Then it located itself in the brain and

several doctors as cerebral rheumatism,
DR.. McSlanus, Of Baltimore, who was fur.

that it is one Of cerebral and spinal con-
gestiop, and that it is very intricate and
interesting case. During June, July and
August the patient did not sleep during
the night, but slept from 9 4. u. to 5 P. n.
daily. About the last OF August, 1854,
she went into 6 comatose state, and could

FATAL FIRE,

Two Men Barned to Death and $4,000
Worth of Property Licked Up.
BELrAsr, Ne. July 1.-THE greatest
conaagratiou since 1878, when one.fourth
OF the city was laid in ashes, visited this
place this morning, resulting in the death
Of two persons and damage to property
about $50, 600. The fire broke out shortly
after 10 o'clock in the stables of the Bel
last Livery Company on High street and
before assistance could arrive twenty
horses in the building were literally roast.
ed alive in their stalls. .
The flames communicated with the
Howes block, corner OF Main and High
streets,' known as the telegraph building,
which was entirely destroyed. The base
ment was occupied by Field K Carter.
fish market; the frst floor was occupied
by William Priest, tailor; F. II. Francis,
boots and shoes, and 7. u. Fogg, coniec-.
toner. The second floor was occupied by
Nathanial Daniels. barber; Moses Rich,
cobbler, and ". c. Tuttle, dealer in organs.
The building was insured but the ten
ants are heavy losers. The American
House, the leading hotel OF the city;;ne
succumbed 10 the deyouriug elements.
The guests all escaped with ,llei. baggage.
The carriage house belonging to the l:v-
cry company, and the hecarriage shop owned
by n. Mansfield, were totally destroyed.
The company saved their carriages. The
flames crossed High street, igni;ing the
roof OF Whitmore's store and threatening
the New England House and Masonic
Temple, but fortunately the hre was
checked in this direction.
Two men perished in the stable OF the
livery company. Their names were
Wesley Twombley and John Casey.
Twombley's charred body was found on
the sidewalk as though it had fallen from
the building. He was employed as a
hack driver By the New En- gland House.
Casey's body YVES found in stall besides
tho remains OF a horse. Txombley and
Casey and companion named James
McCabe, drove to Northport on Saturday
evening. returning about midnight They
were intoxicated. Shortly after they
entered the stables the fire was discovered
and without doubt they were the cause.
McCabe escaped from the building with
his hands and face badly burned. Charles
Baker, Chief Engineer, was badly burned
in the face while fighting the fire.

GORDON DEAD.

The little hope thatexisted that Gene
ralGordon had been spared by the Arabs,
and might be rescued by his country
men, has now departed, those who saw
him stabbed and killed telling of the
deed. The murder of that brave soldier
Will prove most disastrous affair for
the Mahdi and his fanatical followers
who will be made to suffer terribly for
this and other cruel deeds. Whatever
might have been the disposition of the
British government regarding a con-
tinuance of the war, and especially TO
the point of retaliation, it cannot now
desist; it cannot stop short of subject
ing the False Prophet to complete sub
mission. Patriotism and public senti.
ment will compel the government IN
act, and act with premptness and de-
termination. The timidity and soft
heartedness of Gladstone cannot longer
stand in the way of British triumph in
the Soudan. In one respect the killing
of Gordon and the awful massacre
of his followers in Kartoum will
have good effect, for they will lead to
the abandonment of the hesitating
half-hearted policy that has proven so
disastrous to the English in their
Egyptian business. Gladstone NAV
have TO stand aside and let Others
lead the procession, and it is probably |
well that he should get out of the way
for great and good as he is, he seems
unable to keep with the crowd. Great
Britain should aspire to nothing beyond
her own domain, or she should give
Gladstone no voice in the direction of
affairs. Away from home he has ever
been weak, halting, vacillating and
'imid, and without vigorous foreign
policy England must retrograde.
Until Khartoum has been retaken and
u Mahdi killed or reduced to the posi-
ion of supplicant for mercy there
viii be lively times in England, activity
throughout Egypt and anxiety every {
where.

THE GREAT question in Washington
seems to be what to do to besaved. The
other day, chief clerk in one of the
Departments, with a salary of $500,
voluntarily dropped down to a 81 800
clerkship, which latter he expects to
hold through Cleveland's administra-
ton. Under the civil service acta chief
clerk may be removed summarily, but
a $1,000 clerk can only be dismissed for
cause. The most popular dodge in the
struggle to hold on is a change of heart
politically. All the clerks who have not
been extensively pronounced in their
Repnblicanisiil, are said to be good
Democrats and many of them express
surprise when anyone suggests that they
were ever Republicans. The effort to OBJ
tain place is also quite as determined as
the struggle to hold on. The following
are advertisements cut from Washing
ton papers.

animation, l will give $50 to any person

THE SCANDAL of the Greedy expedition
has been revived agoin by the publica-
ton of extracts from the lamented
Kislingsbury's diary. These are ugly
reflections upon the commander of the
expedition. 1t must be a bad heart
which persists in bringing to the surface
these matters which should remain
buried with the unfortrn nate dead. In
no way can good come from them, and
they are only brought out through
malice or revenge. The dead cannot
make good the accusations, and the
living can only half defend against the
assaults. 1t is admitted by all that the ex-
petition was badly conceived, and worse
Ethat there was lamentable
lack of harmony among the men and
between the officers, and that the first
relief effort was so conducted as to be
largely responsible for the disaster
which overlook Greedy and his little
These seem to be facts, and
the less said of them the better; while
It is cruel to say anything Of. the personal
iealousies and disputes.

The REAL name of Ell Mahdi is Mo-
manned Achmed, and his father, a
petty sheik, intended that he should be
fakir, or beggar priest. When the boy
came of age, and was his own master,
he improved upon his fathers inten-
tons, and concluded to go into the pro-
phet business. After leading retired
life on an island in the Nile for some
years, he blossomed out as full-blown
prophet, and so far has been one of the
most successful since Mahomet. His
latest achievement, however, bids fair
to work his speedy downfall, if it does
not soon lead to the putting of his pro-
phetic soul to fight. i,. 4

JUDGE FRANK T1LFoRp.

Our old hme citizen, Judge Frank
Tilford, has finally been indicated and
established in his rights as city
attorney of Denver In 1888 the Judge
was elected, and at the proper time
made demand upon theincumbent for
the office, but the latter, one Carpenter.
at present Senator in the Legislature
refused to surrender, claiming some
irregularity about the election, Tilford
thereupon resorted to the court for an
order to install him. The tribunal to
which ne applied decided in his favor
but still Carpenter refused to surrender,
appealing to the Supreme Court, which
on Saturday last sustained the decision
of the lower court, awarding the office
to Tilford. The HEEALD is pleased 5y
the outcome of the contest, as Judge
Tlford has been severely, even brutaIiy |
abused by some of the Denver |
papers, on account cot the
persistence and determination or his
part to get the Office. The Surfesne
Court decision must be accepted as his
complete vindication. The taxpayers
of Denver should feel that they have
have had enough Of Carpenter who
has drawn the salary. and there is little
hope that the amour can be recovered
from him. Besides, the city has been
to pay the expense of the
long litigation. Tilford, of course, will
now draw the pay for the time that he
mas been wrongfully kept out Of the
l1fice. u

IT is said to be the intention to hold
the grand jury until April, when the
next term of the court will
begin. If the iDquisitors are
duly diligent and industrious,
they should be able to make attorneys
and marshals all rich from fees. There
will be no need for another grand jury
during the year, unless the chief justice
calls in his associates to assist him, and
keeps three mills grinding instead of
one.

Substitute for carbolio Acid.
Boston Transcript


The extraordinary power Of napthol as an
antiseptic and disinfecting agent has been
known for long time, but its disagreeable
smell and the difficulty of preparing 1t in a
purified state, with the occasional toxic ac-
ton of the crude napthol, have been bar to
its use as remedial and antiseptic agent
Justus Wolff chemist interested In coal
tar products, has recently succeeded in pro-
ducing it in pure and odorlsss state in we'll
defined crystals, and claims its antiseptical
action is much greater than that of carbolic
acid. Recent research has demonstrated
that the toxic effects Of crude napthol were
due to the impurities 1t contained.
DR.. Shoemaker OF Philadelphia, In a paper
read before the Philadelphia County Medi-
cal association on the Medical Use and
Value Of Napthol, conclusively proved the
non-poisonous character of the purified or
odorless napthol by taking large doses in
ternally II has no corrosive action ON the
skin and will not injuro textile fabrics. AS
a remedial agent 1t acts with greater effici-
ency, and has many advantages over car
bolic acid; the fact Of its being absolutely
odorless will make ii desirable substitute.
1t is expected that IL will shortly be pro-
duced ON manufacturing scale Us a substi-
tute for carbolic acid.

Easy carriages are luxury and street
cars are great convenience, but the grow
ing use of them Is driving the people Of our
great cities out Of the habit Of walking and
consequently into conditions of physical
weakness. Almost everybody in tho cities
ridea The wealthy merchant comes to his
Office in his easy carriage. his best paid
clerks roll up in cabs, and the common
herd" Of his employees comes in street cars.
All ride. and all are forgetting, II they over
knew, how to walk.
Go through the day with the ordinary
desk-clerk, the representative Of thousands
Of lives in every city, and see how little he
walks. In tho morning he manages ia
walk from his bed to the breakfast table,
and from the table to the street car track.
Sometimes, II he is feeling very strong he
even carries cane or an umbrella from
the front hall to the street Seated In the
street car, he rides to his Office door and
once more walks couple Of rods. II he has
to go to an upper floor he sits In the eleva-
tor. Then until lunch time he sits stopped
over his desk. Then, IL all conditions are
favorable, he sometimes walks--.for he has
not yet utterly forgotten how to walk to q
restaurant in the next block and back tc
his desk. where he sits until street car
takes him home. II he goes out in the
evening 1t is in a carriage with his young
lady or in the street car with his family.
