Death of Judge Curtis.

Hon. BENJAMIN II. Curtis, of Boston. Ia
kinsman Of Maj. Henry Curtis, Jr. of this
city, of the law firm of Osborn X Curtis,
died at Newport, r. l., on Tuesday He
was, says the Chicago Tribune, one of the
highest scholars in that famous class OF
1929 whose achievements haye so often
been told in verse by Holmes; and the
maturity of his character and clearness of
his intellect were conspicuous even in those
days. His statement of a case in the col
lege societies was of singular force aud
perspicuity. 1t was hardly necessary to
argue question after he had stated it.
He graduated with high honors, and en-
tered the Law School, where his talents
were at once recognized. He began prac-
tice in Greenfield, and afterwards removed
to Boston, where he resided at the time
OF his death, lie was a member of the
Corporation OF Harvard College from 1916
TO 1871, when he was appointed TO the Su-
preme Bench. Mr.. Curtis resigned his
position on the Bench because he felt il
necessary to provide for his family. His
law practice was one of the most lucrative
in New England. Though he studiously
kept aloOf from politics he was the candi
date of the Democrats in the memorable
Senatorial contest of last year, and no can
didate found more unwavering support.
He was also a member of the Commission
on the new city charter. His name was
frequently mentioned in connection with
the Chief Justlceship before the appoint
msnt Of Judge Waite, He was thrice

The Cairo Bulletin wants to know

feeling OF vague bodily discomfort, which does
not amount to positive Illness and yet is incompat
ble with health, is often aptly described by the
phrase, Not very WE'LL This feeling usually
arises from q deficiency of the nervous power
which is required to keep the vital machinery in
vigorous and healthful operation. Nervous weak
nees has too frequently turned out to be the pre-
lude Of some serious malady to admit OF any doubt
in the matter. Inactivity Of the bodily functions
surely begets their arrangement as cause pre-.
cedes effect
1t is therefore absolutely essential for the preser-
walton of health perhaps of life itself, that this
warning should be promptly needed. The case
does not admit of delay Revitalize The system at
once and effectually with Hosletters Eitters-that
peerless invigorant which, by infusng new health
and strength into the system. protects it against
disease more surely than ever knight of old was

The ravages of the grasshoppers, pro
ductive as they have been in distress and
suffering, have hitherto been unattended
by loss of life. Late adyices from the de,
vastated localities chronicle the death OF
one person, the direct effect of the terrible
| locust plague, \ few months ago fam
| lily arrived and settled in Kansas, in the
vicinity of Lawrence. They came from
the Western portion of South Carolina, the
clay eating district One of their number,
daughter about Is years of age, was a
confirmed clay eater, aud for time was
subjected to great distress because of her
inability to crafty her peculiar habit. At
last she discovered a deposit of clay, SINH
lar in quality to that with which she in.
dulged her taste when in her Carolina
home Long deprivation had sharpeued
her appetite, and large quantities Of the
earth were devoured. In short time her
/ body began to enlarge, showing every indi-
cation of dropsy her desire for the clay
abated, and strange mania for green
vegetables, grass. and grain manifested it
self The family physician was called,
but the case was beyond the limits Of his
knowledge. The patient rapidly grew
worse. She complained of intense pain.
and could obtain relief only by sitting in
crouched, frog-like attitude. At last the
grasshoppers that had been destroying the
growing crops rose like a cloud, and, with
laundering sound, took their departure
for new and undevastated localities On
hearing the noise the girl rushed from the
house, aud, gazing wistfully at the myriads
of insects in the air, raised her arms
tapped them several times, as if she. too
would join the departing hosts, aud then
fell dead. \ post mortem examination
disclosed the fact that her stomach was
crowded with full fedged orttoptera. The
theory by which their presence Is account
ed for is, that the clay eaten by the girl
was filled with the ova of the insects. and
that the natural heat of her body warmed
them into life and being.

Getting up Steam for the Presidency.

Our correspondents in Maine say that
Mr.. Blaine is determined to secure an ex-
aggerated majority in his district, which is
largely Republican, in order to create the
appearance of being very popular among
his people, and that he has just put up
$4,000 to be spent in his district for that
purpose. All the available livery teams
in the district have been engaged in adj
vance for election day, and every appli-
ance possible will be brought to bear to &C
eomplish his purpose. We do not learn
that the same appliances being used in
the other districts Of Maine, and if they
are not we shall have good opportunity
to see just how much effect the spending
of SO much money in a single district will
have. A $4,000 popularity is not such
as would generally be preferred, but it
suits Rag Money Protectionist like Mr..
Blaine. ~ Y World, before election.
