A ROW IN CHICAGO.

Chicago, December I'd. - The
particulars of row in high life
has lust been made known here,
although every effort is being made
to keep it quiet. The gossipers are
talking, however, and the story is
no longer one persons secret.
Hence I have no hesitation In send
ing you the particulars SO far as L
am able to learn them. For some
time past the Honores, father and
mother, have been boarding at the
Palmer House, without making
weekly settlement of their bills, as
is the custom among other people.
Then came the Colonel Fred.
Grant-Ida Honore wedding, over
which considerable splurge was
made. However, that affair would
never have been consummated but
for the kindly assistance of Potter
Palmer, the proprietor of the hotel,
and Miss Ida's brother-in-law, and
who at almost the last hour gave
orders to hesitating milliners, for
lists, and other fashionable furnish
ers, that he would be personally
responsible for all bills incurred
by the elder Honores.
It was thus that the wedding, OF
which so much was said, occurred
at the private residence of Mr..
Palmer on the boulevard. After
that event had become matter of
secondary importance to the nation,
Mr.. Potter gave notice to his i'm
pecunious father-in-law that he
could no longer be responsible for
his debts, at the same time forcibly
intimating that it would be agree
able to the proprietor of the Palmer
House if Mr.. Honore would pay
up his back board bills. This
Honore refused to do, choosing
rather to move his trunks and go to
the rival establishment, the Grand
Pacific.
A few days ago Colonel Fred
= Grant arrived in the city, and to
Potter's establishment Fred and the
wife went to the Pacific hotel in
stead of the Palmer House. This
so enraged Potter Palmer that he
acted foolishly, among other things
accusing his estimable wife of
taking his money to pay her
parents board-bill at the Pacific.
This she denies; but the indignant
husband stormed and forbade that
his wife should ever again have
anything to do with the Honores.
She refused to obey his orders, and
attempted to leave the house, when
Potter forced her into bedroom,
locked the door, and kept her a
prisoner from 3 o'clock Tuesday
afternoon until yesterday after
noon. He only then released her
upon q promise that she would con-
form to his wishes in every respect.
Meanwhile the lady had communi-
Gated with her relatives, and Col.
Fred Grant took it upon himself to
defend the wounded honor of the
family. He called on Potter, and |
when that gentleman told the dis
tingushed military man that it was
none of his damned business,
Freddy broke into a fearful rage,
and at once challenged the hotel
proprietor to mortal combat. This
is the story told tonight, and the
town is excited with the sensation.

THIS WONDERFUL MAGNETIC ELEC-
TRIO MACHINE will detect infallibly the
seat OF disease. 1t is as true to the magnetic
organization of the body as the needle to the
pole.
Let it not be supposed that DIR. LUscoMB
assumes q belltgerent attitude towards the
members Of the Medical profession. AL
though anxious to modify and elevate their
estimate Of Electricity as a remedial agent,
and to improve their methods of using it, he
has no sympathy with those who profess to
believe, and who assert, that medicines of the
apothecary never effect the cure of disease,
and who contend that the patient would have
recovered quicker and better to have taken no
medicine at all. He knows that such allega-
tons are falss as they are extravagant
NKURALo1C AFFECTIONS are frequently
found difficult, or even impossible, to be
cured by means of medicines, and yet, in the
very same cases. these affections yield and
disappear easily when treated by the wonder
full ELECTRIC CHAIR, as applied according
to the principles Of this new system.

BETTER HAVE BEEN BURIED.

The well-knOwn anti-tobacco lecturer.
Trask. relates the following anecdOte of
himself:
About fifteen years ago, we gave a
lecture on the South Shore, Mass, in
which we aimed to show that, as the
common use of tobacco diminished ap-
petite, blood. muscle, health and
strength, it must inevitably abridge life,
and If so, the habit amounted to suicide
in the constructive sense; hence, it was
a violation of the sixth commandment,
which says, Thou shalt not kill" aDd
hence a sin.
As we closed, n clergyman rose and
observed: II believe the argument in
this lecture is conclusive; ] believe that
thousands Of tObaecO-users are poisoned
to death and are chargeabIe with cutting
short their lives But 1 have difficult
case to solve and wish the lecturer 70
solve it. / knew man within ten miles
of this place who smoked his pipe till
the day of his death; and he lived to be
one hundred and four years old:
We confess we were puzzled. The
question was to the point, and the audi
ence laughed at our expense. At last we
hit upon the SOcratic style Of argument
and interrOgations helped US out Of n
dilemma where grave argument would
have been of no avail. Sir" We in
quired. ''are you sure the old man lived
and smoked till he was 1C4E Yes, The

On Saturday last an itinerant ped
der entered the house of James Tolin,
living near this place, and proceeded to
display his wares to Mrs. TOlin, despite
her assertions that she did not wish TO
buy anything Mr.. Tolin was confined
to his bed. and had been so confined for
many years, being so crippled with rheu-
natism that it had been long impossible
for him to leave his bed unless carried
from IT, After showing his goods, and
Mrs. TOlin not buying anything, the
peddler commenced conversation, In
tie course of which he learned the help
less condition of Mr.. TOlin. Finally he
made an insulting proposal 10 Mrs.
TOlin, and she Indignantly ordered him
to leave the house. Instead he approach
ed and seized hold of her, saving, with
an oath, that she was IN his power, as
her husband was as good as dead Mrs.
TOlin, being a delicate woman, ran
screaming into another room. The ped
dler followed her. and. before she could
escape by the door. caught her again.
y desperate struggle ensued between
them, and Mrs. TOlin, was thrown viO-
lently to the floor by the powerful vii
lain. Mr.. Tolin had been all the time
a witness Of the struggle, lying powerIess
in his bed. AT the sound of his wife
falling ON the floor, however, and her
frantic shrieks Tor aid, ne see med to be
endowed with supernatural power.
Under the influence Of that power,
he spranG from the bed he had been un-
able to leave for years. Selling heavy
crutch that stood near the bed, he rush

regaining her feet, but the peddler had
grasped her around the waist, and was
endeavoring again 10 throw her As
Mr. Tolin entered the room, the singular
spectacle Of a bedridden cripple hasten
ing to the defense Of his wife seemed
to paralyze the seOundrel, and he stood
staring as If in a trance at the approach
of the husband. Nr. TOIin, nerved by
unnatural strength, brought the crutch
down over the head Of the peddler and
felled him ike an OK to the floor. The

he cIasped his hand to bis forehead, and
dropped to the floor, and almost instant

Mrs. Tolin succeeded in getting the
body Of her husband back in the bed
and then started for assistance. She
was obliged to go over a mile before she
was able TO obtain any. When she re-
turned with several EeighbOrs the ped
dIer was gone. He had recovered CON

the house. When the news Of the at
