A Circus Stcptt'H 1'ntlictlo Death.
The emotional llfo of the horse Is re
markable. There are instances on rec
ord where the death of Iho horse has
been traced directly to Rrlof. Ono In-
Btnnco Is called to mind which occurred
moro than twenty years ago , soya the
Western Sportsman. A circus had boon
performing in the little town of Union-
vlllo , Pa. , when ono of the trained
horses sprained ono of his logs so that
ho could not travel. Ho was talc on to
the hotel anil put In a box stall. The
log was bandaged and ho was made as
comfortable us possible , tlo ate his
food and was apparently contented until
about midnight , when the circus began
moving out of town. Than lie became
rostlossand tramped and whined. As the
caravan moved punt the hotel ho scorned
to roalixo that ho was bolng deserted ,
and his anxloty and distress boctimo
pitiful. IIo would stand with his cars
pricked in an attitude Of intense listen
ing , und then as his cars caught the
sounds of the retiring wagons ho would
rush as best ho could with his lu-
jurod leg from ono side of the
stall to the other , pushing at the
door with his nose and making
every effort to oscapo. The stableman ,
Who was a stranger to him , tried to
seethe him , but to no purpose. Ho
would not bo comforted. Long after all
the sounds of the clrcur hud coitsod his
agitation continued. The sweat poured
from him In streams and ho quivered In
every part of his body. Finally the
stableman went to the house , woke up
Iho proprietor , nnil told himhoboliovcd
the norse would die If bomo of the cir
cus horses were not brought back to
keep him company. At noout daylight
the proprietor mounted a horbo and
rode after the circus. Ho overtook it
ten or twelve miles away , and the
groom who had charge of the injured
horse returned with him. When they
reached the stable the horse was dead'
The stableman said that ho remained
for nearly an hour perfectly still , and
with every bonso apparently strained to
the utmost tension , and then , without
making a bijr.ii , foil and died with
scarcely a struggle.
Yesterday there wns considerable ox-
cltoinont occasioned by the suicide of
ono of a pair of little monkeys in J. II.
Daniels' store in tlio Kimball house
block , pays the Chattanooga Times.
Somebody had dropped a picco-of hemp
rope ubcd in tying the bananas , and it
fell within reach of the little inilimil.
He was in dead earnest , and when ho
poked his head into the noose and
lumped oilho was as completely
hanged as any man that over tried to
take his own life. His companion
would p' ' . . open the eyelids of the
dead nion ! : * y and look into his sightless
eyes in the most pathotlc nianrur. She
Boomed porfuctly desolate and realized
that her companion was dying. A little
boy was lifted over the transom and the
dead monkey was cut down , but it wts
too late. Ho was cold ana still' . Sergeant -
goant Moss brought the piece of rope to
the station house and will preserve it as
a memento.
_
Dr. W. II. Shoemaker , talented and
leading physician of this city , says a
Birmingham , Ala. dispatch has boon
declared insuno , owing to having be
come a victim of the cocoaino habit. Ho
became violent this morning , and
to-night was sent to the state in
sane asylum utTuscaloosu. While under
'
tlio inll'uonce of the drug ho , in Decem
ber last , performed upon himself prob-
ahly the most unique and most remarkable -
able surgical operation ever recorded.
Ho had been a Kulleror for some time
from a tumor on his liver. Ono night ,
while alone , ho took his surgical in
struments and deliberately cut into the
abdominal cavity , cut the tumor from
his liver , sowed the incision up , showed
the cut and tumor next morning to
brother physicians , and has since en
tirely recovered. His use of cocaine
previous to this operation hud become
habitual.
A light between a turkey hen and a
rattlesnake is probably a very strange
contest ' and something- suppose very
fow'ovor saw , says the Talmago Trib
une ; yet such a battle was witnessed ono
day last week by Mr , A. Edmlston on
his farm several miles southeast of
I * town. Among the fowl possessions of
this gentleman Is a brooding turkey
lion with a nest of twenty eggs in a
voung hedge not far from the house.
While riding along the fence ono morn
ing , ho noticed the hen leave her nest
and act as though she was lighting
something. Hiding near lie found she
had attacked u rattlesnake which she
evidently feared would rob her nest.
She would make a charge on the rep
tile and pock at it. while the snake
would coil and strike back. After
striking , the hen would sometimes
grab it back of the head , shako and
tlirow it quite a distance. Once she
tjirow it over her back nearly a rod bo-
hn d hor. Fot'ring that "tho snake
might bite the hen , Air. F.dmiston has
tily tied his horbo and started to take
a hand in the battle , but before ho
reached | hem the snake struck the hen ,
biting her on the side of the head at
the edge of the llosh and bill. The hen
before so courageous , now sooiuod to
loose all courage , for she commenced to
run backwards , dragging Clio snake a
short distance. After she ofacapod from
italic dropped her head and sneaked off
to her uoat. Quickly dispatching the
snake ho llxcd u salt and soda poultice ,
and bound it on the wound. The snake
was over two and a half foot long and a
very largo ono. As to the hen , she
eho showed no bad olloets from the bite.
P. I , Maybury has returned from n
three month's trip in the south. Ho
has a pair of canary birds , which have
mated at his house for a long time. The
female bird has laid eggs quite often ,
but before they wore hatched she has
invariably pocked the in open with her
bill. Last Sunday morning , says the
Grand Rapids Democrat , his little girl
came running to him and said that
"Pete" ( incatilnir the male bird ) was
laying an egg. Ho thought she meant
the female , of course , and hardly no
ticed what she said , but shortly
after he happened to bo passing
the cage , when ho was sur
prjsod to BOO "Pete" actually laying an
oKg. The bird seemed in great agony
Mr. Mnybury chloroformed him und he
died shortly afterwards. "Pete's" bodj
wns cut open and it was found that ho
had actually dlod in his effort to lay the
og T. The shell was not hard , but the
egg was otherwise porfoot. Mr. May-
bury says that ho will vouch for the fact
that the bird was a male , because it has
alwilys been Its mate that has laid the
eggs , and ho other birds excepting thcso
, wo have boon In the cage , lib says ho
i as hoard of roosters achieving such a
'cat ' but "rooster" .
, n canary novor.
Fat hns Its value , and hero Is an in
stance duly recorded in the municipal
reports of 'the city of Dover , says the
Liverpool Courier :
On December 14,1810 , n pig was bur
ied in its sty through the fall of part of
the clliT under Dover castle. The sky
consisted of a cave In the rock about
six ( cot squaronnd boarded in the front ,
and when the accident happened the
pig was In Rood condition , weighing
about one hundred und slxty-llvo
pounds ) . Tlvo months afterward , on
May 2.'t. 1811 , some workmen who wore
engaged in clearing away the debris of
iho fallun cliflf mentioned to Dr. Man-
toll , a woll-known geologist of the day
and n fellow of the Llnnamn society ,
that they were sure they heard the pig
whining.
Ho thought the statement incredible ,
but ordered them to clear away the
oliulk as fast as they could , and sure
enough , when they got to the sty , the
pig was there , weak and emaciated ,
fallen to only a fourth of his former
weight , but alive. In 100 days ho had
boon strictly self-supporting , living on
the stores of fatho had laid up in moro
prosperous times. There woro. how
ever , evidences of his sutTcrings In the
wood that shut in the sty , being nibbled
away In places , while ho had licked the
sides of the cave smooth in his attempt
to obtain the moisture exuding from
the rock.
John Thompson , of Kentucky , one of
the Ilarrodsburg twins , told mo another
story yesterday about tlio mixing up of
his identity with that of his brother
Phil , says a writer in the Now York
Graphic. Ito told mo ho was sitting in
the barber's chair , just oil the house of
representatives ono day , when Con
gressman Murphy of Iowa , came along
and stood beside him. "Phil , " said ho ,
"I want you to tell mo how the bill is
getting on ! " ' "Of course I know ho
meant Phil's whisky bill , " said John ,
"and 1 told him it was getting on pretty
well , bull wished ho would drive up a
few votes for it. " I know ho carried a
few hayseed members about with him ,
and I supposed ho could swing them
Into any lino. "Well1 said Murphy ,
"I will do what I can for you , but you
know it will bo worth something.
There's my Honneplu canal bill. It
needs a fut of boosting. So if you
scratch my back I'll scratch yours. " ' 'I
told him. of course , that that would be
all right. Uo wont away happy , and
when Phil's bill came up Murphy's
friends were all on the right side , but
when Murphy's bill came along , even
Phil himself voted against it , for ho
never know a word about the deal , " '
said John , "I forgot to toll him any
thing about it. "
The ancient Japanese custom of hari-
knri , or haiipy dispatch , has received
Its death-blow. For centuries it has
been usual for any exalted Japanese dig
nitary who may have mortally oltonded
his sovereign to receive a polite olliclal
intimation to Iho ell'cct that his tuicido
will bo pleasing to the authorities , and
until recently it has boon the unvary
ing practice for the offender to acqui
esce resignedly , and , after summoning
hia relatives around him , to formally
disembowel himself in their presence.
If the culprit Happened to 'ie ' of excep
tionally Inch rank the sovereign would ,
as a mark of honor , send him a jeweled
sword with which to operate upon him
self. But all these things are now of
the past. Not long ago the mikado
was grievously hurt by the words
and conduct of a high court olll-
clal. The man was an old and
very valued servant of the crown ; but
his crime was unpardonable. Next day ,
therefore , an ollicor brought him the
fatal sword , a magnificent weapon , with
a blade inlaid with gold and a handle
incrusted with diamonds , together with
a sympathetic intimation that his early
death would be regarded us a bonolit to
the empire in general and to the mikado
in particular. The culprit received the
sword with all proper respect , but as
soon as the emissary had departed the
wily Japanese in whose mind Euro
pean habits of thought have evidently
taken a firm root walked down to the
quay , went on board a small steamer
that was bound for Havre , and upon
reaching Paris incontinently sold his
sword of honor for 6,000
Atiturgcon measuring over five feet
in length and weighing 283 pounds was
on exhibition yesterday at a store in
Washington avenue , Newark , N. J. ,
says the Now York Star.
The big fish was captured yesterday
on the Passaic river , at Belleville , by
William Gerow , Andrew yoiglor and
William Hudson , all of Belleville. They
were out in a boat fishing when they
noticed an unusual commotion in the
water some distance below the bridge.
On rowing nearer they discovered the
stvrgcon , and after an exciting chneo
managed to harpoon and capture the
monntor.
When Gorow drove the harpoon , the
line , of which was fastened to the boat ,
into the sturgeon's back , the big llsh
started to swim away at a rapid rate ,
carrying the boat with it. The three
men were lying in the bottom
of the boat , and the latter , goIng -
Ing up the river propelled apparently
by no visible means , attracted the at
tention of Andrew Soharfensbory , who
was out on tlio river in his boat. Whllo
Soharfonsberg was waiting for the curi
ous boat to unproaoh , the latter collided
with hifa boat and upset. Scharfons-
berg's boat was overturned , and when
the four men came to the surface they
seized the boat to which the sturgeon
was attached , when the big fish contin
ued on Its course , dragging the over
turned boat and the four men with It.
The boat was finally righted and the
sturgeon , becoming exhausted from
loss of blood , was easily captured and
dragged ashore.
The Duration o ( ' Narva Life.
It has been estimated that wo got a
complete now outllt of brains about
every two months , says the Medical
World. The duration of a nerve's
life Is about sixty days. Each
nerve cell has Its own inde
pendent functions , subordinate to
the higher functions of tlio whole
brain "on masse , " and the latter
acts as a sort of boss or overseer to tiio
individual actions and life of each sepa
rate coll. Every cell is destroyed and
renewed every two months , so wo each
get six brand now brains per yoar.
"MAGGIE JUDAH. "
The Hnmbto Origin of Ono of Paul's
Favorite Songs.
There lived in the yotir 18GO in Span
ish Town , Jamaica , West India , a col
ored woman named Maggie Judith , says
the Pall Mall Gazette. She was what
wns called a Jew bastard that Is across
between a Jew and a brown woman. She
wns then about thirty-five years old ,
rather stout , with good Jewish features.
She sold ginger boor and cakes ; she
wns evidently not a "Crcsar's wife. "
About that tlmo there lived a clover
black boy , Alexander Archpolo by name ,
a gentleman's groom , who nmoiig other
accomplishments had a very good voice.
Ono evening Mr. Alexander Archpolo
wont to Maggie Judith's cake stall , and ,
in the presence of an admiring audi
ence , in a loud voice serenaded the said
lady by singing "Maggie Judnh. " Miss
Jituah , not at all complimented , took
legal proceedings against Mr. Archpolo ,
and the cnso was tried in the police
court before the Hon. Richard Hill ,
since dead , the well-known naturalist
and friend of the late Mr. P. Gosso.
Archpolo's defense was that the song
was a popular ono , which was sung
about the streets. Miss Judith's lawyer ,
however , was not to bo humbugged. Uo
contended that the song was not a docent -
cent one , nml that it referred to Mag
gie Judah in a wny derogatory to her
character. The magistrate thereupon
requested Mr , Archpolo to sing the
song for his guidance. Mr. Archpolo
then wont up into the witness box and
in a clear , musical voice sang "Mnggio
Judah. " Of course the whole court
house was convulsed , mid it wns some
time before order was restored. This ,
however , did not help Mr. Archpolo ,
who was lined ton shillings und cost , or
twenty days in the district prison. The
fine was paid und Mr. Alexander Arch-
polo lived for several years after , and ,
although ho did not again serenade
Maggie Judah , ho nevertheless used to
sing the song to Ids horses while rub
bing them down. Maggie Judah has
since passed away , but there are many
people who still recollect her , and the
song which caused so much amusement
in the Spanish town police court.

A young English blood of San Fran
cisco has for a year past boon badly en
amored of a young lady of prominent
family , who.aftor attending a Situ Fran
cisco school , was sent to a leading edu
cational institution in Los Angelos.
The girl liked her admirer very well ,
but not quite enough to venture on the
uncertain sea of matrimony with him.
The behests of love , however , sharpen
n lover's wits.
Last Wednesday the voung lady , ac
companied by her ardent friend and
several intimates , visited the Baldwin
theater , after which supper followed.
The wily lover shortly proposed as a
joke that they bo married by ono of the
party. The unsuspicious young girl
consented and the formula was gone
through. The next morning the as
tounded girl received n letter from her
Englishman that they wore tied hard
and fast , the officiating friend , a young
attorney ot good standing , being a jus
tice of the peace.
She at once told her family about the
affair. Prominent attorneys were con
sulted , dozens of telegrams and pages
of correspondence were interchanged ,
with the result that an opinion wiis ren
dered that it would inko a judicial de
cree to sevsr the bond. The girl's fam
ily are greatly excited over thoincidcnt
and propose to enter court , when names
will bo made public.

the possession of the HUjirnmo medicinal de

Tn ttiis departmeni wo are especitviiy auccossrui. Our claims or superiority over
: ill others are based upon the fact that this is the only medical establishment man
ufacturing surgical braces and appliances for each individual case. AVe have
throe skilled instrument makers in our employ , with improved machinery , and
have all the latest inventions , as well as our own patents and improvements ,
the result of twenty years' experience.
The treatment of diseases by electricity 1ms undergone great changes within tlio
past few yeara , and electricity isnow acknowledged by all schools of medicine as the
great remedy in all chronic , special and nerve diseases , for nervous debility , par
alysis , rheumatism , diseases of women , etc , , and in many eye and car diseases it
is the most valuable of all remedies.
In order to obtain its full virtues , it is absolutely necessary to have the proper
apparatus. Wo have lately purchased three of the largest and most complete
batteries manufactured , so constructed as to give tlio most gentle as well us the
most powerful current. Persons treated at this Institute by electricity recognize
at once tlio difference between our expensive and complete electrical apparatus
and the common , cheap batteries , in use by many physicians. Over 8,000 dollars
invested in electrical apparatus. t
PRIVATE : , SPECIAL , NERVOUS A&ID
BLOOD DISEASES.
Wo claim to bo the only reliable , responsible establishment in the west milking
a specialty of this class of diseases. Dr. McMoiiamy was ono Jf the first thorough
ly educated physicians to make a special study of this class of diseases , and Ills
methods and inventions have been adopted by specialists in Europe and America.
He is tlio Inventor of the Clamp Compress Suspensory , acknowledged the best in
use. All others are copied after his invention. By means of a simple operation ,
painless and safe , recently brought into use , we cure many cases that have been
given " up as incurable by medical treatment. ( Head our booh to men , sent fret to any
uddreas. ' )
