respirations bad ceowd permanent

wrist, and no heart bial was heard
on auscultation. Pn.f. LudcT re
ported in this case a pressure of 1,485
volts. Fceliog that' the contact
had been unnecessarily prolonged, it
was determined to in ike them a
little shorter in the cat-oof Juglro.
Three contacts of 15 seconds each
wereMade, with two InteriiiladnDe
of 20 seconds each. When the cur

fluttering was felt at I he wrists.
The pressure repor.ed by Prof. JriU

are Inclined lo the belief that, while
unconsciousness was instantaneous
and continuous irom the first
moment of contact lu each case,
yet in order to ensure that death
supervene as rapidly us possible, it
is ncces3ary to continue a current of
the voltage employed in theso cares
for from fifty to sixty seconds. In
each case the temperature of tho

not quite, to the boiling point, so as

PARSEI.LISDKAD.
London, Oct. 7. -Great ItriUin
and Ireland was startled this morn
ing by the utterly unlooked for an
nouncement that CbJS. Stewart
Parnell, the noted Iri.h hader had
died suddenly yesterday evening in
Hrigbton. It has been known that
Parncll has not enjoyed the best of
health for year, and it has been
noticed and widely commented
upon, that since the O'Shea divorce
developments and political trouble
.ame .upon him, the great Irish
.nembr or parliament has grown
thinner, that be Is perceptibly aged
in appearance, hut nobody expeeted
to bear of his death, and noinkllne
as to bis Mines? had reached th
newspapers. He died at his home.
Walslugham Terrace, Brigh
ton at 11:30 jesterdoy evening
Death is said to have been indirectly
due to .a (chill caught last week,
which at fiwl was not regarded at
serious. Parnell, '.however, grew
worse," and a physician was called
In, with the remit that the patient
was ordered taken to bid. This was
Friday last and from that time Par
nell lost strength, and -finally suc
cumbed. The exact hiiture of the
disease Is not known at pieMsnt
From the dy he took his bed how
ever, the state of Parnell's health
was such us to require the constant
attendance of two physicians. But
in spite of their untiring efforts to
nrolonir or save his life, Purnelr
gradually sank lower and lower un
til be expired in the arms of Mrs.
Parnell, who Is utterly prostrated by
the shock
In this city particularly, the news
of Parnell's death came like a thun
der bolt upon the clubs and ifoliti
cal parties. The lust time that Par
nell appeared in public was at
Creggs, Ireland, Kept. 27, when he
delivered n long speech upon the
attitude and alleged inconsistencies
of Dilllon and O'Brien. Upon thut
occasion Parnell stated he was
speaking in defiance or tuo or
ders of his doctors. Coupled
with tho announcement that Par
nell, In'.d died newB that Sir John
Popo IJenne.y, member, of parlia
ment from North Kilkenny was also
dead. HenuesHy, it will bo remem
bered immediately after the exposure-
in the O'Shea divorce case con
tested tho North Kilkenny election
backed by Parnell's opponents and
defeated tho Parnolllto's candidate,
Vinc3iit Scully 1147 votes. This
was possibly tho greatest test of
strength between Parnellltcs and
McCarthyltes, nnd the defeat of
Scully no doubt counted for a great
deal lu the future series of disasters
which befell the Irish leader.

Ci.EVKrAND, O., Oct. 7.-Leham
fc Schmidt, architects of this city,
have a very curiously fashioned
broad-axe In their office which was
found several days ago by the work- j
men, who were excavating for the j
foundation of the new chapel in the
Uuited Jewish Cemetery near Max-!
field, Ibis county. The axe was
found In the shale, several feet be
low the surface and there is no evi
dence that tbe ground at that spot
nd been lefore disturbwl. It Is
made of very bard steel, to hard In
deed that it will chip the steel used
in alIeged"nou-awable" prison cells
without apparent injury to Itself,
and it is of two pieces. Tbe blartp
is 13J inches long and roundel at
the end, which is 61 inches wide in
the middle. The blade Is 5 Inches
wide in the middle, and about o(
an inch thick. The handle was
fastened to the weaton by a pimp,
wbloh was olid!y -riveted to lh
blade. A part of the handle is stll!
in place, and the wood looks as If It
were nearly petrified. The axe ap
pears as though it might have been
buried with an old Indian chief,
but the quality of the steel Is so
mueh better than was usually wild

BUFFAliO, Oct. 7. Yesterday ft!
noon the deputy marshal's men took
four Chinamen to the ferry for de
portation, acting under the Instruc
tion of Judge Coney, of the Fed
eral court, who had ruled they were
to be returned to Canada, us the
country whence they came. When
the fair Chinamen aa rived at Fort
Erie, on tbe opposite shore of the
Niagara river, a dilemma presented
iSjlf. Two had certificates of en
trance to Canada and were accepted.
Tnc other two had none and were
refused permission to land. They
remained aboard the boat and were
ferried baek to Bufialn. Here they
were not allowed to light bemuse of
the exclusion act, and so they re
mained on board the ferry boat ply
ing back and forth between the two
countries, taking in the river seen
ery, but very much in doubt whetb
er they would ever set foot on dry
laud again. The captain of the
l)oa t was almost as distressed as the
Chinese. He feared he might have
to engage them as deckhands since
he could not land them anywhere as
pipsengcrs. Finally the Canadian
authorities agreed to their landing in
Fort Erie, provided they paid the
cntrnucn fee. This tbe Celestials
willingly agreed to do. Each pro
duced the required amount, &0.

Paris, Texas, Oct. 7. Cooiwr,
Delta county, is In a ferment of ex
citement over u case of the most de
praved nature. Yesterday after
noon C. I. Walla, of thut place, was
mrwtod aud lodged in jail on a
charge of lui;ot tiled agalmtt him
by his daughter. Tho develop
ments are of a startling nature
tinged with romanee. About three
or four in inths ago Mm. U. E WalU
and her husband, C. K WalU, sep
arated on aoeojut of abuses by
Walls, Mrs. WalU taking her three
little children. Walls ooutlued his
harassing abuses by taking away
the baby, stoning the bouso at night
and by every ooueolvabld lutannofs
ho could think of, Laid Saturday
or Sunday WalU (oik the b.tby boy,
3 years old, to hU hotue. )u Mon
day the llttU fellow managed to gel
to his mother, aud it was found tliat
he haJ been uj-M brutally whipped.
From hU walt down were tweuty-
eight tripl made with a awitnh,
letting out the blood. It had been
lapprd on tiwtldeof tha face, and
beneath the eye there were finger
murks. Tuo good opI of tho

now their Indication txilled over.
Thai night fifty of Cooper' best
eltlzeui met at tha court hqua and

Walls, and appointed a committee
to wait upon him and demand his !
speedy ab-ence. Walls had been
married twice, and by his first wire
had two children. They separated, i
she taking the boy and he the girl, j
The girl was placed In an orphan
asylum, but he kept track of fapr.
After separation from his second
wife he sent for lib daughter, a girl 1
of 17, to keep house for him. Walls
wrote his son to come aft .r his sister.
He arrival yesterday and siw Ii.t
for the first time and never Une.
before that he bad such a rvlnilve.
He started to his home with her.
On the way she told him that hpr

Paris, Tex., Oct. 7. It is well

for inquiring for letters. For years
they have leen banging around the
poslnflice here calling for mail two
or tbrc times a day. They are not
expecting a letter from anybody in
purlicular, but expect onp to turn
up. They held a mass meeting aud
adopted the following resolutiens:
Whereas, There Is a general com
plaint on the part of colored people
as to how tliey are treated when
tbey ask fur mall; it Is very gener
ally rejKirted that when our ri-qple,
and esj-oial!y ladles, ask for mall
tbey are told there Is no mail for
ib--in without the clerk even turn
inir to look for the mail, Many of
our people get their mail after tt has

U'-solved, That we look upon thl
as unjust umj wrong, and we re
mhcI fully usk our postmaster to luok
into this matter aud to -ee that our

There Is no justice in the com

Story of Wild Steer.
A Kaunas cowboy tells of a masto
donlc wild steer that has roamed the
plains of the Southwest for many years,
unconquerable by the most daring and
Itillfnl herder. He says the steer killed
a big hilver tip bear in a fair fight two
years ago. The combat was a lernuie
affair, and was witnessed from a safe
distance by two cowboys. Tho beai
attempted to creep up on the steer, but
the latter saw him and at once gave
battle. As the steer charged the beai
roe to his hind feet and gavo the ox a
terrible blow with his paw, which
-erved to stagger the beast for a mo
nient, but with a bellow of rage the
steer again rushed at tho bear, and be
fore he could administer another blow
bnd bit him fair in the ribs and sent
l.;,., mllirirr nn ftin ETTAS. The flcht tlieD
became fast and furious, and soon the
bear was seen trying to crawl away
from his enraged opponent The steer
EffJS S.SVTi E
was too quick for mm. nowever, anq
to such an extent that death ensued.

Why Prussia Is So Called.
The modern name of Prussia Is de
rived from Borussi, or PorussI, who
conquered the country about 320 B. C.
Little is known concerning Prussia and
its people till the Tenth century, except
that that portion of the Baltic shore
which is now Included in the kingdom
of Prussia was formerly Inhabited by
Slavonic tribes, akin in customs and
languages to the Lithuanians. They
cam a in occasional collision with wave
after wave of tho great Teutonic raoe
as it flowed down from the icy porth,
receiving their first knowledge of Chris
tianity from BUhop Adalbert, of
Praguo, whom they martyred In 997.
In the middle of the Thirteenth cen
tury tho Teutonic knights, on their re
turn from the crusades, undertook the
conquest and conversion of Prussia.
The Borussia element mingled with the
followers of the Teutonio knights, and
subsequently with the Poles. Brook

Counting I'urtlclet of Water.
Water particles can now be counted
by Mr. John Aitken's latest mod.iHe
tlon of his apparatus for oounting tho
particles of dust in tho air. Iu his
communication to tho Royal Society of
Edinburgh, Mr. Aitken says of the instrument-
"It consists of a glass mi
crometer divided into squares of a
known size, a spot mirror for illuminat
ing the stage, and the strong lens of a
microscope for observing tho drops on
tho stage." In the case of one fog ob
served Mr. Aitken found tbe number
of drops falling per minute to reach
pearly 20,000 per square Inch. Lon

Impure or vitiated blood is
nine times out of ten caused
by fomo (orm of coQstiiatloa
or lndigwtlou that clogs up
Ujo system, when tho blood
naturally becomes impreg
nated with tho elfeto matter.
The old Sarsaparlllai attempt
to reach this condition by at-
Uicklnff the blood with the drastic mineral
"potash." Joy's Vegetable Earsaparllla is
modem. It goes to tho tea,t ot the trouble
It arouses tho liver, kldneys'and bowels and
invigorates tho circulation, and the impuri
ties are quickly carried off through, the natu
ral channels.
Charles Lee, at Deamish'a
Third and. Market Bta., 8. F.,
writes: 't took Itfor vitiated
blood and whllo on tho first
bottlo becamo convinced of
its merits, for I could feci it
was working a change. It
cleansed, purified and braceo
mo up generally, and every
thing is now working full and regular."
