Hydrophobia in the dog, ] ain salts.
fed, is the result Of the animal having
been inoculated by some person suffer
ing from the disease of intoxication.
Startling as this theory may appear,
there is not the least question that
the fac,- will bear il out. First, hy-
droph' bia and ania potu are iden-
tical in most physical Conditions
subjects dead of either disease present
ing nearly the same autopsy. Second,
the SALIVA Of u man dying from deliri-
um trenens, and that Of dog suffer
ing from tables, bear the iame chemi-
cal analysis. Third, the entire system
of the patient suffering from alcoholic
madness is so poisoned that rapid in
ocu'ation will follow any contact with
the virus of the blood. Fourth, the
bite Of man in an alcoholic fit has
been known to result in hydrophobis.
As to the application OF these facts
/. With the canine race hydropho-
bia is never spontaneous; with man
the disease is known TO be.
2. There is not case on record Of
dog having died with hydrophobia

other animal suffering from a ike in.

MIR. BLAINE left Washington for his Maine

A Glad Meeting.

A favored few who happened to be at
the Union Depot on a certain day last
week were witnesses of charming little
scene that will be long borne in pleasant
remembrance. The usual miscellaneous
crowd was assembled waiting for the train
from the East, and among the people was
group of girls, one of whom was so rest
less, and eager, and pretty in her watchful-
ness that she could not have said more
plainly in words that she did by her &C
lions, that her heart was full of some dear
expected arrival The train at length
rumbled into the depot, and a pleasant
looking elderly gentleman and lady, evil
IDENTIFY husband and wife, returning from
a foreign tour, appeared among the pas
sengers. AS they stepped from the car
the by ISLANDERS were conscious of rush,
and tiutter of muslin, and parasol, and
hat, and handkerchief, and all that goes to
make up the toilet of the mundane angel,
accompanied by the prettiest little scream
imaginable, half cry, half laugh, and the
girl, almost a woman, threw herself into
the old lady's arms and sobbed, Mother!
mother! mother!' as if her heart were
breaking; and yet not a soul there but
knew the fullness of her joy, and sympa-
thized with it. 1t was simply pretty and
natural thing, naturally and prettily done
the one touch of nature that makes the
whole world kin.-Cleceland Herald.

Queen Victoria. -
In the collection of American work we
find tatting that Is hard to equal, and prob
ably cannot be excelled.
In the department of Brazil find that
most of the women's work Is from con-
vents, schools, and. orphan colleges. The
display, however, is very fine, and some
of the articles evince a degree of skill
which must challenge the admiration of
all visitors. In the lot there is beautiful
picture, of delicate bas relief work in cork
executed by Anna Sexsedillo Faria, of
Rio Janeiro.
A likeness of cat, done in worsted on
cardboard, is the work of little girl
away down in Dom Pedro's Empire. She
desired to manifest her interest in the Cen
tennial Exposition of America in some
practical way, and 50 she made and sent
her pussy cat It Is just such a little
thing as this that often sets visitors to
thinking as we'll as looking.
Brazil also has fine display of GRO
cheted tides and quilts, embroidered slip
pers, embroidered coats and similar arti-
cles, which combine beauty with utility in
admirable proportions.

might be safe in their countries and laws,

more impressive was the great treaty oath

Mr. Tilden was then, on motion, declared

The Convention was called to order at

The Chair announced as the next business
in order the nomination of candidate for

when Indiana was reached, the delegates
from that State failing to name candidate,
one of the Illinois delegates presented the
name of Gov. Hendricks. The first ballot
resulted as follows: Total vote, 73S. Thomas

suggestion.

Some of the Articles in the WOmen's
Department.

The Philadelphia correspondent Of the
Chicago Evening Journal mentions few
of the unique and useful articles on exhi-
bition in the Women's Department at the
Centennial, as follows:
There is horse blanket, invented by a
Philadelphia lady, which she has so con-
structed that it is suspended an inch or two
at' re the horse by means of a slender
IRE frame 1t is said to be admirably
adapted to the comfort of working horses
in hot weather.
Mrs. Somebody, of Massachusetts,, ex-
hibits an india rubber life-preserver, self
initiating, and capable of being adjusted in
less than minute.
A patent dish washer made of galvan-
lied wire attracts great deal of attention,
and seems to be quite an ingenious contri-
vance. 1t is the invention of an Ohio
lady, and from the way in which the
machine performs I judge it to be a
labor-saving success. This will be en-
couraging to all such men as may happen
to believe in the coming of an era when
the women of America shall run the polit-
ical machinery thereof, and the men be
left at home to do the baby tending and
dishwashing of the household.
F.. Another inventive lady exhibits dust
catcher into which the tidy housewife
or her servant girl can sweep all the little
rubbish and particles of dirt that accumu-
late on the carpets-including the guilds of
tobacco which the husband throws there
because he is too neat to pitch them into
the yard.
There is patent griddle-gre which
works so perfectly, and so completely sup
plies long felt want in every well-regu-
lated family that when placed in the mar
ket it ought to 60 off like hot cakes or
Fourth of July rockets.
Look little further among the collec-
ton of patented inventions and you will
see magic rolling capable Of rolling
out pie crust by the acre, with so little ex-
penditure of physical strength on the part
Of the person handling it that you
wonder whether pie-making will not soon
be reduced to fine art.
From Worcester, Mass, come some nice
specimens of darning, and other needle
work, by lady eighty years of age. Also,
mittens and stockings knit Mrs Abigail
Flagg Lowering, who is 100 years and four
months old These specimens of what a
centenarian can do in the way of knitting
are accompanied by photograph of the
old lady herself.
Several specimens Of fine needle-work
and silk embroidery from the Union
Benevolent Association, of Philadel-
phia, fill large glass case, and make a
creditable display. Some work of a
similar kind comes from Baltimore, in
Guiding an apron wrought by lady Of
seventy years.

THE Atlanta (Ga.) Times says that there
are, perhaps, q larger number of self

city in the State-men who, by indomita-

wealth; men who started life with only
strong hands and stout hearts, and have
mastered fortunes.

National Democratic Convention.

The delegates to the Democratic National
Convention assembled in the st. Louis
Chamber of Commerce, at noon on the 9th,
and were called to order by Hon. Augustus
Schell, of New York, Chairman of the Ma

upon the purposes of the Convention.

nent Organization and Resolutions were ap-

took the platform and addressed the Con-
vention in behalf of woman's suffrage, and
concluded her remarks by presenting the
resolutions Of the National Association
were, on motion, referred to the Committee
on Resolutions for respectful consideration.
Mr.. 8. 8. Hayes, of Illinois, offered q series

which were referred to the Committee on

A recess was taken until five o'clock p. m.
After reassembling at $40, the COMMITTEES
