A Well Developed Case at "A New
York lnfirmary,

New York, Nov. 3O.-A woman named
Kate Armstrong, AZ years old, widow,
and from Brooklyp, was given shelter in
the St Barnabas' Home in Mulberry
street, last night. This morning she
refused food and would not speak. She
wss apparently in trance. Police Sur
geon Dorm found her suffering from we'll
developed symptoms of feature of csta-
lepsy, very rare disease.
In whatever position an arm or leg is
placed there it remains, extended, bent or
cramped, az the case may be, utterly re-
gardless of the difficulty with which the
position might be maintained by person
in possession of his or her senses.
The patient can neither speak nor take
food. and has been known to remain in
this condition for month or more. The
special danger of the disease is starva-
ton, and food must be introduced into the
stomach through tube. In the case OF
Mrs. Armstrong all the symptoms were
fully developed. Her eyes were open and
her pinched features contracted in scowl.
She seemed to be entirely conscious, but
she was suddenly deprived OF all command
over her senses.
When set upon her feet she remained
standing like u statue, in the position in
which she had been placed Her eyes
were fixed upon the person towards whom
her head had been turned with an intense
gaze that was utterly devoid of will, but
not of intelligence. She was removed to
the St. Vincent Hospital. Her case will,
doubtless, excite much interest in the
medical profe 5slon.

A Dispute About the Hotel Hills at
the Chicago Convention.

The Hon. Warner NJ Bateman, brother
in-law of the Hon. John Sherman, was
interviewed Monday by the Cincinnati
Commercial in reference to the Chicago
hotel bills, and said, substantially Mr.
Sherman committed the care of his imme-
dlate personal interests at ChicsgO 10 Gen.
Garfield, Governor Foster, Governor Den

reasonable sum to d'f fray expenses. which
was on deposit with MIR. Drake Of the
Grand Pacific Hotel. except . portion held
by Thomas NJ. NchOl, Who, with myself,
managed the busiuesa matters. When
Sherman was beaten he turued his forces
to Gen Garfield, aud was successful in
nominating him.
up to this point Sherman paid all the
expense. After the convention MIR.
Nichol told me that he had paid all the
bills due Mr.. Drake. aud Mr.. Nlchol told
me that Governor Foster and Mr.. Everett
OF Cleveland representing General Gar.

only fair for the friends of General Gar
field to pay the bills yet unpaid and other
wise cbargesble to Mir. Sherman. Mr.
Nichol hac passed over 30 me the amount
in his hands belonging to MIR. Sherman,
and said he WAS authorized to draw drafts
and settle what remained unpaid. / al o

Louisville Courer-Journal.
Occasion a ly there appears wonderfully
fat man in the world, merely, as It would
appear, to show what could be done in
that way. Daniel L+mbert's girth, so far
as heard from, had pever been surpassed,
but the man who died a day or two ago in
Pennsylvania ran Daniel very close. He
was six feet high, eight feet
two inches wide, and weighed,
''undressed" 645t pounds 1t was sup
posed that he had lost 90 pounds in his
last sickness. Il is almost morally certain
that no man ever made an election bet
with this party, where the looser was to
take the winner several hundred miles in a
wheelbarrow. And it is also probable that
no individual, however cheerful 10 philos-
ophy, ever asked for reserved seat at a
theatre next adjoining the one occupied
by the pride of Pennsylvania. He was
sheriff OF the county, aud Doubt, IS cast
six votes for himself-s fair average.
suppose no man ever reached 200 without
having one perpetual, raging dream OF
getting down to 1899. At that point any
man is safe. With theory somewhat
analogous to that of Micawber on debt
one might say, 1879 pounds, perfect hsppi-
ness, POI pounds absolute misery.

Not a Startling ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Nherman's report.

WASHINGTON, Dec The President
has completed his message, and is holding
it in manuscript fearful of its premature
publication, and is in doubt whether to
print it or not 1t seems to be under
stood, however, among those who are
supposed to know what he had in mind to
say that he document contains nothing of
startling interest. Whatever importance
may attach to it will be from the fact that
General Garfield is believed to have been
consulted with reference to it, and that it
may therefore thrust out few pegs upon
which more or less speculation may be
hung during the winter.
1t is said, for instance, that no allusion
will be made to the tariff and that this
determine ion was brought about after
consultation with General Garfield. The
reason assigned is that the stand taken by
the Republicans in the late campaign
makvs silence necessary to avoid incoD-
sistency. Further than that it IS unlikely
that General Gartield's views will enter
into the message. although it will probably
not contain anything of which he dissp-
proves,
Secretary Shermau's report. from all
accounts, is likely to be Chi, fl interesting
because of the recommendations be will
make with reference to tie SILVER dollars
and silver legislation heretofore alluded to.

On Monday morning as George Harriet,
near Rising Sun, WAS driving with his
daughter TO the yellow school, in Chris
tiana hundred, he met with an accident
that might easily have cost the life of his
horse He was driving carefully up the
hill in Barley Mill lane when some hoys
started down the grades on sleds, which
frightened the horse into capering, the
result OF which was fall. No damage
resulted TO the wagon or its inmates but
it was thought for some time that the
animal had broken its leg. 1t was found
after examination, however, that the in
juries consisted only of severe strain in
one leg, which will keep the horse lame
for some days.
