Battle With a BloOdh ound Unarmsd
 and sIngle-Handed a Man Conqusrs 8
 FerOcious Siberian Dog,
 BOSTON, June 29.-About four o'clock yes> terday morning, as Mir. E. W. Jackson, of Medford, bookkesper, was on his way from Medford to Maiden to catch the early horse car for Boston, and while passing the resi- dence of George K. Goulden, on Pleasant street, he was attacked by large Siberian bloodhound, belonging to Mir. Goulding, in most savage manner. The animal jumped for his throat, but instead caught hold of his wrist, which was put up to ward of the at tack. Then most desperate struggle en- sued between the man and beast. The latter tore the flesh in several places from Mr. Jackson's arms, whose first efforts were di- rected to keeping the ferocious animal from his throat. The struggle lasted for consid- erable length of time, during which the cries of MT. Jackson for help could be heard half milo away; but unfortunately there was no one abroad in the vicinity at that es1fy hour, and they had to continue the stE. :si3 for life or death without interfer- enes. The dog getting vise-like grasp on Jackson's wrist, crunched and broke the bones between his teeth; in doing so, how ever, 1t gave it's human antagonist the much desired opportunity of grasping the vicious animal by the throat. Then, with the un- natural strength in one arm of man whose life was at stake, Mir. Jackson succeeded in choking the beast to death. He was shortly after aided to his home by Officer O'Flynn, of Maiden, and his wounds were dressed. The dog had generally been kept chained, bat he broke away yesterday morning or was left un- fastened Friday night. It is said the dog had made attacks on people prior to this and the neighbors are very glad it is dead. Tariff Reform The manufaeturers
 Leagues Petition to the Democratic
 Convention.
 BOSTON, June 29.-A petition of the Manu- lecturers Tariff Reform league to the Demo- cratic national convention which bears the signatures of 15O manufacturers and ner chants is being circulated. The pstition asks that the convention will ''adopt in their plat form" the resolutions passed at a recent meeting of manufacturers and merchants in New York ''to give relief to the industries of the country" The resolutions referr cd to are as follows:
 Flrst-The abolition of all duties on raw materials in order that we may compete in home and foreign markets with other manu- featuring nations, not one of which taxes raw materials.
 Second-The adjustment of the tariff SO that manufactures approaching nearest the crude state will pay the lower rate and manu- factures that have further advanced, requir- ing more skill and labor, will pay the higher rate of duties.
 Accompanying the petition is a memorial setting forth the reasons why raw materials ought to be free of duty and stating that the manufacturers are now in 8 position where they must command the markets of the world. Free raw materials it says, ''give cheap subsidiary materials to all manufac- turers and will open the worlds trade to them D

Indians Dying From Starvatton-A Great
 Death Rate Among the Children.
 HELENA, June 29 Major Allen, the Pie gan Indian agent in Northern Montana, reports that the Piegans are dying fast from the scant food supply. The agency carpen- ter has furnished thirty burial boxes in tae last month, but it is believed the deaths were fully thrice that number as the Indians have great dislike to burying the dead, prefer ring the old custom of placing the bodies on trees or in stone piles on high hills. Hence officers are not required for more than about 8 third of those that die. The death rate is greatest among the children from five to twelve yeas old. The supplies will be ex- hausted entirely in another week and three hundred thousand Indians on the reservation will be left to starve or subsist on the cattle of the settlers. Trouble is feared.

whatto Wear in Trav.Itue,

The midsummer temperature of last week made many of New York's fashion votaries sigh for the country, and made all of them think of the imp ortance of hurrying their preparations for travelling. In the styles of travelling dresses it is noticeable that the most fashionable modistes are using heavy mo- hair and alpacas. These come in grey, ecru and tan brown shades, and are made up in the severe tailor styles that are in favor with ladies who like English fashions Such dress es are merely stitched on the edges, or are bordered with many rows of mohair braid but for these who prefer more dressy cos tunes, velvet borders are placed around the skirts, and there are wide bands of velvet up each side that are disclosed by the open sides of the deep apron drapery; there is also 8 vest, collar and cuffs of the velvet. Clear gray mohair with black velvet bands is a most stylish choice for g spring suit for travelling, walking, and for any use that the tailor suits have hitherto been put to. Ecru and tan mohair dresses have dark golden brown or maroon velvet trimming. Some- times silver braid is placed in rows on the black velvet vest and border of gray alpaca dresses, and gilt braid is used in the same way on the brown costumes, or else the skirt IS laid in side plaits, each which is edged with row of braid that merely peeps from be- meath the side of the lengthwise plait. These mohalr fabrlcks are cool for summer jour neys and, moreover, they have smooth sur face that does not retain the dust and soil of travel Louisine silks in pepper and salt pattern, in undefned checks and in narrow stripes are also pleasant to the touch, durable and cool, and in the quiet combinations of blue and dull red, scru with brown, and other cheviot colorings are both useful and pretty for travelling suits The entire dress is made of thes ae piece of goods, and its tasteful trimming is the velvet collar and cuffs that are used this season in two-thirds of the dresses made.
 Small bonnets and round hats of compact shape are chosen to match the dress of the long wrap used for travelling. The small bonnets of dark straw have narrow crown, somewhat long and round like those of Eng fish turbans, and the rolled cornet brim is covered by velvet put on in irregular puff, and clustered in round, rosette like piece on the left side, in which may be stuck an aigTette, or else two ouilis of dark colors; or perhaps two long gilt or silver spikes or pins. A small bow of velvet under the chin takes the place of strings. The most popular round hats have high crowns that may be either square or tapering, with narrow brim carled alike on each side, and much narrow CT behind, or else it may be slightly widened on one side, and rolled up to show the vel vet facing. The trimming Is bias band of velvet folded narrowly around the crown, and bunch of three or four ostrich tips covered to ward the front of the brim and placed just in front of the crown. Turbans of large English shape, and velvet trimmings, are worn by young ladies.

Pauper LabOr-A Bill to XIII Off Its Inl-
 D0rtalioR


 WASHINGTON, June 29. - Senator Blair, from the Committee on Education and Labor, has reported to the Senate favorably, and without amendment, the bill recently passed by the House to prohibit the importation and migration Of foreigners and aliens under con tract or agreement to perform labor in the United States. The report says that, although there are certain features of the bill which might well be changed and modified, it is re- ported without amendment in order that it may not fail of passage during the present session. Among the amenaments which the committee say they would have especially recommended is one providing for the sub stitution of the words manual labor or man ual service'' for the expression labor and service" This amendment, the report says, would accomplish the purposes of the bill, and also remove objections, which sharp and unfriendly criticism may urge against the proposed legislation, but as the committee are of the opinion that the words will be con strued to mean virtually this, they made TO changes.
 The report of Mir. Foran, of the House committee, is submitted as an argument in favor of the adoption of the bill and also the testimony taken by the committee on the subject.
