The public have become familiar with cases
Of arsenical poisoning from wall paper, but it
is not generally known, perhaps, says the Bos-
ton Post, that the coverings of furniture, such
as chairs and sofas and the hangings used for
portieres, may also be the means Of conveying
poisonous matter of the same character into
the human system. recent case of this kind
has come to my knowledge which shows tine
insidious character of the poisoning and the
length of time which it may take to produce
its deleterious effects. A well-known Bostonan
was attacked by sciatica, which resisted every
remedy employed by physicians to combat it.
The persistency with which it held on led to
suspicious that something in the appurtenances
of his city house might be responsible for it.
As the walls of the house were painted, not
papered there was nothing to be looked for in
that direction, but an examination of the
coverings of the furniture revealed the exist
ence of large quantities of arsenic.
The upholstery of an arm chair in which the
gentleman was in the habit of sitting was found
to be full of this poisonous substance: the same
was true of the sofas and some Turcoman
hangings which had been made into portiere
The arsenic did not show itself, as is often the
case, in the form of powder on shaking the arti-
cles in which it was found, but the physicians
said, was precipitated in the form of gas into
the room. What made the case especially no
ticeable was the fact that the materials contain
ing the noxious substance had been in use for
fourteen years before producing any apparent
injurious effect. Sciatica, of course, came as a
result of the lowering of the tone Of the system
and would not naturally excite suspicion of
arsenical poisoning, but nausea and indiges-
ton, which are the specific effects of such poi
soning were the means of discovering il. In
this case the throat of the patient was not
affected, as is apt to be the case with the VIC
Tins of arsenic inhalation.

A PUBLIC BUILDING VETO.


Why the President Thinks Bar Harbor Does
Not Need New Post once.
The President today returned TO the Senate
without his approval the bin for the erection
Of public building at Bar Harbor. In vetoing
the bill the President nys: The statement Of .
few facts viii shsw, think, that the public
needs do not justify the contemplated expendi-
ture of $751; 900 for the erection Of public
building at Bar Harbor. Only one public
Office, the post Office, il to be accommodated.
1t appears from q report Of the Postmaster
General that the rent paid by the United States
for room containing S75 square feet Of floor
space was, in 1888, $500, and the expenditure for
fuel and lights eco. One clerk was employed in
the post Office and no carrier. The gross postal
receipts for that year were 81 900. Bar Harbor
is almost wholly a summer resort. The popula-
ton of the town of Eden-of which Bar
Harbor forms q part-as taken by the
census enumeration was less than 1000
During one-quarter Of the year this population
is largely increased by summer residents and
visitors, but for the other three-quaiters it is
not much above the census enumerst lion. The
postal receipts for 1890 by quarters show that
for more than half the year the grtss receipts
Of the post Office are about 80 per day. The
salary of the janitor for the new building would
be more than twice the present cost to the gov
eminent for rent, fuel and lights. I cannot
believe that upon reconsideration the Congress
will approve the contemplated expenditure.

looked around the town in the afternoon and
located house that seemed promising, and
about quarter past the next morning went
in through the back door. The lower part Of
the house was nicely furnished, but didn't
want any bric-a-brac and went right up stairs
and turned into the first chamber I came to.
There was very dim light burning in the ROOM
but 1t wasn't light enough to see by and I
turned on my glim. The light Just happened
to strike the head of the bed and it woke up a
man: He sat up and said as cool as could be:
Well, what is it?' and I told him wanted
whatever dust he might have there, and 1
wanted it soon. I had met cool men before
and wasn't going to stand any bluff.
"He got out of bed and started for bureau
in the corner of the room. l kept the light on
him all the time. He was a well-built young
fellow, not more than twenty-fOur. He had a
manly sort of a look about him and / was al
most ashamed to rob him. When he moved
up toward the bureau l moved up, too so as
not to give him chance to open window
and holler or to get any other drop on me
where l couldn't reach him. He had got about
one more step to make to reach the bureau and
ne was moving along as quiet as a man could,
when, quicker n lightning, he made jump
and butted me square off my feet before I
knew what he was doing. NV lamp fell one
way and my jimmy the other, and the next Sec
ond he fell on me so heavy that thought he
would grind me through the floor.
II had a gun with me, but didn't even have
a chance to get hold of it. He grabbed both
my wrists when we FELL and then somehow he
managed to hold both Of them with one hand
and with the other he grabbed me by the
neck, and he just simply dragged me- out and
threw me down stairs. l could hear myself
banging all the way down, and expected to
be all broke up when 1 got there, but L wasn't.
l was bruised, but all right. When l got up on
my feet looked up to the head of the stairs
where the man was. His face had q serious
kind of a look on it, but when he saw wasn't
much hurt he smiled and said:
will you kindly close the doo- when you go

WILL FIGHT TO THE END.
The Directors of the North British Railway
Will Prosecute the Strikers.

The Directors of the North British Railway
Will Prosecute the Strikers.
GLASGOW, Dec. 24-An important meeting
Of the board of directors of the North British
Railway Company has been held. After the
meeting adjourned it was announced that the
company had determined to prosecute the strik-
ers to the fullest extent of the law. No trouble
or expense, it is added, will be spared by the
company In its efforts to obtain redress
for what Is classed as an unwarranted inter
ference with its business. The North British
directors have also resolved to completely close
their railroad lines rather than yield to the
strikers demands
The strikers have been considerably enraged
by the announcement made today that the rail-
road officials refuse to pay the strikers any por-
ton OF the wages which may now be due to
them This action, according to the railroad
officials, Is taken upon legal advice, pending q
decision from the courts as to the validity Of
the contracts existing between the company
and its employees. This step is generally
classed as being a most arbitrary proceeding
upon the part OF the railroad authorities and is
also said to be probably an illegal one. In any
case the step taken greatly increases public SYM
patty for the strikers. 1t is also thought that
this action upon the part of the railroad COM
pany may excite the strikers to deeds OF vio-
lence.
The Northeastern Railroad Company's board
of directors has also held meeting. 1t is
understood that these directors are trying to
arrange for a conferen between themselves
and committee representing the strikers in
the hope that some understanding may be
arrived at between them by which the strike can
be terminated SO far as the Northeastern road is
concerned.

A GERMAN MISER.
He Starved Himself to the Last and Left .
Chestful of Riches.

He Starved Himself to the Last and Left q
Chestful of Riches.
A typical miser died two weeks ago in Baden
near Vienna. His story is told in the New York
Sun as follows: His name was VIM. Weberex
He appeared in Baden nine years ago and
rented the cheapest vacant house in town. It
had but one story and only three rooms.
The first evening after his arrival he went to
the city park and picked up the acquaintance
of Theresa Lasch, a seventy-year-old widow,
engaged her to keep house with him. and was
never known to speak with any one in the
streets of Baden afterward. For nine years he
allowed none save her to enter the house. She
bought him the barest necessaries of life daily,
and left them on his threshold. He ate food
that beggar would reject, slept on loose straw
and paid his one acquaintance just one cent a
day for her services. He never had his house
cleaned or windows washed, never changed
the straw of his bed and never had q new gar
ment while in Baden.
A few days before the beginning of his last
illness fire burned down barn very near his
shanty. The neighbors hurried to his house
to help him save what he might value among
his apparently valueless possessions. He barred
the door, however, and, brandishing an old
cavalry sword behind the window. shouted that
he would burn with his house before he would
allow any one to rob him.
When he fell i'll he allowed the old woman
who had brought him his food for nine years to
enter to care for him on the condition that she
would not charge him extra. He had no doc
tor, no medicine. He ordered that his funeral
be made to cost as little as $5, hungered and
prayed and died with the lie on his lips that the
S35 he had just given the old woman was all he
had in the world. In his big chest, hidden
under the floor beneath the straw on which he
died, were found $4,000 worth of coupons,
900 shares of Belgian railway stock at 500 q
share and some $4,000 in gold, silver and
notes. A last viii and Testament, which the
old man had apparently forgotten, was also
found in the chest II bequeathed to his
mother in Zierke, Germany, u, 900, and the
rest to the village.

MAKING AN EXPLANATION.

A Cheerful Way of Using BARRIERS Chair.
From the Detroit Free Press.
I was getting shaved in a one-chair barber
shop in mountain town in Kentucky and there
was only one other man in the shop beside the
barber. The process was about half through,
when some one was heard walking on the We
randa which surrounded the shop, and pretty
soon a wild-looking face peered through the
window.
"Say, Bill, does he'un want you?" asked the
barber OF the other man.
"Who all is it?'
Simmons, l reckon"
"He'un can't want me. Inever did nothin' to
him.
Stranger. does he'un want your asked the
b rber of me.
Who? Simmons as you call him2''
'Yes"
"Never heard of him. Who is he, anyhow
ooh, he'un lives back we're bit. Great hand
to shute. Had any trouble with him?"
"No."
well, I'll 20 out and explain to he'un. Might
shute through the window if didn't"
He put down his razor and went out, and
when he returned Simmons was with him. The
shooter stepped around and took square look
at me and then heaved a sigh Of disappoint-
ment and said to the barber:
"'Tain't he IN, Sam, but so mighty clus to it
that might hev popped through the glass;"
Never does any hurt to explain natter"
said the barber in a reflective way as Simmons
went out. HE un killed two men in this chair
and don't like the muss of it, That's what
went out to explain--H You was he'un's meat,
he un was to wait and drap you outside"
