Marshall, a tiv^t The parties went to le to light, bat the difficulty wa<| |!here by Gen. William O. Butler. Fending the settlement of the affair, the police pat in an appearance for the purpose of arresting the com­ batants. "I'm looking for Mr. Marshall, sore," said the Irish captain as he entered Mr. Marshall's room at the hotel, "and I believe the mon is before me." > Mr. Marshall divined at once the purpose of this visit, and assuming an air of indifference, coolly inquired: "What one of the Marslialls do you de­ sire to see? There are two of as here." "The ope who is to fight the jewel, sure," replied the policeman. "Ah! I understand. You should see my brother. He is in the room at the other end of the hall." "But is he the Mister Marshal that's a lawyer?" inquired the skeptical cap­ tain. "He will probably tell you that he's a minister. But don't let him fool you. Lawyers, you know, can quote texts as well as preachers." The policeman politely thanked him for his assistance, bowed himself out of the room and passed on to the room of the . Rev. Samuel Marshall, ati elder brother and a prominent divine of Kentucky. In vain did the minister expostulate. "Your text don't apply," said the plucky Irishman. "You're me mon, sure now! You're no more of a preacher than I am meself," and the fellow1 was hurrying him down the stair­ way when they met a mutual friend who explained to the policeman that he was badly "sold." Meanwhile Joseph Marshall had moved to parts unknown, and thus avoided the humiliation of go­ ing to the mayor's court. Joseph Falmieri, an Italian who opened a barber's shop here during Tyler's administration, was one of the old school gossiping knights of the razor. He had considerable taste for and some knowledge of music and the other fine arts, and, one in his position, was somewhat conversant with Italian literature. In the fitting up, decoration, and management of his rooms, his taste was unrivalled; the only trouble being that he was too "regardless of expense." As an operator he was superb; under his hands shaving was a positive luxury, especially if the "subject" was one whom he liked, or who would talk with him about pictures or the opera. He always commanded an abundant share of custom, but, unluckily, he was al­ ways under pecuniary embarrassment, which forced him to shift about from place to place, whereas, if he could have remained in any one spot, and managed his business with prudence, he could scarcely have failed to secure a liberal income. His personal appear­ ance was handsome and imposing. His features were regular, the eye a bright hazel, the complexion of the clear Italian olive, and the whole admirably completed by a magnificent coal-black beard. He finally died of yellow fever at New Orleans, in 1847. Baron tie Bodiseo. the Russian Minister, gave a christening ball for his baby boy on Thursday evening, Jan. 6, 1882, at his house in Georgetown, which enabled the hackmen to reap a harvest, their fare for the night being $5 a head. The outside of the house was brilliantly illuminated by torches, and by eight o'clock the guests began w\ arrive. Besides two long corridors, extending the whole length of the house, there were six public rooms for the reception of guests, in addition to the. numerous chambers, alcoves, and by-places, suitable for an agreeable tete-a-tete, or for any like purpose, from an argument in law to an innocent flirtation, those contributing to the pleasurers and amusements of the even­ ing. The happy husband was as sprightly as a lark, and alternately from the attic to the larder, and dis­ pensing favors to all who came. But the father and mother were, of right, no more than the agents of public favor. A hearty, chubby, healthy boy, with bright eyes and fair locks, borne in the arms of his nurse for an hour or so in the earlier part of the evening, was the object of attraction and admiration. He was a noble fellow, indeed, but eight months old, quick, observing and active., The multitude, as in duty bound, complimented the child as the fairest and best-natured, promising and healthiest, they had ever seen. "Alex­ ander Nicholas," the child, but the other day was christened, and being christ­ ened, he appeared with all the bon­ homie of his father to give welcome to the crowd: The rooms were brilliantly illuminated upon the occasion by beautiful glass chandeliers hanging from the center, and by astral and other lamps hanging about the room. The two large rooms upon the first floor were occupied for dancing, a band of music being packed conveniently away in one corner of the principal room, where they discoursed the gay music of- the waltz and the quadrille. In one of the large rooms on the lower floor M. de Bodiseo formally .re­ ceived the guests, and in the other they paid their respects to his accomplished wife. All were introduced, but with no such formality as made the intro­ duction all embarrassing or pro­ tracted. It was to be presented, to bow, to smile, to say a word, and then away to make room for another crowd. The Russian Minister was dressed in his full court dress, and with all the stars and insignia of his office and of all the honors he had acquired. His lady was dressed with the greatest neatness and elegance. There were diamonds enough to freight an East Indiaman, b*t. nothing extravagant or intended for mere effect. Mr. Russell, the war correspondent, was d good storv teller, and had many r«mini>cences of'bis adventures in the East, Once, while traveling in India, he carried with him an India-rubber pillow, which at night he inflated. One evening he took it out of his pocket and showed it to a chief, who asked him its use. He told him it was a pillow. "No good, log of wood much better." "Why ?" asked Mr. Russell. "Because, it is flat,'*replied the chief. Mr. Rus­ sell then iviflatcd it, and it was handed around to the family, who, in turns, let out the air and again inflated it. At last the cheif took it. "It is good," said he, very, very good." "Why?" asked Mr. Russell. "Because by and by you will be an old man, will have but a little breath in you, you can get some out of this bag." % ifienwas Outwit!

The Dying Chieftain. Warriors, you are listening for the last time to the voice of your chieftain, the once great and mighty Buffalo Horn, whose heart is now being chilled by the wintry winds of old age. Hearken well unto his words, else even now he will arise and on you "put a head." Ere yonder moon sinks to rest be­ hind the tops of the distant trees, his spirit with those of liis forefathers will be chasing the bison across the boundless plains, or trailing the stump-tailed buck -through the trackless forests of the Happy Hunting Grounds. My people, before the white man set foot on our shores, what were we? Simple chil­ dren of the forest, pure and gtxileless as the running waters of a silvery stream. Our sotigs were as sweet and low as the gentle winds that sigh among the pines. Our poetry was drawn from the spring of nature's in­ spiration, while the mountains, rivers, and lakes were the subject of our song and story. The dews that glisten in the rays of morning sunlight are not brighter than were the eyes of the dusky maiden who won the heart of the simple, untutored savage some two cen­ turies agone. Our spirits were as light and gay as those of the bounding deer when he showed his heels to the mangy ill-bred hound of the pale face. My children, what are we now ? A fallen race--our systems soaked with gin and sorrow. Our council fires blaze no more upon the hills, while our tom­ ahawks, and hopes as well, are buried deep in the dark and silent waters of the past. We steal forth no more to peel the heads of our sleeping foes even as we peel the sausage fend banana of the pale face. Our race is run, like that of the dog and cat who long since passed through the sausage mill! It pains me to notice to what depths of degradation we have fallen. Our fathers drank of the cooling waters of limpid springs, while we, my children, guzzle but those waters that grasp our gullets as in the clutch of death. At such times our brains get in a whirl, we raise the d 1 at the reservation because we can't have pie instead of l>ork for dinner, and what is the result ? We are corked up tightly in the reser­ vation "jug." The slumbers of our fathers were dis­ turbed not by the howling of the wolf nor the yelping of the coyote; while ours is anything but the sleep of inno­ cence and peace. When we lie down upon our pillows of Philadelphia brick, phantoms of the past dance be­ fore our eyes, and our dreams are bro­ ken by the boastful voices of the reser­ vation roosters, as we turn oVer in our sleep and smash the pesky bedbug of enlightened modern times. Our stomachs are badly out of order, and our livers need winding up as reg­ ularly as an eiylit-daj clock. Why is this, my children? Because of the bad food and whisky furnished by the pale- faced chiefs at Washington. "This" was not "thus" two hundred years ago. f Oui fathers dressed in the skins of the deer and bison that were slain upon the chase, and smoked in times of peace, the calumet, while we wear the old sol­ dier pants, stovepipe hat, and bedquilt that have been discarded by the white man, as useless or n. g. We cut a pretty- figure, don't we, as thus attired, and smoking an old clay pipe, we pose as scions of a great but fallen race. In the roaring winds and rushing waters we hear the voices of the Great Spirit and our fathers, sayipg: " My children, shame upon you--you do not do me proud." ' My children, heed well my words, I am done. That my spirit may quickly be with those of mv fathers, give me a piece of government pie.--Peck's Mil­ waukee Sun. A Good Man. "Nat," said the justice of the peace, "you are charged with, stealing a shirt." " 'Tain't true, boss." "I do not say that it is. The charge says that you stole the shirt, and it is my business to find out whether or not you did so." "Jedge, yer ain't been lettin' dese men fool wid yer, has yer ?" "That makes no difference. You are charged with stealing a shirt. Are you guilty or not?" "Jedge, dar's two sides ter eberv question; verse'f is er smart man an'--" "That makes no difference.

It is understood that the famous gems and jewels of France, which accumu­ lated during the reigns of its kings, are to be sold to provide funds for the care of aged workmen. In 18-41), there were 64,812 of these crown jewels, 9,547 of which were diamonds, 50G pearls, and then all other precious stones wero rep-' resented in proportion. It is supposed that these gems will bring 30,<X!0.000 francs, or $6,000,000. In this collec­ tion is the famous Regent diamond, which laid the foundation of the house of Wm. Pitt, who bought it in India for $60,000, and sold it for 3,.375,000 francs. To-day, it is said to be worth 16.000,000 francs, as the price of diamonds has risen since then. Dealers in precious stones report the finding of a new diamond field at Salobro, in Brazil. In a league of soil, the returns have been as high as from $35,000 to $50,000 per month in diamonds. The remarkable thing about this find is that the dia­ monds of Salobro excel those found in any other place in quality, purity of color, and water. The only defect is that none of them weigh more than twenty carats. There is always a lp.rge demand . for diamonds. -- Demoreaf8 Monthly: THE WOODEN TOOTHPICK. And lis Peculiar Relations to Xov«ljr Woman. The most potential idol breaker I know is the toothpick, especially the wooden toothpick--2,500 for 5 cents is the drug store rate. Now, abstractly considered, the tookpick is not a bad idea. It enables a certain numerous class to cut a considerable figure in the shadow of first-grade hotels. It is also a familiar property of the after-break­ fast horse car farce is that daily played by those who publicly clean their finger­ nails with their toothpicks and then clean away their teeth with them. The utilitarian may not always be politely bred, but lie is a prodigious economist and should therefore command our re­ spect. Dr. Samuel Johnson is remem­ bered chiefly for his great intellect, though I suppose it is very well settled that bis personal habits were perhaps as filthy as those of Socrate. In view of such history what may we not hope that time will bring to the man who gives his finger-nails precedence of his teeth in the oflice of the pick ? Our education has so far advanced that we are not unforgivably offended by men's manipulations of that essential little in­ strument; but good God! what shall I say of the woman who goes abroad chewing a toothpick of the 2,500-for-5 cents variety? She afflicts me far worse than the woman who h-h-o-i-i-ks and spits in public. You have not seen her, give your imagination a poke and see what an image you can conjure up. I would much rather hear a woman swear than see her sucking a toothpick; and I am pained to observe that the latter habit grows on her. I am also curious to know, just as a freak of nature, the man who can look at a tooth­ pick-sucking woman and ever again feel for her one touch of that exalted senti­ ment with which the chivalrous man is prohd to regard woman as an institu­ tion. Yesterday I was crossing a crowded promenade. Ahead of me was a dainty female figure attired in the jauntiest of costumes, Her skirts were coquettishly raised in very proper horror of the mud that covered the crossing, aiM her exquisitly shod feet danced along in the way which every man understands, but which no man ever adequately described. She was such a picture of feminine grace, elasticity, and flowing curves as poets and susceptible Old 'tins catch inspira­ tion from. Filled with admiring thoughts of the general loveliness of woman--thoughts that were unques­ tionably inspired bv the poetic creature ahead of me--I obeyed the impulse to snatch a glance at her facej Oh, friends! She was chewing a wooden toothpick.- -Detroit Free Press. AN OPIUM EATER'S ST0BY. Tippling Women. A woman above the average height, and very handsomely dressed, entered one of the large dry goods establish­ ments, of which there are so many in the metropolis, a few days ago and walked up stairs. "She has gone in there to take a drink," said a female detective employed by the firm. "We have a great many customers of that pattern." Of late years the large stores have nicely fitted up toilet rooms with sev­ eral different apartments. It was in one of these the woman had disappeared. "There are a dozen or so different re­ tiring rooms in there, and in one of those that woman has gone to tipple," said the detective. "Almost every day I am called to take some tipsy female out of the place. Some of them come in perfectly sober and bring tlfeir toddy with them, ami sit in there till they get full. Many of them get noisv; others are quiet. When they get stupid I just lock them in until tiiey get straight again and are able to go off alone. We never make a fuss with them, because we do not wish to have any excitement over the matter. As a rule I am able to coax them to go off without much trouble. . "Very often women, whom I knew to occupy respectable and even high social positions, come here well under the in­ fluence of stimulants. They drop in to get another drink from the flask they bring in with them. The woman who cleans up the place says she finds from half a dozen to a dozen empty bottles even day stuck away in the corners and under the chairs. As no man ever comes in this department, of course they are left by the fair sex. When the lower class of females stop here, they are then usually full, and come in to so­ ber up. while the quiet and respectable tipplers do most of their drinking here. "My 10 years experience as a shop woman and detective tells me that drinking as a feminine vice is greatly on the increase. Yet there is by no means as much of it as people would have us suppose. The great majority of women with whom I come in con­ tact, while they are fond of a good glass, keep within the bounds of propriety. There is where they differ from the men."--New York Letter. The Northern Bonndary of , the United States. There is little danger that anyone wishing to settle in far Northern Da­ kota will by mistake find himself in the Dominion. The boundary is marked plainly and continuously by stone cairns seven and one-half by eight feet; mounds seven by fourteen feet; iron pillars seven . feet high, eight inches square at the bottom and four at the top, and timber posts five feet high and eight inches square. There are 385 of these marks between the Lake of the Woods and the base of the Rocky Mountains. East and west of the Red River, the boundary is marked by cast- iron pillars at mile intervals. "Ameri­ can" and "British" pillars alternate. On one side of each post is "Convention of London;" on the other "October 20, 1818." Where lakes are crossed, stone heaps have been built projecting several feet above water. In forests the line was first marked by felling the timber a rod wide and clearing away the under­ brush ; where this line has since been obliterated, posts have taken its place. Why It Was Rank. "Mr. Flipkins," said Widder Coshan- nigan, his landlady, "I do wish when you take pay in trade from your coun­ try subscribers, that you would be more careful and not allow them to palm off bad butter on you. I lost two boarders this morning, owing to your not tasting of that butter last night before you brought it home." " "What butter? I didn't bring home any butter." "Why, that box of batter you left on the window seat in the dining-room. Clairette found it after you had gone, np stairs." "Great Peter! Yoa didn't use that for butter, did you? I hunted high and low for that box and thought I had lost it. It was a box of axle-grease Farmer Dobbin asked me to buy and send to him by express."--Newman Independent.

Wilson, of Loveland, O., formerly with Mar oil, Harwood A Co., manufacturing chemists of St Louis, and of the well-known firm of IL C.

"I have erawL'd over red hot bars of iron and coals of fire," he said, "in mv agony dur­ ing an opinm frenzy. The very thought of my sufferings freezes" my blood and chills my bones. I was then eating over :!0 grains of opium dailv." "How did you contract the habit?" "Excessive, business cares broke mo down and my doctor prescribed opinm! That is the way nine-tanths of cases commence. When I determined to stop, however, I found 1 could not do it. "You mav be surprised to know," he said, "that two-hftlis of the slaves of morphine and opium are physicians. Many of these I met We studied our cases carelully. We found out what the organs were in which the appe­ tite was developed and sustained; that no vic­ tim was tree from a demoralized condition of these organs; that the hope of a cure <?<•/>e?ided entirety upon the degree of vigor which could be imparted to them. I have seen patients, while undergoing treatment, compelled to ro- sort to opium again to deaden the horrible pain in those organ*. I marvel how I ever escaped." "Do you mean to say, Mr. Wilson, that yon have conquered the habit?" * "Indeed 1 have." "Do you object to telling me how?" "No, sir. studying the matter with several opium-eating physicians, we liecanie satisfied that the appetite lor opium was located in the kidneys and iiver.

I thereupon began using it Implementing it with my own special tit finally got fully over the liahit. I may say that the most, important part of the and, eup treatmen treatment is to get those organs first into good working condition, for in them tho appetite originates and is sustained, and in them over ninety per cent, of all other human ailments originate. "For the last seven years this position has been taken by the proprietors of that remedy, and finally it is becoming an acknowledged sci­ entific truth among the medical profession; many of them, however, do not openly ac­ knowledge it, and yet, knowing thov have no other scientific spec.tie, their code not allowing them to use it, they buy it upon the quiet and prescribe it in their own bottles." "As I said before, tho opium and morphine habits can never be cured until the appetite for them is routed out of the kidneys and liver. I have tried everything,-- experimented with everything, and as the result of my studies and investigation, I can say I know' nothing can accomplish this result but Warner's safe cure." "Havo others tried your treatment?" "Yes, sir, many; and all who have followed it fully have recovered. Several of them who did not first treat their kidneys and liver for six or eight weeks, as I advised them, com­ pletely failed This form of treatment is al­ ways insisted upon for all patients, whether treated by mail or at tho Lovelanct Opium In­ stitute, and supplemented by our special pri­ vate treatment, it always cw'es." Mr. Wilson stands very high wherever known. His experience is only another proof of tho wonderful and conceded" power of War­ ner's safe euro over all diseases of tho kidneys, liver, and blood, and the diseases cause 1 by derangements of these organs. Wo may pay that it is very flatter­ ing to tne proprietors of Warner's safe cure that it has received the highest medical in­ dorsement, and, after persistent study, it is ad­ mitted by scientists that thero is nothing in materia medica for the restoration of those great organs that equals it in power.
