is ashore in the canal, but vessels can

gunOoats have already entered the canal
with troops.
The iron clads Infexible, Temeraire,
AgincOurt, Monarch, Penelope, two gun

department of the jail here for the pur-
pose of quieting some Obstreperous in

himself in corridor, he was Immediate

prostitute, who, with several others, sue
ceeded in throwing him upon the floor
and taking from him his club. She
then clubbed him in an unmerciful
manner, and ended by locking him up
in cell, she marching up and down be-
fore it, singing ribald songs, and taunt-
ing him in other ways. Davis, by firing
his revolver through the roof, finally at
tracted the attention of night watch

only to be attacked in furious manner
by Jessie Siles, another nymph, who bit
his hands and arms in terrible man.

with fury, clubbed Mamie Johnson in a
brutal manner and locked her up in q

HOW A REPUBLICAN CON
GRESHAM INCURRED HU-
BELLS DISPLEASURE.

WASHINGTON, August 21.-A story is
current tonight to the effect that GER
tain Republican Congressman is tremb-
ling in his boots in anticipation of an
expose which is to follow the return of
voluntary contributions and Hubbell,
of the Congressional Campaign Com
mittee, from his Michigan home. 1t
seems that this great man of our day"
got two thousand of the dollars cOllec-
ted by Hubbell from the labOrers at
He'll Gate and the teachers and pupils
at the Carlisle Barracks Indian School
for use in his district, which is account
ed doubtful. Having received his por-
tion he left the paternal mansion and
straightway proceeded to waste his sub
stance in riOtOus living. The money is
spent, the district still doubtful; all is
known and the committee, 1t Is said,
sternly refuse to kill the fatted calf; on
the contrary it is said the man will be
allowed to die politically of hunger and
thirst. So runs the tale.

Looking in on the sessions Of the Tariff
Commission to-day l found Representa-

spectator. l asked Mr.. Carlisle, who has
been for many years leading member
of the Ways and Means Committee, what
he thought of the testimony before the
commission, and Of the probable result
of it's work. He said that it reminded
him very much of the sessions of the
COMMITTEES on Ways and Means; that all
the peOple who came to make statements
were selfishly interested, and wanted
the tariff adjusted to suit their own OBJ
iects and views. He said what was

TRUTHS

The blood is the foundation Of
life, it circulates through every part
Of the body, and unless it is pure
and rich, good health is impossible.
IF disease has entered the system
the o3Ly sure and quick way to drive
it out is to purify and enrich the
blood.
These simple facts are well
known, and the highest medical
authorities agree that Hokhing but
iron will restore the blood to its
natural condition and also that
all the iron preparations hitherto
made blaeken the teeth, cause head
ache, and are otherwise injurious.
Browns IRON BITTERs will thor
oughly and quickly assimilate with
the blood, purifying and strengthen
ing it, and thus drive disease from
any part Of the system, and it will
net blacken the teeth, cause head
ache or constipation, and is posi-
lively not injurious.

Eyebrows of Beauties.
From the Hairdresser.

Though it is Indispensable to
beauty to have the eyebrows of a
dark color and also protection to
the sight, as they are the natural
shade of the eye, yet when they be-
come larger and shaggy it gives a
look of vulgarity and is also mark
of old age. We must request you to
attend to this and, if the hair grows
too long aud thick, to keep it down
with the scissors. If this E9 not
sufficient, some Of the longest hairs
may be removed by the tweezers.
The same means may be tried and
are much better and safer than any
depilatory to diminish the entent Of
the eyebrows and prevent them from
spreading. We have very different
taste in this respect from the ancient
Romans, who considered it indis-
pensable in beauty to have her eye
brows meet, which is in Scott nj
called ''lucken browed," from a no
ton that persons whose eyebrows
are so formed is, or should be, lucky.
Instead, therefore of painting the
space between the eyebrows to imi-
tate hair we consider it more hand
some to have all the hair removed
and the eyebrows well separated.
The Roman fashion, it must be con
fessed, formed better outWork to
prevent the perspiration of the fore
head from falling into the eyes and
this, besides forming shade for the
light, is their chief office, according
to Socrates, who instances the form
and place of the eyebrows as strong
argument for Providence.
A MIRACLE. Whenever there is
an extraordinary occurrence team
runs over a child without hurting
it a mechanic falls from third
story window, and in week after
he is at work again, we are won't to
eXclaim, what a miracle !" So,
when Mrs. L. S. Ererline, then of
Allegheny City, Pa, had been sick
with Consumption for very long
time, had been told. by several of the
best physicians of that city that her
time was but for a few hours, that
must die, and when the use of
but one bottle of Perltnd in a weeks
time placed her on he feet again and
made her the heartiest eater Of the
family, all the people around, as
with one rejoicing voice, exclaimed,
"What wonderful miracle /" See

STRANGE FATALITY.

and new disease, which has DO
symptoms" The animals dying
are generally those in best condil
ton. They 60 about apparently al
we'll as ever until they suddenly fal
dead. Mr.. Ed. Miller counted twen4
ty that had died in this way on Elm
creek, all within comparatively
short distance Of one another. 1t is
supposed that this fatality comes of
eating some poisonous weed, per-
haps the loco. This weed, we be-
licve, has little or no effect upon
grown cattle, which do not eat so
freely of it; but it is easy to believe
that to young cattle, filling up on it
alone, it might act as poison in
place of proving mere intoxicant
rs it is to horses. But whatever is
the cause, the loss to stock owners
in those parts will be considerable
if the disease continues to any
nngth.-- Mohcetic Panhandle.

Meeting called to orsder by Pres

Of the Barbour county Cattle Asso-

president. Ed Hewins moved that

izens of Medicine Lodge for the in
vitation. Carried.
Chairman of inspection commit
tee asked further time. Granted
In regard to limiting the width of
trail for through cattle, Mr.. Fitch
thought dead line would be of no
use, as the dyovers would drive as
they please anyhow. Mr.. Snow
thought the drovers were as consid-
crate as ought to have been expect
ed. Mr.. Carnegie thought proper
resolutions embodying request for
drovers to keep within certain boun-
daries, would accomplish something.
Several gentlemen participated in
the discussion, most Of them hold
ing the opinion that Texas drovers
would do all they could to prevent
their stock from ranging among
wintered cattle.
Mr.. T. f. Pryor then offered a res
olutiolf to the effect that commit
tee of three be appointed by the
chair, to draft an address to- Texas
cattle drovers, embodying the reso-
luton adopted by the convention
held at Caldwell, March 18th 1881
