DEATH FROM SWALLOWING GLASS. - The
Shekopee (Min.) ArgUs contains the following
singular freak of a drunken man:
Mr. Cichia, of Lensburg, LIE Sueur County,
got on spree last week, Monday, at Mont
gomery, and offered to wager that he could
The wager was taken up by party present,
whereupon the drunken man proceeded to
swallow the broken G ass and also ta.low can
die. Strange to relate, that night he felt no
i'll effects caused by the rash deed, but the
next day the glass began to cut and grind his
bowels, compelling the man to writhe and
scream in agony. This continued until Thurs
day morning, when the poor wretch was
brought to Pargue in the delusive hope that
a physician could save him from his inevitable
and fast approaching death. Of course no
physician skill could save or even prolong the
life which had been so deliberately though I'M
knowingly taken. 1t was pitiful aud heart
rending to hear the poor mortal moan and
scream in agony as the death dealing glass
slowly and constantly cut its way into the
ever, and death kindly relieved the suffering
man Thursday afternoon. A post mOrtem ex-
animation was held, and the mans stomach
and intestnes were found to be literally ground
to pieces. A wife and nine children are left
dependent by the foolishness of man craZed
by drink. This may prove timely warning
to those addicted to the excessive of
substance as deadly in its final effects as that
swallowed by the man who came TO so un-
timely an end.

TIE NORrISTON Herald saws:

The official report of the game Of billiards
between General Grant and the Mahara jah in
Jeypore, India, is now given to the public for
the frat time 1t differs materially from the
sarbled aud one-sided account furnished the
New York Herald by John Russell Young.
The General made some truly wonderful shots.
His string in the first inning was as long as
one of Secretary Evarts' sentences, and the
marker was nearly exhausted from overwork
before the game was half ended. Grant led off
by making beautiful cushion carom, his ball
turning hand spring the banister; it
then waltzed around the room, caroIAed on
the nose of the Mahara JAMS dog lying under
the stove, collided with and fractured
Sevres cospidore, then crawled UP the leg of
the table, got the balls on the rail, ''froze"
them seventeen times, then coaxed them into
corner, and leisurely counted 4,351 points,
while the General smoked twenty-five cent
cigar after which it hoped onto luxurious
divan, picked its teeth with a jeweled dagger
and fell into gentle dose, humming Pima
fore air. When the Mahara jah looked at the
ex-President with an interrogation point in
each eye, the hero of Appomattox explained
that it was simply ''scratch," and he prob
ably wouldn't have such another streak of
luck if he were to play billiards until he was
23S years old. And we don't suppose he

CHANGED to be present awaited the disclosure,

surprised to hear that | had another wife be-

four years before came to Dubuque and met
you" Then he related how he had married
his first wife, and been summoned home to
find her dead Then he went west and settled
In Dubuque, where the second romance of his
life came about. Six years ago he received
letter from the woman who had nursed his
first wife. She wrote that she was upon her
death bed, and could not rest until she had
confessed her share of the base crime. The
wife had died, but she had left an infant son.
Through a large bride protfered by the dead
womans father the husband WAS told that the
child had died with its mother The father
was wealthy, but his daughter death left him
childless, and he took this means of supplying
himself with SON. His real father was anx-
ious to see him, and the second wife was thus
told the truth for the first time, and asked to
go east and pay the first wifes son visit.
When the story was told the wife said III low
tones: 'SInce you kept it from me so long, |
would rather you had never revealed it. The
excitement caused py the recital proved fatal.
