Thev Eoueht over a oIrl.


ARKADELrHlA. Ark. August 1.-Two
well-known young men Of this place recent
ly fell out over mutual presensions to the
hand Of one Of the local bellies and wanted
II shoot 1t out" but were prevailed on by
friends TO settle il in less deadly manner.
80 agreed to leave il to the strength Of their
fists to decide which was the better man.
For time both observed the rules laid down
for such occasions, but one Of the combat
ants, finding that his antagonist was getting
the better of him and frenzied at the
thought OF losing the girl and being con-
ouered by his rival. began novel mode Of
attack by laying hold of the others thumb
and proceeding 10 bite It of. The victim
tried to wrench himself loose from the teeth
that neld him, calling on the bysianders TO
help him, but before they could interfere
the savage young man then fixed his teeth
in the arm of the man he held and bit him
to the bone.
It was necessary to choke him nearly into
insensibility before he would let 90, while
the attacked man tainted under the torture.
His arm turned black and swelled to such
an extent that il was thought that the bite
must have poisoned the blood and that am
putation would prove necessary, but though
it is still swollen and very painful be will
recover without loss of the limb. The man
who resOrted 10 this unusual means Of con-
quering his antagonist has left for Texas,
for the other VOWS he viii have bis life for
his cowarily attack. The girl married the
wounded man the day after the fight and is
nursing him well in order that he may fol-
low his enemy.

iag but talk; talk threshing over thrice
threshed straw, and 50 it is ordered TO
continue until the 2Sth inst The House
was az well prepared to vote on the silver
question on the first day Of its session as
il will be on Monday next, but what
care the Iemocratic factions coniending
for mastery for the interests Of the peo-
pie if a petty advantage can be obtained
one over the other. The Senate has, If
possible, been more derilect Of duty than
has been the house. Il hasn't even taken
up the financial question, but has sleePi-
ly and detiantly refused 10 make an effort
to relieve the country, careless Of its anx-
ieiy and distress, and even If the House
comes to a vote there is no telling when
it viii actively take up and act upon the
all-absorbing issue Of the hour. The
question Is simply one Of honest
money" and so-called statesmen higgle
and wriggle and delay action. It is the
uncertainty that kills. Even if the worst
comes to the worst, business must and
will adjust itself to the inevitable.
Let it not be forgotten that this is a
Democratic Congress, Democratic in both
Houses and that a Democratic faction
fights the cause Of all this delay and Of
all the ominous clouds overhanging the
entire business Of the country. Il is a
repetition Of the old, old story Of Nero
iddling while Rome burned.

Fair Visitors Increasing.

CHICAGO, Aug. 20-The week Just closed
was record breaker in point OF attendance.
The number of visitors during theseven days
was 79O. .i76, an increase over last week of
1l0,57S. The average for the week, emitting
last Sunday, on which day but IS $40 paid
admissions were recorded, is l25, ,695. Yester-
days attendance was I65, ,9SI, being the best
day Of the Fair, with the exception of July
4, when 2sS,373 paid admissions were
registered. The record is very gratifying to
the Exposition management, and with a
little help from the railroads in the matter of
excursion rates, they expect to see a great
increase from this time on.
Director General Davis thinks the country
people increased the attendance during the
week, and predicts that many Of that class
viii visit the Fair later, as their harvest
work is nov about finished.

Jerry Wants information.

WASHINGTON, August 17.-Immediately
after the adjournment of the House to-day,
Jerry Simpson, Of Kansas, walked across
the floor TO the desk Of ex-spcaker Reed for
the purpose, a. be said, ofadding something
to his stock of information on the financial
situation There is always considerable in
tellectual exhilaration when Tom and Jerry
get together. Mr. Reed said: TO people
Sho reason in a small circle the present con
dition Of affairs is extraordinary, but if we
look at the history of the world we will re-
alize the fact that nations, like individuals,
every once in awhile stop business long
enough to take stock and inventory Of Their
business. That is what this country is do
ing now. If the financial problem were left
alone to the great fl nanciers the result
would not so nearly approximate perfection,
as a financial measure which will be evolved
from the wisdom Of all minds.
Every man has a niche TO i'll in this
world, and the Populist and Anarchist and
Socialist probably ell have their mission to
perform under the direction Of Providence.
Often times We learn wisdom from fools. l
have no doubt that out Of this chaos there
will come peace and tranquility.
presume you mean me when you refer
to P0p1lists and fools. said Jerry.
Not necessarily meaning you. but in
cluding you, said Mr.. Reed.

FIends Cripple Children.


VIENNA, August IA gang of men have
been arrested in Biskupitz, Croatia. because
they have mutilated young children. The
men have for years made trade oferippling
children and then sending them out TO beg
or selling them to Others for the same pur-
pose.
Children were stolen or were misled with
promises TO ysit the house kept by the gang
on the outskirts of the town. Once there
they were bound and tortured.
When the police forced their way into the
house yesterday they found two girls of II
or Il years with their legs broken. Another
girl Of about the same age lay bound on E
bed with her right arm broken and both
eyes gouged out. Two other children, hard
y less horribly mutilated, were found on
cots in the cellar.
Many instruments which have been used
in producing physical deformities were un-
covered in the celler and were seized for
evidence.

Rejected Prohibition.

DEs MoNEs. IA, Aug 1.-THE State Re
publican convention yesterday nominated
Frank d. Jackson. Of this city. for governor
and Warren 5. Dangan, Of Lucas county,
for lieutenant governor. The platform prae-
tieally sbandons prohibition. The plank on
the subject is as follows
Prohibition is no test Of Repnblicanism.
The general assembly has given to the State
prOhibitory law as strong as any that has
ever been enacted by any country. Like
any other criminal statue its retention, mod
ihcatiOn or repeal must be determined By
the general assembly elected by and in sym
psthy with the people, aud 70 them is rele-
gated the subject to take such action as they
my deem just and best in the matter of
maintaining the present law in those por-
iions Of the state where il IS now or can be
made efficient, and give TO the localities suck
methods Of controlling and regulating the
liquor traffic as viii best advance the cause
Of Temperance and morality"

mittee on resolutions was read by Sam NJ.

nation Of Bud Parker, Deputy Collector

day and visited the cell Of Charles Wellborn
a noted swindler, where he captured a mini
ature Illicit still which Wellborn has made

worm, three tin boxes as fermenters and a
spittoon as q furnace Molasses, apples and
the ike, furnished the prisoners as food,
were used as material for making the rum.

Hunter for Illicit disdlling. The still was
produced in court and Wellborn seemed TO
delight in explaining its operation. Il had
a daily capacity for one gallon. Wellborn
was bound over in the sum of 500. The
Jail has been fall Of moonshiners, and from
these Wellborn learned to make the whisky.
WelIborn's : record reads like a romance.
Two years ago he had an Office here. Big
consignments Of goods were shipped to him,
for which he never paid. After his arrest
for fraudulent use Of the mails he forged a
bond and escaped, going TO New York, where
be stole yacht and sailed for Florida.

Silver Men Flop.

WASHINGTON, Aug 2l.-The beginning of
the third week of the special session finds
the anti silver men stronger than they were
a week ago. Whether the discussion in the
house has changed anybody's mind or not,
it has developed some unexpected things
and shown that some Of the people who
were with the silveriies are not unwilling 10
vote for an unconditional repeal, aud take
chances on getting some silver legislation
later on. And it is quite probable that the
more the discussion goes on the greater the
number Of people will be found with this
feeling.
The statement was made to-day in posi-
tive terms that four or five southern sen
ators who have been counted as silver men
have indicated their determination to fol-
low the lead Of Senator VOORHEES,, and vote
for unconditional repeal

A MALICIOUS TumOr having been circu-
lated some time since that more than 200
National banks have failed, Mr.. Eckles
Comptroller OF the Currency, has deemed
It his duty to make a public contradic-
tion OF the falsehood. He saws that
there are nearly 5000 National banks in
the country; that only i05 have suspend
ed that a considerable majority OF these
have already resumed payment or have
applied for permission to resume: that
only % Of them are actually in the hands
Of receivers, and that most Of those still
IN the hands Of the bank examiners viii
reopen. Most OF the suspended banks
were small institutions situated in those
parts Of the country which are most az
fecied by the silver craze, and were ex-
posed 10 an unreasonable excitement.
Considering these facts, it must be admit
ted that our National banking institutions
have proved tLeir solidity, and are en-
titled TO the increased confidence Of the
whole business community.
