A Sensation I'm medical Circles ut

Special to the Herald.
Waco, Feb. pa great sensation was
caused here this morning in medical circles
by the discovery of what was then considered
a genuine case of hydrophobia. The suffered
is a young French woman from New Orleans,
whose husband deserted her here q few
months ago. She Lad terrible conyulsons,
frothed slightly, snapped viciously at objects,
shuddered at the sight Of water and said
several times take that dog OFF, 1t took
an immoderate quantity of opiates to quiet
her. Eight physicians called 10 see her early
in the day and none would give a positive
opinion, but some thought it hydrophobia. In
"a rational moment -he said she had been bitten
by vicious dog five years ago. Later in the
day she raved about her husband and a sick
sister, and bsmoaned being away from home
and among strangers, and gavo evidence Of
the deepest melancholy. The convulsions
Almost ceased, and tonight physicians pro-
nounce it very aggravated case of hys-
terics. Fer temperature was as one time
l15 1s2 degrees. 1t is now hoped she will
recover. She is timid, nervous petite
woman, and great sympathy Is felt for her.

quarters. So the chief obstacles to the con-
summation of this pretty scheme will proba-
bly, be the difficulty of holding the Green
the two Virginia Readjusters may vote with
the Republicans in the matter of organiza-
tion. Several of the so-called Greenbackers,
it is known, have distinct prefeTences for one
or the other of the two large parties and were
elected either as boilers or as representatives
of a disaffected class and not OIL financial
grounds. The election of J. Hyatt Smith, Of
Brooklyn, who is a Republican, is a case in
point. Probably quite half of the dozen So
called Greenbackers would feel not only en-
title but called upon to hold aloof from any
plans looking to the benefit of Greenback-
ism, pure and simple.
As the election in Virginia, resulted in the
victory of the Readjusters, ii is fair to pre-
sumo the Republicans will not lack the
necessary strength to elect their Speaker and
But it is evident that large concessions must
be made Readjusters in the way OF prominent
positions OIL important committees. They
are now placed i'll q position where they are
compelled to wear the unclean and poisonous
garment with which they have clothed them
selves, and they cannot, if they would, cast
it Oft. Reputation is the Nessos of the Re
publican party and the burning wrath of an
outraged people will become the pyre that
will consume it. Republicans may propose
but it will be dtbtrepudiators that will dis
pose of the organization of the next House
of Representatives.

OUR LUMBER SUPPLY.

There are those who pre- let that the INN.
Der supply Of America is liable to early ex-
haustion, but it is evident they have not ia
ken into consideration tho vast, and as vet
almost wholly unsXplored. region forth of
Georgian Bay. and east Of Lake Superior in
the east and the great forests resting on the
Pacific Slope in the west. 7 he former dis
tricts, which have hitherto been regarded a.
almost valueless, seem now in a fair way of
taking rank among the most valuable lumber
resources. Colonel Mercer, an American rail-
way engineer, who ha recently been explor-
ing the regions north Of Georgian Bay, says
they found the pine timber of a superior quail
ity, exceeding that of the Michigan forests.
Colonel Mercer estimates that the area eX-
plored by his party would furnish 24,090, 00O.-
600 feet of lumber, and they had not begun,
according to the Indian guide, to penetrate
his immense forest tract. The explorers al
so encountered small streams connecting with
the Spanish River, which in the event Of the
future tapping Of this great lumber supply,
would serve admirably i'll floating the logs to
VIC SlSaLCl otlcaih, lo . ltoil ldplus
and well adapted to The logging trade. The
value Of this great pine forest will perhaps be
better understood wien it is stated the en-
tire stock of uncut timber in the State of
Michigan is estimated by practical engineers
at only =, 1000, 600, 900 feet.
Ia The West we have immense pine forests
which have been, as yet, scarcely touched.
The Northern Pacific Railroad Company
alone owns 2,00e, 900 acres of timber land
near Puget Sound. which are said to ex Gel
those of any other section Of the country.
Contiguous to these lands and all along on
the line of that great road west Of the Rocky
Mountains are dense pine fores,s that hpve
never resounded with the echoes of the
woodlands axe. Missoula county possesses
magnificent pine forests which will in the
very near future play all important part il
enhancing the prosperity of that garden spot
of Montana. Viewing the lumber suppl,
from the standpoint of the Rockies the people
in this latitude may entertain no apprehen.
sions concerning its continuance. With th,
completion of the Northern Pacific and tb,
extension of the Utah aud Northern the vas
forests to the west of us will be placed al
most ut our doors. The fear Of a diminishe,
lumber supply therefore need deter 10 on,
from driving his stakes in any part of our ia
vered Territory.

NOT ALL SMOKE

The story going the rounds of the press,
that Malone will be offered a Cabinet posi-
ton, may yet prove to be founded in some
thing more substantial than a mere surmise.
1t las transpired that the notorious Rsadjust-
er, in order to hold the straight-out Republic
cans in his fight against the deb,-payins Dem
ocrats in the recent election in Virginia, made
a great MANY promises, some of which, AZ
least he cannot fulfill. Among others was
one made to a prominent straight ut Re-
publican, that in .he event Of the Readjusters
carrying the Virginia Legislature, The straight
out should be elected United States Senator
in the place of Mr.. John W. JohnsI on, whose
teru expires March 3, 1888. But it now ap-
pears that Mr.. Cameron, the Governor-eiect
and two or tLree other Readjusters desire
and expect to succeed Mr.. Johnston, aad
propose to make d fight for tae position. In
the event OF a fight between the Readjusters
and stlaighout Republicans for that particu-
lar Office, the Democrats have intimated their
readiness TO join with the Republicans aud
elect ex" Governor Wickhaln, a debt-payina
Republican, and thus defeat Mahone's scheme.
To avoid this ~cousummation and at the same
time to prevent y rupture between the Read
~justers and their allies it would be a fine
streke of policy, on the part of the manipula-
tors OF the recent campaign, to urge Aahone's
transfer to the cabinet and thus create anoth-
er senatorial vacancy to be filled, in which
event each party to Virginia's disgrace could
be provided with a representative
i'll The United States Senate. This
is a beautiful little play which
needs only Mr.. Arthur's Endorsement to per-
feet. This gentleman's willingness to accede
to the arrangement cannot be reasonably
questioned in view of the urgent necessity for
The continuance Of the present harmonious re-
laLions which exist between The Republicans
aud debt regulators. Hence there remains
but one obs! acle in the way of fixing up the
business, and that is the outright refusal OF
Democratic Senators TO confirm Mahone's APP
pointnent, should it be mace. They threat.
en- to deadlock the Senate indefinitely rather
than see the arch Repudiator confirmed, anC
their threats may be needed TO the extent O
breaking a scheme toreshadowed in the re
port noticed. There is a little fire beneaLl
the smoke which the story has rails ed.

THE SPEAKERSHIP OF THE
HOUSE.

The New York Worlds Washington cor
respondent says the election of so good a
DenDcrat as Mr.. Flower 10 succeed Minister
Morton III Congress has set The Republicans
a. the capital gessiping wildly over the Speak
ship. They now fear that The Greenbackers
may demand important places on the House
committees by virtue of their holding NOM
inally the balance of power in the House.
Choice conmittee places rank next to the
Speakership, for legislation is really shaped
IN committee rooms. Indeed the real motive
behind the candidacy of a major ty of those
who regularly enter into The Speakership
race is to secure certain coveted committee
appointments. The scheme just now con-
sidered by the Republicans is how to get Tor
Mr.. Kelley, of Pennsylvania, the Chairman
ship of the Ways and Means Committee.
which is the best position in the Speakers
gift. Mr.. Kelley was a pioneer 10 the Green
back cause, and although Of late his afflia-
tons have been entirely Republican, it is
taken for granted that he will not be deaf to
q ttery and seduction even from 9reenback
