His condition soon became critical and during tho afternoon he sank rapidly and then came the end. He died in great agony. The deathbed scene was extremely touching.

At intervals, strong doses of chloroform were and bath rooms, and to day the following notice was posted in each of the coat rooms Members can have, their corns, bunions, tn John H. Douglass, formerly a member ot assembly and a well known figure In the Democratic politics of this county, was removed to an asylum last evening, a sufferer from melancholia. Mr. Douglass was more active on the social side of politics than its turmoil and hard work. He always lived In the Seventeenth ward and was a member of the assembly In 187S and 1879.

He served with the Seventy first regiment during the war and on his return engaged in the brokerage business, from which he drifted into politics. Mr. Douglass was a very companionable man. He made friends easily and for the most part kept them. He was on intimate terms with party leaders Tor the past twenty years.

They sought him for his good fellowship and he never proved a dull companion. Mr. Douglass, after leaving the assembly, became connected with the senate finance with the inspectors and commanding oltlcers this morning. He waited until all the captains had reached headquarters and then summoned them into Superintendent McKelvey's private office, 'l'hcn he outlined a policy of severity with wrongdoers on the force during the next two years. The captains ttood in a circle around the superintendent's desk, while Mr.

Welles, with a stern look on his face, indicated at the outset that there was entirely too much tippling among the members of the force. "Youareall aware." he said, "that his honor the mayor, has seen fit to reappoint me as commissioner for the next two years. Xow I want to see an improvement in the force lie fore the two years pass.

Even when he was employed as an inspector on the works down at the Shlnnecock canal, he was as careful in dress as when he moved in urban circles. He held that position for several years and might have held it yet (for the work seems to be everlasting), had there not been a change in the state administration.

Mrs. Hannah Goldman, wife of Elias Goldman, a tailor living at 234 Thatford avenue, near Belmont, has been adjudged of unsound mind by the physician attached to the charities department, and will be committed to an asylum. A week ago a young man.

who said lie was her son, visited Chief Clerk Short of the charities department and asked that an examination into her mental condition be made. Ho said his mother had lately gone insane because of anxiety for her husband's safety growing out of the recent tailors' strike. Mr. Goldman early in January employed a non union workman and was waylaid on the way home by six strikers and terribly beaten. He was punched and kicked and left in the street.

The next day he went to Judge Harriman's court and secured warrants for the arrest of his assailants. They were arrested but discharged next day in court because Goldman arrived ton minutes after the tinio set for the calling of the case. Upon their discharge they turned about and had Goldman arrested for perjury and he was immediately arraigned and held in 81.000 for examination. Goldman is now under bail. His wife became greatly alarmed on his account and her anxiety has at last unhinged her mind.

There are at present tional exhibitions. In 1S5G he contributed to the Academy exhibition a picture entitled, "The Triumph of Music," and from that time on his contributions to art have been numerous. Mr. Leighton was elected an associate of the Royal academy in 1854 and an aca demlcan In 1S59. He was chosen president of the Royal academy in 187S and was short yl afterward knighted.

He was nominated an officer of the Legion of Honor the same year and completed a large fresco at the South Kensington museum, "The Industrial Arts Applied to War." He was created an honorary LL.D. of Cambridge in 1879 and in twelve convicts whose condition makes it ex THE ALTRUIST SOCIAL. pedient to remove them to such a ward.

Then Superintendent Mc Kelvey took the captains in hand and gave them a scolding, too.

He told them, to begin with, that the practice of sending inexperienced men to court with important prisoners must be stopped; and called attention to the fact that within a few weeks there had been instances called to his attention wherein policemen had been bulldozed 'by clerks in the police courts because the officers had not (been properly informed of their rights. "I want the captains to take a personal interest in the cases. Don't send a raw officer to court with an important prisoner. Go there yourself." the superintendent proceeded, "and personally see that a proper charge is made out. I have been in communication rwith the district attorney on this subject and he is ready to appear when court clerks refuse to do their duty.

I want ycu to pay special attention to this. "There is ano thr thing I desire to say to you," continued the superintendent. "Sergeants in some eases are not dcing their full duty. They are becoming careless, and when you notice that there is any lapse of duty ered by a scarii vail, lie was accompanied oy acolytes carrying lighted candles, the chanters, and assistant, priests. The bishop took the vessel containing the relics and the procession returned to the main altar, where the relics were placed on the table prepared tor them until the bishop had anointed the sepulchre with chrism, after which they wore placed therein, incensed and the cover fitted or.

with the sacred cement. Tho altar was then incensed, after which it was blessed with holy oil and oil of chrism in the form of rive crosses, the oil being later rubbed over the entire surface of the altar. After sprinkling with holy water and anointing the base and corners and incensing the altar table was cleaned and the bishop, having removed the oil from his lingers, blessed tne altar cloths, vestments ami ornaments. This done, the bishop turned to the congregation, made a brief address relative to the ceremony of the consecration and the benedis to be gained by those in attendance and retired to the sacristy.
