Black Eye Doctor.
Shakespeare cobbler who said he
was "by way of being mender of
bad soles" had nothing on a Seventh
avenue barber in the Longacre neigh
borhood who holds himself forth as a
"'black eye doctor" No. he is not a
negro barber. He is just what his
sign says, black eye doctor. He is a
skillful remover of all signs of physi-
cal combat and night riders in the the
atrical and lobster palace district say
he does a thriving business.
Barbering is his regular trade and
black eye dOctoring is side line. The
barber Doctors threatment is both
medical and chromatic. First off, he
gives the victim treatment to remove
the pain of the kaleidoscope optic
bruise that is rapidly turning from
pink to red to vermillion, to yellow, to
green and purple, to blue and then to
black. After he has applied lotions,
beefsteak and all the well-known first
aids the doctor then brings forth q
makeup outfit and with dexterous
fingers paints the discolored eye and
its contiguous territory until it looks
natural and it would take an expert
observer to detect the discolored
bruise.
In a few minutes a man who has
had a fistic encounter can remove al
traces of it by visit to the black
eve doctor. The barber has a sliding
scale of charges, based on the appear
ance of his customer. If the disfigu &c
one wears a claw-hammer coat an'
high hat, and looks turtively about az
if dreading the appearance of the po
lice or reporters the BARRIERS gauges
his fee accordingly.

 Artillery Duel Years End.
 The great conflict, now entering upon it's tenth day, saw the gigantic struggle of the big guns fast reaching climax. Thus far the, artillery duel has been a draw and the contest now has resolved itself into one of human endurance with the bombardment of Soissons continuing with undiminish- ed and deadly effect, while into Rheims, already practically laid to waste, a steady stream Of German projectils still fall, although the bom- bardment lacks the energy of the previous days fusillade.
 The heavy guns were the cnly guns in activity around Rheims the light artillery still remaining in the trenches.
 Both sides Reinforced.
 The Germans have received re- Inducements at several points along their front, but these have been met by attachments in strength being brought up from the French reserves.
