The Amerioan Agriedtvist says "fesons," !"
which are usually termed "Whitlow" by
physicians, we believe, are a very painful
and often very serious affection of the fin
gers, generally of the last joints. and often
ncsr or ipyoss{ug the nails. As the fingers
are much exposed to bruises, felons are quite
common among those who constantly use
their hands at hard work. If allowed to
continue until matter (pus) forms, and the
periosteum or bone sheathing is affected,
lancing is necessary; but il taken in time, a
simple application Of copal varnish, cover
ing 1t with banda9e, is highly recon-
mended. If the varnish becomes dry and
unplcasantly hard, little fresh varnish
may be applied from time to time. When q
cure is effected, the varnish is easily remov-
ed by rubbing into it q little lard and wash
ing with soap and water. DIR. A. B. Isham
details, in Medical News" number Of
cases of It's application with uniform sue
cess, where formation of pus has not previ-
ously occurred. In two cases there was ap-
parently combination of the run around
with the felon, and in all of them there
was swelling. redness, heat, and great pain.
He suggests the use of copal varnish for
felons, run arounds," boils. and any loc~I
acute Inflammation of external parts.

THE eighth wonder of the world, hui
man being in flesh and intelligence, with
the perfect bones and movements of bear,"
is what attracted the Somerset small boy
for the past three or four days. The bear
man is nothing more than horribly de-
formed man, whose only resemblance to .
bear is that he walks on all fours, and. a.
some of our young friends can testify, is
prodigiously fond of mutton" We don't
know that the latter feature. however, is ct
all peculiar to the bear. but think it more
resembles the trait of some of the dogs of
this section. The one humorous feature
about this terrible nonstroeity was that he
would glance around his audience until he
would single out some one who showed
more fear of him than his fellows, then
spring;ng at him with the CRY, there's NUT
ton," would take him cantering about until
the 8 keeper would interfere

New Churches.

Herman Schapekam, the architect,
last week showed us the plans and
specifications for the new Lutheran
church which will he built in this ci.
ty the coming summer. 1t will be
built on State street in the near vicin.
ity of the old church, and will be one
of the handsomest church structures
in the Minnesota Valley. The main
building will be of brick, affect wide,
70 feet long and q feet high, and the
steeple will be 12xl2 feet and lis feet
high. A clock will be placed in the
steeple which will tole the speed of
time every Is minutes. The cost of
the structure is estimated at $4,000.
The Methodist congregation, whose
church was entirely destroyed by the
July cyclone, also intend erecting
new church the coming summer. The
location of this church has not been
definitely decided upon, but we under.
stand that it will be built somewhere
in the vicinity of Third North and
State streets, but not on the site of the
old structure. 1t will be of frame, 80
feet wide and so feet long, with an ad.
dition of l6x2O feet. The steeple will
be 30 feet high. This, too, will be a
handsome structure and a credit to the
congregation.

THE IMPEACHMENT TRIAL.

The High Court of Impeachment
raconvened in st. Paul yesterday. The
first two days will be consumed in
hearing arguments of counsel for the
defense, after which the first on the
long list of witnesses will be called and
the tedious task of taking testimony
will again commence. What the de.
Tense intends to prove, or disprove, re.
mains to be seen, but it will be very
difficult for them to impeach the most
damaging portion Of the testimony
adduced by witnesses for the prosecu.
ton. In several instances all the per.
sons that were witnesses to Cox s orgies
testified for the prosecution, and it
will trouble him and his learned atto,.
neys nightly to get over their testi-
mony. We understand that at least fif
teen persons have been subpnnaed
from this city to appear for the defense
and that several more are to be sub.
p9naed as the trial progresses.

Arthur Penn relates this little anec-
dote:
l am minded here of story told me
a year or two ago by one of the FORE
most of American authors--a story
which, of course, has nothing to do
with Mr.. Joaquin Miller, but which
nevertheless is not without pertinence
at this issue.
! A certain writer of fiery and Byronic
verse. whom we may call the poet-lari-
ate of the plains. once went into the
office OF prominent magazine and said
to the editor thereof:
''Mr. C., do you ever lie?''
Naturally enough, the editor told him
that editors never lied-except some-
times, on compulsion, about their Cir
culation.
"Well, I do" said the songster of the
Sierras. Il can't help it. My imagin-
alton runs away with me- Now, for in
stance. you remember that poem of
mine you printed in the last number of
the magazinep''
The editor recalled it without effort.
II was dining in Brooklyn last
night" said the poet-lariate, .'and told
my friends that you had sent me a
check for $3.50 for that poem, and that
1had thought it too much and that
had returned you $3.50. Now, you know
you only paid me $25 for it, but
couldn't help lying about it to them.

Letter from Washington Territory.

SEATTLE, WASH. TER, JAN. L., 'S2.
Editor Review:
The REVIEW is a WELDON visitor to
me here in the far vest territory.
When sit and read it l always feel
us it was back home, but when I've
got through with am glad that I am
here surrounded by green tir.trees
which give the appearance of summer
although it is midwiDter. 1t is pretty
lively here this winter and plenty of
work at good wages. Everything has
improved very much since l came here.
Over three hundred houses have been
built since last spring, among them
two brick buildings of good size, and
the coming summer it will grow
still better.
Whether Seattle is going to be the
terminus of the North Pacific r. r.
or not, it is bound to grow on account
of it's good harbor and being the cen.
ire of Puget Sound. The leading TRACE
is here. Our fisheries are as good as
any on the coast; the salmon
here are as good as those caught in
the Columbia river.
There are four iron steamers now
carrying coal from here to san Fran
CISCO, with tonnage of from 25O-3OO
tons: Two passenger steamers make
regular trips up this way. Almost
