There is a full Hedged spanking ma
chine } n practical operation at the
Pierce street school. The instrument
of torture is put together on n plan en
tirely antagonistic to youthful comfort ,
and is called into daily requisition to
correct the wild tendencies of irrepres
sible youngsters. The victim is put into
the machine , which holds him in a vice-
like grip , and a fan , working automat
ically , proceeds to instill the funda
mental principles of propriety into the
unwilling subject. It is taid to work
very effectively , and is a great improve
ment over the "good old way" ( V ) of
spanking by hand.

Who Struck Sweeney ?
For some time past there lias been bad
blood between Alderman Pat Lacy and
Pat Sweeney , the well known grading
contractor. The trouble grew out of
political matters. Sweeney states that
last spring ho supported Nick O'Brien
for marshal , which displeased Lacy ,
who throtoncd to got oven with him if
he did not use his influence as Lacy
directed. Sweeney refused , and since
then the trouble has boon browing.
Swconcy states that as he was passing
"Tho Turf" Thursday evening Lacy
was standing in the door ana. struck
him on the head with a cane as ho went
by.
Sweeney was considerably staggered
by the blow , but dared Lacy to "come Out
of his hole and fight it out , " but the
doughty alderman skipped for the in
side. Sweeney carries his hetid in a
sling ns the result of the blow , which
made the claret fly in all directions. IIo
will not take any legal steps in the mat
ter , but will "do all the court business
himself , " as soon as ho can run across
his assailant on the street. lie is very
indignant over Lacy's cowardly assault , ,
and proposes to got oven. Lacy denies
the whole story and says if any ono
struck Sweeney it must have boon some
other man.

Honesty Pays nt Cards.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch : I took my
paper and tried to read , but I lost all in
terest in reading , and drew my chair
close to the tnble to watch the game. I
looked on for a while , and became per
fectly disgusted with the players to
think what chumps they wore- Why ,
they didn't know how to play. Here
wa another evidence of my luck. If
I hadn't sworn oil I might have won a
couple ol hundred dollars. I watched
their gumo so long that I thought I
would risk $ " > ( ) , and if I lost J would quit
and , well $51) ) more or less for expenses
wouldn't cut much of n figure. So I
wont to the captain and bought $ - " > 0
worth of "corn. " They used corn in
these days , having no chips , as wo do
now. I started in to play , arid after
while- lost all the corn I had. It was
not my bad playing , but simply hard
luck. I thought I couldn't always lese ,
so Invested $100 moro In corn , and to
miiko a long story short , lost that.
After losing $150 1 became desperate
ami played with great recklessness. I
invested the balance of ray mondy in
Corn , and had lost all but tlvo or ton
grains , which I had in my coat pocket ,
when the boat whistled for a landing ,
The first mate , arose and sail :
"Gentlemen , I am very sorry , but wo
have to take on some wood at this sta
tion and my services are needed. You
gentlemen can continue the gnmo or
wait till wo get under steam again , and
I will join you. "
After awhile wo agreed to wait for the
mate. I thought 1 would taUo n strojl
on deck and got some fresh air. I
walked down the gangplank and whore
the boat had landed there was a great
largo house. I could not tell what kind
of a house St wasas , the night WHS pitch
dark. I Walked up' to it and foil that
tharo wore holes in the side , rind ima'g-
ino my surprise when I found it con
tained corn. I had accidentally'run
ucroRs a corn crib. 1 was not of. a thiev
ish disposition , but I thought if I took
an oar of corn and won , why I would
pluco in my pocket what I had taken
nid ) only cuxii what I had' really won ;
but on the othqr hand'if I lost well , it
was like a drowning man catching at a
straw. So J. took the car of corn and
placed ft in'my pocket and commenced
sholhng it. . In the course of half an
hour tl)0 ) boat'started down tlio river
and wo resumed the game.From the
start I commenced winning. Everything
I drew to I got. 1 won pot .afterpot.
About 3 o'clock no iu , someone proposed
that wo have a fwVpot : and quit for the

Feeding a Horse Llk.q n Child.
A pure white Arabian mare that is
being fud with a spoon is one of the
curiosities that excites the interest and
sympathies of tlio horsemen of Mont
gomery county , says the Philadelphia
Uccora. The' animal belongs to Joliu
M. Wilson , of Norristown , and issulTcr-
ing from a most singular fracture of
the jawbone. The injury is known as
a fracture of the inferior maxilla of the
lower jawbone posterior in the incisor
teeth. Both bones of the animal's jaw
are broken completely oil , and the
lower portion of the jaw is now being
held it ) plneo by a mask of pliublo cop-
pel' lined witli cotton. The case is ex
citing widespread interest among vet
orinnry surgeons.
Tlio accident to the animal occurred
last Sunday night. While tied with a
baiter in its stall at Mr. Wilson's stable
it broke loose and , while mingling with
the oilier horses , was kicked squarely
on. the front of the jaw. Dr. H. O.
Denglqr , a veterinary surgeon in Nor
ristown , was summoned and ho found
that the jaw was twitted to one side and
that the animal appeared to bo stitier
ing but little pain. After an examina
tion of the fracture ho reset the bones
temporarily and applied a truss to tlio
mare's head and then bandaged it
tightly.
On Monday Dr. Dcnglor telegraphed
to C. J. Blank , of Easton , and J. Uein-
hart S. Kcelor , of Harleysvijlc , Mont
gomery county , two veterinary bur
geons , with whom ho held a consulta
tion. They made an exhaustive search
of the archives of animal fractures but
could not find a similar case to the one
they had under discussion , where both
bones of the jaw had been broken at the
dame time. Dr. Dcngler then perma
nently set the broken jaw , an entire
day being spent in the operation. The
copper mask is kept tightly pressed to
the animal's hcadi and its mouth is
kept in a bucket of cold water to reduce
the swelling in the jaw.
The mare is kept in slings , which are
securely attached to the roof of the
btablo. so as to guard against her lying
down to go to sleep. The cnnvn& slings
will bo kept about her body for about
four weeks , by which time Dr. Dcnglor
anticipates a marked improvement in
the fracture.
During that time pt will bo impossible
for the animal to" take ordinary nour
ishment , and she will be kept on a diet
of milk , Oggs , < oatmeal , butter and
gruel. c > . .c
The diet will "administered with a
spoon , as the mouth is open but a little
more than an inch. The animal is in a
comfortable condition , and it is believed
that by careful nursing and skillful sur
gical treatment it will recover.
Htrcct-Car Motors.
President John Scullin , or the Union
depot and other lines of St. Louis says
the Globe-Democrat , was added to the
lifet of returning street car presidents
who had boon in the east attending the
convention and investigating the work
ing of now motors , Mr. Sculliii's inves
tigation was very thorough and cov
ered a crcat deal of territory. Ho has
been ono of tlio most persevering of all
managers in endeavoring to bocuro an
economicod and satisfactory electric mo
tor and fools the failure to do bO very
deeply , It will bo remembered that
Mr. Scullin last spring gave the Wliar-
ton company an order for a car with
storage battery and motor , to cost about
$ o,000 , and to 'bo delivered before the
democratic national convention , in or
der that it might bo given a practical
test while the season was good ami the
'
city crowded with visitors' . The deliv
ery was delayed from time to time , until
a few weeks ago Mr. Wharton con
sented to allow the motor to leave his
shops. The winter season then approaching
preaching , Mr. Scullin declined to take
the car. Mr. Wharton ngrOod with
him that it Would not bo a fair test , and
preferred to hold the car uutil spring ,
by which time ho will have completed
another storage battery , on which he is
now working.
The general fooling among the rail
way managers is that the ijtonigo bat
tery can not bo used economically. . Tlio
longest and best test given it in this
country has boon on the Washington
ayonuo line , and it has been watched
with a great deal of interest all over
the country. It is now recogni/.ed as a
mechanical success , but its economical
opcratioa is n6t assured , Another good
tef't was made on the Fifth avenue line
in Now York. Ton additional cars were
ordered for it last spring , but the fact
that only the original car was found in
operation , disheartened the wcbtorn
managers very much. The trouble is in
the durability of the storage battery.
The first oilcs used cost in the neighbor
hood of $1500 , while the cost has now
boon cheapened about ono-half , but they
are not so good , und durability seems
to bo a greater problem than before.
The local interests are now looking
forward to the opoKition of the over
head wire. Tlio experimental line now
being constructed on the southern end
of the Broadway line will , it is ex
pected , bo in operation within two
months , or , probably , six weeks. .Tho
Richmond , Va. , line is working satis
factorily. The W.est End Consolidated
Company , the biggest in the United
States , having over1 200 miles of track ,
is npw equipping ono of its lines at an
oxpoiibo of nearly i$300,000 , and will
have it in opciat on by January J.
These lines all have gas pipes on the
curbs and arches .across the street , the
pipe being about the fiamo as is used in
the St. Louis striiQt illuminations. In
Washington , D. C" . , a line is in success
ful operation on an nsphultum street ,
with the gas-nipo in the center with ,
arms reaching out to the center of each
track. .
When asked about the cable system ,
Mr. Scullin rfipllod :
"There Is no doubt a& to the cable
bfjiug all right , but its construction is
too expensive. Still wo may all bo
