"a sacrilegious son of Belial who has
suffered from bronchitis, having ex-
hausted his finances, in order to make
good the deficit resolved to ally him
self to a comely, lenient and docile
young lady of the Malay or Caucasian
race. He accordingly purchased
calliope and coral NECKLACE of a
chameleon hue. and, securing a suite
of rooms at a principal hotel. he en-
gagged the head waiter as his coadiuto
lie then dispatched a letter of the
most unexceptional caligraphy extant,
inviting the young lady to a matinee.
She revolted at the idea; refused to
consider herself sacrificable to his de
sires, and sent polite note of refusal,
on receiving which he procured car
bine and bowie knife, said that he
would not now forge letters hymeneaI

There are a great many mistakes cur
rent as to the nature and symptoms of
hydrophobia. 1t does not occur most
frequently in the summer. but in the
spring, nor has the rabid dog, as a rule,
a dread of water, nor does he refuse to
drink. On the contrary, even after
the disease is fully established, the
mad dog often tries his best to drink,
sometimes plunging his nose deeply
under water in his effort to swallow.
but is unable to do so on account of
spasms which affect his throat. Rab-
les is disease the course and synp-
toms of which are as well known as
any other. The first symptoms are a
restlessness and uneasiness on the part
of the dog; then he begins to have hal
lucinations; he will run to a particu-
lar spot as though he saw some one
there; he viii turn his head and snap
and bark in one direction at an invisi-
bic enemy. A well-marked symptom
is his tendency to gnaw and swallow
hard objects, bits of wood, stones and
such like. But the bark of a rabid dog
is thing which once heard can never
be forgotten; it is impossible to mis-
take it, and if the dog gives no other
symptom than a hoarse, mufIIe1 bark,
followed by three or four gurgling
efforts from the bottom of his throat,
there can be no uncertainty after that.

Spokane's silver Mass Meeting.

SPOKANE, Aug. le.--Fhe silver
mass meeting, called by the Spokane
Bimetallic club, proved to be a grand
success tonight. Over 2000 people
attempted to crowd into the hall and
they all shouted until they were
hoarse. Every mention of free coin
age brought hearty cheers and every
mention OF the selfish goldbugs
brought Kisses. 1t was grand dem
onstration and the leading business
men of the city we're present. The
ladies were also there and they waved
their handkerchiefs while the men
shouted. Grover Cleveland got
many hard slaps from the orators for
his message, especially because he
measured all standards Of value by
gold. Attorney GeneF.l Jones, Col
onel j. ". Feighaa, Jsage Glaggett
and F. S. Hyde were among the
speakers.
Secretary Armstrong made a report
of the clubs work. He said: 1--WE
forwarded today to Congressman Will
son petitions from 81 towns in eastern
Washington. Spokane took the lead
with 1878 names. Judging by the
| reports from the towns where the
petition has been circulated fully 70
per cent of the voters of Washington
are in favor OF free and unlimited
coinage.
The following resolution was passed
amid great enthusiasm, and the sec
retary was ordered to wire it to con
gress tomorrow 1--WE, the people oi
Spokane, demand that our represen-
tatives in congress shall oppose the
I repeal of the Sherman law, unless a
substitute bill is passed. providing
for free and unlimited coinage of sill
yer and gold at ratio OF sixteen to
one.r

Going Back to Buzzard's Bay

WASHINGTON, Aug. l0.-Within two
days Cleveland will return to Buz-
Yards Bay, and no matter how inn
portant the reason that takes him
there the effect will have q tendency
to disorganization, and those who
have carefully watched the situation
from the inside are of the opinion
that it will be almost impossible for
him to hold his party together for any
concerted action on the financial is
sue. Unfortunately for Cleveland,
no member of his cabinet, except
Lamont, are on terms with the leaders
in the house or senate. With Cleve-
land at Buzzard's Bay, Lamont, alone
and unaided, will be called upon to
act as Cleveland's whip. Without
wishing to disparge Lamont it looks
as if he will be likely to have a hard
road to travel.

men adjourned at :3sand proceeded
to further conference with the free
silver men.
A prominent silver man stated that
the matter had narrowed down to a
question as to which, repeal or free
coinage, should be voted on first This
question is now being discussed.
Carlisle is credited with advising
the anti-silver men to insist on an
unconditional repeal OF the Sherman
law. and to reach vote on this sub
iect as soon as possible.
