the meeting of the Clinical Society Of the New

assure many nervous people that the present
cry of mad dog" is all nonsense. Each OF the
speakers admitted that there was such disease
as hydrophobia, and all agreed that not enough
authenticated cases were on record TO justify
any ono IN saying what the symptoms OF the
genuine sickness are; but one thing was sure

decantcr Of whskcy from his side of the bar,
placed 1t before me, drew the stopper, and then
turned his back on me, with tho evident intention
of freeing me from any embarrassment touching

of an act of courtesy which matches If it does not

CORRESPONDENCE.


April 9th, 1886.
DEAR COMET On yesterday morn
ing about 4 o'clock, a. M, cur citizens
were aroused by the alarming cry Of
"FireW "Firel" and the whole city
was illuminated by the burning of Mr..
w. S. Hamilton's residence, which in
short time was reduced to ashes.
This is the second casualty OF the
kind that Mr.. Hamilton has suffered
within the short period OF year and
doubtless some villainous enemy has
taken this means OF avenging some
real or imaginary wrong. If the in
cendiary could be caught swift justice
without judge or jury, would very
probably be melted to him. Our COM
munity sympathizes with Mr.. Hamil-
ton in his loss.
l saw in your last issue that the
Hen. w. P. Brownlow had withdrawn
from the race for nomination by the
Republicans of this district for Con-
gress so that my surmises in regard
to the Hon. Mr.. Pettibone's success in
that respect have been realized to a
certain extent, his chances for said
nomination improved, and I still be-
lieve that he will yet secure that NOM
nation, though the Hon. R. R. But
Ter is working like a beaver and en-
tertains strong hopes of success.

The Third Avenue Strike.

NEW YORK, April 27.-The Third
avenue railroad officials seem to be
growing more and more determined in
the stand they have taken against the
strikers. President Lyon said this af-
ternoont that conferences with the strik-
ers executive committee were at an
end so far as he was concerned. He
would resign his position rather than
take part in such conferences, if the di-
rectors should insist upon it. He said
he would ask the directors
for permission to issue a card
announcing that none of the strikers
would be taken back after a certain
day, The strikers say that they will
run out stages tomorrow in opposition
to the company if the latter do no
give in.
