WEDNESDAY EVENING. JUNE 10.
Diet of Tacks,

CARPET tacks are not generally regarded as
a healthful kind Of diet, but many men have
taken them into their stomschs in varying
doses without suffering any injury from
them, but even deriving benefit from this
peculiar article of food, if the word of prom.
inent physicians is to be believed. In addi-
ton to the many carpet layers who fill their
mouths with tacks while at work, and now
and then slip one down their throat by acct.
dent, there are three colOred men on Lom-
bard street who are able and willing to star
lie spectator by swallowing a handful OF
eharp.pointed iron tacks with the greatest
NONCOMPLIANCE, as If they were the most nutri.
tious morsels. These men have neither
Ieathern int shines nor copper-lined stom'
achs, but they are able to take care OF pro.
dtgious quantity of carpet tacks without any
apparent discomfort or Ill effect. Medical
authorities assert that there Is far less FISK
attendant upon swallowing tack than ID
generally supposed, and that sucn per-
formance is sometimes productive OF beneh'
cial results. The freak who swallows sin
gle tack or handful of them is seized with
an abnormal desire for food, and it is to
this fact that the harmlessness of the swsl
lowing of tacks is ascribed. Curiously, the
tacks Invariably pass through the stomach
with their heads bowed down In rever-
ence'' and placed in the center of the food.
Even when the points of the tacks pene-
trate the walls OF the stomach the result is
not so dangerous as would be supposed.
The reason was explained In very simple
manner yesterday by DR.. 7. S. K. Morton,
who said: "These tack swallowers gener-
ally have very strong stomachs, and the
amount of gastric juice in them dissolves
the iron, and the result is q liquifed mass
similar in nature to the oxide of iron which
we prescribe to sick persons as tonic.
Really there is q certain amount Of benefit
attached to the swallowing of tacks, and
vet there Is always danger of serious re.
suit In consequence of such an act nave
never known of any person who has been
compelled to go to hospital from such
causes, however. But remember case OF
q horse that had swallowed large sized
tack. After his death We cut open his
stomach. We found there solidifed mass
of 8 stony nature. When this hard cub
stance was split open, we found that the
tack constituted Its nucleus. A similar ct.
feet would take place In persons stomach,
If the tack should happen to stick for any
length of time in the walls of the intestines.'

who lives at $3.50 Nicollet, and one of
the Plumley boys opened drawer
in which he had some money
and showed the other boys
wo revolvers which his father kept in
the back part of the drawer. Lyman
picked up the smallest one and pointed
it at Earl, who said:
''Don't point at me; it might go off,"
ut isn't loaded" replied the other
boy. ''Only the big one Is loaded. "
AS he said this he pulled the trigger,
and the revolver was discharged. The
ball entered young Demorias' head just
between the ball of the eye and the
bone above it, and the lad fell to the
floor unconscious. He was picked up by
two of the boys, and domestic en-
ployed in the family of Mrs.
Drs. Bates, Moon, Crosby and Allen
attended him. He was unconscious
until late in the afternoon, and Dr..
Bates says his recovery is decidedly
doubtful. The exact location of the
ball is not known, but it is feared that
it has taken course backwards into
the head. The eye was laid out on
the cheek, and the sight is destroyed. 4
AS soon as the child is suffici emily re-
covered from the shock, the ball will be
removed, and the recovery of the pa
tent is possible.
No one can be blamed, as the boy
who held the pistol is too young to
appreciate the careleSsness OF an act
that often disgraces older people than
he, and the parents of the Plumley boys
were away from home.

ATTEMPTED DISSECTION.
One Coiored Waiter Carves An
other Very Seriously.

A very serious cutting ARRAY which
may result in the death of Babcoek
Holmes, colored, occurred early yester-
day afternoon at PAT Seventh Avenue
North. The cutting was done by Dan
Williams, another colored man, who
fled after stabbing Holmes three
times, and has not been cap
tured as yet. The real motive
for the deed is not known,
but yesterdays trouble is believed to
have grown out of an old dispute be
tween the two men, who are colored
walters. and have known each other for
a long time. They are said to have
boarded and roomed together alta plaza
i'll South Minneapolis some time ago,
and Holmes finally refused to occupy
room with Williams on account of the
latter's lack of personal cleanli-
ness. This made ill feeling
on Williams part, and the
trouble is said to have been made more
serious by some misunderstanding about
dusky fairy with more personal at
fractions than moral character.
Yesterday after the two had finished
their dinner they got into a war of words
and Holmes invited Williams outside to
settle it. When they got out doors
Williams drew knife and attacked
Holmes, stabbing him viciously in the
region of the heart and tear
ing his breast open for several
inches. He aimed another blow at
Holmes, who attempted to repulse him
and received the blade in the arm, and
third in the hand, when Mrs. Bentley,
who keeps the boarding house. came
rushing out and shouted to Williams to
desist. "You keep outen de way er I'll
cut yer heart out, d-nye," he shouted
at her: but by this time he had con-
Guided that the temperature in that re-
gion was likely to rise suddenly. and,
casting an ugly glance at his bleeding
victim, turned and fled.
DR.. La Paulle was called and dressed
the wounds of the injured man. The
cut on the breast is dangerous, if not
fatal, one, while the cash in the arm is
exceedingly ugly. The patient is weak
from loss of blood. and seems to have
suffered greatly from the shock, but
with good care he may recover.
