Can't Abbevillc Have n Chance to
GROW?

There are hundreds of acres of waste aud
improbable land lying in close proximity to
the public square, and if any tract was laid
off into streets and suitable lots. q number OF
people might become buyers at public OF
private sale.
If the owner of any desirable tract, which
lies suitably for cutting up into building lots
feared that he would not get full value for his
lots. he could reserve to himself each alter
nate lot, and when a buyer became interested
with him he would be anxious to assist others
in boosting his own part of the town.
There are several places on which new and
nice settlements could be made, and now Is
the time to make the move.

Yes; fully as serious with us as is the "hub-

water, to exclude the air, and the mans
heart, being the stronger, sent his blood
through the tube into the patients
body. The tube was kept in warm
cloths so that the temperature of the
blood would not lie diminished. AS the
quantity Of blood IN the patient was
slowly increased, her body became
warm, and in about ten minutes the
impulse of the mans vigorous heart
had been communicated to the patients
weak one, and it was restored to nearly
its normal beat.
The Change Was Wond erfnl. :,
Her condition was immediately I'M
proved, and she was restored to con-;
ciousness. The patient could be made
inSenSible by pressing upon the tube,
which would stop the flow OF blo0da
The man could not give up all hts
blood, and as he was willing to do any
thing asked of him, an opening was
made in the vein in the left arm at the
elbow, and a similar opening was made
in the girls left arm and vein, and
these were connected 10y a flexible
tube and ivory plugs. This es+i
tablished venous as well as an:
arterial circulation, and the blood
which left the mans body
through the artery. and was robbed OF
its vitality in che girls feeble frame
was returned to his body through the
venous tube to be strengthened and
nourished. The girl thus became part
of the mans circulating system, and
a portion of his life ana strength was
given to her with every heartbeat.
She became strong under the influence,
and he did not apparently lose much Vi
tality. He had an enormous appetite,
and ate enough for four men. Where
ever the patient was taken the man had
to go also, and the situations some
times were awkward. This artl-
fetal union was kept up for three
months. and the patient gained forty
pounds and corresponding degree of
strength. The tubes were not disc0n-
nected until last week, when for the
first time the tube could be pressed
without any material change in the girl,
which showed that her heart was strong
enough to take care of its own circula---
ton. For two weeks she was fed
through the hole in her side. and since
then she has taken food through her
mouth without any trouble, and the
hole has been closed. She will go home
next week.

A Story og President WOOlsey, of
Yale, and Judge BIackman.
New York World.
The lvte Ex-President Woolsey, of
Yale University, lived on Church street
in the aristocratie portion of the Elm
City. There President Woolsey erected
a modest twostory wooden dwelling.
A gentleman named Biackman,
prominent business man and Judge
of New Haven. went TO live in the in the
vicinity. Mr.. Blackman was a graduate
of Yale but President WOolSey did not
reconiZe him on the street. He attr
ibuted this neglect to the fact that the
President did not like. his Democratic
politics. He waited many years to get
''eyen" with the President, and it oc-
cured when the late GOVERNOR James
E. English was Chairman OF the board
of selectmen. A number of Yale stud
entS wanted to be made voters, and it
was agreed by the town officials to hear
time. President Woolsey was present
to identify the young men. AS Presid-
ent WooISey offered himself as a witness,
Judge Blackman, his former pupil and
offended friend. asked him his name.
"WoOlsey," replied the President.
"rhank YOU said Mr.. Blackman;

A CORNER IN SILVER.
Financial Man5puIators Hold All
the White Metal.

NAkC "
WASHINGTON, May Measurements
have been made here during the last
two or three days to the effect that a
large corner in silver has been
contaminated in New York. The
uncertainty which has exist
ed in regard to silver legis-
IatiOn has helped the manipulators
greatly and the governments now COM
PEELED to bring its silver from England.
The amount of bullion held by the New
Workers is estimated by some of the
most eXtravagant at $4O,O00.000 in
bullion and certificates, but the con-
SerVative and trustworthy accounts
place the total amount of bullion at ST.
100000. At this season of the year
this is a large amount, because
the large mines in Colorado and
Nevada CLOSED during tie winter
months and the output is not so great.
While these figures would cover the
bullion. it may be increased several
millions of dollars by the humber of
silver certificates which have also been
purchased by the manipulators, 1t is a
fact that the government has been COM
PEELED to buy its silver in London, and
TO complete the deal, the New
York. people have been keeping
even with the government in
purchases abroad. They have
almost covered the market in London.
1t is also fact that the silver offered
the government at the assay Office in
New York has been at a premium of
from two 10 three cents. Your CORE
spOndent called on the director of the
mint, Leach, this morning and Ques-
toned him regarding the matter, lie
did not deny the rumorS of corner.
but he would saw that no silver had
been offered the government at New
York, and that it had bought bullion IN
London ana was storing 1t in the assay
Office in New York. 1t is also storing
what silver it had in the West and issu-
ing certificates.

resolution adopted by the house in
curing what. postof1iee inspectors or
special agents have been employed to
investigate the standing and claims
OF rival applicants for appoint

Il know of no Instance where an in

been detailed merely to ascertain
whether or not an applicant was Re-
publican. Democrat or a member OF any
other party, unless it was where a
charge of deception had been made in
his making the appointment" The

generals for years past.

against Cassius M. Upton to recover
damages for malicious suing out and
prosecuting writ of attachment, Judge
Kelly filed an order deciding to grant a
new trial unless Mcdowell shall con-
sent to reduction of the verdict of the
jury to 800. The action was begun in
the municipal court to recover balance
alleged to be due for books sold. Judge
Kelly in memorandum says there was
no evidence OF undue harassing in maxi
ing the levy of attachment, and no
proof of damages to goods or injury OF,
insult to Mcdowell or his family her
than the levy. While there is evidence
warranting the jury in finding verdict
in favor OF the plaintiff, yet the dam
ages were excessive. The verdict of
the jury was for S207.
