A Singular Disease.

Cerebro- spinal meningitis is disease
which seems quite incomprehensible to
the non-medcal classes in the commu-
nifty; and. indeed, even among the best
informed and most skillful physicians
there is great diversity of opinion re-
specting the causes and the proper
method of treating this disease. 1t has
assumed an epidemic form several times
in different parts of our country, seem
ipgly independent of any agency refer
able to peculiarities of climate, season,
or locality. The first epidemic vista
ton was in 1906, wheii it gradually
spread through the New England and
Middle States and Canada. 1t again
became epidemic in 1910, was widely
prevalent during the civil war, and has
never since altogether disappeared from
the country. According to DR.. Moore,
"A physician of st. Louis, where the dis
ease has prevailed recently, the first
symptoms of cerebro-s spinal meningitis
are exceedingly varied in different indi-
viduals. The attack is usually very
sudden, seizing the patient when ap-
parently in ordinary health. Pain in
the head, constant or intermittent, pain
in the back of the neck and along the
spine, with soreness in limbs and joints,
are common symptoms. Sometimes the
attack is preceded by giddiness or by
ague, or by cold extremities, flushed
face, and quick pulse in other cases by
lassitude and prostration, by a deep
stupor, or even by severe nausea and
vomiting. These. initiatory symptoms
are followed by state of violent agita-
ton, which is replaced by stupor. The
bodyof the patient becomes excessively
sensitive, the slightest touch being
painful. The most striking symptoms
of cerebro-spinal meningitis are those
presented by the muscular system. The
muscles Of the neck become rigidly
contracted, drawing the head back and
firmly fxingit in that position. Rigidity
is very comman in the muscles of the
extremities sometimes the muscles of
the whole spine are 80 violently con-
tracted as to force the spine backward.

LassOing Women.

A youth named Verzeni was lately
sentenced by the Court of Assizes at
Bergamo, Italy, to hard labor for life,
for having strnngled two women and
attempted to strangle several more. He
always strenuOusly denied having had
any hand in these crimes. Some days
ago, however, a man employed to catch
dogs straying about the town called on
M. Dona, the President of the Court,
and told him that young conntryman
had come to him at one time, begging
to be taught the knack of throwing the
rsnning moose over the dogs heads.
At the end of two or three lessons this
Young man became so expert in the art
that he never missed his aim. As the
dog catcher declared that he should
recognize his former pupil if he had an
opportunity of seeing him, the Presi-
dent ordered the convict to be brought
forward, with some of his companions.
The man instantly pointed out verzoni
as the young peasant who had learned
70 moose dogs so cleverly. This cor
roboration of the evidence against a
notorious criminal has produced great
excitement in the town, but the culprit
d 'clares that the dog-catcher dreamt
he whole thing.

Did Not Want to Go.

The following letter from the Duke OF
Aosta to his father, the King of Italy,
dated January, 1869, and now published
in the Radical El Impartial of Madrid,
throws much light on the views enter
tained by Don Amadeo, from first to
last, during his sovereignty
"Your Majesty: 1t was with extreme
surprise that, for the first time and
without any previous communication to
me ON the subject, heard from your
Majesty that it was seriously in contem-
platon to confer on me the crown of
Spain. On my return to Genoa l have
spoken of this to my wife. She is ready
to follow me, wherever | may go i; to
share my lot, whatever it may be. To
tell your Majesty how much l love my
country, and how much am willing to
do for her, is needless any sacrifice,
even that of life itself, would seem light
to me for her sake. But what is it that
/ am now asked to undertake? 1t is to
rule the destinies of country which is
divided and torn to pieces bya thousand
political parties and task which
would be arduous to any one would be
doubly SO to one who, like myself, has
had no experience in the difficult art of
governing. The consequence would be
that l should in fact not govern, but
should have to submit to the dictates of
those who had called me to the throne.
These reasons are strong enough to in
duce me, this very day, to place in the
hands of your Majesty my formal re-
fusal of the crown of Spain, begging
your Majesty to transmit my decision to
those whom it may concern.
"Your Majesty's affectlonate son,

Killed by q Stone.

Edward Kerrigan was tried in the
Oyer and Terminer Court, New York,
on an indictment for murder in he first
degree, and narrowly escaped a convic-
tion for the full offence, receiving sen.
tence to State Prison for life, having
been found guilty of manslaughter in
the first degree. The case is singular
one.
In the evening of the 18th of August
last, Martin Fritz, then keeper of a beer
saloon in Fifty-second street, discovered
some unknown persons throwing stones
at his house He started for an officer,
and the stone throwing ceased for a
time. Learning this from a messenger,
he did not return promptly. Little
Maggie Fritz, the four year-old pet of
the Fritz household, became anxious
about her papa. 1t was her hour for
going to bed, and her mother asked her
to do so. But she said, Il cannot go to
bed until papa comes back. must kiss
him good night" To please the child
Mrs. Fritz took her to the front door,
and held her in her arms a few minutes
watching for the absent husband and
father. Suddenly Mrs. Fritz felt n
shock, and the child uttered scream
1t had been struck on the left side of
the head by stone as large as mans
hand, and its skull was smashed as
though it had been an egg-shell. Wit
nesses testified that Kerrigan threw the
stones from the roof of the house oppo-
site that of Fritz.

"POisOn" Legislation.

The Legislature of Michigan has en-
acted that, hereafter, druggists or doc
tors who fail to write or print upon the
label of each bottle or paper containing
poison, the most easily obtainable anti
dote to the same, shall be subject to
very severe penalty. The object is
to prevent the excitement" which al
ways occurs when some member of a
family has accidentally" swallowed a
poisonous compound intended to de-
stroy rats and mice, by providing a
remedy that can be procured from the
nearest druggist, without havingto to lose
time in hunting up doctor to make an
examination and write prescription
a slow and tedious process, as nearly
everybody knows who has had expert
ence of it. The Michigan idea of pre-
vention is, perhaps. not as thorough as
it might be. 1t is practical, and, there
is little doubt, will be found to work
well.

An Unjust Sentence.

If it were possible to count the num-
Der of men and women WHO have been
sacrificed to the force of mere circum.
stantial evidence, the result would
scarcely be satisfactory to the enforcers
of the law. In illustration OF this, an
interesting incident appears in a French
paper. Thirty years ago two French
peasants were attacked as they were re-
turning from a village fair, one of them
being murdered outright. while his
companion was able to make his escape
badly wounded. No trace OF the
assassins could be discovered for some
time, but about year after, two men,
named Lionnet and Dussud, were ar
rested on suspicion. The survivor, who
at first said he should be unable to
identify his assailants, was induced to
swear that these were the men and
though two persons of respectability
declared that Dussud had passed the
evening upon which the crime was COM
mitted, at q house many miles distant,
the court condemned him to fifteen
wears penal servitude, and his alleged
companion 10 hard labor for life. The
husband and wife who had come for
ward to prove an alibi in favor of Dus-
sud were, moreover sentenced to seven
years at the galleys for perjury. They
served their time and have since died,
as also has Lionnet. Dussud, the sole
survivor, who always asserted that he
was innocent, has long since come back
to his native village. and, despite the
stigma attaching to returned convict,
has been slowly regaining the goodwill
of his neighbors.
A short time ago An old man named
Rambin, who was lying i'll in hospital
at st. Symphorien, sent for him, stating
that he had some important communi-
cation to make, and in presence of the
priest and commissary of police, he
that he was the murderer,
whence il followed that Dussud and
Lionnet had been unjustly punished.
But for the favorable antecedents of the
they would have undergone
the extreme penalty of the Law and
even as it was, they not only suffered
very severely, but were the innocent
cause of ruin to the witnesses who came
forward to testify 10 the truth in their
behalf.

Bows and their Mothers.

Some one has written beautifully to
the boys in the following manner.
Here is whole sermon in a few sen.
tences
"Of all the love affairs in the world,
none can surpass the true love of the
big boy for his mother. 1t is love
pure and noble, honorable in the high
estdegree to both. do not mean mere
ly dutiful affection. l mean a love
which makes boy gallant and courte-
Gus to his mother, saying to everybody
plainly that he is fairly in love with her.
Next to the love of her husband, moth
ing so crowns a woman's life with honor
as this second love, this devotion of her
son to her. And 1 neveryet knew boy
turn out bad who began with falling in
love with his mother. Any man may
fall in love with fresh-faced girl, and
the man who is gallant with the girl
may crnelly neglect the-worn and weary
wife. But the boy who is lover to his
mother in her middle age is a true
knight, who will love his wife as much
in the sere-leaved autumn as he did in
the daisied spring-time."

When Charles x, then the Count
d Artois, returned TO France in 1914, on
seeing, like Charles ii of England AZ a
similar reception, that all the enemies
of his family had disappeared, he said,
loud enough to have the 6on-not heard
and repeated with praise:
"There's only one Frenchman the
more"
This, the only clover sontsnss over
spoken by the prince, was put into his
mouth by Talleyrand, who made it.
Between Talleyrand and Fouche (head
of Napoleon's police) there was no love
lost. Fouche used to say that Talley-
rand was nothing until he had drank a
bottle of which could scarce
ly be true, MS his breakfast was one rusk
and one cup OF black, strong coffee his
only meal, in the whole day being
his dinner, which occupied two hours
and consisted of several courses; but
this was not taken until six or seven
o'clock, when the days official work was
over.
On Nspoleon's return from Elba, he
reinstated FoucAe as Minister OF Police,
and, no doubt, was betrayed by him
duplicates of all his plans for the cam
paign of June, 1915, in Belgium, hay
ing been sent on to the Duke of We'll
lington. Beforesthe arrangements for
that last blow were all CO ,pleted, Ma
poleon asked Fouche whether it would
not lie easy to obtain the adhesion of
Talleyrand, then French Ambassador at
Vienna, by sending him handsome
gold-and- diamond snuff which, by
the way, he would receive from other
parties at the conclusion OF the treaty.
"He will open it, said Fouche, who
knew something of Talleyrand's rapaci-
ty. "Put in it an order for two millions
of francs -four hundred thousand dol
lars), sne-half payable on his return to
France"
Napoleon said, "No that would be
too expensive"
SO the present was not made. Had
it been offered and accepted, perhaps
Napoleon 1. might have died Emperor
in Paris. instead of exile in st. Helena.
