The Sanitary Value of Trees.

DIR. Stephen Smith recently read a
paper before the New York Academy of
Sciences on the sanitary value of trees in
the city. 1t is a we'll known fact that
during the intense heat of summer there
is more suffering and death from sun
stroke and high temperatures in the
Northern cities than in the South, a re-
suit which must certainly be attributed
to the absence of suitable protection.
From three to five thousand people die
every summer in the metropolis from the
effects of heat.
In the arid, treeless streets and avenues
the temperature often runs from 100 to
$50 degrees Fahrenheit, when under the
branches of a thrifty shade tree it would
not exceed seventy or eighty degrees
In the absence of shelteriug trees,
the stone and brick walls act on the prin-
ciple of the regenerative furnace, and
absorb the heat of the sun to yield it up
again during the night. If trees were
planted IN the streets, the pavements and
surrounding walls would be much cooler,
and at the same time the trees would alb
sorb the deleterious gases thrown off from
the lungs and from decomposing matter,
yielding, in return, supply of pure oxy.
gen.
The value of systematic culture OF
trees in all of our large cities can hardly
be estimated. From both sanitary and
artistic standpoint they are very desira
BILE addition to any city.-Scientifc

A Tragedy of the Far West.

A dispute arose in an |, lian cllup
near Stockton Hall, Arizona, recently,
and before it ended buck named Pizzur
with his Winchester rifle shot and killed
All Quirthe and his squaw, daughter
of Chief Levc- Levc, mortally wounded
another buck and another daughter of
the chief. and slightly wounded two
other Indians Then the murderer fled,
pursued by mounted braves. Head Chief
Surrum arrived at the camp soon after,
and his first order was to kill all the rel
atives of the murderer. The sQuaws and
pappooscs hurried to the miners camp
near by, and begged hiding places in
their cabins, and this aroused the miners,
who told the chief that he could not
cary out his bloody plan, and that he
mus countermand his order. He re-
luctantly complied, but issued fresh
orders to bring Pizzur in at any cost.
In the mean time the avengers were
riding fast after the fleeing murderer,
and followed his trail into the Wallar al
Valley until darkness put an end to the
pursuit. Early next morning they took
up the trail, and, after riding twelve
miles, they came upon the dead bodies
of the murderer and his horse 1t was
apparent that after riding his horse until
he gave out the Indian killed him, and
then, putting the muzzle of his Win
chester to his right eye, pulled the trig.
ger, and cheated his pursuers of thoil
anticipated vengeance.

step aside, and approaching the waters
'dgc, launch their boats seward,
consigning them and their freight with
many God speeds to tho realms of the
deep seas dead.
Each one of these little craft are sup
piled with paper lantern and combusti-
bles, which, after being set afoat ig-
mite and continue to burn for a length Of
time. At this stage of the proceedings
already the darkness has followed the
end of the third day, and soon the sur
face of the water is covered with hun
dreds of these burning ships, the lights
of which, mngling with those on land,
the blazing rockets and the illuminated
temples and habitations, with the in
creasing splendor of pyrotechnics of all
descriptions, make up fitting finale of
the strange and startling scenes associated
with the Feast of Bong.

Sad Fate of q Young Lady.

In Aspen, Col, a party of young ladies
climbed to the top of the fire bell tower,
sixty feet high, to obtain a good view of
the city. Eppa Stewart stepped to the
edge of the tower, and was leaning
against corner post, looking over the
country. when the janitor not knowing
of the presence of the ladies, seized the
bell rope to call a meeting of the fire
company. The sudden clang of the
great bell startled Miss Stewart. and she
plunged from the dizzy height to the
pavement. She was carried into neigh
boring ouse, when it was discovered
that DO, legs were so badly crushed
that the fec had been driven to within a
few inches of the knee. The bones of
her left arm were broken into splinters,
and five ribs on the right side were
broken and torn loose from the spine.
She was alive when picked up, but her
death occurred soon after.

!'Dreams are but interludes which fancy makes,
d In the purple dreamland lying,
White winged dreams,
Sleep with folded piuions fair
In the hearts of violets rare,
Where the yellow rose lies signing,
Slumbering seems.
Soft grey clouds with sleep oerweigted
Far are seen,
And each heavy lidded star
Drifts through dream seas still and far,
Mists Of gold, with peace o'erfreigh.ed,
Lie between.
Brooding wings stretch DER the meadows
Purple barred,
Snowy lilies, faced with gold,
In their bosoms dreams enfold,
Where the night wings cast their shadows
Golden starred
In the mist land dreams are lying
Full of peace,
Weary souls give up dark care
In the dream land far and fair.
In the hearts of roses signing
Sorrows cease

Most Physicians believe time will
come when the sun will radiate much
less heat than it has furnished the earth
since the life period on our globe began.
If this be true, and there are many good
reasons for believing that it is, time
will also come when the amount of heat
emitted by it will be so small that only
life of the highest and hardest forms
can be sustained on the earth.

Consumptives should use food as nourishinp
MS can be had, and in a shape that will best
agree with the stomach and taste of the pa
tient.
Outdoor exercise is earnestly recommended
II you are unable to take such exercise on
horseback or on foot, that should furnish no
excuse for shutting yourself indoors, but you
should take exercise in a carriage, or in some
other way bring yourself in contact with the
open air.
Medicines which cause expectoration must
be avoided. For five hundred years ply
sicians have tried to cure Consumption by
u ing them, and have failed. Where there is
great arrangement of the secretions, W tn
engagement Of air-cells, there is always
profuse expectoration. Now Pisos Cure re-
moves the engagement and the arrangement
Of the secretions, and consequently land in
this way only diminishes the amount of mat
ter expec;orated. This medicine does not dry
up a cough, but removes the cause of it.
When it is impossible from debility or other
causes to exercise freely in the open air, apart
ments occupied by the patient should be so
ventilated as to ensure the constant accession
of fresh air in abundance.
The surface of the body should be sponged
as often as every third day with tepid water
and little soft-soap. This is preferable to
any .other.l After thoroughly drying, use
friction with the hand moistened with oil
Cod-Liver or Olive is the best. This keeps the
pc es of the skin in soft. pliable condition,
which contributes mate tally to the unloading
of waste matter from the system through this
organ. You will please recolltc we cure tn s

to perform their 1uncti ms in II rmal way,
or, in other woid DIS, we remove obstructi II
while the recuperat.ve powers of the system
cure the disease.
We will here say word in reg I'd to cough
in the rming stage, where there is no cor
stitutional or noticeable disease. cough
may or may not forcshadow serious evil take
it in its mi des form, 10 say the least, it is a
nu sance. and should be abated.
A cough is unlike any other symptom of dis
ease. 1t stands conspirator. with threaten
ing voice, menacing the health and existence
of a vital organ. Its first approac is in wits.
pers unintelligible, and att first too often un.
needed, but in time it never fails to ma itself
understood-never fails to claim the attenti Il
of those on whom it calls.
II you have cough without disease of the
lungs or serious constitutional disturbance, SC
much the better, as few do es of Pisos Cure
will be all you may need, while if you re far
advanced in Consumption, several bottles may
be REQUIRED to effect permanent cure.

tanned great notoriety in her suits against
the state Of Louisiana to recover portions
Of New Orleans. Mrs. Gaines lived IN New
Orleans for years aud died there, but she
claimed to be n resident Of Kings county
She died year ago last January, leaving
FIVE wills, and 1t is probable that the con-
test which is almost certain TO occur over
the extensive property that she left will be
commenced in Brooklyn. The will offered
for probate yesterday is much-soiled
document 10 is written on fOoscap with
purple ink and signed by cross, which Is
followed by note stating that Mrs. Gaines
was too weak to write her name. IL states
that the decedent lived in Louisiana, but
was citizen of New York. To Mrs. Vir-
ginia II. Davis the testator gives prop
erty at the Parish Of st. Landry,
about 500 acres; to her daughter in-law, Hat
We l.. Hall Whitney, widow OF William
Wallace Whitney, and to her son.in-law,
James Y. Christmas, husband OF Rhoda
Whitney Christmas, deceased, $780, 900 each;
to their children, who Mrs Gaines declares
were born in wedlock, she bequeaths her
estate, real and personal; to Edmund PEN
dleton Gaines, son of Maj. Gen. Edmund
p, Gaines, her second husband, $4,000; TO
George w. Benson, Of Marlette, Ga, her
friend, $4,000; TO the Rev John w. IIar-
mon, of Mississippi $4,000; to Myra Clark

and James Y. Christmas, of Washington,
are appointed executors without bonds.
The witnesses are John T. Belts, William
G. Harrison, lawson l.. Davis, w. NJ.
Levy, aud Dr. William II. lIolcombe
Before this will was illel Surrogate Lott
received an affidavit from Marie Z. Evens
which indicates somewha. the character OF
the contest that is TO be made. The depo.
nent says In the affidavit that she under.
stands that Mcssrs. Wilder and Christmas,
claiming to be Mrs. Galnes's executors, are
about to have a will dated Jan. b, 1885, al-
mitted to probate In Kings county. She
claims that she has IN her possession will
drawn Jan. 8, 1885, and one drawn In
Washington in 1884, both of which have
been offered in probate in New Orleans.
Further she adds that the last will was over
thrown "by a shameless combination OF
fraud and conspiracy in the lower courts,
which was followed up by Justification of
every page of Opponents record by the
supreme court of the state"
