The Bite Of a Mad Dog not always Fatal

The bite of mad dog, it would appear,
is not as fatal as is generally supposed. ~
report on the subject from the Department
of the Seine, issued by the Paris Pretec-
,ure of Police for the last three wears, shows
that OF 156 persons bitten by rabid dogs in
1881, So died; in 1888, 9 out 81 t,itten died
and in 1853, s only out Of IS. With regard
to the treatment of the bite of rabid ami
NAL, the experience Of the French doctors
shows that the only remedy which can be
depended upon to destroy the virus is the
prompt application to the wound of caute-
" by red hot iron.' Twenty persons died
nf hydrophobia in the Department Of the
S line in 1881, nine in 1882 and four in 1883,
as far as the official returns show. The de-
crrasing number Of deaths from this cause
i, attributed to the stricter measures adopt
-. with regard to ownerless dogs During
The three years mentioned 1855 stray
90 IS were captured in Paris and the depart
nent, and destroyed.-S. flames Gazette.

ISSUED. EVERY SATURDAY Nor MING
The Speakers Gavel.

1t has been customary, BY courtesy, for
a retiring speaker to take with him the CAV
el he has used, 10 keep as a relic in his fam
iy; so new one must be made for each
speaker elected. The new one made for
the present Speaker has a very plain, stout
round hickory handle, abou, ten inches
long. Its maliet is a stout piece Of ivory,
about five inches in circumference, and on
either end are two blue circles. The first
handle made for this new gavel was fancy
one Of ebony, with various projections and
intentions; making it very weak in certain
places; SO at the las: moment new handle
had to be made, lest the new Speaker
should break the ebony one the first time
he used it with emphasis. He is not a
man, however, given to acting on violent
impulses or easily provoked to ange: on
any occasion. Two of those, however,
whom he has within few weeks called to
take his place in the chair have broken the
strong handle OF the new gavel. Once the
mallet end few off the handle and Just
missed striking one of the clerks at the
table in front of the Speakers desk upon
the head. Such a blow from the heavy
piece Of Ivory would have been painful If
not serious in its effects.-Wash. Letter.

American Cooks and Cooking.

From the dreadful corned beef and cab
bage and the fish balls of crude American
cookery, the family of Delmonico has BY
degrees led the American public to the
consideration Of higher things. The favor
lite dishes Of the great Republic have been
concentrated in New York, and recent ar
rivals are Hospitality challenged to compare
ANYTHING in the old world with them. Po-
likeness prevents such comparisons, which
would hardly be in favor of each hemis-
phere. In fish and game, Despite its wide
area OF river and prairie, America can in
no way compare with the raw products Of
this country. But it has its >pecialties.
The oysters Of Blue Point and Shrewsbury
river may not be denied any more than the
canvas back nourished on the marshes Of
the Potomac, the terrapin captured on the
shore Of the Delaware, the snapping-turtle
from the West, the gumbo-soup of New
Orleans, or the pompano fish which rejoic-
eth in the Mexican Gulf What the Del
monicos have done is to bring the enjoy
ments of the two hemispheres into comb
nation. They have known how to make
the CLANS, the oysters, the sheepsheads.
and other strange fishes familiar to the
great army of gastronomists who reach
Manhattan island.-L0ndon News.
