He promised to pay the rest to-day , but she de manded it Instantcr In the vilest and most insulting language she could command. She next sent for Pete Walker , who , without giving Brown any chance for un explana tion , commenced u murderous assault upon him , beating him into Insensibility with beet bottles and cutting his head and face in n frightful manner.

The directors of the fair association are still busily engaged figuring up their losses. Before the exact figures can be ar rived ut they must get the plans and specifi cations of the floral hall , and as the architect who Jruw them Is absent from the city , it will bo some days before the real loss is as certained. However , enough has been learned to show that the full sum cannot fall much balow $1 ,000. Some of the fair olllcials have been in consultation with the authorities of the Missouri Puclflc milroad , and it is a , cer tainty that if matters cannot be satisfactorily adjusted by arbitration , that n big damage suit will boon. The fair association has not been lillo and has such testimony accumu lated as seems to conclusively point to the oiigin of the flio. A limiting Mill.

No mathematics yet invented could enumerate the hosts that have HO far appeared. Instantaneous photograph1 is the only method by which any truth ful representation can bo given of thoii hosts. Wo rode out , a day or twosineo , to liio lake ( Wamhuska. sometimes called Stump luko. ) The day was one of the mellow , golden , bracing , thor oughly enjoyable days that Octobci sometimes brings oven to you pooi dwellers amid the mists nnd damps ol Indiana , but to us ho ia lavish ol sucl treasures during hov entire roign.

Albuquerque Ciltacn : About two years ago a IKKH ; . unfortunate named Foley died In thiq'pjly. Ho was without money or friends-niid his death hardly created a ripple in the ovory-day cur rent of local lifo. His body was em balmed by old man Morrison , who was conducting an undertaking shop in the city at the time. No ono appeared to claim Foloy's cadaver , nnd , tiio county refusing to pay the expense of em balming nnd burial , Morrison kept the body , and it turned to n beauti ful mahogany color , and bade fair to last forever. When Morrison moved to El Paso ho took the relic of Foley along as ono of Iho household wares and ponatos. Not mooting with success at El Paso , the embalmer moved on west ward to San Diego , taking Foley along. At the latter place a bright thought penetrated Morrison's brain , no less a ono than exhibiting Foloy'a body as a "Mexican mummy , dug from one of the sacred mounds of the Aztecs , and of un known antiquity ; admission 10 cents. " The result is that Foley is visited by thousands and Morrison is coining money. A AVomnii'B Dispatch. St. Paul Globe : "I want to send n mes sage in a great harry.

Bill Nye is' genial to news paper men , but MarkTwain refuses oven to see a reporter. Nye is very dandy lied in his dress , and in that resect the nrtist does him nn _ injustice. The writer hereof saw Nye in Major J. 13. Pond's ollleo recently , getting in harness to go on the road lecturing. Ho wore a slouch hat , navy blue , to match his suit. His head was so sleek that if a lly lit on it it would slip like a man who has troaden on a banana peel. His face is a jocose continuation of his billiard ball cranium , and when in repose it has no humorous lines , noradiantangles and no Hogarth- ian earmarks of genius.

Ho fainted when ho saw it and is now in a very weak condition , but out of danger. The eel is sixteen inches long and a perfect lish with the exception of the eyes , which are wanting. The mouth is very long und shaped like that ol a sucker fish. Last December ritoinoi' , who is a wood-carver , thirty- one years old , drew u pail of water from the city hydrant on Lemon street , near his house , and drank a glassful. In swallowing ho felt u lump about the sio of a hazelnut pass down his throat. Two months later ho began to suffer the mast terrible cramps andstomnch pains , which have continued until to-day. Dr. John Hotel and his son , Micluul , treated Steiner successfully for neural gia of the heart , gastritis , dyspepsia and tapeworm , administering morpheno when the pain was severest. A week nge the strongest emetic failed tooffec't. Steiner became convinced that ho had a tapeworm , and by the advice of his motiier-in-law , bought a , quart of whisky yesterday and went to bed drunk. Thin noon when ho arose ho was in terrible agony , and about 2 o'clock the eel appeared from his mouth head first. The fish did not lacerate his throat. It was in a stupid condition when placed in water , but soon wiggled around and lived four hours. Furs this winter willitoa worn only in the shape of mufts and bous.
