A Tough One.

A dispatch from st. Ignace, Mich,
under date of February 10th, tells
this rather tough one: A horrible
accident is reported from Sugar Is
land by DR.. Lamereaux.
Barnabas Gilroy a blacksmith,
aged 40 years, had for years been a
heavy drinker, though never incapa-
citated for work. Last Wednesday
he was bending over his forge when
a flame leaped from the fire and
struck him squarely in the face. Gill
roy gave horrifying scream and fell
to the floor writhing in agony. DR..
Lemeraux was summoned and ex-
animation revealed to him that the
man was burning internally. Smoke
was issuing from his mouth and he
begged piteously that he might be kill
ed. Every effort was made to afford
relief, but without avail, the combus-
ton continuing until great pieces of
Gilroy's flesh dropped from his legs
and arms. On Thursday he died.
The physician says that the liquor
which Gilrop had drank left great
amount of gas in his stomach, and
that gas was ignited by the flame
from the forge.

Hydrophobla . Great Rarity.

A case of genuine hydrophobia is said
to be really great rarity. London
doctors came to this conclusion several
years ago. DR.. N. s. Davis, of Chicago,
an ex-president of the American Medic
al Association. and practitioner of
many years experience, said recently
that he had never seen but one case of
supposed hydrophobia. In all cases of
dog bite he had directed patients to
keep the wound covered by = cloth
saturated with solution of carbolic
acid and hyposulphite of soda, and to
take in water ten grains Of the hy-
posulphite of soda three times = day,
continuing 1t three or four weeks.
This treatment he had used for twenty
years, and he had never lost . case.
The result would seem to indicate more
favorable features than M. Pasteur's
method. .-Indianapolis Journal ..:

A CHICAGO WEDDING.
Mr.. Drestoeef Assures Himself That the

Mr.. Drestneef Assures Himself That the
Next Ceremony Will BE His.
II will"
Softly yet distinctly came Birdie Get
tyfender's answer to the question of the
venerable minister: "Wilt thou have
this man to be thy welded husband?"
Softly though the words we're spoken.
they fell with crushing force on the
heart of F. Longfellow Drestbeef, who
viewed the proceedings from behind
pillar just under the gallery.
Mr.. Drestbeef was one of Chicago's
rising young business men, He had
made much money, and the manufacture
OF lucre was still in progress.
He loved the fair Birdie, but his hated
rival, Mr.. Bucephalus Steemrendered,
had been ahead of him in proposing
marriage. As Brides motto was: First
come. first served" she had said yes to
Mr.. Steemrendered, even IS she now
had said yes to the minister.
Birdie knew that Mr.. F. Longfellow
Drestbeef loved her, for he had told her
so. He had told her this only twenty
four hours later than the period of Mr..
Steemrendered's avowal; and Birdie had
replied: ..... -....-...-- ....-...
''Well, Longie, you are q day late.
Had you spoken yester morn, or even as
late as seven p. M, it might have been
as you wish"
"But you'll give me the next chance,
won't you?" asked the young lover, i'm
petuously.
YES" replied Birdie.
I have said that the bride was fair.
This was no mere figure Of speech such
as is used daily by the society reporters
I repeat it, Birdie was fair.
Why should she not have been? She
was young. Only twenty-five summers
had passed over her head, and the man
at whose side she stood at the chancel
was only her sixth husband.
Four Of Mr.. Steemrendered's predeces.
sors were at the ceremony, and they, to
man, wished him Joy.
The other was dead.
And now the procession comes down

In the vestibule there are hurried
