Fifty Splendid -Lots lor Sale In Front of lite College, in Sheldon A Hamb-lici'si Xew Addition to Ottawa. Ottawa is growing and prospering far beyond the Holiest expectations of the most sanguine. There is probably no town in the great State of Kansas, or anywhere in the great West, that can compete with Ottawa in her rapid growth and prosperity. It is probably safe to say that she is now increasing in wealth, population and importance faster than any other city in Kansas. So rapid has been her growth, that new additions have necessarily been laid out on all sides of Ler; and the most beautiful of these additions is that of Sheldon and Hamblin's, in front of the College, joining Ottawa on the south, and fronting on Main street and the University Park, with a beau-fttl view of Ottawa and the surrounding country.

The owners have secured this tract of land at great expense, and propose to beautify the grounds in an elegant manner, with sidewalks, shade trees, Carriage drives. Large lots, 250 feet deep, can now be had at reasonable prices, and longtime ji desired. Some of the finest residences in Ottawa will be built upon these grounds the present season. Those who wish beautiful homes at moderate cost should apply at once to II. F.

Mitchell manufacturers of wagons, itae.ine, Wisconsin, call the attention of farmtraof this vicinity to their celebrated farm wagons, made of the best material by first-class workmen, well painted and varnished, and fully warranted for one year.

These wagons are as good as any made in the United States. We use the Kenosho Seamless Skein, set with Harper's Axle and Skein Guago, and warranted to run easier than any other wagon now in use. These wagons are coupled with Mitchell's Patent Box Coup ling, which will shorten or lengthen as iay be desired, without delay. This improvement is acknowledged by all to be the best in use. Remember the Mitchell Wagon is the original Racine Wagon, and took the first premium over all other wagons at the State Fair, at Quincy, Illinois, in competition with many others, among them two that were made for the Paris Exposition and although the contest was of the fiercest character, the Mitchell wagon came oil" victorious.

Happy results or Iefcctivc Memory. A duel! yes, yes; just so, just so; thought to this complexion it would come at last. Come to Ottawa! ah; neuCral ground; Kalloch shot and frpeer arrested. fpeer had lii.s antagonist at groat disadvantage ought to have adopted the suggestion of Curran, and chalked his size out on his opponent, and not counted any shot outside of the chalk line. 2so no! you are mistaken not Kalloch andSpeer.

Xot Kalloch and Hpeer! Clarke and Reynolds, then Clarke and Reynolds! Clarke badly wounded, and Reynolds inchargeof sheriff; Clarke might have known that the best marksman in Kansas could not hit Reynolds might as well hit the gnomon on a sun-dial could not possibly s-trike him unless whilst wheeling, and then only Lis nose that is what he is kept in the office for might as well hope to strike a prize in a lottery! Ten Hold! hold you are wide of the mark again. Wide of the mark so so Pomeroy and Prouty splendid splendid finely matched both fired at the word and both shot within three feet of the middle! excellently well done. Prouty arrest At this juncture the enthusiasm of our reporter at the prospect of such a fresh item was arrested by two of his friends, who feared the balance of his mind would lose its equilibrium and after the application to his now parched lips of a glass of lemonade, he was prevailed upon to quiet himself and listen to the tale as told by those who knew the end from the beginning. On Monday a couple of sous of Mars, who had been, one a Lieutenant and the other a Sergeant, in the Kansas regiment which quieted the noble red man, about eighteen months since, under Col. Crawford, met in one of our hotels, and after partaking ofspiritual nourishment to overflowing, began to discuss the acts of martial days and the Ijieutenant having been called upon to justify his conduct in "crawling on the guard," as the children of Mars are wont to crawl," like the progeny of infirm mortals, the Sergeant remarked that had the suspiciously inclined oiliccr treated him in such manner he would have opened fire on him, in other words Avould have shot him on the spot.

Xo, you would not," retorted the lieutenant. But I would I would have popped you off in a second." This positive assertion bored the hero a good deal, and raised his ire to the extent of throwing warm doubt upon the veracity of the positive sergeant. Matters had now come to the point where the honor of gentlemen are most vulnerable, so the Sergeant demanded to know, How will you settle it;" "with pistols," was the prompt reply. Then pistols let it be," quietly responded the other. Follow me," was the curt rejoinder of the ex-ofiiccr.

So off both aspirants for duelistic fame started toward the cemetery, followed by two volunteer seconds. After leaving the city limits, still in company, the Sergeant, like the youthful shepherd wtio slew Goliah, believed in proving his weapons, so he discharged his revolver two or three times to ascertain its reliability in popping off his antagonist. Arriving at the spot, the Sergeant (whom our reporter will call Williamsburg a.s he hails from that place), shopped, with a military halt, then deliberately stepped oil" one, two, three, four, live, six, seven, eight, nine, ten paces turned right face the lieutenant, of Ottawa, stepped unto the spot from where Williamsburg began to number paces," facing his antagonist, the eyes of each llaming darts of dire revenge. Ready aim! fire! Bang: pop I Xo, not yet. The wind blew up a cooling breeze, and fanning the heated brow of Ottawa, he reflected upon the many pleasant days he had spent on this genial sphere: the cooling lemonade, the foaming ale, the soothing Killikinick, the restoring naps in heated days and thus iuspired began to reason upon the wickedness of the world, and especially of the deep depravity of his Jate companion in arms, who now stood with weapon 'poised, ready to pop him off with as little compunction as Jack Falstaff would run up a bill for sack at Dame Quickly's.

His pent up feelings at last found utterance, showing his- wounded confidence and con reying reproof "Would you shoot me, Sergeant?" Serious, profound question and at this critical point in the affair, confessed that it made little difference, as he had no pistol had forgotten it," upon which declaration Williamsburg fired his revolver in the air. Xo, Lieutenant I don't want to shoot you, but keep your facial aperture closed, unless when taking nature's nourishment," adding, "you know, Ottawa, jou are in the wrong." Ottawa denied the charge, when Williamsburg said, He would leave the matter to Ottawa's second." This was the first Ottawa knew he was Lonored by a squire's services, and retorted, I Lave no second." The discussion -waxing warmer than before, Ottawa proposed to settle the matter with nature's "maulers." to which Williamsburg expressed jo-ful assent, and suiting the action to the word, slipped out of his raiment as quickly as lightning would strip a last year's scare-crow, was in attitude a la Jdorrixcy in an instant, when Ottawa immediately discovered another slip of memory, in having left his lists at home also and concluded by saying the whole thing was nonsense, and had better be absorbed up. Williamsburg had now- come to see the nonsense of the matter also, and only desired that the affair should be kept a profound secret, to all of which Ottawa made a solemn promise, and to his great credit our reporter has not heard a word of the matter from his lips. As the seconds returned to the city they saw the argus-eyed sheriff in a wagon, followed by deputies and citizens, going toward tho scene of conflict, with the purpose, it is supposed, of arresting the living and of bringing in the dead, to hold a 7osf mortem, but they were not as dead men, so escaped another way, and both still live to fight some other day.

If our merchants cotilU receive goods in this time, which Is all that be consumed in transportation, there would be no complaint. Twelve to fifteen day is too long no reason for the delay. Horses lost, "strayed or stolen," is the ever-recurring cry of fanners and others in this section of country. "When the means of easily guarding stock is so inadequate, and the opportunities, for stealing them so many, their owners ought to make provision for remuneration in case of loss. This can be done by calling on T.

Piekerell, Hotel do Horse, who is agent for the National Live Stock Insurance Co.

Purgatives in some shape are iiuIispeustiMe in the practice of medicine. Many diseases are incurable without them, and all of the simple disorders of the system are benefi ted hy their use. The great desideratum ia their admin ministration has been to pet one which was either laxative or purgative, as waa needed always mild hut always efficient and the use of which did not make it necessary to continue its use. This has at hwt been. done.

Edward Wildest Family PilU fulfill all the requirements of the case. They are a lax-ative, yet sure; purgative, yet mild. In small uses they meet the first want; in large doses they fulfill the latter. But iu whatever quantity given they create no necessity for their nsc; they create 110 morbid state of the alimentary tube, but leave It cleansed and urge it to renewed health. They are, in brief, a blessing to the individual who suffers from constipation and needs a laxative, and are indispensable to him who is parched with fever and requires a purgative Use them, all you who value health.

Helminthology. A distinguished physiologist has declared that it seems to be a principal of nature that every situation capable of supporting living organic bodies shouM Iks peopled with them. The huge whale is often driven to madness by an almost invisible number of the great tribe of vermes. The history of Helminthology abounds in illustrations of the Influence of worm the production of disease and iu the exasperation of their symptoms. The frequency of worms in the bodies of men, thoir obviousness to the senses, together wiih their common connection with enfeebled and morbid states of the animal economy, all tend to render them an object of interest from the remotest periods.

The very ablest minds have been devoted to the study of these entozoa with the view of discovering some substance which was capable of speedily, sttfely and permanently expelling them from the human system. Edward Wilder MoVier's Won Syrvp is a true vermicide, a genuine worm destroyer, bona fid vermifuge Its taste is delightful, its effects are quick. its results unfailing, It is free from danger. No intestinal worm can live in its presence. Mothers! destroy the worms which infest your little ones, with thU delightful syrup.

Dr. Laennec. This renowned Frenchman did mor, perhaps, to clear up the mystery which before his time had invested the nature of chest diseases than any other physician who ever lived. Tet with all his skill in detesting the nature and form of the malady befote him, he was sadly deficient in his knowledge of remedies. He drew vivid pictures of coughs, colds, pleurisy, consumption, croup, bronchitis, catarrh, and all the affections of the air passages, still he left but few words concerning their treatment.

The youngest physician to-day knows better how to manage any one of these chest troubles he knows the value of the wild cherry; he is acquainted with its supreme virtues; he is aware of the many potent agents which enter into the combination of Edward Wilder Corn' pound Extract of Wild Cherry and knows that with the use of this truly great medicine he is fully master of the situation. He has no fear in the presence of croup, no misgivings at the advance of bronchitis; he grapples with consumption, and subdues every cough, cold or catarrh. Hence every family should always have this invaluable medicino at hand. Indigestion, Which makes sleep a pain, and turna its balm to Is, we all know, the most common of all the disorders of the stomach. It is also the most obstinate.

It been the most written about. Xo distjaaj presents such various, contrary and incompatible symptoms. They contradict all the laws of order, constancy and consistency, which regulate natural events they bother the doctor, aud can only be read by him who is skilled in the book of nature. It is self evident that the different forms of indigestion are to be met by corresponding methods of cure. It has been said that the perfection of medical skill is the talent of applying to each individual case its precise, and, as it were, its individual enre.

This is the object which every conscientious physician pursues unceasingly, and never can rest satisfied until he has overtaken. Edward Winder's Stomach Eitfers, their body being the purest of copper distilled whisky, make this object attainable to They nro a specific the disease specifying the remedy, not the remedy tho disease. Thev are a combination of substances which meet the specialty of the disorder by a corresponding specialty ot cure. They should be kept in every well-regulated family; they are indispensable to health. Guadianna River.

The British army, when it advanced on Talavara and fought that celebrated battle, which was followed by a retreat into the plains, lost more men by malaria' diseases contracted on the banks of ths Gaadianna than by the bullets of the enemy. They died by thousands. All Europe believed that the il.vading r. my extirpated. Yet malarial diseases are do more common in Europe than in pur country; they exis' throughout the length and breadth of our land-every where at some time aud in some shaje are we made to feel the sickening influence of miasm.

The three great actors in this equation of disease are solar lieat moisture, and vegetable decomposition. The trio separate are harmless, together they are more potent for evil than any other known agents long as they exist, just bo long will we have need of a medicine which will overcome their pernicious effects; so long will it be necessary to have a i emedy capable of meet ing and beating the insiduons enemy. Of all known agents for this purjiose, none is to compare with Ed" ward WSdcr't Chill Tonic, the master of every form and variety and grade and degree of malarial disease and miasmatic poison. Try it, all of yon who are suffering from any form of ague and fever or chills an4 fever, as a cure is guaranteed in every case. St.

Louis Hospital, Paris This ancient institution is one of the largest, and to the medical student, most interesting of the many public charities which adorn the gay capital of he French.

They were esteemed by the re nowned physicians who had charge of the skin de partnient as well-nigh specific in almost every varie ty cutaneous disease, whether of rLeumatic or scrofu" Ions or simple origin. They were given in tetter, ring worm, nettle-rash, rose-rash pimples, scrofula, ulcers old sores, falling of the hair, ect.

In all they dil good, in most they effi-cted a cure. Rut it has remain ed for Edvrard Wilder Sariapcrrilla and I'vlath to perform tho most remarkable cures awarded to any known medicine. It possesses virtues shared by no other combination of these substances. It is a therapeutic marvel. Against all the diseases at which it is aimed it is simply resistless; it never fails, free to it that you suffer not one day longer with any of the ills which it cures.

Editor Ottawa Journal: In your last week's paper I noticed a call made by you on the dealers in Reapers and Mowing machines in Ottawa, and manufacturers of the same to meet near the town and have a grand test of reaping and mowing. You have stated the 15th of July, which is too late. All the wheat in this section will be in the shock by that time wheat will be ripe here the 25th of this month.

As the agent of the Reaper, I am willing to enter upon a trial of reapers and mowers, as vou have suggested. Such a trial would be a great benefit to the farmers of our prairies.
