The Veterinary Journal reports the
case of the poisoning of Lord William
Beresford's horse by tea, which it pro-
nounces unparalleled in the annals OF
veterinary or even human toxicology. A
staff cook having left some pounds of tea
in sack, a cafiir groom filled it with corn
and serving out the contents to troop
of horses, gave Lord William Beresfords
charger the bulk of the tea, which was
eaten greedily and produced the most
startling results. The animal plunged
and kicked and ran backwards, at inter
walls galloping madly around, finally fail,
ing into donga, where it lay dashing its
head on the rocks, and was dispatched by
an assegai thrust through the heart. The
post mortem appearance indicated ex.
treme cerebral congestion.

A mere partisan organ, Democratic or
Republican, must. by the very nature of
its relation to party, make manifest
distortions of the truth to suit the end
in view. Such an organ can not be a
newspaper, for its columns are closed to
news which it would fancy detrimental
to the success of its side in politics. Yet
this is serious mistake. In politics, as
in everything else, the man who is intel
ligent enough to read will, as a rule, pre-
fer to know the truth. 1t is only in a
newspaper untrammeled by party claims
that the news of political contest is
fairly and honestly presented, and it is
because thinking people know where re-
liable information is to be had that a
really independent journal thrives.

The last days proceedings of the
Trades Union Congress commenced at
half past s o'clock on Saturday morning,
the business being of varied character,
several important questions having been
left over from the previous days. Among
the questions which were set down for
discussion were those of cooperation, the
county franchise, education, arbitration,
and several other questions more directly
connected with the history Of labor dur
ing the past year, besides which the
election of the members of the Parlia-

the selection of the place Of meeting for
next year, were down amongst the busi-

FLY.FISHlNG.
The End OF the SeasOn--What Was
Done Last Summer.

indianapolis News
The first hy-fshing season this State
has ever known is fairly over. The
leaves have begun to. fall and it is next to
impossible to cast the fly safely. For
fy-fishing it is a necessity that the wa
ter be clear and unobstructed. The sea-
son has been rather remarkable in more
ways than one. For the first time since
1870 the fishing in White River has been
really excellent, and that is all the home
fishing we have worthy the name. In
the early part of the summer and even
as early as the latter weeks in spring the
river was swarming with bass, and i'm
mediately after the spawning season, be-
fore the 1st of July, as many fish had
been killed as in any of the eight previous
seasons.
This condition of things continued un-
til September, when the extensive rains
and disagreeable winds put sudden stop
to the fishing season. 1t is hard enough
to lure bass when they can be found in
shallow pools, with no means of escape,
but to make successful search in twenty
feet of muddy water, several hundred
feet wide, is nearly as difficult as hunting
for needle in haystack. And those
fishermen who tried it last month discov.
cred this to their sorrow. The warm day;
of early October, the most beautiful fish
ing days of the year, are ruined for the
fly fisherman by the dropping of the
leaves. This season was a fortunate one
for trying the experiment of fly fishing
Fishermen who have never before
caught bass, caught large numbers witt
the artificial fly. Two gentlemen of thi
city, old and experienced anglers, killeo
over five hundred bass with the artifcia
fly in White River, this season. 1t wa
early proved to be great success, ant

into general use. The tackle dealers sole

summer than before in dozens of months

Naturally, or owing to atmospheric

Quite recently Mr.. Thomas Bayley
Potter, from England, who writes M. P
after his name on hotel registers, has
been paying Chicago visit, probably
looking after some overdue interest on
its city bonds, and he has expressed him.
self in conversation "to the effect that
outside of London alone he had never
seen city so full Of active, bustling, en-,
ergetic, hurrying life as Chicago"
Thereupon every journal in the city,
from the farthing Luminary up to the
triple-sheeted dailies (extra sheets de-
voted to advertisements Of tax sales),
quotes Potter, as other people quote the
Bible or Shakespeare, and proceed in full
chorus in trumpeting forth at great
length the great glories and many advan-
tages of Chicago. This is all right
enough, and would be entirely unnotice-
able did these people refrain from at
tempting to belittle other and more sub
stantial cities; but when it is claimed
that Chicago "has rebounded from the
dull times with marvellous force and is
now booming ahead with swiftness that
is leaving St. Louis and Cincinnati and
our other suburbs far behind" the self
conceit of the thing is superb in bulk,
but needs tapping to let the gas out.
As is very we'll known all over the
commercial world, and partially under
stood in Boston and the South Sea
Islands, Chicago's stock in trade consists
of corner lots and in corners in No.
spring wheat. The former are cornered
as an average with those shades of mort
gages-the ante-igneous, the igneous and
the post-igneous-which represent three
different phases in the history of that
fragrant city. The latter system of course
only results in knocking the saw-dust
stuffing out of a few score Of
"leading citizens" or curb-stone
brokers, about every new moon. Chicago
may be, and probably is, necessity Of
American progress-an outgrowth of oul
exuberant soil and marvellous develop
ment-a kind of depot, combining thu
qualities of a halfway house-a sutler
booth, and public station. But it de
pends for everything it has been, is, O.
ever will be, upon the money, energy anC
brains of others than its own citizens.
Of itself it has accomplished no grea
work. Its municipal management
which is about the only thing in thu
hands of its own citizens, has been in
famous from first to last. 1t has beel
the protector and builder of no grea
work. 1t may have projected, but other
have builded. But the city has its pur
poses to fill, and it's pity that her citi
zens won't fill them peaceably and quiet
ly and without maligning their neigh
bors. Chicago can never be the rival o
Cincinnati in business, grand enterprise
or good works. nor of st. Louis and Gin
cinnati in controlling the commerce of tn
