ExCITENIENTIN ROCHESTER,
Widespread CommOtion Caused
by that Remarkable state

The story published in these col

N. Y. Democrat, created deal o
comment here as it has elsewhere
Apparently it caused even more com
motion in Rochester, as the follow
ing from the same paper shows:
DR.. J. B. Henion, who is we'll
known not only in Rochester but in
nearly every part of America, sent
an extended article to this paper a
few days ago which was duly pub
llshed, detailing his remarkable ex-
perience and rescue from what seem.

impossible to enumerate the person
al enquiries which have been made
at our office rs to the validity OF the
article, but they have been so nu-
merous that further investigation OF
the subject was deemed an editorial
necessity.
With this end in view q represent
ative of this paper called on DR..
Henion at his residence on Andrews
street, when the following interview
occurred: "That article OF yours,
Doctor, has created quite a whirl-
wind. Are the statements about the
terrible condition you were in, and
the way you were rescued such as

but try to help the lungs. We
should not waste our time trying to
relieve the headache, pains about
the body or other symptoms, but GO
directly to the kidneys, the source OF
most of these ailments"
'sThis, then, is what you meant
when you said that more than one
half the deaths which occur arise
from Bright's diseas, is it Doctor:
Precisely, Thousands of diseases
are torturing people to day, which in
reality are Bright's disease in some

Mr.. Warner was visited at his es
tablshment on North 81. Paul street
At first he was inclined to be retl
cent, but learning that the informa
tion desired was about Bright's dis
ease, his manner changed instantly
and he spoke very earnestly;
"It is true that Brght's disease
lad increased wonderfully, and We
find, bv reliable statistics, that from
10 to 80, its growth was over 25(
per cent. Look at the prominent
men it has carried off Everett, sum
ner, Chase, Wilson, Carpenter, Bish
op Haven, Folger, Colfax aud others

the death Of some prominent mal
