Uptown Friy0lity,

Eli Perkins, the humorous cores
pondent Of the New York Commercial
Advertiser, thus holds forth in o recent
issue:
There re dozen places uptown
kept by uncertain, but smart matr0ns
where hair-dyeing and enameling are
done to great many good ladies.
These women generally have their en-
amei department in the rear of a milf
merry department or some hair sboD.
They are women traps. An unsuspect
ing married lady went into one of these
places the other day and got caught.
!'Ah! have you heard of my new pre-
paration for the complexion ~ com
menced the woman.
" No, and don't care to know abouf
it, replied the lady.
But it's so harmless Mrs. I. and
Mrs. @. have used it, and they say 1t is
delightful. Now let me just try it on
one of your hands-iust little -
No, don't want it" continued the
lady.
"But let me try one finger. You
can then see how it will look-see how
it will work, and see that it don't ruff
the skin and grow black
80 the lady relented, partly out of
curiosity, and with the thought that
there might be some virtue in it after
ALL
The woman applied the enamel to
the finger, then to the hand. 1t was
beautiful. The lady went home de.
lighted. She looked at her hand for
several days. 1t was smooth and vel
yety-then in fatal moment she re-
turned to the destroyer and had her
face enameled. I asted for two weeks.
Everybody saw -. Her friends were
disguised, but ~ said nothing. New
and doubtful friends praised her beauty
and she--was lost! Her face became
rough, sallow and sickly. She cannot
wash. The bath turns the enamel
black. Her husband is disguised. she
IS melancholy, and the family is broken
up.
A poet interested in the subject of
dying, sends to the Bureau this:

Change DER all is sweetly lying
Angels shall see to-nigt!

Railroad Bonds.

For several months past the Northern Pa
ciic Bonds have been selling at the rate of
million month, and Messrs. Jay Cooke &
Co., the agents, report a brisk and undated
demand thus far in the month of December.
This must be highly encouraging to the com
pany who are building the second great high
way to the Pacific, but is not surprising in
view of the attractions which these Bonds
present. A good railroad and it's traffic are
usually considered security enough for first
mortgage bond, yet the Northern Pacific
Bonds are not only first lien on the Railroad
and its property, but IN addition are a first
mortgage on valuable lands in Minnesota and
the Northwest at the rate of 20, 900 acres for
every mile of road built, Or upwards of So
100000 acres in the aggregate. Every bond
of the denomination of 300, for instance, has
SO acres pledged in it's support, and it is spe-
clally provided in the Company's charter that
the proceeds of all land sales must be applied
to the cancellation of the bonds, as long as
they can be bought at price not exceeding
10 per cent. premium. The bonds, when used
IN purchasing the Company's lands are worth
81: 10 now; and it will probably not be long
before they reach that figure in the market,

Startling Revelations.

From the indianapolis Journal, 9th inst.

From the indianapolis Journal 9th inst.
We present the readers of the Jour
nal this morning a thrilling account of
the recent murders and lynchings in
Clark county, together with many facts
that may lead to the detection, arrest
and punishment of the guilty parties.
1t has been evident for some time that
the officers of the localities where the
bloody tragedies have been enacted are
utterly powerless to enforce the law
Whethertheir inefficiency results from
their ignorance and stupidity, or is
caused by the influence of the barbar-
ians who have shocked the sensibilities
of the nation and disgraced our State
by their savage practices, makes little
or no difference. The result is the same.
and the arm of the law is paralyzed by
the prevalent mobocratic spirit that
seems to bear undisputed sway through
out the county. We determined to do
what we could to learn more of the
truth In relation to the recent horrid
butcheries In that region. and present
the result of our efforts in the report of
our special correspondent, published
in our columns this morning. In order

provided himself with a letter accredit
ing him as the correspondent of the
Cincinnati Enquirer. By means ofthis
high Endorsement he was enabled to es-
tabish the most intimate and confden-
tial relations with several prominent
Democrats of the county, from whom
he learned most of the facts stated in
his communication. He gives the story
of the celebrated fJohnson's confess
sion, with full particulars of the man
ner in which it was wrung from the
wretched man, as he learned them from
one who was present at the time, and
who now declares his belief in the in
nocence of the negroes who were hung
by the mob. He conversed with mem
bers of the Grand Jury who refused to
lndlct the negroes upon the evidence,
and some of whom, tits charged, assist
ed at the horrid orgies of the miscre-
ants who tortured and murdered them.
Altogether, it forms one of the blood
lest and most disgraceful chapters in
the history of our State. and we again
warn the paralyzed and cowardly min
listers of the law in Clark county that

punish these crimes, apower strong and

Every year increases the populari-
ty of this valuable Hair Preparation :;
which is due to merit alone. We
can assure our old patrons that it is
kept fully up to it's high standard
and it is the only reliable and perfect
ed preparation for restoring GRAY
OR FADED HAIR to its youthful color,
making it soft, lustrous, and silken.
The scalp, by It's use, becomes white
and clean. 1t removes all eruption,
and dandruf, and, by its tonic prop
critics, prevents the hair from falling
out, as it stimulates and nourishes
the hair-glands. By its use, the hair
grows thicker and stronger. In
badness, it restores the capillary
glands to their normal vigor, and
will create new growth, except in
extreme old age. It is the most eco
nomical HAIR DRESSING ever used,
as it requires FEWER applications,
and gives the hair a splendid, glossy
appearance. A. A. Hayes, MD,
State Assayer of Massachusetts, says,
"The constituents are pure, and care
fully selected for excellent quality;
and [ consider it the BEST PREPA-
RATION for its intended purposes"

SeVere Weather Out West---Intense
Suffering from Cold.

The Abilene (Kansas) Chronicle has
information that the fall migration in
to the Solomon Valley is unprecedented.
Many families arrived just before the
late storm, and the suffering among
them is terrible. Having no houses,
they are compelled to live in their
" knowing wagons" and the suffering
among the women and childred partic-
ularly, is very severe. To add to the
hardship of the situation, the people
are almost entirely destitute of food !:
many of them have scarcely tasted a
mouthful of bread since reaching the
Valley. They are trying to subsist
mostly upon such game as they may be
able to secure. This institution of af-
fairs exists from Mitchell County
northward, UP both branches of the
river, A great many animals have per.
ished in the valley in consequence OF
the storm, and several persons were
frozen to death. People were totally
unprepared for cold weather, not anti.
cipating that it would set in until some
time in December.
The same paper of the same date, in
another article, says the weather con.
tlnues cold, and many cattle are dying
for want of shelter and feed. The idea
of winter stock without hay is all well
enough when the ground is not cover
ed with snow, but the attempt to carry
$4,000 head, more or less, through the
winter, on the range, is a costly expert
ment this time. We learn that many
cattle are dying up the Solomon Valley.

$50 have persisted within the last few

is unprecedented, SO early in the sea.
