An Armless Nimrod. An armless Nimrod is the wonder of the people and the envy of all the sportsmen of Bucks County, Penn. Be is John Simon, f Zion Hill, and his prowess is some. ,hing marvelous. Simon’s arms were ground off shove the elbows in machinery alfew years ago, but: his love of hunting sinurred his ingenuity, and he overcame his seeming insurmountable obstacle. He straps his single-barrel breech-loadinr.y ham- m_érless gun to his right arm. and when he sights game he swings the piece over the stump of his left arm, takes quick aim and fires, generally with telling etfem.‘ His mode of loading is as unique as his shoot- ing. He carries his shells in his hat, and when he wants one, bows low, drops his hat on the ground, pulls out she empty shell with his teesh, and in a. similar man- ner loads. ~Lhen pushing his head into his hat. to recover his head. Despite his afflic- tion, Simon has done some of the besL shooting in Bucks County the pass: yexr, his record standing : 16 opossums, 5 pheas- ants, 5 dozen hlackbirds, 37 rabbits and ‘21 quails. Mrs. Philip Sheriden is said to be almost the only widow of a. great war chief who has absolutely declined purses, funds and any such testimonials after his death, and to have resoluiely opposed all ofieta from military societies and others who wished to erect his monument. By a. recent; law New York policemen have their pay raised $200. The ealaries oi the policemen in the first grade shall not be less than $1,400 ayear; in the second grade, $1,300; the third grade. $1,240: the fourth grade, $1,150, and the fifth grade, $1,000. Fifty of the older Chicago musicians have purchased the uniforms, instruments and accoutrements of the famous infantry band that, attracted so much attention in the German village during the World's Fair and have organized as the German Military Band of Chicago. Each other. He observes Lhat these cases and others like them may be coincidences, as might happen when we consm‘er the enormous mumber of deaths which occur annually in Europe from cancer. They may, however, point: to a. more specific origin of the disease. No one imagines that cancer is directly contagious. It is poesil‘le, how- ever, in epidemic cases. that there may be some condition of earth or water common to all the individuals attacked, in which the organism, if such there be, may pass a. par: of its existence. Mr. Shattock, in the Morton lecture before the Royal College of Surgeons,called attention to the fact that cancer, like con- sumption, may frequently show itself in certain houses. The British Medical Journal publishes an article by Mr. D’Arcy Power: in which he givesa number of instances of this coincidence. In each instance a series of cases Occurred in acertain house amongst persons who were not related by blood to Cancer Homes and Their Victims J. H. Hudlum is dead and the Chicago board of trade is without ujanitor. Bright’ disease carried off the old man. who for thirty-nine years has had charge of the cleaning department of the great Chicago exchange. No new man will be quite the janitor that Hudlum was. He died a. rich man. He left a. large family that will divide up $100, 000, the fortune that the old janitor had amassed. During the years he took care of the floor and tributary roomi= he managed to lay up this fortune from his wages. Among other little things of good fortune that fell to him in the Way of crumbs Were the sweepings of the floor. The sweepinga or' the baard of trade are valuable. Merchants buying and selling wheat corn and oats for spot, like real traders who cart away their purchases after Acquisition, are generous in handling of the samples. Every day they pass through their hands large lots of grain. After blowing on it and flattening it out on their bands, they throw I't away. Hudlum gathered it up and sold it to small dealers for chicken feed. The Rev. Dr. Teal was the finest look- ing clergyman in Elizabeth and very popular. His sudden death was quite a. shock to the community. He leaves a daugh- ter and four sons. Since last November, when his {usher died. five members of the iamin have passed away. All these sorr3ws combined to break the heart of a. strong. robust-looking man, and while sitting an the breakfast. table shortly after his youngest child’s death, the Rev. Dr. Teal collapsed and fell forward from his chair and almost instantly expired. The clergyman was fiftyâ€"six years old and a. graduate of Yale College and Union Theological Seminary.‘ Every day for years Rev. Dr. Teal could be seen wheeling the youthful invalid around the streets of Elizabeth in acarriage, and, while he knew she was crippled for life with a spinal affection, his solicitude for her care never flagged. The Rev. Dr. Teal lost his second wife nine years ago. He had married two sisters. and was left with seven young children to look after,aud last Monday his eldest daughter, Florence, seventeen years old, died from consump- tion, after her return from the Catskills. She was buried in the family plot at Rhinebeck \Vednesday. The father felt this blow the more from the fact that his young- est daughter was failing rapidly, and the physicians informed him that she could not live much longer. To add to his affliction one of his sons came home Friday and informed his father that he would have to go no Colorado by the advice of his physi- cxan, as his lungs were affected. Tho Rev. Dr. John w. Teal. Who Haul [as 'l'wo (glulllren in :1 weckfixpired m Ill-1 nrc‘ st Table Rev. .~n \V. Teal. D. 1)., for almost eight, year; pastor of the Westminster Presbyterian Church, in Elizabeth, New Jersey, died on Saturday morning of a broken heart, so his physicians say,1ess than two hours after the passing away of hi twelve-year-old invalid daughter, Mabel, o whom he was mosh fond.

The Directors have with deep regret to refer to the removal by death of Mr. Henry Covert. for many years one of their colleagues. The vacancy thus caused has been fined by the election of Mr. Charles Stuart, of Port, Hupe. In a. previous report reference was mude to the fact that a suitable location for a. banking office in Montreal had been pur- chased. The Directors have now pleasure in informing you that the Bank occupied their new premises in May of this year. The building provides the Bank with eom~ modions and attractive offices in that, city, and will, it is believed, prove a satisfactory investment. This balance would have permitted an adjition being made to the Rest, but, in view of the prevailing depression and lim- certainby, your Directors have deemed it advisable Lo leave the amount at. the credit; of Profit. and Loss Account, and are con- vinced that a cautious policy is in the best interests of the Stockholders.
