It will be profitable, aevsrtbelcaa, for them to read some of th of this unbridled rebra of rum. A reporter of Tag Ixtkx Ockah spent a few coora In the neighborhood of tha City Hall yesterday, with a view of tracing to tha bottom Mot feature of th sal coo-bond of the times.

Tha reporter paid tha first visit of hla tour to Mr. Howard, the City Clerk. Mr. Howard, be said, "do you keen anch a tbmg aa a register of tbe suretiee of tbe saloon keepers wbo are granted liquor Uoenoesf str. do not, Why don's yoni Dont you think it Impor tant that you and tnepnbllo should be able to ascertain at one who a saloon-keeper', sureties I never tbourht about It.

"Who drsw np tha form of th affidavit and bond?" "I dont know." "Wbo prints and publishes It?" "Every stationer wbo pleases." "Csn you show ma a copy of the affidavit they swear to?" "Yea; here is one." It ran aa follows: "In the matter of the application of John Smith for a license. Georre bmitb and Thomas btnith.

was then souzbt. He proved to be a stalwart black haired, bland-npoken Frenchman. Mr. Dupny. said the reporter, you are one of Mr, Macrs' sureties on his saloon bond.

135 Adams street, and Informed the reporter that Mr. Henrr Gade. one of his sureties, lived somswnere on the West bide, and Mr. Andrew Thalhofer. the other, waa a watchmaker, and lived a few doors to the east of him, at No.

127 Adams street, "What eaa I do for your" asked Mr. Thalhofer of the reporter as be stepped into bis store. "Mr. Thalborer." aald the inquisitor. "Tna Istkb Oczaji Bade that you are a aarety oa the saloon bond of your neigbborvMr.

May; and it wlshe. to know if yon woold be ao kind as to give it a description of your real estate. If ever a man looked terrified in this world Mr. Thalhofer did when thia request waa made ot him; and he haa never answered It yet. He went sroond his shop like a bee in a flour bar rel for live minutes without aot icing the reporter, and then dashed ont of tbe front door, remarking aa he passed.

"I will see about this," ran in the direction of May'a saloon. In tbe meanwhile the reporter aaked tbe employe In th- ahop for au inventory of Mr. Thafhofer'a real estate, aad tbey aasured him that he did not owa a foot of land anywhere. Very soon Mr. Thalhofer returned, and, without noticing th reporter, dashed behind bis counter, and went to work more industriously than ever, the very picture of despair.

The reporter spoke soot u-loglv to htm. and put easy questions to him; but he seemed to think, tha life had no longer any charms for him. and rel used to make any answer, unless cuffing hla son's ears might be cons trued into aa auawwr. The reporter thought he bad probed that wound deeply enough, and turned hia ateps toward tbe saloon of Mr Matthew Wal.h, at Ko. lie Yaa Buxen str set, corner of Clark street.

"Mr. Wasah," be aald, "oaa yoa Inform me where I can And Mr. James Irwia aad Mr. Marshall BatcliffT hy? hat do yoa want with them 7" "They are oa your saloon bond, and I want to see if they are good sureties. Where do they liver" Ther are employed aero ta the saloon." "Can I them?" "Irwin ia out, but there Is KatcllS sitting there at tbe end of the counter." The reporter walked around the end of the bar, and there he saw a dilapidated colored maa, wbo looked aa if he might have beea employed to cleaa out the spittoon for three drinks of whisky a day.

"air. Batcliff. I said the reporter. "Yaa'r." be replied politely, rising slowly and showing his teeth. "Mr.

Raiclig, do yoa owa aay real estate In this county?" "Maw. sir. Be drawled cam say I "Are you not on Mr. Walsh's saloon bond?" luano, sir; I dont think I am." "Yea, yoa are," said Walsh. "Ton signed It, but yoa didn't swear to it, neither of yoa." "Well." he said.

"I don't remember autaJn about It," tot mr wit. Mr. Walah then explained to th reporter that some man dropped into hla saloon and offered to procure bis license for him. Ha employed tbe straager to uo this, and the stranrer Informed him that under Harrtaoa's administration it waa tier of form, that anybody would do for sureties, and that ao waa nsu assi j. Mr.

Walsh aays that he credited all this, and al though be could get aa abundance of wealthy people to go on hla bond, yet, aa It was not necessary, aad ia order to save trouble, he oon erred the honor of becoming his sureties upon hia barkeeper and spittoon cieaaer.

Added to hla eloquence there it al ways a fund of valu able Information, and the lecturer haa that happy faculty of presetting tho old in a new light, so that the oft resoatod story is ever new.

There waa no Central 11c the Railroad, and few people dreamed of golnf to California in a Poll-man palace car.

It was a aovel pleasure trip, bat the dangers and inosavenleneee accompanying it made the beauties and grandeur of the scenery -he more appreoated. Only two of that company remaia. and thry were on the platform laat night the lecturer snd ex -Governor Brosa. Tbe latter Introduced air.

WASTE OF WATERS. A Portion of the Twelfth "Ward Completely Submerged. Pooplo Paddling; Around In Tuba aad Talking Aboat Their Aldormen. Complaints, many and lust, hav beea made of late touching tho disgraceful stats ot the streets down town. Ia all conscience Bake they bave bora and are bad enough, and th fact that If the municipal authorities did their duty tha nuisance could be considerably modified.

If sot entirely abated, only aggravates the matter. Bnt there are perhaps some eitiseas who will be sur- pri ad to hear that the abomination of desolation, so to speak, visible about ths heart ot the city la not a circumstance to what exists la some portions of the residence district. From information received, a reporter for Tn Ismca Ockax yesterday took a trip to th Twelfth Ward. He bad beea told be would find some beleaguered families, bouses surrounded with water, and all that sort of thing. Mentally, he concluded the matter was ever- drawn; bnt on returning, wet, dirty, aad half- frozen, he bad changed his mind, aad Inquired whether he shonld write up the affair as a story of the Arctlo regions or a tale of the Great Dismal Swamp.

He waa Instructed to deal with facts nasty, disagreeable facts, and here they are: It was shortly before o'clock wbea th scribe dropped off a Madison street ear at Western had been vaguely referred to a dis trict between Campbell avenue aad the railroad tracks. Going wsst to Campbell avenue, be struck south ou that thoroughfare, and leisurely proceeded past Monro. Adams, Jackson, and Van Huron streets, without striking anything of interest. True, a descent to tb knee in a mass of snowy slush about th consistency of Roman punch warranted the explorer la taking a reef la his panta. othkb xnsoDia.

Then be rescued a small child or two, the offspring apparently of partlea residing thereabouts, who by incautlon.lv stepping or tumbling off the sidewalk san to their eara la soft snow. Further, some trifling diversion waa afforded by seeing ladiea In an attempt to cross tbe road lose a rubber overshoe, and with puckered mouth aud muttered gentle words recover tbem and hop around on one foot during tbe procewa of reattachment. These things were but trifles, and the scribe softly admitted to himself that the heated Imagination of some short-tempered resident had beea responsible for hla being sent oa tbe tourney. Leaving Van Bursa, be went modi' tatively and eold-footedly to Congress street. and then determined to go weat on that thoroughfare.

He did. The only human being visible was a eomfortab e-looklng gentleman. He bad a Cardigan Jacket ou hi. back, a Dine In hla mouth, a smile on his face, and a Bjamde la hi. band.

Tbe explorer eras uncertain at first whether he waa digging for treasure or endeavoring to undermine a big snowbank at the foot of which he was picking; He waa spoken with: "Wbat will happen around here when all this melts?" ell. we are la bopes It will run off grad ually." Suppose It runs off suddenly? Tok here. now. don't you suggest anything like that. We are living on hope." Anybody around here worse off than yon are? COULD IT Bk WOBRE? A burst of hearty laughter preceded the newer, wbich came in this anape: Anybody worse off? Ain't beea around here pinch eb? Go look over there." and the eiticen pointed due west.

The line followed and in a moment the end of Conrresa street waa reached. Tbe principal things visible at that point was a small embank ment surmounted bv tne tracks or tne v. r. snd C. M.

4 St P. Railroad tracks, and the condition of the back yard of the corner reet- ence. Tbat yard bad evidently a abort while before ben Oiled wltu a glorious sheet of ice. Out upon tbat glorious shet of ice the thrifty housewife bad skated, connected ber lines, affixed her clothes props and nung out the week's was to dry la the frosty air. But the moon bad brougut a thaw, and in place of ice there wae about a foot of water ia that yard.

There were th clothes (ot the usual interesting and assorted patterns) waving in tbe breexe. and there waa tbe house wife aitttng at tne back window watching them and wondering how should get out to rescue them. Iesvinr the solving the problem to the proper authorities, the scribe determined to keep on going west. Taking anotaer reef over hia boots, be waded through a email lake. and.

after waiting for a freight train to pass, took aion of the railroad track. A look westward showed everything waa water with residences standing out of it. It looked like a section of Holland after the bursting of a dyke; in looked like a noe field in China In the rainy season: It looked like anything. Following the track south to Harrison atreet. and then looking sooth aad west.

Bought could be seen but water. WHO UTt B017NP ABOUT. A group of boys stood viewing the desolate scene and thev were chatted with: "Who Uvea In that house?" (One with about a oouole of feet of water round 1U. "Mr. Stewart and Mr.

Scott." "And In that one?" "Mr. Swan; he's a conductor on the railway." "And the other?" Mr. Willard." "How do thry get get tn and out tbe houses?" "Oh tney walk through tbe water, except the women folks, and tbey stay in until It gets dry." Here a youthful scion of one of the beleaguered houses came puddling over to tbe track embangment la a wash-tub, and wanted the reporter to go back with biro, and "have a look at the base ment." Tbe reporter believes he waa bora to be drowned, and so refused. Then the grocery maa arrived, aud in crossing the 1 OO yards or so ot what in summer is no aooot a oeauuzui oase ball ground, he gave bis horse a line bath, waahed off the wagon, and no doubt spoilt a few package of groceries. The committee of rutnre presidents on tne track (it ia dignified by the name of Rockwell atreet) gave it aa their opinion that the flooding of the residences was caused partly by the rail road companies dumping snow on the track, and parti bv tha overflow of the miniature lake in Central Park, which was supplied by a recently dng artesian well.

Thinking he had seen enough, and fearing that by descending into tbe flood and wading ont to the houses he might cause the tide to rise and Invade other dwellings, the reporter turned hla back oa the scene and went back to where he had lef. the happv cltiaenr digging. He was still at It and opened tbe conversation: xo irvrxu thb cauaa "Did you see UV "I did." "Wbat do yon think ot It?" "It a pretty bad. Te.l me what Is ths cause of itr -n Bearers, for one thing: ana it's neipea oy the railroad company dumping snow alone the track." "What forr" "Whv. they carry It from the depots and down town tracks, bring It out here, aad dump it; all those pile you see along there were piled up' last Friday, Saturday, and Sunday." "What are you digging air "Digging a trennh to try and keep the water ont ot my basement.

All the bouses along here bave got water I in: it's soor. and stinks awfuL tell yon. 11 a shame. 1 aerw waa one maa came home from work laat nignt ana tuea worked all night long keeping out the water." "Well. wher.

a the sewer I "We have got no sewer, and no ditch even." -Well, why aot?" I Wall, tbe trne reason is. we cannot afford to pay the Aldermen for getting one put in for us. There has beea talk of putting on down in thia district for a year or mors past, put we know, and bars been told, we must 'oome dowa it we want a sewer. Many arouna nere live ap to what tbey earn, and cannot afford to give anything, aud ao dont say moch about it, but others are holding meetings oooaaiouauy ua com plaining, a The eitlsen waa left with the assurance that the fact tbat that portion of the ward was sower- less should be remembered.

The committee had requested Mr. Parsons to attend their meeting ou Sunday last. The Committee oa a rermanens or Keguiar Trades' Union Hall reported that they had found aome difficulty lu makrlng progress to ward a securing their object. Tbe committee stated that they believed it best to have the name ot th committee changed to inac ox trustees, and to en large the committee. It waa moved that tho report be received.

Carried. a motion waa made tbat tbe committee be en larged ao aa to be composed of one member from eaoh union, aad that tbe name of the committee be changed to tha of The Board of Trustees. Carried.

Numerous bills-were audited aad ordered paid. Tb meeting thea adjourned to next Thursday evening, THE CORONER'S WORK. A MjstBiluas Case Sudden Death Which Appears Worthy of Searching The Coronor was called yesterday to examine into tho sadden and apparently mysterious death at aa early boar in tbe morning of a serv- ant girl named Ellen Stack, fibe was em ployed In the family of Mr. la. Bowler, No.

472 Marahfield avenue, and for several days pre vious to her death, had complained of feeling unwelL The girl want ont Tuesday evening, and on her return said shs had beea vaccinated. She said shs bad been to Dr. Bee be, wbo prescribed soms pills for hsr illness. About 1 o'clock Mr. Bowler waa aroused by groans ia the girl's room.

and going downstairs he found her la convul" ions and calling for Ho gave he to water, aad Immediately summoned Dr. Fraxer, but the girl was dead before he I rivea. The eirenmatanoes were certainly sus picious, aad ia the afternoon Dr. Bluthardt made a post mortem examination of tbe re mains. It was found that tbs girl had not been poisoned, nor la any way maltreated.

Death waa caused by a eollapse. resulting from spaa modio colie. Tbe girl was highly respected among those who knew her, and possibly what added considerable to the suspicions of ber friends was that instead of Dr. Bee be having vaooinatea ner, or given her the pills, it waa Dr. Cream.

Her reason for Baying shs had been to Dr. Bee be is explained by a warning she got from Mrs. Bowler to have nothing to do with Dr. Cream. Tbe girl had evidently aala Dr.

Bee be instead of Dr. Cream, rather than diaplease ber mistress. Dr. Cream thinks it strange that the girl should bare died within a few hours after he prescribed for her.anJ proposes to have more than a supernoia! examinationg. He says the girl had every symptom of the early stages of small-pox except ths eruptions, when he prescribed tor her, and tha medlclns be gave her waa not such as would cause convul sons or spasms.

He regarded the girl's death symptoms aa those of poisoning, and bis first step after notifying the Coroner was to see If a mistake had not been made In putting np the prescripUona, The medicine. however, seems to have disappeared aad cannot oe louna, eoane uoetor save, ine prescriptions were put up by rank F-ayatt, druggist at the corner of Throop aud Madison streets. One wss in a bottle, sad contained twelve doses to be takea three times a day and at bed-time. The prescription called for 2 drama of dilated nltro-muriatic acid, an ounce of fluid extract dandelion, 1 ounoea of sirup of lemon, and water to make a alx-ounee mixture. The other medicine waa to be made up in powders, to be taken at bed-time, and to be followed by Seldlets powder In tbe morning.

Tbe powder prescription called tor 79 frra ins of calomel and 7 grains of white sugar. They were ordered to be closed in capsules. Dr. Cream aaya he ia determined to find out what baa became of the medicines, and wants tbs Coroner to hold aa inquest. Th medicine he thinks ought to be anaiyjigd.

I will seod it to you, I hav never tried it, not having ocoasioa to in my owa family, but wUl jive tt to you Just as I got it from ths clipping: "A correspondent of the Stockton, Herald, gives tae following valuable recipe, which ia pronounced a sure panacea for that most malignant of diseases, small-pox, as well as ths scarlet fever, for both of which it is a certain remedy. I herewith append a racioe which haa been used. to my knowledge, la hundreds of cases. It will prevent or cure the small-pox.

When Janner discovered oow-pox, the world of science hurled aa avalanche of fame upon his head; bat when the most scientific school of medicine in the world that of Paria nnbllahea this recoie as panacea lor small-pox It ts passed unheeded; it is aa unfail ing as faith, and conquers tn every instance, at Is harmless when taken by a well person, it will also cure scarlet fever; here is the recipe as I have used it sad cured my children of scarlet fever: here it is as I have need it to cure the amall-pox. when learned physicians said tbe patient must die: Sulphate of sine, one gram; half a teasouonfnl of sugar; mix with a table- spoonful of water. When thorougniy mixed, eaa tour ounces of water. Take a spoonful every hour.

Either diseases will disappear in twelve hours. For a child, smallor doses according to are. If counties would compel physiciana to use this, there would be no need of peat-houses.
