A Osutiueds's Deadly CLAWS.

Several Mexicans were in camp at the
mouth of Memphis Greek. Utah Terri
tory, and were lying about the fire,
when one of them, Telstore Crucas, saw
a large centipede, fully nine inches
long, travelling slowly over his leg.
Knowing that the least motion would
make it sink its deadly claws into his
skin, without moving his leg he get out
his revolver, and waited until the beast
had almost reached his knee, when
slowly putting the mouth of the pistol
to his head he pulled and the centipede
was gone. But centipede's claws are
quicker than gunpowder, and Crucas
began to cramp in few minutes, the
track of the reptile along his leg turned
brownish yellow, and the place where
it was killed was swelled up frightfully.
Crucas rapidly grew worse, and in a
little over four hours afteTward died in
great agony. But the most singular
part of the story is that the bullet from
Crucas' pistol cut small nick in the
fore-leg of a mule that was tethered
near by. and at daylight next morning
the mule was also dead, with his leg so
swollen that the skin had burst in sew
eral places. Canon County Hgtldnte.

Hay-Fever.

A new view of this disease has come
to be entertained, the result of more
careful study of it. 1t is found to be
nervous in its origin; to come not from
without but from within, though it may
have numerous exciting causes. DIR.
Beard, of New York, who has led in
the more recent investigations, says that
those who thoroughly understand the
nerve-theory of hay-fever are prepared
for the discovery of almost any conceiv-
able manifestation of this wonderful
malady.
Though he has seen or studied over
eight hundred cases, every season brings
to his attention novel, unexpected and
unimaginable caprices in its history and
symptoms. He adds; " In the family
of raeuroseSr Tnerve diseased to which
hay-fever belongs, nothing can surprise
nothing is anomalous, nothing is lncon-
sistent. With the evolution of the mod
ern constitution, new shapes and type
of symptoms are every year coming un-
der observation"
While eminent physicians have looked
upon running of the nose, sneezing,
cough, asthma and aversion to light, as
essential to the disease, DIR. Beard has
known case in which the only symp-
tom was Inflammation of one eye, COM
ing on suddenly every summer. Anoth-
er was characterized only by an eczem-
atous eruption of the face, coming on,
year after year, between the goth and
25th of August. If the eruption was
suppressed by treatment an attack of
asthma followed.
In another case, the only symptom
was spasm of the esophagus; in anoth-
er, loss of voice; in another, the
attack was preceded for two or
three days by profound mental depress-
ion, during which immense quantities
of alcohol could be taken without any
apparent effect.
" Like all the nerve-maladies of the
family to which it belongs, hay-fever is
| by far the most common in the North,
and it regularly decreases in frequency
as we go South. - Youths Companion.
