A Brief Quarrel.

Gen. Barlow and Elihu Root, two
New York lawyers, have been punished
for an ignoble little quarrel, by having
it spread before the public, perhaps moi
with the best of motives. Being on op,
posite sides of a case, they exchanged
briefs. Gen. Barlow afterward sent to
Mr.. Root to recover his own, when Root
demurred to its surrender, alleging that,
according to custom, he had indicated
his counter case along the margin. Bar
low, in reply, threatened suit of replev
in. Root, in turn, cautioned him not to
"make add fool of himself" Barlow
replied with challenge to a duel, or
proposed to shoot at sight on the street,
or have it out in his private Office.
Roots friends appealed to the District
Attorney, he to Judge Davis, Davis to
Barlow, who VOWS it was all 81 joke.
Huge disgust Of all parties, and the gen
eral conviction of the liability of man to
make an ass of himself.

A Remarkable Case of Aneurism.

A large protuberance on the breast
Jacob Seilheimer. of 142 First aveaue
burst on Friday afternoon, and bloc
poured out. He died within five mir
utes. Deputy Coroner Goldschmeidi
who made the post norton, said las
evening: "Seilheimer died of aneur
ism of the heart. Nowhere in the med
cal authorities, according to my know
edge, is there record of an aneuris
nearly so remarkable. Two years ago
small, pulsating tumor appeared lit
to the right Of his breast bone. It gre
larger, until Recently it broke throug
the breast bone and attained the size
an infants head. Then it burst, and b
.life-blcod poured out. There was
hole four inches in diameter in th
breast bone. I learned that Seilheime
was temperate and industrious, workin
as cigarmaker until the pain resultin
from his disease became almost intole1
able. He did not consult physical
until within the past week. The phys
clan, diagnosing the aneurism as a ma
ignant cancer, advised Seilheimer T.

which, of course, would have caused
almost instant death. An aneurism O

The Importance OF Improving the
Bridges.

Nothing that railroad companies can
do will restore confidence in these iron
bridges. The only question that the
public will ask is, what minute will the
next one go? There is no doubt but that
these companies can make the passage of
ravines and water-courses absolutely Sc
cure beyond any possibility Of danger.
Culverts, with embankments properly
made and properly settled, are safe. Still
better, viaducts of solid masonry will
last to the end of time. No amount of
weight and no strain or shock of any de-
scription can affect them. Nothing but
an earthquake can disturb them. They
are perfectly and permanently safe. Is
it not time that the law makers give some
attention to the bridge business, and not
leave it entirely in the hands of railroad

Real cannibals have been discovered
by missionaries on the islands of New

negro type, who live more like beasts
than human beings. The Rev. George
Brown, Wesleyan missionary, reports
that ne saw women roasting the leg and
thigh OF a man who had been killed in
fight. In another hut smoked dried hui
man flesh was hanging. In another he
couMed thirty five jaw-bones of men and
women. Cannibalism seemed to be
common throughout the islands, not
as a religious rite, but as an ordinary
means of subsistence. The natives as
sured the missionary that the accounts
heretofore published of race of tailed
human beings were true, and were GER
tain that these strange creatures were
not monkeys.

Now the time is fast approaching when we
