In gathering wild flowers, autumn leaves,
picnicing in the woods, we are more or less
exposed to danger from poisoning by ivy or
other wild vines and shrubs. The poison is
unuer certain circumstances readily absorbed
by the blood, and painful swellings or erup-
tions are caused. Such affections Hoods
Sarsaparilla readily cures, as it expels all
impurities from the blood. Even in cases
OF poisoning by Paris green, Hoods Sarsa-
parilla has been remarkably successful. 1t
should be kept constantly in the house for

THEATRICAL AND MUSICAL,

The Springfield musical world is repre-

combinations. Oliver F. Remsberg writes
concerning the Bennett and Moulton Opera

playing double bass, that he likes his posi-
ton and enjoys travelling very much. The

engaged for two weeks Of comic opera at

Encyclopedia Britannica.

Up to the present time in the history of
civilization the encyclopedia Britannica is
the ne plus ultra of literary and scholastic
achievement In science, in literature, in
art and in history, it has no peer and no
worthy competitor. Many of its articles
are whole treatises, and the whole work, be-
ing well indexed, is suitable both for ready
reference and consecutive reading. For ref
erence it is the supreme court of authority,
and from its pages there is no appeal. To
the individual, the family and the commu-
nifty, the very presence Of such lib.ary, in
itself, is eleyating and refining.

Persons who like TO hear of a mans
rising in the world will be pleased to hear
that Professor Hrtska, the Hungarian pian-
ist, whose playing created such furore in
this city last year, has been enabled TO set
himself up as professor of music in this
city. 1t will be remembered that when his
talent for piano playing was discovered in
this city he was working in an humble Oc-
cupation at Defenbach's livery stable. He
received legacy for considerable amount
some weeks ago from his home in Hun
gary, and this small fortune has enabled
him to do what he has long desired-estab-
lish himself in the musical possession. He
received an excellent education in Europe,
but through ignorance of the English Ian
guage he has been forced to follow many
uncongenial occupations since his advent
in this country.

A POLITICAL OPINION.

The political Judgment of Uncle Jimmy
johnson, p NJ, is just about as reliable as
that of any political student in Springfield,
and is considered just as safe to bet by.
Shortly after Senator Fassett's Eighth dis
trict letter was published in the Commercial
Gazette, Uncle Jimmy said to newspaper
man: Have you seen Fassett's figures on
Kennedy's probably majority in the Eighth
district" The scribe said he had. well"
said Uncle Jimmy, don't you think that
his figures will come pretty close to it? 1t
seems to me that they will come pretty
close to hitting the mark" Here are Fas-
sett's figures:
Outside of this county there will be but
little change between his vote and that of
Forakers year ago, so that General Ken
nedy can count safely on 1000 majority in
the district
Now don't deny that you said this, Uncle
Jimmy, for you said it; oh, you said it!

John p. Dolliver has been invited to
Springfield to address the republicans.
Dolliyer was in Springfield last year and
made very fine address. He became ia
nous in daY, and one speech made him
so. The speech was delivered during .he
Blaine campaign in Iowa, which is Mr..
Delivers native state, and where his home
now is. Dolliver has enjoyed local repu-
tatiOn is vigorous young republican, and
a sayer of bright things in his immediate
neighborhood, but his fame extended no
farther. One night ne rose at a republican
meeting and delivered his great speech.
The next day every one who had been at
failing the bright things it contained. The
editors all sent around for copies Of the
speech, and it was published verbatim in all
the prominent papers in Iowa. 1t was even
lines of one state. 1t leaped over the bor-
ders and made its appearance in the great
metropolitan republican newspapers of the
Middle and Eastern States. l remember
reading it with the greatest admiration in
the columns of the Cincinnati Commercial
Gazette. Dolliver became famous in a day.
His services were asked for by the state
committees of a dozen states, and every
word which fell from his lips was eagerly
seized and published by the press. Mr..
Blaine conveyed his high appreciation of
the merits of his speeches to Mr.. Dolliver,
and ii is probable that, had he been elected,
he would have given the young orator a
high position in the government. Mr.. Dol
campaign orator and his services are in
great demand everywhere. His style is
magnetic, nervous and convincing, and his
power to interest is very marked. In no
other country in the world could such an
example of a man, becoming famous in a
day, be furnished, as in the United States.
| Let a man say something striking and
worth listening to, and the millian-tongued
press sees to it that he becomes famous.
Dolliver is as full of bright and witty ideas
as kaleidoscope is full of colors. Listen to
this, for instance: A prohibition opponent
/ had been saying some very obnoxious things
about him. DolIiver determined to crush him
with a shaft of wit, and the next opportuni-
I ty he got ne said: Ladies and gentlemen.
This man is prohibition coupon on a
through democratic ticket, and worthless if
detached" 1t is needless to say that this
barbed arrow of wit settled the Knight of
the Pump effectually.

The Western Union Office with its Gus
tomary enterprise has discontinued the EN-
ployment or a night operator. 1t is con-
sequently impossible to send a dispatch
from the city after 10 o'clock, without
bothering the railroad operators to send it.
This is an almost incredible state of affairs
for city of $4,000 people, and in such an
important business centre as Springfield.
The arrangement is especially lnconyenient
for newspaper correspondents in sending
late reports of meetings etc. Travelling
men also complain very much of being un.
able to send their kilograms after 10 o'clock.
For many months there was an operator on
duty all night, but now that Springfield has
a few thousand more people he has been
taken of.

The other night, during the Mantell en-

scenes, some unromantic individual in the
back part of the house showed his disgust
of the sentimental expressions and love
making on the stage, by yawn which was
SO worId-weary anc sad in its expression OF
intense fatigue that the fashionable aud
ience was convulsed with laughter. and
some people Uttered for fully five minutes.
All looked around for the yawner, but he
gave no sign, and could not be
distinguished. The occurrance strikingly
reminded me of practical joke played in
a theater by Eugene Field, the great hui
morist of the Chicago Ne,os. Eugene had
the blues one night and thought he would
20 to the theater. He took seat far back
and wearily watched the performance. FL
nally joke was told which sent the audi
ence off in a roar. Field never smiled un-
iii the laugh had subsidized, but as soon as
the audience was perfectly qaiet he broke
into Wild, cackling laugh, ''Ha-he-ee, ha-
ha-he-he-he," which had so much imbecili-
ty and donkeyism in it. that the entire aud
fence turned from the stage with shouts of
laughter. They turned around but Fields
face was grave as sphinx. 1t happened
that there was huge Irishman just back of
him who had frey red hair and wide,
frInged dado of chin whiskers. At this
man Field looked with an air of horror.
The audience saw the object of his gaze
and Immediately concluded that the Offend
er was the poor Irishman. The man saw
the mistake but of course couldn't explain,
and was so bored that he left the theater,
followed shortly after by Field.

Of the re 'lroad offices on Limestone street,
never fail to watch with considerable cur
iosity spiral paste-board spring about two
inches in diameter which hangs directly
above a gas-jet, and which keeps constantly
turning like a windmill. The little device
was whitfield out Of psste-board by ingen-
ious Sam Stevens, of the /. B. & W. ticket

many convolutions out Of thick paper with
q pair of scissors. Then stick pin through

the shape Of spira, spring, and when
hung above gas-jet the ascending current
Of hot air caused by the latter, is sufficient
to turn it just as river turns water
wheel. At first sight the little device is
suggestive of perpetual motion, and it never
fails to attract the attention of all who visit

extremely pretty and ingenious ornament
for the office of sitting-room.

If the career of DR.. Van Snyder, late
proprietor of an anatomical museum on
west Main street, could be written, it
would probably make very respectable
romance. DR.. Van Snyder after leaving
the museum business drifted around this
city for some time, and finally concluded
an engagement with the Ferguson and
Slater Dramatic company for a position in
the company. He made his debut Monday
night at Blacks opera house, playing the
part of the policeman in the "Child
Stealer." He played remarkably well, and
though he has only been on trial for
week with the company, he will probably
be permanently retained. 1t is said that
he was once prominent actor in the stock
company in Woods theater in Cincinnati.
He i. a master of dialect and speaks sew
eral languages. 1t is said that his daugh-
tiers are the wives of prominent citizens in
Cincinnati 1t is seldom the case that
actors desert their profession for long.

The failure of Lynch, the shoe man,
made quite sensation in the business
world. Lynch made a wonderful sensa-
ton for his store in short time, and his
name will be famous for years on the board
fences for miles around. A laughable incl
dent in this connection occurred last week.
Mr.. Lynch had great way of advertising
himself as Lynch, The Shoe Man" One
of the geniuses who did some of his fence
advertising was short of commas or some
thing, as he left them out in good many
cases between Lynch" and The Shoe
Man. One of the creditors was driving
cut in the country last week, and came
across glaring sign:
LYNCH THE sHoEMAN."
He drew up his buggy in front Of it,
rubbed his eyes, looked at it again; then
taking off his hat he bowed towards the
sign, and said: II don't know who's the
author of that recommendation, but them's
my sentiments"
