by Gatiins Gun

The Destruction Wrought at La Coupe
by a Gatiing Gun.
New YORK, August 23d.--Stephen Pres
ton, aide-de-csmp 10 Legitime, arrived here
from Hayti this morning. He SAYS that in
the engagement al La Coupe, a Gatling gun
killed all but 50 out of $50 followers of
Hippolyte, There are 1000 of Legitime's
soldiers on the ramparts at La Coupe. but
there is no telling when they will 90 over
to Hippolyte, as most of them are from
southern towns. Preston says La Coupe
once captured by Hippolyte, Port-an-
Prince would go also and Hippolyte be
victorious. he would not be surprised 10
hear at any time that Port au- Prince had
fallen.
The correspondence of the Post says that
IN the battle at La Coupe about $50 were
killed and wounded on each side.
Port.au-Prince is now invested on all
sides except By water. Foreign war vessels
are near patiently waiting for its fall.

weakest since her conviction. She is now
completely Frustrated. and it is feared she
will not live long in confinement.
Briefly Mrs. May brick S paramour, sailed
for Boston on the steamship Cythia to-day.
The facts concerning the correspondence
sent to Home Secretary Matthews in the
Maybr case are coming out. There are
many curious and extraordinary missives
Some of the writers declared that they had
pledged themselves not TO allow Matthews
to live single day after Mrs. Maybrick was
hanged, if he should permit the Judges
sentence to be carried out Women in ap-
parently respectable positions volunteered
to be hanged instead of Mrs. Maybrick, if
that would satisfy the Home Secretary.

years before his marriage at Norfolk, Va.
lived with him. Maybrick often COM
planned that he did not feel well, and time
and time again sent me to a drug store to
get him arsenic. He bought half a dollars
worth at time. made beef tea, and he
would put the arsenic in and drink it. His
partner, Bateson, knew he was using it.
Maybrick went to England, got married
and returned to Norfolk l used TO super
intend all the dinners and receptions,
which were many. Maybrick continued
the use of arsenic. Toward the last of my
service the doses of arsenic grew larger,
and he wanted more rubbing. For nine
years he used arsenic. Captain Thomas
who ran a cotton steamer between Liver
pool and Norfolk, little while before
Maybrick's death, met him in Liverpool
and together they went to drug shop and
Maybrick bought arsenic. The Captain
learned that Maybrick was customer
there for the drug. He cautioned him, but
Maybrick told him to mind his own bust
ness.

America will be perfectly content with an

TUE CHEF wishes its thousands
Of readers a Happy New Yer. On
next Tuesday evening at II o'clock p.
m. the old year will have taken its
fight and 1890 will be ushered in
with all the pcmp and glory that its
birth is entitled to. With the begin
ming of 1890 it will be in order to
form new resolutions, and new deter
limitations. In doing so it will be wise
to make such resolutions as can be
easily kept, and then you will be
sure to keep them inviolate. We hope
that with the commencement of 1890
that many new resolutions will be
formed and that the year will be a
prolific one for good deeds, bountiful
crops and great prosperity to eur peo-
pie. The CHIEF hopes that 1890
will be one of great happiness and

There has always been a lack of unfit.
cation among farmers aud as a conse.
quence they have been overridden BY
nearly all the other classes and made
to take any prise that the middle men
saw ft TO give them. Let them Join
forces and demand their rights, and
if the Alliance will bring about the
desired end, We should say Gall Hail
the Alliance" Give the farmers a
chance and they will come out all
right. 1t has been a lack of cooper
alton that has kept them down so
long. It is time anyhow, for them to
organize and protect themselves
against the oppressive heel of mo-
nopolies which have banded together
to crush the farmers and every labor

1t is a fact that newspaper readers do
not slight the advertisements. They
have come to realize that the ADVERTISE
men:s in the newspaper represents that
which the merchants have for sale, and
they take paine to familiarize themselves
with what the stOrekeepers have to offer.
Moreover the constituency Of a paper are
apt to be governed by what they see in
their own paper. If the paper is accept
ed in ifs political, moral, and intellectual
tone. as our home paper is, advertisers
share the respect and the confidence be
slowed upon the paper itself. This is an
important fact for advertisers to remem-
Der, at the same time it calls for exercise
on the part of the newspaper publishers
of 1es1S care in the admission of adver-
tisements.

Night Air far Better than Foul
Air.

An extraordinary fallacy is the dread
OF night air. What air can we breathe
at night but night ARP The choice is
between pure night air from without
and foul air from within. Most people
prefer the latter, an unaccountable
choice. What will they say if it is
proved to be true that fully one-half
of all the diseases we suffer from are
occasioned by people sleeping with
their windows shut? An open window,
most nights in the year, can never
hurt any In great cities night
air is often the best and purest to be
had in twenty-four hours. I could bet
ter understand shutting the windows
in town during the day than during
the night, for the sake of the sick.
The absence of smoke, the quiet, all
tend to make night the best time for
airing the patient. One of our highest
medical authorities on consumption
and climate has told me that the air of
London is never SO good as after 10.
o'clock at night. Always air your ROOM.
then, from the outside air, If possible.
Windows are made to open, doors are
made to shut, q truth which seems ex-
tremely difficult Of apprehension.
Every must be aired from with
out, every passage from within. SAM.
