aTrout Fishing Duck.

A fisherman near Winchester, Virginia, &C., cidentally threw his line across strong white duck, which, suddenly turning around, twist ed the leader around her own neck, and fixed the hook of the dropper fly in her breast Thus entangled and hooked, she soon broke off the leader above the dropper, and sailed down the stream with the end of the fly trailing behind her. She had not proceeded far before trout, of about pound and 8 half, took the fly effectually. Then began 8 struggle as extraordinary as ever was wit nessed-a duck at the dropper and large trout at the end of the fly. Whenever the trout exerted itself, the terror of the duck was very conspicuous, it futtered it's wings and dragged the fish. When the trout was more quiet the duck evidently gave way and suffered herself to be drawn under some bushes, where the shortness of the leader did not allow the trout to shelter herself. The head of the duck was frequently drawn un- derneath the water. By chance, however, the leader got across branch which hung downward into the water, and the duck, talk ing advantage of the purchase which this gave her, dragged her opponent from his hole and obliged him to show his head above the water Then it became contest of life and death The trout was in it's last ago. nies, and the duck in very weak state, when the leader broke and suffered them to depart their own way.

From MT. IT. M. Cox, s5 St. John Street.

NEW HAVEN, July 3.
 It gives me great pleasure to bear witness to the remarkable skill of Dr. Lighthil and the successful results of his treatment. For the past thirty-six years had been troubled with catarrhal complaint, which was very annoying and often interfered with my swal- lowing and breathing. Of late years it at tackled my hearing, inpaning it toa consid- erable extent, and as it kept constantly in creasing upon me it subjected me to serious inconvenience. One of Dr. Lghthil1's pa- tients, finding himself greatly benefited by his treatment, advised me to place myself un- der his care, and happily did so. Dr. Light hill efectually removed the catarrhal com plaint and all it's attendant troubles, and re- stored my hearing to it's former perfection and acuteness know Dr. Lighthill's repu- tation is so well known that any recommen- dation on my part is scarcely necessary, but feel like discharging duty to the afflicted in New Haven and vicinity to make this pub lie statement of my case, so that others may be enabled to embrace this opportunity of obtaining relief.
 My happy experience of the results of Dr.. Ighthill's efforts has taught me to appreci- ate fully the value of specialties in, medical practice, and I feel assured that few min utes' conversation with Dr. Lightnill will con- vince the most skeptical of the fact that he is master of his profession

 Catarrh and Diseases of the IF Throat and Lungs.
From MT. J. H. Mehafey,
267 Atvwater sfreet,

NEW HAVEN, August 20, 1880.
 au Permit me to add my testimony of Dr. Lighthilps skill and success to that of MT. Cox and others, as have every reason to speak in terms of the highest praise of his successful efforts in my behalf. When a month ago applied to him for relief was great sufferer A catarrh which had af- hicted me for some time past, recently be- came so aggravated that it impaired my hear ing and gave rise to such agonizing pain and distress in my head that it nearly drove me insane. In fact, such result could scarcely have been otherwise if Dr. Lighthill had not afforded me such marvelous1y prompt relief. One treatment proved the efficacy of his method for when I left his office I was in most inexpressible relief That night rest ed comfortably, and in the morning felt like a new man. Ever since then steady inn provement has taken place in my case, the most stubborn features yielding readily to Dr. Lighthill's> skillful management. The pain has entirely disappeared, my hearing is restored and 8 troublesome cough, which se- iAouSiy ttIdfIAeu ny ArlouuS, ls dliNOSb 0uLlf0- ly gone. My whole system, in fact, has been so much benefited that all my acquaintances notice the favorable change. Like many oth- CTS, had spent much money and time in fruitless efforts to obtain relief before I ap- piled to Dr. Lghthin, and I can therefore recommend the doctor with the confidence of a long experience. I am an employe of the Boston and Air Line Railroad Company, and reside at 267 Atwater street, and will cheer fully substantiate in person what have here put in writing. J. H. MEHAFFEY.

For upward of twenty-five years Dr. Light hill has been at the head of an extensive met ropolitan practice, devoted exclusively to the relief and cure of Deafness, Catarrh, and dis eases of the Throat, Lungs and Nervous Sys- tenn, and it is with pardonable pride that he refers to the extraordinary success which at tended his efforts His recent discoveries are of the highest practical importance, render ing treatment so effectual that relief is expe- rienced at once, and permanent cures are of- ten effected in the most stubborn and aggra- vated cases; and it is one of the happy fea- lures of his method that the applications cause neither pain nor distress, and can be readily administered to the most timid or nervous person A candid opinion will inva- riably be given as to the possibilities of cure, and no case will be accepted for treat ment which does not present reasonable chance for success, while those who place themselves under Dr. Lighthill's professional care may rest assured of receiving every ben- eft guaranteed by science, skill, and an ex- tensive experience.

 It affords me great pleasure to add my tes- imony to that of others in favor of Dr. Lighthill's success in the cure of catarrh. His treatment of my wife has proved so ben eficial that cheerfully recommend him to the confidence of the afflicted. The catarrh in the case of my wife was of long standing and in it's worst form, against which many remedies had been tried in vain. The very first treatment applied by Dr. Lighthil per manently removed some of the most trouble some features and the results ever since have been of the most gratifying character. Our people may congratulate themselves on hav- ing at their command the services of a phy- sician so skil1ful as Dr. LighthiH in the treat ment of that troublesome disease, catarrh

The Cape Codders are jubilant now that actual work is progressing on the long hoped for canal, which committee of the General Court of Massachusetts recommended in 1897, on the grounds that it was thought by many persons to be very necessary for the preservation of men and estates, and that it will be very profitable and useful for the pubGc.'' A force of only 115 men is now employed, but it will in a few days be in creased to 1000 or 1,5oO. The digging this year will be confined to land above high water mark. The outlet of the canal will be in Sandwich harbor instead of Scusset beach as at first proposed.

'sSignal-deafness'' is the latest. This is a disregard of signals among railroad men, due to hearing so many of them that the ear dulls towards that particular sound It is grow ing evil, not congenital, and liable to come on an employe at any time; more liable the longer he is employed.

The joint debate which Mir. Culberson, member of Congress from Texas and candi- date for reelection, recently had with the Greenback candidate in his district, was de- cidedly interesting in one particular at least. The Greenbacker charged that the Democrat ic party was in favor of sustaining the na- tiona1 bank system, which Culberson prompt ly and laboriously denied. He quoted the declaration of the national platform in favor of currency '' consisting of gold and silver and paper convertible into coin on demand" maintaining that this excluded the national bank currency which was not convertible into coin on demand. Insisting that there was no ambiguity in the platform on this point, he argued that, if there was, the whole record of the party fur nished commentary upon and interpretation of it that made the meaning plain and un- questionable. He quoted Jefferson, Jackson, Calhoun and Benton in opposition to the doc Urine that the national government could au- thorize bank issues, and carefully reviewed the congressional legislation touching the present national bank system, to show that the Democratic party had consistently fought the banks from the beginning, the Democrats from Texas acting together, and almost every Southern Democrat opposing steadily any congressional action which was favorable to these corporations. Admitting that there were some Democrats from the North who were friendly to the banks, he vehemently declared that they had not now and never had controlling influence. Mir. Culberson is unquestionably correct. There is nothing but hostility to the national banks in the rul- ing portion of his party
