DIR. KoC1rs CAREER.
A Short Sketch OF the Celebrated Dis
eoverer Of the Cholera Germ.
nh nE.tg x1...-,gs

coverer OF the Cholera Germ.
PrR Mat Gdscite.
An interesting sketch Of the life Of
Robert Koch, tho discovercr OF the cholera
germ, the man whose name Is at present
in everybody's mouth, appears in q recent
number Of the Gavtcnidubc. DR.. Koch,
who is now al years old, Is son OF the
Hartz mountain. In 1860 he took HE NJ.
ID. degree. For tho noxt six years no
slowly and laboriously worked his way
upon as assistant physician in out-of.
the.way hospitals. Fortune did not
smooth his road, aud whom in 1872 he got
an appointment ut wollstien the struggle
for existence had again TO DO fought for
seven years. Under circumstances SO
unfavorable for scientific research he
prosecuted his studios with y success
which secured worldwide recognition
of his genius. His FIRST distinction was
won by tho publication Of the results Of
his quiet labor on tho methods Of the mr.
tifcial dyeiug Of microscopic objects, os-
pecially of bacteria. by tho general
public his discovery could not DO appre-
oiatod. but those who understood tho
value OF these researches in the prosecu-
tion Of tho study Of bacteria knew that
with IL n new era has dawned for sci
euco. This conviction has been brill
liantly confirmed.
During the last Eve years he hos sue
cceded Ia identsfyiug tho germs Of cattle
| disease, Of consumption, and of cholera
These discoveries arc not incidental
strokes of good luck. but tho natural
fruits of his own system of research. Tho
significance of these discoveries Is folt
oyon by those who have no knowledge Of
medicine. Experiments In vaccinations
with tho poisonous matter. experiments
in dsnfoction in laboratories, wholesale
experiments In the disappearance OF cpl
domics-all these arc but links in the
chain, the last link OF which, the de-
struction Of tho germ Of the disease. Is no
more unattainable, but has become even
probable. Honors have been conferred
on DIR. Koch and his colleagues Oh
coming hor from India, the breeding place
of cholera. They have received titles and
orders, TO which, in honor Of tho personal
danger of tho voyage of discovery, were
added such distinctions as otherwise are
only conferred on soldiers. By addresses
and banquets colleagues havo honorod
thcm. and IL Is said that the new profess.
sorship Of hygiene, at Berlin, will be
given to Dr. Koch. In short, outward
Acknowledgements have been beautifully
made to tho modest, quiet scholar. AL
though tho Germans coll him theirs with
| pride, no will always remain what he is
universal, and no deserves to the full th,
honorable tito OF "benofactor of hu
manity."

A stranger who mot him in crowd on
Broadway would have known, without

mon sort; that ho was an extraordinary
character, with extraordinary expert
eucos, aud had played. somewhere and
sometime, an extraordinary part on tho
stage of human affairs. OF commanding
figure, six feet or more, his physique
combined strength, activity, and grace,
especially in his younger days. Even In
ago these qualities were noticeable, and
in every movement he showed his mill
tary and Indian training; the latter
particularly, for with u blanket, buck
skins and a little red paint no would
have passed anywhere for u native Amer
lean prince. His hands were large and
muscular, and usually adorned with
heavy gold rings Of uncouth pattern. His
feet were very small for his size, and he
must have been rather proud Of thcm, for
tho boots wcro of fashionable cut and
fitted closely; though the pantaloons, per-
haps to display tho shapely leg and foot
| to fullest advantage, were frequently
stuck in tho boot-tops. 1t was the face,
