BLOOD ON HIS CUFFS.
why Physician Was Regarded With
Suspicion.


'T had rather q gruesome adventure

ington physician to a writer for the
Star. 81 had been UP all night with
patient, on whom l had performed
critical surgical operation. 1t was
question whether he would recover from
the shock In fact, 1t was touch and go.

Of them eyed me strangely. Those OF
them who sat down near me quickly

seat next TO mel was in one OF the
front corners-looked at me. got up has

Nobody else took the vacant place.

puzzled. / observed the faces Of two or
three men who sat opposite me, and
thought they gained at me with an ex-
preston OF horror and disgust. What
could II mean? l began to feel alarmed.
Just then 1 CHANGED to look down at
one of my cuffs. 1t was saturated with
blood. The other cuff. / noticed for the
first time, was bloody also. My trous-
ers were spotted with blood. and there
were fresh stains on my coat-sleeves.
My anxiety about the patient and sub
sequent exhaustion had prevented me
from thinking Of the matter. and / had
not done mere than wash my hands
before starting for home
AT once l saw what the trouble was.
The people in the car could find no other
way OF accounting for my condition than
to suppose that 1 had Just killed some
body. They sized me up for a murderer.

WANTED HIS HEAD CUT OFF.
Jealous Lover Takes Magician's jest for
Earnest.

An amusing scene was recently enacted
AZ Lille. says the Lyons Republican. Al
the conclusion OF one OF his performances
garbacan, the conjurer. addressed the
audience as follows: Coming TO the
sensational part OF the programme. now
propose to decapitate one OF the specta-
tors. Any gentleman who would Ike TO
undergo the operation Is invited to step
on the platform"
At these words there arose young
man from Armentieres, who, in a MT OF
jealousy. had quarrelled with his intend
ed. ard he ran W the steps leading TO
the platform, firmly resolved In his de-
SPAR to have his head cut OF. Every
thing was now ready for the decapita-
ton. and the audience sat waiting IN
breathless suspense. when suddenly the
sweetheart OF the Knight of the rueful
countenance" rushed upon the stage, ex-
claiming.

upon she clasped her lover To her arms
and dragged him with main force out or

DIET FOR THE AGED.
Food That VIII Invlgorate and Restore
Energy.

Energy.
l find, saws q writer IN the Gentleman's
Magazine, that If old people are put on a
good meat diet in the way of strong soup,
beef tea. and animal food. and only lust
sufficient farinaceous food, and fats, and
sugar to maintain the heat of the body,
they increase wonderfully in energy, and
as they often express 1t, feel twenty years
younger. This IL only natural: ii is food
of energy the food that builds MP muscle,
nerve. and constitutional stamina.
The requirements of the system OF old
age, as rule. are not very great, and more
harm is done by taking too much food
than by taking too little. / have known
people considerably over 40 derive the
greatest. benefit from thorough change
in diet. II seems to rejuvenate them. OF
course IN old age care should be taken
that the body is not subject to rapid
changes of temperature. When the ner-
yous power IL decreasing. as the result Of
old age. and the system is losing power OF
combating cold and strain upon its energy,
q stimulating diet jnylgorates and is con:
ducive to maintaining constitutional
stamina better than any'other.
Any natural death but from old age and
general decay is an accidental death-tha
is, it IS due 70 causes, which might. and
even, perhaps, could have been entirely
avoided and remedied IN earlier years.
But of course all the secrets of attaining
extreme age are not even now within our
reach, and the few that have pointed out
are but very few. and those of the CON-
moness.
1t is the inevitable law of nature that We
must die. The vital energy that Is implant-
ed i'll the body at birth is the only means
to sustain 1t for certain number OF years.
1t may be husbanded or wasted. made to
burn slowly or rapidly. 1t Is like the oil
in a lamp. and may be burned out to little
effect in little time, or carefully hus-
banded and preserved. and thus made to
last longer and burn brighter.
IL is mooted question whether every in
divIdual is not at birth gifted with the
same amount of vital energy and of life
sustaining power. The probability is that
each is. The circumstances OF the en-
vironment from the cradle to the grave
determine its future destiny.

CLAY.WARD AcTlVES.
Eppe's Resolution Endorsed-Mr. W. X.
Meredith Speaks.

Over a hundred enthusiastic Democratic
warriors attended the meeting OF the Clay
Ward Actives last night, and the cosy
quarters of the organization were unable
TO accommodate the crowd that assembled
TO hear the proceedings.
The club decided to have a grand OPEN
air meeting on oregon Hill next Tuesday
night, the time and place to be selected
by the committee in charge. The speak
ers for the occasion will be Messrs. G. V.
Meredith and Beverley =. Munford.
Mr.. +. +. Burke moved to take from
the table the amended Epps resolutions.
which were voted down at the last meet
ing. The motion was carried.
The measure, as considered by the for
mer meeting, demanded the election of
all the heads Of departments except the
Chief of Police. Chief of Fire Department,
and Superintendent OF Public Charities
by direct voice OF the people. Mr.. Burke
made vigorous speech in advocacy OF
the measure. which. as he stated. en-
bodied the truest Democratic principles.
He said the people wanted 1t.
Mr.. Emmett Hill offered as a substi-
tute that the club pass the Epps resolu-
ton. provided II be so amended as to in
clude the Police Justice. President of the
Board Of Health. police and fire commits
sioners
President Evan Snead Gir. +. A.
French in the chair expressed his regret
that this matter should have been sprung
in the meeting. He did not think II ger
name to the present campaign, and be-
lieved that 1t might possibly injure the
cause II considered just now. He said 1t
might create feeling OF enmity In our
ranks and either keep people from the
polls or produce apathy. Mr.. Snead urged
his hearers, whether they favored the
measure or not. to postpone any action
upon 1t until after the election. He moved
that the matter be laid on the table until
the meeting In November. which came
after the election.
Mr.. Burke vigorously protested against
Mr.. snead's motion. and Mr.. Gardner
made ringing speech in Its behalf.
Mr.. snead's motion was lost by vote

The question then came UP on Mr..
