That Stiff.
Last Fall as was patent at the time to everyone residing in a certain section of the city a sawbones, who is now absent, brought home with him from one of his expeditions the carcass of of a negro. This he placed carefully in a, Warrei and secreted it in a cistern, assisted by one of his tenants. The M. 1)., when op portunity offered, erected a kettle in tho back yard run off some good strong lye and dropping the cadaver 111 soon had nothing but bleached bones. The neigh bors all smelled the perfume issuing from the boiling African, and wondered what was Uie trouble. They only found out when the disciple of .Esculapins and the tenant quarreled over a matter of rent, when the tenant told all he knew about it. The story has been the talk of the West end for six mo'it'is. and any at tempt to make a sensation out of it is fu tile. The medical man in question runs his business and hfs practice in a style peculiarly his own and made no secret of the fact that he bought the cadaver and for the purpose of getting the skele ton.
The Midland In Seott.
The Board of Commissioners was in .special session Friday on business connected with the Midland railway tax in Seott township.

The sand bag fraternity has put in nn appearance at.Brown's Vallev, and last Saturday night plied his work in pood, style, and made thereby a raise of about three hundred dollars. About 10 o'clock at night John Oglesbnv, a young farm hand was on his way home from Brown's Valley and when he was about quarter of a mile from the village and passing through gate, he was suddenly and violently attacked by two men who spiang from behind the posts of the gate. He struggled with them and at last was knocked down and Ins pockets rifled. lie had about $:iU0 in money on his person which was taken. In the struggloV his watch was jerked from his poekot and thrown across the road where ho found it Sunday morning. Young Oglesbav lives with his brother near Brown's
Valley, and had earned the money thus stolen by hard work. The loss is heavy ami all hope that ho may be successful in capturing tho robber. If the robber was a. strauer he evidently had some pointers furn-v, ished l.»y one who knew that Oglesbnv had money and how he would go when ho started home.
