LOckjaw Cured by Amputati0n,

Louisville Courier-Journal.
Nothing more remarkable in this
age of marvels in science in all bran
ches has been reported than a case of
cure of lockjaw which Courier Jour-
nal reporter learned from DR.. james
McEvoy's own experience yesterday
and is the first on record, as it is the
most wonderful he ever heard Of. A
yonng man, aged twenty five, name d
Geo. Dunn, residing on the "Point,''
above the city, had :he fingers Of his
left hand severely mashed three or
four days ago. Wednesday morning
he was seized with !ockjaw aud nour-
ishment was administered by prying
the teeth apart and inserting susten-
ance upon the blade of a knife. DR..
McEvoy was called in yesterday, and
as last resort, concluded to ampu-
tate the badly mashed fingers. The
first and third fingers of the hand
were accordingly taken of, and tn
the astonishment of DR.. McEvoy and
the attendants, in an hour after the
operation the contracted muscles re-
laxed and Dunn was able to talk. He
ate also with relish, and last evening
was doing we'll. The case is one that
commands the interest and attention
Of all physicians.

The lack of adver tising is one of
the chief causes of business failures.
There are business men who do not
understand the value of advertising.
They do not see the direct connection
between advertising and the entrance
Of a customer, or the demand for any
particular article. They, also, with a
self. importance which is amusing,
fancy their business is known to the
whole community, changing as that
community is to an extent which they
have no conception of. The principle
upon which business men should act
is. advertise, and advertise the truth.
If you have good thing let the peo-
pie know it. Furthermore. never let
au advertisement get stale.-Aadisoa
Journal.

WHAT THE OLD BULLFROG SAID.
Hartford Conn., Bazar-Budget.
Over in the pasture, down in the pool,
Sitting in the soft mud, quietly and cool;
First it is our duty to greet the coming
Now, then, all together, Sing, frogs, sing.
The long, csol winters past, we slept thro
it;
The snow blew, the winds roared, but We
never knew it;
All the winters RACES couldn't break oul
Sleep,
Now then, all together. Peep, frogs, peep.
Buried in the frozen mud 'twasn't very gay
We didn't hear lecture, We didn't see a
play;
These farmers had their fires and lights, and
s1eighs to 70 about,
Nop who's got the best Of It'll Shout, frogs
shout.
They're plowing on the hillside, they're
digging by the track,
They're setting garlic out in rows, with
many an aching back,
We laugh within our tight green sleeves te
see them toll all day,
Who spends the spring the pleasantest
Say, frogs, say.
We hear the south wind blowing, soft and
steady breeze,
Blowing open III! the buds upon the walnut
trees.
The blackbird whistling DER us shows the
scarlet on his wing,
We can make some music too. Sing, frogs
sing.
Pond-lily leaves about our heads spread out
like green umbrellas
No daintier ones are carried by tho fairest
of carth's dwellers;
The brakes and rushes round the bank make
shadows deep and still,
Inviting meditation, Trill, frogs, trill.
The sun is getting hotter, and the reeds
bend DER the brink,
And here a roasting farmer is coming dowr
to drink
But give one well-consiLered hop and in the
mud you're sunk,
Now then, all together, Ker-chunk, frogs
chunk.

VOLUME TEN-A Happy Birthday.
All hail to thee, oh CHIEF of volume ten!
How mightier than the sword thy trenchant
penl
And through the cunning Of thy masters
hand,
Thou standeth first among the country band.
I crave the eloqnence of Cicero
To clothe my thoughts in language fit to
show
The love We feel for you, whose CHEEKY face
| Holds in our hearts the warmest, dearest
smile
Meath woeful frowns, you struggled on the
while
Bravely and fearless, working towards the
light,
Safe in your impervious shield Of right,
Until she coyly smiled again and now,
For nine long years, with Bentley at the
PROV,
1OuV0 utou uOWE malice, ul6COuCcnC 0nu
blame,
Earned for yourself at last a spotless name,
A happy birthday. then, and many more!
We wish for you a triple x before
Your noble editor, content with his renown,
Shall doff his laurels and for roses change his
| crown.
Well love thee still, oh CHIEF, when mem
| 0ry at last
With ghostly hand turns DER the ashes Of
the past.

A TURNED DOWN PAGE,

A TURNED DOWN PAGE.
There's u turned down page, some writer
says,
In every human life
A hidden story Of happier days,
Of peace amid the strife.
A folded leaf that the world knows not
A love dream rudely crushed;
The sight Of a foe that is not forgot,
Altho' the voice be hushed.
The far distant sounds Of harp's soft strings,
An echo in the air
The hidden page may be full of such things,
That once were fair.
There is q hidden page in each life, and mine
A story might unfold;
But the end was sad Of the dream divine
1t better rests untold;

A PURE UNTRAMMnLLED BALLOT"

1t is emlnenly fitting that Wade HamDton's
State should furnish the most shining exam
pie of what that chivalrc statesman has de-
nominated an untrammelled ballot" The
so-called election tor Congressman in the lid
South Carolina District illustrates the sy stem
perfectly Mr. Z. w. NJ. Mackey was the Re-
publican candidate, and Mr.. NJ. p. OCOnnor
WAS the Democratic candidate. It beng a
strong Republican district, Mr.. Mackey
was sure of an election ii the
ballot was at all untTammellcd. IL was not al
lowed to be- The baot-bOxes were raised
five feet from the ground. and the ballots
were inserted through an opening in the top
three ard One-half inches long and one inch
wide The Supervisors, who were all Demo-
Gratis, could not see what was put III the box
unless they stood on IA s,oOl aGd watched the
opcning. Bnt they could not do that and hunt
I'D the voters name on the poll-list. The re-
suit was that they examined the list and let the
boxes take care of themselves. The Republicans
voted open tickets and kept tally of them ut
each poll. Thy had nothing 70 conceal.
The Democrats pursued a diff rent con se.
They had some large pastebOad tickets, three
inches wide by four and one half inches long.
The large openings In the boxes permitted
the insertion of these folded with almost any
number of tissue ballots inside. We have se-
cured two samples Of these latter ballots.
They are printed on very thin paper, are an
inch and a half wide and about nine inches
long. A dozen or more could be folded in
the pastebOlrd ticket and dropped II the
box. One Of these ti@su, tickets Is OF blu
ish color with pink squares on the back. The
other IS similar in color without the squares.
Wnen the polls were closed a count WIS
made, and it was discovered that in every voting
precinct more votes had been deposited than
there were names on the poil-ilst. The cx-
cess was thrown cut and as the shape and
color of The ballots easily sho erd winch party
cast them, the votes of Republicans were in
all cascs thrown with much greater iibecality
than thcs. of Democrats. By this pro-
cess Mr.. VI ckey's vote in the City Of
Charleston VS. rcdgced from $3.50 10 1889,
aud Mr.. O'Connor's majority was .sed from
4O5 20 5107. The excess Of ballots Wa

1,IG0 Democratic billols. In the cth.r parts
OF thc district the SINE practice Nas resOrted TO-
But there was a characterization somewhere
After the throwing ont and rscoulting
had beeu completed, and the experts in
tins fine Damouatc arr had compared totals,
it was found that Mr.. Mackey sill nal ma

elected after all. They got around that little
difficulty by throwing out entirely the Repub-
lican vote Of a sufficient number Of precincts
to elect Mr.. O'Connor 10y over 5000 majority.
If that is not an "untrammelIed ballot"
