Doctor Paaren's Preca utiOns for Preventing
the Spreading of Chambers.
CHICAGO, Sept. 28-Doctor Paaren, the State
Veter marian, has returned to this city from
Vandalia, ILL.,, where he has been investigating
the recent outbreak of CHAMBERS. He reports
having killed six horses in that town, and says
that the existence of CHAMBERS in its most viru-
lent form is unquestioned. He has taken such
steps as WILL he thinks, effectually stamp out
the disease, and has ordered the arrest and
prosecution of two farmers for keeping for some
time, and finally selling a horse known by
them to be afflicted. Doctor Paaren attributes
the spread of the disease to the fact that many
other horses in the vicinity came frequently into
contact with this glaEdered animal

everything, and by this course he has made
success greater than that of almost any
contemporaueous statesman. His civil
service system will carry his name
down to succeeding generations long
after those who have hooted
at it and him are forgotten. 1t is whispered
that Mr.. Pendleton, if he does not 60 into

Gen. Slocum of New York is another gen

fulfilled the expectations with which his

sion as debut" but rather as reappear-
ance. His only brilliant performance in this
congress has been to thus far defeat the
Grant retirement bill
BECAUSE OF HIS CHAGRIN
over the veto of the Fitz John Porter bill
Mr.. Randall still hopes to get the Grant bill
through, however, in spite of opposition.
Slocum is rather good-looking fellow, with
pretty good address, but aside from. his two
fights for Fitz John Porter and against Grant,
he seems to have accomplished little, as he
had been in congress for couple of terms
before coming to this one.
Mr. Ochiltree, the ''only native Texan
ever elected to congress-" is an
other retiring fgure.'' He has not
disappointed anybody, for nobody expected
anything of him. What is to become of him
after the protection of congress is withdrawn
from his now sacred person, is hard to say,
for Mr.. Alexander still swears he will slice
him up the day he ceases to be member OF
congress. How sad fate for one so young
and innocent.
Mr.. Belford the red-headed roarer of the

Her Brilliant Success on the Continent
FotIosced by Failure in Americd.
From the Pittsburg Chronicle.
Two years ago Nine. Janish was leading
lady at the Imperial theater, Vienna. The
exactions of court theater cannot be appre
ciated in democratic America, where the
masses are both critic and judge. Called to
st. Petersburg, her reception by the retinue
that surrounds the court of the car of all the
Russians, was enough to turn the head of an
ordinary woman. Fresh from storning the
Russian heart, madame went to Paris and
began a siege of English grammar prepare
tory TO a descent on America. Three months
settled it. She opened in New York. She
failed. Illness was the decrept excuse for
an interrupted engagement. Her English
was charming; but the public wouldn't have
her. Why9 Ask It. Two weeks later Man
ager Sargent played her in Philadelphia to
empty benches. Baltimore season fol-
lowed. Itwas more disastrous than the New
York fasco. Sargent released his star in dis
gust. Yet Nine. Janish countess Of Arco is
one of the most brilliant opponents Of
tragedy in the histrionic frmament,in the eyes
OF the critical continental-and her acting
revelation Of careful thought and study.
