A PhaIanx.

A phalanx in the military affairs Of
Greece was a square battalion or body
of soldiers formed in ranks and files
compact and deep with their shields
joined and pixies crossing each other SO
as to render it almost impossible to
break it. At first the phalanx consisted
of 1900 men, but this number was after
ward doubled by Philip Of Macedon,
and the double phalanx is hence often
called the Macedonian phalanx. Poly
bius describes 1t thus:
"It was square Of pikemen, consist
ing of sixteen in flank and 500 in front.
The soldiers stood so close together that
the pixies Of the fifth rank extended
three feet bayond the front. The rest,
whose pixies were not serviceable owing
to their distance from the front, couched
them upon the shoulders Of those who
stood before them, and 80 locking them
together in file pressed forwardfto sup
port and push on the former rank, by
which means the assault was rendered
more violent and irresistible" The
spears of those behind also stopped the
missiles of the enemy. Each mans pike
was twenty-three feet long. The word
phalanx is also used for any combina
ton of people distinguished for solidity
and firmness. A grand phalanx consist
ed Of 1884 men.-Brooklyn Eagle.

Dogs That B.the Regularly.

It Is only the petted and pampered ca
mines who have such a dread Of the surf.
The democratic ours of the town and the
sensible old house dogs who have lived
here long enough to feel thoroughly at
home and who feel equal to the task Of
looking out for themselves under any
and all circumstances are of an en-
tirely different frame Of mind, so far as
that is concerned. Plenty Of them go in
for their daily swim as regularly and as
unconcernedly as the most enthusiastic
and inveterate bathers the town con-
tains, and plenty more wait only for the
barest invitation to 60 plunging in after

THEY FEAR THE WORST
Mrs. Harrison's Illness Likely to Result Fatally.
BULLETIN OF THE PHYSICIANS.

The Tappiugs to Withdraw the watery
 With Great Danger-Russell Harrison
 and Mrs. Mckee at the Bedside--A Slight
 Improvement This Morning.
 LOON LAKE HOUSE, N. Y., Sep. 15. - The anxiety of the President and his fam fly over the critical condition of Mrs. liar rison is intense, and they make no at tempt to conceal their great alarm at the situation. The physicians advise them to hope for the best, but offer no real en- quietly intimated to the President the strong probability of a fatal result. The President is a most faithful com
 panion, and rarely leaves Mrs. Harrison's bedside. In fact, he really shares the nursing of the invalid with professional attendant.
 Russell Harrison and Mrs. Mckee, the Presidents son and daughter, are also ir constant attendance. The former was summoned from New York as soon as the
 disease took dangerous turn. Dr. Gardner made careful examina. tion of Mrs. Harrison late last night. He found that the accumulation of the wat cry substance in the lung cavity was not sufficient to justify another operation for it's withdrawal. ''These tappings," Dr. | Gardner said, ''are attended with great danger on account of the weak condition of Mrs. Harrison, and each time 8 pune ture is made she suffers from the shock. , Her respiration this morning is less lsbored and she is able to take small quantities of liquid nourishment at intervals. The great danger lies in the watery ac- cumulation and constant watchfulness or the part of the doctors is required to pre-
 vent it from bringing about 8 fatal ter imitation. The accumulation has a ten dency to smother the patient by filling
 the air valves, and it also brings abnor- | nal pressure to bear on the heart.
 The first operation of tapping was per formed Sunday, and the second 24 hours | later.
 Following is the bulletin which was
 issued by Drs. Gardner, Doughty and | Trudeau, yesterday:
 "Primary disease or tuberculosis O.

 tion. Recent complication, sub-acutt pleurisy, with rapid effusion of water ir
 the right chest, necessitating two tap | pings, with some relief.

 Sir Adolphe Caron, Postmaster-G General of Canada, has issued orders for the dis infection and Immigration of all foreign mail matter reaching Montreal by way of New York.
 Joe Goddard, the pugilist, has issued Q challenge in which he declares himself ready to meet any man in the world in the club offering the largest purse and to wager $5, 900 on the result.
 HI. B. Ryder, the former American
 Consul at Copenhagen, now in prison un-
 der various charges of fraud, is said by
 the authorities to have confessed to a fraud not heretofore established, in with holding payment of 8 legacy. -Spiegel 6 Co.,, furniture dealers, of Chicago, have confessed judments az gregating nearly $100,000. The liabili- ties of the firm are about $150, 900 and
 the assets are about equal to the liabili-
 ties. The collapse was due to the dull ness of trade.
 George Ticknor Curtis, the well-known 5urist of New York, has withdrawn from the Democratic party. In a letter to the
 "American Economist" he bases his action on the ground that his convictions are not in unison with the free trade plank in the Democratic platform.
