BOULANGEK'S BULLET.


BRUSSELS, Belgium, Oct. 1.-Gen, Boul-
anger committed suicide at about noon
yesterday. He stood alone at the grave
of his mistress for some time, appearing
to be deeply affected by sorrowful recol'
lections. An attendant of the general,
who had respectfully remained at some
distance from Nine. De Bonneman' s
tomb, suddenly heard a sharp report in
that direction. Running to the spot, the
attendant found Gen. Boulanger lying
dead upon the ground with revolver
clnched in his right hand. A hasty ex-
animation OF the body showed that the
dead man had placed the weapon to his
right ear and fired the fatal shot.
The generals position, financial and
political, has, it is generally admitted,
been getting blacker and blacker of recent
months. Coupled to this was the morbid
love, or infatuation, which he had ior his
dead mistress, to whom he was, undoubt-
edly, greatly attached, as evidenced by
his renouncing what might have been an
important political career, i'll order to flee
with her from France. 1t is an open
question as to what would have happened
in France had the general chosen to face
imprisonment and political upheaval, in
stead of preferring the safer sunshine OF
Nine. DE Bonnemain's favor.
Paris, Oct. 1.-The suicide Of Gen.
Boulanger has caused an enormous SEN
sation in this city, 80 much SO that the
evening newspapers are unable to meet
the demands made upon them. Nothing
else is talked about.

Dress Reform Craze.

BosroN, Oct. 1.-The first rainy Satur-
day in October is to witness remarkable
scene in Boston. AT q given hour zoe
members of the Dress Reform club are to
appear on the streets in killed skirts. The
movement was started by Mrs. Margaret
Ingersoll. The costume adopted is sim
pie, reducing the number OF garments to
four or five. These include tights, hose,
the union garment, the Jenness-Miller
waist, and the dress itself which is to be
short enough to clear the curbstones in
wet weather, and to be made of one piece,
so that its weight may rest on the should
ers and not on the hips. The length of
the skirt is matter for each woman to
settle for herself The feet and lower
legs will be covered with light top boots
made like riding boot, to wrinkle at or
above the ankle or by tight fitting
leather leggins, buttoning up along the
side, or by fleece lined leggins OF gossa-
mer. Arrangements have been made by
the railroads for excursions on the first
rainy Saturday.

SUICIDE BY AMMONIA.
The Tv1 rible Agony Does Not Prevent
Its Use.

No poison brings death with more mad
ening 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 gene the ammonia route
to death in spite of the excrucistng pain.
DR.. Blyth has recorded thirty cases OF
ammonia poisoning in the small London
district Of which he is health officer; Pro-
lessor Mitchell mentions TWENTY-FIVE
cases, and four have occurred during the
short time DR.. jenkins has been con-
nected with the coronet'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 of
in considerable quantities. Ammonia,
slowly and from day to day taken into the
system, causes the complexion to loose its
freshness, and the skin of men who get
heavily impregnated with it has disa-
greeable blotched and discolored appear
ance.
Taken into the stomach from day to
day, in even small quantities used to
adulterate food, such as baking powder,
it not only Injuries the complexion but at
tacks the lining of the stomach, and is
the source of much general ill heath.
The recent rapid increase in the use Of
ammonia for various purposes, and the
consequent increase in its manufacture,
have made it one of the most easily OBJ
tanned polsons and, although everybody is
familiar with it in some form, there is a
surprising amount of ignorance of its dam
gerous qualities. Its use as an adulterant
in any food preparation is simply crime,
and as crime should be punished.

DULUTH, Mimi, October 1.-The heads
of the grain firm here, who are probably
the largest wheat exporting firm in the
west, said that of the $500, 900 bushels
of wheat which have been shipped out ol
this city in six weeks, about 1900, ,O0O
bushels were for direct export. Tie bulk
of this has gone to the United Kingdom.
This amount of export business is at least
twice as heavy as has ever before been
seen here. The demand still continues
and there is a large amount of wheat yet
to 70 forward. In the last few weeks, the
output of flour here has been about 100
barrels day and probably about one
quarter OF this has been exported.

This northeastern county lies entirely
within the Canadian drainage basin and
with slight exceptions upon plateau of
5000 feet. Its eastern boundary is
frlnged by an area of 5000 feet Of alti-
tude, and its western boundary is drawn
along the lofty ridge OF the Taos range.
1t shows but slight traces Of the action of
the winter rains, but in April and May
the valley OF the upper Canadian, as far
south as Springer, is influenced by a
precipitation which does not appear else
where within the territory, except that
its area extends down into Mora with
diminished intensity. For the two
months this rainfall amounts to some
three inches. The summer rains are felt
in this valley up to ten inches. The
surface is greatly varied with plains, val
leys, buttes and mesas. The arabic lands
are found in the bottoms of all the rivers
and creeks which rise in the western part
of the county and in the valley of the
Cimarron, in the extreme northeast.
Irrigation works Of considerable mag
nitude are restricted to the Maxwell
grant, in the western part of the county.
Here two systems are operated by the
Maxwell Land Grant company. The
Springer system draws its supply from
the Clmarron creek, thirteen miles north.
west OF Springer, and has completed and
in operation lorty-seven miles of ditch
and six reservoirs, and is designed to
reclaim 20, 900 acres. The Vermejo system
draws it's water from the Vermejo river
and distributes it through seventeen miles
of main ditch upon $4,000 acres, with an
eight.mile lateral to Crow creek. The
laterals of these two systems already
measure more than 100 miles.

A Most Obli.ing Neixhber.

There is clerk in one Of the depart
ments namcd-well, call him Smithe, for
that's not his name-who Is notoriously
close listed, and was never known to pay q
debt unless actually forced to do 30. See
ing neighbor the other morning going
down town, Smithe hailed him:
"Say, George, as you'll be on the avenue
today would you mind looking in at the
express Office and see If there Is small
package there for me2"
Not at all. pll be glad to oblge you :"
So George called and found a small box
for Smithe, on which there was due twen-
ty-five cents. It struck him at once that
his economical neighbor would probably
be short a quarter when he handed him
the package, and he might then perform
the feat known as whistling for it, 80 he
left the box and went home. Passing
Smithe's residence that worthy was wait
ing for him.
"Well, George, did you find anything at
the express Officer"
"Oh. yes," said George, "there was a
package for you marked G. o. D.. twenty
five cents. SO gave them your address,
and it'll be along directly. Fine weather

The Smooth Citizen II Engaged to a
Rich Washington ,widow-Near the
End Of His Rope.

Mr.. U. s. G.. Click keeps bobbing up at
Washington; the last time he appeared,
according to the following special dis
patch in Fridays Chronicle, was in q
5000 dressing gown.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 20. - Ulysses S.
Grant Click, who was discharged from
custody because no one appeared to
prosecute him for rembezzlement, is lying
in his bed with what he calls brain
fever, and he is being pampered and
petted by members of the church which
he attended. He will probably be
dropped by them, however, when they
learn that they were given the tip by
the pastor, who assumed the attitude OF
friendliness until he could break off the
engagement that had been entered into
between the willy Click and wealthy
widow member of his congregation. He
has been successful in this, and his at
tentions to Click will probably cease.
If the man is crazy he has not shown
it to any appreciable extent, and II he
is ever confined in an asylum it will not
be for the insane. Yesterday, while sur
rounded by sympathizing souls who
proclaimed him a prosecuted man, he
wrapped himself comfortably in new
5000 dressing robe and, with gratitude
sounding in his voice, said:
THAT dear, good, kind Mrs. Senator
Stanford. will never be able to repay
her for many kindnesses and words OF
encouragement to me while in trouble.
Today she heard OF my illness and down
came this fine robe"
Then those who surrounded him scat
tered about the city and told how Mrs.
Stanford was saving him from the mis-
creants who were bounding him to his
grave, and how she was sending him
costly presents. OF course Mrs. STAN
ford had never favored him in any man
ner and had never made him gift. Mr..
Clicks nerve will never desert him un-
til he is thoroughly exposed and landed
in jail.
