A Celebrated Physician.

John Arbuthnot, the son Of Scotch
clergyman, was born near Montrose In
1867. He was educated at Aberdeen,
where he took his doctors degree. Going
to London to push his fortune, he soon
established o reputation as man of
science, and before he was so happy ac-
cident led to his fortune. Prince George
Of Denmark, the consort of Queen Anne,
was taken suddenly i'll at EPSON, and
Arbuthnot, who CHANGED TO be there, was
summoned TO attend him. The prince
was cured, and the doctor was appointed
one OF the court physicians. Swift says
that he was the queens favorite ply
stefan, and apartments were given him
in st. James palace. Thus distinguished
by the marks OF royal favor, Arbuthnot
acquired the friendship, not only of the
leading men of his party, as Harley and
Bolingbroke, but that of all the wits and
scholars of the time. He was their
trusted friend and adviser. He attended
Queen Anne in her last illness, and al
though he did not continue to bold his
official position in the court Of George l
he and his friend were Tories-he
maintained a great practice among the
nobility. He attended Gay and Con-
greve and Pope and Swift, and in the
verses addressed by Gay to Pope Arbuth-
not's company is said to drive sorrow
from the heart. "as all disease his medi-
cines dissipatc." Pope constantly ex-
pressed his gratitude to him, and paid
him some of his finest poetical conpli-
ments. The prologue to "The Satires, .
Pope's most perfect piece, is addressed
to Arbuthnot. Chicago Herald.

BASE BALL REFLECTIONS.
pY oua BASE BALL ''srRcIAL.o

BIZ OUR hASk BALL SPECIAL
All the bays are anxious for the season
to open.
There will be a game on April l4,h,
election day.
ssTrusty" has new ;itle---tha, of a
Drum Major.
The Association have again rented the
the grounds for another season.
This is going to be great year for base
ball, In spite Of ell that the croakers can
say.
We think 1t a pretty good thing II some
OF the lady friends Of the team would pre-
sent them with foul flags 10 be used this
season.
The gronnds will soon be put In good
shape and then tue members OF the team
will be able to go out and get themselves
in trim to play good ball.
Our boys seem TO be very cheerful this
season. The reason is that they all are
in demand by oil the best clubs around.
There is none, we thinx, that will leave
this city.
Some Of the men that de the most talk
ing about the team, give very little, II
anything. 1t would look better II some
Of them would pay up and become mem.
bers and talk afterwards.
Secretary Closson is about TO purchase
corn basket for use In carrying the
mail connected with his office. William
is highly elated over his office, and we
think he will make \ good officer.
Challenges have been received frem
most Of the frat class amateur and profess
sional teams in New Jersey and Pennsyl-
vauia. Secretary Closson Is well able to
handle them and will make nothing but
good dates for our team.
We understand there will be no team
at Pennington this season, on account Of
their best players having signed with
other clubs. We are sorry to hear this,
as we were in hopes that our boys would
have chance to play them during the
season. II is also stated that two OF their
players wish to sign with our team.
How is II we have no public grounds
We think 1t pretty good idea IL Com
pany G, the Gun Club and the ball team
would consolidate and purchase land for
that purpose. This would give them all
chance for exercise and amusement.
Co. G could use 1t for target practice and
drill; the Gun Club for club shooting and
contests with other clubs, and our base
ball for their numerous games, and there
is also lawn tennis and foot ball, TO which
the ground could be used. In q short
time II would pay for itself.

A pENNlNoToN IADr,s ADVENTURES.


A PENNINGTON LADY's ADVENTURE.
Almost Drowned In Deiuge In Arizona.
Hiss Mary L. Hanlon, of Pennington
and niece of Rev. Thomas Hanlon, has
had fearful experience In Arizona where
she has been visiting. Miss Hanlon went
west 10 the early fall with gentleman
| and lady who were friends. He was In
terested in irrigation, and after they had
spent some time in California they went to
Arizona. They made their home In
country place near big dam, upon which
the gentleman was at work. While the
gentleman aud his daughter were away
few weeks ago, and Miss Hanlon was
alone with a maid and young engineer,
tho dam burst. The rain had been inces-
SAINT, and the heavy volume of water
caused 1t.
iiic two wotIicH were Ia bed at The
time. They heard the young man calling
for them TO hurry or they would be lost.
Miss Hanlon ran down Stairs, but the maid
was SO paraly zed with fear that she
seemed unable TO move, though they
urged her TO come. Clad only In her
night dress and with bare feet, Miss Ham
Ion ran with the young man for the noun
talhs some distance away. A portion of
the water reached the mountain before
them, but the great mass came laundering
down so feet high, carrying houses, rocks
and trees before 1t, and they barely es.
capped this deluge. Up the mountain side
they rushed. until Miss Hanlon fell ex.
hansted. She begged her companion TO
| go on and leave her, but he bravey
grasped her In his arms and carried her
to place OF safety. The mountain side
was so steep that he was Obliged to make
n place In the earth for her to sit and
place stone at her feet, to keep her from
sliding down.
Her feet were torn by the sharp stones
and cactus. The young man took off his
own stockings and put them on her bleed.
ing feet aud then wrapped her 10 his coat,
while be walked to keep from freezing.
They were eighty miles from any town,
eight or ten miles from camp. They
finally saw dim light 10 the distance,
and after great difficulty reached camp
Of men. They gave their only blanket TO
the exhausted lady, and she slept by the
fire.,
An investigation the next day showed
that every one ut the place was drowned
except themselves. The heuse and stable
were swept out Of existence, and the
whole face Of the country was changed.
After staying two days with these men,
Miss Hanlon was taken ON horseback TO
big camp some distance away. Her
friends in Pennington have just received
letter from her.

The earliest form of ladies' headdress
Is said to have been the overchief or head
handkerchief. Then came the hood, uni
versally worn during the Fourteenth
century, q revival Of the Anglo-Saxon
head covering. The close fitting cap Is
said to have originated in decking the
corners OF the hood for the sake OF COM
fort and convenience. Chambers OBJ
serves that 1.-THE era of caps and hats is
referred to the year 1449, the first seen
in these parts Of the world being at the
entry Of Charles VII in Rouen; from
that time they began by little and little
to take the place Of hoods or chaperoons
that had bean used TIL then. -,

BANK ESCAPES DISASTER.
The Clinton National Bank narrowly
escapes disaster. 1t seems that Pidcock
has for number Of years held position
as director OF the bank by peculiar prac-
ticc. He was holder Of $4,000 of the
bank stock, which he assigned as collater.
al against his discounts. At the time of
the elections for new board of directors
this stock would be released to him until
after his reelection when It would again
be transferred TO the bank. Pidcock's
discounts at this bank were over $40, 900,
and as the banks capital is only 500, 900,
the attention Of the Comptroller of the
Currency at Washington was directed 10
the matter. A special examiner visited
the bank and compelled the officers to re-
place the Pidcock notes with better secur-
tiles, which were furnished by his friends.
Pidcock was also treasurer of the Read
ington Township Committee, and recently
bis friends were called upon to make up
deficit of $4,000. In his published report
for the fiscal year there is an item Of $5l5
paid 10 A. V. Honeyman which, 1t Is said,
has not been paid. Apoiher item is $50
paid to John W. Opie. This amount was
paid by Pidcock's check. which vent 10
protest, There are other peculiar items
la the report.
WHERE DID THR MONEY COT
The mysterious feature of the case Is
the disposition Pidcock made Of the mon-
ey. 1t Is the general belief that he has
|lnqnc Of 1t now. The proper solution pro-
badly Is that be began life heavily in debt
and his speculatlons proved Improbable
to so great degree that he was forced to
borrow TO keep up the interest. This ac-
cumulated so rapidly that he could no
longer carry the burden. He declares
that bis brother, the ex.Congressman, is
urging the creditors to push him this the
latter denies. As Congressman is to be
elected 10 this district next Fall the va
rlous transactions may be recounted then.

Matters were brought tn focus Ia this
wise: Elisha shower, a wealthy farmer,
loaned Pidcock 81, 900 about six years
ago. Pidcock's brother was then surety
upon the note, bnt since the rupture be-
tween the brothers the note has been un-
secured. Shower began to think that the
transaction was unbusinesslike, and about
the middle Of February asked Pidcock 10
secure him. This the latter refus d TO do,
but Shower insisted that he should give
him mortgage upon his house and lot IN
the village and offered him another 81 900
II he wanted it, and make the mortgage
81. 500. This Pidcock again refused to
do, but he then paid Shower 5000 on &C.
count and promised the remainder on
April |. Shower became suspicious and
set about securing list Of Pldcock's
liabilities. The resnltso startled him that
be placed the claim id lawyers hands
with instructions to proceed TO collect VI
once. Proceedings were begun, and a
meeting of the lawyer and PIdcock and
s. X. Large occurred at Pennington.
After stormy interview Sheriff Cox was
induced to loan the 81, 100 needed to sat.
isfy the claim.
Pidcock's liabilities are placed at be-
tween $4,000 and 500, 900; assets nothing.
The largest creditor is his brother.in- law,
8. X. Large, who Is said to be endorsed
to the amount Of $4,000. Peter W. NIL
lex is an endorser for 81, $50 and Alexan-
der Teeier for smaller sum. These two
last named have transferred their property
