Tbe many great improvements intro- dneed in the manufacture of the Jas. Boss’ Gold Watch Case, have led to similar im- provements in the making of silver cases. Under the old methods, each part of a giver case was made of several pieces of petal soldered together, requiring a great goount of cutting and soldering, which phened the metal and gave it the pliability lead rather than the elasticity of silver. Under the improved methods, each p: = Keystone Silver Watch Case is made ae solid piece of metal hammered into dupe. The advantages are readily appar- et, for every one knows that hammering jardens the metal while soldering softens it. To test the superiority of the Keystone Silver Watch Case, take one of 3 oz. weight, prssit squarely in the center when closed, od it will not give, while a case of same might of any other make will give enough pbreak the crystal.

JI find on « review t the principal events of J ie cl ronologi > are about as follows: Name, George Graham. Age, twenty-nine years. Born in Alleghany City, Residence, Ft. Wayne, Ind. Married, wife and two children. June 1st, 1870, in good standing Pa, in society; strictly temperate; a member of I. O. G. T., and ingood situation. About July 4th, 1870, began to take a drink omce in a while in com- pany with young men. September roth, 1870, dismissed trom my situation for intoxication while on duty. October st, 1870, expelied trom membership in the Good Templars lodge for repeated violations ot their obligations. From October ist, 1870 to April 25th, 1873, going from bad to worse; doing anything for whiskey. May 29th, 1873, sentenced to this prison for horse stealing, (acrime no man in his sober senses would com- mit.) December 25th, 1877, served the fiye years (less the commutation on good time allowed); was never reported for any cause during this term, thus Cemonstrating}that I can do pretty nearly right when not in the vicinity ot liquor. December 26, 1877, returned to Ft. Wayne and resolved to never drink again; was taken by the hand and assisted by every person. January 21, 1878, ciected a mem- ber of Amity lodge ot Good plars. Tem- April 21, 1878, appointed deputy assessor of the city of Ft. Wayne. April 29th, 1878, elected secretary of the Good Templars lodge, and was re-elected for four consecutive terms to the same position. June 1, 1878, became a member of the Retormed Men's Christian .Teniperance Union, April 1, 1879, re-appo:nted aepu- ty assessor of the city of Ft. Wayne. July 10, 1879, entered the race for county constable betore the coun- ty commissioners, and July 16, 1870 was elected county constable by the commi oners » defeating two can- dicates. July 17, 1879, resigned my postion as deputy assessor, and “lke an ox goeth to slaughter, or a fool to the stocks’’ (the last seems more ap propriate), was persuaded by some friends (?) to take a drink over my election. ‘Only beer, you know; tbat can’t hurt you.’” Sequ 1—I went home drunk. August 23, ’79, reprimanded by my lodge for 3 violation of my obli- gations as a Go Lex es ar. out October 15, od M ance Union, for drunke 79+ constable, 79, expelled from the Good 1 ge, and Temper- irs lod n’s trom the Refor November 20, ’ forced to re- Drank too much to attend to my business, although two months previous I had a general reputation as the ‘bes constable in the county.’’ sign as county December 1, arrested for torgery and received a two-years sentence for it, the 20th ot the same month. Retrospect, the past a complete failure. Prospect, tne future—hopeless. The only resolution that I make 1s that I will die before I drink again. It I had been possessed of a greater amount of moral stamina, I suppose “it might have been’ different with me to-day. For the sake of my dear wife and darling little children I would that it were. But as Whit- tier puts it: “*God pity them both, and pity us all who vainly the dreams of youth reeall; Of all the sad words of tongue or pen ‘The saddest arc these: ‘‘It might have been.’’ Respectfully, Gro. E. GraHam. An Aged Couple Trapped. Thos. W. Rhodes and wife, an aged couple living in L: ke township, were arrested and taken to ieaiaae City Friday last, by Capt. Dennis Malloy, on a warrant traudulently ob- Oo pension money trom The old couple la »e worth a hundred thousand dollars. “It is claimed that nineteen years ago he and _ his wife certified that a woman who was | residing with them on their tarm in| Pettis c Lake creek township was named | Tabatha McDaniels, and that she was the widow of a member of the Sixteenth Hlinois regiment, who was killed during the war. The pseudo | | Mrs. McDaniels wanted a pension, {and atter time she was granted by the government $125 per annum, the affidayit of Mr. and Mrs. Rhodes to the effect that she was the widow ot the dead soldier being instrumen- tal in securing the money. At regular intervals Mrs. McDan 1els would appear before Mr. Will D. Steele, who prepared the necces- sary papers for her, and often she would be accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. Rhodes. It is said that the $125 per annum has been drawn by some one of the three parties named for nineteen years past, and the fraud was not discovered until a short time ago, when the genuine Mrs. McDanieis, who liyes at Han- mibal,. made application for a pen- sion.” Dearest M:—My love is stronger than the smell of coffee, patent but- ter or the kick of a young cow. Sensations of exquisite joy run through me like cohorts of ants through an army cracker and caper ver my heart like young goats over a stable roof. I teel as if I could hft myself by my boot straps to the height of a steeple or hke’ an old horse in a green pasture. As mean pups hanker after sweet milk, so do I hanker after your pres- ence, and as the goslin swimmeth in the mud puddle, so do I swim in a sea of bliss when you are near me. My heart flops up and down like a churn-dasher, and my eyes stand open like cellar doors in a country town, and if my love 1s not recipro cated, I will pine away and die like a poisoned bed-bug, and you may comg and catch cold on my grave. The city election is almost bere, and the people ought to have a chance to say by their ballots wheth- er they want to pay Mr. McFarland $1.000 for seven lights.
