SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY.

THE number of telephones In the
United States Is estimated to have in
creased from $1,000 last year to 200, 900
now.
THE proof that petroleum sources are
almost worldwide appears to be abund-
ant, and its use would also seem well
nigh Goeval with civilization. In one Of
the Ionian Islands there is a spring
which has yielded petroleum more than
1000 years. The wells of Armenia, on
the banks of the FARO, were formerly
used for lighting the City of Genoa. In
Persia, too, near the Caspian Sea at
Baku, numerous springs of petroleum
have been known from the earliest times;
and those of Rangoon, on the Irawaddy,
are said to have yielded, before the gem
eral introduction of petroleum among
civilized nations, some 100000 hogs
heads of oil per annum.
IT is surprising how quickly the vege-
tation of many countries settled by Eu-
ropeans has been modified. A German
writer, describing the fora Of Chilli south
of the Valdivia River, states that the
scenery between the Rio Buna and its
winding aflluents reminds him very
strongly of home. In the park-like
prairies, associated with deoiduous
beeChes, are numerous scattering apple
trees, originally introduced from Eu-
rope. The apple tree has spread from
Valdivia to Osorno, and even crossed
the Andes into Northwestern Patagonia,
and spread thence eastward. Indeed, it
has become so widely distributed and so
general, that the Indians from the dis
tant regions of the Argentine rivers, Rio
Negro and Rio Colorado, are called
manzaneros or apple Indians.
HANS BUcKNER, a sldllful German
experimenter, announces a discovery of
great interest and importance in its
bearing upon the theory of evolution.
lie has succeeded in Transforming one
kind of microscopic fungi, which is a
dangerous agent of disease, into another
kind of fungi which is perfectly HARM
less. This remarkable result was reach
ed by a continuous treatment Of the fun
gi for six months, during which time
1,500 generations were produced. He
was through this process enabled to
transform the bacteria which cause
i" milzbrand," the dreaded inflamma-
ton of the spleen, into the heupilze,"
or harmless fungi of hay, and vice versa.
He also produced an organism, hitherto
unknown, which forms connecting link
between the above named fungi.

A Pertinent Suggestion.

One suggestion is certainly in order.
1t is meant only for those Democrats
who wish to be gentlemen, and who
have some sense of self-respect 1t is
about time to quit insulting and befoul-
ing the American people. No Demo-
cratic politician or journal can make
anything in that business. But when
the Democratic politician or editor
says that President Hayes is a fraud,
or that General Garfield is periurer or
bribe-taker, he no longer insults an in
dividual. He insults a majority of the
people of this country, and a very large
majority of the people of the Northern
States.
Much has been excused in respect to
President Hayes in consideration of the
honest dispute as to his election. We
can understand that the Democrat, who
could not see how Mr.. Hayes was legal
ly and honestly elected, may naturally
have felt very bitter about the final dc.
csion. In that spirit of protest he
began to appeal to the country four
years ago, and has been appealing ever
since. The American people have
heard all that he has had to say. 1t is
an insult to them to say that they have
now sustained the Republican party,
believing that it captured the
Presidency by fraud four years
ago. A large majority of the
Northern people are declared by the
Democratic editor to be unmitigated
scoundrels, when he asserts that the
party which they have now sustained,
and continued in power, obtained the
Presidency in 1876 by fraud, The plain
truth is that the people have decided
against the Democratic claim. They
hold that the elections in certain South
ern States were vitiated by Democratic
violence and fraud; that the country
was compelled to choose between q
President chosen by shOt-guns and
tissue ballots, and a President chosen
by the operation of stringent and arbi
trary laws enacted at the South for the
purpose of preventing such frauds; anC
that the choice of President HAYES wa,
in accordance with the real will of the
people as lawfully expressed. That il
the final verdict. After hearing all tha'
Democrats have said for four years, the
American people so decide. Common
decency and self-respect require Demo
Gratis to submit to the decision.
As to General Garfield, the case i
still more simple July, August, Sep
tember and October were crowded will
lies about him. Every Democrati,
newspaper placed before the people al
the evidpnce IL could Get, true or false
Ashtabula weekly telegraph. (Ashtabula, Ohio) 1880-1886, 1880-12-24

General Garfield had been guilty Of
dishonorable conduct. The people
have heard the case and rendered q
verdict. Rarely Is any man compelled
in his own defense 10 remain before the
jury four months, and to meet all the
evidence that one hundred thousand
hired attorneys can hunt up or manu-
facture during the time. But that is
the sort of trial General Garfield has
berne, and the verdict is in his favor
The people have declared, by their votes,
that they are convinced there was no
dishonor nor corruption in the matters
of which he was accused. The Demo-
cratic politician or editor who still
asserts the contrary, after the final YER
dict of the people, does not befoul Cen
eral Garfield he only throws mud at
the people. They have heard the case,
calmly, dispassionately, and with a
high sense of honor. He has suppressed
evidence, published falsehoods daily,
distorted facts, emptied his passions
and prejudices into his pretended iudg-
ments, and read the returns with a
sickening consciousness that no fat
office will reward the debasing and de-
graded work that he has done for party.
The verdict of the Democratic politi-
clan or editor dishonors no one but him
self. The verdict of the American peo-
pie finishes the case forever; they de-
clare that James A. Garfield is worthy
of the highest honor they have power
to bestow.
VIII it pay for Democrats to insult
the people any lOngerP They can as
certain by trial, if they choose. It is a
patient and long-suifering people, and
possibly it may like to have mud spat-
tered in its face by traitors, bulldozers,
liars, perjurers and forgers. 1t may
possibly conclude that men like Bar
mum and Randall represent integrity
and virtue, and that the millions who
voted for James A. Garfield are guilty
of sympathy with crime. If the Dem
ocrats think that the American people
will tolerate blackguardism of this sort
without resenting it, they are mistaken.
But no Democrat who has self-respect
will hereafter indulge in foul abuse Of
the man whom the people of this coun.
try have adjudged worthy of the seat of
Washington and Lincoln.-NetO York
Tribune

Preferrlng Death to Liberty.

THE St. Vincent de Paul Penitentiary
here has in it number of defaulters Of
good families undergoing terms of from
two TO seven years. Among them are
Jean Satem Paquette, ex-cashier of the
Hochelaga Bank, and Alexis Tourville,
ex-bOok-keeper to a merchant. Their
terms expire soon. AS the time for
Paquette's release approached he be-
came moody, and at last refused to
touch food He persisted in his refusal
for several days. Yesterday morning,
under the influence of threats that nour-
ishment would be forced into him by
violence, he began to eat again.
To-day Paquette heard feeble groans
proceeding from Tourvile's cell, which
adjoins his. He called one of the
guardians, who found Tourville lying in
u pool of blood, his throat horribly
gashed. He had tried TO kill himself by
means of broken glass from a small mir
ror he had been permitted to have in
his cell. Physicians were summoned
md the wounds were sewed up, but his
recovery is very doubtful. It's thought
that he dreaded the idea Of living to
meet his friends again, particularly the
ady to whom he had been engaged. -

CuriOsitIes of KleptOmanIa.


SOME curious cases of kleptomania
are mentioned in ChanJerS's Journal
A lady was affected with this monoma-
MIA so strongly that, upon her trial for
theft, she stated that she had such a
mad longing to possess herself of every
thing she saw that if she were at church
she could not refrain from stealing from
the altar. DIR. Rush, the American
physician, informs us that a woman who
was exemplary in her obedience to the
moral law, except the Eighth Command
ment, was so addicted TO larceny that,
when she could take nothing more valu-
able, she would often, at the table of q
friend, secretly fill her pockets with
bread. Lavater also states that doc
tor Of medicine could not leave his pa
TENTS room without taking something
away unobserved; and his wife searched
his pockets and returned to their own
ers the knives, thimbles, scissors, etc,
which her husband distracted. The
wife Of another physician had so strong
propensity TO steal that on making
purchases she eudeavOred to take some
thing away that did not belong to her;
and two German countesses appear to
have been guilty Of the same vice. The
almoner OF regiment of Prussian cui-
rassiers, a we'll educated man, frequent
ly on parade stole the handkerchiefs of
the officers; and one unfortunate man
was so far under the influence of klepto
mania that, being nigh unto death, he
actually secreted the snuff-box of his
cOntessorl
As TO modern instances of this species
OF insanity, we knew a parish Clergyman
who stole every article he could lay his
hands on. If out at dinner he pocket
ed scraps of bread, table-napkins or
anything. When lodging at hotels he
carried off pieces Of soap and the ends
Of candles from his bedroom. His lar
cenies became so notorious that he was
ultimately brought before the Church
courts and turned out of his living.
DIR. Gall mend ms an instance of two
citizens Of Vienna who on becoming
insane were well known in the hospital
for an extraordinary propensity to steal,
although they had before lived ire,
proaohable lives. They wandered about
from morning TO night and picked up
whatever they could lay their hands on,
which they carefully hid in their rooms
Abnormal confoTmations of the head
accompanied with an imbecile under,
standing, are often the cause of klepto.
mania. Gall and Spurzheim saw in Bern
prison a boy twelve years old, who il
described as "ill organized and rick
ety." who could never avoid stealing
An ex.cOmmissary Of police Mt Toulouse
was condemned to eight years impris
oy,p,ant a nd hard lohnr and IN tha nil,
lory for having stolen some plate while
in office. He did not deny the crime
but persisted 10 the last in singular
kind Of a defense. He attributed the
crime to mental arrangement caused
by wounds he had received at Marseille'
10 1915. Another case is related of q
young man who, after being severely
wounded in the temple, for which ht
was trepanned, manifested an uncon
querable propensity for theft, which wa
