MICKY FINN'S LYMPH.
SOFT SOAP AND WATER CHIEF INGRE-
DIENTS—HIS FATHER THE FIRST
PATIENT UNDER THE NEW
TREATMENT.
The second meeting of the Irish
Salon in Cooney island was largely
attended. The wonderful acquire-
ments of Mickey Finu as a scholar
had beau talked about so freely that
the kitchen was scarcely able to
bold all who come. All the chairs
were occupie 1, and the cover of the
wooden coal -box cracked under its
weight of listen3l•9. The subject for
dicuesiou was the outcome of a cur-
rent topic, which happened in this
instance to be the discovery by Dr.
Koch, of Berlin, of au alleged cure
fir consumption.
"I do be heariu' thim say in the
quarry that a Dootchman has inviut-
ed a cure for disease," said Mike
Welsh front a cloud of tobscco
smoke, "an' there'll be no snore
fuuefald. Is that thruo' Mickey ?"
"So I do be readin' in the Ponek•
koekie Blather," replied the boy. as-
suming the attitude of a professor at
a clinic.
"They call it the limp."
"And how much is it a bottle ?"
said Mrs. McFadden, who had a
slight cough.
"Ah ! ye can't buy it. They
give it away," replied little
Mike.
"Give it away !" the whole com-
pany exclaimed in chorus. "And
where can ye get it ?"
Arrah, ye'll have to go to the
Dootchmen's house to get it, rand
then he won't give it to ye until he
pounds on yer chist and listens,
till he sees if ye're breathin' quare
like a wind-broken horse."
"FWhat's his
Judy Flannigan.
"Mr. Cotch,"
"And fwhat's
name?" inquired
replied Mickey.
he like?"
"Well, I never seem hie, but
they say he's a little old man, wid
galwaye and chin whiskers, and he
tries all his inviushuns on his dog,
which the same he has for that same
purpose eutoirely. If be kills the
dog lie throws it away, but if the
dog cau stand it,begorra he says it's
good enough for min, women and
children."
"Do ye take it wid a spoon or
how !" asking Mrs. O'Brien, anx-
iously.
"No,' said the you4l4ful chemist
gravely, "Ye take it wid a squirt -
gun."
This reruarlr excited a howl
of derision. Even the bull -dog
growled.
"Yez can laugh," said Mickey in
a nettled tone, "but it's jist as thrue
as the squint in your eye Mike
Welsh,and you're lookin' both ways
for Sundays. Faith, if yez won't
believe mo I'll not tell ye any more
about it atall, atall."
Little Mike lapsed into silence,
but by means of soothing lan-
guage and gestures the com-
pany persuaded him to resume his
talk.
"Well," he said, "ye might know
that the docthors say that there's
wurrums in everything that alive,
and some things that are not alive.
If ye were to be takin' a dhrop o'
water, and lookin' at it laid a UM -
scope, fwhat we'd ye see but t'ous-•
ands and t'ousands o'woeny wur-
rums swimmin' around, atin' each
other like cannibals atin' min.
Well, wan day, whin Dr. Cotch
was afther atin' his sour cabbage and
drinkin' his beer, he was sittin' be-
f.a.te the..fire-:thiniein'•-w ltat wrl gneue-
ious man he was altogether, and,
says hetwo himself, says he, 'Be-
gol'rn, I'll invint a cure for disease,'
says he, rand there'll he no more
tale for Yankee patent medicine'
says he and wid that heinvinted the
limp. Shure no wan knows bow he
rued the iuvintion, for he wee not
like you, Jack Brady ; whin he had
a good thing he knew enough to
kape a sthilt tongue in his,head and
his mouth closed like _ a jail gate.
But he didn't mind fellinr the other
Dootch doethore that the sayeret
was nothin' but hungry wurrums'
he iuvinted and put in a bottle.
But all the same he was too foxy
to be tellin' how he mad the wur-
r ti wa.
"Well, whin he had four bottles
full he tried the new iuvintion on
the dog, and the dog frulli bein'
thin and wake, got so fat that you
c'ud hear his akin etretchin' on his
back like a fiddle -string. Dr.
Colch was so plazed wid hint
self that he jumped up iu the air
and cracked hie heels together
twice."
"How about the squirt gun ?" i11
piled Jack Brady.
"I'm comin' to that if you'll be
aisy and give me tine," replied
Mickey.
"When Dr. Cotch had the invin•
Lion inviuted and corked up in bot
ties, wid nitroglycer'aue to feed on,
he says to himself, says he : 'Be-
garra, I roust go- down to Flanni•
gan's blacksmith's shop and make a
squirt -gun wid a nadle in the ind
and a hole thrbugh the nadle.' So
off he goes widout so much as sayin'
a word to Mrs. Cotch. And wid
his own hands he mrd the squirt -
gun no bigger nor a putty -blower.
Whin he had it all done he went
to the Dootch hospital wid the
squirt -gun in wan band and a bot-
tle o' limp in the other hand. And
says he to a poor divil that had dis
ease.
"'Lay over on your face,' says
he.
"'For fwhat?' says the tnan.
" 'Till I see will ye sthaud
the liwp as well as the dog,' says
he.
"And wid that the poor divjl
rowled over on his face,and the doc-
ther stuck the nadle o' the squirt -
gun uuder his ehoulder•blede and
squirted him full o' the limp. The
man was afeard, but Dr. Cotch says
to him, `Li aisy, ye blaggard. The
wurrums I'm afther puttin' intil ye
will ate up the disease,and thin yell
be cured., "
Mickey stopped to look about
him and tee what effect his tewark
able statement made upon his
auditors. The bulldog was gasp•
tng for breath in the tobacco laden
air.
"The doe can't athand it. I'll
have to be takin' him out in the
yard," said Jack Brady, rising and
leaving the room with his opeu•fac-
ed pet.
"Don't be minding llim,soushla,"
gala Mrs. „O'Brien, soothingly.
to Mickey. "Go wan wid yer
sthory•"
There was an angry flush upon the
boy's face and a glitter in his eye as
he continued :
"By hoke3, I'll not tell ye any
thing about things. I'm not goin' to
be med fun of by thitn as hasn't ed-
dicashun."
"Don't mind, Mickey," arose
from all sides. "Tell us something
else."
"I'm almost through," said the
boy ; "but before I'm quite
done I musht tell ye about the loo -
pus."
"The fwhat ?" exclaimed his moth-
er.
"The loopus, a quare disease that
killed many a decent man that said
his 11'ayers every night. Ye'Il be
gettiii' up in the mornin' afther
goitt' to bed airly like a dacint man
should and ye'Il Le findin' yer neck
wid red patches :on it like a bed -
quilt. If ye have the loopus rale
bad ye're like to die wid it. But if
ye take a aqua gun full o' limp
whin ye're first cotch wid the dis-
ease you're all right. That's all I
can tell ye to night, bekase I have
to go out and tee if the goat has any
straw in his barrel."
The neighbors filed slowly out of
the shanty and walked homeward in
groups, discussing the marvels of the
new discovery.
The next morning when Mr.Finn
arose at six o'clock and washed him-
self in the little hand -basin, he
looked in the cracked mirror before
the washstand. In the truthful
quicksilver he saw upon his neck a
large red spot which seemed to grow
as he looked at it until it apparently
covered the size of his face. With
a howl of fear he ran into the bed-
room and covered himself with the
quilt.
"Oh, dear ; oh, dear," he groan-
ed, "I have the loopus. It's dyin'
I am. Biddy, dear, rind for Dr.
Cutch and the squirt -gun. Quick,
quick, I feel quare in me bones.
Where's Mickey, till I kiss him
goodby."
Mickey came running into the
bedroom. in Mr. Finn's fear he
had exposed hie feet, and they also
were flushed as vivid a oolor as that
of his neck. Mickey was thorough-
ly alarmed. He ran for Dr.
Chork'er. The latter a egaraiI3
—hi/qua'. hill i solemn face
said :
"I'm afraitl,Mickey,that its a case
of dye."
"4,rTab, .don't eay that, docther,
dear, I'm not fit to go. Don't
touch it." cried the suffering cyan, as
the doctor took one of the -discolor-
ed arms in hie hand. "You'll catch
't,"
"There'e hope for you, Miohael,if
you'll lie quiet," said the doctor as
he wrote the following prescrip-
tion:
Sapoaia mollis, oz xij; aqua purrs,
coag. ij; sig. lavate cum spon-
gia magna.
B. F. CHORuER, M. D.
The druggist smiled as he read the
prescription.
"Why, sonny," said he, "that's
soft soap and water, to be applied
with a big aponge."
Mr. Finn had beeu tossing around
in uneaay slumber under a newly
died bed -quilt all night, and
the perspiration had loosened the
color.
BREACH. OP PROMISE CASE.
BETWEEN TWO LOVERS THE YOUNG
LADY 1N THE CASE
GOT NEITHER.
S.iruia, April 21.—The Assizes
opened here yesterday afternoon;
Hon. Mr, Justice Falcoubridge
presiding.
Emily Jane Hendricks vs, Wil-
liam M. S. Chesney, an action for
breach of promise of marriage; was
the first cane tried. As an opening
to the jury M,r. Oaler stated that,
unlike the ordinary case of this class,
there was nothing iu the present to
amuse the public. If the facts
were as he was instructed, the de-
feudant had *imply ruined the
plaintiff for life. The parties
reside in the township of Adelaide,
county of Middlesex. Plaintiff is a
haudeoute, attractive young lady
and the defendant is a wellto-do
young farmer. . In 1888, Mr, Osler
stated a young Ulan in the neighbor-
hood Was paying attentions to the
plaintiff with a view to marriage,
when detendant commenced to be
attentive to the plaintiff in such a
way that his rival ceased to visit
plaintiff: Shortly after, under a
promiae of marriage, Mr. Osler
alleged, defendant seduced the plain-
tiff, which seduction resulted in the.
birth of a child, Plaintiff's father
then sued defendant for the seduc-
tion[ of his daughter, and received a
judgment. The present action was
for hreach of promise and for the
maintenance of the child. The
plaintiff, in her evidence, related her
story substantially tate same as set
forth in Oaler's opening. She stat-
ed that the defendant had asked
her to marry him two or three times
before she consented. Defendant
pictured to her a brilliant future,
and told her about the nice home
they were going to have, and
she commenced to prepare her
trousseau.
Ou crossexaininatio,r Mr. Lister
asked plaintiff why it was she jilted
her first lover, G. Munro, who was
a very handsome, affable fellow, and
why she took to the defendant.
After some hesitation plaintiff ad,
rnitted that part of the reason was
that defendant had more money,
and she added, "he told me be liked
we so much." Plaintiff thought it
was a good marriage, but never
told anyone of her engagement but
her father.
Duncan Hendricks, father of the
plaintiff, corroborated the evidence
of his daughter to a certain extent.
On one occasion defendant apollogiz-
ed to witness for coming so often,but
explained by saying they were
engaged to be married in the fall.
Gillis Munro, the discarded lover,
testified that he had heeu paying
attentions to the plaintiff for about
a year, when he overheard a con-
versation between plaintiff and
defendant. When defendant urged
plaintiff to drop Gillis and take him,
plaintiff said she would think about
it, whereupon witness said : "No
need of thinking about at all. If
he wants you to have him I quit.
I won't play second fiddle to any
man," and witness added. "I did
quit."
On (roes-exatuination, witness
admitted that he had been paying
attention to plaintiff for about a
year ; had taken her out driving,
and took her to Strathroy to see her
aunt. Witness also stated that
plaiutifl was considered a good catch,
and that her father was considered
worth $15,000. When asked if he
did not want to get some of that
$15,000, witness replied that might
be it.
Mrs. Stephens, of Strathroy,
plaintiff's aunt, was called, and
testified that plaintiff and defendant
had acted like lovers at her house.
Plaintiff never told her of her en-
gagement, but witness said that was
unnecessary.
Thedefendant was then called and
denied having ever promised to
marry plaintiff, and swore positively
that Ile was never guilty of any
indiscretion with plaintiff: For the
suit at London, he did not go into
the lox and deny the charge, but
e-kbet .>;vv,aa..beceuaeeleis=lawyererefrete'd-
to allow him. He stated that he
had done work for plaintiff's father
and that was the reason of his
visits. The jury gave ylaintiff $300.
TOO MANY BBBEIM...
It certainly looks to as if toe many
new breeds of horses are being
brought into the country. It bats
becowe a aeriu.ua, matter with frit
and exposition associations, which
are supposed to "recognize" each of
those new breeds by appropriating
a sufficient amount in premiums to
put it on an equality with breeds
known for 'army years, and doing
bred iu largo number. Look at the
draft classes: There are the Shire,
Clydesdale,Sutfolk Punch, Perch•
exon, French Draft, and Belgian
clasees which '±claim ()cognition,"
and some of which it is impossible
to distinguisd•from one another by
the greatest experts living. You
simply have to rely upon the stud
books of some of these breeds as to
where they belong. Who can select
Percherona frpm French draft
houses? They are so similar in
character that to discriminate Le-
tween thein is impossible. It as
certain as anything eau be that, the
blood iu each is very similar. Or
where is the man who cau decide
whether a bunch of British draft
horses are Clydes or all Shires, or
comprised of both bl'eede? Where
is the Shire without Clyde blood,
or the Clyde free from Shire blood?
Then look at the Coach Horse
classes : Here are Cleveland Bays,
and French and Getman Coachers,
each bred for the same purpose, and
showing the strongest indications in
form and style that they trace to
the satire fountain head—the Eng-
lish thoroughbred. Admitting that
all these breeds. or rather familia.[,
of the horse have sufficient merit to
entitle them to the regard of the
breeder, why should not they, in
fairs and expositions, compete
against earl other? Put .Clydes --
and Shires together, all classes bred
fur coaching purposes, aud Perch-
erons and French Drafts. Then
make the premiums a great deal
larger, and perhaps add a fourth.
Select judges who are not engaged
in breeding any one of them, and
let the merits of each individual
animal, for the purpose for which
he is bred, determine where the
premiums shall go. Would not
those who are engaged in improv-
ing thoir stock bo able to form a
better idoa of the merits of a par-
ticular breed of horses after such a
competition than as at present Gon-
d ucted?
It is nothing to the farmer whe-
ther a horse is a Shite or Clyde if
he is the lige' h tie—. Neither would
it matter to him whether the stall-
ion he is breeding to is a French
draft or a Percheron if the colts are
all right.
The fact is, this multiplication of
breeds is a humbug, and not in the
interest of improved horse stock.
With equal right the breeders of
trotters could claitn that. there
should be classes for Hambletonians,
Clays, Morgans, Bashaws, etc,,
which are certainly as distinct in
character as some of those socalled
breeds.—Michigan Farmer.
BEN BUTLER "FIRED" OUT
OF COURT.
Gen. Benj. Butler appeared in the
Boston District Court the other day
in behalf of a client who had been
convicted of fraud in connection
with a pension. District Attorney
Allen moved for sentence, when
Gen. LButler arose to address
thr Court. Judge Carpenter, say-
ing the General was disorderly,
ordered Marshal Doherty to remove
him from the court room. The Mar-
shal and assistant advanced to Gen-
eral Butler's aide and took him by
the arms. General Butter endeav-
ored to address the court., when His
Honor called out—"Mr. Marshal."
Mr. Marshal Doherty said to Gen.
Butler :—"You heard the order of
the Judge, General." General But-
ler: "I am ready to—', His Honor
"Remove him Mr. Marshal. I can
not allow him to create any further
disturbance." General I3lftler I
ata here—" Before he could fini-b
the sentence he was tike hold of
by the Marshal and his assistants
and escorted from the room. Gen,
Butler's voice waa very much affect-
ed and his oyes full of tears as he
exclaimed :—"I yield to force."
When the Marshal released him in
the corridor Gen. Butler immediate-
ly returned to the court -room. The
,judge had just left the bench, how-
ever, and the General, seeing the
berm!) vacant, exclaimed:—"Well,
the room melte a little better than
it did a few minutes ago." He then
left the court. Gen. Butler, when
interviewed, said:—"Of course, I
shall take legal steps in conneclirin
with the matter. When a pian lays
his band on me, and has no right to,
he generally gets sued for assault and
battery. Of course there are other
remedies also. In gond time I shall
take care of them. 1 was never re-
moved front a court before in my
life, and I have pratised before all
the courts in the country for the
past 56 years. Nor have I ever
seen a lawyer removed from court
for an attempt to address it on behalf
of his client." '
