Washing Out the Stomach.

A medical journal reports that the
young men of Washington, when in
yited out to dinner, carry the prepara-
tions of their toilet SO far as to wash out
their stomachs with stomach pump.
OF this the Record remarks: 1T might
even be regarded AZ an act of courtesy
to the host to bring to his table stom-
ach that has been scientifically laun-
dried, and which lies in neat and anti
septic emptiness folded beneath the di-
aphragm." Tho British Medical Jour
nal favors cleansing the stomach before
meals in less vigorous or heroic fash-
ion, viz: BY drinking freely of water
OF this 1t says; 1T washes away tho
mucus which is secretod during the in-
tervals of reposo and fayors peristalsis
of the whole alimentary tract. The
membrane thus cleaused is in n much

Messrs. Hazard, Keefe, Lowell and

held in the City Hall at 10 O'Clock yes
terdsy morning. Watson & Randolph
asked for permission to erect an engine

Chief.
A number of demands were approved
and ordered paid.
The Chief reported that he had dis.
missed j. w. Hervey and Frank Carr, oi
Company No. 1, thus reducing the force
of that company to five men. He also
announced the suspension Of W. A.

Dr. Green Does Not Look FavOrablv
on Wanamaker's scheme.
New YORK, September 4.-Postmaster- A.
General Wanamaker recently summoned
to Washington various officials of the
telegraph companies, in order to lay be-
fore them some details of, and make
proposals for, the new postal telegraph
service which he has had under
consideration for some time. DR..
Green, President Of the Western Union,
was one of these officials, and
has just returned rom the conferer CO
He gave this afternoon to a reporter
some details Of the proposed scheme
DR.. Green did not look upon the project
in very favorable light. 1t would be a
distinctly second-class delivery service.
There would not be immediate
delivery by the postofices, but
stated times of delivery, as in
the case with letters now. Business
and commercial men, he believed, would
not avail themselves of such service 8
when they can have first class messages
delivered by the company the very
moment received. 1t is, however, the
extension of the telegraph service that
forms the chief feature of Wanamaker's q
scheme. There are at present So, 900
postoffices in the country; about
$4,000 have telegraph service.
DR.. Green said Of the 1900 receiving
Offices which the company now has,
about two-thirds were prtfitless. DR..
Green was very much inclined to doubt
the financial success of extending the
lines to 10000 little places in order to
make the blessings of telegraph service
we'll nigh universal for the people.

Associated Press dispatches to the HERALD
LlNKvILLE, Ore, September 4.-Last
night about IL O'Clock the northbound
stage on the Ayer-Linkville line was
robbed by a lone highwayman. After
robbing the express box of $100 and the
single passenger of $50, the robber
climbed on the hind boot of the stage
and ordered the driver to go ahead.
Soon the rattle of the southbound stage
could be heard. The robber commanded
a halt. Ordering the driver to stay
where he was, he slipped away in the
ushes. The driver listened, and heard
the command to halt. The wheels
stopped. Then he heard the blows
of an axe on the express
box. The south.bound stage was pre-
sumably robbed in the same manner as
the north-bound, but it is not known
how much money was taken, as the
drivers we're not allowed to speak to
each other, and only one has reached
here 30 far. The robber is described as
being short, good looking man, about
25 years of age. He wore no mask.
