statistics illustrative of the rapid growth in
wealth and population of the busy town of

population since 1880 is 800 and It's valuation
this year is $4,000. Mr.. Harrison Hume, of
Boston, native of Washington county, Me-
after some humorous remarks made few
practical suggestions that his hearers will do
well to heed. He advised the people of Aroos-
took to husband their resources, and enforced
this advice by reference to the waste of timber
i'll Washington county, which had been strip
ped of this great element of wealth. Speaking
of the overcrowdcd cities as fostering sores m
on the body polite he counselled the Young
men of AroOstook to remain upon the farms
as where one of those who 90 to the cities to
seek fame or fortune meets with success hum
dreds fail. In conclusion he advocated i'm
proved school facilities, so that it will not be
necessary to send the young men and women
away from home to receive an education The
other speakers simply eXtolled the Aroostook
region, of which they had had but glimpse,
and returned thanks for the cordial reception
given the party.

Wound Received in an Unknown Way.

Last night, at IL o'clock, some passers-by dis
covered a woman, apparently dead. lying in the
weeds on the vacant lot at the corner of Califor-
MIA and Pearl streets The patrol wagon was
called and the woman, apparently only help
lessly intoxicated, was taken to the Station
house, where she was recognized as
Kate Robbins, formerly Kate Tngle, disrepu-
table woman. She went into commissions,
and DR.. Hodges was called in to administer to
her. He noticed blood her dress, and on
making further examination he found bullet
wound in her left side, just below the lover rib.
The ball had passed upward, and on probing the
wound he found it below the shoulder blade.
The wound, he says, is not necessarily fatal
When she recovered from her commissions the
woman was still too drunk to give any account
of the affair, and professed to remember nothing
at all about it. She is eighteen years old, and
was married to Felix Robbins last June. They
have since lived on Kentucky avenue.
Her husband says he came home about dark.
and brought his wife new pair Of shoes. She
was drinking some then. and he laid down to
sleep an hour or so. On waking he found she
was gone, and thinking she had got into some
difficulty. went direct to the station house. The
police were unable to obtain any information as
to how the woman received the wound.

near Knightstown, has been losing his hogs by
disease supposed to be cholera. Last Satur-
day one was taken sick with all the symptoms of
this disease 1t was feverish refused to eat,
and in few hours was dead Mr.. Sheppard,
who is of practical turn of mind, and has long
believed that the disease known among agricult-
wrists cholera is nothing more or less than
parasites, trichine in the stomach of the hog,
held post-mortem examination. and his opinion
was substantiated by the finding with the
naked eye, of many of those parasites in the
second lining of the stomach He was so elated
that he came TO the city yerterday and laid the
matter of his discovery before Secretary Heron.
of the State Board of Agriculture. He was ad-
vised to place the stomach in the hands of some
physician for analysis, or at least closer exam
ination under a microscope, and this he will
probably do. Mr.. Sheppard also thinks he has
discovered preventive of these parasites, aid
hopes, with the aid of the State Board of Aeri-
culture, to be able, in the future, to give
his prescription TO the swine-raisers Of the
country
farmer from Hendricks county who was in

MEETING OF MINERS.
Good Results Of the Federation Formed Year
Ago-Yesterday's Unimportant Conference.

The executive board of the National Fedora
with several operators from Ohio, Indiana and
Illinois At the adjournment of the last meet
ing, few months ago, at Columbus, o., where
scale of prices was adopted, the board agreed to
meet the operators here on the event of the fed
eration's annual convention to take up such
questions as might come before the body.
However, there was nothing yesterday that the
board and operators felt like acting on, so they
gave an hour to an informal talk concerning uni
form hours of work and scale Of prices for the
next year. These questions will be submitted
to the annual convention Of miners in February
next.
John Mcbride, of Ohio, said that their feder-
alton formed here last September had been
fruitful of good results. 1.-THE results have been
much better" he continued, than I expected.
During the year we have had less trouble than
for years past Minor differences have occurred,
but nothing to imperil the. increasing good feel
ing we sought to establish between miners and
operators When we began our organization
some of the latter were hostile TO it, and tried to
get further and further away from the miners,
but one after another showed a disposition to
friendliness, until now the exceptions to this rule
are few. The principal difficulty has been in
western Pennsylvania, where. if any, the pres
