and demanded an apology from MIR Rose.
The latter refused to apologize. stating that
he had done nothing more nor less than his
professional duty required of him in the
premises. Mr.. Tutterloh then advanced
upon Mr.. Rose with a chair, when the latter
said, IF YOU come at me with that chair |

by his side and held his hand while the GER

true story of Mr.. Wheatley's life, as she had

PUTTING OUT THE GAS The first regular
use of the electric light in New York has
been made in Gilmore's Garden. Gas has
been dispensed with altogether, and The
new light proves vastly more satisfactory
in every way. And it seems rather curious,
though it probably is natural enough, that
the adoption Of the electric light even by
one large establishment has been promptly
followed by an offer from the oldest gas
monopoly in New York to supply gas to
consumers at a reduction of fifty cents on
every 900 feet. This offer is just made by
the Manhattan company. Instead Of charg
ing $3.50 per LOCO feet, it hereafter charges
only 50. This concession has been q long
time d coming-hut better late than never.
Gas stock are still weak in the market, and
they do not seem likely to recover.

Miraculous Cure Of a Parolytic.

All the Jesuit papers in France
are bristIing Just now with wonder
full telegraphic accounts from
Lourdes, relating miracles after mi
racles, apparently due to the admira-
BILE virtue Of the holy waters in the
grotto. Cripples have beer walking,
invalids casting off their crutches,
blind men reading the Figaro. The
following miracle, however, which
took place on the road to the shrine,
has not received from the same pa
pers the attention to which it was
entitled. A paralytic, in an easy
chair, had been placed on the pill
grim train. At one Of the railway
stations there was change of car
riages, and it happened that the easy
chair, with the paralytic 10 it, had
Just been put down on the line, when
a train running from the opposite d.
rection was suddenly seen bearing
right down upon it. There was a
general stampede, and cry of ter
ror; everybody thought the paralytic
must be killed, when, to the intense
establishment of all witnesses, he was
seen to rise from his arm. chair and
walkoff briskly, just in time to es-
cape the train. The mere thought
of the holy waters seems to have been
sufficient to cure this pilgrim.-Lon-

Miss Aver is a very lovely young

There is some dissatisfaction, in
this city, at the persistent neglect of
the School Superintendent to appoint
Trustee for this district, to fill the
vacancy caused by the resignation of
Mr.. McGinnis. The Superintendent
excuses his failure to do his duty on
the score that he cannot get any one
to accept the Office.

L'ENFANT TERRIBLE.
He Takes to Playing With Powder.
With Varying Success.

Last Wednesday morning the son
OF Mrs. Champiain, a lodging house
keeper of Sutro, found bottle full
OF black powder, and thought he
would have some fun with 1t. Lay.
ing train about two feet long he
applied a match to it, and started TO
run off. The powder was too quick
for him, however. The bottle ex.
ploded almost instantly, fragments
striking the boy on the left side of
the face and neck, infiicting three
ugly gashes and exposing the jugu-
lar vein. He will probably recover,
but will be disfigured for lite.
A few days ago, Charley Fox, of
Dayton, while visiting the slaughter
house OF Winzell & Campbell, es-
pied an old rifle used to kill the an
imals intended for slaughter. Being
unperceived he filled the rifle about
two-thirds full Of powder, and
jsmmed two balls on top of the
powder. He then pointed the gun
in the direction ofa bull being fat.
tened for Thanksgiving Day, and
made three or four unsuccessful at.
tempts to discharge 1t. He had neg.
lected to put on cap, and the gun
would not go off. The noise made
by the clicking Of the hammer called
attention to him, and the gun was
taken away.
