A Sensible Dinner-Giyer.
From the y. Y. Herald.

When Il man wants TO give big
dinner in celebration of some partic-
ular event he usually selects his guests
from the class that dimes so much and
exercises so little that it is too fastid
ious to heartily enjoy such parts of n
repast rs are served in bottles. Re-
cantly, however, a St Louis contractor
signalized the completion of his work
upon very large building by giving a
dinner TO all the men whom he had
employed No matter how well spread
the home tables Of these honest fell
lows may have been, it may be safely
assumed that every man brought Il
good appetite to the contractors din
ner, for ten hours of steady work per
day insures good digestion and a keen
palate. Nor can there be any doubt
that there was good feeling around
the board The chances are about a
hundred to one that if ever that con-
tractors men think themselves under
paid they will not strike without no.
tice, nor stand sulkily about and wish
they dared to; they will select a clear
headed man or two to talk the matter
over with their employer, and not fear
that they will have to intlict any
wrongs in order 20 get their rights
Capital and labor ought to become bet
ter acquainted, and the best place to
do it is around well-covered dinner
table.

HOMEOPATHIC Medicines as . rule,
are not amenable to the chemical tests
and analyses used in testing drugs gen
orally Their reliability therefore de-
ponds solely on the character and repu-

of paramount importance that the

SEEKERS AFTER HEALTH.

Unfortunates who are seeking to renew
their health, are many. So often have they
been deceived by the advertisements of
worthless compounds that many are dis
couraged, and refuse to believe anything
they read in the papers. Therefore, the
best advertisement of a really good medi-
cine is the reputation it has gained in places
where it is being sold. No other remedy
ever discovered has grown SO rapidly in
public favor as that true medicinal tonic
called Browns Iron Bitters. In localities
where its extraordinary merits have become
fully known and realized by those who have
been in ill-health, the sale is unprecedented

commonly used. Reader, beware! duty

RUNAWAY ACCIDENT.
Mayor StRub and Wife Thrown From

Mayor StRub and Wife Thrown From
Buggy and Badly Hurt.
Between II and o'clock yesterday after
noon Mayor Peter Staub and his wife were
driving in their buggy, going down Asy-
um street, when the horse took fright and
ran at terrific speed down the street for two
or three squares. On arriving at the cor
her of Broad street the horse made sudden
turn, however, and started dashing down
towards the lanyard. In making the turn,
both Mayor Staub and his wife were dashed
violently out of the buggy, alighting against
the fence of Capt. S. P. Evans. The horse
was at once secured, but was SO frightened
that it was with much difficulty he could be
controlled.
Mayor Staub and his, wife were taken up by
friends who soon assembled and conveyed
into the house of Capt Evans, and Drs. A. b.
Tadlock and III. M. Alexander were speedi-
ly summoned to attend them. Mr.. Staub
in the forehead and top of the head, several
inches in length, caused by coming in con-
tact with the sharp edge Of painS. On ex-
animation, it proved to be only scalp
wound, however, the skull being uniniured.
He complained chiefly of an injury in his
back, which, it was feared by some, was
quite serious, aud he was placed in a
comparatively comfortable position on an
easy reclining chair. while the wound on his
! head was dressed.
| Mrs. Staub was found to have an ugly
cash in her head. and her right arm was
also badly sprained causing much pain,
but her injuries were of less serious na-
ture than those of her husband. She was
| given every possible attention by Mrs.
/ Evans Mrs E. C. Jones' from the Deaf and
Dumb Asylum, and other good ladies.
| Mr.. Staub soon became somewhat easier,
aud was carried to his home, on Heuiey
street, on the easy chair. Mrs. Staub was
able to be conveyed home in carriage.
After arriving home further attention was
given by the physicians, and the injury in

enough, was less serious than at first feared
Every attention that loving. and attentive
hands could bestow was given both the suf
fering parties, and they were resting as wei
as could be expected at our latest informa
ton.
The first reports of the accident were tt
the effect that the Mayor was dangerously
and perhaps fatally hurt and much anxiety
was felt by his numerous friende over the
city. We are glad to be able to state, how
ever, that it is no worse than it was L
might have been much worse, but was very
narrow escape. At best, the injuries re
ceived by both are quite painful, and vii
keep them housed for some days, perhaps
but we hope to be able to announce thei
entire recovery soon.
