Meade Blind by Shock. 4 MISHAP TO MR. KIRKMAN DUE INDIRECTLY TO His WIFE'S ATTACK OF LOCKJAW.

(New York Sun.)

Mrs. Kirkman, of Little Neck, L. 1., ran a tack under one of her tinger nails while taking up carpets last fall. The “wound was painful, but it soon healed and was forgotten. A few Sundays ago, while seated at the organ singing, she had an at- tack of lockjaw. Her mouth remained partly open for more than a week, during which time she lived on liquid food only. When Mrs. Kirkman was pronounced out of danger, her husband, Capt. Frederick Kirkman, who has a wholesale oyster busi- ness at the fvot of West Tenth Street in this city, and who had stayed at home dur- ing Mrs. Kirkman’s illness, started for New York. When he got to his office he found a telegram awaiting him from his brother, telling him to return home imme- diately. Upon reading the message he was seized with dizziness. '

He started immediately for the ferry. Qn his way there his sight began to fail. He stopped at the house of a relative on the way, and was so blind that he couldn't tind the door, aud had to be led in. From there he was taken back te his home in Little Neck, where he found there was no ogcasion for alarm, as his wife was doing well. A film gathered over his eyes, and for some time he was totally blind. He was brought to this city for treatment, and the physicians agreed that his blindness was caused by shock. Finally his sight began to return slowly, until now it is per- fectly restored.

Wooster, Ohiv, March 15.—-A_ remark- able recovery from hydrophobia has just eceurred in this county. The patient was an li-year-old son of James Barclay. The boy was bitten by the family dog that later proved to be mad. Six weeks ago the boy became sick, and Lis trouble proved to be hydrophobia. The physicians looked upon rabic poison as a self-limiting infection, and set about to bridge the case over the active period of the poison.

Large doses of aconite were given to blunt the sensuary nerves of the throat and wssophagus, hydrate of chloral to obviate restlessness and produce sleep, and salic- vlate of soda to counteract the rabic poison if it depended on a ferment for its action. The paroxysms grew less frequent, and it is now two weeks since the patient experi- enced the last one. He sits up in bed, his voice has regained its naturel sound, and the physicians pronounce him out of danger.

A Lively Discussion

ON THE PARNELL-" TIMES” CASE.

Lonpon, March 21.

In the House of Commons, on the vote on Baltour’s salary, Mr. Morley severely criticized the Government’s action of carry- ing on a “furtive and clandestine battle behind their opponent’s backs.”

Bradlaugh moved that Balfour’s salary be reduced by £500.,

Rejected— 252 to 211.

Morley adduced a mass of details respect- ing the witnesses for the Times with a view to destroying the Government’s professions of neutrality. These details .were mainly drawn from facts elicted by daily question- ing in Parliament.

Balfour had said he had not followed the proceedings of the Parnell Commission with much interest, and that was surpris- ing. One would have expected that the ministry who fired the train would have cause enough to note the result of the ex- plosion. With regard to the proposed vote of censure, it 1s irrational to propose it now. Irish disclosures were made daily, and the end would come in good time. Bual- four, amid continued Opposition laughter, described the charge that the Govt. were connected with the Times through Houston and Pigott,as a scandalous unfounded libel.

The Opposition, he said, revelled in libel while affecting to regard it as the most shocking of crimes. He had charged

Houston with having acted in complicating’ with Pigott, but he had declined to ex- amine Houston when invited. He thought it more decorous for gentlemen opposite to refrain from comments on the subject, for asking how it was that witnesses were intimidated. Balfour was called to order by the Chairman. Continuing, he said the Government volunteered no information for the purposes of the Commission, but is willmg to give it to the other side when requested.

Sir William Vernon Harcourt said Bal- four misapprehended Morley’s case. The fact that Irish Catholics were subpoened did not make it necessary for them to re- main months in !:ondon unless performing distinct services forthe Times. The speaker raised a laugh by showing how the state- ments of Mathews and Balfour conflicted.

Bradlaugh said that, so tar from being impartial, the Government withheld from persons accused matters material to their defence. Balfour lauded the authorities with allowing Pigutt to escape after he had confessed forgery.

T. P. O'Connor was called to order for charging Lord Salisbury and Balfoar with trying to galvanize the Parnell forgeries into life again. O’Connor twice refused to withdraw his remark as far as it concerned Lord Salisbury, amid the approving cries of his colleagues.

The Chairman appealed to the members of both sides to assist in keeping order; but he did$not further insist upon the with- drawal of O’Connors remark.

O'Connor charged that the Times was lequally guilty in allowing Pigott to es- eape after his confession of forgery.

Wim. Redmond, Naticnalist, was called to order several times, and the Chairman finally warned him against further unruly conduct.

Beauty

Is desired and admired by all. Among the things which may best be done to enhance personal beauty is the daily use of Ayer’s Hair Vigor. No matter what the color of the hair, this prepa- ration gives it a lus- tre and pliancy that adds greatly to its charm. Should the hair be thin, harsh, dry, or turning gray, Ayer’s Hair Vigor

will restore’ the color, bring out a new growth, and render the old soft and shiny. For keeping the scalp clean, cool, and

healthy, there is no better preparation in the market.

“T am free to confess that a trial of

. Ayer’s Hair Vigor has convinced me

that it is a genuine article. Its use has

not only caused the hair of my wife and daughter to be

Abundant and Glossy,

but it has given my rather stunted mus- tache a respectable length and appear- ance.’”’—R. Britton, Oakland, Ohio.

“My hair was coming ont (without any assistance from my wife, either). I tried Ayer’s Hair Vigor, using only one bottle, and I now have as tine @ head of hair as any one could wish for,” —R. T. Schmittou, Dickson, Tenn,

‘*T have used Ayer’s Hair Vigor in my family for a number of years, and re- gard it as the best hair preparation I know of. It keeps the scalp clean, the hair soft and lively, and preserves the original color. My wife has used it for a long time with most satisfactory re- sults.’”’— Benjami:. M. Johnson, M. D., Thomas Hill, Mo.

‘My hair was becoming harsh and dry, but after using half a bottle of Ayer’s Hair Vigor it grew black and ylossy. I cannot express the joy and gratitude I feel.’’— Mabei C. Hardy, Delavan, Ill.
