EXCITING CONTESTS.

Fannie u Wins the Brandywino stakes
AFTER Close contest-Joe ID Also a
winaer-The Race for GentIemeu's
Driving Teams.
The races of the last day OF the VIII
mington Fair were close contests, and
aroused as much interest as those of the
previous days of the weeks. The track.
which late Friday afternoon was mass
of mud and water had dried and barring
two or three slightly muddy places,
was as smooth and hard as on
any day during the exceptionally fine
week. About 2 500 people occupied seats
in the grand stand and Hyatt's Military
Band furnished the music. DR. j. G
Mccoy Of kirkwood and G Barnard Of
Avondale assisted c. H. Smith Ia Judging
the races Mr. Simon having returned
home and Mr.. Nichols driving his team
in the race for gentlemen's driving
teams.

Fannie Ii led In the first heat, but Sam
Weber caught her at the three quarter

the lead all the way around and won by

next three heats Sam Weber broke
badly In the third. In the fourth Sam
Weber came up 10 the home stretch at
Fannies shoulder, and Fannie won by a
neck. In the fifth heat they went into
the back neck and neck, rounded the turn
and came up to the home stretch the
same, while the grand stand was wild
with excitement. Both drivers used the

race for gentlemen's double teams, purse
$780, in two straight heats. Time 2.54
and .45f. The only other entry was
Gideon NJ, and Trulone, D P, 5. Nichols
Philadelphia. Mr. Nichols drove his own
team and the beautiful bays trotted both
heats without a single break. Mr..
Nichols apparently did not urge his team
in the slightest to win the race. The
black horse in Mr. Cooper's team
broke continually. In announcing the
result Judge Smith said: '"rhe judges

Two o'clock found the large room in
the old Court House packed with people.
On the platform were seated Mayor Han
son, Deputy Attorney General Thomas
Davis, sheriff Allen and newspaper re-
porters and correspondents. One of the
Hungarian prisoners Frank Sinder, was
sworn as an interpreter, and was in
structed to get the name of each of the
prisoners who were seated on the front
rows of chairs.
He called out the names to Mr. Davis,
who at first thought he would write
them down, but he gave it up for a bad
job. The interpreter then obtained each
name and wrote list of them. The
list contains thirty two unpronounceable
and wonderfully spelled names.
The first witness called was Martin
Leonard the keeper Of the Dobbinsville
House. He said he was coming out OF
his cellar about o'clock, and heard a
man singing and making a noise He
told him to stop it. The man did not dc

Inc tlrst requisite to easy sweeping
#is Q good broom. When buying select
one with q light, slender handle and

handle and tiresome to the hands.
Coarse, heavy straws are too
brittle, they break off easily, and the
broom soon wears out. To determine
the quality OF the straws it is neces-
sary to examine them carefully, push.
ing the outer ones aside with the fin
gers. 80 that the inside may be seen,
for frequently layer Of longer. slen-
der straws on the outside is used to set
of very inferior article. n. ,t - .
Having obtained good broom, NV
first injunction is do not grasp the
handle too tightly with the upper
hand. Let the hold be light enough to
allow the handle to slide up and down
through the hand with each forward
and backward swing of the broom. This
will prevent your putting too much
weight on the broom, which is an i'm
portant matter, and, what is still more
important, save much unnecessary
twisting of the body and working of
the arms. Care should be taken, how
ever, that the hold be not too loose, as
that will render the broom unsteady.
Again, always work with the upper
arm, never the lower towards the di-
rection in which you are sweeping,
changing your hold upon the handle,
the upper hand for the lower and tho
lower for the upper, as frequently as
you turn about to go in an opposite d.
rection. This keeps the broom in its
proper position, which is as nearly
perpendicular Us possible, and, since
It is the lower arm that supplies the
power that operates the broom, this
change is restful to the arms and
shoulders by dividing the labor be-
tween the right arm and the left,
and frequently changing the po-
sition OF the body. If you have
not been accustomed to doing this.
you will find it little awkw ard
at first, but it will soon become quite
natural to make the change, and you
will be surprised at the ease and thor
oughness with which you can do your
sweeping, as compared with the old
method of retaining the same hold up
on the handle throughout
Lastly. do not make too long stroke
with the broom. Nothing is gained;
while, on the other hand, much labor
is wasted by throwing the broom so
far back that only the sides of the
straws are at first applied to the floor,
and by extending the stroke so far to
the front that the broom rises into the
air, sending the dust flying in clouds
through the room. Use the broom
lightly and briskly, keeping it close to
the floor, and making a stroke of but
from two to two and a half feet in
length; and if, while observing all the
foregoing rules, you will in addition
sweep crosswise of the strip of carpet.
you will find the result to be- a great
saving in brooms, a saving in carpet
and {. saving in much valuable strength

ARSEN,CAL POISONING.
How to Discover 1t During the Life of the

How to Discover 1t During the Life of the
Victim.
DR.. Brouardel, the dean of the Paris
faculty, read before the Academy OF
Medicine, Paris, a paper on arsenical
poisoning particularly worthy the at
tention of all practitioners. An i'm
portant part of this paper touched upon
the discovery of the fact of arsenical
poisoning during the life of the victim.
Occasionally a physician is called to
attend some patient-never really
makes out what is the matter, gives a
certificate of death based upon the
most prominent symptom he saw, and
subsequently is informed by the police
that his patient was poisoned with ar
senic. The Somerville cases in Massa-
chusetts passed in that way. Some
times the doctor suspects the evil, but
can not be sure by ordinary observa-
ton. What is he to do then? Examine
the venal excretion. DR.. Brouardel
says arsenic will be found there in a
few minutes after it has been given,
and if much has been given it may be
found for many days after the dosing
has stopped (forty days in a
case watched by DR.. Gail
lard). But the physician must
take the excretion himself to be sure
against substitution. In addition the
poison can in cronic case be found in
the hair-a lock of which can usually
be had without difficulty. DR.. Brou-
ardel classifies very exactly for in
stance in these obscure cases the Sc
quence of symptoms-making four
groups. First, come troubles with the
digestive organs; next, catateous erup-
tions and laryngo bronchial Ca
tarrh; third, are troubles of sensibili-
ty. and, fourth, paralysis. If death
follows rapidly it is because pacal-
ysis stops the heart But death may
not follow rapidly. 1t may not be due
10 direct action of the arsenic, but to
organic changes which the arsenic has
produced, changes in the hepatic and
renal cells and in the muscles so that
the death resembles one due to chronic
alcoholism. In such case if the a.
senic has been eliminated from all Or
binary tissues it will yet be
found in the bones. Accord
ing to the researches of M.
Pouchet, included in Dr.. Brouardel's
paper, arsenic accumulates livery rap
idly in the spongy tissue of the bones,
no matter by what method it is given,
and can be found there when it is no
longer possible to find it in the Wis
ezra. IN. Y. Herald. H. .
