One of the most striking illustrations of modern speculation is found in the re cent action brought in New York by Artemus Holmes (himself a lawver) against J. B. Chaffee and others fo: fraud. One of Chatiee’s associates ad vised Ilolmes to invest ina mining com-

made inquiry of Chaffee concerning the mine and was assured in the highest terms. Holmes thereupon purchased shares to the amount of $13,000, all of which was sunk and he then brought suit for fraud. No defence was made

{the verdict was for principal and ior the interest amounting to $15,000. This Chaffee was estimated a million- aire only « year ago and U. 8. Grant, ir., was considered a lucky fortune

a. e A Poisonous Sherry.

The medical papers of England are making an outery over a new species of unsuspected poison, which they assert is making sad havoc with the stomachs, if not the lives of Eoglishmen. The article complained of is a cheap grade of so called sherry, which is manufac- tured at Hamborg,and exported through Holland to England in enormous quan- tities. Eminent physicians declare over their own signatures that this so called wine is 9 pure artificial product. They say that for many years the true sherry of commerce has been fortified at Zerez and elswhere in Spain, with what is known as “Dutch spirit” and which is simply alcohol distilled from potatoes and sent from Holland teSpain. They allege that now thrifty burghers of Holland and Germany have hit upon a method of utilizing Dutch spirit at heme and are producing wine without uny aid from grapes of any sort. The stuff complained of is, the doctors say, composed of nothing but alcobol,sugar, water, and common table salt.
