Yesterday Francisco Potillo,
aged 78, died of a lung com-
plaint.
On accoaut of yesterday
aeing a feast day our contem-
poraries did not appear.
It is said the chances are
very good for the early com-
pletion of t&e to. & M. 11R. to

ported off Bagdad, is a new

is also subsidized by the sec-
retary of the interior.
It is complained that at the
Children's hospital, in the
city of Mexico, the poor
children are half naked and
more than halfstarvod, so much
so that people taking fruit to
some patients there saw the
other unfortunate little ones
absolutely lighting for the
peelings.
A QUESTIONABLE TRANSAC -
TION ALL AROUND.
A merchant of this city ad-
vertised for a smart boy.
Yesterday, when ono of that
specie^ applied, he was shown
into the presence of the
merchant, and a moment after
the latter left the room the
lad, to put in his time, cast his
optics around the room, and
noticed a dollar hill sticking
from the waste basket. This
he removed, and when the

minating the Kelly family.

The chemists of the muni
cipal laboratories ot Paris
now conduct their examina-
tions of food under a strong
light, which permits the use
of a photographic microscope.
In such articles as farina,
paper, sugar and like dry sub-
stancos, adulterations thus
become very perceptible.
The photographs are taken into
court, were they are iiftpected
by the judges, who were
formerly obliged to rely
wholly on the testimony ot
experts.
From the Monitor Repub-
licano of Dec. 21:
During the first half of
December the Vera Cruz cus-
tom house took in only $98,
500 against $408,500 for thf
corresponding period of last
year.
Domingo Sescosse got a
patent on the 18th for a ma-
chine called El Repasador.
Recently at Valle de Zin-
talpa, Tabasco, a brutal fellow,
who had been refused in mar-
riage by an accomplished and
beautiful young girl, at night,
with three companions, broke
into her house, tied up the
girl like an animal hand and
foot and, taking her off to a
secret'place, there repeatedly
raped her. Strange to say the
wretch has not been brought to
justice.
At Paso del Norte on a re
cent feast day, a young fellow
while firing off a salute from
his pistol had the misfortune
to shoot his mother through
the heart. The unfortunate
son went immediately insane.
The Chan Santa Cruz*In-
dians, occupying a portion of
the peninsular of Yucatan,
though sueing for peace on
account of the ravages of the
locusts in their section, re-
cently captured an unfortun-
ate man named Francisco
Avala, at a place called Chum-
pon, twelve leagues from
Chan Santa Cruz, tied him
to a tree and burned him
alive.

over. The boy was at once
unceremoniously fired, the
merchant saying: "Young,
man, I put that bill there to
see if you would be shrewd
enough to siez^ on to it., and
here you have been chump
enoitgb to give it back. I
want a smart hoy," As the
lad went out he muttered
that if it had been $5 instead
of$l, bed be blamed if he
wouldn't kept it.—Omaha

A novel suicide was that of
a beautiful equestrinne at
Bobriusk in Russia. Toward
the close of an evening's per-
formance her turn came to
ride round the ring as usual
She did so, and went through
with most of her daring and
difficult feats, bun immediate-
ly after jumping through tho
last hoop, she flourished a re-
volver, placed the muzzle of
it to her temple, and, while
her horse was still in full
career, fired and dropped dead
upon the sawdust. The cause
for the act was atributed to
embarrassments and reverses
in love.
It is said that tho largest
organ in the world has been
built by Walck, of Ludwigs
burg, and placed in the Cathe-
dral of Riga. It measures 36
feet in width, 32 feet from
back to front, and (i5 feet in
height. It was not less than
6,820 pipes distributed among
124 sounding stops.
