DR.. FISHBLAT.

DR.. FISHBLAT.
Nearly twelve years ago DR.. Edward
Fishblatt, editor of the New York
Medical and Surgical Journal,
physician-in-chief of the Cedar Rap
ids and GAINESVILLE Surgical Institutes,
and later, professor at Atlanta, Ca,
Medical College, and physician and
surgeon of more than local reputa-
ton, added Grand Rapids to the list
of cities and towns to which he was
regularly called by large practice.
Since then he has been coming at
regular intervals, and now a large
practice renders it impossible for him
to leave Grand Rapids out of his
course. Some of the remarkable cures
he has been performing from time to
time have been mentioned in these
columns. During the past two
months, since he was here last, he has
performed so many cures that it has
become impossible to note them all.

rested on his oars for that day.
On Friday he worked couple of more

Kennedy II Chittenden and he presented an
order on Michaud Bros. for So so worth of
sacks, and also on the firm of Colbert, Hill &,
Co., of Siblcy street, for 1000 sacks.
Whether he worked the racket any farther is
not known, his business enterprise being un-
expectedly interrupted Us stated. Yesterday
afternoon one of the firm of Colbert, Hill Il
Co. espied him on Seventh street and under
took to arrest him. He broke away, when
chase was given, and, after running several
blocks, he was captured in front of fire de-
partment headquarters and turned over to

gates abou: $50 and he will have hearing

THE CHALLENGE.
iRcspectfully Inscribed to Frances Murphy
BY L. P. SEWARD.

BY L.. p. SEWARD.
They decked with roses q festal hall.
Where wassail and wit held carnival;
All the wines of the vintage were on the board,
All the fruits that tropic suns had stored,
And roses blushed redder, and lilies paled white
As the jewellers orgies swept into the night.
Then up sprang youth with fiery eye,
Fill fill Your heakers and lift them high
They filed their bright goblets to the brim,
TIL the liquid ruoies kissed the rim,
And sprang 10 their feet with one accord
To cheer the pledge that their host had scored;
Drink drink! to my sovereign lady, all,
The fairest lady of hearth or ;.all
Their glasses clnk, AZ the wine they quaff,
That poisoned nectar, with Jest and laugh.
But one glass untasted remained alone,
And the owner sits as IL carved in stone.
The host looks round with proud disdain,
What miscreant spurns my laGy's name:'
Her eyes have The falcon piercing glance,
Her form Is the brightest in may dance,
Her hand Is the wnitest on harp or late,
When she sings the nightingale grows mute;
Who dares refuse to drink 10 one
All lips declare paragon:
~ dare and to his feet he sprang,
His young voice like clarion rang;
81 dare refuse 10 drink to her,
No matter Uh0 her worshipper,
Who frowns not on the fes:al board
Where the red W9rderOUS wine is poured
That stirs young blood TO fever-heat
And makes mad pulses faster beat;
l own allegiance to one
Far lovlier than your paragon,
wear Ter coiors, and in vain
fe shall present rivals claim
she shall before all rivals stand
The sweetest lady in the land,
And she has said lips hot 1Cih tUiRe
Shall neUer touch these lips of mine.
"Her name, - they cry aloud, ''her name,
Ihat we may put your toast TO shame
His bold young eyes grew strangely sweet,
mot here that name would repeat
Each hand crept to its sword hilt then,
For bibulous youths are martial men,
And louder still the challenge came,
Her name, yOgr peerless lady's name:"
His bearded lips wreathed in a smile,
And tenderly he said the while,
"-HY nOfHsr.i As these words he spoke
Wild cheers the breathless silence broke,
And close, and closer still they press,
Each heart aglow in every breast,
And every hand extended wrung
The loyal hand of loving son.

THE GOLDEN DAYS DEPARTED.

o voices still beneath the churchyard sod,
Bright eyes that glistened from behind long
lashes,
Warm beauty early given back to God,
Red lips that now are ashes.
All, so it is all that hath ever been
Experienced by the spirit is immortal;
Each hope and JOY and grief is hid within
The memory's sacred portal.
And yet the soft glow Of the midnight hour
A strain of haunting music sweet and olden,
A dream, bird, bee, a leaf, flower.
A sunset rich and golden
Can fling that portal open; and beyond
Appears the record of each earlier feeling;
All hopes, all joys, all fears, all musings fond,
In infinite revealing,
Till all the present passes from the sight
Its cares and woes that make us weary hearted.
And leaves us basking in the holy light

Will not miss the gracious aim;
So to-day and all thy days

Little things;
All we cannot understand,

thousand rooms, with Accommodations for
about twice that number of people. They
are built with special view to safety, con-
venience and healthfulness, and are six
stories in height. Each story is supplied
with the newly-invented dust-shoots, which
facilitates the removal of dust with absence
of smell or inconvenience. Each room has
its fireplace and every door throughout the
building fanlight which can be opened or
