4 STRANGE Sickness in mills where

4 STRANGE SICKNESS n mills where
the ores of the Consolidated Virginia
mine are worked is noticed as follows by
the Enterprise of Thursday:
In all the mills in which ore from the
Consolidated Virginia is being worked the
men in the matchmaking departments
are more or less affected By new and
peculiar illness. They shake as though
afflicted with palsy. Their hands shake
SO badly that they can hardly raise cup
of coffee to their mouths The sickness
does not seem to infiict any permanent
injury, as when those affected cease to
work for few days they recover their
usual health No less than ten men who
have been working at the new California
mill are now lying off on account OF this
"shaky sickness" 1t is not known
whether the sickness is owing 20 some
mineral entering into the composition OF
the ore, or whether it is caused by the
chemicals. In working the ores of the
bonanza bluestOne (sulphate of copper
and all the other chemicals. As cyanide
of potash and the like, are used in much
larger doses than when poorer ores are
being treated, and by some it is supposed
tDdt mere lies the source "a the tIOuDIt
and the cause OF the new sickness. The
pans are closely covered during the time
a charge is being worked. then when the
covers are finally raised great column
OF steam impgegnated with chemicals
and volatilized quicksilver rusheS up,
portions of which the men undoubtedly
inLale. Except when it IS storI.ing the
the windows OF mill might rs well be .
opened as not-a portion Of them ut .
least-as when a mill is in operation it !
is always quite warm enough to allow Of +
this. One shift of men will say that they
cannot be bothered with the Windows:
that they can stand it their shift ont;
and SO it goes, all working on as usual
and nobody looking after the ventilation.
When the matter shall BE- properly inves-
igated it will probably be found that the
sickness among the men is caused by
breathing the eyhalatiuiis Of chemicals
from the pans and aot by Any leleterioUs
nineral IN the ore.

Presidential LsIXuries.

In the House last Wednesday, the bill
to limit the Presidential term being up
for debate, Mr.. j. Proctor Knott, of
Kentucky, Chairman of the Judiciary
Committee, closed the discussion by some
amusing remarks. He reviewed the dis
cussions in the Constitutional Convention
and the early history of the Government
on that subject and alluded to the vote in
the House in the first week Of this ses-
sion declaring ga departure from the
time-honored custom in regard to the
Presidential term to be unwise, unpatri-
otto and fraught with perils to the free in
situations" If that were so, then, as a
matter of course, the limit should be
fixed. Quoting the maxim in regard to
| office-holders, that few die and none re-
sign" he pictured he allurements of the
Presidential Office as follows: A salary
Of 500, 900; mansion sustained in a
style of luxury that few persons dreamed
of furnished, repaired and heated at
an annual expense of S25, 900, with the

meant he did not know, but thanked God
for the =" contingencies" Laughter. I
If. the children of Israel sighed for the
fiesh-pots of Egypt, what must be the
anguish OF a sensitive soul when taking
a last long farewell of such salary and
luxuries /! He asked the gentlemen to
go home to their honest, hard worked
over-taxed constituents and tell them
why four years was not a sufficient
length of time for any American citizen
to enjoy such an office.
