The Deadly Claret Punch.

A singular case of lockjaw came I'M
der the notice of several reliable physi-
clans a few days ago. A gentleman
well-known in business circles, and
rather heavy weight, suffered intense
ly from the heat. After experimenting
with a number of cooling beverages, he
finally settled on claret punches as the
best g steady drink " for hot weather,
and absorbed several of them daily
through a straw. Unfortunately, he
held the straw in the same position as
he did cigar, in the corner of his
mouth, with the end resting against his
cheek At the expiration of few days
the intensely cold liquid had singular
effect, and formed an abscess in his
cheek. Not knowing at once what it
was, he continued to dispose of his reg
ular number of punches, and was soon
taken with the lockjaw. DR.. Hodgen,
and one or two other physicians attend
ed him, and with difficulty saved his
life. They were for some time at loss
to account for the singular affection, but
on hearing his story all agreed that the
claret punches were responsible for the
evil. The sufferer, although not en-
tirely recovered, is out of danger. He
will carefully avoid in future all crooked
and dangerous drinks, which he now
considers q delusion and snare, and
will either take his straight or with
sugar.-S. Louis Democrat.

Aaron Burr's Daughter.

1t was Theodosia, his daughter, 80
lovely, SO pure, so intellectual, so
naughty, and yet so soft and gentle, that
opened to Aaron Burr the brightest
page in this blotted volume of his life.
"She was nearly complete realization
of his ideal of n woman" Upon her he
lavished the wealth of a soul that over
flowed with secret tenderness. Long
after his fall from power, she was the
solitary star, shining in beautiful luster
over the darkened and rough pathway
of his life.
During his trial for high treason at
Richmond, in 1907, Theodosia, then the
brilliant leader of society in the most
aristocratic city of the South-the wife
of Joseph Aston, distinguished citi-
zen of South Carolina-by her devotion,
sagacity and influence powerfully aided
her fathers defense. In the darkest
hour of that memorable legal drama she
evinced her deep affection in language
as heroic as it was beautiful. My
vanity" she said, would be greater if
had not been placed so near you and
yet my pride is ou relationship. L had
rather not live than not to be the daugh-
ter of such a man. y
A few years after the Richmond trial,
which resulted in victory for Burr,
Theodosia met fate which is still en-
veloped in gloom and mystery.
At the close of the year 1872 she sailed
from Charleston in vessel bound for
New York, for the purpose of visiting
her father. Her husband was then
Governor of South Carolina. Though
he provided everything conducive to
her safety and comfort which wealth
and influence could command, the YES
sci never reached its destination-was
never heard from after leaving Charles
ton harbor At last all hope ended
the certainty that Theodosia was dead,
came home to them. and Aaron Burr
was bereaved as few have ever been be-
reaved-left to ga life all winter, war
within himself to wage"

Agriculture i'm Alaska.

A gentleman who has spent some time
in our new possessions writes to Cali
fornia paper If person visits the
Aleutian islands or the Alaska peninsu-
la during the summer months and sees
the valleys covered with waving grass,
which reaches over ones head, and the
mountains with a deep carpet of juicy
herbs, while millions of the prettiest
flowers dot the landscape, and load the
air with their fragrance or, if he pene-
trates the interior and there sees the
vast plains of rich soil producing rank
vegetation, he would naturally enough
Judge that here would be a place for
stockraising and farming. 1t has been
stated that the climate of Southern
Alaska resembles that of the Scotch
Highlands and of Scandinavia, and
think it even compares favorably with
these countries. Now, farming and
stock-raising is carried on in the High
lands and in Norway and Sweden and
in North Russia, where the ground re-
mains frozen, a few feet from the sur
face, all the year round, rye is an i'm
portant article of export. Is it there
fore not reasonable that Alaska should
as well be adapted for these purposes {?
/ think, most undoubtedly and yet
am certain it will not be settled for a
long time to come.

The Rebel Loss OF Gettysburg.

Gen. Pendleton's statement in pub
lie lecture that Gen. Longstreet was re-
sponsible for the loss TO the rebels of
the battle of Gettysburg, has called out
letter from ex-Gov. B. G. Humphreys,
of Mississippi, who commanded bri-
gade in Longstreet's corps at that time.
Gen. Humphreys gives vivid account
of the three days battle, and
contends that it was not Gen. Long
street who disobeyed orders, but that
Gen. j. T.. b. Stuart is possibly most
responsible for the Gettysburg disaster.
After reviewing the principal events of
the battle the Governor says
"Nearly tenyears have now passed by
since the battle of Gettysburg, and with
many Gettysburg seems to be an
enigma. They seem to be unwilling to
accept Lees self-accusation. His over
weening confidence in Stuart, they fear,
reflects too much on his sagacity as a
general ; and as Stuart was pet in high
feather with the army and the country,
the story of his disregard of Lees in
structions, by making n brilliant dash
and fruitless foray on Meade's rear, in
stead of being on his front and keeping
hcc iilolHeu, miSHJ DC lOsI slBnb OI
and forgotten. Again Ewell was
charged with losing the victory at Get
tysburg by failing to seize Gulp's Hill
and Cemetery Ridge on the first day.
Ewell was then living, and, being in
good odor with the Confederates, readi-
ly squelched the idea of making him the
cape-goat of Gettysburg Now, nine
years after the battle, comes Long
streets turn, and, not being in high
feather and good odor with the Southern
people, his unworthy ambition and
ill-temper with Lee is readily accepted
as the true solution of the enigma of the
loss of Gettysburg. My love for the
true soldiers of the Southern Confedera-
cy, true when we needed friends, has
not failedsme, and may be but too
prone to defend them T; yet, 1 am per-
suaded that when an impartial history
of our civil war can be written, the mill
tary fidelity and heroic record of James
Longstreet will shine bright among the
brightest ornaments of the Confederate
struggle for liberty and the independ-
ence of the South"

It's banks are low the soil, when ex-
amined, is found to contain very little
SILICA, being composed mainly of mi
mute shells. At elevated places along
the banks the coquinea, a species of
she'll rock, can be seen. Wherever this
is found the soil is very fertile, and par
ticnlarly favorable to the growth of the
orange. Live oaks tower to the skies,
and their branches, spreading some fifty
or sixty feet each way, covered with a
draperv of solemn moss, and cypress,
bay, gum, palmetto, and magnolia
trees. with the beautiful palm with
