Cholera in Asia.

Accounts from India state that the
cholera has been making fearful havoc
among the pilgrims returning from the
Hurdwar fair, and is being spread by
them through northern India. tits as
serted that between 20, 900 and 80, 000hil
men from the HimaIayan districts near
Nynee Tai died on their homeward Jour
ney. Several cases, most Of them fatal,
appeared among the Fifteenth hussars
almost Immediately after their arrival at
Meerut from Candahar, and it is sup
posed that the outbreak is due TO some
men having travelled from Mooltan in
railway carriages which had been used
by infected pilgrims. The disease has
appeared in most cities Of the Punjab,
and the fear Of the spread Of the epi-
demic to Peshawar has induced the au-
thorities to remove the greater portion
Of the garrison there. IL is suggested
that the English government might well
consider whether it is not time to put an
entire stop to those great religious fairs,
seeing that they almost invariably form
centers whence pestilence spreads
throughout the country, and that the
effective sanitary control of the masses
Of pilgrims assembledsishlmost impossi-

AFL0AT AND ASHORE

Nobody was in the habit Of calling
Emily Travers beauty, and few ever
gave her second glance in passing yet
when you happened to linger at the
gate for any reason, and saw her stand
ing there on the grass-plat feeding her
doves, you would at once declare that q
prettier sight than that you never saw
in your life. But it was not Emily who
ever gave such a subject a second
thought; busy, bright, and happy as
she was, the whole world seemed beau
tiful, and that was quite enough for her,
without stopping to consider whether or
not she was a part OF that world. Nor
did Norman Macpherson ever stop to
think on the subject Emily had been q
part of his world ever since he had had
any, and what the world would be to him
without her was something that never
entered his head. He remembered the
day when, little chubby urchin three
years old, he had been taken over the
way to welcome the new baby there, and
had asked to see her wings; he remem-
bered when he dragged her up and down
the garden paths in his cart, and spilled
her. out, and she refused to scream he
remembered when he was fighting with
Saunders, and getting worsted, how she
arrived upon the scene with stone be-
tween her two arms that would have
been Saunders death if it had happened
to hit him in fact, he remembered no
time when she was not part Cf him
self, when he had not sat with his arms
about her waist, when he had not kissed
her at meeting and parting, when he
had not left every other girl for her, and
would have been amazed if she had not
welcomed him as matter of course.
After he went away to the naval academy,
Emily's letters were something that he
looked forward to twice week as un-
failingly as to Wednesdays and Satur-
days themselves +; and when he made his
flying visit home, it was to Emily that
he went with the recital OF all his hopes
and angers and joys. Emily, he said
once, in a startled way, Il believe l say
my prayers to you.
Being in this state Of mind about
sweet Emily Travers, you can imagine
his wrathful CONSERVATION when, on re-
turning home from his first cruise, hav-
ing been for some time without letters,
and coming in by the long window in
stead Of the door. he saw fellow lean
ing over her chair-a tall, dark, hand
some man, handsome but for scar
across his forthead-leaning over her
chair and holding her hand, while her
backward and upward gaze was as
brightly fond as his manner was devoted.
For a moment Norman stood spellbound,
and as he stood, he heard Emily say
'Oh, how can you ask me, Howard
dear2 You know we never, never can
be parted.
To think was something to which Mr..
Norman Mcpherson never condescended.
he rather excelled in feeling, Aud just
now he felt as il the only thing in the
world to do was to knock this varlet
down accordingly he took one step and
did il. And then, seiEing Bmily's hand
himself, only to throwit from him with
a wild and angry outcry at herperhdy,
he was gone and he never knew again

No barber knoweth whom he may

The solid citizen turned his face to
glance at the other, and the barber no.
ticed a reddening OF his face.
Going on vacation this summer

shave the young man.

Conversation ceased here, the solid
man got out of his chair, took brushing
and sat down, and when the clerk arose
from his chair and turned around snow
balls would have looked black beside
his face. He tried TO bow and speak,
but something wouldn't let him, and
when he started to put on his coat he
held it tails up and collar down. He
was still struggling with it when the
solid man rose up, looked around and
walked out, saying never word. The
BARRIERS wet the young mans head and
held cologne to his nose, but he walked
sideways when he went out, and thee
was an uncertain wobble to his knees

Traces Of Extinct People In the
Territories,

That which seems the most perplexing
to the antiquarian is the fact that the
ruins OF Arizona, New Mexico and Col
orado bear no resemblance whatever in
their construction TO antiquities found
elsewhere in our country, nor TO those
OF old Mexico, Yucatan or South Ameri.
ca, with one exception Of the Casa
Grande, twenty-five miles above the
Pima village, upon the CHA river. Here
the walls and doorways slope toward the
ceiling in way resembling the ancient
structures Of Central America. The
Casa Grande has 70 often been described
in works OF travels that all interested in
antiquarian researches have become IA.
miliar with its appearance. Its history
must forever battle the curious.
1t was first visited and mentioned by
a Spanish adventurer, Cobeza de Vaca,
in 1886, and later by Padre Marco de
Mia, in 1887, and was afterward visited
by part of Coronada's army, in 1540,
who found it in pretty much the same
state of ruin as it remains at present,
with the exception Of being several sto-
ries higher.
Here, too, are found the ruins Of the
Montezuma canal, which is we'll marked
for more thaA twer5y miles, of immense
size and admirably constructed.
In the Gila basin are ruins of other
cities and edifces showing remains of
greater magnitude than that of the Casa
Grande. The Pima Indians, who now
occupy the valley, and were found there
by the Spaniards in 1886, had no knowl-
edge Of the people by whom these ruins
were built, although their tradition at
that time extended back several hundred
years.
In Arizona the stone book of geolo-
gy also opens its most inviting papers
to the savant. Upon the tops of the
loftiest mountains are found water-worn
stones, and fossilized shells, while many
interesting specimens and well-defned
geological stratas are offered for investi-
cation at almost every turn.

A RrOtber,S Trihute.

The eloquent materialistic lecturer,
Col. Rob't Ingersoll, on the occasion of
his brothers burial recently, spoke thus
poetically Of death, although his remarks
we're not founded on the grand old Chris
tian belief which extends beyond the
grave:
My Friends--I am going to do that
which the dead oft promised he would
do for me. The loved and loving broth
er, husband, father, friend, died where
manhood's morning almost touches
noon, and while the shadows still were
falling towards the west. He had not
passed on life's highway the stone that
marks the highest point, but being
weary for moment he laid down by the
wayside and, using his burden for a
pillow, fell into that dreamless sleep that
kisses down his eyelids still. While yet
in love with life and raptured with the
world he passed to silence and pathetic
dust. Yet, after all, it may be best,
just in the happiest, sunniest hour of all
the voyage, while eager winds are kiss
ing every sail, to dash against the un-
seen rock, and in an instant hear the
pillows roar above sunken ship. For
whether in mid sea or 'mong the break
ers of the farther shore, wreck must
mark OF last the end of each and all.
And every life, no matter if its every
hour is rich with love and every moment
jeweled with joy, will at it's close be-
come tragedy as sad and deep and dark
as can be woven Of the warp and woof OF
mystery and death.

Bee stings for the Cure of GOut.

Several articles and letters have been
printed in German papers of late laud-
ing the efficacy OF the sting of the COM
mon bee as a cure for gout. Here is
one of the latest Of these communica.
tions, which appeared recently; Il was
lying in bed, says the writer, suffering
from heavy'attack of gout, accompa-
MED with violent pains in my left foot,
when I CHANGED to read in o newspaper
an article describing how gout may be
cured by the stings OF bees. I at once
determined to try the remedy, and soon
contrived small box by means of which
captured bee could be applied to the
afflicted part. 1 then let my foot be
stung by three bees in succession, each
bee leaving his sting behind in my flesh.
After few minutes these stings were
extracted; and when the pain caused by
them had hubsided ] found that the
gouty pain had also left me. On the
same day l left my bed, and on the NOR
row was able to walk about. For some
little time my footwas slightly inAamed,
and 1 experienced some burning sensa-
tion; but in four or five days this left
me, and l was completely recovered.

Colleges OuarreIing Over a REQUEST.

Asa Packers will, recently probated
in Philadelphia, contained the following
clause: 'And to the trustees Of Wash.
ington college, Lexington, Va, the sum
of $4,000, and I also direct that the
bond of the Washington college, Licking.
ton. Va., for 81, 900 shall besurrendered
and cancelled by the trustees, thus ma
king the legacy to that college $4,000.
A letter has been received from the Sec
retary of the trustees of Washington
and Lee University, at Lexington, Va,
saying that is the institution which
Judge Packer really intended to benefit,
and the one which issued the bond now
in the possession of the estate. On the
other hand, the superintendent Of the
Virginia Military Institute, State insti-
tuition, also situated at Lexington, lays
claim to the whole of the legacy, saying
that it was intended for that institution,
inasmuch as the 81 900 bond referred to
was in reality bond of the Virginia
Military Institute, and not one Of
Washington college, which has been
known as Washington and Lee Univer.

General Robert q. Lee.
