The Army Boys Reunion.

PITTsBURG, October 2.-The Grand
Army of the Repuk klle Of Pennsylvania
Ohio and West Virginia held o reunion
here to-day, and seldom has such ia
turnout Of veterans been seen in this
country since the close of the war.
The streets were thronged early in the
morning, and it is estimated that not
less than $4,000 strangers were in the
city. Tho railroads were taxed to
their utmost capacity, and adjoining
towns and villages within a radius of
one hundred miles were almost depopu-
lated so great was the influx to this
city.
The principal streets and many side
ones put on their holiday attire, and
the decorations OF evergreen, bunting
and banners were most complete. The
procession started promptly at2 O'Clock,
with over 5000 veterans In line, besides
a half hundred brass bands and drum
corps. All along the route the greatest
enthusiasm prevailed. Tonight mon
ster camp fire and bean bake took place
in the Allegheny ColliseumIand was at.
tended by several thousand of the boys
in blue. Other banquets and reunions
of regiments, were held in different por-
lions of the city.
The crowd on the streets is st IL great
at late hour, but is gradually thin
ming out. No accidents have been re-
ported. The last great gathering of
old soldiers in this city was on Septem-
Der II and 1S, 1879, ten years ago.
Since three notable men who were then
present-Meade, Hooker and Burnside
have gone to muster with the great
majority. These officers each held the
position of Commander of the Army of
the Potomac.

AMYSTERIOUS DEATH.
4 Prisoner Dies in his Cell Last
Night,

Yesterday afternoon Officer Cathcart
was requested to arrest a drunken man
who was acting in a disorderly man.
nsr on Market street, between Sixth
and Seventh streets. The man resisted
and the officer had considerable Difficult
ty In getting him to the hall, but final
ly succeeded in lodging him in cell.
At the hearing last evening he gave
his name as John Nelson, and said that
he was not as drunk as he let on to be,
but was poisoned. He was taken back
70 the cell, and about 2 O'clock this
morning WAS removed from cell No. 4
to No. l. At that time he appeared all
right, and asked the officer for a drink
of water, which was given him. Moth
ing more was seen or heard of him
until about 6 o'clock this morning,
when an officer entered the cell to
awaken him, aud found he was deed.
The body was not swollen, neither
were there any signs of convulsions,
and it is thought he died in his sleep.
Whether the man had been poisoned or
has taken his own life will be sub.
jeCt for investigation by coroner 3
jury. Nothing 10 known about him,
whether he belonged to this city or was
stranger, as he answered all the ques-
tiOns Of the officers with curses.
Tne Coroner was notified and had
the body removed to the Morgue, where
an inquest will be held.

the Coming Amusement Bensm.
IHOn,

The excitement aug ments each mo-
ment as the near approach of the Bar
mum and London shows Is talked off on
every corner and locality. The date,
Friday, October 18th, will be, an event
never to be forgotten by those who at
tend. The Newark N. J.) Register
says in a late issue SO general was
the interest that some factories and
schools closed, while others were slim
ly attended.
The parade was gorgeous pageant
of wagons, respondent with gold and
mirrors, which reflected the delighted
countenances of the multitudes, dens
of lions, leopards, tigers and other rare
beasts, triumphal cars, band chariOts,
men and women on horseback, and a
hundred other curiosities. In the cen
ire of the menagerie there stood Jumbo
towering above his score of companions
and as a Datural consequence was the
one object of observation. He appears
not to have suffered any from his jaunt
around the country, and received in
his trunk all the little dainties, offered
him by the visitors. Near him stood
the baby elephant just sixteen weeks
old, which was as frisky as a kitten,
and already will answer the voice of
the keeper.
The greatest attraction at first an
nounced we're Jumbo and the baby ele-
phant, but when it was subsequently
stated that the great, the only P. 7.
Barnum would be present in person,
hundreds decided to go who at first had
remained undecided, and fully 10000
people assembled under the canvass.

Mayors Court.

There were large number of spscta.
tors present at Police Court last even
Ing, and the following cases were
disposed Of:
John Hull was charged by neighbor
named Jones with abusing and cruelty
treating an infant child nine months
old. Jones testified that he lives next
door to the defendant, and the child
has had the whooping cough for the
past six weeks, during which time he
has frequently heard Hull whip the
babe and shake 1t. On several occa-
sions the blows were accompanied with
curses, and he had heard the defendant
say the child ought to have It's neck
broke. He had never seen him strike
1t, but had heard the sound of blows.
Mrs Jones testified to the same effect,
and swore the voice she heard was that
Of Mr.. Hull. The mother, Q nice look
ing young woman, had the child in
court, and at the request of the Mayor
took it to his desk. She admitted that
the father had smacked it several times,
especially at night, when he was tired
and 1t cried and kept him awake.
Austin Harrington, Esq, who ap.
peared for the s. P. G. c., said that he
would not ask for conviction this
time, bus would request the Mayor to
inform the defendant if there were any
more complaints Of like nature he
would be prosecuted to the extent of
the law.
The Mayor said he knew it was very
annoying to be kept awake at night
after person had worked hard all day,
still man must learn to curb his tenn
per and not abuse an infant. He woald
let the case remain as it was, without
giving decision, but if the defendant I
was again brought before him he would
punish him severely without any fur
ther trial.
John Nelson was charged with being
drunk and disorderly. The prisoner
denied the charge, and said some one
had poisoned him. The Mayor ad-
judged him guilty and imposed fine
of So and costs.

A. B. Hepbdrn, the Republican
candidate for Congressman at. Large in
New York, has written a letter to J.. f.
Smyth, chairman of the Republican
State Committee, declining the nomi-
nation. He says, in his letter of declina-
ton: at is quite apparent that, owing
to the unfortunate circumstances that
have come to light since the adjourn
ment of the Convention, a very large
portion. of the Republicans of the State
are not disposed to accept its conclu-
sions as an authoritative utterance of
the party. Nothing should be left an
done to secure the unity and harmony
of the party, and 1 don't think it right
to enter upon the canvass without an
earnest effort in that direction.

Bradley was arrested here to-day on
suspicion OF having stolen a pair of
horses and wagon in Hagerstown on
Saturday night. He was ordered to
jail in charge of Constable Ryan, and
while on the way Ryan took from the

the Jail Ryan got down from the wagon
in which they rode from the Magis
trate's office, when Bradley drew re-
volver and fired at the constable. The

The Connecticut Elections.

HARTFORD, Conn, Oct. 2.-Most of
the towns of the State held elections for
town officers to-day, The vote was
generally very light. In Hartford the
Democrats elected all the town officers
except the treasurer, who is a Republi-
can. Middletown and Bloomfield are
Democratic and Waterbury is RepubIi-
can. West Hartford, Wethersfield,
Berlin, Andover, Meriden, Windsor,
Glastonbury and Sheffield, also elected
Republican town officers.
Hartford, MiddletOwn, New Britain,
Meridien and most Of the larger towns
vote for license, and some of the small.
or towns for no license. The principal
political issue in the town elections is
in obtaining a majority of the Board of
Registration, which consist of the Sc
rectmen and Town Clerk. The law now
allows of minority representation on
ali Town Boards In Hartford last
year, the Republicans elected a majori-
ty of the town otfiCels.

Suicide ON q WIfo'S Grave.

=
Six months ago Max Lowenstein
was happy husband and father. On
Sunday he blew his brains out over his
wife's grave. His little daughter died
on May 9th, and two days after the
child was buried in newly bought lot
in Green wood cemetery. On July 7th
LOwenstein visited the Vice President
of the Cemetery Company in a state
bordering on distraction. "My God, !"
he cried, wringing his hands and cry
ing like child, 81 don't want to live
now. My wife is dead, and I'll be the
next" When his wife was buried he
spent lengthy vigils at her grave, some
times remaining day at a time. On
Sept. 8 another of his children, a boy,
died at Chester. This was the third
death in FIVE months and Lowenstein
was completely broken down. He
spent all day on Friday lying on his
wife's grave. Yesterday he kissed his
children and said he was going Un a
long journey. He went quickly to the
cemetery and threw himself on the
grave Of his wife. While in this posi-
ton he put a pistol to his head and
blew his brains out. The suicide lived
at Centreville, Camden, and leaves

Ithur1eI's spear.

One touch of it transformed the toad
at the ear of Eve into his true Satanic
shape, and sent him away. The toad
of disease is silently issuing his venom,
not at the ear, but at the kidneys and
liver of many a man who, feeling out
of SORTS" does not know just what ls
the matter with him. BY and by, when
the mischief is done, and Bright's
Disease or some other terrible malady
has set in, he discovers his ailment
only to despair of its cure, Now Hunts
Remedy is as Ithuriel' Is spear. Its touch
reveals the disease in its true shape,
and then dismisses it from the system.
Even in the worst cases of kidney COM
plants, it is not too late to call Hunts
Remedy in. 1t has snatched many
from the very jaws Of death.
