The New York Sunday Mercury says
the discovery has been made Of a rene
dy for hydrophobia. This remedy is
known as wooraria, most viruent
poison, obtained only in South Ameri-
ca. The Mercury cites cure in the
case of a man named James Nc
Carthy, of Jersey City, who was bitten
several weeks ago by dog.
The bite developed into hydrophobla
and the attending physicians finally
decided to treat the patient with
wooraria. Three hypodermic injec'
tons into the arm Of one third Of a
grain each time were administered, an
Improvement being apparent after
each one. De speedily recovered with
no i'll effect from the poison.

Natural stone RefrigeratOrs.

In Preston county, West Virginia,
has been discovered a natural curiosi-
ty, which is attracting considerable
attention. 1t is called en- ice mOun>
tain, and the wonder has been how
the ice can last year after year in It's
latitude and altitude. A late scientif-
ic investigator has made it very plain.
The surface is covered with loose un-
stratifed rocks to the depth of two or
three feet, and the rocks are thickly
oyergrown with moss. At the time Of
The investigation the thermometer
stood at 80 degrees in the sun, 80 de-
grees in the shade, and at IS degrees
when placed in the crevices of the
rocks. The air among the rocks Is
like the chill breath Of an ice house.
The investigator pronounced the for>
nation and covering natural stone
refrigerator. The porous structure OF
the rocks admits through the moss
covering a considerable amount of
water, which in6ltrating would neces>
sarily form ice, just as it is found be
meath the rock and moss covering,
which forms non-conductor of heat.
The theory of its origin is that a quan>
tity of wiuter-made ice was at some
period suddenly covered by rocks, and
this nest egg of frost causes the con-
tinual freezing of the infiltrated water
there is evidently a large body of ice
in the mountain, and the formation is
perpetual, while the waste is little or
nothing. There is similar ice noun
tain in Hampshire county, on the
Hudson river, and it is similarly ex-
planned.

CAMP BURKE.
A Camp on WheeIs--Names of
its Occupants. etc.

1t was our good fortune yesterday
to be one of a party who visited the
various camps, and while all look
well, are clean and healthy, and the
occupants contented, we wish to make
special mention of she railroad camp
named after Mr.. Burke, Superintend-
ent of the Mississippi and Tennessee
railroad. The occupants are mostly
officers and employees Of the Mississip-
pi and Tennessee railroad. and live in
passenger and box cars located on a
temporary side track about one mile
south of Whitehaven, Tenn, and
about nine miles from Memphis.
The grounds and surroundings are
pleasant and attractive. A well re-
Gently dug, and about fifty feet deep,
furnishes an ample supply of good,
cool water. The "office" of the com
pany is located in passenger car,
from which the seats have been re-
moved, and various desks, chairs, ia
bles. etc.. give it the appearance of a
roomy and comfortable Madison street
Office. 1t is occupied principally by
Mr.. A. j. Knapp, general ticket and
freight agent of the road, and Mr.. S.
H. Lamb, secretary and treasurer.
A telegraph instrument in the 'Office"
furnishes the medium for rapid COM
munication with all points on the
line.
The families of the various em>
ployes arc well and comfortably fixed
up in the various cars, with bedsteads,
stoves, tables, chairs, and other furni-
ture, and are evidently well satisfied
and as happy and contented as is pos
sible while temporarily exiled from
their homes. OF the ninety-four
people at this place, there has so far
been 10 case of sickness of any kind,
a record hard to equal at any time or
place.
The entire "camp" consists in all Of
about twenty cars and may be said to
be "a camp on wheels. "-Memphis
