Treatment Of SunstrOke.

Sunstroke is caused by excessive heat,
and especially il the weather is
"muggy." 1t is more apt to occur on
the second, third, or fourth day of a
heated term tEan on the first. Loss OF
sleep, worry, excitement, close sleeping
rooms, debility, abuse of stimulants;
predispose to it, 1t is more apt to at
tack those working in the sun, and es-
pecially between the hours of eleven
O'Clock in tho morning and four O. clock
In the afternoon. On hot days wear
thin clothing. Have as cool sleeping
rooms as possible. Avoid loss of sleep
and all unnecessary fatigue. If work
ing in doors, and where there Is arti-
fioial heat-laundries etc, see that tho
room is we'll ventilated.
If working in the sun, wear n light
hat (not black, as it absorbs heat),
straw, etc., and put inside of it on the
head, wet cloth or a large green leaf;
frequently lift the hatfrom the head and
see that the cloth is wet. Do not check
perspiration but drink what water you
need to keep it up, as perspiration pre-
vents the body from being overheated.
Have, whenever possible, an additional
shade, as q thin umbrella, when walk
ing, q canvas or board cover when work

do not 90 to work, but be excused from
work, especially after eleven o'clock in
the morning on very hot days, if the
work is in the sun. If a feeling of fatigue,
dizziness, headache or exhaustion oc-
ours, cease work Immediately, lie down
in shady and cool place; apply cold
cloths to and pour cold water over the
head and neck. If any one is overcome
by the heat send Immediately for the
nearest good physician. While waiting
for the physician give the person cool
drinks of water or cold black tea. or
cold coffee, if able to swallow. If the
skin is hot and dry, sponge with or
pour cold water over the body and
limbs, and apply to the head pounded
ice wrapped in towel or other cloth.
If there is no ice at hand, keep a cold
cloth on the head, and pour cold water

THE ATTENTION that has been called to
the cases of election contest still pending in
the House, by certain incongenial remarks
of the able editor of the Republican, has had
salutary effect; though, perhaps, not in
the precise direction intended by the able
editor. When the present House was
organized ON Republican basis, there was
foray Of wildeyed men from the South
Republicans, Greenbackers, and what not
on the defenseless Elections Committee in
quest of seats. They seemed to think that
nothing was required except an affidavit
that they had run for Congress in Southern
Districts and that their antagonists had
been returned. For the rest, the tradi-
tional bloody shirt and the standard tissue
ballot would answer every purpose.
Chairman Calkins aud his committee,
considering the temptation to extreme
partizanship, which the narrow majority
and need of more vote, held out, behaved
with fairly creditable conservatism In
meeting this foray. Several of the con-
tests were basel upon tenable grounds, and
these were promptly decided ia accordance
with the law aud tho facts in favor of the
contestants. Others were obviously frivo-
lous and were as promptly thrown out. OF
those that still remain unreportod we know
nothing, not having seen or heard the tes.
timony. But of those reported and on the
House calendar there is at least
one case in which the action OF
the majority Of the committee is
clearly ill-judged and unjust. We

TO The Editor OF The EreRtnQ Critic:
WILL you please point out, for tho bonoilt OF
n number OF your subscribers, tho CAUSES
leading to the Egyptian WARP o. II.
There is no Egyptian war" in the
proper, international sense Of those terms
The existing trouble grows out of a revolt
of the Egyptian Army, commanded by
Arab Boy, against the Khedive. One of
the incidents Of this revolt was the murder
of number of European residents of Alex
andria by Mahomnedan fanatics. Tho
Khedivc was powcrless to restore order.
The Sultan of Turkey, who still holds a
nominal suzerainty over Egypt, was next
appealed to by the European Powers to
check the excesses of the rebels or mutt
neers, but he also was unable to exert any
authority over the lawless swashbucklcr
who had usurped power.
At this stage of the game England inter
vened. Her route to India lies through
Egyptian territory, and hence it was of
vital moment to her that the country
should be legitimately and responsibly gov
crned. Finding the lawful rulers of Egypt
incapable of protecting life and property or
Of guaranteeing the peaceful navigation Of
the Suez Canal, England undertook the
task herself The situation amounts to
this: England is endeavoring to suppress
rebellion against the lawful government
of Egypt, partly to conserve the general
peace and partly to protect her own vast
interests in the Suez Canal.

THE report submitted by a subcommittee
of the House Committee on Elections yes
terday in the Stovall- Cabell case from Vir-

Members of the House. The report is in
favor of the contestee General George G..
Cabell, and is just and honest. The con-
tostant had no true grounds upon which to
bring the contest, and relied upon a
strictly partisan majority to carry him
through. A Republican member stated to

Member has been so pure and honest and
conscientious that even the most rabid Re-
publican would not have voted TO oust
him on the evidence produced. 1t is a
pleasure to THE CRITIC to note that Gen.
eral Cabell has not only been vindicated by
unanimous report from the Elections Com
mittee. but that he will be renominated by
his constituency and returned to tho House
for another term ut least. General Cabell is a
generous, frank, whole.souled gentleman
of the true Virginia character, aud has a
friend in every Member in the House.
