MEDICAL MEN AT WAR
\ Singular and Interesting Contest of

A singular and Interesting Contest of
schools at Wilkesbarre, Pa.
The people Of Pittston, few miles from
here, says Wilkesbarre, Pa, special of
the 9th to the New York World. are
greatly agitated over a'case Of alleged NAL
practice which has created the bitterest
feeling between the physicians of the old
school and the hom9Opathists. About
three weeks ago Ann Carroll. wife of a
respectable mechanic, died in childbirth.
She was attended by DIR. Mulholland. n
hOm9epath. In last Sundays Nelcs
Dealer appeared an article asserting that
after the child was born the parent.
though suffering intensely, was deserted
by DR.. MulhOlland, and that her death
was caused by a second unborn child. 1t
was an open secret that DIR. Gibbons, a
practitioner of the old school, had made
these charges.
DIR. MulhOlland replied in another paper
denying the charges, and offering to
wager $500 that there was no second child.
The most intense excitement was Occa-
stoned by these charges, and the Coroner
was appealed to to disinter the remains
and hold pOst-mOrtem examination. He
consented, and to-day the body was disin-
TERED and an examination made by six
ol the most expert surgeons in the county.
1t was found that there was no second
child, but the doctors believe death was
caused by hemorrhage resulting. it was
declared by the physicians Of the old
school, from improper treatment. They
declare their intention of prosecuting DIR.
MulhOlland for malpractice and he in turn
threatens suit for libel against DR.. Glib
bOns and the Nelcs Dealer. The outcome
is awaited with much interest.

John HandO, of Virginia, Mortgages
His Body to a Creditor.
One of the most remarkable suits on
record, says Greenyille IN. CO. special
of the 2Sth inst. to the Philadelphia Press,
is about to be heard before the Supreme
Court of this State, growing out of mort
gage on his own person, maae by white
man named John Hando, of Pitt county,
in this State, securing Jim Taker, cot
ton planter, for debt due him. The deed
reads: 81, John Hando, of the county of
Pitt, in the State of North Carolina, am
indebted to Jim Taker, of the State and
county aforesaid, in the sum of $26,
lOr which he holds my note, to be
due on the 18th day of Jan
uary, 1884, and to secure the
payment of ahe same l do hereby convey
to him these articles of personal property,
to wit: Myself to work with him long
enough to pay this debt; but on this
special trust, that If l fail to pay said
debt, right away. then he, the said
Taker, or his assigns, may sell me at the
court house door, for credit or cash, as he
thinks best, after giving twenty days
public notice, at three public places, and
apply the proceeds of such sale to the dis
charge of said debt, and interest on the
same, and cost and expenses of making
such sale, and pay the surplus, if any. to
me. Given under my hand and seal this
the 14th day of January, 1884,"
Hando failed to pay the amount Que
Taker, and the creditor was at liberty,
under the terms of the deed, to sell him
at public auction. Some time before the
expiration of the twenty days grace
allowed the mOrtgaged debtor, the news
got out, and the court house green was
crowded with people, expecting to wit
ness the novel sale of a white man. An
injunction was granted by the Superior
Court and no sale to 5e. The Su-
preme Court will hear Uhv case.

WHY Sick People Drink Tea.

Why is it that those who are sick or
cOnYalescing from sickness ask for and
relish cup Of tea! Why is it, again,
that physicians viii so often recommend
tea and forbid coffee? Plainly, the an
swer is because tea is a most wholesome
beverage, and in this respect excels coffee.
But, while the use Of tea is increasing,
there is one class Of the community who
do not realize the advantages that tea
offers to them; and that class is the very
poor in purse, who regard tea as a luxury
that they cannot afford, when, if they did
but know it, they could not afford to do
without tea. 1t is the general use Of tea
that will save many a Doctors bill. 1t is
tea that assists digestion, and it is tea
that makes ones beefsteak go further. In
this respect it is a positive economy, and
it is not always the lOwest-priced article
that is the cheapest. Quality in tea
means strength and flavor, and it is much
better and cheaper to buy good tea at a
fair price than to get the very low in
price; and it is good tea that the poor
man wants.

The Base Use to which an Eric Man Put
the Corpse of his Child.
Last week a case of alleged distressing
circumstances was reported from Erie,
says an Erie, Pa, special to the Cleveland
Leader. Peter Pascovith and his wife,
Frances, protesting to be exiled Nihilists.
were found ON the public streets with
their children, forming sort OF family
procession, heading for the cemetery.
The father had in his arms the corpse of Il
child wrapped up in a copy OF a newspa-
per. He claimed he was too poor to pur-
chase better shrOud, and thus done up
the corpse was taken TO the Cathedral and
deposited upon the steps leading to the
altar. The service of the dead having
been recited, the procession reform
ed, and the alleged Nihilist, pick
ing up his corpse, put it under his arm
and started for the graveyard. Beng
seen by Mr.. DOnOhue, a generOus-hearted
man, the procession was halted, a hack
was procured and the child was inferred
with decency. Tuesday morning the
police broke in upon PascOYith and found
nearly $3.50 in cash and stolen property
valued at as much more. 1t appears that
when the man went to bury his dead boy
in a newspaper he had all this money in
his possession. A few weeks before he
had visited the house of a neighbOr for
the purpose of borrowing money. The
next night while the neighbor was at
church his house was entered and two
trunks taken out. On the following day
the trunks were found on an adjacent
common. They had been burst open and
rifled of all that was considered worth
carrying off. In turning over the debris
the officers found $50 in bills which the
rObber had overlooked The man and
woman were arraigned and committed

TESTING LfFE-PREsERVERs.
The Floats on all Steamers to be Ex-
amined Carefully.

The Floats on all Steamers to be Ex-
amined Carefully.
Acting upon information given them at
their last annual meeting, says the New
York Times, the Supervising INSPECTORS
of Steam Vessels have been making a
quiet investigation into the condition of
lite-preservers on steamers. In many
cases they found the cork floats to be
miserable shams, entirely unfit to save a
human being from sinking at sea. 1t is
required by law that all life-preseryers
must contain at least six pounds of
good sound cork blocks, capable of
sustaining buoyancy of "a pounds. A
bu0yancy of fourteen pounds is considered
sufficient to float a body, but plenty of
latitude is allowed for soaking or Occa-
slOnal short weight. In examining the
floats on Michigan steamer. the Local
inspector found them all short weight,
and capable Of buoying only seventeen
pounds each. In Boston a twenty-four
pound weight tied to a Iife-preserver
taken from ferry boat sunk it like a
lump Of lead. About 200 more from the
same boat were found likewise faulty and
condemned. These preservers were fur
nished by contract, were made of black
cork, and cost about 70 cents each. Only
q ACN pAOoSt N6IS nave as yet Deen exam
ined in this city, but there were some
short weights among them.
From the examinations made so far it
seems that the most faulty life-preservers
are of recent make. Old ones, which
have been carefully stored away for years
on ferry boats, came up to the require
ments. A reason given for the deficiency
IN the new article is that competition has
forced down the price so that dishonest
manufacturers, in order to make ample
profit, have stuffed their goods with saw
dust instead of cork. Heretofore the
steamboat owners have bought their
floats and put them on the boats, the in
spectors taking their word for their effi-
cheney and simply seeing that a sufficient
number was provided. Hereafter, if the
orders are obeyed, each one will be
weighed.

GRANT AND BLAINE.
Why the Former Doesn't Want to Meet
the Latter.

Gen. Grant has been giving the Wash
ington correspondent of the New York
World another. talk. 1t seems he is not
mad with Blaine. He simply don't want
the impression to get abroad that he
tayors Blaine as Presidential candidate
The reporter asked-'Have you any
personal feeling against Mr.. Blaine?"
81 have not seen or spoken to him now
for nearly four years.
''ls not your reason for not desiring to
formally meet Mr.. Blaine at the present
time caused by the misconstruction that
would be put upon such meeting?"
THAT is it exactly. 1t is for no per-
sonal reason. During the last few weeks
a number OF newspaper paragraphs have
been printed claiming that an alliance
was being made between Blaine and nv
self, and that 1 had come here for the
special purpose of having a reconciliation
brought about. Now | am for one candi-
date as against all others, and don't
want to have any misapprehension about
my position. That is the reason why l
should not care to see or talk with Mr.,
Blaine at the present time"
''Do you think Mr.. COnkling will take
any part in politics during the coming
campaign? ?'
Il should think not. He is very deeply
immersed in business, and my impression
is that he will devote himself entirely to
it,
What do you think of Arthur's strength
in New York?7
Il think that he will get most of the
delegates east of the Hudson river and
south OF Albany, some of the New York
city delegates, but not many between
Albany and Buffalo"
''Do you think he will have the majority
Of the delegation?"
Il do not. At the same time l only
judge by what 1 see printed in the news
papers, in the interviews with the leading
public men in the State.''
Gen. Grant was asked some qnestions
about ArthuTs candidacy, which he said
he preferred not to answer for publica-
tion. Gen. Grant, in speaking of the lead
ing candidates, Blaine, Arthur and Lo-
gap, said:
81 think these gentlemen will go to
Chicago with positive strength in about
the order named. But L am not prepared
to say now that this strength will stand
by them all after the first ballot is taken"
wv here would Blaine's strength natur-
ally gO" was asked.
~ don't know. / should think it would
go to Logan. L am pretty sure it would
not go to Arthur
where would Arthur's strength natur-
ally go?"
81 have no real idea. Perhaps it might
90 to Edmunds. 1t is possible that the
support of the candidates might divide
and not be moved in blocks to any one."
