Ice Cream for Medicinal Purposes.
The value OF ice cream as remedy
for certain intestinal troubles is be-
ing advanced. Some, indeed most,
physicians permit it through typhoid
fever, always insisting it shall be of
the purest make. To the story recent
ly going the rounds in print of the
entire cure OF a case OF ulcer OF the
stomach by the sole and persistent
use of ice cream may be added that
OF a woman. She suffered from a seri.
Gus affection OF the eyes directly trace
able to digestive disturbance and her
physician finally put her upon ice
cream as q soc diet. For eleven
months saeliterally lived on ice cream
with the result to effect a complete
and apparently permanent cure.
The theory is that the cream furnishes
ample nourishment while the diseased
intestines chilled from the low tenn
perature of the food, are prevented
from getting up inflammation during
the proceeds OF digestion carried on by
the healthy parts.-Exchange.

AT THE SEASIDE.
A Pig Fire Made the Strangers Lone

A Pig Fire Made the Strangers Lone
ly.
There was a big fire here on the
beach the ether night. A great crowd
ass-rrh,ed to see the merry-go-round
and the revolving wheel burn, but a
few strolled of upon the beach to
watch the confagration effects
upon the sea. Each wave, as
in the old testament tradition, was
turned into blood-red wine, and far
out at sea, along the horizons misty
verge, host Of gigantic phantoms
whirled and whirled for hours in a
shadowy dance. All the sands were
shot with fecks of dazzling light and
the crowds that serged and beat along
the tide-encr coached way had pale
faces and seemed too be uneasy ghosts
waiting for Sharon, the mystic ferry
man, to row them across u lurid sea.
I became separated from the rest OF
mankind, rs it were, and for un.
counted ages, as it seemed to ME, sat
on crimson sand pile and watched
busy world. l shall never forget
the desolatlon that overpowered me
as the big bells beat their frantic
alarm, and I felt myself an utter
stranger in city that was gwen over
to holocaust. / would have given
worlds il Ihad had few strung to my
eh;atelaine to have run across to q
friend. / would have clasped q credit
or to my heart l believe such was my
longing for IL familiar face. After mid
night the1falnes abated, and such Of
us as: had been shut away from ac-
cess to our boarding places, crept
back with tottering knees and packed
our little trunks for home. n. Y.

Y HlrS 6s Union Men.
WhenThe Union troops retreated
across the Rappahannock after the
battle o! fredericksburg, among those
left lying on the field was one Corny
OToole.
He was not wounded, nor was he
even stunned, but he fingered behind
till it was too late, and, fearing he
would be taken prisoner, with his
ready Irish wit, he decided to lie down
among the killed and wounded, hop.
ing to find his way back to camp
when night came on.
He had just stretched himself in q
comfortable position when several OF
the enemy carrying stretchers came up.
"Heres Col. Bunting!" exclaimed
one; as they stopped to examine a
Confederate officer lying near Corny's
feet.
The surgeon knelt by his side to ex-
anime the wound, which was near his
heart.
The Colonel in command was a
short, fat man about 40 years OF age.
and to bend over comfortably he had
to rest his elbows on his KEGS. He
stood with his back to Corny when
he opened his eyes. Seeing the little
fat Colonel, Corny drew up both legs
till his knees almost touched his chin,
and then with full force he sent his
feet straight against the Colonel.
Out shot the Colonel, knocking
down three OF the soldiers in his
hurried flight and grazing thesurgeon' S
bald head with his boot as he rolled
over on the ground.
When they recovered themselves,
they seemed inclined to run, thinking
they had suddenly been set upon by
the enemy from some unseen quarter.
"Wha-what was it," asked the
Colonel, not yet realizing what struck
him.
II wish you'd notify me beforehand
the next time you want to try to kick
in my head" mumbled the surgeon,
applying plasters to his crown.
II reckon somebody gaveyo a kick,
Colonel" ventured one ofthe privates,
doing his best to keep from laughing
in his superior's face.
"Ha, hal" now came from the
ground, and, looking around, they
found Corny, his eyes still closed, but
huge grin in his face.
Finding himself discovered, he broke
| into a loud laugh, i'll which he was
joined by the whole party-all but
[ the Colonel.
Taking charge OF the prisoner, the
| Colonel started off, ordering the rest
to follow.
In a small strip OF woods near the
Rsppahannock, Corny and his captor
through some means, became separ
ated from the rest.
| Coc:y, watching his opportunity
suddenly threw his arms around the
Colonel, pinning them to his sides.
He then dragged him down to the
river and both were ferried across by
some Union soldiers, who were on the
| lookout
Corny told his story, produced bis
prisoner as proof and received as a
reward his corporal's stripes.-N. Y

A SECRET MEETING.

| The Strikers at the Union Mills Discuss the
Situation-Some Prominent Labor Lead
ers Address Them m-EncouraGement
Given From Many Sources.
A mass meeting of the strikers of Car
negie's Union Mills was held yesterday
afternoon at 2:3O o'clock in Union Hall,
Thirty-second street. 1t was not open to
the public, but the proceedings were OBJ
tanned from an Amalgamated man who was
present Vice President Sheehan was
chairman and John Connolly secretary of
the meeting.
Chairman Sheehan made the opening ad-
dress, in which he introduced William
Pfeifke, representing the Trades Council
of Beaver Falls. Mr.. Pfeifke said that
although he was not q millworker, but
knight of the needle. he had the
cause of the strikers greatly at heart. He
talked in an intelligent way telling the
men that this fight was not considered a
fight against the ADalgamated Association
alone, but the blow was aimed at unionlsm
in all forms, so that they had the support of
every workingman in the country. Secre-
tarv Dillon, of the Flint Glass Workers
Association, made an address in which he
dilated upon the duties of men to each
otner Wnen DOunu together IN ldOor organl-
zations He promised the assistance of his
branch of trade and gave the men some en-
couraging words.
Burgess McLuckie and Secretary Nc
Coneghy, of Homestead, dwelt upon the
situation in their town, reporting that the
locked-out men were meeting with great
success. President Weihe reviewed the
situation and encouraged the men to hold
out as they were sure of success. First
Vice President Carney and William G.
Roberts followed The latter said when he
had spoken in the hall before he declared
that Homestead was bound to win whether
the Union Mills came out or not. He said
he was Just as sure now. w. j. Brown and
Jerry Dougherty followed with short ad-
dresses. A vote of thanks was then given
to the speakers.
The meeting was enthusiastic, and the
general tenor of the remarks made gave
evidence that the men were confident of
success and steadiast to the cause, but that
they would like to see matters come to an
end, so that they could shake hands with
the firm and work for them the same as be-
tore. There did not appear to be any weak
ness in the ranks whatsoever.
