CHICAGO, Oct. 1S.-The papers are still making

fronts OF the Post Office and TeleraphOc with long
lists of names the OF which 1t is impossible to

people.
As anticipated the banks stood the test OF reopen
ing brayey and still better, instead Of calling for de-
pOsits accounts were opened and very little drawn
ont by their customers This inspires the greatest conf
newly-growng trade.
The newspapers here publicly acknowledge the help
derived from the conduct Of the New-York banks In
connection with the money institutions of this city.
When the prospect gloomy the bankers here re-
ceiyed assurances from their NewYork brethren that
time and aid were at their service and this much as
ANYTHING else has sustained the vgor and revived the
spirit and energy OF Chicago captaists FewYork and
poson houses IL Is known have instructed their corre
spondents here to sell to tho Chicago merchants all the

Items for Ladies'.

Riding gauntlets are IN chamois, doe
skin or castor, either white, buff, or stone
color, with deep close cuffs.
For evening toilets, white gloves are
in vogue, but those of the most delicate
tint of straw color, whicR appear white by
gas-light, are the most asstinga1e.
Misses with handsome hair wear it in
two long braids, tied with ribbon bows. a
stylish arrangement is to separate the
braids into two strands near The ends, and
form two curls, pendent from each braid.
Trains for evening wear are very much
shortened, for which the ladies should be
grateful, as SO few are able to carry a
train gracefully, and it is always an in
cumbrance ia crowded assembly, or
when dancing.
White linen collars, of the veritable
nautical shape, are foretold, SO wide at
the back as to resemble little capes.
They are to be supported in front by a
navy knot of crepe de chine, or ribbon.

The LATEST FROM INDIANA.-The
E1hhart Union says that they have learn
ed the following from man who has been
itinerating in that locality on business of
his own: 'sHe called at brick residence
not over two miles out of town, and upon
going into the kitchen saw an object
chained to a chair, having body, limbs,
feet, and hands like human being with
head and face like monkey, entirely
covered with hair, except little ring
around each eye. This man-nonkey. or
whatever it may be called, would, as our
informant states, crawl over the back of
the chair it was chained to, similar to the
monkey tribe, grin and chatter as such
animals do, and its whole movements
were of that order. The lady of the
house owned that she was its mother, but
carried the idea that they kept the case
a secret from the public. This curious
object is several years old, but has to be
kept chained to chair to keep it out of
mischief.

IF the two districts which failed to send in their
reports this year, had reported the same this
year, that they had last year, then we would have
had total of 4,251-a gain of six during the
year. The District reporting the greatest number
of persons between the ages of tour and twenty is
No. S, in which Albany is situated, having 43l
The second is No. AZ, in which Harrisburg is
situated. having 204 scholars. The third is No.
is, in which Lebanon is situated, having 1923
scholars. The Fourth is No. 8, in which Scio is
located, having 112 scholars.
As matter of general interest, will say that

FEMALE DocroRs.-The success of
female DOCTORS SO far, with a few cxcep>
tions, is somewhat remarkable. One OF
them, Miss Mary E, Greene. went out of
her teens and into her medical studies
six years ago. She opened shop in a
neglected quarter of Philadelphia, after
graduating at the medical college there,
and in year had 1900 patients. Last
year she had charge of the Hopper Hos
pital for women, position heretofore
held only by frst-class doctors of the
other sex; is now leading professor in
Bellevue College, down for course of
lectures and the first woman elected a
member Of the Medical Society of New
York city. Others are acquiring equal
celebrity for medical skill.
