uves, who promised them large salaries.
and also induced them to smuggle large
quantities of wraps and Partisan robes

III bringing them over. He has laid this
information before the authorities. who
have been to the place and secured sew
eral robes which it is claimed Kate
Reilly herself struggled to this country
They propose to make an inventory of
all the goods in the place and seize all
that have not paid duty. Mr.. Wade has
given the authorities a list of names of
women who have recently been brought
to America by Kate Reilly, and who he

town of Batavia, the Republicans
elected one supervisor for the first

the land slide is evident
upon its face, but the reports to the
New York papers state plainly that
the Democratic slump was a revolt
against the Hill machi lie. In Utica

the opposition, nominated a pro-

and did everything it could to couu
teract the impression that it was

''had it in" for the machine and
slaughtered its ticket. In EImira,
Hills home, the anti.Hill Democrats
and the Republicans pulled together
to defeat the machine candidate, and
succeeded by large majority. In
Oswego the race for mayor took
triangular form, the Cleveland and
Hill Democrats splitting and running
two candidates for mayor. Allen
the Republicans and re-
ceived 1882 votes. Bugler was the
Cleveland candidate and received
1916 votes. Mitchell was the Hill
candidate and received 7o3 votes.
Thus in Oswegc the issue was squarely
drawn and the Cleveland man got
more than twice as many votes as
the Hill man. The result of Il csc

Value of Property.

The Census Bureau has issued bulle-
tin on the subject of assessed valuation of
property IN the United States in 1890,
which is said to show that the assessed
vuiue of property. excluding railroad
property, except in csrIain specified
States, increas ed from $l6,902, ,998, ,543 in
1880 tu S24. 651 5s5, ,465 in 1890, an increase
of 81, ,74S. 791. .992, or IS. 81 per cent. Should
it be found upon the completion of the
inquiry in relation to the true value of all
property in the United States thai the
same relation existed In 1890 between the
assessed valuation and true valuation rs
existed in 1880, the absolute wealth of the
United States. according TO the eleventh
census, may be estimated at 6S6aS, ,00o, coo,
or more than $1,000 per capita, as against
S5i4 per capita In 1860, $3.50 per capita in
1870 and SS70 per capits in 1880. Owing,
however, to the fact that in some States
property is assessed at its full value and
in others at only fraction of its value,
comparisons OF the veal h Of The States
are quite impossible. In some States. too.
the lists of the kinds of taxable property
vary greatly from those in others.

1t is alleged on scientific authority and
seems quite worthy of belief, that the air
of theatres is the worst that is breathed,
except in mines, for there are no other
buildings into which people are so closely
crowded for hours at time. Prisons,
barracks, schools, factories, hospitals,
offlces-places that are occupied constant

thousands of operatives and with
chemical fumes and floating dust
in the air. the lungs take
in less impurity than is received at the
rheater and the concert hall. G. S.
Montgomery says in the Engineering
Magazine that the mill. with its air con-
tainlng Is per cent. of impurity. works
more harm than the theatre with 80 per
cent. of poison in its atmosphere, both
illustrations being extreme-is due 10 the
fact that The operatives breathe the Is per

week, while the theatre-goer, who per-
haps attends performance two nights In

bad results at the play does not excuse
managers and owners from their neglect
to furnish air for their patrons.

Little Jack Horner Had Pie and tho

tonbury deterH,ined that he would send
them, but as the documents were very
valuable, and the road infested with
thieves, it was difficult to get them to
the metropolis safely. To accomplish
this he devised tbs Ingenious plan or haV-

Horner to carry to London and deliver

the pie tempting, and the chance of de-
lection small. So the boy broke of
piece of the pie and beheld the parch-
ments within. The pie was delivered,
but the title deeds of the Abbey estate
were missing. Master Jack Horner had
them safe in his pocket, and when peace
able times were restored he claimed the
estate and received them. DR.. Brewer
says that Jack told the Abbot that the
king had given him the deeds, and quotes

CAUSE OF A QUEER SENSATION.

Why Bolting Ice Cream Creates Pain in
the Temples or Eyes.
During the scorching weather Of July
and August you often rush into an ice
cream saloon with the avowe d intention
of cooling your body to at least few de-
grees below the melting point. If you are
in great hurry you are apt to make the
first few spoonfuls of the cooling mixture
rather large. This almost Immediately
gives you violent pain in the temples,
or somewhere in the region of the eyes.
Why is this? Did you ever stop to thinkp
asks writer in the st. Louis Republic.
One who has studied the physiology of
the case says it is caused in the following
manner: The frozen mixture coming in
contact with the nerves OF the throat (the
larynX, pharynx, etc. temporarily para
lyZes them, The sensation Instantly shoots
to the centre of those nerves, which Is in
the brain, but Gnds there side connec-
tion in the shape of the great facial nerve,
which starts from in front of the ear aud
extends It's branches over the sides of the
face, One branch of this facial nerve, ex-
tending across the temple, is nerve of
sensation" while the other branches are
simply s'nerVes of motiou," utilized
chiefly to govern the play of the mouth.
This great facial nerve side-tracks the
pain which proceeds from the chill, throw
ing it out along the nerve branch which
traverses the temple, the pain being al
most agonizing at the points where the
nerve branches. If the irritation be ex-
traordinary the "redex action which
takes place may cause violent pain in
eyebals as we'll as in the temple, the eye
pain being simply sympathetic. The per-
son who rashly swallows great mouth
fuls of frozen milk should remember that
every time it comes in contact with the
nerves of his throat the whole nervous
system is injured to a greater or less ex-
tent.
