Reproduction Of Malaria IN Animals.

Malaria in its widest and perhaps
best Interpretation merely means bad
air. and in that sense is one of the
most active and prevailing sources of
disease. But marsh air and the air
coming from pure and simple vegeta.
BILE decomposition are generally under
stood when we speak Of the causes of
malaria. Marsh gas, or light carbu-
retted hydrogen. will not produce fever
and ague; neither will sulphurctted nv.
drogen. which is often combined with
it. But the vapors arising from marsh
and damned up pond waters are found
to contain portions of aquatic plants,
also spores offungi in great abundance.
. membranous and gelatinous substance
often called nostoc, also iniusorial mol.
lusks, and other things.
But we are no longer in doubt about
the cause OF malaria. Professors Klebs
and CrudSlli have succeeded in produc-
Ing the symptoms Of malaria poisoning
in animals BY the simultaneous iniec.
ton of watery extracts from marshv
soil. They have also isolated the active
material, which il the true generator of
the disease, and suppose it to be . liv-
Ing organism. The fungi bacilH nnalarie
are small rods, from one two.t thou.
sandth to one seven .thousandth of 4
millimetre in length. which grow into
long twisted threads. The fungus il
markedly aerobt1ic that is, IL air ia
excluded It dies. The injection Of this
fungi into healthy animals always gives
rise to symptoms Of intermittent fever.
with enlargement Of tho spleen; and il
u possible to produce in rabbits mala,
rlous infection Of every form that il

Gamblcrs' Superstitions.

Enough has been written about
the superstitions of gamblers to fill
volumes, but the subject will never
be exhausted 80 long as the passion
for gaming exists. Among "Glean-

have recently appeared the follow
ing instances OF the lunacy to
which gamblers are subject: IA

sits down without u talisman in

indefatigable votaries of roulette,

one of them remarked, was in deep
afHiction on account of the death of
his only son. Very sad, indeed,

AFTER the national debt is paid and
the bonds are all taken up, what kind Of
securities will the national banks de-
post to secure their circulation? This
question was raised by Mr.. George S. Coe
in his paper on "The Currency of the
Future" read before the late bankers
convention at Niagara Falls. MIR. COe
thinks security can be obtained under
the national banking act as it is, with
additional provisions that the circulation
of banks be limited to One-half or three.
fourths of the cash capital paid in; that
i'm case of bank failure the nOte-hOlders
shall be preferred creditors, and that the
notes shall draw interest at at extra

The Chinese students.

From special telegram to the Chicago
Inter-Ocean we learn that last Monday
Yung Wi Chang, the Assistant Commits
sioner of Education, started for China
with another party of Chinese students,
numbering forty. 1t is said also that in
September Commissioner Woo will re-
turn with the rest, and the establish
ment at Hartford will be closed up and
deserted. Yung Wi Chang says that he
thinks his government will eventually
send on another lot of boys to be educat-
ed. He denies that his government is
removing the students because they are
becoming Americanized, but he says the
boys came here when about 10 years old,
and now have grown till they all range
from from 81 to 10 years of age, and II
| is about time that some use was being
made of them. They will all be put to
work on the new telegraph line from
Pekin to Tein Tsin. Some of them, he
says who have been here since they were
10 years old, have forgotten their own
language to such an extent that they
can with difficulty carry on conyersa-
tiOn in it.
He says further that the Chinese gov
eminent has decided to adopt military
school system modelled after West Point
and it will be located at Tien Tsin. Oul
tactics and manual of arms will be
adopted.
