shooting a, Elera,ea Trains.

New YORK, November 11.-An instant
after Conductor Fuegirra's train, started
from the Houston street station of the
Ninth Avenue Elevated railroad, about
1920 O'Clock Friday evening, somebody fired
a pistol shot from building on the east
side of Greenwich street. The bullet per-
forated a quarier-inch pane in car-window
less than six inches from repor er's head,
leaving a neat hole, without spliniering the
glass much, and went out through the oppo-
site window, leaving a similar evidence Of
its passage. The relative positions of the
two holes also showed that the shooter had
stood in second-story room of one of the
tenement houses that make row at that
point, but the windows OF those buildings
were all darF, and there was no way of
finding out anything more definite. Some
of the passengers were disturbed by the in
cident, but the conductor says such things
are of frequent occurrence.

to place the subject under the influence of
ether aud other aresthetics, but the patients
system refused the influence of the strongest
applications. DIR. A. G. Smith, one of the
surgeons Of the dispensary, attempted mes
meric influence on the patient, which was
speedily effected, the patient remaining in
sensible to pain when pin was stuck nearly
through his hand. The operation for the
removal Of the tumor began at $3.50 o'clock
am. Owing to its size and the care neces-
sary it was NOT concluded until IL O'Clock,
during which time the incision was made,
and afterward the application of the usual
means to stop the flow Of blood. Tell was
kept hypnotised all the time. When the
operation had been completed the patient
was aroused. He stated that he had been
conscious of all that was said and done, but
felt no pain whatever. The operation was
performed by Drs. Smith and Koehler, of
the dispenssry staff, and is causing much
comment in medical circles as an improve
ment on the use of anestheiies. Tell is
doing finely.

READING, PA, November 11.-Another
dastardly piece OF train-wrecking took place
late last night on the Philadelphia and
Reading railroad, near Limerick Station.
1t was evidently the intention of the parties
to throw the late passenger train down the
embsnkm=nt at that point, az heavy timbers
had been thrown across the rails. An extra
coal traiu came along ahead of the passenger
locomotive was hurled down the bank and

Merchants Should Fix Upon y General
Payday.

0Sing to there not being an established
merchants payday" in this city, consider
able Inconvenience is experienced by all
merchants, e pecially the prompt-paying
ones. The custom of each house or firm
arranging its own piy-day has caused some
merchants to place their day az late as the
middle of the month. In fact, very few
merchants who have payday" place The
date earlier than the 9th, while some hang
up cards notifying the collector that Eve pay
on the 10Th" OF course this is all wrong.
aDd while little or no good results from such
course, much annoyance and trouble is occa-
stoned. 1t is within the Jurisdiction of our
Chamber Of Commerce TO regulate the "mer-
chants monthly payday" and it is hoped
they will take action on this subject at an
early day. FROM IsT TO 3D.

AS WE supposed, Gen. A. P. Stewart, chan
cellor Of the University of Mississippi, knows
nothing of and has no hing to do with the
"Aryan Order of America" He is too sen-
sible, too practical a uan, and too much of
an American and Democrat to waste mo-
ment upon such ineffsbly nonsensical ard
absurd pretensions as this "Aryan Order"
exists 10 perpeiuaie. The real aristocraey Of
this country is made up Of the industrious,
honest men and women who labor and by
laboriug maintain and porpetuate the :
public. The toiling millions who in schools,
colleges, uuiyersitieF, shops and sior,s, in
Offices and banks, TN railroads and steam
bosts, steamers and ships, keep up the busy
hum OF cea-eless industry and progress.
These are our Aryans, the aristocracy we
deli ght to honor.

On the third Pags of this ifsue OF The AP
PEAL We publish some very valuable staiis-
Tics from paper recently read by Mr.. Clark
Bell before the Medico Legal Soeiety OF New
York on the topic Legislation 10 Prevent
Suicide" Mr.. Bell gives many interesting
sisiistic-, aud shows that, potwilhs' anding
suicide has always been treated and Ie-
garded as crime, it is largely on the in
crease. In France there are more than 5000
annually. Portugal has the smallest ratio
OF suicides, and Denmark the largest OF all
nations. In San Franc SEQ and the principal
towns of Nevada the proportion is larger
than in n York, Philadelphia or Brook
Iyn. Though laws against suicide have been
severely denounced By many writers, Mr..
ELL thinks much can be accomplished by
them to psfveut or at least lessen the crime.
He says what is needed is additional force
upon the moral sense Of the community 10
render the crime more generally odious and
detestable.
