Taken Violently Ill While On His Way
to Washington.

New YORK, Nov. 20.
Senator Henry B. Anthony of Rhode Island
is dangerously i'll at Fifth Avenue Hotel He
arrived in this city from Providence at five
yesterday afternoon, intending to remain
here day and proceed to Washington. to at
tend the opening of Congress. Upon reach
ing Fifth Avenue Hotel he walked to the
desk and after registering started toward the
elevator to ascend to his room. He had
walked but few steps when he was seen to
totter and would have fallen had not his col
ored servant run to his assistance and sup
ported him.
A second later he gave two or three gasps
and sank down in convulsions.
The hotel physician was summoned at
once and the feeble statesman was carried to
his apartments. Mr.. Anthony was then
speechless.
The physician, upon examining him, said
he was suffering from uramic convulsions,
which was caused by his enfeebled condition
He recovered consciousness subsequently
and PASSED a comparatively comfortable
night
This afternoon he was resting easy, but was
very weak.
If no further bad symptoms appear it is
thought he will recover.
LATER. Senator Anthony was in very
much improved condition tonight. His physi-
clan states that unless there is a recurrence
of the commissions his recovery is certain.

A decision has been rendered bv the
United States Supreme Court in the Brook
lyn bridge case OF A. b. Miller against
the Mayor Of the city Of New York. This
was . suit to restrain the building OF a
suspension bridge between New York
city and Brooklyn. and to have it declared
. nuisance on the ground that it affected

The East river. The court holds that mas
much - the bridge was duly authorized
both by Congress and by the State. and in
asmuch - Congress. through the Secre-
tary OF War. declared, after full and care

is built 20 - 10 be 1855 feet above mean

modify the navigation Of the river, it can
not be decided nuisance or an unlawful
structure. Tho complainant has not shown

Mrs. Abba Goold Woolson and Miss Anna
S:etson of Bangor, with i've other ladies' ana
Swiss courier, are travelling In Spain. Iney
were at Madrid on the Sd inst.
new Maine concert company 10 on the
road. It is composed of Miss Alice Main,

Minnie Rhoades, Of Plttstield accompanies; |;
Harry E. Gale, tenor soloist; and ID. y.
Bracket, basso and violin. The company
is meeting with good success.
In travelling through Illinois, lately, Gen.
Neal Dow of Portland observed with sur
prise that MANY of the farm houses and barns
were small, cheap and dilapidated. He could
not understand such a state of things IN such
fertile country, unless, indeed, whiskey,
beer and tobacco were at the bottom OF It.
But on suggesting this explanation, he was
informed that the farmers were industrious
and sober, but they were, to a large extent,
tenants, merely. on land held in great blocks
by rich proprietors, who would not sell:
ssThe farmers therefore," writes General
Dow to the Portland Press, "have no induce
ment to have good houses and barns or to
improve the land. Their interest is to skin
it, and to spend upon it as little mony as
possible. This is very bad system for the
country, but not so Oad Tor US rs IL II III
England, where it is perpetuated. Here
these great estates will be broken up and di-
vided upon the death of the present proprie-
tors. but it prevents the Improvement of the
country"

Thomas: An espe, ial tribute, beautiful but

serves a grateful mention. Minister Thomas
has today, from the balcony of his residence
on the Kings Park, hois,ed the starry banner
of America, to commemorate the death OF
Gustavus Adolphas. This Swedish-loving
American, who, during a long sojourn in
Sweden, as consul for his native land
learned to know and to appreciate our OWE
land and its people, has to-day, for the first
time, hoisted the American flag-not to cele'
brate any holiday Of his own country, but to
do honor to the memory of the greatest
among the warriors for religious liberty By
this act MIR. Thomas also honors the founder
of the first New Sweden in America-tht
Swedish colony on the Delaware, which, a:
is well known, was settled under King Gus
