The recent annual meeting of the
American Bar association, prompted
the Chicago Current to say: "The
learned advocates and attorneys will
read able and exhaustive treatises on
the majesty Of law and the desirability
of justice for all, but it is safe TO say
that not single redundant word shall
be plucked from the documentary
language that now scandalizes Ameri-
can legal practice. If a man say
funeral Obsequies,' a thousand editors
boot at him. If he covenant, grant.

1t is said that Miss Dora Fitzgerald
the St. Louis, girl who was made the
victim of an assault in July last, on
sandboat at midnight, has been so Sc
riously al ected ever since that her
mind is giving away, and it will be
necessary TO put her in an insane asy-
Ium. This may not be of interest to
the world in general but to all people
who have any love orjustice it brings
a sympathy which ifproperly express
ed would give the brutes who COM
mitted the assault, at least fly years
in the penitentiary, if not the surer and
cheaper punishment of hanging.

The Chicago Herald thinks "a mil
lion of dollars is a great deal Of money
to put into a monument for the dead
when there are thousands suffering for
the necessaries of life" The million
of dollars have not yet been Put into
a monument for the dead, nor are
they likely to be soon. When they
are, it is quite probable that few of
"the thousands suffering for the ne
cessaiies of life" will get some work to
do. Work on any kind of enterprise
is better than no work at all, and cap
ital in motion is much better than
money locked up.

Fifteen Days Without Food.

A peculiar case, and one without par
allel in this section, came to our notice
this week. Fannie Eliza, little daugh-
ter of Benz. Eliza (colored), of Weston,
has for fifteen days been the subject Of
strange malady. From about the
third day Of June until the seventeenth
inst, she had not eaten single morsel
of food, aud took nothing except now
and then a drink Of water. During
this interval she was not confined to
bed by illness, and in the day time
would walk around as usual. On the
fifteenth day her appetite apparently
returned. The first thing she called
for was cheese, and since that time she
has eaten as heartily as anybody. Her
fast of 800 hours has not affected her
seriously. About four years ago the
little girl drank some I've water, and
since then, at times, she would not be
able to eat; but never before for so
long time as this.-W Weston Democrat.

A Deserved Pun en- {.

A dispatch from Washington, D. c.,
says: "'rhe spectacle Of one ofthe best
known Pennsylvania avenue merchants
punching the head of another man in
Ninth street fruit store, in the presence
and with the approval of the merchants
wife, drew large crowd to the spot,
and whetted the curiosity Of everybody
to know the why and wherefore of the
occurrence. The facts are that Mr..
Orme's wife, who, as she rides along in
her carriage presents an attractive APP
pearance, had noticed for some time past
that her every step was logged by
person in the attire of gentleman,
who seemed content to follow her
wherever she went, and only stopped
short of addressing her. Thursday
afternoon he followed her into every
store where she CHANGED to be shopping,
until the annoyance became unbeara-
BILE. She then instructed her coachman
to drive to he. husbands store. The
loiterer evidently recognized her inten-
ton, and did not follow her in; but
she informed her husband Of his con-
duct, and they arranged to let him keep
it up little longer. Accordingly, she
drove to the fruit store referred to, and
her follower was soon standing behind
her. Presently, however, Mr.. Orme
appeared upon the scene, and the pum-
melting he administered to the stranger
left him with barely strength and pres
ence of mind enough to make good his
escape. Some people who did hot I'M
derstand the affair pointed out the in
dignant husband rs disturber Of the
peace, and he was taken to the police
station. He put up collateral for his APP
pearance and drove off home with his
wife, and with the consciousness of a
duty well performed. The miscreant
punished by Mr.. Orme is an attache of
one of the foreign legations.

veritable deluge and during the next
hour and half four and one-halfinches
of rain fell. The various small streams
in and about the city, notably Jones'
Falls, Chatsworth run and Hartford
run, became rushing torrents, and the
dwelling houses and other buildings
along their banks were inundated.
Jones' Falls, the dirty, sluggish stream
which runs through the heart of the
city, was swollen to an immense height
and oyerflowed its banks, pouring great
volumes of water into the lower part OF
Harrison, Holiday and other streets
adjacent and flooding them to the ex-
tent Of five feet and over. Boats were
brought into requisition by the people
and police in traversing those streets to
investigate the damage. On Harrison
street the losses by the flooding of cellars
destroying the goods therein, will ag-
gregate 81, 200. A little stream in Snake
hollow, in the western suburb, became
river of two hundred yards wide and
carried away thirty hogs from the stock
yards. The damage caused by the
flooding of cellars, washing out of walls,
ETC., throughout the city will aggregate
$4,000. There was no loss of life. A
section of the Western Maryland Rail-
road, i've miles out of the city, was
swept away, delaying trains six hours.
The steeple of the Methodist Church at
Westminster was struck by lightning
and slightly damaged.
