TIE SECOND STAGE.
The stage of Inconsistencies is marked by

The stage of Inconsistencies is marked by
heavy breathing, turgid or flushed counte-
nance and neck, hot and dry skip, and fire.
quent and feeble pulse. In some cases the
face is deathly pale, but the other parts of
the body are more or less flushed. There is
an inability to swallow or to speak, and there
is a loss of sensation and voluntary motion.
The pupils of the eye are at first contracted,
but afterward become dilated. These condi-
tons resemble closely different kinds of blood
poisoning, in which is included alcoholic in
tOxication, and the diagnosis Is made by OBJ
serving the high temperature ST the body and
by taking into consideration the heat OF the
weather. But for the rise of the tempera-
ture it would be difficult to distinguish sun
stroke from jntoxication. The time Of day,
or the particular heat of one day, has moth
ing to do with sunstroke. Tine real cause Is
prolonged heat extending through several
days A person may be exposed to intense
heat for two days, and on the third day,
which may be cooler than the two preceding
it, may be sunstruck. DR.. LOOMS has had
cases in which the prominent sign was an iu-
crease of temperature. He treated them for
the premonitory stage of sunstroke, and all
bad effects disappeared; but he had no doubt
that the cases left to themselves would have
terminated IN the unconseiousness of sun
stroke

SUNSTROKE.
What the Disease Is-Its Various Stages
and Symptoms, as Detailed by DIR.
LOOMS, of New York.
Who are PredispOsed TO It-HOw Des-
perate Cases should be Treated
How to Live in Order to
Escape 1t.

DIR. Alfred L. LOOMS, of New York, has
detailed 10 a New York Herald reporter the
causes and effects of sunstroke. He SAID that
supstroke is not disease which occurs sud-
denly and strikes a person down without
warning. There Is always premonltory or
preparatory stage. THIS Is characterized by
restlessness, excitement anu inability 10 steep,
all of which are due to the effects OF neat
prolonged through several days. The erect
of the heat may be assisted by over stlmula,
ton with alcoholic drinks, mental shock ana
over-taxation Of the body and mind. n al
dition to these symptoms there are lassItOHe'
want of appetite and increased thirst. The
patients say that they feel hot but cannot
sweat. The greater number of cases Is OBJ
served IN laborers working out OF doors, al
though they may not be exposed to the direct
stage that the, pulse is increased
of the skin is raised above the
natural standard, which is ninety eight or
ninety-nine degrees. After this period OF
restlessness and excitement comes vertigo or
dizziness and fainting. which rapidly Or
gradually pass into the state of unconscious
ness called sunstroke. The termination Of
this stage is, naturally. recovery or death. Dr.
Loomis expressed his belief that, in the ma
iority of cases, the premonitory stage exists,
but the greater number of the persons affected
are habitual drinkers of stimuants, and keep
on drinking to relieve their great thirst, until
they fall unconscious. Thus the first stage
may exist without causing any alarm The
treatment of the first stage, which all persons
can readily recognize as the forerunner OF
sunstroke, as 1t occurs during the summer,
and comes on without the chill which ushers
in fever, is absolute rest, cooling applica-
tons to the skin and head, and medicine to
relieve the bowels.

All About Bonnets.

A London man is in trouble about
bonnets. He accompanied two ladies to
certain theater and paid for seats in
the dress circle. They were, however,
told that they must remove their bon.
nets, and, having done so, they were re.
quired 10 leave them in the cioak-room.
This they objected to, the applicant
having stated that he would not pay
another fee for the accommodation. He
was told that there would be no fee, but
a. he still objected he was refused ad.
mission. He then saw the manager
from whom he received a second refusal.
He objected to the system of payment
for every trifing addition to the com.
fort of the audience, and resisted the
demand upon that ground. Having
paid for his seats he had right 10 ad.
mission. He was offered the return OF
his money, but he refused it, and de.
termined to bring the matter before the
court by summons. 1t seems strange
that if the ladies were willing to be
troubled with their own bonnets il
should be objected to. The issue of the
affair is still undecided.

Statutes. Mr.. Baker was one OF the sixty
special agents. Recommendations for the
appointment Of George Howard, Assistant
clerk TO the Electoral Commission were

others. The recommendations were based
upon Howard's efficient service in compil-
ing the volume known as "The Count of

At two o'clock ex-Congressman Darrall
was to take the stand, but when the hour
came IL was learned that KELLOGG had
trotted him OF to see the President. The
announcement caused gentle sensation.

the newspapers that Butler wanted him ON

Cincinnati at night, he did not wish to ap.
pear to dodge.
Mr.. Butler denied that he wanted Mr..
Young to testify. " IL is good rule" said
he, never to believe anything you see in
the papers about me-"
Darrall having been kept out Of Office by
the adverse influence OF the Board, gave
willing evidence to the power of Wells
and Anderson at the White House in the
matter OF making and breaking slates II
seemed to afford him pleasure also to
testify that all the members of the late
Board were in Federal positions except
Cassanave, the cofiin-maker, who has not
sought office.
Late in the afternoon the Potter Com.
mittee had n short executive session TO con.

morning, but that he had paid no attention
to 1T. No conclusion was reached.

About Grave Robbers.

The indianapolis Me,0s, in publishing
an interviewer grave robbery" makes
member of the faculty of Indiana
Medical College say that, in his opinion,
" Gen. Harrison will never succeed i'm
bring to trial the parties connected with.
the robbing of his fathers grave; that
the matter will be too intricate for even
the most skillful detectives to unravel."
He says the bodies are paid for in a
roundabout way, the demonstration of
anatomy usually managing to keep sew
eral persons between himself and resur-
rectionist, the mystery of the payment
for the service being made as dense
as that ancient problem of Who gave
Peter Wilkins the moneyT 1t is often
managed in this way: A friend of the
body snatcher will go to the ianitor and
ask him for the loan of fifteen or twenty
dollars, whatever is the ruling price for
the awful product that had been fur
nished, who in turn will go to the demon
strator for the loan, the money being
handed over without question. 1t is said
the amount paid for the body is the least
partof Reimbursement to stealing corpses,
resurrectionists frequently making hauls
in Jewelry and fine clothing taken from
the subjects, which are delivered naked
to the colleges. For this reason it is
charged, they prefer to rob the graves of
the rich rather than those of the poor.

Telephone, MicrOphOne and Teleoscopo
phone.

In October Mr.. Edison expects to COM
plete his standard machine-a phonogrnb
intended for the counting-room. He is
continually perfecting the phonograph.
At it he works at least seven hours a
day. He is also experimenting with a
new instrument that he calls teleosco-
pophone. 1t is a sort of ear trumpet
which, when applied TO the ear, enables
one to hear distinctly the ordinary con-
versation of a man a mile distant. A
gentleman who has tested one of these
instruments said: I" | applied one to my
ear and could hear man talking who
was across a field, nearly mile away.
| heard every word he said. Afterward
he seemed TO raise his voice a little. and
when / saw him afterward, he said that
then he had shouted at the top of his
voice. There is no connecting wire
here, as in the telephone. Everything
depends on the wonderful properties of
the ear trumpet, which is constructed on
radically different principle from those
that have been in use so long. Bv this
instrument it is expected that deaf per
sons-except those that can't hear a
cannon fired at their elbow-may hear
anything said on the stage at the
theater."
MIR. Edison has invented an excellent
telephone, but the microphone as it is
figured and described seems like a diff
ferent thing. 1t transmits sound from a
speaker who may be some yards away,
and does not require the voice to be pro-
PEELED through mouth-piece. It's con-
struction is vastly more simple than any
of the telephones. Two sticks of willow
charcoal stuck into n board, and holding
n third stick endwise between them,
thus :, is the whole of the receiving
apparatus in one of the best forms,
The problem of using the telephone for
reporting public speakers, by sound, at
distance, should be easily solved by
the microphone, which, it is said, trans
mits the ordinary tones of the human
voice over short wire with such an in
crease of force as to be disagreeably
loud to the listener.

Big red ants are making themselves

their bodies more cussedness to the
square inch than the tiger of the Jungle.

They are not enemies to be despised.
either, as a person may know who is
bitten by one of them, their bite being
poisonous and painful. This morning
a Chinaman found a hill of these ants
on Sixth-street, and proceeded to poke
among the insects with his finger, prob
ably with view of investigating their
characteristics in the interest of science.
He knows all about red ants now. One
of the insects fastened on to his finger,
and the way that Chinaman howled
would have exploded double barreled
photograph. We don't understand the
Chinese language, but judging from the
manner in which this Chinaman gave
expression TO his feelings on the subject
of red ants, he probably exhausted all the
expletive invented by the late lamented
Mr.. COnfucius, and perhaps added few
OF his own invention.

chanics in his employ idling about after
one, when they ought to have returned

stroke than half q dozen or 80. The
next day the clock struck thirteen, and
