Is bad breath, and yet how many other
wise attractive, polite and particular peo-
pie afflict their friends with the foul odoT
of their breath. If there was no remedy
for this, it might excite our sympathy,
but as there is no need OF having a foul
breath, it is an objectionable breach OF
good manners to obtrudo such an offence
on good society.
Foul breath arises from disordered di-
gestion which can be corrected by using
Sulphur Bitters, and the result will be a
pure, sweet breath.

MET DEATH ON A WIRE.
Hundreds of People Witness the Horri-
BILE Scene from tho Streets.


BILE Scene from the Streets.
NEW YORK, Oct. 11.-An electric line
man met with horrible death at the
corner OF Center and Chambers Streets
at o'clock this q ternoon from contact
with an electric light wire. He was
employed by the Western Union Com
pany, and presented a terrible sight
as he died on the network of wires
in midair, while the deadly
fluid actually made his body sizzle and
the blood pour out on the sidewalk and
over the clothes of the horrifed spec
tators. The accident occurring in the
middle of the day, in one of the bust
est parts Of the city, was witnessed by a
large crowd of people.
The mans body lay limp and motion
less over the mass of wires attached to
the cross trees of the pole. The fire.
men brought out ladder and one went
up with a pair of shears to cut the
wires. The man was found to be dead.
The wire in fifteen minutes had
burned off half the face of the victim.
The left arm was also seen to be
burning and every few seconds
the blue flames spurted out
from the various parts of the
body. Hundreds of people stood
shivering as they looked at the awful
sight overhead. No one dared to go
near. Even the fremen's faces
blanched with horror. Line man Ben
son, the dead mans companion
was asked why he did not GO up. He
simply said Its no use. he's dead.
| don't know the electric wires. l can't
helm him. [ was on the other pole and
don't know anything about it."
Immediately after the accident May or
Grant was notified by Private Secretary
Crane. The Mayor gave orders that the
wires that caused the accident
be cut at once. Secretary Crane
said that the Mayor would act
promptly in the matter and it is posi-
BILE shat he may order the cutting CT all
electric wires above ground tonight
when large part of the city will be
in darkness.
The body of the lineman was left on
the wires for more than a half hour,
when it was taken down after the cur
rent was turned off.
Deputy Coroner jenkins said that
this spectacle was the NEST CHASTITY he
(which cut through the lineman's
cheek had evidently entered at
the mouth. It had burned clear
into the cheek bone. The burn in the
throat had severed the windpipe and
many muscles and veins just below
Adams apple. Ii the man had been sus-
pended in the air much longer the head
would have been completely severed
from the body. The shock may not
have killed him instantly, but it GER
tainlv rendered him unconscious 30
that his face fell forward on the other
wires. cannot say just which wire he
caught hold of first, for his hand
dropped from it after the fingers had
been amputated by the burns and fallen
to the street."

HARRIsON'S STRANGE VISITOR.

BeneZulf, q Merchant of Tangier, Asks
Damages for imprisonment.
President Harrison on the Sth received
a strange looking visitor. AS he walked
to and from the White House in the
costume of his native country, he di-
vided, with the cohorts of knights
Templar, the attention of the vast
throngs on the streets. He was Mr..
Benezuli, merchant of Tangier,
Morocco. Even had not his dress, con-
sisting principally of a white toga and
red fez, been go unusual his dark Arab
visage would have attracted attention.
Of New York, his interpreter and his
attorney, and came to lay before the
President the grounds of his complaint
against William Reid Lewis, United
States consul at Tangier. AS related
by his attorney the story is like this
Benezuli was merchant in Tangier,
who had placed himself under
the protection of the United States con-
sui. About two years ago he was ar
rested at the order of Consul Lewis Tor
alleged conspiracy to kill debtor, an
other resident of Tangier, by employ
ing a man to murder the offending debt
or. Upon this charge he was confined
in jail nearly year, when he was re-
loaSod. An 1nVeSClgatlOn OF the case
resulted in his complete exoneration.
In December, 1883, BenezuD ar
rived in New York, and will
stay in this country until
his case is determined. He asks that
suitable PREPARATION be made him for the
indignity and suherings endured be-
cause of the consul's acts. President
Harrison heard the story through, and
after assuring the gentleman that the
case should have careful investigation
and attention, sent him to Secretary
Blaine to lay the papers before him.

CHASED HIM 10000 MILES.
a Cir Pursues q Man Who Wrongs Her
From Australia to Chicago.


From Australia te Chicago.
CHICAGO, ILL.,, Oct. IA good looking
young woman from Australia arrived in
Chicago last night, after a 10,O00-mile
journey in pursuit of married man
who had welded her under pretense
that he was single. The fellow is now
IN jail. He proved to be noted Amer
lean criminal, julius Mailhouse, alias
julius M. House. The Australian girl is
Miss Elizabeth Hackett, daughter of a
Well-to-do carriage manufacturer in
Melbourne. After serving a term at
Joliet, Mailhouse went to Australia as a
drummer for Chicago meat firm, leav-
ing wife IN this city. His meeting
with Miss Hackett, courtship, marriage,
a weeks honeymoon, a sudden business
call to Sydney preceded by the drum
mer borrowing $3.50 from his new faith
er-ln-laW. tells the Australian end of
the story. Mailhouse was next heard
of In San francisco, in q letter
telling Miss Hackett to expect him by
the next fteamer- She didn't wait, but
took the rst vessel for the United
States, invests eating en- route his record.
Mailhouee was at home with his first
wife last night when arrested. The ex-
convict's nerve did not desert him, and
he laughingly attempted to embrace his
pursuer. She repelle him with an up
lifted chair, and declared that she would
remain in Chicago and support herself
till he was again landed in the peniten-
tlary at Joliet.

GEN. BOULANGER'S FUNDS.
Largely Provided by Spectators, Toad
les and Rom antic Women.

Largely Provided by Spectators, Toad
les and Romantic Women.
The anxiety which Gen. Boulanger
has always shown to induce the British
public to take a favorable view of his
prospects, Notwithstanding the almost
unanimous hostility of the British press
to his pretentions, may be explained on
very material grounds. There is no
doubt that very considerable por-
ton of the funds which have
been put to 80 MANY question
able uses in the recent French
election were subscribed in London,
presumably'to great extent by mem
bers of the French colony in the En-
glish capital, but by no means wholly.
If ever full list of the subscribers shall
be disclosed it will be found to include
not few of London's spectators and
fnanciers, at least one English peer and
several members of the House of Com
mons, of whom no one would have
dreamed as being likely to interest
themselves in French politics. Gen.
Boulanger owes a great deal to
the romantic liberality Of women.
One French lady of rank resid-
ing i'll London sold her jewels in
order to make him present of the pro-
ceeds, and another confesses to having
al's finances. Until the result of the
second elections became definitely
known Boulanger continued to be lion
lied in certain quarters. Visions of an
other Napoleon III. seemed to have
filed the heads of many English host
esses. They were proud to meet the
General; they. acknowledged him in
public with evident pleasure at his con-
descenslon In recognizing them.

LORD HOWE'S BONES.
The English commanders Coffin Dug Up
From rhe Battlefield of Ticonderogs.


While laborers were engaged in ,g-
ging a sewer in one of the primo pal
streets of the village of Ticonderoga,
n. Y, on the 10th, they struck tomb
stone. AT the bottom of it was found
coffin containing the bones of HUI
man being. The stone was washed
Oft and found to contain the
inscription and date of the death
OF Lord Howe. The skull was
intact, but the rest of the bones were
disjointed and considerably decayed.
AS the news spread crowd assembled
and many persons made desperate
efforts to procure pieces Of the bones.
The coffin, which was of oak, was in
fairly good state of preservation. Sew
eral years ago the street where the
remains were found was filled in several
feet, which accounts for the depth
of the tombstone's location. The re-
mains will probably be reinterred at
once in the village cemetery. Lord
Howe, or George Augustus Howe, was
born in England in l724, and was killed
In the battle at Ticonderoga, July s,
1853. He entered the army at very
early age, soon rose to distinction, and
IN 1857 WAS sent to this country in com.
mand of the Sixtieth Regiment. July
6, 1853, under Commander-in-C Chief
James Abercrombie, he landed at the
outlet of Lake George. Coming sud-
denly upon the French forces two days

more than ordinary energy and enter

tithes due him, and which the people
are not disposed to pay, he headed a

three times, and when it became known
that he proposed again to enter the
farms, assisted by the bajliffs and the
rector himself, large crowd, armed
with sticks, assembled and made des-

tor fought nobly in defense of his
rights, and with heavy club which he
welded with great dexterity, he felled

Preparations at Chicago.

A Chicago dispatch of the 9th says:
This was the anniversary OF the great
fire, and the 10000 wage-workers of
the city celebrated it by subscribing for
the worlds far stock. About 10000
books were circulated in all the
stores, factories and workshops,
and an hour was designated
by the mayor at which the workmen
knocked off. Everywhere the greatest
enthusiasm was manifested, and it is
thought that the total amount subscribed
will be something like 100000. The
movement was intended to popularize
Chicago's effort to secure the exposi-
ton Of 1892, and Secretary Cragin says
they are perfectly satisfied with the re-
sniff
