in progress, may be asked Nothing. At
last, when the Captain of the post
concluded that these riotous demon
strations were increasing in mag
nitude. and when he saw that
the mob was commencing to plumber, he
ordered a com pany of the troops to clear
the streets. This force, under the Sub
Project, made a charge with fixed
bayonets on the mob, which was now con.
eregated about the plaza on the Gale da
Constitution. This charge was effectual
in scattering the mob Of women, who, as
they fed, dropped their prey, which con-
sisted of dozen terror-stricken ChillaD
women completely denuded. These were
taken by the authorities and placed in the
Quartet, with strong guard over them to
protect them from further violence. ln all,
about 100 CHILEAN women were IN the
hands of the mob. and, had it not been tor
the soldiery, even though they were tardy
in rendering assistance, many would have
met with a cruel and barbarous death.
The male portion of the populace did not
take anv active part in the disorders but
thew were abettors of the mob, passively
looking on and not attempting to quell
these acts. A number of the Chilian
women took refuge on foreign shipping,
while others cluHg TO their husbands on the
thresholds of their own doors, being the
wives of the foreigners. and entitled to the
same protection as their husbands from
their respective governments.
Very little has been said about this dis
graceful affair by the Peruvian journals,
and, when it has been noticed, it has been
smoothed over as popular warning to the
authorities to remove the Chilianos, on the
ground of morality and public safety. 1t
seems as if the Peruvians have yet 70 learn
that mans wife holds the same citizen
ship as he himself does, and, therefore,
cannot be classed as citizens of q country
with which Peru is at war.

Cottage Eospirals

One of the greatest boons to the rural
population of England, of late years, has
been the establishment of cottage hospi-
tails. The first institution of the kind was
at Savernake, in Willis In 1867 poor
farm laborer was injured by machinery,
and had to be carried miles TO doctor
and then forwarded ten miles further to a
hospital. The case so impressed theVicar
of Savernake that the idea occurred TO
hiul to try and establish cottage hospital.
He found warm and generous coadjutors in
Lord and Lady Ailesbury. the chief land
owners of the parish. Lord Ailesbury
gave a large sum and site 10 lovely
situation, and in due time the thing was
done. During the past year 2l1 cases
have been treated with every comfort,
convenience. and attention at a cost per
bed of 1915 a week, and the mortality
among them was only a decimal fraction
more than per cent. against 9 per cent
at Guys. 10 per cent at St. Bartholo
news. and Is per cent at St. Thomas
the great London hospitals In case OF
amputation. the advantage is enormously
in favor Of the cottage hospitals, 10 couse-
quence of the purity of the air.

The Chicago Tribune says the New
York.banks are in q decidedly healthy
condition, a person may reasonable as
sumo, if the generous presents when most
of them made to their employees on New
Years Day are to be taken las an indica-
ton. One bank gave $1,000 apiece to
each of its clerks; another gave its Cashier
a present of O check for $1,000; another
gave each employe q sum equivalent to
10 per cent. of his salary; the Fourth
National Bank gave from $25 to $3.50
apiece to it's clerks, and the Continental
gave from $3.50 to $500 apiece. Such
liberality is to be commended. especially
if the bank iofhcers are distributing their

The ChiIIian soid;ery has treated Peruvian
women with gross brutality. This rumor
spread like wildfre, and finally the streets
were filled with abandoned Peruvian
women, and with the lower classes OF both
sexes. A large number of native Gillian
women reside here and in Lima, many of
them being married to foreigners. while
others belong 10 the abandoned order. a
cry was raised of Death to the Chiiinos,"
and rush was made for the quarter
where the latter class of Chilian women
live. Upwards of twenty or thirty of
rated mob of viragos, denuded of their
clothing, dragged through the streets by
the hair, and pe!ted with rocks until they
were in frightful condition Of suffering.
Two or three were jumped upon, kicked,
cut, and otherwise maDgied, and left life
less jn the streets without any covering
over their bodies. After turning over
about sixty Gillian women to the Provost
guard, the mob made rush for the Hotel
de lquique, where respectable Chlian
women live. There the same scenes were
enacted as before, if not worse, as by this
time the viragos were iDfamed By. LIQUOR

Illinois Appsllate Court.


Quincy DID Heral1.
The appellate courts of Illinois we're
instituted to relieve the state supreme
court from the pressure of certain class
of cases appealed from the lower courts.
Tits effect has been primarily a success,
and the dockets of the supreme court have
been greatly iightened By the operations
of the appellate courts Il is probable,
however. that the advantage at first
gained by tie supreme court will be par
tally lost, because when the appellate
courts remand cases to the lower courts
where they originated, the next appeal
will be to the supreme court. Other cases
such as the increase of general business,
and the repeal OF tue national bankrupt
Law; will also c0nspire to crowd the dockets
Of the upper tribunal.

Grants Expenses in Philaaelpaia.

Before the City of Philadelphia took
any official action respecting the reception
of Gen. Grant, the President of the Com
mon Council was informed that If the city
would receive Grant in its corporate
capacity, two or three of Grants personal
friends would pay the expenses attending
that reception. Upon that assurance,
the hospitaiities of the City of Philadel :
phia" were rendered to Gen. Grant. and a
reception upon grand scale-planned by
Mr.. George W. Childs-was given him.
After the city had undertaken to receive
Grant, it could not back down without dis
honor because the 1.-TWO or three personal
friends of the General failed to furnish
the money to pay for the reception. In
consequence, the city was forced to make
an appropriation of SIS, 900 to pay for the
entertainment given Grant But. what Is
most singular of all is, the city has just
paid out of its treasury 800 for music at
the residence of MIR. George W. Childs on
the evening of his dinner TO Gen. Grant,
Secor Robson, Landaulet Williams. Gen.
Belknap and a few others, as the following
true copy of bill attests:

As the reception and dinner to Gen.
Grant given by Mr. G. W. Chiids at his
residence, Twenty.second and Walnut
streets, and that of Mayor Stokley were
private affairs, itShardly seems credible
that these gentlemen would permit a
bill for music to go before the Committee
for i's sanction, the coUuter-signatuTe Of

Treasurer, thereby becoming a public
