OBSERVING THE TRIPLES.
Some of the Little Things That Have De
 veloped Remarkable Proportions.

Some of the Little Things That Have De-
 veloped Remarkable Proportions.
 An American neurologist, eminent in the medical profession, told the other lay the following anecdOte, illustra tive of the value to physicians and nurses of the habit of quick observation of triflcs.
 The doctor once was called in con suitation to a case of peculiar disease in a woman, which had baffled the skill of her physician. No cause could be found for certain pcrpleNing symptoms. As the doctor stepped to her bedside he accidentally displaced an empty cologne bottle on an old, highly vanished table by the bedside
 ''Oh," said the patient. quickly, ''the nurse upset that bottle last night, and spilled all the cologne"
 "On this tablc?" asked the doctor, carelessly.
 ''Yes."
 When the physicians retired for con- sultation the doctor who had held this conversation said: 'I think this wom- an has been drinking cologne. Alcohol spilled on that table would have left white stain.
 Here the quick observation of a trifie and the chance knowledge that the alcohol in cologne water would blanch vanished surface detected dipso- maniac in the patient, and enabled her physicians to treat her more intelli- gently.
 The keen notice. of trifles and the rapid matching in the mind of cause and effect constitute what may be called the detective quality, which be- | longs in it's highest grade to great in vcntors or naturalists. One man, for instance, watches the force with which the lid of his wife's teakettle is raised when the water boils, and out of that observation comes
 the steam engine Another observes that the flame of
 his candle as he enters door may be blown one way when he holds it above his head, and another when he lowers l the candle, and out of that trifle de- duces the explatio of some of the great atmospheric currents ! Yet how many thousands of men had | seen the lid move on boiling kettle | with no result, and how many had car
 ried flaming lights without detecting | the secret of the mighty winds which | had puzzled all mariners since the first | ship sailed.
 So keen an instinct for discovery is | usually born in a man, yet the quality
 can be cultivated by every person. Ii | is the eye of the eye that finds meaning
 and purpose in every object on which il | restS-Youth's Companion.

RECENTLY a young man in Denver, Colorado, who had doubts about the divinity of Christ, told his pastor that if Mir Gladstone affirmed his belief in that doctrine he would accept it. Accord ingly a note was sent to Mir Gladstone, and though it reached him in the midst of the election excitement, he found time to send the following in his own handwriting on a postal card: "All I write, and all think, and all hope, is based upon the divinity of our Lord, the one central hope of our poor, way ward race"

AFFAIRS OF IRON HALL
Justice Somerby Says the Or
 der is Solid.
NO OCCASION FOR A RECEIVER.

The Seventeen Lodges in Chicago VIII Di-
 vide Their Reserve Funds-To Ask for a Receiver in Maine--Action of Hartford
 Branches.
 PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 27, Supreme Jus tice F. D. Somerby, of the Order of. the Iron Hall, is at his home, 3402 Barring street, in this city. He arrived from Bal timore late in the evening and was tired and sick.
 At first he declined to talk, but finally replied, when asked his opinion of the financial condition of the order: ''You can say that Iron Hall, to my mind, is as solid as any institution in the country"
 Dispatches from Indianapolis quoted you as saying during the investigation that Secretary Hayes was responsible for $93, 1000 of the reserve fund being invested in Mutual Bank stock and that you knew nothing about it," said the re- porter.
 ''That is absolutely false. While Secretary Hayes was the one who made the investment, still I knew that it had been done. 1 said nothing that reflected in any way upon J. Henry Hayes, for I believe him to be thoroughly honest man."
 Do you believe that this $sS,OOO is lost!"
 Mr. Somerby thought for moment and then said:
 "Yes, I am obliged to admit that think it is"
 When told that the Mutual Bank ap- praisers had finished their work and that the result is favorable to the institution, MT. Somerby said:
 'I am glad of that. But I felt sure of it all along, and was convinced that the $11O, ,O00 of Iron Hall was all right. There would have been no need for an assignee for the bank if it had not been for Supt Krumbaar's interference"
 "What will your movements be in the future2''
 ''That cannot say But, I am always i ready to do anything for the good of the Order. My actions have always been straightforward and honest, and I car only say that l am very sorry for the whole affair. There was no occasion fol a receiver for Iron Hall, and there was nc occasion for receiver for the NatiCaa Bank, as both were perfectly solid" Mir. Somerby was surprised when h, learned that District-Attorney Graham had been appointed receiver for Pennsyl Vania

SECRETARY CHARLES FOSTER brought the most variegated assortment of politi- cal rainbows with him when he re- turned to Washington from Ohio that has yet been exposed to the gaze of the public. According to him the national election is already settled and all the money that will be spent between this and the Sth of next November will sim ply be thrown away. His modesty in making claims is something quite as wonderful as his manipulation of the figures which show, or are supposed to show, the amount of cash surplus in the United States treasury; he IS positive that every northern (using the word to represent all except the southern states) state will be carried by Harrison and Reid and at least six of the southern states. It is not clear why he does not claim all of the electoral votes. Such a claim would not be a whit more ridiculous than those he has made. He should have known that these absurd claims would cause his rainbow state ments about the condition of the treas ury, given out at the same time, to be discredited, as stories, like people, are usually judged by the company they keep,

IRON HALL MATTERS.

The Lodges In chicago VIII Divide The1H
 Reserve Funds.
 CHICAGO, Aug. 27.-Oficers of the 17 local Iron Hall lodges have decided to hold on to their reserve funds without going through any legal formalities. Members have reached the conclusion that the Or der has collapsed, and that the best plan is to get all they can out of it.
 Accordingly, the reserve funds, which range from $500 to $500, will be dis tributed among the paying members, and the local officers will resign, leaving mo- body responsible to the Indianapolis re- ceiver.
 As the paying membership of the local lodges has dwindled to a small number, those dividing the funds will fare we'll Supreme Justice Somerby was here to secure the money, but meeting with no encouragement he left town as suddenly as he arrived.

ACCORDING to an official opinion of the attorney-general, which suspicion points to having been dictated from Loon lake, made public this week, the good people of Vicksburg, Mississippi, must continue to have their city post office presided over by the notorious negro adventurer, whose nomination the republican senate declined to con form. The attorney general holds, or at least pretends to, that a failure to confirm the nomination of a post master who is in possession of post office before the assembling of the session of congress which fails to act on the nomination leaves him the legal postmaster until his successor is nomi- mated. If that be good law the post office department from the foundation of the government has been in similar cases acting illegally.

ted Until Danger is Past.
 MONTREAL, Aug. 27.-The outbreak of cholera at Hamburg has caused consid- erable uneasiness> in Montreal, as the steamships of the Hamburg American Packet Company arrive weekly at this port from Hamburg and Antwerp.
 w. C. Munderich, local manager of the company, states that every precau- tion will be taken on board the boats to prevent the disease, and he will afford the health authorities every assistance in his power
 The officer in charge of the River St. Lawrence quarantine at Gross Isle in a report to the government draws attention to the fact that, while he can handle iso- lated cases of infection, he could not cope with ship arriving on board of which an epidemic had become general. He says for combating disease the appliances at his command are antiquated and obso- those ill use sixty years ago.
 The steamship Mandrahm sails from Antwerp Thursday for Montreal, but she was in Hamburg five days ago. The next boat that will leave Hamburg for Mon treal is the steamship Steimhoft, on Sept. 15. Tramp steamers also leave Hamburg for Montreal, but none is on the way now.
 Dr. Laberge, the city's health officer says he will take every precaution against the landing of any immigrant or member of the crew of a vessel from an infected port until the vessel has been overloaded by the proper authorities.

THE lesson of last nights democratic primary elections should not be for gotten. It teaches first of all that set of rules governing primaries should be adopted. Of late years there has been a grand scramble for supremacy at the primaries; sharp practices have been re- sorted to, and the result has been dis satisfaction eliminating in open war fare. It is not for the DEMOCRAT to say who is to blame for this state of affairs. Each faction would promptly deny the imputation. Our aim is not to widen the breach, but heal the wounds by ap- pealing to the reason of the men who are looked upon as leaders in the different ward factions. The interest of party should not be subordinated to per sonal ambitions. The rules governing primary elections should be such that no
 one would have cause to complain;
 everything should be open and above
 board, and last but not least the mi
 nority should acknowledge the rights of
 the majority, after being defeated at the polls.

A New Chemical Ei ement.

New chemical elements are not dis covered as rapidly as new asteroids or new comets, and when one is found, as has recently occurred, a great deal of interest is aroused in the scientific world.
 The new element was discovered in Egypt in the bed of an ancient river which has been dried up for ages, but of whose former existence there are said to be records dating back about six thousand years A few little lakes, whose water possesses medicinal prop critics, exist in the old river bed.
 The new element, which, according to the Youths Companion, is called masri- um, from the Arabic name for Egypt, is constituent of kind of fbrous alum. It falls under the class of metals, and Is said by chemists to possess a strong individuality. Moreover, it furnishes an additional proof of the correctness of the prevailing theory of what is called the pcriodicity of the elements, since it's atomic weight seems to place it just in a certain gap in the system whose existence had been noted. This, indeed, is not the first instance in which newly-discovered substance has been found to fill vacant place in the ideal system of the chemical elements. Other gaps yet exist, and chemists are becom- ing so confident in the accuracy of their fundamental theory that they would not be surprised to see every one of these gaps filled by the discovery of new elements, the general properties of which they are able to predict.

DEMOCRATIC NOMINATIONS.

ADVERTISING is like any other salable article. If the manager or agent of a newspaper offers exceedingly low rates for advertising there must be something the matter with what he has to sell which greatly reduces its value. When other goods are offered below cost the average merchant wants to know why, but there are many who buy advertising where it is offered to them at the lowest figure, without regard to quality or to those essential points they observe in ordinary purchases.

AN inventive genius of Bla1ely, Ga., has contrived new mode of catching with mixture of flour and magnctized steel filings made into a stiff paste or dough. When they begin to take the bait q magnctizcd iron or steel rod, coated with the same kind of paste, is let down to them. They soon attempt to suck the paste from it, and in doing so soon stick hard and fast. It is said to be not unusual for fisherman to haul out at one time long string or rod of suckers in this way.

FRANCES WILLARD undou ubtedly struck Q responsive chord in the bosoms of a great many of her readers when she gave utterance to the following just and pretty sentiment: "The highest genius predicts the most universal sym pathy. A shut-up soul and shut-up oyster are nearer the same level than the soul believes. One can be exclusive on small intellectual capital, but only broad, ,far-sighted minds can be inclusive. What we call lack of charity is usually lack of perception. If we knew more we should love better. The Divine mind knows all and loves all. From human natures ever vocal Gerizim sounds the bcatitude: Blessed are the inclusive, for they shall be included, and from the Mount Ebal of it's male diction sounds the doom: Cursed are the exclusive, for they shall be cx- cluded.'" A frigid air and forbidding dcmeanor are never the accompani- ments of a warm and sympathetic na- turc, and one possessed of these can never know the blessings of true com panionship or appreciative friends.

ONE OF THE OUTLAWS IN JAIL.
sam YeaSer, Who Belongs to the Cooley
 Gang, Captured.

UNIoNToN, Pa, Aug. 27.-Sam Yeager, one of the Cooley gang of outlaws that make their headquarters in the noun tains in this vincinity, is now in jail here.
 He and Brint Frey, another of the gang, went into into the village of Hopwood in the morning and boldly walked around the streets and into the stores.
 Sheriff Mccormick was notified and went to Hopwood. He captured Frey and left him in charge of Postmaster Dawson, while he went to capture Yea ger, but that outlaw had already been captured by deputy.
 During the absence of the sheriff Frey got away from the postmaster and fled to the mountains. Yeager was brough t here to jail.
