Success of Vaccination in India.


1t might have been supposed that of all
the countries in the world India was the
one in which the bitterest opposition
would have been offered to compulsory
vaccination. This, however, does not ap.
pear to be the case. According 20 the
latest report of the sanitary condition of
the country, the working of the acts,
wherever they have been applied, has not
been attended with any great diff
Guilty. The people in most cases yield
to simple persuasion, and in a few in
stances where they prove refractory the
issue of a summons is almost always eff
fectual. Opposition fOstered by caste
prejudices is in some places still tostered,
but as a rule the masses now accept vac
cination with readiness, and in some
parts it is even sought after and paid for.
In Bengal, Madras and Bombay, the Pun
jaub, the northwestern and central prov
inces, Berar, Assam and British Burmah,
the total number of persons operated upon
during the year was over 4, 100000. Gen.
orally speaking, the treatment appears to
have been successful, the ratio ranging as
high as $3.50 per cent.

The South Florida Railroad.

A dispatch to the MORNING NEWS an
nOunces that the last rail was laid on the
Kissimmee and Tampa line Of railroad yes
terday afternoon. The completion of this
line marks an important step in the pro-
gress of railroad development in Florida.
1t opens up an immense section of the
State, heretofore almost inaccessible, and
also a new route t. Cuba. The terminus
OF the line on the Gulf is the nearest rail
road point in this country to Cuba. A
line Of steamers, it is understood, will be
established between Tampa, Key West
and Cuba. The South Florida Railroad,
from Tampa to Kissimmee, was pur-
chased last summer by the Plant In
provement Company. One Of the condi-
tions attached to the sale was that the
road should be extended from Klssimmee
to Tampa. The extension was begun at
once, and under the able direction Of Col.
II. ;. Haines, the General Manager, was
pushed rapidly forward. 1t is about 100
miles in length, and is an important addi-
ton 70 FlOrida's railroad system.

In summing up for the defendant in the
suit of Adolph SaIbrig against Samuel
Katzvke. tried yesterday afternoon before
Judge REYNOLDS in the City Court, lawyer
Morris Godhart edited the court, jury and
spectators with a lucid explanation OF the
origin and significance Of the term
"Sheeuy." The suit was for $1,000 dam
ages for malicious prosecution, and grew
out OF a ueighborhood quarrel among some
Hebrews on Johnson avenue, near Ellery
street. in the Eastern district. Among
the epithets used on the occasion was
that Of ''Sheeny." the plaintiff was ar
rested. with another man, at the instance
Of the defendant, but discharged by JUS
tice Massey. The other man was held.
Plaintiff claimed that the arrest was ma
licious, for the reason that a number of the
bystanders told the defendant on the way
to the station house that plaintiff was
innocent of the charge against him. In
explaining the origin and meaning Of the
enithet. ssSheeny." Mr.. Godhardt said
that it came from the words "Meesa,' a
Hebrew word, which means death, and
"Mashinnah," a Sanskrit word, which
originally signifed sudden. Collectively
these two words signifed sudden death.
They were first applied as a mark of OPP
probiHm to the Israelites by the Egyp-
tians while they were IN bondage IN
Egypt, and were aftefward applied to
each other for the same purpose during
forty years wanderings in the wilderness.
After the Israelites arrived in Palestine
the epithet continued to be applied to
them BY the surrounding tribes, and it
has chung to them to the present day,
after having been corrupted to its present
form of "Sheeny.v Originally it was
ssMeesa- Mashinna," or Sudden DEATH"
The jury gave verdict for $50. Henry
Fulhner appeared for the plaintiff.

Indre Clarke,s Retirement.

On Saturday, January 10, Richard IL.
Clarke retired from the Office Of Judge of
the City Court of Atlanta. He occupied
the position eight years. Judge Clarke is
a native of this city. He is recognized as
a lawyer of ability and an able and inter-
esting writer. The following is an eX-
tract from the minutes of the court:
sThis day, the 18th of January. 1884, com
pletes tho second term and the eighth year OF
nv official service as Judge OF the City Court
of Atlanta. During that time l have not
failed from any cause TO perform, AT the time
appointed, every duty required OF me, except
from sickness, for not exceeding a week III all
those years; while the business OF the court
has made it necessary to be kept in session
from eight to nine months IN the course OF
each and every year, which running through
the whole year has allowed only few weeks,
at intervals, for vacations, and these short va
cations have often been periods OF labor from
the business incident to the court, and my Ju-
dicial powers. Among the latter was my duty
to preside in the Superior Court, In retiring
from Office / can conscientiously declare
that have strictly kept that part OF my Oath
of Office which required me to administer JUS
tice without respect to person, and do equal
rights to the poor and the rich ! have ID
every case kept justice constantly before me
as the end to be attained, and held the law as
the means to that end. heneVer required,
and it was possible, IN the administration OF
the criminal laws, / have done justice with
mercy, without which justice becomes severe
and vindietive and is defeated IN her object to
suppress crime and have compassion for the
failings Of our kind. AS to that part OF my
oath OF office. which bound me- to perform
all the duties incumbent on me, accord
ing to the best Of my ability
and understanding ] can reler to my re-
cord as the Judge OF this court in the Supreme
Court, from which it appears that up to this
date out of IS cases there have been 65 affirm
ances: and what affords me more satisfaction
than the large majority OF aflirmances IS that
the errors / Committed, unless misled by some
technicality, always leaned to justice side
When / assumed the duties of the office
resolved to make my personal interest and
convenience subordinate to that of the profess
sion and the people, in. conformity with the
contract ! had thus made with them. My
success in executing this resolution can be
tested by the dockets and minutes OF the
court, and the individual testimony of every
one. whether lawyer or layman. who had
need Of nv service"

The Root of all Evil.

A terrible affair recently happened at
Pueblo. An employe of the railroad
brought home all his savings, $500, in
bank bills, as a surprise to show his wife,
who did not know he had that amount of
money. Hearing the approach of the
train he put them on the table and ran out
to his work, and his wife went to the
door to look after him. During her alb
sence their little three-year-old daughter
crawled up to the table, and seeing the
roll of bright colored papers threw them
in the fire. The father on his return on
learning of the loss struck the child such
a terrible blow as to kill it, and that
night, filled with remorse, cast himself
under the wheels Of a train and COM
mitted suicide. The mother became in
sane and is now in the asylum.
