Among the deaths to-day were DR.. Matz-
dorff, young German physician of much
promise, who has since the appearance Of
the epidemic been most active III bis efforts
in behalf of the sick and dying, and John

EFFECT OF WAR ON FRANCE.

1t Is interesting and instructive to note in
what manner the financial condition Of
France has been affected by the late war
with Prussia and other circumstances.
From official sources il appears that the
funded debt Of the Republic is now not far
from $4,000,000,000, the annual interest
upon which is $16O,OO00OO iG round num-
bers. This is wholly exclusive of the float
ing debt, which is known to be large, though
the exact amount is not known 10 the pub
lie. No less thar Sl,649 100000 of the
funded debt is due to thu Franco-German
war, Of which the sum of nearly $780,
100000 has been paid in cash to Germany
by way Of indemnity. Connected with
this Statement! is another showing the actual
amounts realized from French loans since
1914, and the rate Of interest paid upon the
same. The highest rate paid from 1876 to
1872 was 9-52 per cent. This was on the
loan of 1917, after Waterloo, an the break
up Of the Bonsparte scheme. After that
the rate did not fall below 7 per cent. uutil
1921, when a loan was effected at 5S4. In
1874 a considerable loan was effected al
3 As, after which the rate advanced almost
constantly until 184S, when it reached 7.24
on a small loan of little more than 6,OO0,-
600 francs. In 1857 and 1859 loans were
effected at per cent, after which there
was again an upward movement, reaching
COG per rent. in 1871. The largest loan in
the list was that of 1872,-4,140,526,210
francs,-Which produced 3,49S, IA $3.50
francs cash, at an average of 5 80 per cent.

A HOT PLACE.

From the Virginia (Nev.) Enterprise July 4.
In drifting on the 1400 foot level of the
Crown Point mine the workmen keep boie
of considerable depth drilled ahead of the
main work, in order that they may not sud-
denly break through into a large body or
natural reservoir of water. A day or two
since, while thus boring ahead in the
rock, a vein Of water was tapped which
was exceedingly hot; 80 hot that
eggs were boiled in it, and boiled
till very hard at that. The eggs.
were placed in the drill hole, bit of rock
placed before them to back the water over
them, and in few minutes they were boil
ed as hard as conid have been done any
