How They Made Their Diagnosis.
A certain worthy and well-known
citizen of Boston died of one OF those
intricate complications of disease which
are the despair of physicians and the
unfalling resource of death, says the
Boston Courier. There was some curl
oslty, aroused by the unusual character
of his symptoms, in regard to the cause
of his untimely taking off, and two
elderly fellow citizens Of the deceased,
as well known as himself, were over
heard discussing the matter between
themselves.
For my part" said one, II can't in
the least make out what caused MS
death. One says he had one thing and
another said he had another, and they
all seem to think that he had whole
assortment of diseases"
The second worthy citizen, who had
an interview with somebody accurately.
Informed in the case, proceeded to give
a somewhat elaborate review aof NJ
illness. and the inference of the ply
sieians from the symptoms.
But how" inquired the first speaker
at length, did they make their dag
noSis?''
"Oh," was the ready reply, ''from the
post mortem."
The method is certainly not one which
eommends itself to the mind of the
layman, but it should at least he one to
give accurate results.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Aug. 15.-Man-

against the Brooklyns to-day. -Four of
the men were more fit for the hospital

visited New York city-with which
place nobody else in Dolgeville is prob
ably so familiar. A man came up 20 us

taking a noontime snack at Delmonico's,

We had the old bunko game down fine,
and, looking the man squarely in the
eyes. we replied: "You presume too
much, sir We are not the editor"
This was untrue, but justifiable under
the circumstances) Il beg your par

to the dinner of the Press club this

He had been received with unnecessary
suspicion and we had missed a good
dinner. We merely mention this in
cident as reminder to those who are
always saying $50 slow!" that it is not
always wise to go too slowly. We must
risk something if we would be truly
great.

cry mention of the name of Gen. Bou-
LANCER by the speakers was greeted
with acclamations. Gen. Du Ba-
rail presided. In speech he
said that Gen. Boulanger alone among
Republicans remained faithful to the
national tradition of the plebiSeite.
What could be conceived mere odious,
he asked. than the traitorous judiciary
trap called trial by the high court of
the senate? AS an old soldier, he felt
wounded in his military honor upon
seeing an officer and high digntary of
the Legion of Honor, after serving
his country for thirty years, put in the
balance against the evidence of swind-
lers and abject spies. Never before had
such humiliation beeninficted upon the
army. Everything was compromised
justice, the magistracy and the national
finances. "Those domineering u.s." he
said, understand neither their perils
nor our pride. Let US with strong
hearts make a strong effort to deliver
ourselves" At the conclusion of the
speech there were cheers and shouts of
''ViYe BOulanger"

IN BARNES BEHALF.
Mr.. Poupeny Says a Kind Word
For the Retiring Manager.

Mr.. Poupeny, treasurer of the st. Paul
Base Ball club, writes a long letter in
praise of the management of the club by
Mr.. Barnes. Among other things he says:
In 1856, when Barnes first undertook to
get up a professional team in st. Paul, not
one of the so-called kickers and cranks were
willing to lend any assistance to the scheme
but, to a man, would throw cold water on his
plans, until he finally undertook it on his
own resources. and from that day to this sue
cess crowned his every effort and he raised
the national game in ST. Paul to what it is
this day. He labOred and worked hard and
faithfully TO bring his club to a standard with
others in the league, and every year he stood
well in the race for the penuant, but because
he would not squander money that high title
was snatched from him, yet his team was al
ways composed of good men and under the
best discipline. Harmony and peace always
prevail among them, and no more gentle
manly ball players exist in any city than
those managed by Mr.. Barnes. Some of the
best players i'll the larger associations were
trained under Barnes and no Western man
ager has so well succeeded in developing

An Infallible Indicator.

Sdu IducISCO
You can tell pretty we'll how a girl
feels towards you by the way she takes
your arm. If she doesn't care a cent
you know it by the Indifference of her
muscles. If she has great confidence
in you, the pressure tells it; and friend
ship is as distinct from love in that
mode of expression as in words or looks.
A woman can take the arm of a fellow
she likes much with perfect comfort,
even If she is six feet high and he is
four. But even if the two are just
matched she can make him feel disdain,
contempt, discomfort, dislike, anything
she likes by the way she does not hold
ON to him. L am told there is great
deal of difference, too, between the way
a girl fits her waist to one mans arm as
compared with another; but hardly
believe 1t.

Military Men Interested in Ex-
periments with the New ExpIo-
sive.
LONDON, Aug. 15.-Military men are
watching with keen interest the expert
ments OIL the continent with the new
smokeless powder. So far, nothing ex-
cept its higher cost has been brought
forward against it to counterbalance
the very evident advantages which re-
suit from its use. At the Spandau
maneuvres yesterday, both emperors
watched with great interest the shoot
ing from the side using this smokelesS
powder, and noted with much satisfac-
ton that On that side the movements of
the troops, not being hampered by the
dense volume of smoke which hung over
the opposing army were characterized by
much greater precision and freedom of
action. 1t is not strictly correct to speak
of this new powder as smokeleSS, for
there certainly is some smoke. but it is
very light, and at Spandau yesterday,
after the firing had continued for an
hour OF more, at distance of 800 yards
from the troops using this powder, no
smoke whatever could be seen, although
a nearer approach disclosed a light,
steam-like Yapor. What was perhaps
quite as noticeable feature was the abb
sence to great extent of the deafening
noise to which we are accustomed from
the explosion of fire arms. Tt is calcu-
lated that the report of given volume
of the smokeless powder is just half as
loud as with the same volume of ordi-
nary powder.

FITZGERALD'S QUERY.
The Maybrick Case Comes Up in
the House of Lords.


the House of Lords.
LONDON, Aug. 15.-In the house of
lords this evening Lord Fitzgerald
asked whether the government would
consider the necessity of constituting
court of criminal appeal. He referred
to the Maybrck case as forcing the ques-
ton upon the public mind. Baron Halls
bury, lord high chancellor, said he was
opposed to making the question SUBJ
iect for discussion at time when the
public was excited. 1t was not desira-
bic, he said, to debate such an altera-
ton of the law while jurors, witnesses
and Judge were being subjected to bru-
tai violence and Intimidation. He
declared that insults had been heaped
upon the home secretary in order
to influence him in the discharge of a
solemn duty. Baron Herschell, formerly
lord high chancellor, held that wrong
decisions were rare in criminal cases.
Nevertheless he trusted that the gov
ernment would seriously consider the
matter during the parliamentary recess,
in view of the widespread feeling that
tribunal of appeal would form safe
guard against injustice.

TAMPERING WITH LETTERS.

Home Secretary Matthews Says
His Department Is Not to Blame.
LONDON, Aug. 15.-In the house of
commons this evening Mr.. Sexton asked
Home Secretary Matthews whether he
had authorized the postoffice officials to
open letters from America addressed to
Mr.. Parnell by his mother, or to open
the letter from President Harrison to
the lord mayor of Dublin. The home
secretary replied that there was no rea-
son to suppose that either letters adj
dressed to Mr.. Parnell or the letter
from President Harrison had been
opened in the postoffice. He had not
authorized the opening Of letters. If
any were opened it was without the
knowledge of the home office. An in
Quiry into the alleged opening of PreSi-
dent Harrison's letter is proceeding.

TROTTING AT ROCHESTER,
The Famous PAGER Johnston Fails

ROCHESTER,, n. Y, Aug. 15.-The

morrow for silver cup. Johnston,

LOUISVILLE, Aug 15.-Baltimore won
the game to-day in the first inning.
Ehret and Foreman both pitched we'll.
and Baltimore had much the advantage
of the batting and fielded little more
sharply than Louisville. Cook was hit
in the arm in the seventh and withdrew,
bringing in Weaver behind the bat and
Hecker to first base! Weather pleasant:
at enhance 1000. Goldsmith sent word
to the grounds to-day that he would not
appear there. 1t is supposed this was
because of threats made against him
last night when he failed to apologize
to bank official, whom, by mistake, he
started to send off the grounds yester
day. He is denounced here as coward.
