The man who enters politics may as
well at the outset bid goodbye to
contentment and peace of mind. There
are SO many petty jealous;es and re-
venges in the life OF politician that
there is no time or room for quiet
peaceful enjoyment. The life and en-
ergies of the politician is completely
absorbed in "gettlng even" with his
opponents and seeing that his friends
do not get ahead of him. There is
neither. love nor confidence among
politicians. They are only bound to-

A Domestic Difficulty.

John T. Huber, successful and
wealthy merchant of this city, was sued
eight months ago for desertion by his wife,
Catherine S. Huber, who, in her complaint,
charged her husband with maintaining GRIM
inal relations with young and beautiful
widow who was well known in large social
circle. Mr.. Huber contested the suit, and,
in the examination before master appoint
ed by the court, the maid and other servants
employed by the widow were called to the
stand and gave strong evidence against their
mistress. Society shuts its doors against
her, but pending the report of the master
Mr.. Huber, whose resentment against bis
wife had become very bitter, filed plea of
divorce from her alleging that when he mar
ried her she was already the lawful wife of
Charles gunner, Californian. by whom she
was deserved fifteen years ago. Mr.. Huber's-
motive in pressing the suit against his wife
is, she says, his desire to marry the widow
whose name has been associated with his.
Both families are wealthy.

Terror Among the People of Toulon Over

The cholera outbreak produces effects

almost disgusting. Out of 60, 900 taxpayers
40, 600 have fed, as many as 6, 900 going In q
single day. Terror has even extended to
the marines, for when the admiral allowed
them to leave on good cause shown, every
marine produced letter with such cause.
Labor Is suspended; commercial acceptance
cannot be paid; numerous failures occur
daily, and the supply of provisions almost
stopped, labOring people having no money
to buy. ALI this tends enormously to in
crease the plague. Refugees usually occupy
houses in the suburbs, utterly unfit for
habitation, by large masses ofpeople. Laun-
dresses have refused to wash the linen of
hospital patients. The work is done by
prisoners with promises of pardon. Some
of the families in their flight left their valu-
ables behind, and one of the difficulties Of
the civic authorities Is to keep off thieves.

Shot in q Saloon.

In Germantown, Pa. John S. Sutton, a
building contractor, entered the saloon of
Joseph E. Songster on Miller street about
1 O'Clock in the morning. A discussion over
who is a d. mocrat, made an insulting re.
mark about Blaine, and said that Cleveland
or any other democrat could beat him.
Sutton cautioned him facetiously against
talking that way in this Blaine stronghold,
and Songster retorted that he would Fsshoot
a hole through Blaine man any day. -
Without provocation the saloonkeepers went
behind the bar, obtained revolver of large
calibre and pointing it at Sutton's head de-
liberately fired, the ball entering the brain
about two inches above the right ear. The
wounded man fell to the floor and was
taken as quickly as possible to the German
town hospital, where he died. His assail-
ant is under arrest. Sutton is man of
some prominence in political circles and
leaves a large family.

A MEXICAN BULL FIGHT.
The First Exhibition of the Kind on
American Soil.

The first Mexican bull fight on Amer
lean soil occurred at Dodge City, Kansas, q
few days ago. A large number of visitors
arrived on trains from the east and west and
800 cowboys were present. The fight took
place at the fair ground in an area 100 feet
in diameter, enclosed by fence eight feet
high and provided with eight escapes and
two ladders. There were five bull fighters
and four animals. The first bull usbered
into the ring made only a fair fight, furnish
ing over half an hours amusement. The
Sc cond was too quiet and, showing no
spirit, was Withdrawn. The third pranced
into the ring, throwing up clouds of dust.
After being angered by several spear
thrusts he made matters very lively and
after being exhausted was lassoed and
dragged from the ring. The fourth proved
failure and the crowd demanded the first
bull, which was returned to the ring.
After brisk fight and much charging the
picador gave him fatal thrust with his
lance and he fell dead. One of the mata-
doris was severely injured about the ribs in
the final encounter and may not recover.
The crowd was greatly excited during the
exhibition. There were from 8, 900 to 4, 200.
