Hints 20 Dyspeptics.

Suoooh o chtAhl HloboAAAcs
Much of the value obtained from
mutton depends upon its cooking and
previous tenderness. 1t should be kept
till tender, and the time will depend upon
the weather.
The tenderness of meat and its cooking
cause the ibres thereof to be more easily
broken up in the stomach it is thus di.
gested without delay. Beefsteak should
be most tender before being submitted TO
the process of cooking. II should always
be done-or rather underdone-over
clear FIRE of coal cinders or coke, which
liz better still.
The dyspeptic will 10 we'll to give
hashes aud stews wide berth, unless
they are exceptionally well cooked,
Now as to pork. For q man who is
in good health, and has the opportunity
of taking constant exercise in the open
air, this food is good and nutritious, but
the invalid and dyspeptic must beware
of it. Ham or bacon, with eggs, in the
morning, however, is tolerably easily
digested. So is pigs liver with bacon I;
and cold pigs cheek is good either as q
supper or breakfast dish to those in ordi-
nary health.
After pork comes veal in the scale of
indigestibility, 80 that, on the whole, my
best advice to the dyspeptic is to leave
both alone, with the exception of irizzled
thinly- cut bacon as relish in the morn
ing
Sweetbreads, whether calves orsheep's,
are very nutritious and assists in the
digestion of other foods.
On the whole the health-seeker will do

OK, in moderate quantities, his staple, SO
far as albuminoid food is concerned, but
he must vary this constantly with chicken,
game, and fish when in season.
He will hardly need to be told that
beef and mutton, when good and properly
cooked, give him life and energy, and
therefore comfort, and to great degree
happiness; but must remind him that an
undue proportion Of animal food renders
him more liable to infammatory troubles,
whether acute or chronic and again, il
subject to rheumatism or other blood
complaint, he must be cautious in the use
Of such viands.

DETROIT, MICH, Dec. I4.--When Police
Justice Miner called the case Of John w.
Clark, charged with petit larceny, yester-
day, he was informed that the complaint
in this case had been withdrawn and the
cause was thereupon stricken from the
docket.
This was ellthat appeared on the record
and few Of the usual moteiy crowd pre-
sent knew anything of the history of the
case or the romantic and honorable
career Of the defendant, IL appears
from his friends statement that Clark, Ia
or has been, for some time past klepto-
maniac. Some days ago he went into
news stand and was caught with papers
in his pocket which he had
not paid for. The dealer would listen to
no arguments and Clark was arrested,
The prisoner was one of the two men
seut from the United States in 1870 TO es-
sahlish in Japan postal service. At the
time Of his selection for this mission he
was in the mail service in California and
prior to that he had been Indian agent
for the Pinte tribe in Nevada,
during which time he had disbursed
without suspicion over SiO0u0O. He
had charge Of the interior postal service
| IN Japan fer six years, during which time
post-ofiice buildings were erected at Yoke
hama, Osaka, Nagasaki and other prin-
cipal places in that country and q railway
mail service was established similar TO
that in the United States, except there
was no distribution on the train. On
his return to this country In 1888
Mr.. CLARK was appointed by President
Arthur Indian agent in Arizona, having
charge of over 5000 red men of different
tribes. He retained this place until re-
lieved by President Cleveland and then
came to Detroit. There was no fault to
be found with his accounts, although
during this agency he had handled
$30o,010 Of government money.
Clark's many friends here were aston.
ished at his arrest for theft, and aocked
to his aid. He spent one night in the
station-house, but was baiied out the
next day. When the case was explained
to the newsdealer he allowed it to drop

The people Of Wicomico and Somerset
counties are being stirred up by recent
Judicial decision in reference to longing
for oysters in the Patuxent river, which
separates Calvert and ST. Mary's counties,
giving to the citizens of each OF the latter
named counties the privilege of longing
from shore to shore. The Wicomico sep
arates Somerset and Wicomico counties,
placing them in the same relation to each
other as st. Mary's and Calvert.
Hitherto, for oystering purposes, the
Wicomico has been considered as
divided by the channel and the
tongers of each county have been con-
fined to the water of their respective
counties, an arrangement very much to
the benefit of the Wicomico county oyster
men since all the good oyster rocks arc
found on their side of the river. Since
the decision of Judge Stone, the Somer-
set oystermen who have SO long looked
on with envious eyes while their northern
neighbors were hauling in the fat
bivalvos, have come to the conclusion that
what is good law for the western
mus - equEliy good law fol
the Eastern Shore. To clinch the matte
they communicated with JUdgn Stone
who replied that he knew no "a no

tongers came together, pooled Their issue
and agreed that one Of their humble

to make test case. If arrest and prose

Father McGlynn's liberal views are

Father McGlynn refused to establish

ST. LOUIS, Dec. 14.--The Globe Demo

is from Hannibal, Mo-, in bee line

The facts as learned are as follows.
When the Chicago, Burlington a. Quincy
road acquired the Hannibal a. st. Joe,
three years ago, it was agreed that the
Missouri Pacific and the Chicago, Bur
lington & Quincy roads should not build
into one another's territory. In the past
year or more the Quincy people have not
held to their agreement and have built
down into what Mr.. Gould regarded as
his territory and ever since doing so they
have anticipated retaliatory action. Now
it is about coming. If Mr.. Gould should
carry out his plan the extension will,
