We perceive from the reports in the
papers that "Julius Cesar recently pre-
SIDED alta meeting ID New York. y our
iinpresslen was eba4 fhis sensinent man
was ~dead-that ne was Stabbed with
butcher-knives, over in Rome, several
years ago, by some of his friends. But,
apparently, we were misinformed. We
are rather glad that he is yet alive, be-
cause now becan correct the mistake ne
made in writing his Commentaries in
Latin. They should have been written
in English, of course, so that schoolboys
would have less annoyance in trying to
resad them. We also. sincerely hope
that he has reformed his scandalous
practice of going without trowsers.
Ftfhen~Ye knew him in Rome, years
Iako, he always refused to dreSs himself
| properly; and heAgaye, Is hsEeas0n,
that he was obliged to remove his pam
taloons so that he could wade more COM
Ifortatly when he crossed the Rubicon;
and heS made solemn vow that, if he
got over safely, he would go bare-leg-
ged for the rest of his life. We have
some hesitation about referring to an
other matter Of sonhs delieacy in this
connection. We do not wish to press
Julius too harshly, but if he can return
those two dollars which he borrowed
from us to pay for having his sandals
half-soled, he will relieve the urgent ne
leeSsity of o man who behaved gener-
puslytO him when he was In trouble.

Every year increases the popuIari-
tyof this valuable Hair Preparation 81
which is due to merit alone. Weu
can assure our old patrons that 1t IS q
kept fully up to its 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 its use, becomes white
and clean. 1t removes all eruptions
and dandruf, and, by its tonic prop
critics, prevents the hair from falling
out, as it. stimulates and nourishes
the hair4glands. By its use, the hair
grows thicker and stronger. In
badness. it restores the capillary
glands to their normal yigor, and
will create a new growth, except in
extreme old age. 1t is the most eco
nomical HAIR DRESSING ever used,
as it requires fewer applications,
and gives the hair asplendid, glossy
appearance. A. A. Hayes, MD
State Assayer of Massachusetts,, says,
"The constituents are pure, and care
fully selected for excellent auality;

BUILDING IN OTTAwA-Among the csrpsn.
ters and builders in Ottawa our friend JOSIAH
Pope is about the Oldest resident, and none has
had more uniformly high reputation for the
excellence of mis- work. Most of our best resi-.
dences owe their graceful proportions and adorn-
ments to his genius and handiwork We are
| therefore pleased to learn that the work of en-.
larging the Supreme Court building in Ottawa
has been awarded to Mr., Pope, and that he has
already commenced work. The part to be done
by Mr.. Pope under his present contract will
cost about $1,000, although the entire sppro.
priation of 100000 will doubtless be exhausted
BY the time all the improvements contemplated
are finished-Mr Pope has also just entered in.
to contract with the Ottawa Gas Co. for the
| erection of their new gas works on Walker st.,
upon which some $4,000 are to be expended
| the present season. This work, also, is already
under full headway, and when finished will give
Ottawa the finest gas works of any city of its
size in the west.

day evening last, to greet the Ottawa Dramatic

which occasion "'The Idiot Witness aud Poor

performance by our popular amateurs only adds

Tuesday evening they fairly eclipsed themselves.

Suicide.

Gerhardt Heinrich Schneider, a well known
tobacconist of this city, who has resided here for
fifteen years, and by careful management of bust.
ness had acquired more than competency,
committed suicide on Wednesday morning last
by taking arseric. The evidence submitted to
the Jury on the coroners inquest settled the fact
that he had for some time been delirious, and,
perhaps, almost in state Of Insanity. He had,
on previous occasion, threatened to take his life
oy poison, and had kept arsenic about his person,
as he said, to kill rats, and, at another time TO
Kill himself, as he averred. DR.. Hard. who has
been his medical adviser for many years, having
lately discovered that Mr. Schneider was liabl.
TO be subject TO mania potu, had advised his
f1mily to prevent him, if possible, from partak.
ing of alcoholic stimul4nts. On the evening Of
his death, be seemed 10 be haunted with the idea
that some great wrong had been done to him bv
the union cigar makers, and it is probable tina,
as he was very sensitive person they may have
carried their jokes 30 far as to have done him in
Jury, not in fact, but as he supposed. He came
home about o'clock id the afternoon Of Tues.
day, resumed his place in his shop, and appar.
emily attended to his duties az usual. Having
sick child in the house, DR.. Hard was sent for.
who discovered by the unfortunate mans coun.
tenance tendency to deliriun, and again eau.
toned the family TO watch him closely. After
supper he announced to his family that he had
taken arsenic, and that ne would be dead man
before morniug, attributing his death TO the ci.
ger makers. As he had frequently made similar
threats and like statements. Mrs Schneider did
not feel uneasy; bu. afterwards his symptoms
becoming alarming, she called in some Of her
neighbor-. He asked for glass of water. and
the moment he drank it, most violent vomiting
and retchiIg ensued. Then she at once sent for
DR.. Hard, who arrived only six minutes previous
to the Death Of the hspless man.
Th' -oroner's jury, after careful investigation
Of al the evidence adduced, rendered tie follow.
Ing verdict: THAT the deceased came 70 hi.
