Turkish baths for horses are not only
given in Milwaukee, but they are quite
popular and are very generally made use

establishment Of the kind in the west.
The place was designed by DR.. T. T.
Toussaint, and the baths are given under
his personal supervision. Being q vet
Urinary surgeon, Dr. Toussaint first made
use of the bath for the cure Of certain
diseases, but afterward the place became
popular among horse owners, who send
their favorite blooded animals for a reg
ular weekly bath.
The bath house is designed much the
same as those which are patronized by
humanity. only on a larger scale. There
are three rooms connected with wide
doors that shut 80 closely az 10 be alrnos,

TANEY COUNTY TROUBLES.

OZARK, July 15.-Lewis Baker and two
of the Whites were arrested in fancy
county for being accessories to the murder
of Sheriff Branson and Ed Funk. They
could not give bond and were sent to jail
The county court of fancy county met
yesterday to appoint sheriff. The Bald
Knobbers wanted Mat Day, the old coroner,
and the militia was pulling hard for
their man, James Jamison, who was APP
pointed.
James Miles is improving very fast and
will soon be able to stand his preliminary
trial.
Another murder is supposed to have
been committed in Stone county. Some
months ago man by the name of Terry
was caught breaking into store where
postoffice was kept. Terry was arrested
and brought to the Ozark jail, and was
taken out by a writ of habeas corpus, and
in the trial at this court was not convicted
A United States marshal came down and
had him held for breaking into post
office, and some days ago the states wit
ness in the case was missing, and has not
yet been found. A young man from Stone
county says that if they will keep him
from being mobbed he will find the dead
body of the man who turned states
evidence against Terry.

a school or Motherhood.

There are already established abroad
certain schools for mothers, in which the
duties of motherhood are taught, together
with all the technicalities of work con-
nected with those duties and various Of
the moralities of the situation, including
not only the proper training and treat
ment Of children in other than physical
matters, but training also of the mo-
theirs themselves in the difficult arts of
knowing how to refuse, to prohibit and
punish, without injuring either the moral
nature of the children or themselves.
Unless we are. willing to let the state
take charge of the children eventually
and relieve the mothers of their dear
duties, as some social reformers, so called,
have dared to suggest, there are plainly
things in which these mothers should
perfect themselves in order to do justice
to the children and to the future careers
of those whose charge they have assumed.
Were such schools established among
ourselves, it would not be the material
part of the work and duty, in which we
should advocate effort half so much as
the inlmaterial, that immaterial which,
under certain views, becomes the one
material.
All very well as it might be that the
mother should go to school, in order to
learn how to cut out the little frocks and
pinafores, make the little fannels, knit
the little socks, and that with the least
effort and waste conceivable; very well,
too, that she should be taught how to
give the bath, to keep the skin whole
some, to judge of the food requisite and
to prepare it, to remember the first treat
ment of the little sicknesses before the
physician can be summoned, and to
make herself competent nurse for such
occasion; and indispensable as it is also
that she should be informed as well as to
the food and sleep and exercise necessary
for herself in order to perform her
own part wholesomely-it is still more
absolutely necessary that she should be
taught also how to treat the child's pro-
pensities toward wrong doing, and to
encourage all its tendencies toward well
doing; what to do if the child's magma
ton runs to lying, how not TO intimidate

A STRANGE MARRIAGE:

| ONANCoCK, Va, July 15.-Arthur Coard,
susceptible old bachelor living near Ac-
comac Court House, went to Baltimore
about two weeks ago and surprised his
friends and neighbors by returning on
Thursday last with wife and her mother.
They went to Coard's home where, accord
ing to his own confession, he had
told them he owned farm worth
| S7500O. Not finding this true, the disap-
| pointed mother-in-law took her daughter
and returned to Baltimore by the first
steamer leaving after her arrival. Coard
accompanied them as far as Onancock on
their return and took very cold and
formal leave OF them at the wharf.
Coard gives very remarkable account
of the manner in which he wooed and won
his wife He says the young ladY's
mother took him to lawyer in
Baltimore, who informed him that
the laws of that city required man
to be confined in the same house with his
betrothed for eight days before he could
marry her. He was accordingly shut up
in the house and never allowed to see his
intended or to go on the street except in
company with his prospective mother-ln-
law, who always kept an eye on him. 1t
was during these days of confinement that
he RECALLED them with stories of his fabu-
lous wealth in lands and oyster beds on
end of the eight days the marriage
ceremony WAS performed, but
the wiley mother-in-law refused to allow
her daughter to leave unless she herself
went with her. She took charge of her on
the boat, occupying the same state room
with her, and forced the groom to go
below.
Coard says he does not regret what he
has done, and if his wife comes back he is
ready to treat her with due affection, but
he does not proprose to cry if she never
comes back. He says he has managed to
of life as bachelor and thinks he can
finish the rest very well as a grass widower.

that led TO the self-stabbing was the I'M

resulted in her stabbing herself. The

upright platform. The top OF the table
is in perpendicular position. one side of

it are drawn wide strips of heavy canvas,

THE CLOSING OF AN IMPORTANT
OUTLET.

The blockade of a port is not more in
furious to its commerce than is even the
temporary obstruction of the bowels to the
health OF the system. Constipation neces-
sarily arrests the secretion of bile. impedes
and disorders digestion, and poisons the
circulation. The safest and most effective.
as it is also the most genial, laxative and
anti-bilious medicine in existence is Hos
letters Stomach Bitters, and it is more
than probable that its sovereign efficacy as
preventive and remedy for intermittent
and remittent fever is largely due to its
retormatory action upon the liver an or
gan prejudicially involved in all malarial
complaints. Persons with a tendency also
to rheumatic, neuralgia and kidney
trouble cannot do better than to antago-
nize it with HOstetter's Stomach Bitters.
