Cough Stricken Down.
SEIZED WITH APoxLExY IN THE MIDST OF
ONE OF Hrs POPULAR LECTURES IN
FRANKFoRD CHURCH.

John B. Cough, the world-renowned tenn
perance orator, was stricken with apoplexy
| while lecturing in the First Presbyterian
church, Frankford, Monday night His entire
right side is paralyzed. :,
The announ cement that Mr.. Cough would
| lecture drew an enormous crowd to the
church. Every seat was occupied long before
8 o'clock At that hour Rev. Thomas Muir.
ply, d. D, pastor of the church, appeared
with Mr.. Cough, whom he introduced as hav'
ing been forty-years on the lecture platform.
ale has travelled" he said, "over 500, DOC
miles, and has lectured over 5000 times"
| Mr.. Cough appeared in his usual vigorous
health. He walked forward with his wonted
erect and impressive bearing, and at once
entered upon his subject peculiar People"
was his theme, and be spoke with his usual
fuencv and effect for about twenty minutes.
Then it was noticed that the lecturers flow
of words was hindered, and he seemed to have
lost command of himself to a certain degree.
Still he proceeded, and related an anecdote
about two authors he had known, supplement-
ing it by saying that every man was an author
and made daily written record upon
the page of life and perhaps eternity could
not efface it. ~" said Mr.. Cough, "havs
seven years in the record of my own life
when was held in the iron grasp OF intern
perance would give the world to blot it
out; but, alas, / can not" Stepping for
ward with impressive gesture, the lecturer
said, Therefore. young man, make your
record"
He failed to finish the sentence. Some
sudden shock seemed to have paralyzed his
tongue and broke him completely down. He
staggered as If about to fall, when Mr.. Muir
ply hurried across and supported him to a
sofa. Medical assistance was in the audi
ence and an examination of the suffering
mans condition was made by several physi-
clans. The pastor of the church announced
to the wondering audience that Mr.. Cough
had been stricken with sudden illness and
would be unable to complete his lecture, then
he dismissed them and they quietly dispersed.
Mr. Cough was removed TO the house. two
doors below. of DR.. r Bruce Burns, whose
guest he was, and where he will receive eve
~ care. His brother, Henry, was telegraphed
to at Worcester, Mass, his home. At
o'clock last night Mr.. Cough was resting very
quietly. He was conscious and knew all
that was going on about him, but the super
vening paralysis had so affected his tongue
that he was unable to articulate distinctly.
clot formed BY ruprured blood-vessel
rests on the left side of his brain, affecting, as
the nerves cross, his right side. DR.. Burns
could express nt opinion as to the result last
night. Mr.. Coughs stroke was serious
one, and his advanced age makes his condi-
ton very critical and gives rise TO serious
forebodings.

nv wife was seventy three years old she was
troubled with very bad cough, and it looked
as if she would die with consumption. She
would not call in doctor, but commenced
taking Brandreth's Pills. two and three every
