two words In foreign tongue which were

the first intimation yet received by the

This message was sent from Mompox TO

the Pacific coast from there to Panama by
cable, then to Galveston and by telegraph
to New York. 1t was from Ribon's nephew,
Juan I. Ribon. one of the Alvo's passen-
gers. The message was shown TO Climaco
Calderon. the Colombian consul general in
New York and TO Jorge Fombo. the special
commissioner OF the republic of Colombia
to the worlds exposition IN Chicago. These
gentlemen arrived at the conclusion that the
Alvo must have come ashore somewhere in
the vicinity OF Barranquilla, a port near the
mouth OF the Magdalena river. the nearest

press themselves as disinclined to believe
that the vessel was saved. only those on

Colombian ports on August Is. She might
have been disabled or wrecked In one OF
three cyclones that swept across her course
between the 10th and 2sth. She was due at
Gonaives, after touching Fortune Island on
August q. She has not been heard from
since she left this harbor. Besides Juan 7.

A TERRIBLE WOUND
HORSE

We had recently a valuable horse
overreach in falling, and cut his leg
from his knee down to his ankle, COM
pletely uncovering the ankle joint,
making a very bad looking wound
eleven inches long. After putting in
seven stitches we put on cotton
bandage and wet it freely with Septi-
eide or times day. We did this
as an experiment, as it was highly re-
commended for fresh wounds. The
horse went to work in few days, show
ing no lameness whatever; no soreness
took place; no discharge of bloody
water or pus was seen oozing from the
wound, and one would not notice any
scar on the leg now. We believe, if
the Septicide is properly and plenti-
fully applied to fresh wound, it will
prevent all soreness and Inflammation
as we have used it on bad cuts among
our men with perfect success. In one
case man ran large splinter into his
hand, which did up with oakum and
wet it freely with, Septicide 3 or 4
times, and the hand got we'll without
any soreness. Septicide is a good
thing, and / know it.

A lady who lives on the hill was
alarmed the other evening by noise
in the yard and on looking out discov-
a man in the act of placing a ladder
against window in the second story
of the house, evidently with the in
tent of making secret entrance to
the house. The lady decended to the
first floor with the intention of escap-
ing through the front door and giving
the alarm. She was heard by the in
truder, who, instead of taking flight,
ratified the door-knob. In response to
stern demand as to who was there
he meekly replied that it was the man
of the house. He had arrived home
unexpected on late train and had
thought to enter his home without
unnecessarily arousing the household.
