 A Boston saloon keeper sprinkles liquor on the sidewalk in front of his place for the purpose of tempting the appetite, through the sense of smell, of some poor victims.
 As 6 result of shutting up the drinking places in Ireland on Sunday, there has been in the. last five years 8 decrease of $27, 800, 900 spent for intoxicating liquors.
 The supreme court of Ohio has decided that all taxes paid by saloon-keepers nnder the Scott law, which has been declared unconstitutional, shall remain in the diff ferent county treasuries.
 The editor of the Las Vegas (N. M.) Daily Optic has won wager of $l ,OOO that he would drink no intoxicating liqnor for self in a sketch with the startling title, ''Six Months Out of Hell," an argument for total abstinence.
 IT HAS MEDDLED WITH ME.-Liquor dealers wish to be let alone. But their business lets nobody alone. They scatter frebrands, arrows and death. They dig pits for unwary feet. They make havoc of home and hopes. They divided friends, destroy families and desolate households.
 Said ex-Senator Merriman of North Car olina, as reported 'I have never med dled with liquor! l have never drank it, have hardly kept it as medicine in my family :; and yet it has meddled with nae, has. made my boy a wandering vagabond, has broken my wife's heart; yes, when was asleep, thinking him at home in the house, he was being made drunkard in the bar rooms of Raleigh"
 Is it not time for everybody to meddle with such business as this ? When men set themselves at work systematically to decoy, debauch and degrade the young, the ignorant and the lnwary, is it not time that all lovers of truth and righteousness arise and witness and work against those who thus fatten on the ruin of their kind ?
 A liquor seller, as he presented his bill to the executor of deceased customer s estate, asked him if Che wished the items sworn to-" ''No," said the executor, ''the death of the deceased is sufficient evidence that he had the liquor. ."-Er.
 The following remarks from the Pacific Medical Journal, should be carefully con- sidered:
 "A whiskey drinker will commit murder only under the direct excitement of hqnor :; beer drinker IS capable of doing it in cold blood. Long observation has assured us that large proportion of murders de- liberately planned and executed without passion or malice, with no other motive than the acquisition of property or money, often of trifing value, are perpetrated by beer drinkers. <
 "We believe, furthex, that the heredi- tary evils of beer drinking exceed those proceeding from ardent spirits; first, be- cause the habit is constant and without paroxysmal interruptions, which admit of some recuperations secondly, because beer drinking is practiced by both sexes more generally than spirit drinking ; and thirdly, because the animalizing tendency of the habit is more uniformly developed, thus authorizing the presumption that the vicious results are more generally trans mitted.

ELECTED THE SAME DAY.-When the party reached Martinsburg on the return trip 0rom the recent excnrsion) 8 large crowd gathered abont the presidents car and cheered him enthusiastically. He finally went to the rear of the car and held an informal reception. One old white haired man was especially anxious to greet the president He crowded mp, pushing others one side, and at last succeeded in reaching the president.
 stMr. President" he said, in deep bass voice, s1 was candidate for school trustee here last fall"
 "Ah,' responded MT. Cleveland, smil- ing, 'sand were you elected ?"
 'sYes, sir; :; I was elected at the same time yon were.
 "Dear me-" said the president, 'I wish I could trade places with you. The train started before the school trustee could re- covor from his astonishment, and he did not have a chance to consider the presi- dents offer. There were no incidents of importance in the run from Martinsburg to Washington. -
 An East St. Louis miller kept corn in a bin, the sides of which sloped inwards. Nevertheless he daily saw the effect of rats. Wondering how the animals got in and ont of the bin he posted himself to watch them. One of the largest rats, which had remained outof the bin, upon hearing the mlller's footsteps, ran to the side of the bin and lowered himself over the edge until he hung only by his fore paws. Then his rat friends, getting a good start by running, jumped and seized upon the hanging rats body, raised them selves out and scampered off. When the last rat was out the old one climbed up from his suspended position and followed after

WITH the cholera daily extending and

atone in some degree for their previous

efforts are unsystemized and barely mit>

Spain the plague has attained such pros
portions and the conditions are so favors
able for its spread that it must simply
wear itself, out. 1t found its foothold
among people weakened and impover-
ished by earthquakes and floods, for
whose relief the general government had
done little or nothing. Something better
was naturally to be expected from en-

the prisoners within, who had been his daily
