Suicides of Cranlka.

In citing the strange methods of sui
cides says the Globe Democrat, it Is
impossible to refrain from giving the
work Of cranks. Chas. H. Jessup, of
Boston, went into barber shop,
drank q bottle OF hair dye and died in
the chair he was to be shaved in.
Leonidas Robertson, of Madison,
Wis, put on his wife's clothing and
sun-bonnet and hung himself. 4 man
at Marietta, o., jumped into tho riv-
er with q tailor's goose in each hand
and q life prescrver about his feet. A
wealthy citizen at Topeka, Kan, had
u hot-iir balloon constructed, went
skyward in 1t and then set fire to it
with a bottle Of turpentinc. Another
genius at Pensacola, Fla, sat down
in his room, placed the muzzle OF a
small cannon to his breast and touch
ed it off with II red-hot poker. 4
school teacher in Kansas drank some
poisoned wlliskoy before his class
with a flourish, saying, Boys, who

of lovers in Mississippi put ar
senic in an oyster stew and ate the
scew. A theological student in Cincin-
natl placed his head in s. fireplace and
allowed himself to be roasted. Baron
Omyi's suicide at Pcsth, Hungary, was
the occasian ofmuch comment. 1t up
pears from Investigations made after
his death that he had compartment
in q house distant from the one in
which he lived which was supplied
with cigars OF all kinds and various
brands of chewing and smoking tobac-
co. 1t was his habit to spend nearly
all his time in his room, and from the
labels of boxes and other indications
in tho room, it was seen that he
smoked ell immense quantity of to-
bacco and strong foreign cigars. He
had actually smoked himselfto death.
In Now York City 4 man jumped into

A ERlsChOOd Nailed.

Anirrcaponslble penny -a-liner recently set
going In u New York DAILY newspaper a ma
1icious statement that the prizes of the Lou
isiana State Lottery Company arc paid to
persons in it's employ, and not honestly
drawn and paid.
to Journals unfricndly to the Company, and
readers not aware OF the facts arc likely to
be affected by them.
An Ohio correspondent clips 1t from a To-
cal weekly and writes the Company on the
9Th inst, to ask il there is any truth in it.
Let Generals Beauregard and Early, who
have the entire charge OF all the Company's
Drawings, answer not only this correspond
emit but all whose faith in the COMPANY has
been disturbed by this and similar calum-
NOUS pa paragraphs. Read tho exact la nguagc'
Of Generals Bcaurogard and Early in tho
following statement to which their names
are signed:
The charges Instructions, and inuendoes
contained in said publication are false in
every respect, SO far as they affect the fair
ness of the drawings OF the Louisiana Lot
terry Company. When the undermined had
charge only of the semi-annual~ drawings
they counted the tubes containing the num-
bcrs previous to each OF those drawings to
be certain that all were put in the Wheel
Since they have had charge Of tho monthly
drawings also, the wheel has been under their
exclusive control, and after each drawing
they have restored all the drawn numbers
to the wheel, locked it, and sealed 1t in such
q manner us to render it impossible for tho
numbers to be reached or intcrfcrcd with
without their knowledge. They have thus
been always certain that all tho numbers
wcro in tho wheel at each drawing, and they
alone arc responsible for tho integrity OF the
drawings.
The intimation that persons have been
paid to allow their names to be published
as the winners OF prizes in this Lottery is
also false and without the slightest fountla-
ton In fact. Millions Of dollars have been
paid out by the Company in prizes through
the banks and express agencies, as can be
ascertained from the bank officers in New Or
leans, and the Express Agents in New York,
Washington City, and in this city, as we'll as
iron, the winners of the prizes whose names
have been given to the public.

A Daily DefnlCAtiOn.

Tho nsr. John Kelly, the head and
front Of Tammany Hall, a man of
strict integrity, an,indefatigable work
or. enrly at his office, late to leave, SO
burdened with business that regular
meals were seldom known by him, with
mind in constant tension and energies
steadily trained, finally broke down!
The wonder is that he did not soon
er give way. An honest man in all
things else, he acted unfairly with his
physical resources. HeWas ever draw
ing upon this bank without ever de-
posting collateral. The account
overdrawn, the bank suspends and
both are now in the hands of medical
receivers.
1t is not work that kills men. It is
irregularity of habits and mental wor-
ry. No man in good health frets at
his work: Bye and bye when the
bank OF vigor suspends, these mon will
wonder how 1t all happened, and they
will keep wondering until their dying
day unless, perchance, some candid
physician or interested friend will
point out to them how by irregulari-
ty, by excessive mental effort, by con-
stant worry and fret, by plunging in
deeper than they had a right to go,
they have produced that loss of ner-
vous energy which almost invariably
expresses itselfin n deranged condition
of the kidneys and liver, for it is we'll
known fact that the poison which the
kidneys and liver should remove from
the blood, if left therein, soon knocks
the life out OF the strongest and most
vigorous man or woman. Daily build
ing up of these vital organs by 80 won
derful and highly reputed specific as
Warmers safe cure IS the only guaran-
tee that our business men can have
that their strength will be equal to the
labors daily put upon them.
Mr.. Kelly has nervous dyspepsia we
learn, indicating, as we have said, a
breakdown of nerve force. His case
should be a warning to others who, pur-
suing a like course, will certainly reach
q like result.-The Sunday Herald.

Norway Restaurant Dinners.

Norway hCSCalr0nC Dinners.
Cor. Springfield Republican.
Another unique feature of Christiana
is it's steam-kitchen. Here two dim
ners are provided daily at 33 and Al
ore, about l and Ii cents, if they are
partaken of in the dinning-room OF the
establishment. They cost still less if
you come with your own basket and
carry away the provisions. You pay
at a little window within the entrance
stating which dinner you desire, and
receive a small brass check. There
are two large dining halls filled with
long marble tables, on each side of
which are stationary wooden benches.
At one side are two large windows
with inner counters. Here you present
your check and receive the day dinner
which you must carry to the place and
table you have selected: Two or three
walters are in attendance, but only to
remove the plates, &c. The food is
wholesome and hearty. We had ex-
cellent meat balls with potatoes and
gravy, a large piece OF bread and on
immense rice pudding, with raspberry
sauce. OF course the place is largely
frequented by the lower classes, but
the poorest people carry away their
meals. In the upper dining-hall every
one had attained considerable re-
spectability in the social scale; except
for the extremely fastidious it is really
something to see.

Keep None But Good Horses.

One reason why so many of our farm
ers have found farming less profitable
than it ought to be, is because they
have kept so much poor stock. Even
where they have not attempted to make
stock direct source of income, but
have only kept enough to work the farm
! and supply the wants of the family,
they have suffered loss by keeping taoso
Of too little value. In the wav of
horses, every farmer expects to keep
enough to work the farm, draw its
products to market, haul back such
supplies as arc needed and carry the
family when they leave the farm for
business, for pleasure, or in the dis
charge Of social or religious duties.
Now, how common it is for farm
or to think that he can get along
with w-priced, perhaps broken down
horses, at least for part of his sup
ply. His pride may lead him to keep
one pretty snowy span to drive
upon the road, while quite infori-
or ones may pass muster rs work
horses. This, we think, is mistake
No species of stock costs so much for
keeping as horses, and it costs Just rs
much to keep poor rs good hor,os, and
often more. A we'll built horse, with
perfect organs, will digest and assimilate
his food much better, and consequently,
keep in good condition on much loss
feed than loose built, slab sided horse,
with weak digestive organs.
In recent paper We suggested that
it might be good policy for farmers to
keep an extra team of breeding mares,
to help during the greatest rush of
| work and raise pair of colts during
the more leisure season. In following
out such q plan he should employ no
common scrub to sire his colts, but
employ thorough breds;. Percheron
or Clydesdalc, if he wants to breed
solid work horses; Cleveland Bays, or
some other good, active breed with
great powers of endurance, if he wishes
to breed roalsters. In this way he is
constantly improving his herd, and
when he hires mon to work his teams
they can earn their money.
Another great advantage in keeping
none but good horses is, they are
always salable.

DEVELOPMENT Of the 1trotter.

Development Of the TrOtter.
when Flora Temple trotted mile
In 2:18 3.4, remarks the New York
Herald, the achievement astonished
the world. This was in 1850. The
mare was looked upon as q wonder.
Few then believed that a mile would
ever be trotted in less than 2:15. 1t
took eight years to lower the record
OF 1850, and down to 1874 the best
time made was 2:17. In that year the
record was reduced below 2:15 by
Goldsmith Maid, who scored mile
in 2:14.
1t was then generally thought that
the limit OF a trotter's speed would
prove to be 2:1O. But Maud S. had
not yet made her appearance, nor had
Jay-Eye-See. The former brought the
record down to within a quarter of q
second of 2:1O in 1881, and three
years latef the latter reduced it to
2:1O. The prophets of the turf made
bold to predict mile in 200, and
even 2:O8. Maud 8. has rapidly low
cred the former figure: and now Presi-
dent Edwards of the Cleveland asso-
citation, expresses his conviction that
the wonderful mare can trot in POT
under favorable circumstances, and
Mr.. Bonner declares that it will not
surprise him to see the prediction veri-
fed.
