Items from Needy.
Needy, March 22d, 1873.
Editor Enterprise ; Thinking a few
items from this place would not be amiss,
we subjoin the following:
Farmers aro busy preparatory to putting
in their spring crops.
The political cauldron begins to boil, in
consequence, ol tuo approaching election
Tl 5 a imff wnt lifir iu nt-h Hin mini
and farmers are happy to think they will

Mr. W m. Moreland. our obliging post
master, departed for east of the mountains
last Saturday, to !e absent a few weeks.
Mr. W. W II. Samson, of this neighbor
hood, will boa candidate before the Re
publican county convention for the ollico
ot siierm.
The young ieoole of Needy and vicinity
assembled at tho residence of Mr. Dar-
neillo last Wednesday evening to trip the
light fantastic, ami, judging from what we
saw, they had a way up time.
St'llSCUIBER,
Coralline Jjkds. One ot the proprie
tors of the Oswego Tron Works, on the
Willamctteo went up the valley, says the
Taw una Herald, tho other day to examine
the lteds of coralline we havo frequently
mentioned, to investigate the advisability
ot taking lime trom tuere tor the use ot
the iron works. Chemists of Portland
havo examined the coralline, and pro
nounce it the purest torm ot lime Known
It would seem to lo particularly adapted
to the use for which this firm would want
it much lietter than the stone lime, for
limestone is a carlKuate of lime, whereas
tho coralline, being entirely free from
cartKin (which is entirely useless, if not
an encumbrance in the iiso of lime as a
llux), must I Hi more valuable, arid a given
amount must le more effective than ttie
stone lime. Air. Brown, of the Oswego
Iron Witrks, vflio went up the valley with
Judge .Lewis last Saturday to visit the
beds near Alderton, was well satisfied as
to the extent of the deposit, and if the
lime is suitable for the use of the Iron
Works, the supply needed by the Oswego
Company will be taken from these coral
line beds. Ten tons will be sent to the
Iron Works for trial sometime next
month.
Narrow Escape. A boy named Moore,
of Canemah, fell in the basin Last Sunday
and came near finding a watery grave.
He was talking, and leaned back to rest
on the railing, but it happened there was
no railing, aiid he toppled over into "the
basin. He could not swim, and the water
being very deep, he would have drowned
had not his brother, a young man of t-bout
20 years, jumped in after hiirf, and after
his brother hail sank under the water
made a dive and fortunately caught him
and brought him safe to the bank. This
is the second accident of this kind within
a short time, and it would be well to have
a good railing placed along the walk, or
else people must not be so absent minded.
John Doe on His Ear. John Doe
sends us a communication,, but fails to
sign his name. We presume he is the
"hero" of "Disgraceful Conduct" item
which apjxjared last week. Ho advises
the people of Hungry Hollow, who feel
agrieved about that party, to crawl
through a knot hole and then draw the
hole in after them, which we would not
advise the people of Hungry Hollow to
do, as election time is drawing near and
tho candidates are so numerous that we
must have a few to act as delegates. He
also refers to clean underclothes, bed
'steads, etc. , but our modesty would not
allow us to mention it.

Ellsworth. Kansas, and was going from

are pouring into that country by the thou
sands. The people there say at tho rate
of about 4,000 daily, but he thinks it is
slightly exaggerated.

England, according to tho London
Times, recognizes that the old state b
things in Turkey cannot be restored
and 13 disposed to push forward the
Greeks as the successors of tho Turks
in the Balkan peninsula. This is the
reriVftl f a scheme that has been un
der discussion before. The theory is
that the rarest way to save Constanti
nople from Jlussia is to give it at once
to the Greeks, and that the best way to
meet Russian aggression in the name of
the Greek Church is with a Greek Em
pire founded on the rai.13 of the Turk
ish Empire.

A Gentle Hint.
In our style of climate, with its sudden
changes of temperature, rain, wind and sun
shine often Intermincled in a sinirlo day. it
is no wonder that our children, friends and
relatives are so frequently taken from us by
neglected coldR, half the deaths resulting
directly from this cause. A bottle of Boschee's
German Syrup kept about your home for im
mediate use will prevent serious sickness, a
large doctor's bill, ard probably death, by tho
use of three or lour doses. For curing Con
sumption, Hemorrhages, Pneumonia, Severe
Coughs, Croup or any disease of the Throat or
Lungs, its success is simply wonderful, as
your druggist will tell you. Ueiman Syrup is
now sold in every town and village on this
continent. Sample bottles, for trial, 10 cents ;
regular size, 75 cents.
By mil vernal accord, AYEIt'S CATTIARTIC
Pili.3 are the best of ail purgatives for family
use. They arc the product of long, laborious
and successful chemical investigation, and
their extensive use, by physicians tn their
practice, and by all civilized nations, proves
them the best and most cflVctual purgative
pill that medical science can devise. Being
imrely vegetable, no harm een arise from
their use. In Intrinsic value and curative
powers no other pills can be compared with
them, and every person knowing their virtues
will employ them when needed. They keep
the system in perfect order, and maintain in
healthy action the whole machinery of life.
Mild, searching and effectual, they are speci
ally adapted to the needs of the digestive
aparatus, derangements of which they pre
vent and cure, if timely takCD. They are the
best and safest physio to employ for children
and weakened constitutions, where ft mild,
but effectual cathartic is required, tlx. fcalo
by all jlrugglsts.
