Past New Year's Recaption at
White Ileaee.
the
llie attendance at the public recep
tions, and especially the New Year's
reception, has been steadily on the de
cline for the past ten years. In former
years they were of a formal character
and were not attended except by those
in full dress. From that they grew to
be less stirf and more democratic until
now, when all who desire can have the
privilege of paying their respects to the
Chief Executive of the nation, provided
they conduct tnemselves m a res pec ta
ble manner. President Buchanan's
New Year's receptions were probably
attended by more persons than those of
any other president, though there hava
been, it is. said by persons wbo are com

Ex ten aire Operations on Two Contt-

New York, Jan. 2. Last Wednesday
a cabJe dispatehito Police Commission
er Smith from Consul Crosby, at Flor
ence, advised him -of tkej captureiin that
city or three American forgers who
were traveling witn their wives under
the names of George Ash ton Colbert,
Henry Wills and James J. J unusor
ged securities, letters of r credit s and
drafts of me ri can banks were found in
theiar posessiofi. . A eiegrapoit: correspon
dence with Consul Crosby developed
the fact that Colbert was alias for
"Pete" Burns, Wills for Wilkes, and
jj ulius for "Shell" Hamilton, who was!
.out ot prison lor nine months. A' dis
patch was tnen received which an
nounced that evidence bad been found
by the police of Florence implicating
Charles Becker and Geo; Engela in ;the
forgeries, and asking for their arrest.
Engels's alias, as discovered by the Ita
lians, was Helger. Trapawere set at
once for the two men by the police, and
on Friday night Engels was arrested
and .'locked . up at the poliGe
headquarters. Detectives were sent to
Becker's bouse, about two miles back of
New Lots, in King's county, on Wed
nesday. They watched the' house all
through the snow storm, and on Friday
morning they arrested their man as he
was descending the steps of his resi
dence, and took him also to police head
quarters. The Florence authorities
were advised of the capture of these
men, and they sent word back that- ex
tradition papers would be forwarded at
nee. Charles Becker is well known to
police as the man; who perpetrated the
664,000 forgery on the Union Trust Com
pany in 1873. He was arrested, and a
plate of a forged check was found at
his house. He was a prisoner in the
Tombs and Ludlow street jail for a
long time, but escaped puntshnlent. Be
fore that he had . been imprisoned in
Constantinople for forging Turkish
bonds, and broke jail with two confedr
erates, "Joe" Elliott and "Charley" Drar
per. He is, according to inf ormatioa
gained by the police, charged with com
mitting a murder in Europe some years
ago. Edward Burrts is a liquor dealer

The following extract is frem a phy
sician's letter published in the Boston
Journal of Commerce: "I believe with
you that untold harm is done by offer
ing anything but breast milk or cow's
milk properly prepared if the babe' is
handf ed until he has a mouthful of
teeth. 'Milk is the food of babes,' and if
the mother is healthy and lives on the
right food her milk will have teeth
enough in it and they will appear in the
right time if she doesn't let the babe
guzzle until he is diseased with fatty
degeneration. Most infants do become
thus diseased before they are three
months old. This stops the growth
and leaves the poor deceived parents
nothing bat increase irr weight to boast
of, and when the poor little victim to
his own greed and his parent's folly
gets to the end of his tether he melts
away like butter in a hotoyen, and then
it is seen how poor (in flesh) he has been
all the time. Few comprehend the
broad difference between flesh and fat
The hrst is lean meat muscle tne re
sult of growth : while fat I don't care
how hard and solid it may be is the
product or accumulation of unexcretial
excess? This is why no one-bets a dol
lar on a fat horse or a fat man they
are soft and can't stay.' lt is every whit
as true of a fat baby. The only wonder
is that any infant lives sixty days from
birth. Fed before birth but three times
a day, he is after birth subjected to ten
or twenty meals in twenty-lour hours.
Before fcirth he grows at the rate of
fifty pounds per year, until chronic dys
pepsia or some acute.disease interferes.
