Scandals Among the Noh,,,,v

The queen is furious over the Sum-
mer-Hoare- Cholmondeley business, and
has had all the names of the parties con-
cerned expunged from "the list" and
forbidden the levee, the DRAWN groom
and hall. The Cholmondeley came close
to her, the marquis, father OF the lady
who conveyed the letters from mar

THAT she thought she had done very
wrong" being joint hereditary grand
Chamberlain of England. AS for the
Fltzbardings, they have always been a
measly lot. One of them was mulcted
in large amount in an action by the
beautiful actress, Miss Fo1te, for deser-

The THEORY OF INCUBATION

Our telegraphic dispatches from Mex
leo yesterday morning announced fact
of more than passing interest to the peo-
Pile Of the gulf states. 1t was the inocu-
lation of persons with yellow fevervirus
as preventive of fever. The Mexican
government appears to have consented
that the experiment should be tiled on
an entire garrison in Vera Cruz. The
success attending vaccination to pre-
vent smallpox melted leading physi-
cans in Europe to try the same course
with reference to cholera, and it is said
with marked and encouraging results.
This new incubation mania has
reached the new world and, as stated,
has been applied as a preventive
of yellow fever to the south of us, and
the first results appear favorable and
eminently satisfactory.
Is it possible that medicine has found
the means OF checking the three great
est plaques Of modern times? That the
science of medicine is steadily progress
ing is unquestionable, and II these latest
experiments in incubation prove valua-
bic in their respective directions the
day ofsneering at physics is past forever.
Certainly there must be means of pre-
yention or cure, but it is proverbial
that an ounce Of prevention is worth a
pound Of cure.
Yellow fever has been the chief obsta
Gle to the development of the gulf
states. Northern and foreign capital
and immigration hesitate to come south
when dreading annually a visitation
from an epidemic of fever. 1t is not
fear of the people or the climate, or
doubt as to the magnificent returns of
labor and capital, but that bette noir to
those not accustomed to or native to
this climate, yellsw fever, has probably
deprived us OF more muscle and wealth
than all other causes combined.
Cleanliness, wise and timely sanitary
regulations have rendered this scourge
for some years past less frequent and
much less dreaded visitor, and IL
is possible TO quarantine ehectually
against 1t, but the only safe and really
satisfactory solution Of the trouble is
the discovery Of means-by inocula-
ton, possibly, or otherwiso-by which
the epidemic can be checked ut any
time in its inclpiency. II these expert
ments In Mexico prove successful, If the
secret has been found, the south will be
the gamer more largely than any other
section OF the world. Remove this
epidemic, or the fear Of it, from tho
southern gulf statos and those commu-
mites win fill up with population and
develop in wealth and industrial enter

Edmunds' Successor.

AID interviewer for the Boston
Evening Record has seen both
Judge Poland and ex-GOv. Smith.
The object seemed to be to get these
gentlemen to deny that they were can
didates for Senator Edmunds' place.
When told by the reporter that the
newspapers credited him with an itch
ing for Mr.. Edmunds' shoes, Judge PO-
land rather vigorously replied =
What fool started that The
whole thing is SO ridiculOnsly absurd
that / have thought denial uncalled
for" The judge declined to say any
thing further on the subject ut present,
and closed with the following signifi-
cant remark But | shall have some
thing further to say later, and it will
be something sharp, too. Understand
am entirely out of politics now. |
shall say just what | please, and
don't care Il copper for the result. No,
nothing further now shall put it i'll
writing"
The public will be interested, as it
always is, in any thing the Judge may
pen and if he will tell all he knows
about the ms and outs of politics, it
will make what Horace Greeley used to
term "mighty interesting reading"
Ex-GOv. Smith was more guarded
and wary in his expressions to the
newspaper scribbler. If the interview
or reported correctly that gentleman
"Gave your correspondent liberty to
say for him that he disclaimed any re-
spOnsibility whatever for the present
feeling of opposition to Mr.. Edmunds
in this state. That while regretting,
in common with large portion of the
republican party, the course pursued
by Mr.. Edmunds, and believing that
the defeat of the party might have
been prevented by Mr.. Edmunds if he
had not permitted his personal preju-
dices to influence lis action, neverthe-
less he had not permitted himself to
encourage any opposition to Mr.. Ed
munds, believing that the time had
not yet arrived for any decision as to
what is for the best interest of the par
ty. The people of the state he said,
will have abundant time before the
election of senator to consider the
question calmly and dispassiOnately,
and will act wisely and judiciously.'"
Gov. Smith added that he had given
no authority for the use of his name as
Il candidate, in opposition to Mr.. Ed
mnnds.
If, as we said above, the interviewer
reported correctly, take what Gov.
Smith said and what he didn't say,
and his utterance is quite suggestive.

Mac polphin Builder Fails.

John Roach, the builder of vessels
for the United States navy under
Secretaries Robson and Chandler, finds
his occupation gone now that Secreta
ry Whitney runs the navy department.
The story of the Dolphin dispatch boat
was given in last weeks CaledoDian.
News comes this week that Mr.. Roach
has made an assignment of his proper
ty and gone out of the ship building
business. 1t will be remembered that
the attorney general decided that the
Dolphin did not fulfil the contract and
that Mr.. Roach must refund the money
which for some unexplained reason
had already been paid To him. We
would not do this ship builder in
justice. but his throwing up the sponge
and retiring from business under the
cover of assignment at this time is
open to suspicion.
