CONKLING WORSE THAN THE
GADARENES.
what the New Kork 'sTrIbune,, said
of Him.
Utta Observer.

Six years ago AMI over, in its issue of
March 2S, 1874, the New York Tribune
editorially accused Senator Conkling of
criminal completely in the Phelps Dodge
moiety swindle. These were its words:
1T was nothing to the people who
lived in the country of the Gadarenes
that one OF their own citizens had been
reclaimed from lunacy and made a
healthful member of society, so long as
the value of the hogs was imperilled.
1t was nothing to Roscoe Conkling, Matt
Carpenter, B. f. Butler, George Bliss,
and the official representatives of the
custom that the fair fame of the great
mercantile interest of New York was
sought to be struck down and aspersed
through their foremost representative for
an offense which every other civilized
nation would have held trivial, so long
as there was prospect of grabbing and
dividing 81, 726, ,000 ! We
are of necessity driven to the conclu-
sion that the motive which induced
Senators and Representatives of the
United States, Distric Attorneys, inde-
pendent but influential attorneys and
detectives to manifest such unusual
energy and to act so differently from
what they do when Peter Schmidt or
John Jones is accused of defrauding the
revenue of many times sixteen hundred
dollars, was simply and nakedly the de-
sire for plunder
This same Tribune assails Senator
Bayard now for having said in substance
what it stated even more Extensively in
1874.

EQUAL TO THE OCCASION. "A London
newspaper tells curious story about q
gentleman who proposedto to the lady who
Is now his wife at a dinner party. He
had been lover some time, but never
quite persuaded himself up to the point
Of popping the question. During the
eventful dinner he learned from the per
son sitting next him that rival intended
that evening to make an attack up
on his Dulcinea's heart She was sitting
some distance from him at the table, and
the rival was at her side. He was equal
to the emergency, however, for tearing a
half leaf from his note book. he wrote
upon it:
'.Will you be my wife2 Write your
answer, yes or no, upon the paper, and
return it to me-"
Calling a waiter the ingenious lover
sent the missive, ''to the lady in blue at
the end of the table-be very careful.
The servant did as directed, but the lover
in his anxiety forgot to send his pencil.
The lady had presence of mind, however.
and tucking the note into her bosom, said
to the water:
TEL the gentleman yes. .

Luminous Paint.
London Telegraph, December q.


Lieutenant Darwin has just cOmmu-
niceted to the Physical Society some
most interesting results On the loss of
phosphorescence from a surface Of
Balmain's luminous paint, obtained ia a
series of experiments at Chatham, the
lightness of the phosphorescent surface
being estimated by comparison with a
sun burner. A few minutes exposure to
reflected sunlight rendered the paint
phosphorescent, and vessel of ice and
water kept it cool. By this method
Lieutenant Darwin established the prin-
ciple that the rapidity of loss is nearly
proportional to the square of the inten-
sity of the phosphorescent light. In a
report on Balmain's paint as a safety
lamp infery mines, it was stated that the
osphorescence became brighter after
being a short time in the dark, but the
law of Lieutenant Darwin as explained
to the Physical Society proves this to be
an error. The increase of brightness is
only apparent, due to the fact that the
eye becomes more sensitive to light after
exposure to darkness, and this is sufficient
to make up for the real loss Of brightness
in the paint. Owing to their want of
heat phosphorescent substances would
be peculiarly adapted to light fiery mines
if they could be made to yield sufficient
light DIR. Crookes says that in sulphu-
retted hydrogen and moist air they are
apt to lose their phosphorescent property,
though they would keep unimpaired for
a long time if sealed in vacuum tubes.
One specimen is known to be at least
eighty years old and to be still highly
phosphorescent Substances of this
kind have been known for long time.
In !, $50 there is reference in Evelyn's
Diary to powder which bottled up the
sunshine.

been made by comparatively few.
The losses have been many, and the

instance, the advance from so to 114k

they have been immense. 1t is not strange,
therefore, if cursing among the speculative

FRowNING ON BRUCE's CLAIMs.-A
public invitation having been extended
to the colored people of Cleveland, Ohio.
to arrange for the reception on Wednes-
day of delegation of prominent colored
Republicans of Alabama, who are on
their way to Mentor to urge Senator
Bruce's claims to a seat in the Cabinet,
largely attended meeting was held,
in which it was decided in no way
to recognize the mission or aid its
objects. Resolutions were adopted that
Bruce had done nothing for his people
and much for himself, and that he is not
true representative of his class. A
telegram to the New York Times from
Cleveland says: .This action takes the
additional significance from the fact that
Bruce is well known here. He has pro-
perty in Clevel.-G, married his wife
here, and makes this city his home
through good part of the summer. A
counter demonstration is possible. Z

New Haven writes to the Medical and
Surgical Reporter of a queer case of the
power of imagination. A female patient
with chronic gastritis had habitually
taken morphine in the form of sleeping
drops" For the first few times she was
given morphine, but after this the
hos5ital physician had bottle carefully
labeled sleeping drops, and filled with
water. OF this she took a drachm at
ed-time. AT first she complained that
the medicine was. too strong and made
her head feel badly the next day, so that
the dose was reduced This she took
for nearly month, sleeping nicely when
she did take, and not sleeping at all
when it was kept from her for the sake
Of experiment.
