Nobody said so , but ono of the dea
cons took advantage of the pause to slip
out to the nearest telephone and ring up
police headquarters.
"Yes , sir , " ho continued , "ho lies ,

Another holdiir of a part of ticket

n The Louisiana State Lottery , collected
la money yesterday. Mr. Lewis Say-
mill presented his ticket , drew his
lieck and was perfectly cool and picas-
lit. Ho ia a nutivp ot Memphis , v/aa at

There Is n remarkable tree or shrub in
email gulch near eumo springs about
wolvo nn lea north of Tuscarora. It is
ibout six or BUVOII feet in height , with a
runk which at ila basu la thrue times the
izo of a man's wrist. It has innumora-
ilo branches and twigs nnd rosomblus
onunvhut the bnrbary treo. But its ro-
uarkublo characteristic is its foliage ,
vhich nt n certain season of the year is
o luminous that it can bo plainly distill-
; uiahod in the darkest night for a dis-
unco for more than n nuh > , vrhilo in its
mmcdiato vicinity It otnita aulllciunt
light to enable ft porann to rend the finest
print. Its foliage ii extremely rank nnd
its leaves reenmbo ! aorrovhat in six ,
shape , nnd color those of thn aromatic
bay tree of Cilifoinia. The luminous
property ia evidently parasitic and con-
siets of a aort of gummy substance ,
which , upon boinj ; trausfcrrod by rub
bing to a person's hand imparts to it the
same apparently phosphorescent light ,
while that on the leaf entirely disappears.
The Indians regard it with superstition
and will not approach it oven in the daytime -
time if they can possibly avoid it. They
have a name for it , which literally in
terpreted signifies "witch troo. " An old
Shoshone informed the writer that thcro
were only two others in the entire
country ? but the closest questioning fail
ed to elicit the slightest information in
regard to their localities. Ho would
only shako his head gravely nnd ejacu
late , "Bad modiciuo. " Tuscarora ( Nov )

U. P. Huntington , whoso roccnt marriage -
riago ia the latest nppcaranco ot Wall
street in wedlock , will probably , during
the coming scnpon make nn attempt for
a tirst-clnus social position. This will
not bo dlllicult for the vicc-ptcsidcnt of
the Central Pacific road. Ho was ono of
its builders , and made an immense for
tune out of hia contracts , and ho baa
been nblo to retain bin position aa vice-
president , while Sidney Dillen ( president
of the Union Pacific ) was obliged to re
sign. When Central Pacific was above
par Iluiitington una estimated at $15-
000,000. Ho has seen the quotations
decline immensely , however , and this
makca a marked ditloronco in his wealth.
The market is now advancing , but it will
bo a long time before former quotations
are recovered. Huntington is a largo
man , and stands at least six foot high ,
with a full development. Ho begun
poor , nnd now that ho is rich ho likoa to
talk about the times when $50 a month
was big vrng.cs. Ho has a splendid house
in Park avenue , to which ho will bring
his bride at the close of their present
tour. Stocks began to advance the very
day that wedding took place. What an
omen of future happiness.
These Wall street marriages are gener
ally successful. Commodore Yandcrbilt ,
for instance , left his widow
§ 800,000 in bonds , which yield $1,000 a
wook. August Belmont settled a fortune
on hid wife including a Fifth avenue
palace. The old commodore is now
merely a memory , and Wall street
abounds in similar associations. 'Among
the former magnates of the stock cx-
wcro the Jeromes , whoso history has
some points of marked interest. There
was throe brothers of that name , nous of
a poor farmer , and they were all brought
up by a rich undo who lived at Palmyra.
The oldest , Addison G. , wont to Roches
ter "many- years nj < o and engaged in
journalism , and was followed by hia
brother Lcanord who adopted the eamo
business. A. G. Jcromo afterwards eamo
to this city and became a dry goods job.
bor , whence ho drifton into Wall street ,
ind was a prominent speculator
but never reached the distinction
attiined by Lcanord. lie wap , how
ever , an admitted power in the stock
board , and was at ono time csMnwtcJ at
§ 500,000. His career lasted from 1801
; o lk3 ! , when Henry Keep drew him in-
o a reckless speculation in "Old South
ern , " aa it wna termed , which was ruin-
) U3. Hn died in 184 ( ! of n disease super-
nduced by Wall street excitement , nnd
ill that was loft of his unco splendid
vcalth was what ho had settled on his
vifo. Leonard W. Jcromo followed his
irothor into Well street , and became a
oadcr in that bull movement which cre
ated so many fortunes out of the inlU-
ion. Morse , Tallin , and some other
laro brained operators worj in thn same
novomont , anil chared its brief success ,
nit soon went to ruin. Jerome was
nvorod'twith direct communication from
ho I'nion army , and had earlier udviceu
f its disasters than any other man in
Vail street. It is said that ho nact an
ccomplico in a certain general , whoso
elegrams were of the following style :
'The boy is hurt,1' which meant defeat ,
'his was followed by another telegram :
'Tlio boy is woreo , " which needed no
ntorprotation.
On mich information Jcromo purchased
muu'iiso quantities of stock , which rose
npidly as the disasters became known
nd brought the inevitable advance in
ecuilties. At last came the telegram ,
'The boy Is dead , " which announced the
ailuro ot McClullan's campaign , and Jo-
omo again dipped heavily into the mar-
; ot , meeting splendid success. The lat
er , howovnr , was aa brief aa it had boon
jrilliant. Joronio for nwhilo moved
tmong the ephemeral millionairea of the
Dilution , but ho was afterwards led to
nvest the largest part of hia profits in
'acific Mail , in which ho mot a Waterloo
ofont. Jerome became bewildered by
lie rapidity of fortune's favors , and was
anguiuo to a degree that wna almost like
nsauity. Ho bought Pacific Mail t 200 ,
nd thus led many investors who were
nzzled by his success to follow his ex-
mplo. The result was immense- loss ,
nd in some instances those unfortunate
loople were reduced to poverty. Pncific
\Iall \ had been blown from CD to . ' ! 00 by
raudulent dividends , and when this
scheme could no longer bo sustained the
imitations foil to 10 , It was fortunate for
Icrome that during his splendid success
10 had settled n largo amount on h a
rifo. This included the estate which haa
nice become known ns Jerome Park , nnd
omo other property , which gave him a
landsnmo support after hia losses had
Invcn him into retirement. Part of his
miperty is in Fourth Avenue , which is n
lighly valuable locality. Uno of his
daughters , however , married n British
loblcman , nnd a settlement of $10,000 on
he bride was demanded by the groom
n order to consummate the mutch , it i
said , the inirents mortgaged their best
iroperty to the required nnunmt. He
ia handled nn immense amount of
noney , and had ho retired at the same
line might have been a millionaire ; but
his ia too much to expect uf any spocu-
ator. lie holds , however , n reepcctnblo
social position , which ia more than can
jo said of most of the ex-kings of Wall
street.
Lawrence Jerome , the third of the
lame , followed his brother into Wall
street , whcra he has been operating fur
years with varied success. Ho was alaj
one of Bennett's favorite * , and though
they occasionally quarrelled , the nttnrh-
ment waa not impair.d. This is shown
bytho fact that when Bennett , on hi !
return from Europe , found that Jerome
had bcpn unfortunate in his operation !
ho expressed his sympathy in a verj
handsome manner. Aa Jcromo wanted
to tty his hand as a broker , Bcnnotl
paid $25COO for a sent in the stock exchange -
change , and gave it to him as nn uncon <
ditional present. This shows Bnnnott't
impulsive liberality. Lawrence Jerome
is often confounded with Leo
nard , owing to the similarity ol
the name but in social position n :
well ns financial distinction they nro vorj
different , The snmo dillorotico exists in
tioir families , as Leonard's children nre
daughters , while Liwrouco has sons ,
Liwrcnco Jerome is now among the eldest <
est members of the stock board , beinij
ono of the small number that can romonv
bor the thrilling scenes of the inflation ,
Ho has had a very exciting life , nnd
hence is disposed to nvoid the sensational
features of Wall street for the more
practical. If any man will limit hlmsoll
to brokerage in its Irgitimato sense , he
can make the business fairly profitable ,
but this is ono of the most difficult
things in the world. Brokers , indeed ,
can hardly avoid becoming speculators ,
and hence they are at ono time the favor
ites and at another the victims of fort
une. .

I certify with pleasure to the following
facts : My daughter , ten years old , con
tracted the chills August 1877 , on the
Ohio llivor. No prescription over ef
fected moro than a temporary suppress
ion of the disonso no tonics kept it off.
But ( ho use of two bottles of Hughes'
Tonic cured her completely. S/ic hail
no chill after fakinrltr Jirsl dose. L also
recommended the Tonic in thn case of a
two year old child of n neighbor , which
had the chills for moro than a year. The
child is perfectly cured biIhr nsc of
one bottle. 1 recommend Ifuyhcs' Tonic
to all Biill'orcrs from chills ana fever.

"Wo have some peculiar specimens of
pcalmastcrn in Arkansas , " said Gon.
Edgarton to a Post-Dispatch reporter.
"How is thaU"
"I received this letter from the hon
orable gentleman who superintends the
mail at Spoonvillo , which was in answer
to ono 1 sent him n few days ago. 1
wrote him as follows :
"Mr. , postmaster at Spoonvillo ,
Ark. Sir : I : vm informed that the busi
ness of the postollico of your place is con
ducted in the same room where whisky
is retailed to customers. This , you
know , is contrary to postollico rules and
regulations. Please explain. "
To this I signed my name in my of
ficial capacity. Here is his reply ; after
the Buperscription :
"Sir : If you don't liko'my way of do
ing .business you can lake your d d
postoflico and ship it up Salt crook.
Yours , .
"P. S. I've boon trying to got rid of
the d n thing for four yoars. "
"Woll , what will you do ? "
"Oh , nothing , I suppose. You see the
oflico ia not worth $12 a year , and wo
have to take a great deal from these fol
lows. "
OEN. UDOAUTOX
tolls another story of nn experience ho
had not long ago with a postmaster at
Star City. Information had been receiv
ed at thoollico that the postmaster at that
point had boon opening the mail and con
ducting the private business of the oilico
in the presence of strangora. Ho received
a commission to go down and inspect it.
After a stage drive of seventy-five milca
in the middle of December , ho arrived
at the oilico about dusk ono evening. Ho
9tepppd from the stage , saw the mail bag
taken oil by a man and carried into the
itoro , back around the counter , and pant
i long row of boxes into a rear room of
the house. He followed on behind the
nan , ho says , entered the rear room , nnd
look up n position near the stove in front
) f the counter.
The following conversation then en-
lucd :
"Beg your pardon , stranger , but I'm
ibout to open the mail. "
"Woll , go on ; that's light , I suppose
ho people here are waiting to get their
ottora.i'
"But tt'a against the postallico rulca
ml regulations for a stranger to bo prcs-
int where the mniln are opnncd. "
"Oh , d n the poatotlice rules ; I'm
: old ; go on and open your mails ; I don't
/ant to steal anything. "
"But you must get out of here ! "
"You must bo getting particular. I've
lassod up and down the road hero before ,
, nd siw strangers dtanding around , while
on opnncd the mail. If they can stay in
lero 1 guess 1 can , "
"Aro you going to got out ? "
"No , sir : I'm going to utay right
icrt' . "
' Well , you're n pretty big man and
'm n small ono. but d n mo if you
inven't got to got out of hero. "
With that ho pooled ell' nis coat and
limped ever the counter. Gen , Edgar-
on saw ho meant business , BU ho cried :
"Hold on , there , 1'vo something for
oa. "
And with that ho wont into his pock-
it nnd produced his commission. The
lostmnator rend It slowly aaid ;
"Why in the devil didn't you say so.
'vo hoard of you for some time , and I'm
I d glad to meet you ; but what is your
ittlo racket/ / "
( icn. Kdgarton then explained the
ihargos that had boon preferred against
lim , which the po.itmaster characterised
in lirs and which were subsequently
liEcovored to have been fabricated
limply to have the oilico removed across
; ho street to another man's store.
