NEWS OFTHE WEEK.
Disabled Volunteer Soldiers,

The board of managers OF the
national home for disabled volunteer soldiers
have been in session at Washington. There
were present Chief Justice Waite, Gen. Butler,
Gen. Martidale, Gov. Frederick Smyth, New
York; Judge H. L. Bond, Maryland; Hon.
Lewis B. Gunckel, Ohio; Gen. j. s. Negley,
Pennsylvania; and Gen. E. B. Wolcott, Wis.
consin. The secretary presented the annual
report. 1t showed over 5000 disabled soldiers
were cared for during the year, as follows:
At Central branch Dayton, Ohio, 1923; at the
Northwestern branch, 1907; at the Eastern
branch, Augusta, Maine, 1895, and at Southern
branch, Hampton, Va, 95S, being over 1000
more thad during the year 1876. Total aver
age cost of keeping each man during the year
was 1925, being $40 less than of the year 1876,
and saving to the government of nearly
100000. There has been decided improve
ment in the conduct and morals of the men
aid The number Of dishonorable discharges is
less than ever before. It appeared that more
than six thousand of the men did not during
the entire year commit single otfense, or
violate a single rule or regulation at the
homes. The board authorized Improvements
looking to an increase of the usefulness and
efficiency of the homes, and after making the
necessary appropriations and doing much
other routine business, adjourned to hold its
next regular meeting at the eastern branch
homes near Augusta, Maine, the 9Th OF July
next.
Attempt to Remove selah Chamber Ain
as Referee,
Judge Larremere in the New York
court of common pleas has given his decision
upon the application of Francis G.. Saltenstall,
of Chicago, for the removal of Selah Cham
berlain as receiver of Warren Z. Greenleaf,
surviving partner Of the firm of Greenleaf,
Norris & Co. Judge Larrcmere says as an
officer of the court, Chamberlain is controll-
cd and restricted by the courts order and
amenable to its direction, and he cannot
legally dispose of the trust property except
by general sanction. No act of his was shown
that was subyersive of his trust, or that tended
to violation of official duty. Saltenstall, as
a mere creditor, should not be permitted to
vacate the Judgment, without showing fraud
or collision in its recovery. A creditor can
in no case be appointed as receiver of debt
ors property. The appointment as such was
not necessarily improper and invalid, and all
authorities led to the conclusion that re-
cciyer appointed by court of competent jur-
isdiction and in the exercise of its discretion,
should not be removed by any judge of the
same court except for valid cause. Judge
Larrimere says, however, his conviction is
clear that as nonresident or temporary
resident of the State, Chamberlain would be
disqualified. As the question of residence was
one of doubt he directs the referee to take
proofs and report to the court with his opin-
ion. For the present he dismissed the appli-
cation.

medical profession here. Peter I.avelle
and wife, walters iii a Central avenue

since in good health, Next monin. Mrs
Lavelle awoke and attempted to speak to
her husband, when She found herself to
tally deprived OF the power Of speech .
all efforts to arlicuate were unavailin4,
and a physician was sent for. The only
symptoms of disease apparent We're "a
thick, dark coating On the tongue and d
hollow appearance Of the eyes. ON the
same afternoon l.avelle, While sitting in
front Of his employers establishment, was
observed to fall back in his chair; anoth-
er waiter undertook to arouse him, when
it was found that be was unable to speak
a word. Since that time neither man
nor wife have spoken, and the physicians
are unable to account for the loss Of
speech. The patients have been removed
to the residence of Mrs. Lavelles sister
in Covington. Lavelle is very i'll, but will
probably recover His wife is growing
weaker daily, and all hopes of her recoy-
cry are abandoned. The theory has been
suggested that poison had been placed in

An election for Mayor took place in
Baltimore last Thursday, and it was
principally interesting for revealing the
fact that the Greenback party has only
an insignificant following in this one of
the leading eastern cities, place Of four
hundred thousand inhabitants. In spite
Of the Favorable condition Of an entire
lack Of interest in the election on the
part Of the old parties, the Greenbackers
polled only 1899 votes out OF total vote
Of l., ,429. TO Illustrate what magnti-
cent opportunity the new party had to
i" get its work in" had it really any
strength, it may be said that the Demo-
Gratis did not poll more than half of their
regular vote, while the Republicans made
no nomination at all. And yet with a
clear field before them the Greenbackers
got less than 400 votes out Of over l5,-
900 poled. Straws like this show which
way the wind blows.
The Calais Times, a Greenback paper,
fails to support Murch, the Congression-
al nominee. Mr.. Whidden, the editor Of
that newspaper, was present at the Green
back convention, held in this city, and
he probably saw enough of the candidate,
and heard enough Of his talk, to cause
him to hesitate about becoming the cham
pon Of the Communistic Greenbacker.

The west, which has made many dis
coveres that have been adopted by other
parts Of the country, has Of late been
finding a new use for newspapers. In
many schools in Illinois, Iowa and else
where, teachers hear reading lessons from
newspapers, instead of using the select
ions. Of miscellaneous literature which
are found n school reading books. The
advantage Of this is that the pupils, while
gaining accuracy and tiuency as readers,
obtain knowledge of the affairs of the
day, which they would obtain in no other
way, and thus learn to take an interest
in subjects which, in their later years will
practically engage their attention as bus
mess men and women

is another proof of the enterprise Of that

every day to many thousand readers an
interesting epitome Of the news Of the

seizes the story Of those events and prints

THE STANDARD.
The Effect of Diet on Liquor Drinking.

Charles Napier, an English scientific
man, has been testing the truth OF Lie
bigs theory that liquor drinking is com
patible with animal food but not with
farinaceous diet. The experiment was
tried upon 81 liquor drinking persons
with results substantiating the Liebig
theory. Among the most striking in
stances of reform brought about by
change of diet was that of q gentleman
of go who had been addicted to intem-
perate habits for 35 years; his outbursts
averaged one a week. His constitution
was SO shattered that he bad great diff
Guilty in nsuring his life. After an at
tack OF delirium tremens, which nearly
ended fatally, he was persuaded to enter
upon a farinaceous diet, which, we are
assured, cured him completely in Eeven
months. He seems to have been very
thin at tho beginning Of the experiment,
but by the close of the period named had
gained twenty-eight pounds, being then
Of about the normal weight for person
of his height.
Among the articles of food which are
specified by Napier as pre-eminent for
antagonism to alcohol are macaroni, har
icot beans, dried peas. and lentils, all Of
which should be well boiled and favored
with plenty of butter or olive oil. The
various garden vegetables are said to bt
helpful, but q diet mainly composed o
them would not resist the tendency tc
intemperance so effectually as one of ma
caroni and farinaceous food.
From this point of view, highly glutin
GUS bread would be of great utility, bu
il should not be sour, such acidity beini
calculated to foster the habit OF alcoholi
drinking A like remark may be applied
to the use Of salted food.
If we inquire the cause OF vegeta
rians alleged disinclination to alcohol
liquors we find that the carbonaceou
starch contained in the macaroni, beans
or oleaginous aliment appears to rende
unnecessary, and therefore repulsive, cal
bon in an alcoholic form.-[Scientif
