The Mexican Congress-

Mexico ID nominally governed by q
congress, first called September ID, 1878,
which has probably seen as many vicis.
STUDIES as any assembly on earth has ever
seen in the same time. II has been
chased here and there, dissolved, ex.
PEELED, recalled and remodeled, until it
has finally settled down into an estab.
lished institution. 1t now consists of
Senate OF about sixty members, which
meets in room in the national palace.
and a chamber of deputies of some two
hundred and twenty members, which
meets In the old theatre of Iturbide.
over half mile from the national palace.
In appearance this congress could hardly
be distinguished from that of the United
States. Fully nine tenths of its mem.
bers are of pure white blood, and the
other tenth have no more color than
fashion demands of stylish brunette.
No traces of rusticity, coarseness, ig.
norance or stupidity are visible, nor is
there any sign of what Is generally
known as Mexican costume. Both bod
les are composed of eminent soldiers,
scholars, lawyers and members of other
professions, with young men whose tai.
ents have attracted notice; and the mem.
bers show degree of politeness and
dignity that would improve many of our
State Legislatures. Their conversation
in the lobbies and on the floor shows an
extraordinary degree of culture and ed.
ucation, and both bodies are the last to
which one would look for subserviency
to the executive. -Harper's Magazine,

I,iucolu's Visitor.

Mr.. Lincoln was quite ill early in the
winter of 1868, and was not inclined
to listen to all the borcs who called at
the White House. One day, just as
one of these pests had seated himself
for a long interview. the Presidents
physician happened to enter the room,
and Mr.. Lincoln said, holding out his
hands:
Doctor, what are those blotches ?''
That's varioloid, or mild smallpox"
said the doctor.
They're all over me. 1t is conta.
gious, believe said Mr.. Lincoln.
VERY contagious indeed" replied
the Esculapian attendant
"Well, | can't stop, Mr. Lincoln
just called to see how you werc," said
the visitor.
"Oh, don't be 10 hurry, sill pla-
cidly replied the Executive.
"Inank you, BIT; ii call again, re-
piled the visitor, executing mastery
retreat from fearful contagion.
"Do, sir" said The President. Some
people say Lhey could not take very
well to my proclamation, but now. l
am happy TO say, have something that
everybody can take BY this time the

The MOrld,s Chamnlan.

Mr.. Edward Hanlan. the great oars
man, and until his recent contest with
Beach in Australia, the champion of
the world, may certainly be looked upon
as an authority in everything affecting
athletic sports. Before leaving Aus
tralia for this country, he wrote q let
ter in which he stated that he had used
st. Jacobs Oil with the most beneficial
results. He found it a reliable remedy
for muscular pains in tho arms and
limbs. and from his personal expert
ence took great pleasure in recommend
ing it. No stronger proof of the truth
OF what is claimed for st. Jacobs Oil
could be furnished than this, and it
will undoubtedly carry great weight
with all thoughtful and intelligent
people.

OIL Cake for Young Stock.

There is probably no food better
adapted to forcing a healthy, rapid
growth of young stock than ground oil
cake. and in fact we might say there is
no food better for all kinds of stock.
Old broken down horses are made to
look sleek and fat by feeding oil cake,
while the young stock can be forced in
growth to wonderful extent. Corn
and oats are hard to digest for young
stock, and often cause disease both in
the stomach and mouth. We frequent
ly hear complaints that calves and colts
are not doing well, although fed an
abundance of grain, and have invaria-
bly, found in such cases that they were
troubled either with constipation or
sore mouth. or both. The first years
growth on calf or colt is worth more
than the two following, and should be
crowded as fast as possible. During
the first year the foundation is laid,
and sif dwarfed and cramped from
starvation or neglect, can only make
scrub at maturity. The time to make
large frames is during the first year,
and without large frames the prospect
for draft or beef are by no means en-
couraging.

Iha Trial of Haven.

The t,ial of Joel NJ Haven, late treasurer Of
the Rutland railroad. Oh an indictment fol
overissuing stock of the road hus been opened
at the county court in Rutland, Vt. The case
excites great interest. In 1888, Charles Gle.
ment & Sons gained control of the road and
ousted Page and Haven. An investigation OF
the hooks then proved deficiency of nearly
$4,000. Robert Mclaughlin of Boston, ap
expert accountant, has since been examining
tho books, and is the chiei witness
for the state. The indictment
now tried alleges that Haven, while
treasurer Of the railroad, made an
overissue of 100 shares of preferred stock,
which were sold through brokers r. l.. Day 6
Co., of Boston, to George w. Parker of that
city. The certificate alleged in the indictment
is dated June l6, 1881. This lot of stock
brought $50 per share, according to Mr. Dayi
statement, while it is alleged in the several in
dictments against Haven that he at various
times issued false certificates of 1891 shares OF
preferred stock, bringing oyer S45O 900. and 49j
shares of common stock for about $1,000. OF
this amount, according TO Mr.. Mclaughlin 8 in.
vestigation, 1899 shares were ovorissued to

Of Virginia, who WAS to address tho meeting,
snd John Amber Smith, claim agent OF
Washington and formerly member of Congress

They occupied adjoining seats in the smoking
car, and when about two miles from Alexan-
dria Smith and Wise became involved in a
wlangle. in which Smith called Wise liar
lie had no sooner uttered the words than he
received singing blow in the mouth from
Wise that drew the blood, and knocked him
down. Wise followed up his uttnck, but the
crowd interlered and stopped the row. When
Alexandria was reached, Wise went to Arlnory
Hall, whore the meeting was being held The
meeting was noisy from the start, and when
Wise appeared on the stnsc and began to
speak, ho was interrupted by the friends Of
Smith, who hhd assembled in large numbers
with all manner of insulting remarks, and was
finally forced to leave the stage and hall, and
the meeting broke up in disorder.

A Remarkable ExDerience-

Mr.. Arkell, editor of the Albany Jour-
nal, who is only tnirtv-one years of age,
has most remarkable history, writes
correspondent of the New York World.
He is the son of Senator Arkell. He
was in his fathers factory when he was
seventeen years of age, at the moment
OF a terrible gasoline explosion. The
workman who was with young Arkell
was blown out of sight. Not enough
was left of him to be gathered together
for identification. Young Arkell who
did not lose consciousness, covered his
mouth and ewes, and made dash for
the door. The building in which the
explosion took place became filled at
once with black smoke.
The boy butted his way with his head
through five doors, going literally
through fire. In his passage he became
frightfully burned The time of the &C.
cldent was winter. When he finally
reached the outer air he rolled in the
snow, and left in the snow the front and
back of both of his hands and the cover
ing of much of the lower part of his face.
He was burned 80 hopelessly that the
doctors for long time despaired of him.
Senator Arkell, who was on one of the
upper floors of the building when the
explosion took place, escaped by drop
ping from window down a fall of
twenty five feet upon q strip of bare
rock.
His son was in bed for two years. His
face was 80 badly burned that it was i'm.
possible for the natural skin to recover
it. His hands were equally afflicted.
Senator Arkel discovered in his reading
experiments in the direction of trans
planting skin from one person to another.
He asked the surgeons in charge of his
son to try this experiment. The result
was one of the most interesting known
in the chapters of surgery.
Upon the face of young Mr.. Arkell
there were transplanted s56 pieces of
skin from the arms of various people.
The result is that his face was entirely
built up, so that to-day, while he bears
very heavy scars, he yet looks very well,
considering what he has been through.

whenever and wherever

Diseases of cholerac type prevail, or there is
cause to apprehend n visit from them, the sys-
tenn should be toned, regulated and reinforced
by course of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters.
Perfect digestion and regular habit of body
are the best safeguards against such maladies,
and both are secuted by this inestimable ton
ic and Alternative. The Bitters are also ex-
tremely serviceable in remedying such disor-
ders. If promptly taken in bilious colic
diarrhna and cholera morbus, the disease is
usually frustrated. In diarrhea cases, it is
only necessary to restore the tone of the re-
laxed bowels, and this is one Of the specific
effects of this medicine. Wind on tho stom-
ach, heartburn, biliousness, nausea, headache
and other symptoms of disturbance in the
gastric and hepatic regions are also speedily
relieved by this excellent remedy. AS FAM
lily medicine it is invaluable, since it promptly
and completely remedies those ailments
which are of most frequent occurrence.
