Without Government and W1the
Out Compass-Thc Crisis.
PARIS, March 31.-Noon-The
Bourse opened weak to-day owing to
the overthrow of the Tirard ministry.
The Opportunist journals say the de-
feat of the ministry gives Boulanger
what he wants, coalition of the Irre-
concilables and Cesarians, having the
defeat of the Republican majority.
The Steele says: eve are again
without a government, without .
majority and without compass. The
dissolution Of the Chamber Of DepE-
ties is near"
A VICTORY FOR BOULANGER.
The Journal des Debats says the real
victor in the struggle yesterday, which
resulted in the defeat of the Cabinet,
was Boulanger. The crisis, it says,
will be a formidable one on account Of
the understanding between the Right
and the extreme Left. Floquet does
not desire the Premiership and it is
likely that either Ribot or Deves will
be called upon to form ministry.
The Radicals threaten to put Boulan-
ger up as a candidate for the Presi-
dency against Carnot if the latter re-
fuses to accede to their programme.
A pRoTRACTED CRISIS.
President Carnot conferred with Le-
roger, President of the Senate, to-day.
The President will probably summon
Floquet to form ministry. A pro-
tracted crisis is expected.

A LITTLE TOO sANGUINE.

An official who was seen to-day
said: "Our reports from Chicago
state that everything is serene on the
Fort Wayne road. We do not know
what to expect, however. None of
the Burlington freight is being han
died by us. 1t would not be policy
to do so. It may be that there are a
few stray Burlington cars on the Fort
Wayne, between Pittsburg and Chi
cago, but, if there are, they were the
ones that were taken when it was
supposed the strike was settled. With
the strike assuming a more serious
phase we will not receive any Bur-
jington freight, and in fact, I do not
think any will be offered us.

Special to the Gazette.
Houston, TEX. Dec. 1.-THE personal
difficulty which occurred between Judge
Goldthwaite, prominent lawyer of this
city, and Washington Irving Bishop, the
mind-reader of last Tuesday, has de-
veloped something of a sensation. Bishop,
it is believed, said that he was Il
brother of Mrs. John S. Lock-
wood, the wife of prominent
banker of San Antonio. After the diff
Guilty Judge Goldthwaite, for reasons of
his own telegraphed Judge I. n. Simp-
son of San Antonio to know if Bishops
claim was correct. The answer came
back that he was no kin to Mrs Lock-
wood. This settled Bishop and he sent q
telegram to Mrs. Lockwood at San An
tonic in which he charges her with not
only having deprived him of a heritage of
$50 900, but now of attempting to dis
own him as a brother. Bishop still claims
that the San Antonio lady is his sister and
submits to interviews in the local press,
giving an extended history of his family
troubles

habit of very common prevalence among
nervous people was brought to my notice
recently, - said leading physician of
Philadelphia to reporter the other day
ga young lady presented herself at
my office and complained of a
constant irritation in her throat
Two weeks previously she had been taken
with very severe attack of sore throat
which was treated by the family physi-
clan. Under his care, she said, the in
fiammatiOn quickly subsidized, but there
still remained sensation of irritation +.
Examination revealed a small fieshy
looking object about the size
Of a kernel of wheat adherent to
the tissues posterior to the left tOnsil
by the one end. The other parts of
the throat were normal. The little mass
could not be detached by cotton covered
probe, but by the use OF forceps it was
easily removed and on examination
proved to be piece of finger nail which
had become imbedded in cheesy de-
post. A broken piece of the nail was
also removed from under the mucous
membrane at the same spot by sharp
pointed probe.
"The lady then confessed to the habit
of biting her finger nails, and moreover
could remember that day or two previ-
Gus to her throat trouble piece of nail
she had bitten Off had become lost in her
mouth, but after it had caused fit of
coughing she had forgotten all about it
until reminded by the discovery.
