CslerH for RheMnlntIsm .

In celery there must be some special virtue,
If We only knew what it is. Nothing is made
in vain, and the powerful smell and eXtraor-
binary taste of celery are intmatiohs from ma
lure that 1t has some special mission. MIR.
Ward, of Perristown Towers, Ross, writes that
rheumatism becomes impossible II celery Is
freely used as an article of diet Unfortunately,
he says cooked celery, for it is the article in
its raw state 10 which We are all accustomed
"Cut the celery" he says, "into inch dice
Boil IN water until soft. No water must he
poured away unless drunk by the invalid
Then take new milk, slightly thicken with
-four ana flavor with nutmeg; warm with eel
cry IN the sauce pan; serve with diamonds OF
toasted bread around the dish, and eat with
potatoes" Permit me to say" he adds, that
cold or damp never produces rheumatism but
simply developes it. The acid blood Is the
primary and the sustaining power of evil
While the blood il alkaline there can be nc
rheumatism and equally no govt" And Mr.
Ward proceeds to say: Let me fearlessly say
that rheumatism is impossible on such diet
aud yet our medical men allowed rheumatism
| to kill In 1876, 500 human beIngs-every
ease as unnecessary as dirty face"

STARS AND FLOWERS.

When Eve had led her Lord away,
And Cain had killed his brother,
The stars and flowers, the poets say,
Agreed with one another
To cheat the cunning tempter's art,
And teach the race Its duty,
BY keeping on It's wicked heart
Their eyes OF light and beauty.
A million sleepless lids, they say,
Will be At least warning;
And so the flowers would watch by day,
The stars from eve TO morning.
On hill and prairie, field and lawn,
Their dewy eyes upturning,
The flowers still watch from rcddening dawn
Till western skies are burning.
Alas! each hour Of daylight tells
A tale OF shame 30 crushing,
That some turn white as sea bleachcd shells,
And some are always Flushing.
But when the patient etars look down
On all their light discovers,
The traitors smile, the murderer's irOwn,
The lips Of lying lovers,-
They try to shut their saddening eyes,
And in the vain endeavOr
We see them twinkllng in the skies,
And go they wink forever.

Back for a Visit.

Ex-Ald. VIM. Golcher, of St. Paul, but now
hailing from San Francisco, where he has
been in business for several years, arrived
here by the M. & st. P. train from Chicago
yesterday afternoon. Mr.. Golcher and his
companion on the journey, MIR. VIII Lamb,
came by the new rail route, through southern
California, Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado,
etc., and has been eight or nine daye en- route.
Through Arizona and New Mexico the hot
weather was hard our travellers but when
their train had climbed out of New
Mexico, up the Colorado mountains, they
found big snow storm prevailing, and two
or three inches of snow on the ground Since
his arrival, he was busily occupied yesterday
afternoon in shaking hands, and making and
answering friendly inquiries. As Mr.. Golcher
grew up with St. Paul his "reminiscences,
brought up by his observations of the changes
going in the city, are full of striking Incl
dents of early days in St. Paul. He is looking
in splendid health, and, if he keeps his health,
he'll come back here some of these days to
enjoy it. But this time he expects to make
only a short visit among his old friends.

A HORRIBLE STORY.

New YORK, May 23.-The Telegram prints
the following sensational story under date OF
Paris to-day: On the strength Of letter
from St. Petersburg this forenoon the In.
tronsigeant announces that at Z o'clock ou
the morning of the 18th inst, Just four days
after the birth OF her child, Hessy Helfmann,
whom every body supposed to be alive and
awaiting the pleasure of Alexander, was
hanged1n the prison. It Is said she had been
tortured daily in the most fiendish manner
to wiring confessions from her. The night
after her confinement she was awakened and
warned her hour was near. For several days In
succession she was literally strung up and cut
down only just in time to prevent expiring.
On the morning of the 10th the hanging pro.
cess is said to have lasted little too long, and
when Hessy was cut down 1t was discovered
she had been strangled to death. The Intrcn-
sigcant adds that the Indignation and exotic.
ment in st. Petersburg is immense. Troops
are forbidden to leave their barracks on any
pretense, and revolutionary movement seems
to be anticipated
WAR ON THE JEWS.
ST. PETERSBURG, May 23.-Many rich Jews

4 PROBABLE MURDER.
But the Investigation Delayed SO Long
That the Fact is Not Clearly Proven.

But the Investigation Delayed SO Long
That the Fact is Not Clearly Proven.
The inquest on the remains of George
Fletcher was resumed at the sheriff's office
Yesterday morning. The only additional tes
timony was that of DR.. Wheaton, who testified
to the horrible condition of the remains, and
the almost impossible task Of working up a
satisfactory post mortem, and William Porten,
lawyer, who referred to the visit to his office
of man answering the description of Kelly,
who had threatened Fletcher's life. The tes-
timony was as follows:
DIR. WHEATON,.
DR.. Wheaton was sworn. Witness had eX-
amined the body; found it badly decomposed;
could not tell from ocular evidence whether 1t
had been injured before death or not; this
could be readily ascertained.
DR.. Davenport stated that post mortem
could not be made without an expense OF from
$50 to S100.
WILLIAM PoRTEN.
VIM. Porten, lawyer, testified as follows:
Have an Office with Nj. Mayall; had been vlsi-
ted by man week ago Friday; he answered
to the description given of Kelly;
he wanted to get $40 from Mr.. Mayall; he
stated that he had collected drift
wood under the direction of Fletcher; he said
that If he could not get the money from
Mayall he would get even with Fletcher; he
made threats against the latter; he was tall
man, heavily set.
THE VERDICT.
The jury found as follows:
We, the jury, find that deceased came to hi.
death by drowning in manner to this jury
unknown, but it is the opinion of this jury
that strong suspicion points towards two mer
known as Pat and VIM. Kelly, as possible
agents in the drowning of said Geo. Fletcher
AS will be seen by the verdict, strong susspi
eion points to the man Pat. Kelly as having
been implicated.in causing the death of Fletch-
er. 1t is understood that he disappeared come
DAYS ago, and that Fletcher's barge, about
which the fuss took place, is also missing.
The county authorities will probably take
some action.
The body of Fletcher was inferred by Me
Carthy & Donaelly yesterday afternoon at the
county's expense.

An Enciting Strmagle.

NEW YORK, May 23.-Tribune Albany
special: 1t promises to be an exciting week,
the most exciting, veteran observer said to-
day, since the Tweed charter was passed.
Both sides are very much in earnest,
both feeling they have a good deal
at stake, while the Democrats are standing by
in state of ecstacy hardly able to control
their own emotions, which tells them for the
first time in number of years they are body
of some consequence in the legislature. In a
few hours more the capitol will be surrounded
with politicians from all sections of the State
and members who do not propose to enter the
caucus, in which they will be bound to vote
for men whose only purpose in returning
to Washington is to make war upon the ad-
ministration, will be subject to a degree of po-
ltical pressure probably without parallel in
the recent history of the State. To this will
be added the personal persuasons of
Conkling himself, who whose presence presence
of strength to him and sign of his weak
ness. Conkling's habit has been to accept an
election to the Senate laid at his feet by
the loyal legislature. His coming to Albany
to pull the wires with his
OWN IMPERIAL HAND
and then to detain with his august figure
the buttonhole of every member, is new
thing for him and sharply marks the change
in his fortunes. To 60 into caucus or not is
the issue upon which the whole contest is now
shaping itself. The followers of Conkling
have undoubtedly majority of the Republi-
cans of the legislature. Eighty -one votes are
necessary to elect a Senator. There are 11S
Republicans in the Legislature. If
the Conkling faction can induce
81 men to 60 into caucus
they will not care in the least whether all vote
for Conkling and Platt in the caucus or not.
The majority would undoubtedly do SO. It
would be claimed that all par
ticipants were bound by their decision.
On the other hand the friends of the admin
istration think they can show Republicans are
under no moral obligation to enter such eau
Gus, and it is for the good of the party, as well
as their own, they should remain independent
of it. If only twenty-six Republicans refuse
to enter and vote for Conkling and Platt, the
twin candidates will have but eighty votes and
cannot be elected by the Republicans, and
twenty-six is small number compared
with the whole number of those who un-
hesitatingly disapproye of the reelection of
Conkling and Platt, barely half, and it would
seem strange indeed, if many more than
twenty-six are not ready to fight it out on
this line, if it took all summer.

bly, burned at an oil well south of this city to-

Talking Bolder.

WASHINGTON, May 23.-The Conkling men
here are talking bolder and more confidently
since Conkling has taken hold of the man.
agement in New York, and 1t is given out that
one night this week Conkling will, by invita-
tion, deliver speech in Albany. Gen. Kill
patrick, who has seen much OF Secretary
Blaine lately, says the administration members
of the New York legislature will not enter a
caucus for the nomination of Senator's, be-
cause the caucus will be fixed for Conkling
and Platt; that condition of affairs justified
anti Conkling members in refusing to go into
the caucus, for the reason that the decision of
the caucus will be determined beforehand, and
that the object of the administration party is
to beat Conkling, not help to elect him.
Ex-Sherif Daggett, of Brooklyn, now in
Albany, spent all last week here and is fully
advised of the views of the administration.
Among the latter supporters 1t Is held that
the interests of the Republican party requires
the defeat of Conkling. 1t is plain, however,
that there is nothing like such confidence of
ability to beat Conkling felt here now as
few days ago. Then everything seemed to be
against him, but he has rallied his friends and
his superb management of political battles is
not underrated. In administration circles the
opinions held that if Conkling gets back to
the Senate it must be by Democratic votes,
and that such reelection will deprive him of
the influence he formerly possessed in the Re-
publican party
