GOSSIPPY NOTES
LOCAL PERSONALS.
A Colored Roust-a-bout Drowned.
—Bob Lee, a colored roust-a-b ut on board
the steamer Milton n. Smith, was drown
ed at the wharf in this city about 8 o’clock
last night. A number of colored employes
of the boat decided to go in bathing. Lee
was the first to jump from the lower deck
of the boat into the river, lie struck out
down stream, and when last seen by his
companions was just disappearing behind
the wheel of the boat. Lee was soon
missed by his companions and a search
instituted, but the body could not be
found.
The officers were notified, but no cir
cumstances connected with the affair in
dicated that there had been foul play.
Bob Lee was a short, thick-set negro,
about twenty years old. lie was a stranger
in Columbus and had made only two trips
on the Smith. In the language of a fellow
workman, lie was “the goodest hearted
fellow on the steamboat.” Lee told some
of the darkies on the boat that he walked
from his home to Columbus and that it
took him three weeks to get here. He did
not say where lie came from, but conveyed
the impression that he lived a long dis
tance from Columbus.
Chief Beard and Officer Wise took
charge of the clothing of the unfortunate
man and secured the names ot the darkies
who went in bathing with him. So far as
could be learned, the drowned man lias no
relatives in Columbus.
Their First Ride.—A lady and her
three children came in on the Columbus
and lioine road from Greenville yesterday
morning, all throe of whom appeared to be

lady has lived in Meriwether county all her
life, and is very intelligent. She had of
ten seen trains, but took her first ride on
one yesterday, coming to Columbus to
join her husband, who is now located
here. Capt. Walter DuBose, the genial
conductor, showed the lady and her three
children every attention on the trip, and
lessened their uneasiness considerably by
his pleasant and reassuring maimers.

THE TORONTO MAIL ASKS FOR A PRAC
TICAL REPRESENTATIVE AT
WASHINGTON.
Top.onto, Ont., July 31.—Referring to
Canadian representation .at Washington
the Mail says:
“It is very possible that in a few years
the movement to give us a permanent
official representation abroad will
take a practical form. We are
beginn ng to feel the want of
agents to look after our interests wherever
we can do any business. But while lob
byists could not be sent to Washington by
Canada we might have an official there to
assist the British Ambassador whenever
Canadian questions arise. Sir Charles Tup-
per performed the duty of such an official,
during the Behring Sea discussion. Our
greater need in the way of outside officials,
however, lies in the direction of business
agents. If we had such officers to point
us to new openings for trade or to warn
our business men against mistakes which
destroy trade, we would find their labors
very profitable to us. We do not want
gorgeous plenipotentiaries in foreign capi
tals, but plain men with an eye to busi
ness.”
$234,000 SPENT IN THREE YEARS.
IIOW A YOUNG MARRIED COUPLE
“WHOOPED IT UP” AT BOSTON.
Boston, July 31.—Mrs. Kate II. An
drews, who has applied here for separate
support from her husband, Charles An
drews, son of one of the proprietors of the
Boston Herald, says that her husband
was nineteen when they were married
three years ago; that his father gave him
a furnished house and $200,000 in cash,
and the money is all gone aud her hus
band is $34,000 in debt. She says her hus
band is jealous and gets drunk, and lie re
plies that she also gets drunk and flirts,
and that he spent $200,000 in “society and
bail business ventures.” Mrs. Andrews is
a daughter of Medical Director Jackson, of
the navy.
A PARISIAN SUICIDE ENDS A SWINDLING
CAREER.
Parts, July 31.—Paris is still kept in
terested in the case of the suicides of the
Rue d’Avron. Leon Ilaycm was a draughts
man and unable to obtain work, and see
ing himself on the point of being evicted
for non-payment of rent he resolved with
his wife that they and their six children
should die by charcoal suffocation. The
wife was always described as a Mexican.
The police today have made a startling
discovery in the case, about which from
the start they have had a suspicion, that
Ilayem was only an assumed name. It
now turns out that the woman is an Amer
ican by birth, and her husband’s real
name is Deverth. He lived four years ago
in the Rue Poncelot. lie was a draughts
man and made a poor living by painting
menu cards.
He had a large family and received
much charity. One day his wife told the
police that her husband had disappeared;
that he had been attacked by robbers, ali
his money stolen and his body had been
thrown into the Seine. The pretended
widow went to live in the Rue Taiti, and,
being in an interesting condition, she re
ceived more charity than ever. Soon the
neighbors saw a man coming around re
sembling Deverth very much, but clean
shaven, instead of wearing a full beard, as
before.
About this time two American ladies
living in Paris paid the return fare of an
entire family to New York. The people
left the locality, but they did not go to
America. Only today was the discovery
made that Hayem and Deverth are one
and the same. lie changed his name in
order to get further charity without recog
nition.
MR. NORDHOFF RETIRES.
Washington, July 31.— Mr. Charles
Nordhoff, who for the last sixteen years
has been the editorial representative of the
New York Herald here, will retire from
active newspaper work with the present
session of Congress. He goes to Lower
California to make his future home. With
characteristic liberality, Mr. James Gordon
Bennett, the editor and owner of the
Herald, put Mr. Nordhoff on the nerald’s
retired list for life, on half pay, giving him
a full year’s salary in advance.

TRYING TO PROVE HER INSANE.
AN ALLEGED CONSPIRACY BY A
WEALTHY YOUNG WIDOW’S BROTHERS.
St. Louis, July 31.—Something of a
sensation was created today by the publi
cation of an alleged attempt by relatives
to imprison a young lady. Mrs. Hulda
Blenenstock, a brilliant young widow, and
very prominent in the best Hebrew circles,
is the heroine of the affair. Her brothers
are members of the firm S. Blenenstock
& Sons, the largest wool handling concern
here.
According to Mrs. Blenenstock’s story,
her marriage to a consin, in opposition to
the wishes of her brothers, angered the
latter so that they have been conspiring
against her ever since her husband’s death,
some four months ago. She says that on
Thursday last three physicians endeavored
to induce her to go to a private asylum.
She insists that her family are try ing to
get her fortune. Her relatives scont the
idea, and cite numerous indications of un
soundness of mind on the young lady’s
part. _
A LEPER IN THE STREETS OF NEW YORK.

from the symptoms developed, the man
was declared to be a leper. He was at once

That “Tired Feeling.”
The newspapers are having a good deal of fun
nowadays over that "tired feeling,” so much
spoken of in medical advertisements, in connec
tion with the ill health of females. It may he a
source of hilarity to witty paragraphers, but not
so to suffering women, who, by overwork, and a
disregard of the laws of health, have lapsed into
a condition bordering on invalidism. What most
women need is to be relieved of some of tiie slav
ish work that is piled on them, and a free, but
judicious use of strengthening tonics, such as P.
P. P. (Prickly Ash, Poke Root and Potassium),
the greatest blood purifier and iuvigorator in use.
Superb as a builder up of women, bringing back
lost energy to the body and color to faded cheeks,
restoring the appetite, aud thus renewing in her
that healthy vitality long lost. P. P. P. cures all
blood diseases, such as Rheumatism, Syphilis,
Gout, Scrofula, and all ulcerous affections, even
vanquishing that melancholy memory of man,
Dyspepsia. All druggists sell it.
I NEVER DRINK
Water. Kase why I’m a man of iron and my skin

the 12 doz. uon-rustiDle brass gallis buttons 1 sell

to sow ’em ou for yourself, you had better buy
you a box of my pateut thumb snap briches but

to bristle up to me aud say you can do your own

soweth, that shall he also rip.” Which fact X

myself. But, uot changing the subject at all, do
you remember them ladies’ hats I ra sed such a
