FORTY BOARDER8 POISONED
WITH ARSENIC m HOT CORN
BREAD.

From the ST. Louis Democrat, Sept. ~
Yesterday morning the boardcrs Mt
Mrs. Finci's boarding house, at the
southwest corner Of Eighth and Olive
streets, were delighted at the abundant
supply of nice hot corn bread set be-
fore them. They partook freely of the
bread, which was nicely Drowned on
both sides and had a swecter flavor
than usual. The cook was praised for
her skill in getting up hot corn bread,
and the butter melted away with mar
velous rapidity. .
After breakfast the boarders gathered
In the sitting room, rs usual, to ex-
change the compliments of the day.
read the morning papers and discuss
the war news. They had not been
there long before n Of them-a
young man whose appetite for hot corn
bread had been immense-jumped up
and ran into the back yard. Another
and another followed, until all the
boarders, eleven In number, were try
ing to relieve themselves Of the retch-
ings In their stotnuchs.
Good gracious !" cried the young
man with the big appetite. II am
poisoned" 80 am II" said another,
and the word went from mouth to
mouth, in the intervals Of the retch-
ingS. that the whole house was pol
soned. Some rushed to the nearest
doctors offices. SOME went to bed. and
some threw themselves on the sofas
and prepared to "Sive up the ghost"
Several physicians were called In,
and IL was a%scertaiued that the bread
eating boarders were suffering from
.arsenical poison.
An investigation Of the cause re-
y.aled the fact that II girl had
mixed arsenic with corn meal IN n
saucer for the purpose Of killing rats!
Another girl, Of All economical turn
of mind, seeing the mixture In the
saucer and sapposing It to be all corn
meal, frugally emptied 1t into the meal
barrel. The next morning the cook
served up hot corn bread to the
b~oardcrs, and unwittingly placed some
of the arsenic IN the batter.
Proper remedies were administered
by the physician, md at last accounts
all the boarders werc In n fair way to
recover, except the young man with
the ~voracious appetite, who disappeared
through the back gate and has not been
seen since. Mr., .VankirE, Of Siegel &
Bobb's, Is still confined to his bed. 1t
Ia believed that IN a day or two all the
boarders will BE- restored, but the
boldest of them will not venture here
after to indulge iu the luxury of hot
corn bread. :.
Mr.. L~.udlngton and wife. Mr.. and
Mrs. John A.. Harter. Mr.. Mcdonald,
grocer at Eigth and Locust streets, a
little girl four years old, two female
servants aud several others were
poisoned. Mr.. and Mrs. Beach, and
the landlord and his wife, escaped by
being late ut breakfast; and several
others, who were not fond Of corn
bread, missed the dosing.

The new law Of Congress, passed at
the last session, reducing tho number
of stamps required on commercial pa
per, went into effect on the lst Of this
month. 4 brief synopsis Of the new
law may be Of interest to the public.
There will now be TO stamps required
any receipt for money, whether for
a large or small amount. All sight
checks drawn on any bank, banker or
Trust Company, whatever the amount,
will require a two-cent stamp as here
tofore |; all sight checks or money Or
ders drawn on any private individual,
or company, or corporation, not In the
banking business, will also require a
two-cent stamp, IL the amount exceed
ten dollars. All notes of hand, and
due bills Of every description, for a
less sum than 800, will require no
stamp. All %promisory notes amount
Ing to 800 and over are to be stamped
as heretofore. And all mortgages
transferred, sold or assigned after oc-
tober LIST will require no new stamp II
the original has been once duly stamped
when 1t was executed. All taxes on
sales, except such as are now paid by
stamps and except the tax on sales Of
tobacco, snuff, cigars, spirits and wines,
will now cease. The returns for Sep
t .mber were the last to be required I'M
der the law as 1t stands. Licenses and
spscial taxes assessed by the year will
run to May 1st, except the tax on
brewers and dealers In distilled spirits
and tobacco. The inquiry has been
made AZ to what shall be done with
the two-cent receipt stamps hereafter?
That stamp Is used In common for re-
ceipts, checks, and whatever else might
be covered with the same amount.
Those who have bought them to be
used solely for receipts, can use them
for any other purpose requiring \ rev.
enue stamp. Ten Of them, with a five
cent stamp, would cover a power Of
attorney, and in various ways they
may be utilized until the stock Is ex-
hausted.

TAXATION IN NEW YoRx.-Hereto-
fore il has been the custom In the State
Of New York to assess property In the
city at about Its real value, while the
estates In the country were placed at
only one-third. This discrepancy at
tracted the attention Of the Legisla-
ture, and last year q Board for the
equalization of valuations was ap-
pointed. The result Of tho operations
Of this Board has been as follows: The
assessed valuation Of the real estate In
New York City was returned at 1884,
40, 76S, and In the country at $Sls,-
$50, 13s, making a total for the entire
State Of 81, $50, 720,9 07. The Board of
Equalization, taking the latter figures
as a standard, reduced the valuation OF
the real estate In the city by $37, 10000
or to $oi7, 40, 7es, and raised the valu-
alton In the country to 1855, $50, l3s.
The assessed valuation Of the personal
property in the City Of New York was
placed at 1921, l42, e9S, and In the coun-
try ut sl53. l37, $50, making a total OF
$l24, $50, 27S. The Board Of Falua-
ton, however, has increased the as
sessed value of the personal property
IN the entire State nearly five times, or
to 81, 967, O0l. ls5. Thus the personal
property in New York City has been
increased from $2sl, l42,696 to $685.
2s3,46l. In Kings county, including
Brooklyn, It has been raised from 49,
27s,6 sos to $l94, l06, 45l In Westches-
ter county, from 81, 1885, 54 to $5s,s2s,-
$50; in Erie, from $ll,43l,6 $50 to s52,-
so4, $40 and In Albany from $780,
$40 to S47,e6s,s79 The Board of
Equalization consists Of the Lieuten-
ant Governor, Secretary Of State, State
Controller, State Treasurer, Attorney
General, State Engineer, Speaker Of
the State House Of Representatives,
and three Commissioners Of the Land
Office.

convey no very definite impression, and
perhaps more vivid idea of the size may
De gained by comparing it with that OF the
earth, whose entire area is less than
tenth part of that just given
1hls Is the area of the penumbra-an
immense expanse of variegated forms,
crossed by channels and convergent
streams OF luminous matter, all shifting
under an action like that of some whirl-
wind which is twisting them from one po-
sition to another and changing their forms
from hour to hour The current some
times appears to rush downward, carrying
with 1t great masses of the luminous mat
ter to lower depths, and opening as it does
to black cavities of size commensurate
with the scale on which this action is car
ried on.
The largest of these cavities is seen to
be overhung with parts of the brilliant sur
face, which visibly break away in enor-
NOUS portions and sink in it out of sight.
Indeed, it is quite within the truth to say
that globe the size of the world might
be dropped in without touching either side.
1t is impossible to convey an adequate idea
of the impression of intimate and exhaust
less energy of which one is conscious
while beholding this with adequate optical
aid. Masses the size of whole continents
are utterly changed in shape and disap-
pear from one day to another, sometimes
while the observer watches them, and the
whole pot is to all appearance being
slowly rotated by the cyclones which are
visibly working there
This is one of the many centres of simf-
lar action, not all on the same scale, but
battling the eye by their number and in
cessant change of form, which the draughts-
man ]abors after in vain, and which even
the photograph can but impertectly rem
der. At one of our largest observatories
the photograph is employed to make daily
chart of these changes, and an inspec-
ton of its truthful and unbiased record
will convey a more conclusive sense of
the almost awful magnitude and energy
of the solar forces than the most vivid
description.
One who has been accustomed to watch
them must feel the inadequacy of any at
tempt to describe these "spots," and still
more so of the futility of trying to convey
his own impression by any extravaganza
of description or comparison.
The wonder must lie in the considera-
ton of authentic measurements, which
are left to tell their own story
The public may not share the interest of
the professional observer in such matters,
but our own planet is too intimately con-
nected with these phenomena not to make
them claim some interest from all of us.
Why the magnetic needles move respon-
sively to these great changes in the sun,
or why auroras will light up our winter
sky at intervals more frequently repeated
as this solar action is more violent, are
questions which astronomy is now trying
to answer The fact that they do so is
certain the cause is still wholly unknown
to science

THE SPOTS ON THE Sun.

From the Pittsburg (Pa) Commercial, Sept 27.l
OBSERVATORY, ALLEGHANY, Sept. 26, 20.
The appearance of spots on the sun large
enough to be visable to the naked eye is a
rare occurrence, but it may now be motto
ed by any one who takes the trouble to OBJ
serve them. The aspect of the sun
through large telescope is one just now
of singular interest, and it seems to claim
special attention from observers.
Here, where the remarkable changes of
the solar surface have formed the subject
of repeated observation daily maps of the
position of the spots are made, and their
singular variations have been the subject
of most interested scrutiny.
The area of one of the large spots,
which is now near the centre of the disc,
has been computed from careful measure
ments and found to exceed $500, 900, 900
square miles. Such immense numbers
