luton of the microbe Bacillus UTgulG.
He was one Of a commission sent from
Barcelona to study the cholera in Tou-
lon and Marseilles, and collected the
data furnishing him material for SUBJ
sequent experiment. The leading re-
suit of his work has been the Ferran
theory, recently made public, and
which asserts that cholera can be con-
veyed into the human body by inocu-
lation, with results assuring slight
attack of the disease, readily yielding
to remedies, and the prevention Of a
second attack. With the praiseworthy
devotion of the man of science, he
inoculated himself first, then his as
sistant, and afterwards other persons.
Don Jaime Ferran was born at Cor
bera, Tarrsgona, February l, 1852.
His preparatory studies were CON-
pleted at Tortosa and Tarragona, after
which he entered the Medical College
of Barcelona. He was graduated in
his profession in 1873, when he began
practice at Tortosa, where he still re-
sides.
DR.. Ferran is an indefatigable student
of science, and relieves his grayer pur-
suits by the art of painting, in which
he has achieved considerable eminence.
His standing in the community is high
as man of learning, elegant culture,
and exalted character.

A West virginia saaks story.


Brsxton county can down the State
on snake wonders. A gentleman living
not far from the county-seat lately sue
ceeded in capturing snake or pair of
snakes corresponding to the Siamese
twins. The reptile has two heads and
two tails, and the balance Of the body
looks like that of single snake, with
the exception of slight depression
both above and below, extending the en-
tire length. The bodies join about six
inches from the heads, the tails are al
most foot long after leaving the body,
while the length Of the portion joined
is two feet and nine inches. The twins
were first seen two weeks ago by a
little son of the gentleman who pos
sesses the wonder, who told his father
what be had seen, and showed him the
track crossing the road. The gentle
man made a thorough search at the
time, but failed to capture the prize.
He, however. ran across it few days
since, and succeeded in noosing and
taking it captive. Both the snakes are
jet black, with yellow ring just be-
hind the head. They both eat, and in
travelling seem to be wholly Of the
same opinion as to direction, &C., stop
ping AZ precisely the same time, and ap-
pearing to have one mind about every
thing. We pondered carefully before
hazarding eur reputation for veracity
by reporting this phenomenon, but de-
cided to enlighten the world at what
ever cost, and to place Braxton county
foremost on the list Of wonders.

4 OF Miss IRENE BURKE, OF

The death OF Miss IRENE BURKE. Of
this city, has brought sorrow 90 many low
Ing hearts. Her pure. and gentle. and
guileless life gives earnest OF q blessed ana
happy Immortality. Dying youig. before
blight or care had tinged the beauty OF her
existence or destroyed Its roma see. her
'ssinted and enskied spirit . now reposss
gently In the bosom of her Maker and in
the blissful Heaven OF HIS creation. Her
bones may decay and her flesh return To
dust, but the verdure OF her grave will be
forever kept fresh and green by the tears Of
her many and loving friends. Her heart
was kind, her life q model, her examples
worthy OF oil Imitation. She died before
Decays efiacing hngers had marred tho
beauty OF life or contact with the world
had shown the falsity OF Its glamOr or this
hcllowness OF It's sincerity. No wonder.
then, that the ancient apothegm that thoss
whom the gods love die young IL 81 unlver-
sally recognized. Lingering with that fatal
disease consumption, she calmly waited the
inevitable hour. and. bidding weeping
relatives good-by and sending loving mes
sages to absent friends, she, with Christian
fortitude and faith, then and there con-
sented TO die. The consolation to weeping
friends is contained In the reflection that
the " less OF earth the more OF Heaven"

that in her great reward she has realized
her brighteBt visions In her abode In His
golden atty. FarewelDto thee, dear lRENE.

Virginia sim Alive-The Coupons.

Virginia Still Alive-Ihe Coupons.
The people Of this city were for
twenty years after the establishment of
the gas-works called upon only once in
three months to pay their gas-bills.
The consequence was that the bills be
came SO large as to cause numerous
complaints and often great dissatisiac-
ton. Sometimes landlords found heavy
bills charged against houses owned by
them, the renters Of which houses had
left unpaid gas-bills as legacy to the
owners. AT present the gss-bills are
rendered every month, and the con-
sumers pay them with much greater
convenience.
Why cannot the State taxes be made
to fall due once every quarter, instead
of once a years 1t would be much
easier for many taxpayers to pay their
taxes in instruments, and involve little
or no additional trouble to the tsx-col-
lectors. But, above all. it would kill
off the coupons. The letter which we
published some time ago from the Sec
rotary Of the Commonwealth shows
that there are only GAS taxpayers who.
pay over sl00 taxes annually. No
other taxpayers than these, and
only such Of these as pay si20
year of taxes, could use the $50
coupons, if the annual taxes were di-
vided into quarterly taxes. Nobody's
taxes would be increased. The differ
ence would be that every taxpayer
wonld have the privilege, as we have
said, of paying in instalments. s7OS,-
600 out of the s99s,660 of coupons
which mature annually are ego cou-
pons. The number of persons who
could use the smaller coupons would
also be reduced by such a Law as
we are speaking Of. But we need
make no more figures. If by
changing the law, and allowing tax
payers to pay 10 cents four times a
year instead Of 40 cents once year,
Virginia can get rid Of all the coupons
annually maturing except about $780,
900, the bondholders would soon fund
under the RIDDLEBERaER bill (; for
there would be SO many more coupons
maturing annually than could be sold
to taxpayers that the competition be-
tween the sellers Of coupons would at
once run the price Of them down to a
point where it would be more profitable
to fund than to sell the coupons.
We throw out these suggestions as u
mere hint of what could be done and as
awarning to the bondholders and to the
coupOn-sellers that Virginia is still alive
and able to defend her interests.

THE DARIEN WE'LL MYSTERY.
No Clue 10 the IdsnniY OF the Body Nor Trace
of the Murderer.

No Clue 10 the Id,nn'Y or, Body Nor Tace
of the Murderer.
A Bridgeport Conn., special says :
As yet nothing has been learned that
will throw definite light on the Darien
we'll horror, and it seems destined to
take its place with the five Connecticut
murder mysteries-Henrique Schultz,
at South Norwalk; Phoebe Brush and
Rose Amber, at Stratford, and Mary
Stannard and Jennie Cramer, at New
Haven. The coroner returned this
morning from his visit to Mrs.
Smith, in Basking Ridge, N. j.,
and expresses himself as satisfied
that the remains are neither those
Of Thomas Lahey nor Thomas Lamb,
be having obtained evidence that both
men are still alive. The tramp theory
seems to be the most probable one, and
it is doubtful If the name of the de-
ceased or his murderer will ever be dis
covered. 1t is said a detective from
Pinkerton's New York agency has been
employed by the State to look into the
mystery. If so it is hoped he may
meet with better success than in either
the Rose Amber or Jennie Cramei
case. Yesterday letter was received
by Chief Daskam, of the Stamford
police, from one Mary Lawler, of New.
ark, n. j., in which she expresses her
self as troubled with the fearful thought
that the deceased may be her brother.
Michael Egan, who has been in jail
here for several days on suspicion Of
being the murderer, was released this
morning. Coroner Holt has been IN
Darien to-day taking testimony from
those witnesses summoned on Tuesday,
and who, for want Of time on that day,
were not examined.

wards Z whole clsss Of cases, he ought
70 be publicly told Of that. And these
coupon suits furnish case In point.
The Federal Court, in the case Of An
toni rs. Wright, U. s., 100, distinctly
decided that the State had right to
require tax-receivsble coupons to
be. proved. II follows necessa-
rHy. as every lawyer knows,
that the best evidence in the case can
be required and that this best evidence
is the production OF the proper bond,
that it may be seen, and proved by in
spection that the coupon was cut from
il. This is good law it is law, which,
learn, has been established in the case
of certain railroad coupon bonds. But
the States attorneys are afraid to ask
our Judges, either here or at
Lynchburg, to enforce this plain rule
of evidence, because these judges
are believed to be too prcjudiced
against the law to grant the motion.
But at this very time it is expedient
that she shall be able to get justice
from her own State judges; since 1t
has been denied in all the Federal
cosrts. BY the decisions in the coupon
cases, April 20, 1885, an effort was
made to repeal the eleventh amend
ment by disgraceful bubble,
leaving the State only the mar
row margin conceded in Antoni VS..
Wright) Of right to have her tax-re-
ceivable coupons proved in court.
These late decisions, and still later, the
decision of May 4, 1885, establish at
least this that elf q taxpayer seeks
by msndamus to compel the officers Of
the State to receive coupons in payment
of taxes, he must pursue the remedy
prescribed in the act of January IA,
1852, and that although the tax be a
license tax
But, as we learn from the Dispatch
above quoted. Judges Bond and Hughes,
in contempt Of this decision and with
Characteristic contempt Of law, by their
decree of June IL, 1885, have under
taken to control the revenues OF the
State by directing their clerk to receive
and deposit in bank, coupons that had
been offered for taxes without testing
their genuineness at all and they de-
eide this in case so small in amount
that no appeal can lie to the Supreme
Court. This usurpation, if permitted,
will sweep away the margin on which
the State now stands by permission Of
the decree Of Antoni Us. Wright and
will remit the case entirely to the pa
triotism Of the people in their individual
; capacity. And this will make an OPP
portunity for sordid men. All citizens
are not patriots.
I do not accuse Judges Atkins and
Latham Of any completely with their
fellow-Republicans, the judges of the
Federal courts, in this litigation. |
am not assailing their characters at all /;
but l am attacking their fairness or
competency, one or both; and it mat
tiers not how sincere they may be, or
how amiable, if they refuse to do JUS
tice to the State. That refusal gives
the bondholders all the advantage they
would derive from an actual conspiracy
to defeat the Riddleberger bill

Tit for Tat.

Undoubtedly Austria has the right to
refuse to receive Mr.. KELLEY as Min
lister, whether she gives any reason for
such refusal or not.
But undoubtedly UNCLE SAM has the
same right to refuse to send another
Minister in Mr.. KEILEY's place. The
pretext. that nobody knows Austria S
reasons will not avail to secure Min
lister acceptable to VICTOR EMANUEL's
natural son. UNCLE SAM is as free as
FRANCIS JOSEPH to act without giving
reasons for his action. I.has so happened
that Republican ascendency in this
country for the last twenty-five years
has kept Mr.. KELLEY and all other
good Democrats out Of public life,
Consequently Austria can have no ex'
cuse for refusing to receive him, except
such ridiculous reasons as are vel
known and have been stated agar
and again. Surely Mr.. CLEvELANI
will not allow such a slight to pass un
noticed.

that it cannot fail to rebound to the
benefit Of the Democratic party. The

generally keeps its head pretty level,
has this to say by way Of advice to the

propositions we have laid down:
"The actual state Of affairs is that .
