The Courier-J ournal denies the re-
port given out by the New York
Sun, to the effect that the Imam
Gould deal includes the T.. q N. in
connection with other valuable rail
road property. 1t says: "Mr. In,
man has no control of the Louisville

with it. He could not transfer it, or
any part of it, to Mr.. Gould or any
any one else. If Mr.. Gould wants it
he can get it for $25, 100000, or get
control of it. But there is no indi-
cation that he wants it, and none
whatever that the owners of the
Louisville and Nashville are prepar.
ing to load it down with the Rich

of the Louisville and Nashville is
always for peace, even if they have
to fight for it, and il it is peace Mr..
Gould wants he can get it without it

FROM BLACK BOTTOM.
A Tough Raises Cain and is Locked up
by Policemen.

A runner came to the police station
about 3 o'clock last evening for an
officer to go to the neighbOrhood of
Beaumont's factory and arrest a
tough that was indulging in the
pastime of throwing rocks at women
and children. Officer Robinson an
swered the call and says he found one
of the widest men he has handled
since he has been on the force. When
Robinson arrived on the scene he
found that the fellow had broken
down the door to Mike Wards resi-,
dence and had run all the inmates
off He was as wild as a hare and
whenever negro would stick head
out of window to see what the
trouble was, he would let drive a
rock at it. The officer collared him
at once, and then the fun began.
The fellow said his name was Sim
Butler; that he was regular good
one from Black Bottom, that no one
policeman ever arrested him in
Nashville, and he was certain no two
in GAINESVILLE could handle him
The officer, however, yanked him to
ward the gate, the fellow biting,
scratching, kicking and cursing. The
nippers were put on him and then it
was easy sailing for the officer. He
brought him to the station house and
locked him up. When the pair ar
rived at the lookup the prisoners
clothing was pretty well torn off of
him and presented the appearance of
the typical Black Bottom tough,
which he claimed to be.

The vast amount of labor performed
by the heart in keeping all portions Of

generally known. 1t beats 100000
times, and forces the blood at the rate
of 1853 miles day which is 100000
600 times and 5,l50,8s0 miles in life
time. No wonder there is so many
heart failures. The first symptoms
are shortness of breath when exercis-

CAPE MAY, N. j.. Aug. 30-Manuel P.
Scene, one of the secretaries Of the Spanish
legation, who was arrested recently for
fast driving, was fined 81 2S and costs by
Alderman Ware, which he paid. Dr. Jose
Ccngosta, the Spa nish consul ct Philadel-
phia. appeared in his behalf The case has
developed story of squeezing money out
of the Spanish official. When the Rev.
William II. Burlew, who hired the horse to
the secretary, made the demand to have
the warrant served he did not know who
the man was, but last night, Mr.. Burlew
suys, when he found it out, he decided to
| let the matter rest But Alderman Ware,
who issued the warrant, imposed the costs
| at the hearing this morning, without the
consent of Mr. Burlew.
| The alderman offered to settle the case
with Or. Cognosta for $40, and then
for IS. says the doctor, and finally
when he handed him bill for the costs the
doctor paid the 81 %. The doctor now
claims that the alderman had no right to
arrest the secretary, as he was the represen-
tatlve of foreign government. The doc
| tor demands that the costs shall be paid
| back and that the alderman make an

town, Brown county, twenty miles from a
railroad, twenty-five years ago Flora Staple
was born. Since that time she has been
more helpless than babe, having no power
of motion except the perpendicular move
ment of her jaws. During all these years
she has taken nourishment only in fluid
form. Strange as 1t may appear it is a fact
that she has grown to be very beautiful and
Of perfect form, except for a slight
curvature of the spine. Her power
of speech has been developed, and she
reads and speaks the English Ian
gusge fuently and correctly. Two years
ago she was brought to this city and wit
messed the parade of a large circus. Seeing
large elephant, she informed her mother
on returning home that the sight of it ha
made an impression upon her mind that she
would never forget, and that she believed
if she had some pliable substance she could
form with her mouth an image of the beast
She was first given an apple peeling and
her parents were greatly surprised on seeing
that perfect image of the elephant was
formed with her teeth. Since that time
she has learned to form with great rapidity
letters, words and sentences as perfect a:
print, and in this she takes great delight.
