There were seven young people
in the party. Mr. Steele and
Miss Boise were a few feet in ad
vance of the other five, when
they were caught by a huge
breaker, which carried them all
oil' their feet and into the embrace

AUSENIC AMD AMMONIA.
Remarkable Contrast in the Effect of
Two Poisons on the Complexion,
The slow absorption of many
poisions changes in some more
or less modified form tbe complex
ion, but arsenic and ammonia
show their effect about as quickly
as any. The popular believe that
arsenic clears the complexion has
led many silly women to kill them
selves with it in small continued
doses.
It produces a waxy, ivory-ap-pearence
of the akin during a
certain stage of the" poisoning, but
its terrible after effects have be
come too well known to make it of
common use as a cosmetic.
The effects of ammonia upon the
complexion are directly the op
posite to that of poisoning which
appears among those who work
in ammonia factories is a discolora
tion of the skin of the nose and
forehead. This gradually extends
over tbe face until the complexion
has a stained, blotched, and un
sightly appearence. With people
who take ammonia into their
systems in smaller doses, as with
their water or food, these etriking
svmptoms do not appear so soon.
The only effect of the poison that
is visible for a time is a general
unwholesomeness and sallowness
of the complexion.
Many people are slowly absorb
ing ammonia poison without know
ing it. Tbe nse of ammonia in
the manuiactunes lias gretaiv in
creased of late, and is unquestion
ably used as an adulterant in
certain food prepartionp. Ollicial
analysis have plainly showed its
use even in such cheap articles of
every day consumption as baking
powders, ine continued ansorp-
tion of ammonia in even minute
quantities as an adulterant in food
is injurious not merely from its
effect upon the complexion, but
because it destroys the coating of
the stomach and causes dygpepia
and k metered evil1;.
Professor Long of Chicago, is
"Uthority for the statement that,
if to fifty million parts of water
.there is one part of ammonia, the
water is dangerous.
Kx-Concreasinaa Sjcott Very ill.
Erie, Pa., August 5. Kx Con
gressman W. L. Scott lies very
sick at his residence from this
city. His physician is very ieti
cent, but there can be little doubt
that Mr. Scott is Buffering from his
old stomach trouble. Two weeks
ago, on the recommendation of his
physician, be went to Cambridge
mineral rprings, but tne water,
instead of benefiting bun, aggra
vated bis symptoms, and he re
turned home to take to his bed,
from which he has not risen since.
The members of Mr. Scott's
family are all here, and, though
but little is given to the public
regarding Mr. Scott's condition,
thev cannot diainiise their
anxious concern nor lonv'ulion
that he is a verv sick man.
New Telefrnpli Itlanks.
The Western Union Telcrapii
Company has recently adopted
a new style cl telegraph blanks.
The new blank has printing on
the back. '1 he saving to the Co.
through this change will be enor
mous. The old-time blanks, with
which every one is familiar, had
a printed heading, but the back
was clear, on which account the
public became accustomed to us
ing telegraph bla iks for mem
orandum paper. You have seen
men, says the Astoriao, deliber
ately step into a telegraph otlice
and' take a pi-tl of blanks oil' the
counter to carry away for ue e'se-
where and otherwise than lor
sending messages. Newspaper re
porters and correspondents used
large quantities of the blanks for
copy. It was sniootli-taced paper,
and the sizing was well adapted
to the use of the pen. Hereafter
the public will not be accommo
dated in this respect, as the rules
of tbe company nre printed on the
back ol all blanks, and there is no
surface for writing anything but
messages.

great excitement over a duel which

streets last night between c.. if.
Sligh, a prominent lawyer, and
Robert J aggers, editor of the
Public Opinion. Sligh met Jag
gers in front of the Public Opin
ion otlice, and, drawing a pistol,
covered him and administered a
cowhid ing. Jaggers retreated into
bis otlice and returned in amoment
with a pistol and opened fire on
Sligh, who returned the fire.
Chief of Police Marshall rushed in
to separate the combatants, and
thinking Jaggers was firing on
him, opened fire too. For two or
three minutes the street was full
of bullets. Sligh was shot in the
face and neck and is in a most
dangerous condition. Jaggers was
unhurt, although both Sligh and
tbe chief of police emptied their
pistols at him. The trouble grew
out of an attack upon Sligh in J ag
ger's paper, Jaggers has the
reputation of being somewhat of
the George Francis Train type.
Sligh is a lighter and has been
engaged as principal in several
duels.

James Springer, lie was never

thinking he had been drowned,

The letters were from James and
he tells a strange story. He says
he escaed but was so dazed by

The Yuusi Klnf of Servla.
London, Aug. 5. King Alexan
der of Servia is said to have made
so favorable an impression on the
czar that the latter permitted him
to be introduced to his daughter,
tbe Grand Duchess Xenia, who is
about tbe same age as Alexander,
15 years, and the two were per
mitted to be each other's company
during all the court ceremonies of
the czarina s name day. Aenia
and Alexander seemed very much
pleased with each other. Of
course there can be no engagement
at such an early age, but it is sure
that Alexander will go home vrith
the implied promise that if he
pleases the czar be will in due
time be the czar's son-in-law,

that the tower would be superior
