Outbreak of Cholera At Madrid.

LONDON, June 9.--The authorities
at Madrid are at last compelled to ad-
init that there is an alarming amount
of cholera of the Asiatic type in that
city. The disease has now broken out
in the municipal barracks, and the
gendarmes have all been sent to the
country to be qnarantined.
There were eight suspected cases of
cholera reported at MadIid yesterday.
There was also a rumor that four deaths
had occurred from the same disease.
In the Cortes Senor Romeroy Robledo,
minister of the interior, made q state.
ment which confirmed the truth of the
report of an outbreak of cholera in Va.
lencia. He denied, however, that any
authenticated case of cholera had yet
appeared in Madrid.
The Guardia Civile have evacuated
their barracks owing to the breaking
out of of cholera. OF four cases In the
barracks three proved fatal There
were seven fresh cases of cholera in
Valencia yesterday. All persons arriv-
ing In Valencia by sea are subject to
three days obervation, and all persons
wishing to leave the city must show q
properly attested certificate of good
health. All person arriving from towns
where there are cholera cases are promp
tlysent to the lazerettOs.

cider Dranki nx at HocEessin.

In March, 1879. supplement to the
+" Act Regulating the sale of Intoxic
ting Liquors" was passed by the Leg.
islature of Delaware, of the follow ing
purport
That cider made from apples or
pears alone, and unnixed with any in
toxicating fluid or substance, shall not
be hold or taken as intox icating II.
quors within the meaning Of the act
aforesaid, or any other law of this
State"
The passage of this act was doubtless
procured in the interests of the vendors
of intox icating liquors, and probably
received little thought or attention from
the people at the time.
Proper reflection m light have taught
our legislators what the result would
be-the furnishing of q ready method
whereby our wholesome liquor laws
might be eva1ed or their application
rendered difficult or nugatOry. This
has been plainly illustrated at Hockes.
sin. in our county, for many weeks. A
party, against the advice of his friends,
procured license for selling cigars, to.
bacco. ETC., and at once gave notice that
he had good cider" on sale. The in.
evitable result soon appeared-drunk-
enness Of the worst kind, late hours,
and disorder at the house and in its
vicinity.
After suffering the disorder for some
time, several prominent citizens enter.
ed complaint under oath before Esquire
jackson, and on Monday, June 1st, the
proprietor Of the house was brought be.
fore him for hearing. In the exami.
nation that followed, the drunkenness
and disorder occurring at and near the
house was made clear, and four wit.
nesses testified to having procured and
drank cider at the premises on Sundays,
and two OF the Witnesses saw other per.
sons drinking cider there at the same
time. The testimony also proved
that what they drank produced intoxi.
cation.
Now, Mr.. Editor, herein appears tc
be . dilemma we would be glad to have
explained. Either horn Of 1t is bad
enough. We are compelled either u
impeach the wisdom OF. our Legislators,
in saying impliedly that "cider ID
not an intoxicating liquoR". ".or other
wise accept the fact that the liquor sold
at Hockessin did produce intox ication,
in evidence that 1t was mixed with
some Intoxicating "fuid or substance
and that the wise laws provided against
such sale without license, and especial
ly on Sundays, was badly transaressed
The defendant was held in recog
nizance, to appear at the next session
Of Court, when we will probably learn
which horn of the dilemma will be Ia
ken and whether or not this deception
and obscure legislative enactment viii
be allowed by our learned Judges to be
the means of debauching our young
men, and disturbing the peace and
quiet of our community. A CITIZEN.

TWO Rural Lovers In the Prize Ring

Two Rural Lovers An the Prize Ring
The vanqufshed to be ssBest Man."
INp1ANApoLIs, Ind, July IA desper-
ate prize fight occurred at Green Island, q
few miles above Evansville, 90 the Ken
lucky side of the Ohio river, yesterday
morning. Charles Harding and James
Townsend on last Wednesday signed arti-
Giles of agreement to fight to finish for the
heart and hand of Miss Sadie Corning, a
Kentucky young woman, to whom both
had been paying attentions. A party OF
twenty-five persons proceeded up the
river in boats to Evansville at an early
hour and landed at Green River Island
about daybreak The site selected was
densely wooded and proved IN every way
an admirable place for the smuggling match
A twelve-foot RUG was pitched, and the
men took positions in the ring. In the
seventh round Townsend's face began to
hear little resemblance to human coun-
tenance, and when the eighth round was
called he staggered up from his corner un-
steadily and struck blindly and wildly. In
the entire round he failed to reach Hard
ing, who, however, forced the fighting, and
got in a quick, hard blow on Townsend's
neck, telling him like an OK and ending the
fight. 1t was fully half an hour before the
van quished man could be taken from the
ground. Both men went to their farms
with their friends after the fight and were
each given surgical attention. Harding
saws that as soon as he can see out of his
right eve he will claim his bride, and
thinks Townsend will consent to be his
best man.

Indians Threatening Trouble.

WICHITA, Kan, July 11.-Mr- Halloweil,
one of the four agency farmers employed
by the Government to teach agriculture to
the Cheyennes, Arapahoes. and Comanche
Indians, arrived in this city yesterday d.
rect from Fort Reno. Mr.. Hallowell, being
interviewed, says he considers trouble in
eyltable. The Bent brothers, half-breed
Cheyennes, and sons of old Colonel Bent,
say the Indians expect an effort to be made
by the Government to disarm them, in
which event they will sell their lives as
dearly as possibly. The Indians are in
want of nothing in the way of ammunition.
Not only the Eents, but the head Indians
are selling off their ponies. Wolf Robe,
the chief of the Dog soldiers, has aban-
doned his crop and taken all his movable
property away. In coming up to the State
line, Mr.. Hallowell CHANGED upon 300 Chey-
enne ponies being herded for an emer-
gency. The young men who had taken to
farming have, under the influence of their
chief, also abandoned their fields.

"Did it pay you to advertise in the TAT

owner, by a TATTLER man, yesterday.
s.Why. most undoubtedly it did" replied
the banker "and the advertisement, as it
appeared in the TATTLER, brought me bet
ter results than any other form of adver-
Using could devise. The streets outside
my Office on the day of sale was SO crowded
with some of the most noted men of the
city-monied men--that the horse cars
were blocked several times during the sale,
which was successful one. Mr.. Warren,
the auctioneer, sold all the houses offered
on our plans, and some of the lots, although
/ did not expect to sell any of the lots at
that time" "What was your experience
