The Crosby
 Invalid
 Bedstead

Is pronounced by all who have used it one of the best inventions ever presented to the public. It consists of two parts-a frame, not unlike common bedstead having soft, flexible bands extending from side to side on which the patient rests with ease and con- fort. These bands are adjustable and are readily removed. The other part is sort of movable car or trundle bed frame on which the bed is made and is so arranged as to
 be raised or lowered by crank, being eleva- ted to the bands and supporting the patient,
 or depressed and removed as the occasion may require. Simple in construction, never getting out of order with fair usage, giving
 comfort to patients prostrated by exhaustion resulting from disease or broken limbs, ad-
 hitting of changing from one bed to another
 without discomfort permits a change of
 bed clothes, taking out and cooling or airing the mattress, and any service on the part of
 the nurse without pain or even discomfort to | the patient. These facts make it beneficial
 in cases of extreme weakness; and in every kind of disease which requires the patient to
 maintain quiet state this bed will be found | invaluable. In cases of acute rheumatism or l rheumatic fever nothing else will serve as 8 | substitute. It also tends to prevent and cure | fever sores.
 This Bedstead was used in our Army Hos- pitfalls during the latter part of the war and
 thoroughly tested by many Surgeons, and
 commended by an Examining Board of which
 James B. CuyIer, Medical Inspector U. s. A.,
 was president.
 From the many Invalid Bedsteads sent to the White House for the late President Gar | fields use this was the only one made use of
 during the last weeks of his life.

A FIGHT WITH KNIVES.
Two Colored Women Contend in Mortal
Combat, for the Affection of One Man.

NEW YORK, July pa desperate duel
with knives was fought yesterday morning
before daylight in cabin on Crow Hill,
Brooklyn, called the Buffalo Inn, between
two colored amazons, known as Annie
Mitchell and Lizzie Stout. The cause
OF the duel was colored man named
Washington Jones, toward whom both
women entertained the warmest affection.
They drank freely at the bar, and while a
song and drunken chorus was in full blast
into the dive walked Washington Jones.
Both women made rush for him, but the
Mitchell woman reached him first and drew
knife as she saw her rival approaching.
Her eyes flashed fire - she raised the knife
in the air and shouted: "You pae-face
niger, don't you come nigh dis
yer man, cause he's mine. II you
does Is gwine ter cut you TO- shu' ;"
Jones ain I no man O. yourn, +" cried the
mulatto woman. Hes done been mine
10 mo dan year past and spec dat amt
gwine 10 ter give him up TO SIGH ugly old
squaw rs you is" Here you, gals, 4"
put in Jones, "You Jest stop dis yer muss
right now. Spec want fur to git cut my
sef''' and he shook the Mitchell wo..an
from his shoulder.
''YoU's GOT TO FIGHT ME- NOW,
suah, - screamed the mulatto. "I's ready
fur yer, honey" was the reply. In mo-
ment space was cleared in tho dimly-
lighted bar-room, and the fight began.
Both wo men rushed at each other with
drawn knives and slasned away at each
other most furiously. Soon they were
bleeding freely, and their screams and
yeIls as they fought over the chairs and
floor could be heard blocks away.
After awhile the Stout woman threw her
knife away and used her fists. She pound
ed the face OF her antagonist to almost q
pulp, but received a frightful cut In her
left hand. just as the fight was at It's
height RoundsmaL Bedell, OF the Twelfth
Precinct, rushed into the saloon with a re-
yolyer in bis hand and separated the COM
batants. The Mitchell woman threatened
to kill any one who came near her, and so
the officer took her into custody. Both wo.
men were frighttully cut and mangled.
They were arrsgned In the Third District
Police court yesterday and Lizzie Stout
preferred a charge against the other wo.
man. The examination was continued I'M
til next week. Washington Jones re-
lsaIned apassiye spectator OF the fight from
the beginning to the end and then retired
from the neighbOrhOod.

In this kind OF business There was no
purse up for the race, and the men accepted
the gate money, minus the expense as their
reward. Hanlan acted as treasurer In the
ticket office on the day of the race, and two
OF his friends sold the tickets.
The citizens here are universally OF the
opinion that the race on Thursday, AZ q
