The national board of health has add
dressed letter to Secretary Thompson,
asking the advice and cooperation of
the navy department in carrying into
execution the act approved April Is,
1879, providing for the construction OF
refrigerating and disinfectiDg ship.
The board has duly considered the mec-
its of refrigeration as means OF dls!n-
fiction of vessels infected with yellow
fever, and has decided that, while 1t Is
not sufficient probable that such artiic-
ial refrigeration as could be obtained in
aG infected vessel Mt southern port
during the summer would so thorough
" disnfect it rs TO obviate the necessi-
ty of taking other precautions, yet 1t
might be of great assistance, especially
IN permitting the discharge of the cargo,
and thorough cleansing of the ship with
out danger to those engaged in the
work. The question as to what partic-
uar kind Of ship or refrigeraung appa-
ratus is best adapted to attain the OBJ
jects aimed at by the bill is one which,
in the opinion of the board, it is not COM
petent to decide. 1t therefore requests
the secretary of the navy to organize a
special board or commission of naval
experts and engineers, TO whom all the
plans and specifications can be referred,
and who shall report as speedily AS pos
sihle upon the subject, Secretary
Thompson, in pursuance of this request,
has designated the following board of
naval oth GERS to examine into and re
port upon the subject: Chief Engineer

Missouri is preparing to adopt the
bell-punch for bar-rooms. The advo-
Gates Of the bell-punch system of taxing
liquor sellers claim that it will be more
equitable than the present arbitrary
State tax of $50 year, and that it will
cause the number Of low whisky shops
to decrease and the consumption of
beer to increase. The St. Louis DIS
patch estimates that every year 60O,0 900
barrels of beer are brewed IN st. Louis,
and that one-third of this product is sold
in the city at retail. Two hundred
thousand barrels, at half a cent glass
-$3 barrel-would yield 5000, 1000. The
amount derived from alcoholic liquors
at cent glass would probably be as
much more, making total Of 81 ,2OO,-
900. The Dispatch adds that this is a
large income, but the question is, Would
it ever be collected?

A HEKPSTEAD, Texas, dispatch Of
May 9TH says a fearful as3as-
sination occurred here yesterday
AS the congregation, after being dis.
missed, were coming out of the Metho-
dist church, an old man named John
Steele walked out first. AT the church
door ne was suddenly confronted by j.
f. Kirby, who drew a six-shooter, and.
without saying word, fired. The
first ball penetrated Steele's breast.
He staggered back and fell
inside the church door. After he
was down, the assassin fired two more
balls into his head. The cause of the
murder was that, during the war, klr-
by's father and a man named Nc Ma
hon commanded a company Of home
guards for hunting and hanging Texas
union men. Mcmahon and his men
one night surrounded Steele's house,
took him prisoner, and came
near hanging him. They afterward
ran him otfirom his family. He swore
vengeance, and after the war fought
duel with Mcmahon, and, meeting old
man Kirby, shot him dead in the Office
of the United States provost marshal at
Houston; since then Steele has feared
assassination. His murdered is the
son Of the man he killed. Kirby sur
rendered himself, well knowing he
would escape punishment.
