a case of uncommon but not unhenrd
OF malady came under the writer's no.
tico recently. a young married man
sent n motto to his wife that no was sum
moned to n n%eighboring town on bust
moss and would be away all night. As
this contingency frequently arose in his
occupation nothing was thought Of the
announcement till the next day, when,
he not having returned, inquiries were
instituted, but no trace of his where
abouts could be found. Five days later
he was found in a distant western city
owe 900 miles from home, about to
take a train which would carry him still
farther towards the Pacific coast. lie
was brought home i'll, and suffered a
course Of typhoid fever, from which he
recovered as well as ever.
His physicians diagnosed his case as
walking typhoid, and the recital in de-
tail Of his wanderings, which he was
able later to perfectly recall, was terri
bly, suggestive. He had passed one en-
tire night walking up and down the
suspension bridge at Niagara Falls, un-
der the impression that his wife was to
meet him there and would be frightened
to nd herself alone in such a place.
Distressed at hor failure to be on hand,
he started in pursuit Of her. He stopped
at various Ahotels and restaurants,
boarded and left trains, always with a
definite purpose. Frequently he came
TO his senses, and knew that he was far
from home and travelling under a delu-
sion, but before no could fully recover
himself the hallucination was strong
upon him.
1t is possible that many mysterious
disappearances begin in iustsuch n half
rational desire to wander, with, how
ever, not tho same fortunate ending

'cicntlnc study Of riredamp.

From experiments carried on by the
French commission for the scientific
study Of iredamp, it is found that the
most violent explosion takes place when
there are thirteen parts of air to 100 of
fredamp, and that above or below this
the explosion diminishes in violence,
When the mixture is below seven parts
in 100, or above eighteen in 100 the gas
simply burns with its characteristic blue
flame. The singing noise often heard
in mines is ascribed to the escape of gas
from many minute cavities, while it
must exist in some places in vast guam
titles, as is witnessed by its use for il
Illuminating purposes.

EVERY Republican office holder knew
in his heart of hearts when the Democrats

civil service, his official life hung by a
thread. 1t has been so from the begin

therefore, the president sharpens his axe
the partisans, offensive and inofTensiye,
know the reason why. They are, or
ought to be prepared for it. Should the
Republicans recapture the white house in

and out.
