Heard hY a Listener.

A person who took 1000 notes of the
conversation of young women which he
overheard in cars, on the street and in
various public places, reports that no
less than $50 begin with either "And [
said to him." or ''He said to me-" or
"She told me that he said )" $50 referred
to dresses or hats that were perfectly
lovely" or "just splendid" and the re-
mainder were pretty evenly divided be-
tween comments on other girls who
were "horrid' or 'stuck up and hate
holidays and the latest scientific discoy-
cries

He Had Heard 1t Before.

"Where am at?" is question which
flourishes at the fair, for however we'll
acquainted the visitor may think he is
from his studies of pictures of the
buildings, he is unequal to their COM
prehension when he mingles with them,
and he gets lost as easily as country
couple in town for the circus.
The Columbian Guard is everywhere,
though, and the Columbian Guard, next
after the fair itself, is the king bee of
the combination. He is present help
in every time of trouble, and his dis
position is divine. You can't ask him a
question he will not answer, and you
can't ruffle his temper any more than
Won can the bosom of hardboiled
shirt. That's what he is there for, and
he fills the bill from margin to margin:
He is the angel of the White City, and
if he hasn't wings, it IS only because
that sword he wears might get tangled
up in the feathers thereof.

EAGLE AND WOMAN FIGHT.
The Bird Resents Being Prevented From
Selling Poultry.

Selling Poultry.
Mrs. Mary Van Bushkirk, who re-
sides on farm near Gulf Summit, a few
miles east of this city, says Bing-
hampton, N. Y, dispatch, had an ex-
citing experience with large eagle last
Saturday. She had a flock of poultry
and hearing a great commotion among
the fowls went into the backyard to see
what was going on. She discovered
that an eagle was in the act of swooping
down upon hen. Mrs. Van Bush
kirk tried to frighten the bird
away when it attacked her fercely.
She secured a hatchet and after
hard struggle succeeding in dispatch
ing the eagle, but not until it had sunk
it's talons into her arm and badly lac
Grated that member. She was SO weak
after the battle that she tainted and
this is the condition a neighbor found
her in after being informed by her lit
tie son. Mrs. Van Bushkirk enjoys the
distinction of being the only woman
who has ever been attacked by an
eagle in these parts. The eagle meas
ured five feet in length and was brought
to this city.

VictOria'S Dogs.

Queen Victoria has ifty-fve pet dogs.
They live in the grandest canine style
that was ever known. Their dining
room is handsomely carpeted and orna-
mented with the portraits Of their cele-
brated ancestors in oil and water colors.
Some of the pictures are adorned with
tufts of the hair which belonged to the
and they despise all the low-bred ours
of creation. How nice it is to be a
queens dog.

Sweet Potato DAYS.

Travellers southwark reach the can
died sweet potato region in Southern
Virginia or northern North Carolina,
and when Northener has once been
persuaded to taste this product of negro
culinary skill he usually becomes fond
of it. The potatoes are first boiled, and
then, having been sliced, are fried, with
the addition of considerable sugar.
When properly cooked the slices are
almost like translucent amber. The
sweet potato pie is another form in
which Southern cooks prepare the
sweet potato. 1t corresponds to the
pumpkin pie of New England.

German
Syrup

I must say word as to the eff
ncacy of German Syrup. I have
used it in my family for Bronchitis,
the result of Colds, with. most ex-
cellent success. Ihave taken it my

derived good results therefrom. I
therefore recommend it to my neigh
bors as an excellent remedy in such
cases. James 7. Durette, Earlys-

An Amusing Incident.

An Amusing Incident.
A amusing incid, 1t occurred at
Tryon Stteet Baptist church in
Charlotte Sunday night, says the
Observer. Rev. Dr.. Pritchard was
preaching on g II ,son," and as he
was coming in on the home stretch
OF very aDle sermon, after round.
ing up several heads, he spoke of
Sampson faith. "And now," said
the speaker, finishing up this head,
"let US pray"-here he paused a
moment before going en- to say, "for
such faith" when to his surprise,
the congregation dropped On their
knees in the pause, and fell to pray
ing. The doctor taking in the sit
uation, with his natural astuteness
took the cue, and led the prayer,
bringing his sermon to close be-
ore re intended or expected to.
The occurrence was so ludicrous a
one that preacher as we'll as people
could hardly repress their laughter
until the final benediction. The
doctor will be careful hereafter no,
to make too long pause when in
viting his congregation to pray fol
any of the cardinal virtues.

WASHINGTON, April 12.-Chatles
E. Thomas, of South Carolina, has
been appointed confidential clerk
to the Commissioner of Railroads,
vice Willis A. Taylor, resigned.
It is understood that the Presi-
dent hiss rendered the Chief JUS
ticeship of the new Court of Ap-
peals for the District Of Columbia
to Martin F. Norris, a leading law
yer of this city. Norris has &C.
cepted the position according to re-
port, and has been in consultation
with the President concerning the
selection of the two other judges
of the court. The delay in sp'
pointment of judges has been oc
casioned by the inability of Mr.
Cleveland to decide whether hs
| shall appoint all the members OF th'
court from the District of Colum
bia, or whether he shall select out
siders. This question will be set
tied before tomorrow, when tn
President will nominate the thre

Stood The Test.

Allcocks Porous Plsstels are unap-
proachable in curative properties,
rapidity and safety of action, and
are the only reliable plasters ever
produced. They have successfully
stood the test Of over thirty years
use by the public; their virtues have
never been equalled by the unscru-
pulous imitators who have sought to
trade upon the reputation of ALL
cocks by making plasters with
holes in them, and claiming them
to be "just as good as Allcock's,
and they stand to-day indorsed by
not only the highest medical auth
critics, but by millions of gratefu,
patients who have proved their
efficacy as a household remedy.
Beware of limitations, and do mo-
be deceived by Misrepresentation
Ask for Allcock's, and let no solici
tions or explanation induce you t.
accept a substitute.

WAsH1NeroN, April 12--The Dem
ocratic Senators held a caucus this
morning, and decided there would
be no Investigation Of the Roach
case at this session. The resolution
of the Republicans will therefore
remain unacted upon when the Sen

naturally antagonize this proceed
ing, but it does notappear how they
can do so with any hope Of success
for the reason that adjournment can
be effected as soon as the President
notifies the Senate. He has nc
further communication to send. The

RAVAGES OF THE STORM.
WIDESPREAD DESTRUCTION IN

By Southern Associated Press.

CHICAGO, April 12.-Last night
the storm wrought such havoc with
telegraph wires that it was almost
impossible to obtain particulars of
the damage done in the west, where
destruction seems to have been gen.
eral and widespread in the states
OF Iowa, Illinois, Nebraska, Kansas
and Missouri. Probably the great
est damage is done in Iowa, al
though reports from Nebraska, in
dicate that when full particulars
have been received that the State
will lead in the loss of property
and human life. Along the line oi
the Chicago, Milwaukee and St
Paul Railroad in Iowa and Neb.
raska, the storm cut wide swath
The town of Akron in the former
State was wrecked, and Westfeld {
few miles distant was badly demor
alizsd. Meagre reports from To-
calities in the interior, show tn.
devastation to be widespread
although its full extent will
not be known for several days
owing to lack of telegraph facil
tiles and washing out of countr
roads, rendering communicated
difficult, and in many cases impos
sible. Continuing along the rail
road in Nebraska the storm swep
up the farm buildings, fences an
bridges, and finally swooped dow
on the town of Page, which
wrecked. At this point the frs
loss of life was reported, Mr.
Clara Magee being the victim. HI
| two children were dangerously il
, jured, and several other person
hurt. 1he storm travelled wi,
, great velocity, covering two hui
, dred miles between Akron ar
Page in an hour and half Mut
, i damage is done further west, b
owing to the complete prostratie
, of the telegraph wires absolute
no particulars are obtainable.

The Mine Disaster.

BY Cable.
LONDON, April 12.-The latest
news from Pont-"Y"- -Pfidd is to the
effect that the fire in the mine was
virtually quenched at 10 o'clock to-
day. Fumes Of gas, however, are
still so noxious as to drive out those
who undertook to explore the mine
in search of the dead and for the
rescue of those who might be living.
Many of the explorers are suffering
severely from the effects Of smoke
and deadly gases which they en-
countered. Further search will be
necessary to ascertain the full extent
of the calamity.
