Boss Tweed Still Wealthy Man.

A d..
I regard Mr.. Tweed as one of the rich
est men in New York. Let him be re-
leased and the people will soon find out
how they have been deceived in regard
to this "poor, broken down old man."
He is worth anywhere from six to twelve
millions this minute that is, he can con-
troll that amount under various names.
His real estate is chiefly in the names of
his sons, Richard and William M.
Tweed, Jr., or has been by them passed
to other parties who "hold it for them.
His personal property in bonds and
stocks in this country will foot up over
81 100000. His investments in foreign
stocks will exceed that amount, prob
ably. That scheme for a railway in
Spain is not a mere Pigment of fancy, as
has been recently stated in certain news
papers; it is q fact now in active pro-
gress of inception. 1t will be an accom-
plished reality within six months of Mr..
Tweed's release if ever that release takes
place. Even if Mr.. Tweed was willing
to surrender all his property" said the
lawyer, the persons who now control it
temporarily for him would not suffer
him to do so. You may rest assured that
neither during his life nor after his death
will ever 1.-THE of the money he has
taken from the public be returned to it. u
A large portion of Mr.. Tweed's gains
has found its way into the possession OF
an accomplished lady closely identified
with Mr.. Tweed's career. This lady is
still one of his staunchest friends and
most skillful and trusted advisers, and
Mr.. Tweed never takes any important
step without consulting the lady, who is
really one of his shrewdest guides. This
lady is said to be bitterly opposed tc
any such thing as a genuine estate
ment" emanating from Mr.. Tweed.

DOMESTIC HINTS.

Fans Cake.-Two cupfuls -four, one
and one-half cupful sugar, one-half cup
full cream, salt, four eggs, cream tartar,
soda.
For Rheumatism.- one or two
strong doses of rhubarb. A single dose
of from one to two fluid ounces of the
best tincture has been found to be quite
efficacious.
Cold in the Head.-This can be cured
at once, if taken care of at the very be-
ginning. Dissolve a tablespoonful of
borax in pint of hot water; let it stand
until it becomes tepid snuff some up the
nostrils two or three times during the
day, or use the dry powdered borax like
snuff, taking a pinch as often as required.
At night have handkerchief saturated
with spirits of camphor, place it near
the nostrils, SO as to inhale the fumes
while sleeping.
Baked Sweetbreads. - Choose large,
white sweetbreads; put them into warm
water to draw out the blood and improve
their color; let them remain for rather
more than one hour; then put them into
boiling water and allow them to simmer
about ten minutes, which renders them
firm; take them up, drain them, brush
them over with egg, and sprinkle with
breadcrumbs; dip in the egg again, ther
in breadcrumbs; drop on them little
oiled butter, and put the sweetbreads
into it moderately, and let them bake
nearly three-fourths of an hour; make
three pieces of toast, place the sweet
breads on them, and pour over anC
around them q good brown gravy.

Not Down i'm the Bills,


At the theater last evening, in order to
give general eclat to the scene in which
Buffalo Bill scalps Yellow Hand, it
was determined to enact it on horseback.
Accordingly in the afternoon two very
gentle horses were brought on to the
stage from MONEYS livery stable and
trained to familiarize themselves with
the explosion of firearms. In an hour
they became so accustomed to it that
pistol shots could be fired in rapid sue
cession under their very noses without
giving them the slightest concern.
When the curtain rose for the grand
equestrian scene, Buffalo Bill, mounted
on snow-white charger, galloped across
the stage. A moment later Captain
Jack Gas Yellow Handy trotted out
from the wing, and then the trouble
was begun. Bill raised his Henry rifle
and began firing, while Jack pulled his
revolver, firing one shot in doing So
He fell heavily to the stage, with his
foot clinging for a moment to the STIR
rup. The horse relieved of its rider,
rushed about wildly, confused by the
sudden fall and continued firing, and at
one time ran toward the footlights and
seemed about to jump into the auditor
ium. Captain Jack rose to his feet and
limped off the stage, but a moment af-
ter made his appearance again in a
hand-to-hand encounter with Buffalo
Bill. He stood upon one leg with blood
streaming down the other, and seemed
to be in great pain, all of which was
considered by most of the audience to
be only part of the performance. AT
the sight of the blood, Miss Granville,
who was in the box on the right,
tainted. The curtain fell abruptly, and
all the actors rushed on the stage to see
what was the matter. They found Jack
hardly able to rise and bleeding from
the groin. He was taken to the dress
ing-room, and physicians were immedi
ately summoned. When his Logging:
were removed, an ugly wound was founc
in the left groin, from which the BLOOD
was flowing so copiously that the physi
clans were apprehensive that an artery
was severed. The wound was caused b!
the premature explosion of Jacks re
volver, the weapon having been dis
charged as he was pulling it from tn
sheath.

Tobacco stalks, from the amount of
potash they contain, form one of the best
manures for potatoes. They can be laid
long in your burrows, or can be cut up if
you like to take the trouble. They are
also excellent to spread over grass land
in the fall, but they will have to be
raked off in the spring, leaving, however,
visible proof of their usefulness. They
are often composted with the manure
heap. Tobacco stalks must be kept un-
der cover or the valuable parts will be
leached out.
1t is argued that it is unnecessary to
kill broken-legged horses, and case in
point is stated: Twelve weeks ago the
nigh hind leg of Mr.. Williams's valuable
and favorite mare was broken in Utica
by kick from another horse. The frac-
ture was half way between the fetlock
and the gambrel joints, and was COM
plete. A veterinary surgeon undertook
to set his leg. A canvas sling was ar
ranged, and the mare suspended in it in
such way that she could occasionally
rest her uninjured limbs. The fractured
| leg was then set, bound with hickory and
leather splits, with heavy leather boot
outside all. The mare did well and
never missed meal. After three weeks
a plaster of Paris bandage was substi-
tuted, and in seven weeks Nellie was
walking around the stable There was
no sign of the fracture, and it is thought
that she will keep her 2 40 gait.
