Gensai ne BargatMs~

We call the attention Of our readers
to the important announcement in an
other column, by Crosby Il Hill, 22O
and 222 Market street. This firm al
ways sell goods at the very lowest
prices. They not only buy for cash and
thus avail themselves Of the largest
discounts, but are always On the look
out for genuine bargains, which they
are constantly placing on their coun-
ters, which the crowds of customers
who throug their store, evidently ap-
preoiate. One cardinsl principle with
this firm is to be truthful in all Of their
and advertise only what
they can back up to the letter. Believ-
ing that actions, not words, are best
appreciated by discerning public,
they refrain from the false rhetoric
resorted 10 by unscrupu-
lous dealers. AT the present time they
are offering unusual inducements
which buyers would do we'll to avail
of without delay.

Steers on the Rampage.

Fifteen friskv young Texas steers
were driven into New York Sunday
morning. When on Sixty. fifth street
they became unmanageabls, and with
fine eye to strategicaI effects separated
into severa! parties. The whole po-
lice force Of the precinct thereu pom was
called out ana endeavored to capture
them, panic taking possession Of pc
destrians. One steer, little wilder
than the others, was pursued BY
several officers and host Of boys and
men. This infuriated the animal 80
that in boxing the compass he did
much injury. Four men were badly
wounded and several horses belonging
to the Knicker booker Ice Co., were kill
Cd. The steer was finally felled to the
earth by one of the ice men. Astonish-
ing to say the police officers fired as
many as forty pistol shots at the ami
NAL without effect. Another steer was
chased through the avenue for several
hours, and finally shot by an officer of
the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.

THE Ssspy Of . Needle.

From the Little Rock (Ark.) Gazette.
About thirty years ago Mrs. Butner,
mother-iu-lsw Of T. l.. Montgomery,
proprietor Of the Rose City Baking Pow.
der factory Of this city, was attack
ed with great suffering locat-
ed in the left hip, and she was
seized with what she termed rheuma
tism, at times very severe. Finally it be-
came necessary to perform surgical
operation, which was done, part OF her
hip joint being taken oil. Physicians
held the opinion that the joint was az
fectsd, and that the operation would
afford relief, but, contrary to their ex-
pectations. the lady did not improve
very much. For years she had to use
crutches, and at one time she was con-
fined to her bed for over year. This
was while the family lived in Kentucky.
After removing into this State, Mrs.
Butner did not improve very much,
and it was only by the use Of crutches
that she could walk any distance. Last
Saturday morning small needle, Of
the old fashion "cambric" style, made
lis appearance, the point protruding
from the diseased section. Small pieces
of bone having from time to time work
cd out, the needle was thought to be
another fragment, and 1t was only after
being withdrawn that the truth was
discovered. Mrs. Butner says she re-
members once, when girl, riding
horseback, she was stuck by needle
which happened to he in her dress.
The needle was broken off just below
the eye. The description answers to
the one spoken of, and there can be
but little doubt but that it is the same.
Since the needle made its appearance
the lady is much improved and can
now walk without the aid Of crutches.
