toss for positions resulted in Walter
L. drawing the pole; George, second
Henry Todd, third; Barney H., fourth;
Prairie Lilly, fifth; Black Mariah,
sixth and outside.

attempts they were sent off to toll
erably even start. A considerable I'M
steadiness and running was INDUCED
in this heat by all. save the elegant
little mare black Mariah, who settled
down to honest trotting after leaving
wire and soon led the way, the others
now trotting then running, holding
various positions, until they entered
the home stretch on the last half,
some good trotting was INDUCED in.
The chestnut horse. Barry H., making

Our poetical reporter attended the
mum sociable at Mrs. Simon's last
Thursday evening, and having oiled
his machine and set 1t going here is
the result:
A lady took Us by the hand and spoke,
But we understood her little joke;
We went and sat mp stairs
Surrounded by the "fairs',
They tried to make US talk
But every one made balk
The ladies all spoke rs they came in
But we would just nod and grin.
The more We smiled the more they talked
Unit in Win Simons walked,
lie spoke and then We spoke
And then the spell was broke.
We fell bad, indeed we felt mean,
Felt inst like "Chrome" green.
Everybody wanted to talk but
Four knew enough to keep their mouths shut,
They all were rewarded with a chrome for their
pains
The first TO receive was Jimmy Haines
The next was u Bourbon lady, Mrs. Kctchum,
She took the second chrome for keeping num-
The third was given 10 one who done extraordinary
well, =
His name was Joseph Westervelt
The fourth given for not using the voice
Was 10 Miss Emma solcc.
They tried hard 10 get Haines 10 praie
But for once he would not accommodate.
We viii say right here five had kept stiff supper
We would not hayeiost our appetite for supper.

In the entire history Of conspiracies it is
indeed hard to imagine one more deplorable
or more dire than that which was con-
cocted against your reporter on yesterday
afternoon. Now, the Tootson family has
caused him trouble before, but Dionysius,
the youngest son, has never crossed his
path, in Joy or in grief, heretofore. As I
crossed the bridge, rejecting upon the float
ing pieces Of ice on the river as indicative ct
what men become in the melting process Of
life, I was accosted by Dionysius Tootsor,
who. gently poked his tongue out Of his
mouth, and whispered, "I know sump'n to
putin the paper. Dead body found this
morning in the backyard; No. s536 Porter
street." / looked around for; Dionysius
and he had disappeared. Proceeding to
1886, rang the bell, and asked the colored
servant to let me. look at the corpse.
She shrieked aloud and vanished. The
lady Of the house appeared at the
door and Indignantly demanded what q
sRichmond man meant by frightening her
servant to death, and causing her youngest
child to yell as though she had the cholera
I'M fant,m. was about to explain, when
Dionysius appeared on the, opposite corner
with eye-llds skinned and his right thumb
applied to his nose. He sung out Look
in the backyard, and you'll find the dead
body of an old -tom-catI That's what
sent you for. ..s: s,ris .Ty

DR.. Loomis holds that facts prove almost
conclnsively that typhoid-feyer is never OF
spontaneous origin. He traces its presence,
in every locality, to some present cause de-
Feet in drainage, foul sewers Or cess-pools,
or, as in many cases, poison from the
excavations OF q typhoid patient. When
ever, therefore, the fever occurs, he advises
a strict search for its origin. II this is not
apparent, the wells, springs, and all the
sources from which water is had for drink
ing and cooking purposes should be care
fully and thoroughly inspected. Care must
be taken that the Waste-pipes from wells
and springs do not pass directly into cess
pools or sewers, and thus become means
for the conveyance Of impure gases into the
water OF the springs and wells. Great care
must be exercised with house-drains and
sewer-pipes that they shall be free from
leakage and obstruction, and that all water
closets, sinks, and other openings into them
be provided with suitable traps. " 81 ,ss Z S.
