HOW CHOLERA PATIENTS FEEL
Symptoms which Accompany the Dread
Disease.

disease.
The patient feels well up to within a
few hours Of the attack, or, it may be,
goes to bed and sleeps soundly through
the night, says Twain's Dictionary of
Medicine, and Immediately on rising in
the morning is seized with violent purg-
ing and vomiting. If judiciously treated
many patients recover from this, the first
stage Of cholera, but if neglected the ten
dency of the disease is TO grow rapidly
worse. The patient complains of intense
thirst and burning heat at the pit OF his
stomach; he suffers also eXcruciating
pain from cramps in the muscles of the
extremities; he is terribly restless, and
his urgent cry is for water to quench his
thirst, and that some one might rub
his limbs, and thus relieve the
muscular spasm. The pulse is rapid
and very weak, the respirations are
hurried, and the patients voice
pinehed, and the integument of his body
feels inelastic and doughy, while the skin
Of his hands and feet becomes wrinkled
and purplish in color. The duration of
this, the second stage of cholera, is very
uncertain-it may last for two or three
hours only, or may continue for II or 10
hours, but so long as the pulse can be felt
at tne WflSC bnere are SILL good hopes OF
the sick PERSONS recovery. The weaker
the pulse becomes the nearer the patient
is to the third or collapse stage of cholera,
from which probably not more than 30
per cent. recover. In the third stlge of
the disease the vomiting and purging
continue, although in a mitigated form.
and the skin is covered with a
clammy perspiratIon, especially if the
cramps are still severe. The patient re-
mains terribly restless, longing only for
sleep, and that he may be supplied with
water. His intellect is clear, but he sell
dom expresses any anxiety regarding
worldly affairs, although fully conscious
of the dangerous condition he is in. Sleep
and plentiful supply of drinking water
are the sole desires of person passing
through the collapse stage OF cholera.
This condition seldom lasts for more than
twenty-four hours, and reaction either
commences within that period or the pa.
tient dies in collapse or passes on into the
tepid stage, which in ninety-nine cases
out of hundred ends speedily in death.
On the other hand, the sick person, hav-
ing been in the collapse stage of cholera
some twenty-four hours lit may be a
longer or shorter period the temperature
of his body may begin to rise, gradually
creeping up into the normal standard /:
the functions Of animal life are slowly
restored, and the sick person RECEIVERS his
health.

A PLUCKY CONDUCTOR
Saves from Wreck Train Beari1
Chicago Delegates.

Saves from Wreck a Train Bearing
Chicago Delegates.
On the Evansville and Terre Haute
Railway, five miles north of this city,
Saturday night, says a Vincennes, Ind,
special, an extra train jumped the track
and nearly caused the wreck of a train
crowded with passengers from the Chicago
Convention. An engine and caboose were
running on the Chicago trains time, and
were but two minutes ahead of it at Fort
Knox, the scene of the disaster. At the
point of the curve, the tender of the extra
jumped the track, dragging off the rear
drivers of the engine, and hauling the
caboOse over the ties and rails for six
hundred yards. The ties were torn
from the roadbed, and the rails
for that distance were bent like
straws. The tender is now q mass of
bent iron, and the caboose is broken into
splinteTs. The wheels and trucks are
scattered all about in the woods promis-
cuously, and the ruins of the caboose lie
100 feet away. The occupants of this car
were the conductor, William Lucas; fire
man, James O'Brien, and Mr.. Mitchell, of
Decatur, ILL.,, a machinist. Lucas crawled
out of the wreck and started around the
curve to flag the approaching passenger
train, taking off his coat and waving it as
he ran. When he saw that he was rec
ognized by the engineer of the passenger
train, he dropped to the ground from ex-
haustien. His injuries are serious.
Mitchell had his nose and a leg broken.
Fireman O'Brien is bruised and injured
internally. He and Mitchell are uncon-
scious, and it is feared they will die. The
engine remained upon the track and the
engineer escaped injury

LOUISVILLE, KY, July 16.-A special
dispatch from Owensboro says a squad of
fifty special police patrolIed this city last
night, and mounted pickets guarded the
suburbs. The Governor ordered the Mon
arch Rifles out, and under charge of Capt.
Ford, they kept close surveillance over
the city. On Monday night the County
Judge took refuge in the armory, which
was closely guarded. These precautions
have been due to rumors
that the negroes were organizing
throughout the county, and would attack
the jail and release certain prisoners con-
fined therein. 1t was also feared that an
attempt might be made to lynch Sid.
Kelly, the father of the girl on whom an
outrage had been attempted. The Rifles
will be placed on duty again tonight. 1t
is the opinion of many that no violence
will be attempted before Sunday night.

that he had not yet finally decided

State. His mother was North Carolinian.
and some Ofthe letters say that they regard
him in a sense, at least, as a native of
that soil. Great stress is laid on the fact
that North Carolina can be removed from
the column of doubtful Southern States
and its electoral vote given to the Repub-
can candidates if Senator Logan will
stump the State thoroughly. 1t is very
probable that portion of his st. Paul
speech will be devoted to review of the
political situation, but it is said that he
will handle the subject so adroitly that no
exception can be taken by those to whom
he is politically opposed.

the following letter from a man who lives
near the Cheyenne Indians, on the Rose

AN ABUNDANCE OF GAME.
They have just come up from a hunt on
Powder river with 500 deer and u buffalo,
and yet lying st0ckmen who want the In
dlans' homes say that there has been no game
here for years. also assure you that the In
dlans have not killed any cattle at all. The
stOckmen are just making up these lies to get
the Indians sent away so that they can have
all the country themselves. You ought to sec
how they have fenced up the country to keen
out settlers. These fences, which are miles in
length, should he torn down and the country
opened to settlement, but everybody but nv
self IS AFRAID to do this on account Of the
cowboys. l again ask you to send some assist
ance TO these Indians at once, such as breed
ing cattle, plows, wagons and harness, and
staple articles of food, rice, flour, bacon, su-
gar, and coffee, as well as citizens clothing
All minor articles they can buy with
their deer skins as they are
now doing. The works of our mission are
not to be forgotten. Quite a number of
children are at present being educated by
sisters OF Charity, and thirty-hve Indians
nave been baptized here. 1t is the old story
repeated agaln-the white man wants the
Indians home and wants the Indians to go,
but God forbid it in this particular instance

Arnold, in attempting to disperse "a
crowd in front of Lyndon's drug store,
