Dose OF Croton Oil.
ST. LOUIS, April ga special from
Benton, Mo-, to. the Post Dispatch states
that Rev. Benjamin Deenng Of St. Louis
has been for some days past holding a
series Of temperance revival meetings
which have been wonderfully successful.
Last night some one, as yet unknown,
placed in the pitcher Of water which the
revivalist had placed upon the desk from
which he was speaking, large quantity
OF croton oil. Several persons drank OF
the water before the service began and
became deathly sick, but not knowing
the cause Of their illness failed to warn
Deering not to drink from the pitcher.
The latter during his discourse drank a
glass of the water and was Immediately
taken sick. ALI who tasted of the water
are to-day in precarious condition. Two
saloon keepers have been arrested on
suspicion, and II is thought that they
poisoned the water in order to end the
services which were having such de-
pressing effect upon their business.

Vain Efforts of Several Men TO Steal
an UmbreIIa

In a little down town saloon more than
a dozen men tried to sneak an elegant
ivory handled umbrella which leaned
against, a white maple panel at the end of
the bar. Although several of the
men were evidently experts not one could
manage to secure it. Whenever the bar.
tender caught q gentlemen in the act, and
he managed to catch them all, he put up
glasses for himself and the dishonest pa
iron, for which the patron always paid.
STORMY weather outside" remarked a
well dressed man, catching sight of the UNI
brella and moving over toward it.
Another settler and lemon, and take
something YOURSELF" remarked the Gus
toner. cordially. Then hand slipped
down behind the pleasant gentleman's coat
tail and began cropping around. Pretty
soon it touched the panel and moved
cautiously across it's polished sur
face. 1t didn't find anything and the gen.
tleman who owned it stopped whistling
suddenly and grew red in the face. He
coughed violently and walked to the other
end of the bar to expectorate. On his way
back he glanced sharply at the panel and
saw leaning against it the ivory-handled
umbrella. The performance was repeated.
The stranger was beginning to show signs
of having an. epileptic fit, when the bar
tender leaned over and said, dryly:
Cant you get it?"
''Ahem, well-ah, you know-my UNI
brelIa-you see, gasped the gentleman.
Yes; it's a daisy, amt it? Jim, the
night bartender, put her there. He's got

panel Chicago News.
