BOULANGER AGAIN.
He Has Finally Decided That Dignity Il
More Impressive Than Turbulence
and VIII Act Acco rdingly.

LONDON, Oct. 1.-THE reasseInbling of tha
chamber of deputies brings Gen. Boulanger
again prominently before the French repub
lie. Ills appearance in his seat with the re-
Endorsement of his constituents made him
the object of general attention, and his ST.
lence' ON the subject of revision of the consti-
tution when the governments bill was intro
duced caused some surprise, in view of the
fact that all of his political campaigns have
been conducted upon platform demanding
precisely this thing, though without the saw
ing clauses which Premier Floquet embodied
in his bill to prolong the ministerial career of
himself and his colleagues
The fact that Gen. Boulanger took no part
in the brief discussion upon the matter OF re-
ferring the bill, coupled with his recent seclu-
sion, Is generally accepted, however, as evi-
dence that he has learned wisdom from ex-
perienee, and will, for time at least, substi-
tute policy of dignifed reticence for the
noisy and pyrotechnical one upon which he
began his political career, and which resulted
i'll complete failure.
Boulanger is no doubt by this time aware
that he cannot hope to ride into power as
legislator upon q wave of turbulence, and
also convinced that his efforts to achieve his
restoration to active military service by abet-
tiiS OGooloe1 Oli VIC puiOOA II hAcliuS VIII &c
fruitless. In order to accomplish either he
must invite rather than repel the confidence
of the stable men of France, and this it is be-
ieved he is resolved to do.
The enormous majorities by which he was
returned to the chamber stamp him as the
unquestionable representative Of the voters
of the department he has chosen to sit for,
and this fact is of itself sufficient to insure his
Importance as a member of the body. aside
from hls personal popularity and military
prestige. He already has many stanch and
valuable adherents among his colleagues, and
it remains solely with himself whether he
will add to their number sufficiently to be-
come the leader of great party, or diminish
them until his influence shall be comprised in
his individual vote

The following statement is furnished the

when the men at the Kroger street barn
found the new men were to take out the cars
a small riot took place. When the cars start
ed off the old employees followed them and
assaulted three of the drivers, injuring one
quite severely. Application was made by
the company to the police department, and a

car barns everything was quiet
After getting through with the consulta-
tion and making the arrangement with Mr..
Yerkes, the committee went to the strikers
hall and there reported that they had secured
an advance in wages, and that all the old meE
were to be taken back This created great
enthusiasm, but the fact has developed that.
while all the men, with the exception Of these
engaged in rioting, returned to the employ
of the company, the new men who
were engaged during the strike and
who run quite number of cars are
kept in the places of the old men. As these new

Alcohol And DipntE1eria,

Alcohol, we make bold to say is
the prince of antiseptics, and the
most perfect and reliable medicine OF
which we have any knowledge in d1ph-
iberia. Diluted with equal parts OF
water and given in small and repeated
doses, the malignant symptoms OF
this most fatal malady soon dis
appear, and convalescence becomes
assured. 1t is interesting to note
with what facility the alcohol dis.
solves the diphtheretic emulation in
the throat, lowers the temperature
and cal1us the pulse, showing its de-
structlve action upon the germs OF
the disease, which have beer. absorbed
by the glands and gained access to
the blood, This remedy has been
used by us in the treatment of diph-
liberia since 1878, during which time
no case Of the disease has slipped
through our hands except in one soil
tary instance, and that case was in
artlculO mOrtls before the remedy was
given. The remedy is also prophy.
Tactic to the disease, as wehave found
IN many instances where it has been
eSpedlent to quarantine the patient.
For this purpose, it is only necessary
for exposed persons to use the remedy,
diluted as above stated, as a gargle
and to swallow q little OF it three or
four times a day.-Medical Times.

An Unexpected Aliy.

Says an Ohio contemporary 'The
fact that Mack Morgan, the colored
man at springdale, who lost both legs
in the war, walks around on two peg
legs, was the cause OF nelghbor hav-
ing a good fright some time ago. Nor
gan's legs are not fastened onto the
stumps of his legs very securely. Some
time ago he was riding along the road
in a wagon. He met a. man named
Vaudeville, with whom he had some
trouble. The quarrel was renewed
and hot words passed between them.
Vaudeville, in his anger, went to Nor
gan's wagon, and, grabbing him by
the ankles, began to pull him out OF
the vehicle. He pulled so hard that
off came Morgan's pegs, and Mande-
vile rolled to the ground. At sight of
the legless man Vaudeville was so
frightened that he ran for his life. Nor
gan at once began hostilities by pull
ing his revolver and firing at Mande-
vile, and there was a lively time all
around"

Sad End of a Famous Revival

The Rev. Augustus Littlejohn is re-
membered through the interior ofNew
York as the most powerful religious
revivalist OF his day. He belonged to
tie branch OF the Littleiohn family
which has furnished SO many eminent
recruits to the church and bar. In
his earlier career he was a successful
contractor, bnt he abandoned secular
ministry. He moved from town to
town, conducting revivals, with the
accompaniment of scenes of wild ex-
element and noisy fervor. He and
John B. Cough often labored togeth-
er. For a number OF years he made
his home in Chenango county, where
he married an estimable lady In the
progress OF his labors he built up
churches and brought thousands Of
converts to the altar. But rumors
became rife OF immoralitles. His wife
sued for a divorce, and he went West.
He engaged in revival work in Indiana,
and there he was again accused of
gross inmoralities and OF drunken
ness, and was, after sensational
trial, degraded from the pulpit. Aft
erwards, as a. reformed drunkard, he
lectured on temperance through Mich
igan. When old age overlook him he
was constrained to seek refuge in an
aims house at Paw Paw, Mich. One
morning recently he was found frozen
dead under the window of the room
he had occupied. His remains were
buried in a pauper's grave.

had reached a. point in the woods
about half a mile from his father 8
house, his double barreled shot gun
slipped off the seat, and in attempting
to draw it toward him the hammers
caught and both loads were discharged
into his heart. His clothing caught
fire from the flash and were burned
off, with the exception OF his over.
shoes and the feet of his felt boots.
The remains were discovered a few
days after lying on the seat OF the

do not doubt the ladv's statement,

| think the neighborhood IN which she
lives is sadly in want of intelligent
people or they would hire a, good
teacher. 1t speaks badly for the Gull
ture of the people of that vicinity to
employ such a teacher.
But TO young ladies desirous OF
teaching would like to give a little
advice. If you can, find some other
congenial employment, for if you are
OF a nervous, sensitive temperament,
and have not the happy knack some
teachers have of governing, twill ruin
your health, and firmly believe

fully one requires a firm will, d
mind capable of dismissing all school
cares with the locking of the school
house door, and of being able to de-
eide what is best to do in case of re-
belion in a second.
Without these the best education is
Of no avail as far as teaching goes.

if you do not possess these qualities,

Where Jet Comes From.

st. Louis republican.
Jet is the commonest substance in
use for personal ornaments, and yet
not one out of 1000 persons knows
where it comes from or what it is COM
posed Of. The English jet. which is
the most popular, is dug on the coast
OF Yorkshire near Whitby and Scar
borough. The trade from Whitbv
dates back to the latter part OF the
sixteenth century, and jet is known
to have been used for ornaments by
the early Britons and their Roman
conquerors. The price of the raw
material is from 10 to Is shillings a
pound. 1t is worked altogether by
hand. Pieces are sawed to the prop
or size and then the pattern is
scratched upon the jet with a sharp
pointed instrument. Then the work
man takes a knife and commences to
white the jet just as you might a
stick of wood, the material working
easily. With this knife and with small
chlseIs he works out the pattern, after
which the piece is taken to a grind
stone and the rough parts are ground
off. Swift whirling wheels do the
polishing, except where there are deep
incisions in the ornament, in which
case the boys finish the polishing with
thin strips OF list. Brilliancy is given
to the ornament by sparkling on a
rubber. Jet was once used almost en-
tirely in the way of pins, bracelets,
etc, but now the larger part OF the
output is made into dress trimmings.
