NEXT to the Fall elections, probably
nothing has occurred to so interest the
public as the GUIBoRD burial case. The
history of this trouble how the man was
accommodated and died without re-
ceiving the sacrament. OF the Roman
Catholic Church; how his friends after
ms death endeavored TO bury him IN q
Roman Catholic cemetery; how his
burial was refused to be permitted; how
the cese was carried to the civil Courts,
who ordered that he be buried IN
that cemetery, and the trouble
so recently attending the Ell
forts TO carry out this decree, are all
well known. They have been detailed
over and over again. But the trouble Is
not ended vet, and though he has been
dead six years it has been determined to
bury MIN on the 3th inst, and it is an
nounced that such of his remains rs have
been spared by the worms Will De con-
eyed to the grave unde. the protection
Of the militia. 1t Is assuring to learn
that the militia Will be protected by Col
onel Fletcher, veteran Of thlrty-eight
years service, who will have the process
sion under his command. 1t Is thought
there is trouble in store, but the careful
arrangements of the mayor of Montreal,
the chief Of police, and tho council OF
the Institute Canadien Will doubtless
prevent any great attempt at a riot.
What a pity these poor crumbiing
bones cannot rest in peace. Whether he
ls in heaven or hell, it is not likely that
ms happiness or torment Will be either
increased or diminished by where his
remains lie, aud this i ght over the dust
Of fellow mortal is certainly calculated
10 reaec, great discrelit upon humanity.

NECESSITY FOR PROPER DRAIN
AGE

The extraordinary prevalence otdiph-
iberia in every direction, and most nota-
bay i'll New \ ork, where, in the past few
weeks, ten per cent Of the deaths from all
sources combined have been attributed TO
this distressing disease, has startled the
Board of Health and the medical
fraternity generally to thinking over
the cause of its appearance. The re-
suit of their deliberations are WORTHY
of being considered everywhere. In
this city no disease is more common, and
while fortunately it is not generally
fatal, still from tho las. mortality report
of our Health officer, it is shown that lis
victims are Us many as those OF any other.
The New York investigation led to the
belief that the chief ravage: Of this dis
ease were in the undraincd, overcrowded
regions. This conclusion was reached by
examining the health statistics Of Staten
Island, which though a much healthier
locality than New York, yet, according
to the official report Of the committee Of
the County Medical Society mot less
than one-hnlf and in many portions four
fifth. of the prevailing diseases are either
directly caused or seriously aggravated
BY the malgn influence resulting from
al inefficient drainage Truly,
AS has been remarked by high
authority, "thc least expensive Of all
the efforts that man is required to make
TO secure for himself healthtul and hap
py home is the simple draining of the
soil. The poisons emanatlug from un-
drained soils kill and disable more people
than wars. Ii has been remarked by
medical author that much OF this drain
age could be accomplished by nature.
This remark applies more to the country
than to the town, Of course yet it is true
that in cities too little attention is often
paid the proper modes and extensions Of
drainage, in the lower lying districts, cs-
pecially, where il Is most needed.
Generally speaking, the natural iorma-
ton of the ground upon which Wheel
ING is built, enables the drainage to be
readily preserved; but there i, no doubt

Ii natural gas should eventually be-
come the fuel of the Pittsburgh Mills,
and if the supply should prove as is al
legged, inexhaustible, what complete
metamorphosis would be effected in the

and smoke, and if all this should be done
away with by gas, it will SO completely

HOW IDAHO WAS NAMED.

good joke and any mans aim to distinction AL In one

follows:

ing community At the time when the subject OF the Or
ganzaton of the Territory under debate he was,

sentatives Various names had been proposed without
any seeming approach to agreement and the Doctor,
whose familiarity with Indian dialects was pretty well
lnown was appealed TO by Of his legislative friends
ior suggestion One of them said: Something round
and smooth now, with the right sort Of meaning to it,
Now happened that little daughter OF one of these
gentlemen the floor that ItrninS with her father
ana the Doctor Who fond of children, had just been
calling her to him with, Ida ho, come and me-"
Nothing could he better, and the veteran explorer
promptly responded with the name " Idaho"
" But what does it mean y
"Gem of the Mountains" replied the quick-wted
Doctor with glance the fresh face beside him. and the
interpretation like the uame has stuck to this day
