How Yellow Fever Patients Die.

Many die easily go calmly off to sleep,
hardly having strength to raise the eyelids
but too many die a horrible death. The
struggle is terrible. They have to be held
down in bed until the last gasp, and the
scene after death is too horrible for des-
cnption. Another popularity of it is when
the patient is In a state of dilirium and is
prevented from getting out of bed often he
makes a desperate effort to bite those who
are holding him. have a lively recollec-
ton of thus having to exert nearly all my
strength to hold yellow fever patient in
bed and keep him from biting my face.
Wnen he recovered his reason he wept with
anger at not being able to get up, but at last
said;
"Hello! Is that you? Let us lie down on
the pillow and go to sleep"
was glad to do so. Entire families have
been swept away. When the fever once en-,
ters a dwelling it seems almost impossible
/ for any member of the family to escape
The dirtiest people often escape, and the
cleanliest are often stricken down. .-Letta

The Grant Boom Analysed.

The Grant boom derives its strength from
two sources; from those people who demand
a strong President to enforce the laws, and
from the politicians, who want a weak Pres
ident, entirely subservient to their bidding.
1t would seem absurd that requirements so
inconsistent could be satisfied by one man ;
yet Gen. Grant seems to do SO. His mill
tary record is that of a firm. strong man,
persistent to the point of obstinacy; his civil
record is that of man more completely
ruled by the politicians around him than
any President OF the United States since
the Government was established. ncon-
sistent as this may seem, the combination
of strength in a military capacity with
weakness in a civil capacity is by no means
uncommon.

Rev Alex Wright. a chaplain In tn e
United States Army, narrates to the
readers of the Steubenville (Ohio) Press
a romance of the late Princess Monica, q
daughter of Spotted Tail. A short time
ago M ohica visited Fort Laramie to look
upon the palefaces and their manner of
living. She was shown around by a
handsome young lieutenant of cavalry
reg g'ment, and in thanking him for his
courtesy, she ackno wledged with charm
ing naivete, that she loved him. The
surprised and fiattered officer told her
that she must not love him as his heart
was placed among the palefaced girls In
| an Ohio town. Monica visited the fort
on the day following that which she lost
| her freedom, and 30 many weeks in
PLAIN, neat attire, the poor girl sal
throughout the afternoon on the door
step of the offi cers' quarters. The great
Sioux Chief, whose warriors outnumber
the conduct of his best beloved daughter
and sent her to little camp in the
Rocky Mountains. One day courier
arrived at the chiefs camp, with tidings
that Nor ca was dying. Spotted Tail
rode with all haste TO her side, and heard
her farewell injunction: my chief, live
with the palefaces IN peace and bury
Monica on the hill before the fort" Cen
eral Mavnc der, commander at the post; /;
Col. Bullock, the post trader. and Chap
lain Wright gave the body Christian bur-
ial. The grave Is now point of interest
to travellers as Fort Laramie IS approach
ed on the Cheyenne road. General May
nader testified as to the truthfulness of
the girls death from a broken heart and
to the effect it bad upon the Sioux.

ONLY THE LORDS PRAYER.

There appeared in the HERALD, few days ago. a
complaint by gentleman named Foster to the effect
that his children had received religious instruction
in one Of the Eighth ward schools On the letter
coming under the notice Of City Superintendent
Jasper that gentleman instituted an investigation,
the result Of which, he establishes the fact that
the complaint is unfounded. 1t seems, Mr.. Jasper
says that in Primary School No. 80 three classes did
not assemble in the main room owing to the room
being too small. and in one of these classes Miss
Breen. the teacher has been in the habit OF opening
the exercises with the Lords Prayer, in saying
which the pupils join. This, Mr. Jasper says, is all
the ground there is for charging that children
ceive religious instruction. He reports that the
teacher. who is of the same religious faith as Mr..
Foster, certainly had intention to affect the
ligious training of the children.

PROPAGATION OF THE FAITH.

The annual sermon for the Association of the
Propagation Of the Faith was preached last evening
in st. Vincent de Paul's (Roman Catholic) Church.
West Twenty-third street. by Rev. F. Glackmeyer,
s. j. This association first organized in France
about one hundred years ago, and has now its
branches in every portion Of the civilized world
The object, the name implies, is the
propagation Of the Roman Catholic faith in
all countries. It's members are expected to
subscribe one cent per week, aud though
this sum seems ridiculously small, the number OF
subscribers is great that with the aggregate
amount collected throughout the world the associa
ton is able to support college at Rome aud send
missionaries to all parts of the globe AS the society
originated in France the annual sermon is always
given in the French Roman Catholic Church of this
city, of which Rev. E. Aubril is rector, and Rev. g.
Septer. who is the authorized collector OF all dona
tOns to the society in the archdiocese OF New York
is assistant pastor. In the sermon last evening
Father Glackmeyer told the story of the Catholic
missionaries, their labors aud their privatons.

affirmed? Simply that every club becomes the
