the finger and the barrel must be kept parallel and the shooter must not carelessly allow the end of his finger to curl around the end of the muzzle of the weapon, if the finger should happen to be longer than the pistol barrel, otherwise unenjoyable happenings might ensue. That this method is theoretically correct may be proved by an easy experiment. Point your finger at an object, at the same time keeping your hand on a level with your breast and the direction of the finger not in line with the eye and the object aimed at. Then lower your head until you can sight along your linger aud you will find that the digit points exactly at the object.. From unconscious practice In conversation persons acquire the trick of pointing accurately with the index finger, und it is that instinctive habit which is taken advantage of.

The beauty of this method lies in the fact that no time need bo lost in getting the pistol from the hip pocket up to the level of the eye. The maxim "He gives twice who gives quickly" is applicable to getting a gun lnloactlon. The shooting of birds 011 the wing is done more by the instinct of long practice than by the direct use of the eye. But a baseball pitcher never employs a theodolite to locate the plate, and a quarterback frequently passes the ball to a runner when both are running at full speed in different directions, without the use of a speed counter. These gentry do not even hare the advantage of a finger to direct their shots. It would seem that by the cmploj'ment of the index finger method the general standard or ac curacy in pistol shooting might lc considerably raised.

A Man Wlio Hat Two Votos. A little public house, in which the landlord and liis customers have a cu rious experience, stands 011 the boundary line dividing the townships of Darwenand Oswal st 1 e, T.a cash e. The boundary line runs directly through the center of the hostelry, and as there are public rooms on either side of the passage two licenses are necessary. The publican is compelled to close the Darwen side of the house at ten o'clock every night, according to the condition of his license, but theOswaldtwistle license allows him to k*,ep his door open until eleven o'clock In order not to lay himself open to a prosecution by Darwen, therefore, the landlord, when the clock chimes ten, compels his customers to remove from the Darwen to the 0swaldtwl6tle side of the house, and closes the doors of the early-closing portion. It is stated by the landlord that he qualifies himself for voting in both townships by fixing his bed directly over the boundary line.
