QUEER BATHING.
Sick Men and Women Who Spend One
Third of the Day In Water.

Sick Men and Women Who Spend One
Third of the Day In Water.
In this country, and indeed in most
lands, when people 60 to watering
places to drink and bathe, the latter
process is generally performed once a
day. But at the little Swiss village of
Lenkerbad the visitors almost live in
the baths. 1t is place set amongst
the mountains, at height over three
thousand feet above the sea, where
there are a great number of hot
springs all strongly impregnated with
minerals. Big bathing-houses are
built here, in which are deep tanks
and reservoirs, crossed with bridges,
from which little steps run down into
the water. Invalids from many coun-
tries in Europe go there, and they lit
orally board in the water for awhile.
They arise at five a. M, and go to the
baths-a motley crowd of invalids,
some limping, some doubled half over.
The great pools lie before them, turbid
and hot. The steam fills the great
room. There is sulphurous smell
generally, but the bathers are not ap-
palled. They change their ordinary
attire for great, loose flannel gowns,
and descend, or are helped, into the
bath.
There are seats around the sides. On
these the most helpless sit with their
shoulders just above water. Others
walk about and talk to each other.
Little tables float about, only the tops
being visible, so that they look like tiny
RATS. There will be thirty-five invalids
in the same great pool sometimes-men
and women, who meet and introduce
each other as if they were on dry land.
And when all are assembled, walters
descend into the baths and serve a
breakfast to each invalid on the little
floating tables, The invalids feast,
and, after the plates and cups are re-
moved, they paddle about till noon,
when all leave the bath, but only to re-
turn at two or three O'Clock. Some
have lunch in the water; some do not.
There are those who play chess and
dominOes ON the tables. There are a
few who read in books well covered
with oiled silk. Singing is in favor,
and sometimes the whole bath full OF
invalids will join in a popular song.
1t is considered essential to stay in
the water eight hours each day.
Strangely enough they are lively,
cheerful and full of talk. 1t must be
their nationalities that enables them to
endure such treatment so cbeerily.
Fancy any American you ever knew,
after eight hours of soaking in hot and
sulphurous water! 1t seems incredible
that any one could derive benefit from
such treatment, but these Europeans
declare that the effect of the Lenker-
bad is almost miraculous.-M Y.
Ledger.

HEWITT'S WHOLEsOME LETTER.
 The contest for the mayoralty in New York city does not decrease in interest as time goes on. Georges wild sayings are attracting more and more attention to the real charac- ter of the movement with which he is identi- fed and the rallying of the rank Socialists, Anarchists and other would-be revolutionists to his standard is noticed.
 MT. Georges letter to MT. Hewitt has brought forth a reply which defines the issue of the canvass very clearly. In his letter to Mir Hewitt MT. George said that his (Hew- itt's) election involves the subversion of the Democratic principle, the overthrow of the foundation upon which the security of bus- ness rests, the arraying of class against class and the popular indorsement of doctrines which must lead to repetition of the hor- TOTS of the French revolution and the atroci- ties of the commune. To this absurd stuff Mir. Hewitt sharply replies follows: You do not, of course, admit that any such conse- quence will follow the adoption of your views. Neither did Robespierre, St. Just or Couthon foresee or admit the horrors in which they were soon forced to take part. Nor did the amiable Girondists ever suppose that they would die resisting the fearful con- sequences of the doctrine which they had ad- vocated.
 MT. Hewitt calls attention to the fact that although MT. George mayor could not do anything to introduce new principles of leg islation the moral effect of his election would be an indorsement of hls peculiar views as to the nature of property. And he further says: You refer to your platform as containing a novel principle of taxation, to which you justly do me the credit of supposing that I will object, t'that all taxation upon buildings and improvements ought to be abolished and taxes should be levied upon land irrespective of improvements. I certainly do object to this principle of taxation as unjust and posi- lively immoral. Taken in connection with your declaration made in your work upon Progress and Poverty" that you do not pro pose to confscate the land, but only ''to ap- propriate land by taxation" think you in- tentionally propose system of downright robbery which would reduce society to state of chaos in which brute force would predom- .inate and only the cunning and strong would survive. In such state of society neither you nor would have any chance of exist ence.
 It is good thing to have the real meaning of the George movement plainly set forth and MT. Hewitt has done it we'll. In his man. ner of dealing with the issue of the campaign he shows his marked fitness for the honor which has been thrust upon him.

specification, is two and half tons at e1 each. If several incinerations take place on the same day, only one and a quarter tons are charged after the first.
 Judge Birdsalrs remarks to reporter of the New York Tribune are not received with enthusiastic approval by all for whom he professed to speak. Thus a prominent Knight of Labor writes to the Hartford Post: As far as I can see and hear, everyone will vote his old ticket as usual, and do not know of a Republican, Knight of Labor, or trades union man that will vote the Democratic free trade ticket for the protection of Amer ican labor in the next election, and if any one seems to be disturbed in his mind as to which way he will vote it is the man who usually votes the Democratic ticket. It looks little peculiar that as soon as Dem ocratic free trade President is elected we are in trouble about wages and work. Perhaps if there had been change in the admin istration there would not have been so great a rush there has been in the year past to join some labor organization. If all labor ing men do not join some union I find most of them in favor of such step, as they do not know what may happen in the near future in the conflict that seems to be impending. A great many foreigners are taking steps to become naturalized, so that they will be able to vote in the next election for President ,and it seems to me that there will be great change in that election. The 1aboring men are getting tired of being sold out by the Democratic party, and having it published abroad that they are handled like dough by Democratic politicians.

 that the Republican apathy" which the
 Democrats have been consoling themselves
 with does not exist to any great extent in
 this region.
 1 In London & society has been formed to train persons for missionary work in Africa. Wonder if this society knows what to tell | the missionaries to tell the live heathen about the dead ones.
 S. R. Leake, & Knight of Labor, who has | been investigating the labor question at the South, says that the negroes are cheated by the store order system out of great part of the small wages promised them. Many | workers on plantations get no wages at all and are not even half fed and clothed. The Germans are very wide awake in mili- | tary matters. Trained dogs were successful ly used during the recent German maneuvres | for the transmissions of messages. The l dogs were a species of collie, and when not l utilized as messengers did duty with the field watch and the sentinels, to whom they proved to be of considerable service in giv
 ing the alarm upon the slightest occasion. Mr. P M Arthur, the chief of the Broth
 erhood of Locomotive Engineers, is 8 man of sense In his latest talk he said that the
 brotherhood owes it's prosperity ito the fact that we mind our own business and leave
 others to mind theirs" AS to the George
 movement he does not sympathize with it, | because Git brings the question of class into politics, which won't do." Moreover, he says: "Quite large number of our members | own their own homes, and I am sure they | would seriously object to giving them up to men who don't own homes, and never would ! if their possession depended upon their own exertions."
