is this 'possum story that "Cooney the
Fox" has been caught at place named Dodge
vile, in the Badger state?
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1889-12-14

One Of the most righteous decisions ever
rendered by court Of justice in this country
was that of the New York Supreme Court yes
One Of these Supreme Court judges, not one
concurring in the present decision, however,
prevented the execution of the municipal order
for the removal of the overhead wires for many
weeks and thus contributed to cause the death
OF more than one person. The people are to
be congratulated that at last tribunal of final
resort is found to declare the paramount i'm
portsnce Of human life over corporation greed
and convenience. 1t is as Judge Brady, in one
the three opinions rendered, states: There
should be no intervals of safety when life may
be sacrificed by the condition of some instru-
nent or agency used in the business"
The giftof 81, 25O, 600 by Sir Edward Guinness,
TO be expended in building suitable homes for
the poor of London and Dublin, is considered
by his co1nsrymen the greatest example of pri-
vate munifcence ever witnessed on the part of
a Briton during his lifetime. The form
his generosity takes is that which would
naturally suggest itself TO a man whose
wealth has come to him from the ''tup-
pence" and ''thrippence" paid by the poor
men and women of the great cities for their
daily pot of malt brew. He aims to
avoid duplicating the direction of the
Peabody fund. which benefits clerks and arti-
sans Of the better class. The very poorest of
the poor, who now cluster in novels, are the
ones whom he wishes to shelter in his tasteful
and comfortable homes.

This was repeated last night, and the corpse
was duly walked" The papers announced
this morning in due form the death and
proposed funeral Of Mr.. Mccarthy.
At ten O'Clock to-day ali arrangements had
been made and group of friends were sit
ting about the coffin. when they were star
tied almost out of their senses by noticing
the eyes of the corpse open and then close
and then the head bobbed up and looked
over the side of the coffin, and there were
hair-IaisiLg gasps. The watchers fed in ter
ror. The physicians We're summoned, the
funeral was postponed, and search is now
being made for the vital spark that caused
such sensation.

PousHKKErsiE, n. T., Oct. l9.-Shortly
after two clock this morning. three fisher
men, named James Race. aged Is John
Lewis, sgcd Is, and Thomas Coonsy, aged
IL. all residents Of Hudson. n. Y. were
walking on the Hudson River Railroad
track. across Hudson Bay. on their way to
their nets al the north end Of the bay. They
were. il Il supposed. on the up track. and
hearing train coming on lie same track,
stepped over on the down track just as an
extra freight train came along.
The engine of the train hit all three OF
them, throwing them forward on the track
directly in front of the locomotive, and then
the whole train ran over them.
The engineer Of the train did not know
that his engine had struck any one until he
arrived at the station between Hudson and
Poughkeepsie after daylight, when he found
the front end Of the engine smeared with
blood, and scattered with brains and flesh.
The under part Of The whole train was also
spa,tered with blood. Part of a human head
and a hsn1 were found on the COY :
catcher
Men were sent to the scene TO recover the
bodies. They were found strewn for son G
distance along the track. Ideniifc ton as
10 each victim was impossible II il thought
that two or three trains passed over the
bodies after the men had been killed.

Cows are creatures of habit With
their first calf everything is new and
strange to them. and they readily sub
NIT to be MIXED. and think il ali right.
but suffer them TO run with a calf the
first season and habit is established
that they will hardly forget in a life
time. II they ever after submit TO be
milked quietly it is evidently under pro
test But there is greater objection
than tbis-the calf running with the COW
draws the milk every hour or two. so
that the milk vessels are not distended
with milk. though the quantity secreted
in a given time may be large And yet
this is the natural time % distend the
milk ducts and expand the udder to a
good capacity FOR holding milk. When,
with the next calf. you require the milk

milk leaks from the teats. or. more like
ly. nature accommodates the quantity Of
the milk secreted 10 the capacity to re-
tain IL. and the COW becomes permanent
