Cure for Biiiousness.

From the Medical News.
 The way to get the better of the bilious system without blue pills or quinine is to take the juice Of one, two or three lemons, as appe- tite craves, in as much water as make 1t pleasant to drink without sugar, before going to bed. In the morning, on rising, at least half an hour before breakfast, take the juice of one lemon in a goblet of water. This will clear the sys- tem of humor and bile with eff ciency, without any of the weak ening effects of calomel. People should not irrltate the stomach by eating lemons clear; the pow erful acid of the juice. which IS always most corrosive, invariably produces inflammation after a while, but properly diluted, so that it does not burn or draw the throat, 1t does its medical work without harm, and, when the stomach Is clear of food, has abundant opportunity to work over the system thoroughly

Sensible Words.

We clip the following express ions from an interview between Senator Beck, of Kentucky, and a Lexington press reporter:
 People waste a good deal of sympathy on the Indian because he has been mistreated. Grant that he has; the poor settlers upon whom he makes his murderous attacks have not mistreated him. The frontier farmer or ranchman is not responsible for the wrongs done by the Government in the past fifty years. If the Govern ment, with all the power it has at hand, allows another single sat- tier to be killed 1t will be national disgrace.
 If the Indians leave the reser- vations, turn the troops loose on 'em; let the states send the mill tia; offer reward of $500 for each scalp, and let the cowboys at lem. I wouldn't give twelve white fam lilies on the frontier for all the h. dians Tn the country"

Fight With sr,ugg.ers.

From the Nogales Frontier.
 On W Wednesday last a band of smugglers crossed the line into Sonora, just outside the village limits. The Mexican custom off clals were apprised of the matter and atonce started a company of mounted guards after them. They overlook them about three miles south of here, and a running fight ensued. The contrabandistas, seeing they we're about to be cap tured, cut their sacks from their animals and made good their es- cape into the mountains. Tho goods were scattered over the val ley, but the guards gathered them up and returned with the spells to the custom house. It is thought that one or two of the smugglers were wounded.

A Tenderfoot Cowboys Experl-
 GEsCe,

SIaCt.
 True it is said that the cowboy
 was was not always thus, but the
 day of the 'crop-eared cayote from Poison Creek" is over in this lat
 itude; his glory has departed for
 ever. The real article of cowboy
 knows this, and doesn't attempt
 any of the old time pleasantries;
 but occasionally one of the tender
 foot variety, whose massive brain is stored with tales of border life
 as found in nickel novels, attemps to revive the custom of the good old days-but he never repeats the experiment.. Only the other day we had case of this kind. A young Philadelphian, belonging to good family, and a gentleman when sober, probably, who was un- dergoing his first experiment. as a cowboy, came into town to show off his leather 'schapps'' and white hat. He held a glass under his nose a few times, and then started out to pave the street with human sculls. He soon found the contract was a big one. He made ''gun play" at a Hummer for a St. Louis cigar house, who knocked him down and took the weapon away from him and spanked the bosom of his pantaloons with it. Then he braced up and tried to kill the travelling man with his bare knuckles, but was knocked out and hung over the piazza banister like a wet towel inside of thirteen seconds. He revived after a while and started after more souls. He struck at railroad man who laughed at him, and the twister of brake wheels un- corked his clarat-jug and laid him senseless upon mother earth. Friends carried him of the bloody field, and the express train took him east that night.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

The ex-Empress Eugenie has retired to Marlborough, where she is erecting on the grounds of her residence a superb mausoleum for Napoleon IT., the Prince Imper- ial, and herself. She lives in the same gloomy state which was kept up at Chiselhurst. She occupies her days in reading, writing her memories, receiving such accred- tied visitors as may present them selves, and paying occasional visits to the tomb. She prefers walking to driving, and is always followed by dog. She carries a cane, and one observer thinks that she uses 1t with as much legal grace as though 1t were q sceptre. She bears the weight of years and sorrow with dignity, save for one personal deta1l-the employment of cosmetics. With the native coquetry of a Spaniard who be- came Parisienne, Eugenie can- not submit to ths ravagss of time on a complexion once wholly ad mirable, and her countenance is a mask, exquisitly done, but little adapted to the garish light of day. and incongruous with her gray hair.

A New Orleans special says: AS
sistant United States Treasurer Herwig
received to-day telegram from the
Mississippi quarantine station as fol
lows:
Cannot come to city. Can you
send 100 tons Of silver:
FRANK WILDEs.
Commander United steamship Yam
tic"
This inquiry was a considerable sur
prise to Mr.. Herwig, and he was in
clined to think at first sight that the
dispatch was not genuine, but intended
as a joke. Upon investigation he found
that such telegram had been really re-
ceived at the Office here, and therefore
sent reply, which was as follows:
To Frank Wildes, Commander
United States Steamship Ydntic
81 have received no instructions
from the Department. Inquire at the
Mint. u. A. HBRwIG,
Assistant Treasurer United States. 4"
1t is tolerably well known that the
Yantic and Swatars were ordered TO
this port to receive and remove to WASH
ington the surplus silver belonging to
the Government. The former vessel
arrived at Quarantine week or so ago
and concluded to remain there in pre-
ference to undergoing disinfection, ac-
cording to rule. The Swatara left New
York about eight days ago, but has not
arrived. One hundred tons Of silver,
according to Mr.. Herwig's estimate,
would amount to about s3S, 000, 900,
which is considerably more than is con-
tanned in the vaults Of the Sub Treasury
or ihe Mint.

wtcAcdness of u Pennsylvania Town.

a Huntingdon Penn special says:
Sheriff George VI. McAlcoy yesterday
issued his Official proclamation an
nouncing three weeks Of court to be
held at the ensuing term. Hunting lon
county was formerly one Of the most
peaceful counties Of the State. and one
week usually suiiiced to dispose Of all
its legal business. Within the past
year, however, its peaceful inhabitants
have become alarmed at the phenome-
nal amount Of law-breaking done within
the county limits. Like a violent
epidemic, crime seems here to have be-
cone the order Of the day. Never in
the history Of the county since its or
ganzation has there been so much It'll
cation before the courts as will be
brought at the approaching September
term. Seventy-fve criminal cases and
thir;y-fiye civil suits have been placed
on the trial list. The three weeks al
lotted for the disposition Of these cases
are found to be altogether insufficient,
and Judge John W. SimOntOD, Of llar-
risburg, has been secured to assist
Judge A. o. Furst. An unusually
large list Of jurors has been drawn and
an additional stenographer employed.
The citizens Of the county will see the
novel spectacle Of two county courts
proceeding at the same time in
different rooms. Last January the
noted murder case Of Curtin McClain,
in which all the persons involved were
from this county, was tried on the bor-
der county of Mitiiin. Last February
an atrocious case of criminal assault was
tried here. In April John Gardner was
tried for the murder of his aged father
/ in-law, George Warfield. In Septem-
Der another trial for murder and three
for criminal assault will be held, in adj
dition to the long list of other cases.
The little jail here, built long ago when
crime was exceptional in this locality,
recently had to be repaired, and is now
guarded by a strong force Of watch
men to prevent the escape of the i'm
portant prisoners now confined in it.
The principal prisoners are:
John Laporte, for murder Of his
friend, James Irwin.
David Fulton, for assault on Mrs.
Peters.
Charles Houser, for repeated horse
stealing and Undertaking.
Fatty" Numbering and George
Mack. for assault OF Bertha Morrison.
John Comfy and Frank Lamp, for
car-robbery.
Ferdinand Kasefang, f. II. Fohrer.
Patrick Mcneil, and James Thompson,
moonshiners.
A host Of other criminals, charged
with robbery, burglary, and assault,
are out on bail. John Laporte, who
will be tried for the murder Of his
friend, James Irwin. at Warrorsmark
last May, is the son Of Judge
John Laporte, who refused to harbor
him at his house, and surrendered him
to the authorizes. The Judge cannot,
Of course, participate in the trial of his
son, but vii sit in the other court
during the trial.

4 CRASH ON A STEA MER.
Serious Accident to the Ticonderoga Oh Lake
George.

George.
A lake George special says: A Sc
rious accident occurred to the steamer
Ticonderoga, Of the Champlain Trans
portation Company's Line, this morn
ing, while on her northward trip from
Caldwell to Baldwin. The steamer left
Caldwell with about 100 passengers on
board, a considerable number Of
whom were women and children.
She had made her usual landing at
Kaatskill bay, and was proceeding across
the lake to the Marion House, on the
west side, when, at point nearly oppo-
site the end Of Long Island, terrific
crash was heard, quickly followed by
more violent shock, and portion Of ths
massive walking-beam came crashing
through the decks and cabins. smash
ing the cylindcr-head, demoliShing the
main staircase, and splintering every
thing in its course.
In a moment the boat was envelopc1
in cloud of binding steam from the
broken cylinder, and a scene of terri
BILE confusion eDsued. Women and
children screamed, and several tainted
and were borne out upon deck by the
crew and some of the cooler-headed
passengers. Children became sepa-
rated from their parents in the confu-
sion, and the cries of women and chill
dren, mingling with the kissing sound
OF the escaping steam, produced a
terrible pandemonium. To add to
the excitement some one shouted
Fire :" and wild rush was made
for the life-preservers. Luckily there
were plenty Of these at hand, and the
passengers were soon supplied. Several
persons tried to jump overheard, and
two women were caught by a deck
hand Just as they were about to leap
of the rail. One young man had six
life-preseryers strapped around him.
and was wildly calling for his "ma, :"
and shouting "Fire " lie was sliced
by another passenger, who stihed his
cries by clapping his hand over his
mouth.
At the first crash Captain Manville,
who had been sitting on sofa near the
main staircase, rushed on deck. AS
sisted by the crew and few of the pas
sengers who had retained their presence
Of mind. he moved quickly about among
the frightened passengers, assuring them
that the danger was over, and that the
boat would not sink. In few minutes
be had succeeded in allaying their ex-
citemeni. and the panic, which threat
ened 10 result in loss Of life, was avert
ed. None Of the passengers received
more than few slight scratches, and
the escape Of many from death or Sc
rious injury is considered almost mira
culous.
When the excitement had subsidized
one Of the crew rowed to the Kaatskill-
Bay House, a mile distant, and tele-
graphed 70 Caldwell for the steamer
