Themselves Up for Trial.
CHICAGO, March 6.--Deputy Coroner
Barrett's first work when he arrived at
his office this morning was to prepare
under order Of Coroner McHale
mittimuses for the commitment
of Building Commissioner Louis
j. O'Neill, John York. Architect
Charles Furst and Contractor Muir
dock Campbell to the county jail. When
the jury in the York inquest returned
its verdict declaring these four Grim
lnally careless in not removing or sup
porting the north walls of the fire ruins
OF the York store and therefore respon-
sible for the death of eight victims it
was Late Saturday night. No courts
were in session or would be the follow
ing day. 1t was considered that it
would be an unnecessary hardship to
cause the arrest of the men held by
the jury at that time when they would
have to lie in jail some time before
they could give bail. Then, too, it was
realized they were all responsible bust
uesS men, not likely to leave the city
because of the verdict of the coroner's
jury. Therefore the making of the
mittimuses was postponed until noon
to-day.
Commissioner O'Neill. accompanied
by the attorneys for York, Furst and
Campbell, entered the coroner's Office
shortly before 10 o'clock and it was an
nounced that the indicted men were
ready to surrender to the sheriff, but
would like a few minutes in which to
secure bonds1nen. This was agreed to
and Deputy Coroner Foskett was sent
to States Attorney Kerns office, where
he was followed half an hour later by
the indicted four, who gave bonds for
their appearance before the grand
Jury.

The Hon. Josepn c. Sibley, the

yer speech last week, that in his

tion of Democrats, Popul,sts, Pro-
hbltlonist-, and k ckiug Kepubli-
cAnt; and we must be pad Jned for
.ay ing that his speech was as nike
AZ his politics, nor should We re.
gard any opinion ext res'ed in 1t
were 1t not that the opinion we Lave
mentioned is a specimen ol the most
com non ard oifeuslve stock bun.
com b. of some Of the indlscreet par
ii. ans of silver.
MIR. S,bey himself is only one OF
those freaks and sallinb lncoes of
politics, who are dumped into con
gress for its sins, strut aud gr.mace
before the gal erles for session or
a term, and then are 1t ard anu
heard no more. But in u king
about the saving grace of the West
and the South, he VAS talking the
same nonsense that some Southern
and Western journals and pubic
men Of ins fiji Jient cerebral diam
e,er are talking. According to
these, there is some speciaI gilt and
virtue in the South aud West, aud
these two parts of the country must
mite against the North aud the
Z .st and rule the county. 1t is a
new and nasty sort Of sectional
ism, called into being by the tx
citement of the silver question, aud
perhaps borrowing some unresson-
ablen ess and hamstrurg logic from
the Populists. 1t is mere froth aud
spume. of course, but it is not
agree able.
We can unders aud why men
grow fierce about religion and love,
bat why human beings supposed to
he rational should pet the Mysteries
over the silver question We cam OF
see. Because there are fewer Demo.
Gratis in the East than in the South
and the West who believe in free
coinsge, must the East be told that
1t is C onsplrator, not to be tolerat
ed by the other sections?.. We don't
dispute the wisdom and the virtues
of the South and the West, but it
seems to us that the East is still in
the Uniou, and that the salvation Of
the country is in the people, with
out regard to points Of the compass.
We wish some of these excited
friends, the silver disunionists, could
/, arm not to associate moral obi.
putty with difference of opinion.

Saved by a BlOtter.

A commercial traveller writes to the
st. Louis Globe-D Democrat: 1.-THE
blotter in a hotel writing room once
saved me from very considerable loss.
AS o general rule the blotter in o writ
ing is SO dirty and covered up
with ink marks that the whole presents
the appearance of an Egyptian
hieroglyphics. But on this occasion,
ms luck would have it, the blotter was
absolutely new and clean and could be
examined very closely. The last man
who had been using it was also the
first, and as he used rather q liberal
supply of ink and wrote rapidly he re-
produced almost the entire letter upon
the blotter before folding it up. l
knew him to be the representative of a
large Eastern house in asimilar though
not rival capacity to III own, and
without intending TO do 80, 1 found
myself glancing at the reproduction
of his letter on the blotter. / was
struck at once with the name of the
house from which I had the previous
day taken an exceptionally lnrge
order, and reading on I found that he
had notified his firm that, acting under
advice from q very reliable source, he
had decided not to carry out his in
structions and sell this firm a bill of
goods. went out at once and made
a few inquiries which convinced me
that not only was the house in ques-
ton in difficulties, but that it was also
contemplating a fraudulent transfer
to defeat its creditors. promptly
wired the house I represented to ignore
my letter by mail containing this
order, giving the reasons briefly, and
following up the telegram by an ex-
lplanatory letter. Some rather indig-
'nant correspondence followed, but
this was abruptly terminated by the
suspension of the Inter and the nh
'sconding of one of tho partners. |

Medicine In the Middle Ages.

In an entertaining article in the
Nineteenth Century on medieval med
icine, some curious prescriptions are
given. A person whose right eye was
infiamed or bleared was recommended
to stake the right eye of a Frogg, lap
it in n piece of russell cloth, and hang
it about the nec,:." The skin of a
ravens heel was prescribed for govt.
Difident young men will be interested
in this: eff you would have a man be-
come bold or impudent, let him carry
abou. him the skin or eyes of a lion or
cock, and he will be fearless of his
enemies; nay, he will be very terrible
unto them" The tendency to reti-
cence, which is so common a fault of
parliaments, municipal councils, etc,
might be cured by this treatment: 'If
you would have him laxative, give
him tongues, and seek out those of
water frogs and ducks, and such crea-
lures notorious for their continual
noise making"
If q man had q sounding Of a pip
ing in his ears" he was recommended
to put oil of hempseed, warm, into
them, sand after that let him leape
upon his one legge upon that side
where the disease is; then let him
bowe doune hys are of that syde, if
haply any MOISTURE would issue out"
The remedy for nose bleeding was to
''beat egge shales to pouder, and sift
them through q linnen cloth, and blow
them into hys nose; if the shales were
of egges whereout young chickens are
Matched, it we're 80 much the better"
Powdered earth worms mixed with
wine were recommended for jaundice.
Toothache might be relieved by an APP
plication Of the fat of 'tlittle greene
frogges," or of the ''graye worms
breathing under wood or stones, hav-
ing many fete." Frogs and toads were
favorite remedies, especially when
treated in some g~rotesquely barbarous
manne-. Popular prejudice against
medical science to-day is declining,
and will probably disappear alto
gether; but in the Middle Ages it
seems to have had avery rational basis.

Her II children brought into the Kingdom OF
God, she had but one more wish, and that
was that she might see her long absent mis-
sionary son, and when the ship from China
anchored in New York harbor and the long
absent one passed over the threshold OF his
paternal home she said, "Now, Lord, lettest
Thou Thy servant depart in peace, for mine
eyes have seen the salvation Inc prayer
was soon answered.
1t was an autumnal day when we gathered
from afar and ound only the house from
which the soul had fed forever. She looked
very natural, the hands very much as when
they were employed In kindness for her
children. Whatever else we forget, we never
forget the look OF mothers hands. As we
stood there by the casket We could not help
but say, Don't she look beautifully 1t was
n cloudless day when, with heavy hearts,
we carried her out to the last resting
place. The withered leaves crumbled under
hoof and wheel as we passed, and the sun
phone on the Raritan River until 1t looked
like fire but more calm and beautiful and
radiant was the setting sun OF that aged pill
grim's life. No more toll, no more tears, no
more sickness, no more death. Dear mother !!

The Horse.

In France, when a horse reaches
| the age of twenty or thirty, 1t Is del-
| tined for a chemical factory; it is first
relieved Of its hair, which is used to
stuff cushions and saddles; then it Is
skinned; the hoofs serve to make
combs.
Next the carCasc Is placed in a cyl.
in Ter, and cooked by steam at a pres
sure Of three atmOsphcrcs: a cock is
orened, which lets the steam run Off;
then the remains are cut up the leu
bones are sold to make knife handles,
etc ,-and the coarscr, the ribs, the
head, etc, are made into animal
black and glue.
The first are calcincd in cylinders,
and the vapOr, when condensed, form
the chief source of carbonate OF am
monia, which constitutes the base oil
nearly all the ammonical salts.
There Is an animal oil yielded
which makes Il capital inSecticide and
a vermifugc.
The bones to make glue, are dis,
solved In muriatic acid, which takes
the phosphate of lime away: the soft
element, retaining the shape Of the
bone, is dissolved in boiling water,
cast into squares and dried on nets.
The phosphate Of lime, acted upon
by suIphuric acid, and caicined with
carbon, produces phosphorus for our
luclfer matches.
The remaining flesh is distilled to
obtain the carbonate Of ammonia;
the resultIpG mass is pounded up
