The property includes the house and nine acres of ground. This splendid estate was bogun by Mr. Allen about twenty years ago, the mansion being comploted not far from the time tho war closed. Originally thore were thirty-seven acres in the tract, but by the bankruptey pro- coedings a portion was taken off and be- camo the property of Polk & Hubbell, by their purchase of the Allen assots, Mr. Hubbell buys the place for his own residence, Vinton society has been greatly exci- ted over the death of Miss Minnie (Good- win, a school girl of 17, while premature- ly giving birth to a child. She was of Propossessing appearance, and no one sus- pected her until quite recently of any indiscretion. Her condition becoming manifest, the authorities requested her to quit school, and soon after she was taken to Fonda, Pocabontas county, where she died, Ter remains weroe ta. ken back to Vinton for burial, Since tho death of her mother, eight years ago, sho had been living with her aunt, a Mrs. Martin, in Vinton. Her seducor is said to bo a Montana cattlo man, who was in Vinton last September, but whoso name is not made public. A Vinton special says: Jesse Mower, aged 23, and Mrs, Alexander Belsinger, his aunt, aged 55, were arrested nour Mt. Auburn, this county, yesterday, charged with shooting Alex.

Neither will get bail. The best information now in hand indicates a con- spiracy between the wifo and nephew to get the old man’s property, and rid them- solves of him by scaring him away or killing him, The first step in the plot was taken nearly two years ago, when he was induced to decd his forty-acre farm to his nephew supposing ho was signing a will, to take effect st tho death of him- self and wife. The second step was taken yesterday, when the wife fired a $2.calibre ball into the old man’s body, passing through near the shoulder blado, The wound is not likely to be fatal. LETTER RRIERS' SECRETS, Which Contribute to the Sanct ity [orthe Mails! Philatelphis Record There is not a letter carrier in the city but who is the custodian of the sc orets of some one on his route,” said a well-known postal ofticial yesterday. ““What a sensation they would creato if what they knew could be revealed at one time! The divorce courts would be over crowded, and rivals for maidens'aflactions would be parading the streets, armed to the teeth, looking for the other fellow. But thero is a barrier to these revelations The postal laws strictly provide that a carrier must nover tell of what hoe sees, repeat what ho hears nor make public in any manner tho addross upon a letter, When notified to deliver lettors only to the person to whom addrossed it is on joined upon him to romomber this rulo, espocially as regards mombors of the samo family. Well do 1 remembor when I was a carrior a cortain maiden on Broad stroot was roceiving lotters from a father aud son. Whother one knew that the other was writing to tho girl 1 do not know, but this I saw soveral times: When she received a note from the old gontleman she was very deliborato in her movements, but when I handed her one from tho son she was out of the house in a jifly. Ine of the most annoying things to tha carriers is the impudence of . ors.’ 1 havo had these fellows intercept me and offer 85 or €10 if 1 would tell who such a lady was, and whother she was married or not. 1 remember one Iady in particular, who camo here from a neighboring city and stopped at tho resi- dence of a millionaire. She was a mag- nificent woman. A man would hardly pass hor without turning avound to takoe asecond look. The mashers nearly went crazy over her, and one met mo at nearly every stroct corner on my route with “some question regarding her. 1 camo near gotting into half-a-dozon fights over her, and was glad when she went home. But the devices of married men and women who are holding claudestine correspondence are ingenious. All such peoplo stand upon a voleano, not know ing the minuto it will begin to send forth fire and a ruined reputation. One man used to beg me every day ‘for God's sake don't let wmy wifo got hold of my lettors.’ Tho woman was as smart as her husband, She was also holding a secrot correspondonco, and I wasin that too. She did not want her husband to know of it. 1 took good care of both, and they enjoyed cheating each other. At one time I have known on my routo half a dozen ladies who were resting under the belief that their hus. bands were holding correspondenco which should not be carried on. Each one would give me the most minute di- rections that if 1 received a lotter from such and such a place to be sure and hand it to hor, as it was important and inter- ested both. No doubt it did, but then I didn’t think three should take a hand in the business ; only the husband received the duinty epistles. “‘But the mcreased facilities of the new office offer the most extended opportuni- ties for sly work. Boxes are chenp, and the latest trick ncw is for husbands to havo their tender epistles sent to these boxes. They have tho key, and no one else can got into it. If the wife happens to find the key why sho is easily satisfied by being told it belongs to a door at the store or the safe, or something of that sort. You see, only one clerk knows anything of your letters No one hasan idea where you live or anythingelse. But then, postal clerks and letter carriors learn quickly. Traveling salesmon are becoming heavy patronizers of the boxes since they have bocome cheap. The e cuse for theso gentry is that thoy receive letters they do not wish to bo sent home or to the store. So the envelopes are dropped into the boxes, and when they return they find bundles of letters and no ono to ask questions that might bother them to answer.

Says the Des Moinos Leader: Ata quarter past one this morning Mr. Sto- ney, night clerk of the Morgan, dotected an odor of burning cotton in the air of the oflice. He immediately hastened up stairs, and along the differ- ent hallways, and found smoke issuing froin room thirty-two, which was occu- pied by a quite well-known reverend gon- tleman. Upon gaining entrance, Mr, Stoney found the room filled with smoke while upon the bed which was found to be on fire, lay the div: partially un- dressed and dead drunk. As Mr. Stoney instantly aaw that ho could alono extin- guish the fire, which had not as yet made much headway, he did so without mak- ing an alarm. Two holes, each about a quarter of & yard square. were burned through the bedspread and mattresses, After extinguishing the fire, Mr. Stonoy found the drunken divine wholly beyond all consciousness of his perilous situa- tion, and 8o left him for the remainder of the morning. The only plausible sup- position regarding the origin of the fire is that the man had been smoking, and being drunk, had fallen back upon the bed with a lighted cigar in his hand, al- though it could not be found, The full name of this man who has so basely disgraced himself and the high calling which he had taken solemn vows to prominently honor and defond, was given to the Leader's reporter, together with the fact that the man had been on a private spree at the hotel for the past thirty-six hours, He has obtained his liquor by having it sent up to his room from out of the hotel. The reporter was informed that a brother clorgyman, and one of the most prominent in this city, heard of the erring man’s terrible and sudden fall from grace, aud called at the hotel and cffered to buy the man a ticket to Davenport and give him $25 for expenses if ho would leave tho city on last night's 11 o'clock train, but the offer was refused, —— Wei de Meyer, It it now undisputed that Wie Die Mey- er's Oatareh Care s the only treatment that will absolutely cure Catarrh —fresh or Chronic. “Very efficacious, Saml (Gould.

Journal, Very fow people know that bears take to water naturally, They love tho water, not, ]:ul‘hn'll, as well as the moose and deer, but better than most dry-land ani- mals. They are very fond of fish,and are export fishormen. 1 cams suddenly upon a very large bear in a thick swamp, lying upon a large, hollow log across a brook fishing, and he was so nuch in- terested in his sport that he did not no- tice me until I had spproached very near him, #o that I could seo exactly how he baited his hook and placed his fish, He fished in this wise: there was a large hole through the log on which he lay, and he thrust his forearm throug the hole and held his open paw in the water and waited for the fish to gather around and into it, and when full he clutched bis fist and brought up handful of fish, and sat and ate them with great gusto; then down with the paw again, and 8o on. The brook was fairly alive with lit- tle trout and redsided suckers, and some black suckers, go the old fellow let him- self ous on the fishes, He did not eat their hoads, There was «uite & pile of them on the log. 1 suppose the il in his paw attracted the fsh and baited theia on even better than a fly-hook, and his toe-nails were his hooks, and sharp ones, o, and onca grabbed, the fish are suro to stuy, 937109 TIEGO ODELL ROLLER MILL.
