see him. Tt will be several days before
he will be able to get out.
Officer Mclaughlin believes he en-
countered early in the evening, on Front
street, the four men engaged in the job.
One of them was club-footed tough,
whose description tallies with that of the
lame man who assaulted Donnelly.
Shortly after the occurrence at Scroggs'
saloon three men. including a cripple,
were seen at the depot apparently waiting
for the Oregon train, which was q little
behind time, and it is now believed they
were OF the party engaged in the assault
and robbery.
Yesterday Officer Mclaughlin met a
rough-looking man whom he recognized
as one of the gang he had talked with on
Front street, and arrested him. He gave
the name of John Conners, and is
thought to have been one of the pair who
stood guard outside the saloon door while
the others did the work inside.
In that case Donnelly will not be able
to identify him, and unless he gets scared
and confesses it will be difficult to prove
his connection with the gang.
Last night a friend of the victim of the
midnight assault visited the City Prison
while somewhat under the influence of
liquor, and asked Jailer Clark to please
allow him to get at the scoundrel as he
desired to kill him.
The officer convinced the impulsive
vigilante that his thirst for gore could not
be gratitied in that way.

Difficulties in Helping the Poor.

To him-I speak of mankind generally
who has no sense of hunlor, the visiting
Of the poor must be one of the most irk-
some of those seven corporal works of
mercy which the church enjoins upon
her faithful children. 1t is narrowing to
the very soul to dwell upon the sight of
misery which can be but partially re-
lieved, and sometimes hardly reached at
all, and it is both maddening and de-
pressing, when, after having given ones
best and most conscientious labor to the
problem of relief, one finds it wasted-as
IT so very often is-on some poor creature
too obstinate and suspicious TO cooperate
in the effort toward her own good, and
too ignorant to pay one the simplest JUS
tice of gratitude. For the poor woman
(of the man have but little experienced
is as a rule unreasonable and ungrateful;
she looks upon the class above her wholly
from the Ishmaelitish standpoint, and in
all their intercourse begins by treating
them as willy enemies, to be circun-
vented and overreached, under a show of
smiling and open-hearted gratitude This
condition does not always last; but it is
always the first and instructive ground
taken toward ''the ladies'" who are all
supposed to be rich, and of whose motives
in visiting and working for them ONLY
the dimmest conception is usually at
tained.-Frank Leslie's Popular Monthly.

Women as FIorIculturists.

During the past five years." said a
well-known florist, "a number of women
have taken to the cultivation of flowers
as a business. The census bureau claims
that there are over 800 floral establish
meuts owned and managed by women.
/ know of fifty who are in the business
within ten miles of this city. They are
successful in raising flowers for the mar
ket, but in almost every case they are
merely carrying on the business left them
by husbands or other male relatives.
"One young German woman OF Union
Hill, the second wife of a well-to-do gar
dener, who died shortly after marriage.
took hold of the business and has built
up an immense trade. She studies the
market closely and varies her stock in
accordance with the demand, keeping
always a little in advance of her COMPETE
tors. Her energy and enterprise are re-
markable and readily account for her
great success. New York Evening Tel

ARSENIC AND AMMONIA.

Remarkable Contrast in the Effect of
Two PoisonS on the Complexion.
The slow absorption of many poisons
changes in some more or less modified
form the complexion, but arsenic and am
monia show their effect about as quickly
as any. The popular belief that arsenic
clears the complexion has led many silly
women to kill themselves with it in small,
continued doses.
1t produces waxy, ivory-like appear
ance Of the skin during a certain stage of
the poisoning, but its terrible after effects
have become too well known to make it
of common use as a cosmetic.
The effects of ammonia upon the COM
plexlon are directly the opposite to that
OF arsenic. The first symptom of am
monia poisoning which appears among
those who work in ammonia factories is
discoloration Of the skin of the nose and
forehead. This gradually extends over
the face until the complexion has
stained, blotched and unsightly appear
ance. With people who take ammonia
into their systems in smaller doses, as
with their water or food, these striking
symptoms do not appear SO soon. The
only effect of the poison that is visible for
time is general EMBELLISHMENTS and
sallowness of the complexion.
Many people are slowly absorbing am
monia poison without knowing it. The
use of ammonia in the manufactures has
greatly increased of late, and it is un-
questionably used as an adulterant in
certain food preparations. Official anal
ysis have plainly shown it's use even in
such cheap articles of everyday con-
sumption as baking powders. The con-
tinued absorption OF ammonia in even
minute quantities as an adulterant in
food is injurious, not merely from its eff
feet upon the complexion, but because it
destroys the coating of the stomach and
causes dyspepsia and kindred evils.
Professor Long of Chicago is authority
for the statement that if to fifty million
parts of water there is one part of am
monia the water is dangerous

lie, was substantial and welI-known
business man of the city, and when he
walked into a tailoring establishment on
Main street the other day he asked in a
DuSlneSS-lllle way to be shown some
plain gray goods for business suit, says
the Kansas City Times The second
piece shown him struck his fancy, and
he asked the cost, told how he wanted it
made, ana had his measure taken. Then
handing the tailor his card, he said:
Your place was recommended to ME
by Mr.. -, who always deals here.',
After asking when he should call for it
he started out
I'VE always require a deposit of $l0,"
suggested the tailor.
"a what?''
~ deposit of $40. You know. some
times people forget to come after clothes,
and they have to be sent TO the mistit
man."

"oh, we always make them fit before

you get things mixed and cut out my
cloth on the pattern of that slab-sided,
slope-shouldered, bandy-legged dude you
just measured, do you suppose altering
would do them any good? Not much.
Now you have had a square whack at me;
you have gone all over my anatomy with
that string and triangle. You have
punched me in the side and poked
around to find out where the Joints were.
and if you haven't done it right / don't
expect to pay for it. Hear? I'll tell you
what III do, though; I'll give you $500
bond to be here on time and take the
clothes if they fit, leaving the question of
TT to three selected tailors. But you will
have to pay the expenses. Or ri do this:
l. III pay you for the suit now if you will
give me bond Of the same kind to make
the clothes fit or return the money with
interest. But you must pay all expenses
Ii you don't want those terms, partner,
you can look me up in Bradstrect's and
find out who l am and make the duds, or
you can pay me for the trouble of sub
mitting to this measuring business. See?
But you don't get any contingent fee out
Of me on a suit of clothes.''
