WASHINGTON NOTES.

The President, at the earnest request
of Gov. Wallace, of New Mexico, has issued a
proclamation ordering the lawless bands that
have 80 long defied the civil authorities of Lin
coin and adjoining counties in that territory to
dispense and retire to their homes. Troops
will be furnished to suppress the disorders, if
the proclamation fails of its intended effect
After consultation between the Pres
ident, the Secretary of the Treasury, and the
Attorney General, it has been decided that
troops cannot now be used to aid tho internal
revenue officials in Arkansas in breaking up the
illicit distilleries, as requested by Collector
Wheeler at Little Rock. 1t is held that the
posse -comitatus clause of the Army bill pro-
hibits the employment of troops until
it has been demonstrated that the civil
officers are unable to compel obedience
to the law. When this state of facts
has been shown, the President may lawfully
issue his proclamation calling upon the armed
distillers to disband and yield to the authority
of law within specified time, and, if this man
date is not obeyed, the President may then
direct the military TO enforce his authority

POLITICAL POINTS.

The Republicans of Missouri met in
State Convention at St Louis last week, adopted
a hard money platform and nominated the fol-
lowing ticket: Judge of the Supreme Court
Alex +. Denny; Superintendent of Public In
struction, Roderick Baldwin; Register of Lands
William T. Nordel; Railroad Commissioner, John
b. Tracy A resolution nominating Grant for
President in 1880 was received with tremendous
applause, but it was thought inexpedient to
adopt it
The result of the October elections
may be summed up about as follows: In Ohio
tho Republican State ticket was elected by ma
jority of about {, 900 or 1000, while the Demo-
Gratis elect eleven of the twenty Congressman,
although Sayler and Banning were defeated in
the First and Second (CincinnatD districts
The delegation in Congress will stand as follows:
First district, Butterworth, Republican; Second

Tragedy i'm n Church.

A tragical incident disturbed the
solemn celebration of mass at st.
Xavier's Roman Catholic church on
Sixteenth street this morning. Midway
in the service man sprung up the cen
ter aisle, and, drawing butchers knife,
drove it into the back of Mary Lyon, n
laundress employed at the Hoffman
House. She shrieked and tried to sup
port herself against the pew. Several
men attempted to seize the man, but he
brushed past them, ran down the aisle,
still brandishing the knife, and went
into the street Shortly after he was
captured by detective. AT the police
station he said his name was John Car
penter. The woman was taken to the
New York Hospital, where her injuries
were pronounced serious, but probably
not fatal. The knife entered her back
and penetrated beneath the twelfth rib
on the right side. It's passage was i'm
peded by her corset and clothing. She
never saw the man before, and could in
no way account for the occurrence
Carpenter says that he committed a
blunder in stabbing the woman, as he
had mistaken her for his wife, who had
had him placed under bonds to keep
the peace, and he chose this method of
wreaking his spite.-Ne,c York Her

No "DrOnes" There.

A gentleman living in the northern
suburbs secured a hive of bees two or
three weeks ago as a nucleus for an
apiary, and, in the course of ten days he
had read ten different works on the
honey-bee and invented half a dozen
patent hives. The other forenoon a
man called at the house on business and
was informed by the wife that her hus-
band was out inspecting the bees.
Is he taking up honey?" inquired
the man.
"Oh, no-he's looking to see if there
are any drones in the hive"
AT that instant both were startled by
series of whoops and yells, and the
husband came around the corner of the
house on the Jump, his hat striking the
air on all sides of him. He rushed
through the currant bushes and back,
rolled over on the grass and Lit out for
the barn, and the amazed wife shaded
her eyes from the sun as she looked after
him and continued, in disappointed
tone:
But 1 don't believe he found a
single drone by the way they stick to
him Free Press.

A FOur.TOn Fish.

A collision between steamship and
gigantic fish, which took place the
other day in the vicinity of the Tong
Tong islands, is reported by the Times
of India. The Messageries Maritimas
steamer Anadyr, on its voyage to Shang-
hal, was suddenly brought to stop by
a violent shock. The cause of the col
hsion was found to be an enormous ray,
or fat-fish, estimated by those on board
to weigh from 5000 to 10000 pounds
The monster was lying asleep on the
top of the water when its repose was
rudely disturbed by "dig in the ribs
by the stem of the steamer. After the
first alarm had subsidized, efforts were
made to haul the creature on board !;
but, owing to its unwieldiness, all at
tempts in this direction proved fruit
less, and the fish, doubtless even more
shaken than the passengers on the boat,
was reluctantly allowed to move off and
seek such remedies for the injuries it
had sustained as are to be procured in
the mysterious deep.

A Mustard Plaster.

How many people are there who
really know how to make mustard
plaster? Not one in hundred at the
most, perhaps, and yet plasters are used
in every family, and physicians pre-
scribe the application. The ordinary
way is to mix the mustard with water,
tempering it with little flour Such a
plaster as this makes is abominable.
Before it has half done its work it be-
gins to blister the patient, and leaves
him finally with fayed, painful spot,
after producing far less effect in a bene-
fetal way than was intended Now a
plaster should never blister at
all. If blister is wanted, there are
other plasters far better than mustard
plasters. Then use no water, but mix
the mustard with the white of an egg,
and the result will be plaster which
will draw perfectly, but will not pro-
duce blister on the skin of an infant,
no matter how long it is allowed to re-
main on the part.
