ACoroner’s Jury Relieves the Railroad Employes From Blame. The funeral of James Sullivan, the young man killed by a cattle train on Virginia avenue Tuesday night, took place this: morning from his late residence, No. 935 Boundary street. ‘The coroner held an inquest over the body yes- | terday afternoon. When the coroner first ex- amined the case he concluded that an inquest was nunecessary, but, at the request of the young man’s father, he reversed his decision and the wiynesses to the affair were examined. Wm. Murphy, a young man who was with the | deceased before he was killed, was interrogated. He said that he and Sullivan had been drink- ing before the accident occurred. His com- anion left him at the 3d street crossing on irginia avenue and slipped behind the gate. He last caw him walking along the north- bound track. Sullivan was killed about 100 feet from the crossing. Ben Cox,a saloon keeper, gave evidence | showing t Sulhvan was intoxicated. The engincer stated that he saw an object on the track, and he at once applied the air brakes and locked the wheels. ‘Ihere were fourteen cattle ears in the train, and they were so heavy that the train moved some distance after the wheels were locked. ‘The jury returned a verdict exonerating the railroad company and its employes. When the accident occurred Sullivan was in a soomeg Le on. The engine struck him and rolled him along the track for about 35 | feet. His legs were cutoff below the knees and his shoes were on his feet when the severed members were picked up. Cne of his hands were terribly mangled and his arm was troken, There was an ugiy wound on the head and the scalp in one place was torn from the skall, There were also bruises and scars about the face and body. When the train stopped the injured man was beneath the cars, siaseecrnat RiS RESIDE: QUESTIONED. Charged With Attempting to Vote. B. L. Braselman, who has been an appointee in the secret service and in the fish commis- sion service, was sent to the grand jury in Rich- mond yesterday by the police justice, charged | with attempting to vote illegally at Tuesday's election. Amoug the witnesses examined was Congressman George D. Wise, who testified that Mr. Braselman had been living in Wash- ington for eightor nine years; that the greater portion of iis time he had been in the govern- mentemploy; that he unquestionably lives in Washington; his family is there; that his wife is engaged in business in that city on 11thstreet, and her name is on the sign over the door. Braseiman said he went to Washington in 1881 to take a place in the secret service, and he was removed from office through the influence of Congressman Wise in February, 1888, After ward Mr. Wise secured him a position in the fish commission, which he held until July or August, 188%. He was out of service some nine or ten months when he received the appoint- ment to the position he now holds.

A “DUTCH” DOCTOR. Drop a Nickel in the Slot and Take a Pill. From the London Telezraph. If it be the case, as the medical world holds with some reason, that the man who is his own doctor has a fool for a paticnt, then a certain | Dutch apothecary is trying to make fools of the whole human race. This much too ingeni- ous Hollander has turned his attention in the direction of automatic machines, and has evolved from his inner conscicasness an inven- tion which is likely to have the most appalling results, That is to say. it would prodace such results if it were ever allowed to become a grim and gruesome reality; but we confidently look to the common sense of the United Nether- lands to nip it in the bud. Most automatic machines, as everybody is aware, are shaped like iron boxes, standing on pedestals of the same metal, or have the form of square, squat iron towers, tapering at the top into two thin as which contain the required article or jainty. Now. however, we are to be blessed with an iron man, which will stand in our thoroughfares and railway stations if the Duich | imvention ever spreads to these shores. He will be divided internally into neat compart- ments, which will be labeled outside “Lungs,” “Liver,” “Heart” and so on,and each com- artmen? will, we presume, be fitted with a nob anda slit foracoin. The iron gentle- | man will, in fact, be honeycombed with little drawers, and in the drawers will be placed ——— for the cure of all the ailments whic! feela in the region where you are given aera that your liver is likely to reside. s You make for the nearest place of public re-| » sort where you know the automatic doctor to be stationed, and you hastily put his fee into the appropriate receptecle, drawing out in ex- change a pili or potion, which, being int away the unpleasant F From the Pall Mall Budget, ‘The English upper classes are clean, but cleanliness of any high degree is a very modern virtue among them, It is an invention of the humarity.

Con- tributions of money, groceries, fuel and cast- off clothing will be gladly received by any member of the aesociation. A Homwenrss Boy.—Eddie Robinson is a nine- year-old colored boy who was found sleeping on a lumber pile on Green street about 10:30 o’clock last night. He was taken over to the lime kiln by some white men, who gave him something to eat, and Policernan Bloom took him to the station. He said that his mother lives in Cherry alley; that she gave him away | to a lady, but she wouldn't have him; that bis motber told him never to come home again. *Vagrancy” was the charge against him when | he appeared in the Police Court this morning. | “There's a demand tor homeless girls,” said Judge Miller, *-but there is uo demand for boys. ‘The question is what to do with him, ‘There is no place except the work house where he can be sent. If he is sent there for three months he is three months ahead in rascality, | and if he is turned cut on the street he will be picked up by som older person and put, through a transom or into a ar to steal.” The jndge crdered the boy ia custody until something can bs done for him.

Until a few days ago a merry-go-round made a dismal vacant lot on 5th avenue a very para- dise to the young folks of Solo. The man who owned the whirligig made lots of money while he tarried there. A gentleman who lives near by calculated that no less than #60 were exchanged for rides on the merry-go-round every day that was tine. Still the owner of the flying horses did not have things all his own way. Now and then a gang of toughs would descend upon him and insist upon running things to suit themselves. After one or two such tations the showman determined to give the tougus a surprise party the next time they came. A day or two after- warda dozen hard cburacters, ranging from twelve to sixteen years, appeared upon the scene, and a young fellow with closely cropped hair, a black eye and a square chin stepped up tothe showman and said: “Say, mister, we'se goin’ to ride on dis yer machine, an’ we ain’t goin’ to pay—see!” ‘Yo the surprise and even disappointment of the young sluggers, their victim smiled pleas- antly and said: “All right—get on.” So the short-haired citizens mounted the fly- ing horses and the show! started the machine. Around went the toughs in great glee. The machine wenta little faster and the riders howled for joy. Again the speed in- cressed and the howis grew fainter and further apart, The showman turned on all the steam and the m -round whirled like a hum- ming top at its first gait. The boys were shout- ing no longer. Silence would have reigned | but for the rattle and creaking of the machine. For two or three minutes the big wheel re- volved with t idous rapidity.

A Description of a Few of Europe’s Big Guns. From the Memphis Avalanche, The recent completion of a 185-ton gf at Essen for the Russians and its shipment from Hamburg to Cronstadt, says the New York Sun, after a successful test at the Meppen range, has marked another stage in the making of monster ordnance, The largest Krupp gnn previously made was one of about 119 tons, throwing projectiles of 2,314 pounds, Italy has two of these :ffounted in a shore battery and it is for coast defense also that Russia intends to use the new gun obtained from Krupp. It has been said that the next step in advance under- taken by the Essen works will be the making of # 150-ton gun, which will throw a projectile weighing 3,000 pounds. E Hardly less interesting than these calibers are the more familiar 110-ton guns of the Els- wick works, inesmuch as they are used for the batteries of British ships, as, for example, on the Benbow. ‘This gun is forty-four feet long, or about two fect less than the 119-ton Krupp, and its caliber is sixteen anda half inches. The diameter of the powder chamber is twenty- one inches and the maximum charge is 950 pounds, to be used with a projectile weighing 1,800 pounds, With the extreme powder charge a muzzle energy of 62,700-foot tons is expected. ‘These figures show a great change from thirty years ago, when the _Diths cannon mounted on awar vessel throw ashot weighing only sixty-cight pounds and possessing an energy © only 1,100-foot tons, Still there are not lacking complaints against the 110-ton guns. Those which have been built for the Victoria and Sauspareil are said to have developed serious defects, two out of the four already delivered having failed on the test, and one seriously collapsed, A gun of this | size costs over $100,000, so that the loss is serious in case of failure. Yet this isa matter that may not concern the government where private works, like those of Elswick and Essen, supply the guns. The makers have to stand the loss if the gun does not come up to the | contract requirements. There is apt to be much exaggeration in the reports of the short- comings of heavy guns, Krupp has made four 119-ton guns for Italy, and the Elswick works ave made many 110-ton guus for the Duillio, Dandaio, Italia and Lepanto, besides the 105-ton guns for the Andrea Dosia, the Francisco Lauria and the Morosini. The French have also many heavy guns, although none of quite as great weight as the Krupps and Armstrongs, Imprisoned for Debt. From the Chicago Mail. “A man who will imprison the father of seven children for a debt of $36 ought to be prose- cuted criminally and civilly,” said Judge Tut- hill with great indignation this morning. Asher Lazarus, a peddler, asked for his release from jail on a writ of habeas corpus, He was im- prisoned by Finkelstein Bros., butchers, for a debt of $36. The petitioner presented a moat woe-begone and wretched appearance as he took the stand and testified that no demand was made on him for a schedule of his property before he was thrown into juil, as is required by law. “What was the debt for?” asked the judge. “Meat und whisky.” “Whisky from a butcher!” said the court, rather staggered, ‘Well, did you have any property’ “N jothing but what my family and I have on our backs.” “How much of a family have you?” “A wife and sevenchildren,” replied Lazarus, as the tecrscame to his eyes. ‘The effort of the man to repress his tears affected the judge. “Let the petitioner be discharged,” he said in thunder tones, og es honor please—” said a lawyer who stood beside Lazarus’ counsel, asked the judge roughly, “Tam the attorney for the creditors of this man.” “Well, I want to hear nothing from you, air. ‘The arrest of this man is an outrage. No’ mal e on his oat is shown, and the man who will prison the father of seven children for a debt of $36 ought to be prosecuted eri ‘inally and civilly.” The creditors’ lawyer id not stay to face the judicial storm, and as he slipped away the court said: “I have had an experience with that lawyer before in the criminal court. My court cannot be employed by such as he to perpetrate so flagrant an in- justice.” The wife of Lazarus, Lazarus himself, and five of his seven children went away weeping, Carannn Isacomplaint which affects nearly everybody, more orless. It originates in a cold or succession of coils, coibined with impure blood. Disagrecable flow from the nose, tickling in the throat, offeusive breath, pain over and between the eyes,ringiug and bursting noises in the ears, are the most common symptoms. Catarrh is cured by Hood's Sarsaparilla, which strikes directly at its cause by removing all impurities from the blood, building up all the diseased tissues and giving healthy tone to the whole system. STUFFED-UP FEELING. “For several years Ihave been troubled with that terribly disagreeable disease, catarrh. I took Hood's Sarsaparilla with the very best results, It cured mo of that continual dropping in my throat and stufted- up feeling, It has also helped my mother, who has taken it for run down state of health and kidney trouble. T recommend Hood's Sarsaparilla to all as a good medicine.” MRS, 5. D. HEATH, Putuam, Conn, FOR 25 YEARS. “For 25 years I have been troubled with eatarth in the head indigestion and general debility. I concluded to trya bottle of Hood's Sarsaparilla, and it did me so imiuch good that I continued its use till I have taken five bottles, My health has greatly improved, and I f diferent woman.” MRS.
