A bogus LOURDEs.

About a year ago, says correspond
emit of the Pail Mall Gazette, crowds oil
persons flocked to st. Palais, where a
little boy said he had seen the Virgin,
who, among other things, told him to
swallow pebbles in stream, the heal
ing power OF which was announced.
Many sick people repaired thither, and
miraculous cures followed baths and alb
lutions. Jean lamereux has now ac-
knowledged that he never saw the Vir-
gin at all, and that he was simply in
dulging in a joke when he pretended to
converse with her. This promising
youth, who deceived generals, projects,
and at least 100. 900 devout persons, has
now been committed to prison. He Is
only eight years of age.

GRANT GOING TO JAPAN.

"We understand" says the Toxic
Times, "that ex-President Grant has
written to gentleman in Japan ex-
pressing q determination to visit this
country. As the general is "a very OBJ.
stinate man. we may hope he will not
alter this plan. His desire is to travel
as o private citizen, but 1t Is needless to
say that he cannot altogether escape
the expressions of gratitude and respect
which his distinguished services to his
country and the common cause Of good
order must always awaken"

TRANSMISSION Of BlOOd--Tw0 Lives Lost I'm
n surgical Experiment.

A man named Robert Williams died
in Liverpool the other day from having
his blood ,transfused into another man
who was i'll. He went on all we'll for q
few days afterward. He then became
i'll, got gradually weaker and died of
erysipelas. The deceased was o man Of
full habit, and was occasionally given to
drinking. The surgeon who performed
the operation. before doing so, made
particular inquiries from the deceased
as to his habits and state OF health, and
his answers were satisfactory, At the
inquest medical evidence was to the
effect that the operation had been skill
fully performed. Dr. Higginson said he
had performed the operation success
fully In fifteen cases. The Jury returned
verdict of death by misadventure,
but they were also OF opinion that sufii.
Client inquiry was not made by the medi.
cal men who made the operation as to
the deceased's habits and physical condi.
ton, and that he was not sufficiently
cautioned as to the risk he was running.
