BROOKLYN, Dec. 31.-Madame Anderson
is enjoying good health and determined to
complete her task. So far she has been only
one minute and quarter behind her sum-
mons to the track at any one time. The
Madame is now on the last half of her un-
dertaking. Yesterday afternoon she ap-
peared in a neatly-itting purple velvet
dress, trimmed with white fur, reaching to
her knees A black velvet cap rested jaunt-
lily on her dark brown hair, and her white
trunks displayed the well-developed mus
cles of her lower limbs. She walked in her
old 7,000-mile shoes, not having as yet been
able to procure new pair to suit her.
Harry Hill walked quarter mile with
her. On reaching the finish Harry had to
trot in order not to fall behind.

A CASE of poisoning has recently occurred
in Paris, France, that every year has its
counterpart in every country where the
peach is found. A child gathered a lot of
peach stones, cracked them, ate the kernels,
and in a few hours died, poisoned by the
prusaic or hydrocyanic acid contained in the
kernels. Children are especially liable to
such accidents, for rarely are they cautioned
against the danger of eating the kernels of
peach stones, or forbidden to break the
stones, leaving the meat exposed for others
perchancs to gather up, and without hint
OF their nature, swallow. An ounce OF the
kernels of peaches contains one grain of pure
hvdrocyanic acid, and one grain will kill
any ordinary adult, two-thirds of grain
having been known to have killed children.
At this season, when peaches are so numer-
Gus, word of caution should BE- spoken to
older children, and those too young to under
stand should not be allowed the chance to
endanger their lives by eating the poisoned
kernels.

Voorhees, success, the Voorhees, campaign
may be a very bad failure.-ChicagoT Tribune.
The radical press throughout the country
are endeevoring to make it appear that
Messrs. Hendricks, Mcdonald and Voorhees,,
as the Tribune expresses it, "are at logger
heads on the currency question" Nothing
could be more absolutely false. The
statement is strictly in keeping with
radical nendacity. The radical organs,
candidates and stump speakers have started
out IN the campaign to utilize lleing. We
doubt if there is single instance on record
where they have told the truth in combat
position of the democratic party upon the
leading issues of the campaign. The fact is,
the three distinguished democrats named by
the Tribune indorse the financial doc
trine set forth In the democratic plat
form adopted by the democracy of Indiana
on the Goth of February last. This
fact ought to be sufficient to make the radical
press stop their nonsensical lying about
democratic disagreements upon financial
issues. The democratic party favors gold,
silver and paper money, and demands in
the aggregate, "such amounts as the sound
business interests of the country from time
ito time require" The platform declares:
That national bank notes shall be retired,
and in lieu thereof there shall be issued by the
government an equal amount of treasury
notes with full legal tender quality.
That we are In favor of making the United
States notes, commonly called greenbacks a
foil legal tender in payment of all debts pubs
lie aud private except such Obligations only
as are by the terms of the Original contracts
under which they were issued, expressly pay
able in coin.
That the right to issue paper money as well
as coin is the exclusive prerogative of the gov
eminent, and such money should be issued in
such amounts as the sound bushes inter-
ests of the country may from time to time re-
quire.
The Chicago Tribune knows full well that
the democratic party of Indiana stands
squarely on these declarations. Democrats
are in favor of "hard" money and of soft
money, and they want enough of it to trans
act the legitimate business of the country.
