First Blood In Chicago.

Monday the Sd inst was exciting in Chi
cago. In additi to the ordinary pr oces-
sion OF strike rs, marching from place to
place, some 5000 men-lumber showers,
planing mill hands and factory men-held
n mass meeting on the prairie at Robrist
and the "black road" The meeting was
addressed by socialists who had the mat
ter entirely in their own hands. One Ger
man speaker particularly inhamed his
hearers. He said:

never do you any good. Join the Central

With revolver in one hand and your knife
in the other, and bombs in your pocket,
march on to revolution and freedom.
Every workingman must p arve together,
and stand together, and fight together for
his rights.
After listening to theharangue the crowd
began to throw stones at the surrounding
buildings. Then, as if moved by one spirit,

was about $50 o'clock when the crowd ar

precautions, the now frantic men attacked
the building with stones that lined the rail

The mob had it's own way for a long time.
The Mccormick crowd retreated within
the gates but one of their number who was
left behind fell into the hands of the as
sailants and was nearly beaten to death.
The attacking party now entered the gates
and pelted the windows and walls OF the

fifty, began firing in earnest and the mob
began to scatter. They ran in all direc-
lions for two or three blocks. and then
turned and threateningly regarded the sit

rioters were wounded and several police

The Marriage Service Amended,
ErOm the Boston Ira yallar

GAOuA VIC DOStOu 4iaEelleF.
An Episcopal clergyman, settled in
one OF the manufacturing towns in
Southeastern Massachusetts,, not long
ago was entertaining some callers in
the parlor one evening when there
came a ring OF the door bell The
servant announced that lady and
gentleman wished to see the clergyman.
Excusing himself to the company, the
clergyman entered his study and
found awaiting him a man and
woman, evidently about 25 or. 80
years OF age, whose appearance and
accent at once betrayed them to be
foreigners. The couple said that they
were natives ofSweden and had sought
the minister, wishing to be married.
By inquiry the clergyman soon found
out that the couple knew but very
little about the Episcopal marriage
service, or, for that matter, much
about the English language. The Rev.
Mr.. A. explained the service to the
happy pair so that he thought they
understood it, expatiating especially
on the words 81, A., take thee, B., to
be my welded wife," &c. "And," said
the clergyman, remember, when we
come to that place you must say the
words after me. The couple then
went into the parlor, the clergyman
thinking that the company might act
as witnesses. The service proceeded
smoothly and with all it's solemnity
until the betrothal was reached. The
clergyman said very seriously, I,
Gustavus, take thee, Gretchen, to be
my welded wife" when up spoke the
groom, and in a most emphatic man.
ner exclaimed CATER me-" This
answer broke in upon the solemnity
OF the occasion, but the couple went
away unconscious that they had said
anything unusual.

Mr.. Davis trip from Atlanta to Savannah
was a continuous ovation. At every
station crowds collected and wherever the
train stopped Mr.. Davis was called for and
was obliged either to bow or speak. The
enthusiasm everywhere was unbounded.
At Macon, Ga, from the balcony OF the
depothe said:
gentlemen: This visit to Macon brings
around which cling mem cries OF the closing

OF the Confederacy. When the struggle
ended and when my wife and sick infant
sought refuge, it was here that the grand
old man, Howell Cobb, received my wife,
who was disconsolate and perse cuted-per-
secuted because she was the wife Of one
who tried to do his duty by his country
men. 1t was here also that one good Yam
kee allowed us to come to Macon and gave
US quarters. That sick infant has grown
into tall woman.
Here Miss Winnie came forward and re-
ceived shout OF applause With his arm
around her, Mr.. Davis continued:
This is my daughter the child OF the Con-
federacy, as she was born in the last year
OF the war, and she exults in the fact that
she was born in the Southern Confederacy

A Fascinating Stranger.

Washington Letter in Chicago Inter Ocean
There has been a good deal of sup
pressed excitement at one of the fash
ionable hotels recently. EARLY in the
month fne-looking gentleman OF
middle age, accompanied by hand
some and richly dressed lady, arrived,
registered, and settled down to enjoy
Washington society. They were SUCH
nice-looking and well-bred people that
everybody in the house was glad to
make their acquaintance. They ap-
peared to be rich and lavish in their
extravaganza. Scarcely day passed
but the madam wanted some of the
ladies to ride, and when they were not
going out to a reception or the theatre
with the most reputable guests in the
house, they were having card party
or supper in their rooms. The
couple had not been in the house a
week before they knew everybody, and
everybody not only knew them, but
unanimously voted them a most valu-
able acquisition tosociety. The mad
am gave a gorgeous dinner, the finest
winter, and it could not have been
surpassed. Each lady, as usual, re-
celved corsage bouquet, and, to the
surprise and delight OF all, each was
accompanied by handsome pin to
fasten it on-pins ofreal gold and real
jewels worth from $25 to $50. They
were nothing, however, the madam
said. but the souvenirs of the occasion
scarcely worth mentioning, but
those who got them were gratifed,
while those who did not were not.
The gentleman was considered sort
of Monte Cristo in a small way so law
ish was he in his OUTLAWS and the mys-
terry of his origin made him more than
ever an object of interest. Nobody
knew where he came from, all the new
ly made friends could say that he had
mines or was a speculator or was in
some other business that paid well,
they could not say exactly what, but
they soon discovered. Not long ago
dreadful policeman came and took
Mr.. Monte Christie to the station
house, and he was called up before
Judge Smell to answer to the charge
OF being a common swindler. The de-
tectives say that he has played this
game in Chicago and Milwaukee and
many other cities very successfully,
and that he is about $4,000 ahead
in his operations here. His well-bred
wife is said to be most skillful oper-
ator, and throws dust in the eyes of
the people he is working. This time
it was gold dust and corsage pins and
dinners.

Debate in a School Lyceum.

The editors Drawer in Harper's
Monthly is prolific OF good stories.
Here is a laughable thing in the latest
issue:
A western correspondent sends the
following: ! recently listened to de-
bate in one of the school lyceums of
this city upon the novel and moment
GUS question of "woman suffrage"
The debater upon the "anti-woman"
side was doubtless engaged in his first
effort, and this fact, together with a
slight impediment ofspeech and most
original series Of arguments, combined
to produce one of the funniest and
most unanswerable speeches that I
had ever heard. Here it is, almost in
full:
"Ladies and gentlemen, the first
thing to find out is w-w-what man was
made for, and what w-w-woman was
made for. God created Adam first,
and put him in the garden of Eden.
T-then he made Eve, and p-put her
there too. If he hadn't c-c-created
Eve, there never would have been all the
s-s-sin there is now in this w-world.
If he hadn't made Eve, she never would
have p-p-picked the apple and eaten
it. N-n-no, she never would have
picked it and g-givenit to Adam to eat.
Paul in his epistles says w-w-women
should k-k-keep still. And besides,
l-ladies and gentlemen, women couldn't
fill the Offices. I DID, defy any one to
p-point out woman in this city or
c-county that could be sheriff.
Would q woman t-turn out in the
dead OF night to track and arrest a
m m-murderer? say n-no! Ten to
one she would elope w-w-with him!'
And amid thunders OF applause and
laughter the gallant defender of mans
rights triumphantly took his seat.

Self-Poisoning.
From the Youths Companion.

Our readers are familiar with the
fact that, in Bright's disease, the kid
neys are unable fully to remove their
allotted portion of the waste matter
Of the system. Hence this accumu-
lates in the blood as a hurtful and Oft
en- as fatal poison, the heart, lungs
or brain at length giving way under its
influence.
Still more familiar are they with
that uncomfortable and depressed
condition, popularity known as bill
lousness, due to a partial failure in
the normal action of the stomach, liv-
er and bowels. In both these cases
the body is, to a greater or less extent,
self-poisoned.
Thirty years ago it was discovered
that decomposing animal substance
developes a violent poison. Twenty
years later the poisonous principle
was isolated, crystalized, and name
given it-ptomaine. In 1870 Gautier
discovered a somewhat similar poison
in the muscular juice OF healthy ami
mails, and also in their urine. Later
it has been extracted from facial mat
ter.
All of these are poisonous in high
degree. Some resemble the venom of
the most poisonous serpents. That
obtained from healthy muscle, when
injected in minute quantity into the
veins of a dog, produced stupor,
trembling, universal spasms, slow
respiration, and death in forty-five
minutes.
In 1881 DR.. Gautier found that such
poisons constantly appear in the ex-
cretions OF living and healthy animals,
and even in the saliva. The term leu
comaine was adopted as the name OF
such as are developed within the living
body. They are believed to be nor,
NAL products OF bodily waste, as much
so as carbonic acid, urea, etc. Accord
ing to Gautier, they accumulate in
the blood when for various reasons
the skin, the kidneys and the digestive
tract fail to eliminate them.
In q state OF health we resist inces-
SAINT self-poisoning, not only by elm
nation ofthe poisonous principle, but
especially by its combustion in the
body. Says the Boston Medical and
Surgical Journal
"The greater part OF these poisons
are very oxidizable, and it is by the
vivifying influence OF constantly re,
newed supplies OF oxygen in the nor
NAL state, that they are burnedin the
blood, perhaps, also, in the tissues,
and disappear. But let any cause
whatever diminish the access OF air to
the blood, or let the quantity OF ham.
oglobin THAT portion OF the red
blood corpuscle which has such an al
tinity for oxygen -"diminish-as in
chlorosis" (green sickness) "and ana.
mia, and there will soon be an accum-
lation of azotised substances of the
nature OF ptomaines and leuco'
maines."
Hence the benefit to be obtained
from whatever can excite the functions
OF the skin, the kidneys and the in
testines, and especially from whatever
energies respiration and the making
Of good blood.

in April the bonded debt decreas-
ed $10,3l5,700, and since July

difference between the reduction in the
bonded debt and that reported by the
treasurer is made up by reduction in out.
standing certificates and other non-inter-
est bearing obligations. Since April there
has been decrease in outstanding gold
certificates of $4,000 lS, and an increase
in silver certificates of $61072O. The
amount OF the former now outstanding is

In fractional silver and minor coin there

increase OF only $4,000. The avail.
able cash balance is reported as being

exceptional, considering that nearly ST.

balance would be S2l3, 400, 1853. The re-
