NEW YORK, March 18.—Charles Foster, secretary of the treasury, who arrived at quarantine on the North German Lloyd steamer Spree, was broug t up the bay at 7' a. m. on board the steamer Laura M. Starin. The tug Manhattan spent the night beside the steamer. It carried the following friends of the secretary: Frank Sperry, Fred S. Stocks, chief clerk of the United States treasury department: W. B. Howell and R. J. Wynne, private secretary of Mr. Foster. Howard Carroll came down on the Starin. All boarded the Spree and welcomed Mr. Foster and his party, which consisted of W. T. McLennan, cf the treasury department; L. H. Smith, a friend of the secretary, and Dr. Hamilton, of the United States Marine hospital. The party took carriages to the Fifth Avenue hotel. Secretary Foster said he was improved in health and had eaten and slept well during the voyage. Wednesday he fell on the deck of the Spree and blackedjhis eye. His friend, L. H. Smith, also got a fall. About 10 o’clock O’Donovan Rossa came to the Fifth Avenue hotel to see Secretary Foster. He wanted the secretary to ex- plain what he meant by speaking of “flan- nel mouthed” or “clam mouthed Irishmen.” Rossa failed to see Mr. Foster. He wore a broad brimmed hat and carried a roll of manuscript in his hand. The manuscript he refused to show to any one. He said that he was determined to get the truth about the flannel mouthed allegation from the secretary’s lips. O’Donovan’s countenance was so clouded that Barney Biglin tried to relieve the situ- publican version of the episode. He said that the epithet was applied by an English man in a conversation with Mr. Foster, and that Mr. Foster said in reply, “From the people you call flannel mouthed we get some of our best citizens.” Mr. Biglin’s amiable effort only incensedthe ire of Rossa. ' The Secretary’s Version. TO a. representative of the United Press the secretary made the following state- ment in reference to his trip and more es- pecially to the the terms “clam mouthed” and “flannel mouthed” Irishmen, alleged to have been uttered by him in an interview on the other side: I certainlymade use of no such terms as are imputed to me, or any word derogatory to the Irish race. Neither did I have an in— terview with any one for publication. The story, I imagine, grew out of a conversation I had in my room with a number of friends and callers. . The subject of immigration, which is one of great interest to English- men just now, was being discussed. In speaking of the character of the immi- gration coming to our shores, I incidentally touched upon the ease with which the Irish children dissimulated themselves from the characteristics of their parents when they arrived here and became thoroughly Amer- icanized. Even among the commonest classes of Irish immigrants was this notice- able. The same, I remarked, could be said of the German immigrants, who soon be- came imbued with American ideas. This was in contrast to the Norwegian and Dan- ish people from the south of Europe, who were slower in assimilation, and who main- tained the characteristics of their national- ity for a longer period.

The account of the girl who laughed herself to death in Ohio is not without a precedent in this State. Several years ago “Farmer Allen ” and “Brother Potter,” as they were called (David Allen and R. K. Potter), used to travel together as stump speakers. They had a. great fund of stories, and were accustomed to tell them in a comical way. They spoke at a meeting in Dedham (we think it was), and Farmer Allen set one of the audience laughing so that the man could not stop. He was carried home, and literally laughed himself to death. These incidents illustrate the danger of people being as funny as they can, which Dr. Holmes long ago warned about—Boston Herald. ’ Jun. His Luck.

My disease (psoriasis) first broke out on my left cheek, spreading across my nose, and almost cov- ering my face. It ran into my eyes, and the physician was afraid I would lose my eyesight altogether. It spread all over my head, and my _ r all fell out, until 1 was entirely bald-headed; it then ; broke out on my arms and ', shoulders, until my arms were . just one sore. It covered in entire body, my face,. hen , and shoulders being the worst. The white scabs fell constantly from my head, shoulders, and arms; the skin would thicken _ and be red and very itchy, and would crack and bleed " if scratched. After spending'l many hundreds of dollars, I , .. was renounced incurable. I heard of the CUTICURA summits, and after using two bottles CUTICUBA RESOLVENT,I could see a change; and after I had taken four bottles, I was almost cured; and when I had used six bottle° of Cancun Rnsonvuu'r, one box of Curxcum,and one cake of CUTICURA SOAP, I was cured of the dreadful disease from which I had suffered for five years.
