MAJOR BEN. PERLEY POoRE tells the
following story: Stephen A. Douglas
was very demonstrative in his profess
sions of regard. One day-so the story
goes-he sat down on Beverly fuckers
knee, put his arm around the Virginian's
neck, and exclaimed in his impulsive
way: "Bev., old boy, love you" "Dou-
glas, says Tucker, "will you always
love me?" "Yes," says Douglas, 81 will. "
But" persisted Tucker, "will you love
me when you get to be President?" "If
don't, may be banked" says Dou-
CLOS. "What do you want me to dc for
you? "Well," says Tucker, "when you
get to be President, all l want you to do
for me is to pick some public place and
put your arm around my neck, just as
you are doing now, and call me Bev."

THE bonanza Senators have queer ad-
ventures with their divorces. Mrs.
Tabor of Colorado, got a million or two
alImony, and is said to be waiting until
her husband tires of his Oshkosh widow
and will then welcome him back to the
old home. Mrs. Senator Fair Of Nevada,
is even better provided for and has
been allowed S4,25O,0O0 in money and
bonds, the family residence in San Fran
cisco, and the custody of the three mi
nor children. This whole business, di-
vorce and allowance, was concluded at a
private seance of California judge in
less than an hour. 1t was the biggest
operation. done in the quickest time, on
record. Fair has few millions, his
Senatorship, and his eldest son, to begin
single life on.-(Pitts. Post.

Worthy Of Colonel SeIIers-A Scheme to
 Shield a Whole City From Ruin.
 RIO JANE1Ro, Oct 12.-Two German me- chanical engineers have sent to the munici- pality of Buenos Ayres the following propos- al to cover the oity with an umbrella:
 'sMr. Intendent-Aware of the spirit of progress of the Intendent of the municipality of Baenos Ayres, we propose to construct what will undoubtedly be 8 convenience-an umbrella of immense size, to cover this hon. orable capital. with the object of protecting it during rain-an umbrella of every profit to it and that will make this city the most re- markable in the universe. The bsrse or foot of the umbrella will be placed in the Plaza de Lorea and thence it will extend eastward to the pier, westward to Almagro, northward to Palermo and southward to the Plaza Consti- tuition. The foot or base of the said umbrel- la will be 670 feet in diameter and have the height of 1 ,500 feet; the ribs will be of cast iron and thirty-one inches in circumference and be placed eight feet apart. It will hoist upon the system of Harsihentinsburc. The lining will be made of wrought iron one and one-half inches thick, of the best maks-that is, of the iron made by Herr Artimboterskin, of Prussia. When hoisted the umbrella will be over mile and half wide and around 1t will be canal communicating with the River Plate, to carry away the water that might in- undate the city"
 The proponents, Messrs. W. Bourahofer and John Fluckigon, offer to do the work for $5, 75O, GOO and to hand it over ready within thirty months.

Horrible DIscovery-A Grave Opened
 and the DIggers Find the Body of a
 Young Lady who was Buried Alive.
 STEUBENvILLE, Nov. 4.-Recently the Cath olic burial ground was abandoned, now ground being purchased and interments made in the latter. Yesterday Fathers Hartmedy and Hartley, the pastors of the church here, with others went to the old cemetery for the purpose of removing the body of Father Duffy, which had been buried eighteen years. One of the party had been pail bearer of the deceased. He knew the right grave and said the remains were in metallic casket. When the grave was opened 8 metallic casket rusty with age was found, but when opened the remains brought te view were not those of a male person but of 8 young lady. The body was not identified by any one present, but was shown to be in remarkable state of preservation although no doubt Is entertain ed of it's having been there for years The eyes of the corpse were open and were of 8 bluish color while the hair was light brown and curly. The shroud exhibited evidences of having been torn in shreds, but the most remarkable discovery was the position of the right arm of the body, which instead of lying folded across the breast or falling at the side was drawn around the neck, the palm nearly touching. The conclusion formed by those present was that the young lady was buried alive, having been in trance at the time of her interment. No one present knew who she was Father Hartmedy says he knows nothing of the horrible discovery which was so freely talked about on the streets. The matter creates great excitement.

 Gentlemen-In August, 1875, I had par alytic stroke which affected the right side of my body. could not speak for eight days It was six weeks before could walk with the aid of cane. For five and one-half years was out of business. In June, 1881, met a man who had suffered from partial paralysis and rheumatism for eighteen years. He had not been able to walk more than a quarter of a mile at 8 time. He had been wearing Wilsonis for fifty-four days and was then able to walk three miles as well as most men. He advised me to see Prof. H. Smith, who had also been cured of paralysis by wearing Wilsonia. Satisfied that it was worth the experiment purchased suit of Wilsonia on the 25th of June. In three months could walk without a cane and have $50, 900 and be as I was year ago.
 One merchant in this city who, by my rec ommendation, has worn a suit of Wilsonia for eight weeks, is in better health than for ten years past. also know of case of Ca- tarrh and Rheumatism cured by wearing the Wilsonia. Yours gratefully, F. c. L.
 There are scores in our city and in the country who have been equally benefited by ''Wilsonia," whose testimonials we have failed to receive, but enough have been ob- tained the past three years to establish the fact that g new Broadway in the realm of Science has been demon strsted. Magnetism and Electric ity converted into powerful agents for curing disease They have come to the front.

murderous work by rramps.

PITTsBURa, Nov 4.-Early this morning g desperate and bloody affray which may end in murder occurred in the tramp department of the 'tHome Hotel' on Duquesne way. The trouble arose in a quarrel between four tramps for the possession of a bunk. When two of the employees at the hotel named Allen and Godfrey tried to restore order they were attacked by three of the villainous crew, who assaulted them with chairs and pieces of board at first and then one of them drew 8 knife and slashed around in murderous way. Godfrey received two severe cuts in the thigh and another in his forehead, but is not dangerously injured Allen fared much worse. as the blade of the knife was driven into the small of his back and penetrated his right lung, inficting a wound of very serious character. Dr. Hamilton after examining Aliens wounds said he hoped to have him in good shape in week, but would give no positive assurance of his recovery. The tramps claim to have come from Philadelphia. They were all locked up in the central station.

The Repub- lTcans hope that the Democratic dissensions will give them three State senators and some of them express confidence of the election of Hess as register in consequence of the with drawal of the Democratic votes from Reilly by O'Brien's candidacy.

Ill Business Timber. <"

In advertising our business we try to be philosophical, but amidst all our attempted philos 3phy we aim to be discreet and so ren- der it unnecessary to be mysterious about anything. Each day we devote to the object and that object is to accomplish something more than was recorded the preceding day, and when the days work is done we find that we have not been disappointed. Doubtless it is due to the fact that we keep the BEST READY MADE CLOTHING fer old and prices (being quite reasonable) must have something to do with our very fattering trade. It is widely known that OAK HALL Is THE representative store of New Haven. Not that we have done all to make it so, but a large share of credit Is due to all those who have given us an opportunity to supply them from our general assortment, or by kindly waiting for us to send to New York for sample garments for approval. In either case our efforts have been appreciated and rewarded. Securing patronage of such a character and of such magnitude stimulates | our desire to increase the useful and honorable work of selling Mems and Boys First -class Clothing at Moderate Prices
