Spectators.
PARIS, July Especially During a
theatrical performance at Rueil, q town
OF almost 5000 inhabitants, in the de-
partment Of Seine Eft Disc, last evening,
an accident occurred by which so people
were seriously injured. The seats oc-
cupied by those who assembled to wit
ness the performance were arranged in
tiers rising toward the rear. Shortly
after having been filled an omnibus
cracking was heard, and in an instant
they had fallen with crash. carrying
down with them seven hundred persons.
When the seats collapsed it was at
first supposed many were killed. For
time all was confusion, but through the
efforts Of few who retained their pre-
sense OF mind, aided by the police, order
was restored, and the work Of extricat-
ing the injured pushed forward. After
all were taken out the police found that
some person or persons had loosened the
screws and bolts in the frame work that
supported the seats, rendering them un-
safe, and sure to fall when any consld-
cradle weight was put upon them.
When the result OF the police investi-
CATION was known the greatest indigna-
ton was expressed on oil sides. An
active search is being carried on for the
perpetrators OF the outrage.

The precious metal has been employed
both externally and internally, in the
metallic state, in solution and by SYM
pathy, FOR great variety of the ills that
flesh is heir to, for over 1000 years. The
train of thought which led the ancients
to employ this highly priced material
can be well told in the quaint language
Of the distinguished Dutch physician aud
chemist, Hermann Boerhaave; writing
about 1725, he says; "The alchemists
will have this metal contain | know not
I what radical balm of life capable of re.
storing health and continuing it to the
longest period,
"What led the early physicians IL
imagine such wonderful virtue in god
was that they perceived certain qualitic.
therein which they fancied must b
conveyed thereby into the body; gold
for instance, is not capable of being do
stroyed; hence they concluded it must
be very proper to preserve animal sub.
stances and save them from putrefac-
ton, which is method Of reasoning
very much like that of some fanciful
physicians who sought for an assuaginR
remedy in the blood of an ass ear bs

An object of the Democrats Ia SSa-
IDENTIFY TO stir up dlRtrust on The
part OF the Republicans in regard to
tho fairness OF the nomination elec-
ton for lazy Court commissioners in
the First and Fourth districts held
Saturday, August Is.
Some Baron Munchausen reporting
tor the Every Evening, makes that pa
| per say that In the east end OF White
Clay Creek Hundred there were moro
votes deposited than there are actual
legal Republican and Democratic
votes combined, according to the con-
coded lists Of both parties.'
| This IL simply lie out OF the whole
cloth. The reporter could easily have
asCertained tho vote of the district had
he but referred to the election returns
of 1890. But II seems that a lie was
| preferable to HE truth, and the rspor-
ter chose the lie.
The election returns of 1890 show
/ that there were cast in East White
! Clay Creek, 140 Republican votes and
III Democratic votes, making a total
OF POI votes. There were cast at the
nomination election 232 votes all told.
which, though apparently - swollen
vote. falls 80 votes short Of the COM
bined Republican and Democratic
vote. The truth Is that the Republic
| can vote at the nomination was 99 in
excess OF the Republican voto in 1890.
1t would ave boon rs easy for the
| reporter to have said that thnn what
he did say, TINT the Republican vote
at the nomination election exceeded
both the Republican and Democratic
| vote Of the district.
II Is claimed by the Republicans
that there has been rapid increase of
the legitimate Republican vote Of that
district, as the returns will show on
election day, also that quite large
number OF Democrats voted at the
nomination promising to support the
Republican ticket.
The same reporter has iuformatit n
that in the First Ward Suppose lIg
means FIRST District) "the franchise of
the genuine voters was completely
fnulliiied by the most open and shame
less importation of Illegal voters"
also thnt it 10 rumored that Chair.
man Buckingham intends contest g
the election"
The charge Is that 40 Illegal voters
were imported from Wilmington. and
depositing their votes, defeated Mr.
Buckingham. How much truth there
Is In this charge Is not known. but II
there is 40 mora in it thun there Ia In
the East White Clay Creek lie, the re.
port must DO accepted with very
great degree Of allowance.
