A Scientific Witness.

In the trial in the Circuit Court of the Patter-
son suit against the Voss estate, yesterday after
noon, Samuel Love, the scientist, was called as
witness by plaintiff to tell about a conversation
or two he had with the late G.. II. Voss He was
passed over for cross examination by Mr.. Elan,
who asked the witness. "You are scientist I
believe, Mr.. Love-"
"Yes sir" was the reply, and thereupon the
witness began to explain some of his pet scien-
tific theories, including the scheme to drain
Pogue's run into subterranean channels. En-
couraged by the interest manifest
ed, he considered the prehistoric con-
dition of the earth, dwelling particularly
upon the mountain ranges they existed in one
interminable connection. bringing the mountains
of this country into close relationship with the
Balkan, Alpine and other ranges across the
ocean. This was the condition until the mighty
waters broke their barriers and arranged the
earth's topography as we have it now. He
alluded to his theories storms and recounted
the truthfulness of his meteorological predic-
tons All this was given until checked by the
court, to relieve the tedium Of trial over $685.

FRISKY ALDERMEN.
The Pleasing Scheme Proposed by BoSton's
Delegation to the Hendricks Funeral.

The Boston councilmen and aldermen came
out to the Vice-presidents funeral with expenses
provided for by an appropriation of $1,000. AS
customary with travelling parties of municipal
authorities from the Hub Messenger Peters, or,
as he would be called in any other section of the
country, sergeant alarms, had the necessary
drafts in his care, and all expenditures of
the sum appropriated had to be made through
him on the order of the chairman of the delega
ton, who happened to be the president of the
Board of Aldermen. The Boston head-centers of
municipal greatness, ten of them. liked their
journey so well that nine proposed to
and purpose covered by the appropria-
ton. They had hardly got we'll
into the amusements afforded by Indianapolis
before they began to talk of a return home, after
the funeral, by the way of New Orleans. 1t was
decided that New Orleans should he taken in,
but Messenger Peters being consulted, or rather
ordered to make arrangements for the extended
journey, demurred until he could see the chair
man of the delegation.
While the chairman of the delegation, with
the president of the Board of Councilmen, was
at dinner in the Bates House, Monday, and the
rest of the delegation sat at an adjoining table,
Messenger Peters came over to him with the
don't want to return home by Chicago. They
have decided to go to New Orleans, and want
you to sign draft for immediate means neces-
sary for the trip"
That is ridiculous said the chairman, "and I
will do nothing Of the sort. The appropriation
was made in view of the shortest possible jour-
ney. They can go to New Orleans il they wish,
but not on the money provided for this jour
ney"
Il think you wrong" said the president of
Bostons councilmen. at will be a legitimate
use of the funds, and I'm with the boys on this
occasion"
Il will sign no draft or order fer that pur-
pose" emphatically replied the chairman.
There is no use talking about the matter"
'Then," said one of the councilmen, who had
come over to join in the discussion. 1--WE will
hold meeting and, deposing you, elect some
body chairman who will agree with u.s."
THAT you can't do, for am chairman by vir-
tue of my office as president of the Board Of
Aldermen"
1--WE will see about that" was the retort, an
grily uttered and warmly commended by all of
the delegation except the chairman. That after
noon meeting was held, and an effort made to
depose the chairman, but after hot words, cooler
advice ruled, and the delegation went back to
Boston by the way of Chicago

Miscellaneous Notes.

On Monday, Dec Z the Central Vermont rail
road will resume the running of solid through
trains between Boston and Montreal The small
pox scare is over.
The total indebtedness contracted by the re-
ceivers of the West Shore il SO, 346 $50, and the
statement brings the figures down to Nov. a.
which was the date of the sale of the West
Shore road to the Vanderbilt people.
The Union Pacific has changed its running
time east and west to connect with the trains of
the Denver & Rio Grande at Denver Hereafter
there will be no lay-over either at Denver
or Omaha. Through sleepers are now run
from Denver to Chicago.
Transactions on the New York Stock Ex-
change for the month of November included the
sale of 13508 OPS shares of stocks an increase
of 8, 148,504 compared with last year; and
$50, l56. 8O3 railroad bonds, an increase of $780,
3S1, COB, as compared with last year.
The payments for December complete the
railway interest and dividend disbursements for
1855, and summary of payments for each

The Chicago, Milwaukee & St Paul people
announce that hereafter that road will decline

Chamberlain, D. T. The route west is closed
for the winter, and. besides. the progress of the
extension of the Northwestern makes competi-
ton impossible.
The Milwaukee, Lake Shore & Western rail
road runs from Milwaukee, SEQ miles northwest
into the iron-or regions in Wisconsin, along
Lake Superior The road was completed last
September Since that time, Mr.. Thompson
says. up to the LIST of December, they have
shipped from their seven mines, 125. 900 tons of
Bessemer ore the greater part of this into
Pennsylvania. With their increased facilities,
next year. they expect to bring out not less than
500, 900 tons.
The Baltimore Sun, in speaking of the trunk
line combination, calls attention to the fact that
there is a new competitor for Western traffic
which at present is unrecognized by its great
rivals. 1t says the Chesapeake & Ohio road has
several very distinct advantages for the cheap
handling of Western freight When it is double
tracked and provided with necessary terminal
facilities. it will be prepared to insist upon its
pro rata of business or to maintain a position of
dangerous neutrality, as it shall deem most prof
liable.

How Women Differ from Men,

AT least three men the average jury are
bound to disagree with the rest just to show
that they've got minds of their own; but there is
no disagreement among the women as to the

best remedy in the werd for all those chronic
diseases weaknesses and complaints peculiar to
their sex. Ii transforms the pale. haggard, dis
