Body and Mind.

Most persons have heard of the idea
which attributes the occurrence OF jjarn-
dice to some strong disgust experienced
by the subject of the affection, which.
as is we'll known, simply consists in
suppression of the bile or secretion Of
the liver-although by physicians
jaundice is viewed rather as a symptom
of other affections that as constituting
of itself a primary disease. The bile
was accounted in the early days of
physiological research one of the HUI
mors, wherein was stores black care, or
that green and yellow melancholy" of
which Shakespeare speaks. The same
ideas which referred the passions to
the various organs of the body-and
which still figuratiyely survive when we
speak of "a fit of the spleen" Of the
"meditatative spleen" of Wordsworth,
or of the heart" as base, wicked,
grateful or glad-assigned to the bile
no very suspicious Office as the genera
tor of melancholy and brooding care.
Achilles hath mo gall within his
breast" is a Homeric expression, indica-
tive of a belief in the absence of malan-
choly or fear in the hero; and Juvenal
asks:
Gould referamq uanta siccum iecur ardeatira?'
referring anger to the liver as its seat.
Even Solomon makes misguided pas
sion to be typified by the dart, which
strikes through the liver of the un-
guarded subject, and Jeremiah similar
ly conveys the idea of intense grief in
the metaphor, "my liver is poured
upon the arth."-Gentleman's Maya

The usual definition of working men
and women, or working classes" as
they are sometimes called is often very
restricted. Gen, Butler, in a late
speech in New York, has given a wider
definition. He said: / mean all peo-
who work for wages, at a stipulated
price for stipulated time of service in
production, whether on the farm, in the
mandatory or in the mine, the print
ing Office or on the railroad, or with 9th
er instruments of transportation, and
many other employments. This inclu'
siveness meets the facts of the case.

Henry Henke, a prominent citizen of Park
ersburg, Iowa, was killed by the cars Thurs
day. A gravel train on the Illinois Central
railway was pulling through the town at a rap
id rate, and struck his team on a crossing.
Henke was killed instantly, and one of his
horses was thrown $50 feet from the track.
Henke was slightly deaf, and no signal was
given for the crossing.
By the late blow in Wisconsin two addition
al deaths are recorded being those of the two
Lee children, so badly crushed in q falling
house at Star Prairie. These, with three al
ready reported from Clear Lake, make FIVE
deaths in all thus far. Bill Nye, whose leg
was broken, is doing as well as can be expected,
though he has not begun to feel funny as vet
One case of loss by lightning only is reported,
it being one setting of wheat stacks owned by
Elder Lake out in the town of Roberts, this
county. He sustained a similar injury six
weeks ago, and lost some $1,000, which with

At Pierre, Oak, thirty houses were burned
Friday morning. The fire originated in the
general merchandise store of Hayden Bros,
on Pierre street, and rapidly spread, sweeping
every building in the block on that street, be-
tween Dakota and Missouri avenues, with the
exception Of the brick building to be used by
the First National bank, which turned the
flames westward on Dakota avenue, sweeping
four buildings on this t~horoughfare before be-

For many miles east of the North Wisconsin
road the country is heavily timbered and COM
paratively uninhabited, and as no record Of
disaster comes from towns on the Chippewa
Falls 4 Northern, it is fair to suppose the
force Of the cyclone was d~issipated before
II reached that line. The advices received 20
to show that wind first attained destructive
momentum IN Hennepin county, and
though Minneapolis was not affected
seriously, farm houses and barns to the east
and slightly to the north OF that city were
unroofed or otherwise injured, while grain
stacks were whirled abroad, and the sheayes
widely scattered. Leaping over the Mississippi
the next heard of the storm is at White Bear,
in character. White Bear is northeast OF
Minneapolis and Marine as exactly northeast
from White Bear.

dentials to the emperor. Mr.. Kasson was in
troduced by the master of the ceremonies,
Count Meynhausen. The emperor was attend
eddy Under Secretary Busch, Prince Bismarck's
former confidential secretary and biographer,
representing the foreign Office. His majes-
ty listened with his wonted benign appearance
Of courteous attention to Mr.. Kasson's short
address, couched in the stereotyped for
malities and expressions of amity al
ways made use of or such occasions.
The emperor replied Asying he was
very glad of the existence of good and friendly
relations with the United States, and hoping
that the new minister viii maintain them. At
ter this formal exchange of courtesies the en-
peror spoke for a few minutes in his usual
friendly manner with the minister, who then
withdrew for the purpose of calling on the en-
press, who received HIM, surrounded by ladies
of her court, most ~graciously and affably. Her
majesty asked Nh. kasson particularly about
the president and his family. tits here gener-
ally believed that Mr.. Kasson is the right man.
His familiarity with the German tongue and
customs has a most excellent effect, and,
coupled with his past diplomatic career, u
most thoroughly appreciated.

Rail and River News.

New York Special: The war between the
railroad companies has come to an end. Tick
cts between New York and Chicago and 9TH
er Western points are still sold at greatly re-
duced rates, but they are not as low as they
have been, neither are the conditions as adyan-
tageous. Scalpers are selling tickets to Chica-
go as low as s16, but will not sell return tickets
at the same rate.
The government is informed that a new sys-
tenn of clearing streets and railroad tracks is
about to be established which promises to
revolutionize the entire business, consisting
mainly of sweeping the dirt TO the railroad
tracks instead of to the cutters, where it is at
once taken up and out Of the city by self-load-
ing street cars, which sprinkle and sweep the
streets as they go, thus saving the cost of
sweeping and sprinkling on the rails and stone
pavements, and the slow and expensive work
of men and horses and carts in the cutters.

Because a very large number of vo-
tiers are not shouting themselves hoarse
in this campaign, it ought not to be in
ferred that popular interest in politics
is less intense than usual. Apathy is a
term often misapplied Men who stay
away from political demonstrations, and
even those who have little to say about
politics in private conversation, may not
be Indifferent, but, entertaining views OF
their own, prefer to enlist in the great
army of silent voters. The apparent
apathy at present indicates, perhaps,
that people are doing some vigorous
thinking or that they are too busy in
harvesting and fall pIoughing to spend
much time in what is called political
work.
