The grand jury concluded its labors
yesterday afternoon and adjourned last
evening. The gambling rooms w < reopen
open ready for trade and in two of them
poker games were running. Wonder if
there is any logical connection between
the two factsV
Mr. .1. S. .ludd has just completed and
occupied a beautiful cottage on the east
sidoof BlnlT street , near Willow nvemio.
Ho is employed in the Union 1'aeilie
freight department and found this side
of the river a more convenient location
for his family ; hence his change.
It is usual to sentence vagrants to
hard labor , but the only hard labor the
city seems to furnish is the labor of eat
ing three big meals a day and growing
fat. A little of this idle muscle put at
the end of a shovel and used in street
cleaning would cause the paving to be
come visible.
The workmen are engaged on the
dining room and kitchen of the Ogdcn
house , which are being entirely reno
vated and Improved in many ways. The
kitchen is practically made over. The
hotel is being put in condition with the
evident intention of making it a ilrst-
class hotel in every respect.

The Council BhilTs Hcflcctor is the
name of the now society paper which
made its appearance yesterday , the pub
lishers being Lecns & Waterman , the
latter having editorial chaago. There
Eooms to bo a good llulfl for a society
paper hero , and the young men who
venture upon it are evidently fully
capable of working it successfully. The
now paper make a very fair debut and
promises much better with the forming
of acquaintanceship.
The People's store is just now displayIng -
Ing some special bargains. The an
nouncement made in another column is
one of practical interest to everybody.
While securing goods at remarkably
low figures , the customers secure likewise -

prizes. Kisoman & Co. give their cus
tomers no oxcui-o for going away from

here a largo business from all points o !
the compass. _
\\l\y Is It ?
Why is it that the "Hoal Estate of.
flco" of J. G. Tipton is full of peopk
from morning until night ? Because

ticm is centered in the Heal Estate
trade , and that anything they want ir
the Heal Estate line thev can got fron
him. Ho has n largo list of property
to select from , and hence ho can suit
anyone , cither rich or poor. People lisi
their property with him wisely , because
they know that if ho don't self real cs'
tate the weather is very cold for the
other boys.

The ladies of the Scandinavian Ban

inancial and socially. Much credit is
Ino to the ladies for the manner in
ivhich they entertained all.
The Methodist church improvements
ire drawing to completion , and the

ippearancc. Electric lights are to bo

The pastors of the city have a union ,
r club , of their own. Their meetings
mvc been held weekly , and interesting
; onfereiiccs have been had with cx-
jhango of sentiments and experiences.
't is understood that there has been
OHIO little chafing , however , and that
omo of the pastors will drop out quietly.
t seems that there should bo enough
; hristian unity for the pastors to unite
it least one a week. If the preachers
cannot keep in harmony for one hour
once a week , how can the sinners of the
congregations do so every day the week.
i\ . few ' 'the

these is charity , " and a few less on the
iinfulness of theater going , might bring
nbout a reform.

There seems to bo an evil genius
presiding over the introduction of the
tower lights. During the whole course
of erection there has been a constant
scries of hitches , attributable to no one
particular source , that has been con
tinually postponing their completion.
In the first place the now machinery
necessary to run the additional lights ,
s a most unreasonable length of time
in getting hero. After a vexatious
delay it arrived , only to find that a mis
take had been made , and the dynamo
had to bo shipped back and a larger ono
sent. The now engine was placed in
position and everything looked favor
able for a specify completion of the
change , when an armature was burneel
out , and the tower light dynamo had to
be connected with the 12 o'clock lights.
A now arinaluro was ordered by tele
graph , and arrived in an unusually
short time. Yesterday it was placed in
the dynamo , when it was found to bo
larger than ordered , and the same pro
gramme gone through with in regard
to the largo dynamo will have to bo re
peated. Aside from the armature ,
everything at the station will be in
readiness Monday nigh ! . The wires
we're run to the tops of the towers yes
terday , and the lamps are waiting to bo
hung in their places. If another arma
ture can bovcceivcel in as short a time
as was the last , there is no apparent
reason why the tower lights should not
bo in operation Thursday night , but the
aforesaid avil genius may still hold n
few trump cards , and tauo an active
part in the game for some time to come.

Clear ( ho Sidewalks.
Mayor Gronowcg is" out with a procla-
nation to the effect that the ordinance
requiring the clearing of sidewalks will
bo enforced strictly. Snow shovels arc
expected to bo in the hands of cvorj
property owner or tenant , so that whci
snow comes , it will go again. This is
as it should bo. There is'iio excuses foi
the shiftle > ssnbss in neglecting to cleai
oil sidewalks1. While the1 mayor is thus
indulging i.u uroclauiutiona' ho fihaule
go n little further ami enforce the re
moval of other obstructions froin the
sidewalks. Thorn are barrclsand boxes
allowed to remain on the sidewalks of
principal strc'ots. Pearl street is espec
ially needing the mayor's attentionand
then there are one or two wholesale
houses on Main street which might
possibly get in some of their barrels out
of the way of pedestrians , who Cannot
vcr ywell take to the streets , as the mud
has been allowed to accumulate too long
there. The street croisings , too , are
needing a proclamation. Mn.vor Grone-
wcg , in starting in on this clearing up
reform will bo heartily supported by
many , and the appearance ol the city
will 'doubtless bo greatly improved.

I'ci'Honal Notices.
The decision in the case of Congress
man Lyman against the city has caused
a change in the method of serving no
tices of special assessments. Heretofore
it has been customary to publish the as
sessments , and if a property owner did
not chance to sec it he knew nothing
about it , or , at least , was not supposed
to know anything about it. In the case
referred to Major Lyman claimed that
ho had received no personal notification
that his property had been assessed for
a new sidewalk and curbing , and that
the publication in the "otllcial organ of
the city was not sufllcient. To save any
'
further trouble on this point the city i's
now serving personal notices , the mar
shal having the papers. This , is to do
away with any- possible claim that the
property owner was not given notice
and an opportunity to present any pro
test to the council before the assessment
was entoreel on the tax books. This ne
cessitates much extra labor on the part
of the citv , for property is constantly
changing hands , and personal service
at the best is quite troublesome. In the
case of non-residcets , where their agent
cannot bo found bore , the notice by
publication will probably sullicc.

Memphis Avalanche : A day or two
ago B. L. Milan , an old and respected
citizen of Waterford , Mis * , . , called at
the Avalanche olllce and exhibited a
mtidstono that has a history. It was
brought to Alabama from China in 1810
by Dr. William Barker , who ubcd it with
success , lor suvenilyenvs. 'At bib death
it'was bold to Jarvis Milan , father ' . ' of the '
Avalanche's visitor , and four others.
Milam moved to Mississippi in 1835 and
took the stone with him , having bought
out the interest of his partners , lie died
in 181 ! ) and left the stone to his son. The
present proprietor has used it in 12811
cases for bites of rabid dogs , cows and
horses , besides spiders and snake bites ,
and ho asserts that it did not fail to
effect a cure in a single instance when
applied before paroxysms had set in.
The stone is porous , of a light cream
color , H inches in diameter ; and weighs
one ounce. It has been broken in live
places and is mended with silver bands.
When a person is bitten the wound is
first Carefully washed with warm water ,
a mop being used to guard against dan
ger to the operator from infected bleeder
or pus. The stone is then bound
tightly upon the affected part and left
there from two-to fifteen hours , accord
ing to the freshness of the bite
the older it is the longer the time
necessary. When removed it is found
to have absorbed a quantity of blood or
pus from the wound , it is then washed
clean in warm water and dried before
a fire or stove. Mr. Milan has been of
fered $ > * > ,000 for his treasure , but refuses
to sell. lie gets a good revenue from
it , charging those patients who arc able
to pay , but its virtues are moro fre
quently called into play to save the lives
of unfortunates who have nothing to
give in return. It is to Mr. Milan's
credit that these are never refused , and
that ho values the stone most for the
good it does to suffering humanity. Ho
is greatly troubled lest at his death his
children should divide it up and thus
destroy its virtue.
