ojos encendidos y las mejillas humedas
por lagrimas de fuego.

la cubri6 de besos, hacitndola llorar
De nuevo salio; trajo eI rostro livido
Y sus ropas desgarradas.
-t Por que estan desgarradas tus

Padre, he perseguido mariposas

posed portions of the intestines they were
returned to their place. Before this was
done, however, drainage tube of about
eight inches in length was inserted so as
to lead to the lower bowels. The wound
was then closed and the sufferer left in
charge of the surgeons assistant and u
trained nurse.
Remarkable as the operation is, it is still
more marvellous that every day since tho
patient has gained in strength, and Is to-
day convalescent. Frequent examina-
tions have been made of the progress Of
affairs in the patients abdomen, and az
fast as expedient the drainage tube is
withdrawn, until now only about three
inches remain in service.
Operations for the removal of the YER
inform appendix are by no means un-
common, but the surgeons knife is
rarely sanctioned by experienced practi-
TONERS in cases with the physical condi
tions as extreme as those in the one here

WASHINGTON, Dec. 23.-One of those pe-
cular crank bills that occasionally
find their way into congress was intro
duced yesterday by request by Mr. Nit
chell, in the senate. It's elaborate title
provides for the prohibition of electro
magnetising, mesmerizing and hypno-
tizing human beings, etc, and prescrib-
ing punishment The bill, in brief, pro-
vides that any person who, shall apply a
current Of electricity upon person for
the purpose Of affecting another, or
which does so affect. shall be guilty of u
crime punishable by death, and any per-
son having knowledge of such current
having been applied, who fails to notify
the proper authorities shall be deemed to
be an accessory and shall be punished
by a fine of not less than 81, 900 nor more
than go, 600, or by imprisonment rang
ing from two years to the period of ones
natural life.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 23.-The continued
prevalence Of cholera in Europe excites
apprehension in administration circles.
The hope entertained that the dread dis
ease had been extirpated is dissipated in
the face of reports Of new cases, and the
conviction is forced upon government
officials that, as predicted by many
scientists, the disease will reappear with
increased yirulence in the spring. United
States Consul Estes, at Hamburg, yes
terday increased the uneasiness felt by
sending tile following cablegram; Yes
terday two cases; today four; one death. :"
Commenting on tins Assistant Secretary
Spanlding said the situation was far
from re assuring and was in effect no.
tice that this government must not let
down the bars or relax its exerti0ns to
keep cholera from gaining foothold IN
the United States.

Lamont and Carlisle Slated.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 23.-The report
that Representative Harter is being con-
sidered by Mr.. Cleveland for secretary
of the treasury comes entirely Of the
fact that Mr.. Harter is ambitious to hold
that position, and that his friends have
have been talking about it. The best
information to be had as to Mr.. Cleve-
lands intentions is that he has decided
to put Carlisle at the head of the treas
ury department and make Colonel La
mont secretary of the navy, and that he
has reached no conclusion as to any
other place.

Edwards acknowledged having killed
the woman, and said that he murdered
her because she was of immoral char.

they were among the first to be stricken
with the mysterious malady. They held
on at the works, thinking their ailments
would yield to the ordinary treatment,

remain firm was unexpected, and the be-
lief that they would go to work by Jan.

maintain they are as determined as ever
not to grant the 3l-2 cent rate, and as
the miners will not work for less long
strike Is the only prospect.
