SUICIDE BY AMMONIA.
The Terrible Agony Does Not Prevent
Its Use.

Iu6 lGTTlDie hKOuY LOGS IN OF FTeVent
It's Use.
No poison brings death with more
madening agony than ammonia, but that
fact does not seem to discourage the sui
eide. The man Harrowitz, who deliber-
ately swallowed fatal dose of the drug
in New York recently, is only one of the
many who have gone the ammonia route
to death in spite OF the excruciating pain.
DR.. Blyth has recorded thirty cases of
ammonia poisoning in the small dondon
district, of which he is health officer
Professor Mitchell mentions twenty-five
cases, and four have occurred during the
short time Dr. Jenkins has been con-
nected with the coroner's Office in New
York.
Cases of slow poisoning from ammonia
are of constant occurrence among men
who work in its manufacture, or even in
decomposing substances which give it
off in considerable quantities. Ammo
MIA, slowly and from day to day taken
into the system, causes the complexion
to loose IFS freshness, and the skin of
men who get heavily impregnated with
it has disagreeable blotched and dis
colored appearance.
Taken into the stomach from day to
day in even the small quantities used to
adu.terated food, such as bakine powder,
it not only Injuries the complexion but
attacks the lining of the stomach, and is
the source of much general i'll health.
The recent rapid increase in the use
of ammonia for various purposes, and
the consequent increase in its manufact-
ure, have made it one Of the most easily
obtained poisons and, although every
body is familiar with it in some form,
there is surprising amount Of ignor-
ance of its dangerous qualities. Its use
as an adulterant in any food preparation
is simply crime, and as crime should
be punished

1t has been suggested by some of the
merchants of the city that there be a
general closing of business houses ON
the afternoon of each day of the en-
campment. 1t is an idea worthy OF
adoption, for if such an agreement can
be made and generally understood, il
will give the business men and their
employees an opportunity to witness the
ball games, the competitive drill, and the
other important features of the en-.
campment, without inconvenience to
anyone. Some one start the paper.

II. J. Hotchkiss, II prominent official
of the B. & NJ. Railroad Co., was in Gus
ter the early part of this week in quest
of mineral specimens, TO be exhibited at
the Ottumwa coal palace, and other east
ern expositions this fall. On Wednes-
day, in company with Messrs. s. X.
Shankland and j. +. Pitcher, Mr.. Il otch-
kiss visited number OF mines in the
vicinity of Custer, and secured fine
collecti on of gold, silver and tin speci-
mems. These, together with large
quantity Of pink and white quartz, lime
stone crystals, petrifactlons. etc., will
make splendid showing. These, with
the specimens Mr.. Ii. has picked up in
other parts of the Hills, will be labeled
with the name and locality in which
they are found, and given prominent
place wherever exhibited. This move
on the part of the b. & NJ. is in keeping
with its usual policy, and another evil
dence Of the enterprising spirit of its
officials. The company desires TO give
the east a little knowledge Of the re-
sources and wealth of the country
through which it's lines pass, and the
plan they have adopted will prove a
practical and potent one.
