Parasites in the Throat.

The Elmira, N. Y, advertiser" gives
a strange account Of little girl aflict-
ed with the diphtheria. In looking
into the child's throat the mother saw
a micrococcus moving, which she re-
moved, together with another which
are now on exhibition in city drug
store, and being discussed by the med
ical fraternity. They are easily seen
by the naked eye, though o glass helps
one to the ",rue inwardness" Of the crit
ters. The largest one is fully one quar-
ter of an inch long, covered with hair,
with head something like a caterpil-
Ter, tapering body and long hairy tail.
Its body is formed in rings; its color ia
about that of one of those dark yellow
"thousand legged" worms found under
old boards and stones. The smaller one
is about one-sixteenth Of an inch long,
being whitish in color, and requiring
the glass TO bring out its "bsauty" ol
conformation. 1t is not . pleasant
thought to imagine such things in your
throat, but they get there, and from
there into the blood, heart and other
organs, producing paralysis and sudden
death when least expected. They are
vegetable parasites and exist in larg Q
colonies in the diphthsriaic tmembrane.
DR.. J. M. Flood is considerably inter-
ested in the mammoth bacteria that
have come under his observation, which
greatly exceed in size anything be ever
saw.

VIII Pay His Creditors.

K. H. Cook, the city contractor, who
it was reported had left our city and
carried away his horses with him, has
returned, and intends to pay all his
creditors. He simply asks that time
be given him. His reason for going away
was because he was afraid his horses
would be levied upon and sold under
execution, thereby paying one creditor
at the expense Of all the rest. He has
been using all the money with the ex-
ception of sufficient to pay his men and
buy horse feed, to pay his debts, and
has given orders upon the City Treas
urer, Francis Vincent, who paid it out
to the creditors on their order, and he
has been doing 80 tor several months
past. In his contract for opening Ninth
street he came across bed Of stone,
which he has had to blast, and would
do we'll enough il allowed the stone,
but the city claims and takes it, which
Of course is a great expense to him in
blasting.

An Important Turf Event.

1t is reported that the fsnous Eng
lish race horse Peter, the favorite Of
the Derby, whose engagements have
been Cancelled by the death Of his own
er, has been purchased by parties who
will send him over to the United States
to run against the fastest American
bred three old next autumn. Mr.. Pierre
Lorillard, who has charge Of the
matter and is to have charge of the
colt, offered on account of the owners
match Of lO,OOO-S2,50O forfeit-to
run Peter one mile and half over the
Jerome Park course at the autumn
meeting Of the American Jockey Club
against any other three year old, the
same to BE- named at the post. This
challenge has been accepted by Mr..
James r. Keene, and is believed to be
sufficient to insure the appearance Of
Peter.

Mauch Chunk, March 1S.-The So
called sulphur shower" Of the Le-
high Valley has baen fully investigs-
ted and explained by Dr. B. s. Irwin,
OF this place, and Mr.. Eugene Run, Of
Bethlehem. They say that the powder
is simply the pollen from species Of
pine, caught up by the wind from
Southern or New Jeysey forests. Float
ing in high current Of the atmosphere,
it came in contact with snowstorm O.
YER the Lehigh Valley, and was then
deposited as found. This explanation,
they say, can be relied upon, as the

Educating Our Girls,

The present discussion of the higher
education of young women, as also the
question as to opening our colleges and
universities to them, is important, but
not most important. But few girls can
at best, be thus educated, and we are con
cerned more for the general drift Of oul
school and home instruction, which is tc
give character to the daughters, wives anc
mothers of the nation.
1t is evident that in view Of the new
strain that is now put upon our girls, alike
by their privileges and burdens, a suitable
education must be secured to them. The
old routine of household discipline that
trained girls mainly to be cooks anc
seamstresses will not do now, nor can we
be for moment content with the new
fashioned rage for accomplishments, that
aims to fit them for the marriage marke,
by dress, the dance, and the piano. Our
girls have too much refinement in their
make and their manners to be drudges
and they have too much mind and oppor
tunites for using it to be dolls or parrots
or music boxes. Life is becoming iol
them somewhat serious, and they are
looking for teachers and helpers to guide
them in the new calls upon their power:
and patience.

Niagara Falls Lettrs.)

The managers OF Prospect park have
contracted with the Telegraph supply
company for the apparatus for generating
electricity to supply seventeen lamps.
The electricity will be generated by water
power. The lamps will be SO disposed as
not only to light the park and the main
street of the village, but it is hoped to
produce some fine effects upon the water
fall. For this purpose it is believed that
one lamp may be kept burning under the
American fall. 1t is known to every
visitor at the fall that on clear and still
nights, when the moon is nearly at its
full, beautiful lunar bow is formed. As
this can only be seen at rare intervals,
however, comparatively few people have
seen it. 1t is believed that by the use Of
the electric lamps, each of which is OF 200
candle power, and which may be moved
and adjusted as the wind may make it
necessary, the rainbow colors may be al
ways produced in the form of very
brilliant electric bow. Some expert
ments made here with the calcium light
three years ago, satisfied the managers
that their plan is practicable.

Advice to n Young Man.
burlington Hawkeye.)

Young man, when you see anything
YOU want, ask for it like man. If you
want to borrow FIVE dollars Of man, or
if you only want to marry his daughter,
don't side up to him and hang on to your
hat and talk politics and religion and
weather and tell old, stale Jokes whereof
you can't remember the point until you
worry the old man into nervous irrita-
ton. Go at him with full head Of steam
on and your bow ports open, like an iron
clad pulling for shore battery. Snort
and paw and shake your head if you feel
like it, no matter if it does make him look
astonished. Better astonish him than
bore him. Go into his heart or his pock-
et-book, or both, it amounts to the same
thing, like brindle bull with a curl in
his forehead, charging merino dress,
ewes on fire, tail up and the dust flying.
Then you'll fetch him. Or possibly, he
may fetch you. But never mind: you'll
accomplish something and show you arn't
afraid to speak what's on your mind.
And that's great deal more than you
would accomplish by the other method
You needn't be cheeky, but you ought to
be straight forward.
