ElectIng a Great Med cine.

Recently tho Indians on Rancho
Chico, California, had lively sport in
their "sweat-house." A large crowd of
people from town Witnessed the dane
ing. Tie Dlggers kept up their horrid
yells until late III the night. This
"sweat-house" is built in the shape Of a
hill, or mound, an entrance being had
from hole in the top. It is built of
heavy lumber and covered with dirt.
The air inside is almost sitting, but the
Indians stay In the house for several
hours. Tho occasion of the Demon
stration recently was the election of n
medicine man, and the Indians we're
rugged out in their best dry goods.
This election business with the Indians
is conducted con the square," the best
man, physically, taking the office.
There is no chance tor casting illegal
ballots, and they don't trife with
great register. The two applicants
take their places in tho "sweat-house,"
and at n given signal they commence
dancing. 1t is not a graceful, gliding
waltz, but it is something after the
style of the "Highland Fling" tho
Indians jumping and kicking until a
person would think they would jerk
their limbs of. The man who can
stand this work the longest is the best
man, and is elected. Recently the fun
commenced in the forenoon, and was
not finished until midnight. Tie
jumpers gave out several times anu had
to be rubbed and bathed by their
friends. and finally one of the bucks
quit, saying he had all he could stand.

Treating u Cold.

1t Is not q correct practlco, after a cold
Is caught, to make the room person sits
in, much warmer than usual, to increase
the quantity OF bedclothes, wrap up in
flannel, and drink large quantity Of hot
tea, Cruel, or other slops, because 1t will
invariably increase the feverishness, and
in the majority OF instances, prolong, rath"
er then lesson, the duration Of the cold.
II IS we'll known that combining lnoculated
persons in warm rooms will make their
smallpox more violent by augmenting the
general heat and fever and 1t Is for the
same reason that a similar practice in the
present complaint Is attended with ana.
logous results, cold being in reality a
slight fever. In some parts of England,
among the lower order of tho people, a
large glass of cold spring water, taken on
gong to bed, is found to he a successful
remedy, and In fact, many medical prac-
tltloners recommend a reduced atmosphere,
and frequent draughts OF cold fluid, as the
most etflcacious remedy for recent cold,
particularly when the patients habit is full
and plethoric.
1t Is generally supposed that it is the
exposure to a cold or wet atmosphere
which produces the effect called cold,
whereas 1t is returning to warm temper
aturo after exposure, which is the real
cause Of the evil. When a person Ill the
cold weather goes into the open air, every
time he draws In his breath the cold air
passes through his nostrils and wlndplpe.
into the lungs, and consequently dimlnlshes
the heat Of these parts. AS long as per-
son continues in the cold air, he feels no
bad effects from It; but as soon as he re.
turns home, he approaches the fire to warm
himself, and very often takes some warm
and comfortable drink to keep out the
cold, it ls SAID The inevitable conee-
quence is. that he will find no has taken
cold. He feels shlverlng which makes
him diaw nearer the fire, but all to no
purpose; the more he tries to heat him
self, the more he chllls. All tho mischief
is here caused by the violent action of the
heat.
TO AVOID this, when you co ne out OF a
very cold atmosphere, you should not at
first 60 into room that has fire Ill t., or,
if you cannot avoid that, you should keep
tor considerable time at rs great d dist
anco as possible, and above AN, refrain
from taking warm or strong liquors when
you are cold. This rule is founded on the
same principle as the treatment of any
part OF the body when frost bitten. If it
were brought TO the fire it would soon NOR
tty, whereas, if rubbed with snow, no
bad consequences follow from it.. Hence,
if the following rule were strictly oh
served-when the whole body, or any
part of it Is chilled, bring it to It's natural
feeling and warmth by degrces-thc fire.
quent colds we experience III winter would,
III a gre at measure. be prevented.

The INDEPENDENT "dicker" for munici-
pal offices In Baltimore, in opposition to the
regular Democratic ticket, was completed
on Friday evening, and the battle is now
fairly under way. The "klckers" have the
candidate for Mayor and Clerk OF the
Orphans Court. They also presented can
dldate for Judge of the Orphans Court, but
he is the candidate on the reg
ular Democratic ticket. The Re-
publicans are awarded the Sheriff, Dis
trict Attorney and one judge of the Orphans
Court. The third judicial candidate is TO
be named by the local labor organizations.
The Republicans claimed the two Offices
possessing the most political power, outside
the mayoralty, and in addition will be as.
sured of Independent support for number oi
Councilmanic candidates. II a mongrel
movement Of this character is allowed tc
succeed in Baltimore, VIC greatly mistake
the temper and feeling OF the Democratic
people Of that city.

CONNECTICUT WITNESSED n revival Of the
old "Blue Laws" yesterday, when twenty
residents Of New Haven were arrested for
gathering nuts along the roadside near that
city. They were arrested by two farmers,
who imprisoned them in their barnyard and
kept them there all day, in drizzIing rain.
Of the prisoners six were women, and one of
the latter had young babe in her arms.
The law under which these strict Puritans
acted is as follows:
Every person who shall travel or do any
secular business or labor, except works OF
necessity or mercy, or keep open any shop,
or warehouse or manufacturing or mechani-
cal establishment, or expose any property
for sale, or engage in any sport or recreation
on Sunday, between sunrise and sunset
shall be fined not more than $400 nor lest
than ST.
The wonder is not so much that thes
straight-laced old Yankees should have at
tempted to enforce this obsolete law as tina
fourteen men should have suffered such in
dignities to be heaped upon them and tn
ladies. Such ridiculous attempt In thi
State would raise such a howl that even tn
regular officers of the law would not dar
make it,

As 70 the Assessment.

We do not see that the strained effort of
the Morning Ns,cs to make it appear that
Assessor Maxwell, of the First District, has
failed to make compile assessment, amounts
to anything at all. There has not been
single instance of neglect proved, or even
directly charged against him.
Now, If 1t is asserted on credible author
ity that there are large number Of men in
the Eighth ward entitled to be be assessed
whose names are noto Mr.. Maxwell's lists, /"
why does not the credible authority" for
the ''assertion" give their names and resi-
dences, so that Mr.. Maxwell can ascertain If
such is the tact, and explain the reason for
his failure to obtain their names. He is
positive that he called at every house in the
Eighth ward, and put down upon his books
all the names he could learn Of. In
more than one instance the
names of the male inmates
of shouse were refused him, and II these
are the parties referred to by the ''credible
authority" that 'asserts" that large num-
Der of names in the Eighth ward are not on
Mr.. MaxwelPs lists, 1t is no more than fair
to make their names public. Men foolish
enough to leave instructions at their places
of residence not to allow their names to be
recorded by an officer Of the law appointed
to attend 10 their registration for voting pur-
poses, ought to be held up to public ridicule
and contempt.
OF course, If Mr.. Maxwell chooses, be can
assess voters at his residence. The law al
lows him certain sum for each name, and
If he thinks the pay sufficient to compensate
for the trouble and nuisance of attending TO
this matter at his home, he can do so. But II
matter in which he can exercise his OWE
pleasure, and as be carefully and conscien-
tlously canvassed his entire district, he cannot
be blamed If he eompels the foolish ones
who would not be assessed to wait until he
sits At the City Hall next February.
Meanwhile we hope the "credible author
ity" will give US the names OF those patriotic
residents of the Eighth ward, who wilfully
and knowingly refused assessment when the
Assessor called at their houses.

INVESTIGATIONS made by the Philadel-
phia Press Of the situation among the fur
naces and rolling mills Of Pennsylvania,
show that, although low prices rule and the
demand for iron is less than the facilities
for It's production, yet most Of the operators
find by curtailing supplies they can stem
over the present depression without serious
losses. AS rule, the smaller works seem
to be the most affected, although there arc

No portion of a woman's attire

Partisan ingenuity has been
traced to meet this demand in
Dress Goods. Our Paris buyer

Many of them will be found
