Who is Mrs. WinslOw3

As this question is frequently asked, we
will simply say that she is lady who for up
wards of thirty years has untiringly devoted
her time and talents as female physician
and nurse, principally among children. She
has especially studied the constitution and
wants of this numerous class, and, as re-
suit of this effort and practical knowledge,
obtained in a lifetime spent as nurse and ply
stefan, she has compounded Soothing Syrup
for children teething. 1t operates like magic
giving rest and health, and is moreover,
sure to regulate the bowels. In consequence
of this article, Mrs. Winslow is becoming
word-renowned as a benefactor of her race !;
children certainly do RISE UP and bless her !;
especially is this the case in this city. Vast
quantities of the Soothing Syrup are DAILY
sold and used here. We think Mrs. Wins
low has immortalized her name by this in
valuable article, and we sincerely believe
thousands of children have been saved from
an early grave by its timely use, and that
millions yet unborn will share its benefits,
and unite in calling her blessed. No MOTH
Err has discharged her duty to her suffering
little one, in our opinion, until she has given
it the benefit of Mis-. WinslOw's Soothing
Syrup. Try it. mothers-TRY 1T NOw.-La-

The Maine Central train came near meet
ing with serious accident Monday evening
while on its way to Bangor. Just as the
train was leaving Pittsfeld it struck the END
of a low fiat car, standing on a side track
which carried away the casing on the cylinder
of the engine, and swept off every step on
that side of the train. The engineer did not
see the car and consequently did not kno"
what had happened, until the conductor
signalled him to stop. 1t was extremely i0r'
tunate that the car happened to be low one
or it would have thrown the car from tne
track and down an embankment some twenty
feet, into the stream. The accident caused
short delay. Among the cars injured wele

Yesterday. Ferdie, the four years old son
of f. G.. Storer, met with sad accident.
The little fellow was playing on Grove street
in front of his fathers residence, when
load of hay came along. He ran up along
side, and began to pull out wisps. The over
hanging hay concealed the hind wheels Of
the rack. One of the wheels struck the boy,
knocking him down, passing over his leg and
breaking it in two places, besides shiverlng
the bone. DIR. Croker was sent for at once
and treated the fracture. Ferdie bore the
pain like hero, never once finching or max
ing an cutlery. He is now doing nicely.

in detecting and identifying handwriting have testified in the West Point trial that they have been able to fix upon specimens of hand writing submitted to them as identical with the handwriting of the threatening note to Whitaker there has been general curiosity to discover the person whose handwriting had bsen thus identified. It will be remembered that thus far four experts have been employed, and each has examined from two hundred and fifty to three hundred specimens of handwrit- ing submitted to him by the Recorder of the court, who has been careful to conceal the names of the writers and has given the specimens of handwriting to the experts merely with num- bers attached. The experts summoned were Mir. J. E. Paine, Superintendent Gayler of the New York Postoffice, MT. John B. Hagen and Mir. D. T. Ames. The report of Mr. Ames will be presented during this week. Superintendent Gayler identified scraps of handwriting marked humber 8" and s'num- ber TT as.written by the writer of the anon ymous note. Mir. Hagen handed back to the Recorder four specimens marked 7, 8, g and 10, which he identified ss written also by the writer of the anonymous note, while MT. discovered no evidence sufficient to warrant Identification.
 Credible reports have reached the Evening Post from several independent sources that the handwriting on the scraps 'No. S."

Seventeen Days WIEhout Fo0d-LoAt 0u
 the Ice isl Georgian Bay-Lying Down
 to Die. and Then Saved.
 TORONTO, Ont., May 3.-James Cornell was admitted to the general hospital yesterday, having both his feet badly frozen. About six weeks ago he started from Nusqussh Island, in Georgian Bay, to walk to Penetarguishene. A path wss marked out by limbs of trees and bushes placed at intervals along the ice. Cor Tell is short sighted, and the path marks be- ing placed at considerable distances apart, he had not been long out of sight of land when he found that he was eff the path, and was lost on the ice. He wandered around all tha day endeavoring to find either the path or the land. When night fell he kept moving on to keep his blood in circulation, but both his feet were frozen. When morning broke he WAS exhausted, but sum- moned all his remaining strength, and in short time reached the land He found that it was country heavily wooded, place which seemed never before to have been visited by human beings For several days he wandered hither and thither, crying aloud for aid, and being answered only by the echoes of the forest. Food he had none, but water he procured in the shape of ice and snow. He ravenously chewed bark and twigs and de- caying leaves to qusll the hunger which gnaw ed st his vitals. At length he laid down to die. He knows not how the days went until he heard the report of frsarm close at hand. He feebly called for help, the cry be- ing heard by two Indians who were hunting in the vicinity. These people carried him to a cap near at hand. Cornell found that he was on Christian Island, the largest of group of which Musquash Island is member. The Indians treated him with such skill and atten- tion that he was soon able to be taken back to Musquash Island, and from there he took a barge for Penetanguishere. From the day he left Musquash till the day he was found was seventeen days, during which time no food passed his lips.

Important Railroad Le2Sc-A Report
 cd Addition to tho Jay Gould Lines.
 BALTIMoRF, May 3.-A dispatch from Wash ington to the Sun says: Representative Newbsrry has received a private dispatch from an interested friend announcing that the Wabash railroad has leased the Great West ern of Canada, thus making another trunk line from San Francisco to New York. Jas.J. Joy went to Europe for this purposs-to secure lease from the foreign stockholders of the Great Westera--and this dispatch indicates that he has accomplished his purpose. MT. New berry says his dispatch is not from MT. Joy but from well-informed gentleman whom he does not rame. This lease will nscessitate the construction of the proposed Butler ex tension connecting the Wabash road with the Great Western St Detroit, and cutting of Toledo. MT. Nswberry has further in formation that the Great Western will build line from Welland to Lewiston, Canada, and there connect with the Ontario and Western road, which was formerly known as the New York Midland, and runs from Lewiston to Os-- wego and New York city. This will give Jay Gould an unbroken trunk line from San Fran cisco to New York. It Is understood here that James Keene and other New York speeu- lators were unloading Lake Shore and North western stock in New York on Saturday as fast as they could do without breaking the ket, which seems to indicate that Mir. New berry's news is true.'
