Sheridan Gay, the husband, shot himself on
the cars between this city and Providence in

The Boston Advertiser says:
1t is not difficult to discover that the notice
issued to Butler delegates, to go to Worces-
ter prepared to stay, means that their candi-
date intends to resort to the tactics of delay
and fiibustering if he finds himself outnum-
bered. He apparently supposed he could
have monopoly of this sort of manevring
if he engaged the halls and hotels of Worces-
ter. If the self-sacrifice of the delegates
elected to oppose him is equal to reasonable
demands, he will find himself mistaken. The
people of Worcester will do their duty.
Every delegate should go determined not to
be worried into defeat by any possible delay,
and Worcester will see to the rest. The Spy
of yesterday said;-
SIT is possible that, owing to the number
of contesting delegations and perhaps other
causes of delay, the organization of the con-
| vention may not be completed in time to dis
pose of all the business in one day. Dele
gates should therefore come prepared to stay
as long as may be necessary. 1t would be
unjust to their constituents, and betrayal of
the confidence placed in them, to leave their
friends when their help is needed. Let all
make their arrangements to remain till
Thursday or Friday, IF need be. A circular
profess eddy emanating from the Butler COM
mittee, exhorts the friends of that candidate
to come with three days rations, and by that
time our supplies will come up Their OBJ
ject is to weary out their opponents by de-
lays, trusting that the supporters of other
candidates will be unable to unite. and, after
the first day, so many of them will have gone
home as to leave the Butterflies in majority.
We must be prepared to defeat such tactics.
Delegates need apprehend no difficulty in
finding quarters, for the hospitality Of Wor-
cester will prove equal to all demands upon

The Boston papers pnblish an explanation

ne Boston papers publlsh an explanation
of Mrs. E. c. Mtchell's disappearance. 1t
seems that she has been unhappy in domestic
relations, and desired separation from her
husband Instead of proceeding in a straight
forward way to accomplish her end, she I'M
| wisely conceived the romantic idea of disap-
pearlng, and, when the excitement over her
supposed death had blown over of earning a
livelihood, under an assumed name, by her
musical talents, which are of a high order.
Her design became known to an intimate
friend OF the family, young man, who vol
unteered to assist her in carrying it out. "
met her in Boston and registered her as
sumed name at one of the hotels. She re-
manned but two or three hours and then took
her departure, ostensibiy for New York, en-
route for Detroit, but really to another hotel
in the city. There the young man committed
the indiscretion of registering Mrs Mitchell
as his wife, under his real name. He left and
did not return to the hotel while
Mrs. Mitchell remained, which was
but day or two, as she then became an
inmate in highly respectable family in that
city. This blunder, which the young man
most keeRly regrets, led to the discovery of
the lady by her husband, as already related
but it also unfortunately threw upon Mrs.
Mitchell the scandal of criminal escapade,
of which she is as innocent as babe. She
still remains in Boston, but is in critical
| OF the past two weeks. As soon as she is
| able to travel she will return with her hrs-
band to Detroit. He is entirely satisfied of

This is an age of inquiry and people are
beginning to realize the magnitude Of the
svil caused by the use of injurious compounds
for the hair, which are prepared and forced
into market, by men who are not practical
physicians, and who may not be aware Of the
injury they are producing. These prepara-
tions have been analysed by competent chem
lists, and shown to contain poisonous sub
stances, causing Nervousness, Headache, Par"
alysis, and often fatal results.
In contrast with such injurious articles, we
call attention to the Hair Restorer prepared
by DR.. R. Greene, Superintendent of the Bos-
ton Medical Institute, who has been sue
ccssful physician in Boston for more than
quarter of century. DR.. Greene uses Veg
etable Remedies only, and can assure the pub
lie that this Hair Restorer will do all that is
claimed for it, without possibility of injury.
"Thave tested a sample Of Or. Grsens's Hair
Restorsr, and find that no poisonous metals or
Injurious matters e1ist IN ii.
CT JACKSON, State Assayer."
The use Of this Hair Restorer for twenty
FIVE years has tested its superiority as dress
ing, and its power to preserve the hair and
scalp in a healthy condition. 1t removes
dandruff, prevents the hair from falling of,
preserves its natural color, restores it when
prematurely gray, renders it soft and glossy,
promotes its healthy growth, and is the best
dressing ever discovered. While other prep
arations are sold at almost any price, DR..
Greene's Hair Restorer has sustained its good
qualities, its price, and its reputation. It is
