President Tyler and his Witty Coach,
man

A Washington letter recalls a story
told of John Tyler, who, it will be re-
membered, got to the White House
through the death of President Harri-
son: Tyler was very fond of fine turn
out, but his pocket was not deep enough
to correspond with his tastes. One day
one of the leading members of the dip
lomatic circle was recalled from Wash
ington, and his magnificent establish
ment had to be sold. An important part
of this was his carriage, which was at
the time the finest by all odds in Wash
ington. Tyler had looked at it many
times with longing eyes as its owner had
driven it up and down Pennsylvania
avenue, and as it had stood now and
then in front of the White House. He
feared, however, the criticism which was
sure to attend the buying of anything
by the President at auction, and called
his coachman, with whom he was famil-
lar, to advise with him in regard to it.
The coachman liked the carriage and
wac anxious that Mr.. Tyler should buy
it. "But Pat" said Tyler, "what will
the world say at the Presidents riding in
second hand carriage?" "Och your
honor" was the reply, "they will say
nothing about it at all, at all. You
know you are but a second hand Presi-
dent, any way, and it seems to me moth.
ing could be more fit. Whether the
President bought the carriage or not the
reports fail to state.

Exhibited His Nerve.

Thomas Watson, n brakeman, met with a
singular accident to-day, which would have re-
suited III instant death but for his remarkable
exhibition of nerve. While walking backward
down the track in front of moving cars, which
he was preparing to couple, Watson's heel was
caught in frog. He made desperate effort
to wrench his foot loose OF pull it out of the
shoe. Failing in both attempts, and Just as
the cars were about closing in on him, he
cast his body to one side OF the track with such
force as to break his thigh and knee bones,
which permitted his body to bend in such a
position that the wheels passed by, simply
crushing the heel of his shoe, without much
injury to his foot. Watson's broken bones
have been reset and the physicians say he will
not be crippled at all.-Hearne, Tea. Dis

TALES OF The DIARIES,
The Journals Kept by Lieutenant
1sreeIyis Party.

oNcclS's EaHtgs
In view Of the discussion which has arisen
with regard to the nature Of the facts set forth
in the private diaries CT the members Of Lieut..
Greely's party, the secretary Of war has au-
thorzed Gen. Hazen to make public or to fur
nish for inspection, upon request, such OF the
diaries us are in the possession Of the signal
Office. These include the whole Of Lieut.
Lockwoods journal and n part OF Lieut.
Greely's. Sergt. Brainerd's diary is in his
personal possession, and Sergt. Cornell re-
fused to allow his to be examined, ling that
he had written it with the express understand
ing that it should be read by no one except
the chief signal officer.
The journals of Lieuts. Greedy and Lock-
wood add little which is not already known
of the history of the expedition, but furnish
moro detailed evidence of the bad feeling,
pickering and occasional insubordinatio which
were manifested during the last year of the
party's Arctic experience. Among the ques-
tons relating to the management of the party
during the last winter which have been in dis
pute are whether it was possible to cross
Smiths sound at any time during the winter
to Littleton island, and whether Lieut.. Greedy
refused TO allow an attempt TO cross to be
made. From Lieut. Lockwood's diary it APP
pears that during the latter part of December
and all through January, 1884, plars were
talked of for an attempt to cross Smiths
sound to Lttleton island to find help, or at
least food, and on tho morning of Feb 2,
Sergt. Rice and Jams, one of the hunters, start
ed on the journey. On the afternoon of the
7th both returned, Jams greatly exhausted.
Rice reported that they had reached a dis
lance over the moving ice of about ten miles
from shore. At that point space of open
water was found stretching from north to
south, and on the opposite side the ice pre-
scented the same appearance as that on the
west side and was drifting north. This set
tied the question of getting across, for the
swift southerly current and the tides constant
ly grounded and crushed the ice on the west
side so that it was physically impossible to drag
boats across, and almost so for human beings
to struggle across

PENNSYLVANIA G. A. R.
This Weeks Convention and Matters
That VIII Come Before II.

There AZ many delegates to the annua
encampment Of the Pennsylvania department
of the Grand Army of the Republic conven-
ing in Harrisburg this week. There are in the
state about $50 posts OF the Grand Army of
the Republic with an aggregate membership
OF about 10000. The encampment will be
attended by about 1000 delegates, and the
event will attract at least rs many more ex-
soldiers. Among the duties of the encamp-
ment will be the selection of Sc delegates to
the national encampment at Portland, Me.
Action will likely be taken urging the Legisa-
ture to pass a bill appropriating 500 900 for
the maintenance of soldiers orphun schools
in the state for the next two years. These
schools have cost the state about SIS, 900 900
since their establishment over 20 years ago.
1t was originally intended that this educational
system should end when the youngest orphan
should have attained the age Of l6 years, but
the Legislature, through the urgent requests
of the Grand Army of the Republic, widcned
the scope of the schools so as to admit into
them children of crippled and destitute SOL
diers, and provided that they should not be
closed until 1890.

DOG MEAL AS MEDICINE.
A Man who Ate Fifteen Dogs and was
Cured of Bright's Disease.

Cured of Bright's Disease.
The use of dog meat to cure Bright's disease
has come into notice by the account of the
restoration of the health of Samuel McGregor,
farmer of St. Clair county, Illinois, who, after
spending nearly all that he was worth upon
physicians and patent medicines, was pronounc"
ed incurable, but now is as healthy man as
walks He traces his present vitality to feed
ing upon the flesh of dogs, according TO the
advice of an old German woman who learned
Of his hopeless condition. She insisted that he
should commence feeding on canine flesh, and
she would guarantee his complete recovery, or
she would die in his stead. The idea Of
eating dog meat was most nauseating to Nc
Gregor, but, like a drowning man grasping at
straw, he resolved to diet on dog flesh as a last
resort. He had become so fond of dog meat
that he could hardly give up eating it, but the
Juror that had been produced in the locality
among the people who were missing their dogs
and the threats made against the party who was
taking them, warned him that he must call q
halt. In all he ate fifteen dogs, and is firm in
his faith that he cured his terrible disease solely
by eating dog meat.

Snow Piled Up in Chicago,

The heaviest snowstorm known for year
visited Chicago recently. The snow began to
fall in binding sheets about o'clock in the
evening, and the biting wind whirled it about
in clouds for "a hours. The streets were de-
serted and no one ventured out unless COM
PEELED to do so. The street cars did not pretend
TO observe any schedule time, but after while
the cable lines were in excellent shape, and
open all uay. AS the storm did not develp into
one of slcet the telegraph wires were not
interlerred with, but the trains on all the rail-
roads were very late. At times during the
day, the storm waged so furiously that it was
Impossible for pedestrians to see 20 feet in front
of them. In some parts of the city the drifts
were II feet deep, and many houses were lock-
ed in by huge masses of snow.

Baltimore, Maryland, writes: In an ex-
perienee Of thirty years have become

specifics for coughs and colds, but never
before experienced such surprising eff
cacy as was obtained from the Red Star

How many perons live only fraction Of
average human life because they neglect to
take the commonest precautions against sick
ness. II is disease in its maturity that kills,
and maturity implies growth. A slight indis-
position is usually sighted. They who avail
themselves Of Hostetters Stomach Bitters
know il 10 be efiicacious in chronic cases Of
disease, but the process OF cure is q far easier

and liver arrangement. Let those who would
avoid The peril which even the most potent rem
edies cannot avert, steer clear Of the rock upon
which so many constitutions split-an under
appreciation Of the danger of neglect. 1t will

KELLEY AND HIS MOTOR.
English Scientists Greatly Interested in
the Novel Invention.

Through the efforts of Mrs. Bloomfield H.
Moore, wealthy Philadelphia lady now resld-
ing in London, who has been advancing money
to Kelley, tho inventor, during the past three
years, and Maj Ricardo Seaver, an eminent
English scientist, it is probable that the famous
Kelley motor will be exhibited at the invent
ors exhibition in London in June. Great in
terest has been aroused in the matter among
English scientists. 1t is claimed that the motor
is nearly completed in all details, and public
exhibition of its workings is expected in short
time.

THE WESTERN ANARCHISTS.

Organizations that are Well Supplied
with Firearms and Dynamite.
Several meetings Of Socialists have been held
in Chicago recently. Al one on the north side
Of the city the moderate Socialists and the
Anarchists divided the time in discussion. The
Socialists counselled moderation and agitationi
the Anarchists, as usual, the use OF dynamite,
which, as one speaker, remarked, would make
one man equal to a thousand. lie favored de-
hance Of all law.
At a recent st. Louis meeting OF Socialists,
the labor question was discussed in very
temperate tone, but black bordered circular
was freely distributed, which was bitter tirade
against Germany for the execution OF Anar-
chists, and called upon the workingmen to
organize and revolt against the priestcrait,
monarchs and monopoly; the Bohemian group
OF InteTnationalists also held a meeting, at
which the present wage system and all kinds OF
monopoly were condemned, and revolution and
Socialism advocated.
f. X. Geger, formerly an agent Of the In
ternational Wor1ingmen's Association (Anar-
chists), says there are four groups Of orders in
Cleveland, with 200 members and
many sympath zers. Two are Buhe-
milan and two are German. A fifth,
American, will be organized ut once Geger
says the workingmen there are ripe for riot,
and that unless the times improve. the great
est revolution the world has ever seen will be
inaugurated. The Socialists are increasing
in numbers there very rapidly. Geger is a
railroad clerk.
The story that anarchists were armed and
drilling at Pittsburg, aud that dynamite was
stored in various parts OF the city, seems TO
have some foundation. A prominent official
states that he had reliable information that
dynamite was stored in at least one
place and that large supply of
guns had been lately received by the
Pittsburg Anarchists, which he thought had
been shipped from Chicago. The parties
having these arms, he said, were foreigners,
not workingmen out of employment, but
Anarchists. Herr Joseph Prick, prominent
Socialist, says the Anarchists in Pttsburg are
armed and have their regular nights for drill
ing. He says there are about 1000 members
in Allegheny county.

Mrs. Mary Stubs, wealthy widow and the
largest individual contributor to many charita-
bic and benevolent societies in Philadelphia,
died suddenly in the Olivet Presbyterian
church, of which she was one of the founders.
1t has been her peculiar habit for many years
to inclose bank notes in an envelope and hand
it to the usher Of The church every Sunday as
he passed her pew. Her contributions to the
support of the church were made wholly in this
way. After depositing the envelope, and as he
was pas ing Mrs Stubs pew on his way up

and, turning, found her unconscious. Before a
physician arrived she had expired of heart dis

ROGER AMERO'S CASE,

copies of the evidence taken at the time Roger
Amero was extradited from Nova Scotia at the
request of the United Safes government for
the murder of Mrs. Carlton Mt Watertown,
Mass, in the spring Of 1885, Amero, it will be

year. He returned to Nova Scotia when liber-

family having died of grief, and himselfbank-

last session, but, owing to the late hour, the

suitable reparation for the great wrong Amero
suffered at the hands of Atty Gen. Sherman, in
violation Of the spirit of the extradition treaty.

A Lost Town,

The governor of Irkutsk, Siberia, being
of an enterprising turn, set out some
months ago to explore the region over
which he rules and came across town
of 500 people, with 100 houses, four an
cient churches and valuable Cossack
relics, of which he nor the Russian gov.
eminent had ever heard. This last town
was found to have republican form of
government, although not one of the in
habitants could read or write any Ian
guage. Oddly enough, they told the
governor they were sorry they had been
discovered.

The human body is much like a good clock
or watch in its movements; if one goes too
slow or too fast, so follow all the others, and
bad time results; if one organ or set of organs
works imperfectly, perversion of functional
effort of all the organs is sure to follow Hence
it is that the numerous ailments which makes
womans life miserable are the direct issue of
