Two Young Ladies' Poisoned by Flavor.
ing Extract.

A mysterious case of poisoning oc-
Cured on Tuesday, in the western sec
ton Of the city. Misses Minnie and
Alice Wattell, residing with their moth
er and brother on McHenry Street, near
Monroe, during the holidays obtained
small bottle Of essence Of bitter al
monds from their brother for fisvoring
cakes, which he had had in his possess
sion for over six years. Ignorant Of
the fact that essences and tinctures in
crease in strength by age, the young
ladies, instead Of a few drops, used two
or three teaspoonfuls. The cake was
laid aside until midnight on Monday
last, when it was partaken of by the sis.
tiers. Alice, the younger, aged 10, was
attacked an hour after with violent
pain in her head, and was also seized
with severe vomiting. Minnie, aged
22, shortly after was attacked with
cramps in her limbs and pains in the
soles Of her feet, accompanied by the
same feeling as her sister in her head
and severe vomiting. They both felt
a ringing in their ears, and their
faces became swollen and pre-
sented a grcenish hue. Mr.. Adams,
druggist, corner of Pratt and Fulton
Streets, pronounced it at once case of
poisoning by prussic acid. DR.. j.
Bosley prescribed the proper remedies,
and devoted the greater part Of Tues
day night to their recovery. He con-
siders them now out Of danger. The
fact that they took an overdose Of the
poison produced nausea, and this, in the
opinion of both DIR. Bosley aud Mr.
Adams, the druggist, saved their lives.
They are both intelligent and prepos-
scsing young ladies', and in CONVERSE
ton with the Gazette reporter expressed
objection TO any publicity being attach
ed to their names. The hope, however,
that statement Of the facts would warn
others from the indiscriminate use of
flavoring extracts prompted them 10
consent to the publication. This ex-
tract, which is usually made by the
maceration Of peach kernels in alcohol,
Is little else than diluted prussic acid,
the deadliest poison known Baltimore
Gazette.

the morning the landlady would be
brushing about near the door, Dan
would be asleep and Mark would open
out IN loud voice, as follows: "Dan,

it's petty larceny, and in the next place

I" I've got family here, and want to

would be the landlady's remark, as she
ordered Dan to pack up. "When they
fire you out. Dan, it means me, too"
Mark would say in tones OF brotherly
affection that melted Dams inner ma

speaking of Twain, ga man who never

When Mark Twain lived in Virginia
City he roomed with Dan De Guile.
All the miseries which guile ever en-
dured, and all the bad characters he ev-
er got, date from that time. They lived
at several different lodging-houses and
were turned out OF them all, one after
another, all on account Of Dan, who
soon acquired bad reputation second
TO none in Virginia. No respecta-
bic family would harbor Dan, who
knew any thing about him, and the
very mention OF his name would cause
a landlady 70 hold up her hands in vir-
tuous horror. One morning Mark
woke mp and heard the landlady's cat
mewing about the door, which was half
open. Dan was fast asleep, and Mark,
grabbing one OF his heavy boots, threw
II with fatal precision AZ the intruder.
The cat limped of with 4 broken leg
tine boot weighed five pounds), and
the landlady secured the missile and
waited for rs owner to appear. Mark
got up, dressed, and went out with both
boots on. The landlady greeted him
with pleasant smile, and when Dan
got up and was walking about in his
stocking-feet hunting for his left boot,
he received a scathing drcssing-down
from his landlady, who, without allow
ing him TO explain, orccr~d him 10 leave
the house. Mark COZ d,led him in his
troubles, and said, "l'lI stick to We,

In addition to the large manufacture
OF firearms now going on in America n
workshops on foreign orders, the car
fridge manufacture on foreign orders
has assumed handsome proportions.
The following is from the Boston Com
nsercidl Bulletin:
Is seems that, notwithstanding the
possessions Of all the American ma
chinery for the manufacture OF both
guns and cartridges, the Russians can
not complete their armaments without
receiving constant supplies Of metal
from this country to make the car
tridges. The Lake Superior copper has
q tenaciiy unequaled by any other metal
in the world, and on this account con-
tracts for 200 tons Of the metal have
lately been made by the Russian gov
eminent. These orders for cartridge
metal were considerably increased still
later by the various governments, in
consequence OF discovery made at a
survey by Prussia; that Of cartridges
made OF European metal 40 per cent.
were found worthless. Owing also to
this superior American metal, the Turk
ISL kNFti nttttut GOItittttd WV ltatc
ago with an arms company Of New Ha-
ven for 200, 100000 cartridges for the
Martini-Henry rifle, and 50,OO0.00O for
the Snider gun. Most Of these car
tridges have been made by this time
and have reached their destination.
Machinery for making cartridges has
also been sent from this country TO
Spain. and that country now uses about
500 tons Of Lake superior metal for its
cartridge factories at Seville, Toledo,
and Havana. Notwithstanding the ma
chinery now in Russia and Spain, the
cartridges manufacture Of the United
States Is the largest in the world, and
Is especially active at the present mo :
ment, one factory having made 100000
day for 30 working days. and actually
made 1,00O,00Oa day during two day !
Of the past month. The different car
fridge factories in the country turn out
about 1000, 900 day.
