A Romance OF Chicago.
[From the Chicago Tribune.

Yesterday evening q pale, thin wo-
man, meanly clad. was seen shivering on
the doorstep of fashionable mansion on
Ashland avenue. Her whole appearance
betokened poverty and misery. The
master of the honse, comparatively
young man, clad in costly fur overcoat,
ran up to the steps at the same moment
and gave the poor creature quarter,
tions of gratitude. 1t seems romantic
but it is fact, that eleven years ago
that young woman lived in that same
mansion, the beautiful, accomplished, i,
and idolized daughter Of wealthy parents.
Two suitors sought her hand-one was &
fashionable young man, the other the
plumbers apprentice, who, while visit
ing her fathers lordly mansion to thaw
out the water-pipes, saw and loved the
beauteous apparition. He profered his
suit in a blunt, manly style, told her
that his time would soon be out, and
showed her how the bills were made out
to meet her objection as to his lack of
fortune. The naughty and infatuated
girl rejected his suit and married the
handsome young man with whom she
sat up housekeeping in the costly man.

plumber rose steadily, became wealthy,
and purchased the family mansion when
the young husband WAS compelled,
through going short on No. 2 spring at
an inopportune moment, to sell out his
property. The young husband took to
drink, and finally was buried in a pau
per's grave, and last evening his starv-
ing widow asked and received aims on
the doorstep of house formerly her
own from the hands of her discarded
lover, now its owner and mil
lionaire. (Slow curtain

Oysters With Bones.

From the Kansas City Journal Of Commerce.
Yesterday Granger-looking gay put
in an appearance at the Loland Hotel
just at dinner time. Seating himself at
the table, he gathered up the bill of
fare, and, running over it few minutes,
said to the waiter who stood beside him
waiting for his order, "You kin bring
me all there is on the bill, for I'm dog
goned hungry" A good dinner was
brought to him, and soon the Granger
was manipulating his knife and fork at
lively rate, making the dishes which
surrounded him fairly clatter A gen.
tleman who sat beside him said to the
waiter, "bring me a Kaw River oyster
dressed in crumbs" This order did not
pass the Granger. No sooner did he hear
it than he said: "Here, my boy, you kin
bring me one of them too" The waiter
hustled out of the room, and soon re-
turned with pigs foot in batter As
soon as it had been placed upon the ta-
BILE, the gray soused his fork into it and
started on his work of demolishing it.
After tearing it partly to pieces, he re-
marked: Isn't this oyster a leetle over
size?" The gentleman to whom the in
terrogatory was addressed replied in the
negative. "Where," said the Granger,
"is this Kaw River?" The desired in
formation was given and the Granger
appeared satisfied. He minced away
while at the pigs foot, then turning to the
gentleman at his side, said, "Salt water,
eh?" NO." replied the gentleman
"fresh water" After he had finished the
foot, he said "Well, I'll be doggoned i'll
haven't seen a heap of oysters, in my
time, but this is the first one ever seen
that had bones in it," 1t was an audible
smile that went round the table, when
the Granger, picking his teeth with his
fork, innocently asked, "What in thun-
der are you laughing at?"

1de Scarlet Fever.

1t is as unnecessary for a child TO die
Of scarlet fever as il is that il ssould
be blind with cataract. Let US see. AT
anv time before the body has finished
its ineffeclual struggle we are able to
help it, not by wonderful medicines but
by knowledge of anatomy, and the ap-
pIication of common sense. We con-
suit the sympathetic nerve, and do what
it commands us TO do. We must give
this child salt when it wants it; we must
give il acid when it has fever and anx-
iously Graves it-not vinegar, but lem
on-juice, because the first coagulates al
bumen, and the latter does not, on ac-
connt of the surplus of oxygen wich it
contains To initiate the soothing mu-
Gus in the intestines, which is now want
ing. and TO give some respiratory food
at the same time, we add some gum
arabic To restore and relieve the in
jured nerve, we apply moist warmth.
In practice We can fulfil all this with the
following simple manipulations: Un-
dress the child and bring it to bed at
the very first <iwn of sickness Give it
il it has already fever, nothing but sour
ish warm lemonade, with some gum
arabic IN it. Then cover its abdomen
with some dry flannel. Take a we'll
folded bed-sheet, and put in boiling hot
water, wiring it out dry by means of dry
towels AMI put this over :Ee flannel on
the child's abdomen Then cover the
whole, and wait. The hot cloths will
perhaps require repeated heat. Accord
ing to the severity of the case, and its
stage of progress, perspiration will COM
mence in the child in from ten minutes
to two hours. The child then il saved;
it soon falls to sleep. Soon after the
child awakes, il shows slight symptoms
Of returning inclination for food; help
its bowls, if necessary, with injections of
oil, soap and water, and its recovery will
be az steady as the growth of a green
house plant, if we'll treated. OF course,
if the child was already dying, nothing
could save il, or if it had already effu-
sions in the lining of the heart or brain,
it is much better that it should die. But
if the above is applied in due time, un-
der the eyes and direction of a compe-
tent physician, I will guarantee that not
one in hundred children will ever die
of scarlet fever. ] know this will star
tie some of my readers, especially those
who have lost children already. But !
shall go still farther. maintain that
a child will never get scarlet fever if
properly treated. IF child has cor
rectly mixed blood, it will not catch the
disorder if put in bed with sick child.
This is still more startling, bnt nothing
is easier of proof.-[Good Health.

A MarVelLOf Mechanism.

A marvellous piece of mechanism in
the way of clocks, is described in the
French journals. II is an eight-day in
strnment, with dead beat escapement,
maintaining power. It chimes the
quarters, plays sixteen tunes, plays three
tunes every twelve hours, or will play at
any time required. The hands go
round as follows: One, once a minute:
one, once an hour; one, once week;
one, once month; one, once year. 1t
shows the moons age; the rising and
setting of the sun; the time of high and
low water, half ebb and half food, and
by a beautiful contrivance, there is
part which represents the water, which
rises and falls, lifting some ships at high
water tide as if they were in motion,
and, as il recedes, leaves these little
automaton ships dry on the sands. The
clock shows the hour Of the day, the
day of the week, day of the month, the
month of the year, and in the day of the
month there is provision made for the
long and short months. It shows the
signs of the zodiac, it strikes or not.
chimes or not, as may be desired; and it
has the equation table, showing the diff
ference of clock and sun every day in
the year.

A Fatal Habit.

Irres0lutiOn is fatal habit. II is not
vicious itself, but it leads to vice, creep
ing upon its victims with fatal facility,
the penalty of which many a fine heart
has paid at the scafold. The idler, the
spendthrift, the epicurean and the
drunkard are among its victims. Per-
haps in the latter its effects appear in
the most hideous form. He knows that
the goblet which he is about to drain is
poison, yet he swallows it. He knows,
for the example of thousands has paint
ed it in glaring colors, that it will dead
en- all his faculties, take the strength
from his limbs, and the happiness from
his heart, oppress him with disease, and
hurry his progress TO a dishonored grave,
yet he drains it. How beautiful on the
contrary, is the power of resolution en-
abling the one who possesses il to pass
through the perils and dangers, trials
and temptations. Avoid. then, the con-
traction Of the habit of irresolution.
Strive against it to the end.

A Duel in Virginia With swords
Both Parties Wounded.

The Winchester (VA.) Times gives
the following particulars Of duel
fought in that vicinity:
A duel was fought At Carter Hall
Spring, about n half mile from Miilwood
and ten miles from this city. on Thurs
day afternoon, about 3 o'clock. The
principals we're Mr.. Robert Neville, AN
Englishman, who lives At Carter Hall,
aud Mr.. Wm. F. Randolph, Of Clarke.
Randolph was the challenging party,
and the weapons selected by Neville
were swords.
The cause Of the challenge We have
not learned. but rumor has il that Mr..
Randolph supposed that he had been
treated with discourtesy upon several
occasions by Mr. Neville. Mr.. Neville
ia said to be n practiced swordsman,
while Mr.. Randolph was entirely with
out experience in the use Of that weap-
on.
We are informed that Mr.. Nevilles
sword was n regular basket-hilt, double
edged dueling sword, aud that Mr.. Ran
dolph used an infantry officers dress
sword.
The principals e1 hIbiled perfect nerve
and coolness, and when tho word was
given the slashing was quite lively. Mr..
Neville received a thrust in the side,
cansing a slight wound. Mr.. Randolph
was severely cut on both sides Of the
head. the temporal artery on the len
side being severed, after which the sec
onds interpoaed and put stop 90 the
fight. Fortunately there was a skillful
surgeon on the 6eld. who was prompt in
stAunehing the wounds, bat for which
the result might have been serious. We
are further informed that after the fight
explanations ensued, and the principals
parted upon friendly terms.
Dueling rs no much out Of fashion
in this part of the country that thls A.
fair has caused quite a sensation. The
general sentiment in regard TO IL is one
Of regret. Since the above was IN type,
we have heard that steps were taken at
the Clarke Court on Monday 10 have the
parties indicted.

MISCELLANY.
Self Made Men.

There is great practical truth embod-
led in the following extract: Life is a
school, and it is only through its strug-
giles, its mishaps and disappointmens
that we learn human nature, ourselves
and our fellowmen. Ii is only through
repeated falls that the child learns To-
stand alone and walk. He who is the
architect of his cwn good fortune, char
acter and destiny, is always great man,
and if we will find ninety nine out OF
every hundred of such men have begun
life without any other aid than a sound
physical, moral and intellectual consti.
tuition, and have been successful in al
most all the phases of life-tasting of
poverty, struggling with disappoint-
ment, relegated to obscurity and under
going all the kicks and cuffs of "outra.
geous fortune" and finally by the de-
velopment of their inherent energies in
such a hard, rough school, rising tri-
umphantly over all obstacles at last.
Many an unwise parent labors hard
and lives sparinRly all his life for the
purpose of leaving enough to give his
children a start in the world, as il Is
called. Setting a young man afloat with
money left by his relatives is like tying
bladders under the arms of one who can
not swim; ten chances to one he will
lose his bladder. Give yonr child a
good education; and you will have given
him what will be of more value than
the wealth of the Indies. To be thrown
upon ones resources, is to be cast into
the very lap of fortune, for ones facul-
ties then undergo development and
display. an energy of which they were
previously unsusceptible.

Bengal Tigers.

In many of its habits, and in much of
its anatomy. the tiger is simply huge
cat, a monstrous and ferociuus develop
ment of the sleek tabby that purrs b.
the hearth in every outage. Being a
shy. morose animal, he is usually found
roaming about by himself; but at GER
tain seasons his mate is sure to be not
far from him. His favorite food con-
sists of the ordinary domestic cattle.
which are mostly, in the plains Of India
weak and under-sized creatures. When
he cannot find these he contents himself
W tn the different deer of India and
wild hogs; occasionally preying on mon
keys, pea fowl and even smaller animals.
These are suddenly struck down, most
ly during the night, seized by the throat
and dragged off in some secure spot in
the neighboring jungle which is known
AZ the "kill" Here he eats what his ap-
petite requires at once, and then leaving
The carcass, retires to smooth, irampled
down lair, hard by Gurt as hare lies
in its form, returning after a period
of sluggish repose TO take another meal
at the kill. He will easily consume a
buffalo in the course of a night. If hard
pressed for food the tigress will desert
her young and even eat them. As for
the young tigers, they are far more de-
structive than the old, killing three or
fonr COWS at time for the mere pleas
IRE of killing, when they first set mp in
life for themselves; wheEsaS an older IL
ger rarely kills more than one victim at
a time, and this will last him for a per-
iod of two OF three days, or even for a
week. They apparently develop into
man eaters when they are old and slug
gish, and the teeth are somewhat decay
ed. Preferring human flesh. they find,
when once the awe natural to wild ami
mails at the presence of man IL shaken
of, that he offers an easy and tempting
prey. Such is the power and ferocity
Of these man-eating tigers, that whole
villages are sometimes deserted through
their devastations. Inc on instance, in
the Central Provinces, a single tigress
caused the desertion of thirteen villages,
while two hundred and fifty square miles
of country were thrown out of cultiva-
tion before the creature was shot.

lPlttsburgh Telegrach.l

Our Philldelphia contemporaries are
making a great ado editoriaIly over the
fact that Judge Biddle, in a recent
homicide trial, charged the jury that
drunkenness was no excuse for murder.
We are tolI that the Judge, referring to
the growing opinion" that drunkenness
is an excuse for cri.4ie, and that it was
only necessary for a criminal TO bring a
few of his boon companions into Court
to swear he had be n drinking To relieve
him of the full penalty of his crime,
said there never was a greater mistake
or greater libel on the administration
of justice" While Judge Biddle is to
be commended for speaking out so plain.
ly in a community where murder il sci
dom punished, except 1t be in cases Of
such monsters as BrObsi, il is humiliat-
ing TO learn that the growing opinion"
in the Centennial city il that drunken
ness IS an excuse for crime. In nearly
every case of homicide tried in Allegh-
eny county in the last twenty years.
from the lamenled Judge McClure's ac-
cession to the bench to the presented by
the defense IN mitigation Of the degree
Of the crime, that it rather aggravated
than palliated the ofiense. Indeed, Juged
Mcclure used to hold that drunkenness
was an ingredient Of every crime, and
that if the plea Of drunkenness we're TO
be admitted for one day As an excuse,
there would be more homicides than as
saults and batteries on the calendar, and
crime would go nnpunished.
