SCIENTIFIC MISCELLANY.

The THEORY OF VACCINATION =
Prot. Tyndall suggests that, just as
the soil may be so effectuaily rob
bed of some essential Ingredient by
one abundant crop as to be incapa-
BILE OF producing another, so in the
human system a parasitic disease
may so completely exhaust the
blood OF some ingredient necessary
to the growth and propagation of
the parasite that the production of
a second crop in fatal or considers
bic quantity may be possible. 1t
would thus appear that protective
vaccination or incubation is simply
the Introduction into the blood of
weakened and comparatively harm
less disease gernA to CONSUME the
material which might become food
for similar germs in more vigor-
Gus and dangerous condition.

Mr.. Fl. e. Beddard, London Zoo
logist, earthworms two feet in length
have been found in the British Isles
and various species as large or larg

America, Western Africa, Australia
and New Zealand. The largest
species known, however, inhabits
South Africa. Forty years ago a

ured six feet two inches in length,
but it seems to have been nearly
forgotten until the other day, when
a gigantic creature of the same

with yells Of delight, and Thomas present
ly proclaimed that he was the Savior, and
charged one of the roysterers with being
Judas Iscariot. II is claimed that he next
broke some bread In pieces and distributed
It, with glasses of beer, among the guests
in mockery of the last sacrament. In the

were eating drinking, and shouting, Thom.

pressions that shocked even his
comrades. They all started up with
amazement at his words, when he
suddenly grew pale, and putting his hands
to his head complained of pain. 1t was not
until eleven O'Clock that this occurred, and
the supper had opened shortly after eight.
"l'm afraid it's my last supper after ALL"
the miserable man moaned, then clutching
his hair and rising with difficulty he an
nounced to the rest: ~ must vacate the

to dissuade him, saying that he would be
better presently, but he persisted and left
the room. When Thomas reached his
house he said that he felt as II he had been
struck violent blow ON the head. He
complained Of being weak and feeling as
II on the verge Of the grave. He fingered
on. his relatives fancying that his sickness
was imaginary. A few mornings after the

Nine or ten years ago certain jake
Ruse, Of Greene Township, Pa, married
a woman named Calvert, daughter OF Lash
Calvert. Theyl lived together two or three
years. when Ruse left his lawful wife and
took up with woman named Stickles,
daughter of Levi Stickles. He soon fell
out with the Sticllles woman and looked
about for another woman TO conquer. He
made love to Miss Stoneking, who took
kindly to him, and they were one as near.
ly as possible, considering that two other
wives had matrimonial claims upon Ruse.
They are still living together.
Byer Ruse, OF the same township a. ] a
brother of Jake, married a woman In
Waynesburg about year since, but he
treated her so badly that tle parents Of
the woman took her away from Ruse. The
latter then took up with his brother Jake's-
second wife, the Stickles woman.
Pleasant Ruse, a sisterof Jake and Byer,
married Dan Stickles and had two chill
dren by him. She left him about year
ago and sought tho loving arms OF one
John Dunston, Of jefferson township.
Mary Ruse, another sister, two years
ago married a Jim Hawkins, who was said
TO have wifc living at the time. They
lived together some eighteen months, till a
child was born to them, when one day tho
mother-in-law appeared upon the scene
where the couple lived, just across the riv-
er in Fayette County, and upon some pre-
tense took tho daughter home. Mrs. Haw.
kns No. attended the Waynesburg fair
last fall, stopping with one Hiram Long,
he and his family now being in the aims
house, and while here fell in with one
Jim Richey, who had wife living. She
took fancy TO Jim, and in order that she
might pass herself of on him as young
maiden her mother came and took the six
months-old child, of which Hawkins was
the father. They took kindly to each other
and are now living together in the same
house with Miss Hawkins, alias Richey's,
parents on the township line, between
Cumberland and Greene townships.
Ben Love left his lawful wife in Waynes-
burg and went to Greene Township and
married Miss Kimble about year ago,
who now lives on the farm Of s. p. Minor,
in the township named, while Mrs. Love
No. still lives in Waynesburg.
Ben Masters, Of Greene Township, be.
came enamored Of sister Of Hiram Longs
wife, she having husband living and Ben
a wife In West Virginia. They didn't al
low these membranes to interfere, how.
ever, and about two months since they
were married, and now live in Greene
Township.
Dan Stickles, whose wife No. 1 mar
ried Dunston, already mentioned, took
unto herself second rib In the person Of
one William Masters, Of Rudolph's Run.

PRETTY NUNS IN PERIL.
How "A Body of Hotheaded Students Was

Washington SpcciaLl
There was u thrilling scene In the George

vent is one of the oldest In the country. 1t
has within its mysterious and closely
guarded portals upwards Of one hundred
sisters who have taken the black veil. Quite
a number of them are young and beautiful,
once petted daughters Of noted families.
Within one block Of the building is the
Georgetown College, q Catholic training
school for crowd of hotheaded Southern
lads. Late Saturday night an alarm OF
fire was sounded, and the report was sent
out that the Georgetown Convent was on
fire. The first alarm was soon followed by
general alarm. While stalwart firemen
tore open the doors and poured through the
most sacred precincts OF the convent,
where no wicked man had ever before
been allowed to enter, women's shrieks

chimney burning out. The chimney fire
communicated 10 the roof, and II it had
not been for the prompt action Of tine fire.
men the convent would certainly have
been destroyed. The most thrilling incl
dent of the fire was when a crowd Of young
Southern palladins, to the number of fifty
or sixty, came charging down from the
college, their hearts throbbing, each re-
solved to savea pretty nun, even at the
peril OF his life. The boys charged through
tue first part of the house, spurred on by
the shrieks of the nuns, who were running
about in disordered dress in the corridors,
but when they reached the door of the
nunnery proper they found in their path
cool Lady Superior, who said TO the mob
of fiery enthusiasts: "There are already
too many men in this house," AMI drove
them out like flock of sheep. In few
minutes the fire was out, and then the fire.
men were hustled out. But the convent
nas not, even up 10 the present time, re-
