The deal has at last teen ooruu nmat- ed by whlcn the Dieterioh syndicate of New York capitalists gains control of the Logaoeport natural gas company's plant. The finishing touches were placed on the deeds yesterday with a more or lees artistic touch, and the cash was paid to the old company.

What the amount of the consideration was, could not be learned, as the parties to the transaction saw fit to keep the matter quiet. The statement was made that a fair price had been given, and that both sides were satisfied. The amount probably paid for the plant has been variously estimated, the general opinion being that not less than $500,000 was paid for the property. To James Mardock. of Lafayette, Is eaid to belong the credit of effecting the sale.

A moment later his voice comes down sharp for a man who has been married but six months. "It isn't on the dresser," he says. "Why, yes, it must be, dear. Look in the upper drawer in that long-, blue box in the left-hand corner. Don't muss thing-s all up.

Justice Block. JOHNSON WAS DRUNK. THE CONCERT EEL. It IlkR Uceo Known tu Attain a Length of Ten Feet. There are three conger eels at the New York aquarium, nuiging from to 4 feet in length, and from three to five pounds in weight; the conger ec-1 sometimes grows to be ten feet in leng-th.

Some fishermen call the conger eel the round-tail eel; among- anglers, who sometimes catch them from the Ing but Jive dog-s, and these will be furnished from the dog- pound. When it is thought tho monster is hungry a homeless cur will be put into the pen with it. A board will be extended over the water, and, following 1 its natural instinct, the dog will run out on this board and bark at the alligator. Then there will be a sudden snap and silence, and there will be one less dog on earth. The last menl this alligator had was a costly one.

Its keeper had prepared the board, as usual, and was going- for a cur dog- when his pat English pug- suddenly became saucy and ran out and barked from the board. The keeper rushed back, but was only soon enough to sec the terrible jaws close on the beautiful pug, for which be had paid twenty-five dollars. CrndJei ror Indian Bablei, When you go through an Indian camp you can see red and green sacks standing against the sides of the tepees, carried on the backs of little girls by means of a blanket which is fastened at the waist with a broad leather belt, or being rocked to and fro by the wind in the boughs of the cottonwood trees. These sacks are Indian cradles. Sometimes, if the camp is going on a long journey in search of game or for water, or to escape a war party, two of these sacks are fastened together by stout stra.ps and swung over the back of a pony, one dangling on each side, like the baskets on a pack But as a rule the horses are left for the men and boj's to ride, and the papooses are either carried by the girls or packed away on a "travoise," which is the only wagon the Indians have.

Noah Ttrooks tells the following story his personal reminiscences of Lincoln in the Century: "All eyes were turned to the main, entrance, where, precisely on tho stroko of twelve, appeared Andrew Johnson, vice president elect, arm in arm witk Hannibal Hamlin, whose term of office was now expiring. They took scats together on the dais of the presiding officer, and Ilaznlin made a brief and sensible speech, and Andrew Johnson, whose face was extraordinarily red, was presented to take the oath. It ic needless to say here that the unfortunate gentleman, who had been very ill, was not altogether sober at this important moment of his life. In order, to strengthen himself for tho physical' and mental ordeal through, which ho was about to pass he had taken a stift drink of whisky in the room of the president, and the warmth of tho ate chamber, with possibly other physical conditions, had sent the fiery liquor to his brain. He was evidently intoil- cated.

I could observe Hamlin nudging Johnson from behind, reminding him that the hour for the inauguration ceremony bad passed. Tho speaker kept on, although President Lincoln sat before him. patiently waiting for his extraordinary harangue to be over.

The study of the faces below was interesting. Seward was as bland and serene as a summer clay; Stauton appeared to be petrified; Welles' was usually void of any expression; Speed sat with his eyes Dennison was reel and white by turns. Among 1 the union senators Henry Wilson's face was flushed; Sunnier wore a saturnine and sarcastic smile, and most of the others turned and twisted in their senatorial chairs as if in long drawn agony. Of the supremo bench. Judge Kelson only was apparently moved, his lower jaw being dropped clean down in blank horror.

Chase was marble, adamant, 1 granite in immobility until Johnson turned his back upon the scnutc to- take the oath, when he exchanged glances with Xelson. who then, closed. up his mouth. When Johnson had repeated inaucli- bl.T the oath of oiice. his hand upon, the book, he turncrd and took the Bible in his hand, and facing the audience said, with a loud theatrical voice and gesture: "I kiss this book in the face of mv nation of the United Slates."
