' five years old.,- At last accounts the little sufferer Wast getting better and the Dr. will probably resume his work here at Ab early date. £. r- ‘ J - Aliss Anna Draper returned to her ejjhool in Union township last Saturday, aftpr i brief vacation. Frank Timmons, a former Remingtoninn, has settled permanently in F'oiida, as evidenced by the fact that he has taken a wife from among the fair lasses of that sunny land. Mis. 8.

Ottawa, 111., Journal: The young man with advertisement schemes is working the smaller cities. The home newspapers will be asked to “ent down my add,” and in the spring the editor will be persuaded to “boom the town” or sell out. to some one that will. The young man who has secured business cards for a chart or map, will pile the chart in a barn and wear diamonds. His boom seems to be always with him as long as business men are anxious to be gulled and refuse to support their home publications.

Local stockholders will be interested in the fact that news was received last Saturday, from R. S. Dwiggins who is now in charge of the San Juan de la Chica gold mine in Mexico,.to the effect that the new millman recently employed by the company, had accomplished a saving of eighty-four per cent, of the gold, being a large improvement over the best results heretofore reached. This means a saving out of the same grade of ore, Of from §20,000 to §25,000 more per year than was at first ex* pected. Upon the strength of this report and of the strong possibility’ of further improvement, the market value of stock in Chicago went up to §2.50 per share.; About 2,000 shares changed hands at that figiire and then the price went to §3, and some Mexican shares are now selling at that rate. The investors here who got in at §2 may now congratulate themselves. Elmer Dwiggins closed out all the shares in his hands for sale. Some of them were sold at $2 after the price had advanced but before Mr. Dwiggins heard of it Among the later investors were Judge Hammond, Ludd Hopkins, Chas. G. Sears, Wm. B. Austin, Lorenz B. Sylvester, Isaac Colbom, Geo. E. Marshall. N. S. Bates and son and Geo. V. Moss... " »■

The case of Carrie Pearcy against the Michigan Mutual Life Insurance Co., was given to the jury last Thursday evening after a hard fought battle of two and a half days duration: John Pearcy was a resident of Benton county and died in 1884 having an insurance of §2OOO in the above Company: He had been sick a long time, Of a liver trouble, but his death occured rather suddenly, and under circumstances which strongly indicated that W had taken a very large dose of laudanum, with probably a suicidal intent, although the fact that such was the case was not conclusively established. A clause in the insurance policy exempts the company from liability in case of suicides, but the clause is of no legal force when

the suicide is not in sound mind when the act is committed. Immediately after Mr. Pearcy’s death, an agent of the company, with the assistance of certain persons in Remington, induced the widow, while she was in a greatly distressed and distracted state of mind, to accept one thousand dollars and give the company a receipt in full for all claims against it. They led her to believe, among other things, that the company could not be. compelled to pay her a dollar on her husband’s policy. She afterwards brought suit against the company for the other thousand dollars, claiming that the represetations under which she had been induced to accept the §IOOO were false. The case was tried, here in 1885, and the verdict was in favor of the insurance company. It was appealed to the Supreme Court, which reversed the case and sent it back for a new trial. The verdict this time is in favor of the plaintiff, and for the §IOOO and interest, amounting in all, to very nearly §1,300. The case as before stated was very strongly and ably contested on both sides. E. P.
