HIS Commitments.
Philadelphia Press
BKLLEFoNTE, PENN, July 10 The fol.
lowing lsex-Gov. Curtin's letter OF retire.
ment TO his constituents:
"ilaving contemplated for some time
my retirement from congress at the ex-
piration Of my term, | now announce TO
the citizens OF the twelfth congressional
district that will not again be {. eandI.
date for reelection. | make this an
nouncement in answer to the many citi-
zens OF the district OF different political
parties who have written me asking that
again allow my name to be used
Inc Office OF member Of congress is
not sinecure. | am constantly pressed
with duties and engagements which try
70 iuinll, but In which ! have too often
laileu from the impossibility OF success.
Among those not the least onerous and
paihiul are the numerous applications for
onlclal positions where success is posi-.
Die under the most favorable circum.
stances only to very few. II has han.
| pened, also, that the claims for aid in
obtaining pensions made on me, not only
by surviving soldiers resident in Penn
sylvania, but by those who have left the
state, have added largely TO my labors. /
need not say that have responded
willingly to these calls from the men who
offered their lives for the preservation of
the government, and may be allowed to
add that my efforts In behalf of this most
deserving class OF our citizens, not only
In the bureau OF pensions, but In nv
place IN congress, aided sometimes by
my own personal knowledge and testi-
mony, have not been fruitless.
"And here desire to express especial-
ly my deep gratitude to the surviving SOL
diers OF the district, who, with remsrka-
bic unanimity, have earnestly and en-
Enthusiastically sustained me Their con-
hdence and friendship given TO me early
In the war have never been withdrawn,
and one of the most grateful reflections
Of my life is that | shall retain that con-
tdence and friendship until the end
Another very CRAFTY ing memory of
my public life in state and nation is that
have tried to deserve aud have received
In full measure the confidence and sup
port OF the industrial people of my district
and OF pennsylvania, and this is the more
gratifying because in every public
ana private act and utterance by which
have sought to advance the interests and
welfare Of our workingmen they have
been advised that onlyin the supremacy
oithe law and order, and by the mainten-
ance OF the rights of personal property,
can labor find its just security and re-
ward.
"Honored as | have been so often with
Important trusts during the last third of
century, / cannot close my withdrawal
from congressional life without again ex-
pressing my grateful sense of obligation
to the people of the district and state OF
my birth, among whom have always
lived, and by whom | have been sup
ported and sustained with consistency
and devotion which can never forget"

In THEIR SLEEP.
Eight Recorded Curious Freaks of som
nambulists.

| Eight Recorded Curiou hrohhb OF oom
nambulists.
A gentleman was discovered at /
O'Clock in the morning in neighbours
garden engaged in prayer, evidently under
the impression that he was in church, but
otherwise In deep sleep.
A young man CT whom Petrus writes,
used to get up In his sleep and climb on
to his castle battlements, seat himself
astride them, and then spur and whip the
wall under the impression that he was
mounted upon his steed.
DIR. Prltchard had patient who was
particularly fond Of horse exercise, and
used to rise at night, find his way TO the
stable, saddle his horse, enjoy a gRllop
and finally come back, knocking at his
own front door, in somnambulistic con-
dition.
DR.. Macnish Of Edinburgh gives an ac-
count OF an Irish gentleman who swan
more than two miles down a river, got
ashore and was subsequently discovered
sleeping by the roadside, altogether un-
conscious of the extraordinary feat he
had accomplished.
DR.. Haycock, the eminent Oxford d.
vine, would often rise from his bed at
night, give out his text, and, while sound
asleep, deliver an excellent sermon upon
it. He was frequently watched, but no
amount Of Juggling, pulling or pinching
ever succeeded In rousing him.
Prof. Elshnell of Basel writes OF a
young student Of Wurtemberg college,
who used TO play "hide and seek" while
fast asleep. His fellow-students knew of
his propensity and when he began "walk-
ing" threw holsters at him, which be al
ways eluded, jumping over bedsteads and
other obstacles placed in his way.
Moritz gave an instance of poor and
Illiterste basket-maker, who WAS unable
to read or write, yet in a state Of sleep
vigil he would preach fluent sermons,
which were afterwards recognized as
having formed portions Of the discourses
he was accustomed to hear in the parish
church as child more than forty years
before.
a young girl given to sleep-talking was
In the habit OF immitating the violin with
her lips, giving the preliminary tuning

gate, high arch Of evergreens on the
corner OF Broadway and Hudson, the
mayor, after the critr had silenced
the multitude, made proclamation,
welcoming all strangers to the city. The
proclamation was posted on both the
south and north gates. The Indians

conclusion OF the ceremony, pupils of the

Ladies' Picnic Attended by Alarming
Rssults-rhe Danger Lurked In tho
Lemon Sherbet,
CHARLESTON, Ill, July lG.-Yesterday
afternoon Mr.. L. II. Wiley and Mrs. t.
Il. Crebs of this city gave ladies' picnic
In grove at the residence OF Mrs. Whey,
which was attended by about seventy-hye
OF the leading ladies OF the city. A
brass band furnished the music, and ex
cept the members OF the band and
Messrs. Il. Il. Crebs and T.. II. Wiley
no gentlemen were present. Refresh
ments were served, aud among which be
ing Ice cream, lemon sherbert and water
melon. The assemblage passed the time
In dancing and other eDjoyments until
late In the evening, wen they went theiI
ways. Two or three hours later the band
was In the country serenadlng, and some
of the guests were at church, others al
home and going their several ways, when
almost every person was taken violently
i'll with symptoms of poisoning.
Physicians were called by messengers,
stating that this one or that one was at
the point OF death. One physician found
Mr.. Wyley's family were all stricken; at
r S. Hodgan's he found three down; at
Mrs Cages four were stricken. Mr.. and
Mrs. Crebs were alarmingly Ill. Mrs
Calvert, Mrs, Il. h. Cunningham, Mrs
Minton, Mrs. Stoddert, Mrs. j. IL.
Johnston and the members of the entire
band grew sick, and, in short, almost
every person who ate Of the good things
developed alarming symptoms. Up
to this evening the greater portion
of the sixty guests present
are up again. A.r. and Mrs. Crebs, Mr..
and Mrs. Wiley, Mrs j. II. Johnson, Mrs.
Calvert and several members OF the band
and others are yet confined to their beds
Although no serious results are antici-
pated there Is no means of ascersaining
where the poison was hidden, but the
general opinion is that the lemon sherbet
contained the deadly agent. As might be
expected the wholesale poisoning OF at
least sixty OF our leading ladies has pro
duced great excitement and rumors are
flying in every direction. Some OF the
sherbet has been preserved for examina-
ton. No blame is attached to any one.

THE DANGER OF KISSING.
Two Doctors Views on Topic of Human
Interest.
Medical Record.


Medical Record
The custom OF kissing has been con-
demned by the wise and frowned upon by
the religious, but has managed to thrive
despite it all, and is still loves great ar
tillery and best ally. Why tactile SEN.
satlons from limited lablal surface have
been found so very agreeable and why
they should have contributed so much TO
the poetry and pairing off of the human
race are questions quite worthy OF full
discussion. kissing, we are told, began
with the birds and reaches its most per-
feet evolution in man. 1t has long MIS-
tory, therefore, and may well be consid-
cred permanent feature in human soci-
ety--solacing griefs. increasing joys, pro-
noting wedding engagements and fur
nishng permanent source of inspiration
for the artist.
But an enemy to the kiss has appeared
In Washington, ID. G., in the person Of
DR.. Samuel S Adams, who devotes seven
columns of the Journal of the American
Medical Association to exposing the
Changers of kissing" Everything has
its dark side. The dark side of kissing,
as viewed by DR.. Adams, is both moral
and physical. Among women and be-
tween children and adults 1t has degen-
Grated into an insincere, unmeanlng and
commonplace salutation, when 1t should
be reserved only as an index Of
affectionate feeling. But the weight
OF the Doctors argument is ex-
pended in showing the possible evils
which come from the promiscuous kiss
ing of babies and children by adults
tuberculosis, diphtheria, infectious fe-
vers ALI are possible and actual results
OF kissing. A verltable instance is cited
in which the drum of the ear was rup-
tured by kiss applied to the external
auricular Gppendage. A kiss of such
suction force reminds one Of Benedict's,
which had "such clamorous smack that,
at parting, all the church did echo." AL
though we may not realize as he does the
widespread and endemic character of the
kissing habit in Washington, we can only
trust 1t will prove safe place for the in
ternational congress.

SAVED BY A CROSS.
The Thrilling Experience OF Clergyman
in South Africa.
Washinplnn Post

in South Africa.
Washington Post,
The Rev. Thomas Needham, the Baptist
evangelist, whose religious work in this
city is now exciting considerable atten-
ton among the Baptlsts, has had, accord.
ing to his ewn story, very remarkable
and interesting history. When he was
but ten years OF age he went to sea on
board an English vessel bound for
South America. The captain was very
brutal man and often ill-ireated the lad,
and the sailors, not slow to initiate
the example of their superior, also made
the boy an object OF al. manner Of petty
abuse.
One Of the seamen, Just before the ar
rival OF the vessel at her destination,
took young Needham and, tying him to a
mast, proceeded to tattoo the boys arms
and portion OF his body, the crew re-
garding the matter In the light OF joke
Arriving at South America, Needham was
placed on shore and deserted In the midst
OF a bowling wilderness. Left to roam
at will In the midst Of dangers, it was not
long before the boy was captured by a
band Of Patagonian Indians, tribe
which, according to the reverend gentle-
mans statement, had q custom OF serv-
ing up human flesh at state dinners.
This would certainly have been his fate
had not the Indians, on removing his
clothes, discovered the pictures on his
arms. One of the flgWres was cross.
This emblem Of the Christian religion
for these rude sayages had on one or two
occasions become intimately acquainted
with missionaries-so touched their saw
age hearts that they instantly deter
mined to spare his life. The scene must
have beeniyery Impres slye, for Mr.. Need
ham says he saw tears couising down the
cheeks Of his captors. After that the lad
was taken good care Of by the Patago-
nians-such good care, in fact, that for
nine years, although his efforts were
ceaseless, he was unable TO escape from
them. "They regarded me-" he says,
''as god" though perhaps they valued
him as work Of art. At any rate his so
journ among them was Of long duration,
and when he was able finally 10 return to
civilization II was as man ready TO
serve his Creator for the protection
Afforded him amid such peril.
