Novoli St. tout * Kciubllcnn. | llobort M. Me O'lllonis ' died at his rcsidonco , No. 2500 Carr strcot , nt liloO on Kridny night , nnd wai buried from his late homo nt 2 o'clock Sun day afternoon in Calvary ceniotory. A Republican reporter viiitud the house yesterday afternoon nnd found an inconsolable widow a nd her two sisters mourning for the lost ono. A strnngo fact is that tlioy are left in circumstances far from comlortnble. As Sir. Me O'lUonis ( bolter known as Hob O'Hlonis ) was n notable man in St. Louis , it is lilting that a brief sketch of 'his ' career bo givon. Ho was born in 1'onnsylvnnin , and nt the time of his deatli was sixty-eight years , five months and a few days old Contiary to general belief , ho was a Scotch Presbyterian , or , r.ither , ho as a descendant fiom that hardy class of people , nnd thcro , physically speaking , a tough ciluon. Ho cnmo went when quito n youni { man , went to Mississippi , and then came to St. Lous , which city ho baa since made bis permanent homo for forty-livo years. Hero ho became ncqnninted with and married nn estimable young lady , the daughter of a descendant of n Spanish grandee , who wns a resident of St. Louts at the time the territory of Louisiana was a Spanish colony. Mrs. O'Blcnnis has two sisters living Mrs. Sylvester Oliontoau ; a widow , and Mrs. Win. J. Wood. "Dob" was a wild rather wayward youth , full of tire nnd vigor , moro swayed by impulse than reason , and consequently wns a very vindictive enemy and a fraud who would stick and hang till the last drop of blood shed. These traits , of course , made him many vengeful enemies nnd many fast friends , lie was a man of quick impulses , nnd it is reported that in the heat of passion ho KNIFED A MAN TO DEATH In Mississippi. Mr. O'UlcniB , like his subsequent partner , Erastus Wells , was not an educated man , but also like him , had a good hard head full of what is known as "horso sense. " Ho and a Mr. Matthews formed a co-partnership and started the first omnibus line of the city. Subsequently Mr. Matthews went out and Erastus Wells , recently member of congress , and a Mr. Case , wont in with 0 Blonis , the linn name being Case , O'Blonis it Wells. The latter helped the business along by driving ono of the 'busses. The line of omnibuses ran from the court house up north to Bremen , west to Rock Springs , the extremity of the city , and south to Vide Pocho ( see the pocket ) , now Carondolot or South St. Louis , which at the time was only a. little French village. O'Blenis continued to prosuer and be came quite a favorite with the Ger mans of the south end of the city , but , in an unfortunate moment while excited with drink and passion , ho used an axe on a Teuton's head to such an extent that the latter became an embecilo nnd subsequently died from the ett'ects of the injuiics so said. said.In In 1852 or thereabouts ono Judson , better known as ! Ncd Buntline , the author of sensational stories for cheap publications , who rode on the top wave of an excitement growing out of knoxV-nothingism , camera St. Louis At first O'Blunis took no part in die hurrah that was gotten up , but subse quently got to bo a great enthusiast in the cry of "Americana must rule America , " and when Bob went into anything ho went WITH I1IS W1IOLK IIKART and soul , the result being that ho was engaged in moro than ono desperate scropo braught on by the fpolhardi- ness of his companions and himself. Mr. O'Blenis was known for many years in this city as a desperate char acter and a gambling man. It is true that ho was interested in "square" gambling g.imes for many years , but ho was never known to play a game of cards himself , either for amuse ment or money , and there was never a p ) or person a sutferor that ap plied to him for financial aid that did not receive it. For many winters ho supplied some twenty-live poor fami lies with their coal during tlio winter time , and yet many no-called "sport ing mem" said ho was an icicle. God knows , and Ho will judge. That "Old Bob" was a sport from A to Izzard is probably better exem plified by a little incident than any thing else. Ho would bet on any thing , even as to which of two files would ily from the counter first. The incident , however : A number of years ago a building on Pine street , between Third and Fourth , whore De Bar's opera house and tlio Theatre Comiquo were afterward ? ! , was occu pied by a Gorman aa a beer saloon. This Gorman owned a stallion ; so , also , did O'Blonis. One day ' " was in the saloon , and tlio relative qualities of the horaea were discussed , each claiming his waa the be * * * f l : nally , they marked. , * ' " ' estimated value of the peotivo uiiimuk on slin "e tllur n"d compared them , cinch had marked $ (00. ( Bob then said : "I'll throw you dice to BOO which has both horses. " The Gorman said "All right ; I'll go you. " Bob went out and soon after ward appeared with his stallion and I.BD HIM INTO THK HALOOJf , But the German backed out. Bob said ho bad brought his horse over to bo raflled for and ho was going to raflle him oil * forty chances at $10 a chance. Only one man tookachanco , and after waiting KOIIIO time for "drop ins" and nobody earing to invest , Bob said ho would take the'other thirty-nine chances. Thu two men throw , the stranger scoring forty-ninoj Bob throw the remainder of the chances , but Bob lost his $400 horse , consoling himself with the remark : "Well , stranger , you'd bettor sell him pretty quick , or he'll cat liiu head oil' , as he linn done for me two or three times. " As intimated above Mr. O'Blonis was a man of violent passion , and no matter whether for good or evil he gave his feelings full sway. At onetime time it was stated on pretty good au thority that ho killed a man by the name of Smith at the Planters' house , but as nothing ever came of it thu presumption was that the deed waa justifiable. Subsequently , however , there were angry words at the Plan ters' between him and Mr , Brandt , who at the time waa deputy city mar shal. This was in 185S or ' 54. O'Blonis claimed that ho was grossly insulted and went down to his stable , next door cast of the present llopnb- licnn otlice , got his pistol , whont back- to the drinking-saloonof the hotel and allot Brandt dond. For this ho wns arrested , tried , convicted and HKNTKNCKl ) TO T1IK PKNITKXTl.UlY For twontyfivo years. After remain ing there n few months , some extenu ating circumstances being nmdepatetit to the then governor Bob StewArt ho wnsgnxntod n pardon. Some years later a frequenter of his sporting- house expressed his intention of kill ing some ono on sight , when Bob quietly remarked : "Well , I used to bo a d n fool , but 1'vo got over it ; you can go nnd do your killing if you want to , but for my part , 1'vo been through the mill and don't want anymore moro of it in mine ; it has cost mo half a dozen fortunes. " On the nth of July , 1801 Mr. O'BlcntiH received a severe paralytic stioke , from which ho pnrtinlly recov ered , but afterwards had four other strokes , which rendered him a com plete cripple. Notwithstanding this his firmness of will and tenacity of purpose was such that , with the aid of a crutch nnd a cane , ho managed to hobble around the streets until a little moro than a year ago , when ho wns compelled to keep his room , but oven then he would half fall , half slide out of bed , nnd on his hands and knees dr.ig himself about the room rather than put his devoted wife to any additional trouble. The immediate cause of the death of Mr. O'Blenis was apoplexy. Al though ninny wjll say ho wns n had man , theiu are hundreds of oilier poor people who will say ho was a kind-hearted gentleman , full of rou > > h words , but with his purse- strings relaxed. Bradford , Pa. The * . Pitchan , Bradford , Pn. , writes : " 1 uncloio money for Si'iusu Hi.oficoii , ns I said 1 would It it cured me. My dyspep sia has vanished , with nil its sj mptonis.

St. Loula Chronlclo A heavy red curtain hung to the lloor between two women. The ncgrcps utsido pushed it slightly and looked into the stall. She saw hang ing from .hooks at either side nnd over th shelved mirror the principal essen tials of the female liguro. Thq"corner stone of this structure drew together behind n wooden stool. > "Plcaso don't. ' " > "I suppose you don't know rfliat to do ? " . / ; "No. " % "Why , just strip and wrap jiip in that there sheet on the stool. Then coma out untUI will toll you. " V Presently emerged thence some thing very similar to Bernhardt's "vis ion of death , " whereat the attendant opened another door with : ' 'Hero's another hury. " / It was in the Turkish bath of , Sev enth street. Not long ago Claratk'lle , Now York correspondent of tlib Cin cinnati Enquirer , described a yisifc to the bath made by her in Gotham ; She gave a most flattering description of the bullea of the metropolis , and , un less the picture was shaded , Now- York women are less.fuir.to look'upon whoh unadorned than1 when adorned HTo most. "Ladies here are better look ing , " was declared , and the Ohrorji- cle's feminine representative invaded the bath yesterday , to BOO with liijr own eyes , that she mighthorcaftertoll the truth with her own pencil. The air was hot and dry , and'thb floor tiles much warmer , and , after th'o manner of a cat with its feet tied in paper , the newcomer hopped into the only vacant chair of four. "Why , it's hot , too. " "Yes , jou'ro there to iswoat. Lie down.1' The speaker approached with a cold , wet towel and placed it on her patient's fonmoad. She was n plump white woman , and she was in a sleeveless red shirt and gold hoop earrings. Then she wont out nnd moro heat came in from a largo yellow pipe crossing the room. Four pair of eyes read" that "to got your feet warm place them on the floor , " while the tees all arow pointing to the blue skylight involun tarily turned about or turned up. ' " "Is any ono perspiring ? " was ven tured. "Yes , indeed. " "It's just terrible. " "Sly fnco in dripping.1 "How much does ono lose in w * by this operation ?

" "You should show mercy , " "Thoio , stretch out on that marble , face up. " "Why , it's like a morgue.
