The Sad story Told by Dying Lad

A sad little procession silently wendell
its way yesterday from within the sombre
walls of the Eastern penitentiary bearing
a coffin containing the remains of IT,
year old lad, who died Of consumption on
Saturday after having completed half of a
two years sentence for larceny. At the
time of the boys arrest he gave an as
sumed name, and retained his incOgnito
until the latter part of last week, when he
felt the hand of death laid upon him. 1t.
was then that he called one of the keepers to
his bedside, and, after giving his right name, {,
stated that he was an orphan and came
from the South, where his relations, who
are people of good connection, resided.
He had come the city to make living,
and obtained employment on an ice cart,
but hard work soon told on his frail con-
stitutiOn, and ut last he had to cease labor
ing. But two alternatives remained for
him, one Of which was to go to the aims
house, and the other to prison. lie preferred
the life Of convict to that Of a pauper,
and he stole set OF harness, tor which hc
was sentenced to two years Imprisonment.

Postal Money Orsier.xl

Postmaster General james has adopt
cd a new plan for the Transmission OF
small sums of money by postal orders.
The new device is-an Improvement on
the English system recently adopted.
BY It money orders for all sums under
$5 can be sent; the charges on orders
under SO so being from Q to 8 cents,
and on sums from "a 50 to S5, A to S
cents. The orders arc written on bank
paper, simply giving the amount of
the order, the date, of issue and the
office at which it is to be paid, thus
doing with the largo clerical force ne
ccssitated by postal money orders.
This check is mailed in letter to the
person to whom it is designed TO be
sent. and win be cashcd at the post
office there. To prevent these orders
from being used as currency. which
might occur it is provided that the
checks must DO presented for payment.
within three months of the time they
are drawn. a
While speaking Of money orders it
may be well to mention that Moneys
bill reducing the charges for these or
ders some so per cent. which was
offered last year but postponed, will
be pressed at tho next session of Con-
gress, when there is every probability
that it will pass. O. Democrat.

To illustrate tho profits Of cattle
raising in Texas, we take the liberty Of
pushing a brief estimate of the success
attained by afrieusl of oursauring The
past eight years. In 1873 the gentle
man referred to,owncd about 5000 cat
tie which he offered with bis horses,
ranch, etc, for $25, 900, but could find
no purchaser, and was forced To hold
on to his cattle. Laet year he sold
from this same stock 100000 worth
of beef, and this year has already con
tracted to one party over $40, 1000
worth OF beeves. In addition he ex-
poets to sell and ship this season $780,
900 worth Of beef out of the stock,
making the sale this year amount to
over $f50,oo0, and still Have left on
his range $4,000 head Of cattle, 400
head of good horses, outfit, etc., as
amounting to the snug little sum of
$40o, 900. Four. hundred thousand dol
lars worth of stock and probably half
that amount in cash from 4 $25,000
stock in eight years il. convincing eyi4
donce that there IS money in the eattle
business in Texas. 5tf
These figures are not exaggeration,
but are given from facts, and Of o,r
own knowledge no part Of this remark
able success has been due to specnla-
tion, but to the legitimate Increase of
the stock-the plan pursued during
these eight years s-being to sell annually
y lot of beeves and at once invest tho
money thus received in young cattle.
The gentleman whose success we
here record in our life long friend, Van
of Wise connty. Is He

saloon, and somehow or other the subject Of
newspapers came up tor discussion. One
man said that editors were more jealous Of

on Lake Michigan, where one-third Of all the
children in a marshy district died Of the cpl.

of the diphtheritic virus, several Of the false
membranes which are invariably formed in the
throats OF afflicted persons, and portions OF
their viscera. In all blood, said the professor.
there are two kinds of corpuscles, the red or
color. giving and the white. By careful study
and experiments. both in human beings and
the lower animals, it was found that this in
finitesimal plant fastens upon the white cor
puscles and multiples its cells, altering their
character until, with the interior destroyed,
they burst. and the plants, set loose in an ir-
regular mass. separate and so of individually,
TO continue the destructive work on other cor.
puscles Thus increased, they poison the blood
chske the vessels, and are found in myriad
numbers in the spleen and bone marrow, where
the blood is manufactured. Prof. Woods in-
vestisations show that the false membrane,
supposed to invariably indicate the presence
of diphteria, NAV be caused by ammonia,
Spanish tiy or anv other irritating influence
in the throat. so that its presence IL not infal-
lible as indicating the presence of this dis
ease But in any case the false membrane Is

carrying the poison with them, that diphtheria
sets in. This little plant is exactly the same
as found upon a coated tongue. When Prof
Wood put plants such a. are found upon a
healthy tongue in sterilixed matter they failed
to grow. On the contrary, plants from the
throat or blood Of person affected with
diphtheria multiplied rapidly. The practical
result of the investigation pointed out was
the possibility that dphtheris, if existing
theories hold good, may be prevented BY
artificial vaccination. In the case Of splenic
fever caught from animals, which has been
proved to originate in q somewhat similar
plant, Pasteur has found that the plant, when
exposed sufficient time to the air, by the
action of oxygen loses its poisonous charac-
ter. and when then introduced into the system
makes the animal sick, but is no longer fatal.
The deduction is that this diphtheritic plant,
scientifically known AZ ''micrococ." may In
time be cultivated so that, when inoculated
with it, the system will no longer be subject
to the disease in its fatal form. Concluding
the lecture. Prot. Wood was applauded when
he said that these discoveries could
never have been made but for the aid
of vivisection, against which there Is n foolish
prejudice in the minds Of many.

He Would Have Il.

One of the most touching things We have
read in long time is that story Of robber
and poor. lone woman, near Franklin,
Ohio. The robber came to her house ct night
and demanded her money or her life, but she
preferred giving up the former rather than
the latter; so she brought her little store
and laid it in his hand. lie looked it over
carefully to see that she didn't palm of any

ly told her that he could only credit her for
ninety four cents on the trade dollars, cliid-

replied with a sigh. A thought struck him.
"Your husband was . soldier was he not!'
She acknow ledged that he was, and was killed
in the war.
''Then he must have had a revolver" he
continued, searching her countenance. "Ah.
you grow confused, you stammer; your man

and give it to me-" In vain the woman i'm

almost the sole memorial of the husband she
had lost. She had pawned many things
