HYDROPHOBIA.
As a Form of DeIIrium Tremens.

NEW YORK. June DIR. Hammond
after a careful and thorough investigation
Of the pathological changes in the case of
Eutwistle, the cOmpOSitOr who was bitten
by a dog two weeks ago, aud died yester-
day, says no peculiarities could be found,
nor We're there any changes that would not
be observed after death from delirium
tremens, except 4 thickening of the blood
vessels which had probably been going on
for wears. The cause of Entwistle's death
had been hard drinking. The patient had
the fear of hydrophobia before him, in
duced perhaps by the bite Of dog. The
fear Of water had been very prominent,
whereas in true hydropiio5ia the patient
does not fear It, bit cannot drink il.
Entwistle did and could drink when he
really tried to do so.

This rate the Commissioners reduce to four

THERE is something Of genuine rail.
road reform in the attitude taken by
the Sioux City and St. Paul road. The
Minnesota Railroad Commissioners
haying reduced the passenger fares. the
General Manager threatens to take off
all first class cars and give the people
such accommodations as the reduced
rates Will lCstify. We imagine that
vii suit The farmers. What they OBJ
Ject to is being obliged to paw
Tor rolling palaces, when they
III srely want decent transportation. If
the millions squandered on palace cars
during the past decade had been de-
voted to reducing rates, the railroads
aad the people would be on better
terms, and both more prosperous. Let
those who want such Injuries paw their
fnll cost, 1t is unjust to distribute it
N such Il way that fourth-class passen-
gers and the transportation of freights
pave TO pay nine-tenths of the cost of a
Eld and glitter unnecessary to the
