man with large strip of white plaster
covering bis nose and extending up over
one eye, limped In on the arm OF waiter
and gYoaued - he took Ills seat. He ate
with one hand. The other was disabled.
Three other young men came in slowly,

was what 10 known In pugilistic psrlance ~
"sroggy." But his spirit was high, and he
led the fun during most of the dinner,
though his appearance was calculated to
draw tears from the most heartless
OF observers. A solemn and rather over
trained young man among the players had
been 20 roughly handled that he could cat

The Slavin-McAuliGe fight proved the
greatest surprise OF the year in pugilistic
circles. Every ono seemed so confident
that the mission Boy" would win that
his defeat in less han seven minutes, and
before the conclusion OF the second round,
WIS a thunderbolt even to his enemies
McAuli1fe and his hackers were so conf
dent that they put up n barrel OF money
and conceded almost every disputed point
rather than allow the match to fall through,
and then-well, "the Mission Boy" hardly
seemed to be Sin It" after the first round.
The only men nov in the arena left to
claim Slavin's attention are sullivan and
jackson. AS McAuliffe gave jackson a
hard fight, Slavin's recent victory is proof
positive that be is the colored pugilist's
equal, and that in all probability he would
give the great Sullivan an interesting
battle. Slavin is only "a years Of age. He
was born at Maitland, N. s. W., and be-
came successfully a blacksmith, a gold
digger and an all round athlete. At an
early age be fought his first battle, and
one after another the best men in Aus.
trAlia, Peter Jackson excepted. succumbed
to his prowess. In December, 1889, he
fought Jem Smith to a draw, but on ac-
count of Smiths unfair tactics the Pelican
club declared Slavin champion OF Eng
land. which title he still holds.

TEN MONTHS OF CONGRESS-.

during the ten months that congress
has been in session it has been chiefly en-
gagged 10 the consideration of ways and
means of comforting unjust privileges upon
certain favored interests. NominallY a
body representing the people of the Unit
cd States, il has in fact acted only in be-
half eff a class, says the Chicago Herald
A congress of the confederated trusts
and combines called to consider the best
methods of limiting production and in
crossing prices would not have been more
unmindful Of the interests Of the consum-
err. The representatives of the people
have bsen silenced exactly as the Amer
lean Iron and Steel association or the
presidents Of the coal roads in solemn con-
claye Cor the purpose of deyisinE new
schemes of plumber would silencea man
who appeared before them to plead the
cause of the oppressed Democratic rep
resentatives OF the people in this
house have beon used to fill quo
runs but they have not been
heard. An interest that has become so

and corrupt the ballot does not hesitate to
stife free speech. Such liberties as the
minority still retain are held by permits
sion of the ruling class, subject to with
drawal at any m when thew may
became dangerous to the new sovereignty.
That these are not idle words is proved
by the record of this congress. II has
not been a free agent. 1t is no more an
American congress than the car council
OF mailed favorites aud lackeys is n Rus
sian congress. 1t is no more a represent
alive body thAn the national assembly Of
France, t~errorized by a Danton and a Ro-
bespierre, was a representative body. Its
minority has been throttled and gyved,
driven 10 the committee rooms and locked
in. silenced when monopoly so ordered,
but recorded as voting. though not voting,
when monopoly needed assistance. Not
an honestly elected Democrat among them
has been secure in his seat fer day.
Like the members OF the French assem-
bly, under the Terror, they have not known
at what minute they would be attached or
how soon the Ruillotine would clank.
Violence has been the rule and every new
emergency into which monopoly has been
thrown has called forth unique villainies
to meet it
This is not popular government. 1t Is
an irresponsible tyranny. The object that
it has in view is plumber. To promote its
ends some of the chief safeguards Of leg
~islative liberty have been borne down. To
defend its shameful course during the past
ten months every sophistrY that the
minds Of knaves can %coniure up will be
employed. The most inhuman tyrants
that the world has ever known have made
a virtue OF appealing to the people occa-
s~ionally. So now we shall see the bullies
and the robbers fresh from their Wash
Ington infamies making their regular bien-
NAL obeisance to the people whom they
have oppressed and all but forgotten. The
important question is: WIN they escape
the punishment that they deserve, and,
thus treasured, return to their seats to
engage in new crimes against mankind2

royal highness-
She possesses many beautiful ornaments,
among which none Is more effective than
n quaint old fashioned set of amethysts
and pearls The amethysts are n deep vo-
let hue and pear shaped, almost as large
as the end of one's little finger. There is a
necklace and pendant, bracelet and but
terhy for the hair. These gems were an
heirloom to the lady who presented them
to the singer. Miss Huntingdon wears
them with n white satin gown. and the
effect is very fine.
The lady's pet superstition is over the
number %" She has signed and begun
so many successful engagements, and
has had otherwise good luck on that
date, that she has come to regard
the number As her mascot Very many
OF her jewels are made in the form
OF the figure 80" and she has numerous
rings-three in numher-joined together in
one. Detto, her dog, wears three golden
balls dangling from his collar. She sailed
for America on the third of the month, and
was wild with delight when she found her
napkin ring on shipboard numbered 49,"

quiet dresser, in no way advertising by her
gowns that she is a professional She is

posed about her whittier shoulders. So
stately is sho in this costume that when
she first donned II she was given by her in
innate friends the soubriquet of "Queenie,"
which pet name has chung TO her ever since.
Miss Huntington speaks very modestly
Of her success in London, and fervently
hopes that Americans will like her as well
as her English friends. She told me that
she was having a theatre built In London
which Is to have many American features,
though Of course retaining the pit, us she
l~aughingly said n could not fancy Lon

EDITH SESSIONS TuPPER
, 1890-10-07

Persons whose blood is thin, digestion
weak and liver sluggish, are extra-liable
to the attacks of malarial disease. The
most trif1lng exposure may, under such
conditions, infect a system which. il
healthy, would resist the miasmatIc faint.
The only way to secure immunity from
malaria in localities where 1t is prevalent,
is to tone and regulate the system by i'm
proving weakened digestion. enriching the
blood, and giving a wholesome impetus to
hillary secretion. These results are ac-
complislsed by nothing so effectively as
Hostetfer's Stomach Bitters, which long
experience has proved TO be the most re-
liable safeguard against fever aud ague
and kindred disorders. as well as the best
remedy tor them. The Bitters are, more
over. an excellent invigcrant Of the
organs OF ~urination. and an active depur-
emit, eliminating from the blood those acid
impurities which originate rheumatic all

and sister-the former a stout, gray haired
dowager, and the latter n stately woman,
who strongly resembles the singer. Miss
Huntington looks a trihe like Nordica.
but Is built on a more generous plan. and
has coutrived during her London life to
get her figure in just the shape which we
notice in all pictures of professional IN
glish beauties. There is the extremely
long, slim waist and square shoulders,
which were well set of by a Liberty gown
Of gendarme blue, ghrnished with velvet
Of a darker tint. Her large, smooth white
hands, with long, aristooratic fingers, were
blazing with gems. chiefly noticeable among
which were the sapphire and diamond
rings given her by her dearest" the Count
ess Hatzfeldt.
Miss Huntington is a very handsome
girl, whose green eyes. full OF Gre, are shad-
ed by long black lashes. Her thick black
eyebrows meet over "A somewhat audacious
nose. She has g%listening teeth and a pair
Of tempting dimples, and her ash blonde
hair is soft, fluffy and tossed up in a care
less fashion most becoming to her face.
Her complexion is dazzling, and she pre-
serves its beauty by n free use OF cocoa but
ter and warm water So absolutely lawless
is her skin that her photographs are never
