The customs of modern society and the
predominance of the habit of dram drinking
have caused the great prevalence of chronic
Bright's disease and this fact is not only
we'll known to the medical profession, but
familiar to the public; and the remarkably
insiduous character of its approach makes
it highly important that q warning should
be given to unprofessional persons in rela.
tion to it.
That Bright's disease is durable in its
early stage is beyond doubt and that it is
absolutely incurable in its last stage, is also
beyond doubt; therefore, in order to give
an individual suffering with this disease all
the advantages of medicine, and as there
are no ordinary symptoms by which the dis
ease may be detected, the patient should be,
as early as possible, brought under medical
treatment. In the absence of an early med
ical treatment the chances of cure are Sc
riously diminished for when the structure
OF an organ of the body is once seriously in
Jured by disease medical art possesses no
means whereby it can be restored to its nat
ural vigor. Let it be distinctly understood
that in the early stage of Bright's disease
there are no symptoms to denote it's pres
ence to the unassisted senses and in order
to detect it chemistry aud the microscope
are the only reliable resources for an accu.
rate knowledge of the existence of the pres
ence of the disease.
HOW TO SUSPECT THE DISEASE.
Notwithstanding the constitutional symp-
tons of chronic Bright's disease are com.
monty those belonging to any other serious
disease of the important organs of the body,
it has certain general bodily signs which,
when present, may lead the patient to sus.
pect that there is impairment going on IN
the kidneys.
There are many diseases which make
known their presence by the signs which
they present; but it is not 50 with chronic
Bright's disease. Its presence must be sus'
pected and looked for before it can be des-
iguated, and in order to attain this end, It
must be searched out from among the null
tituds of common symptoms that accompany

raj effect.

MISS BAYARD'S SUDDEN DEATH.
CAUSED BY HEART DISEASE.
How The White House Reception Was
Interrupted by a Sad Event.
DEATH OF MISS KATE BAYARD.
The White House Reception Suspended
ON Receipt Of the Sad News.

Miss Kate Bayar eldest daughter of the Sec
rotary of State, died suddenly about three
o'clock this afternoon. The reception at the
White House was suspended Immediately on
the receipt Of the news of her death.
Miss Bayard, Miss Love and Mrs. Utley wer
to have assisted Miss Cleveland at the White
House reception this afternoon. The other la
dies were dressed, awaiting the arrival of Miss
Bayard ut the White House, when her death
was announced to them.
Miss Bayard died at her home on Massa-
chusetts avenue. The announcement Of her
death was sent to the White House and caused
Miss Cleveland to postpone her Saturday after
noon reception.
Many persons called at Mr.. Bayard's house to
inquire, but could 10 lrn nothing fult Ter this
afternoon than that Miss Layard was dead.
When STAR reporter called he was told by
Mr.. Bayards secretary: 81 cannot tell you any,
thing now. cannot even tell you whether she
died suddenly or not, or at what time. You
may know it all this evening""
HEART DISEASE THE CAUSE OF DEATH.
Drs. Pope and Gardner were called. DR.. Pope
told STAR reporter, who saw him when he
left the house, that Miss Bayard had been dead
several hours when the doctors arrived. He
said the cause of death was heart disease, from
which she had been suffering for several years.
ttShe had much energy, and had held out
against physical weakness, but broke down sud.
denly, the immediate cause probably being
over-fatigue and excitement at her reception
last night.
The President had issued invitations for a
dinner party on Monday, in honor OF Mr.. and
Mrs. Erastus Corning, of New York. They
were at once recalled.
The President intended going to Albaugh's
Opera House tonight, but will not ON account
of Miss Bayard's death.

WARNING THE CONSERVATIVES.
They Must Grapple With the Irish
Question or Get Out Of Office.

LONDON, Jan. 16.-The Times this morning
recognizes that the Irish question must re-
ceive the immediate attention of the new par
liment. In a spirited leading article il urges
the necessity of the conservative party at once
facing the issue. 1t says the conservatives cam
not shirk or postpone decisive action. III they
attempt to remain in office without making a
vigorous effort TO grapple with the Irish diff
Guilty it will result in their prompt and une-
QuiVocai condemnation. Universal scorn will
be their portion if they give their opponents a
chance to overthrow them without stalking
their existence on a bold defense of the union,
Such course would be worse than blunder-
Ii would be crime. The government should
not hesitate to challenge the verdict OF the
house of commons on the question of home
rule. 1t cannot be doubted that they would
obtain an immense majority in favor of MAIN
tanning the integrity of the empire.

Special Cable Dispatch TO THE EVENING STAR
LONDON, Jan. 16.-Amid the rumors with
which all England is agitated one thing alone
is certain-the leaders of neither side have made
up their minds what 10 do. Therefore the only
thing to be known is from a reasonable esti-
mate of the probabilities 1 have talked in the
last two days with politicians ofthe three camps.
/ believe the government will introduce a bin
TO stop boycottng; that is, they will renew some
clauses of the crimes act. This viii prove to be
the coercion which everybody is discussing.
Many things point to this conclusion. Lord
Randolph Churchill, 1 happen TO know. has
daily interviews with the youthful editor of the
Times. Churchill is thoroughly disguised with
the attitude of his colleagues and the bill they
propose to introduce. He followed Lord Carn-
arvon's home rule scheme till it was quite evil
dent the tory ministry could not be induced TO
support it. Then, as he has always done, viii
INSCRIPTIONS eagerness to get votes he swung
right round, and now demands vigorous policy
of repression. He has been heard to say, half
in earnest, half in jest, that If the Irishmen per-
sist I'm their present attitude and his colleagues
do nothing TO stop them he will go to Ulster
himself and raise an army of Orangemen. Now,
the Times has daily been urging the enforce
ment of the ordinary law" This indicates
clearly Churchills position and that the other
ministers feel the same. Finally, Lord Carnar-
von's resignation. the significance OF which is
not the least affected by the correspondence be-
tween him and Lord Salisbury, published to-
day, is a strong proof of the approaching change
| of policy. He has long been practically a home
ruler. He is a man OF great personal principle
For instance it is a fact OF modern political his
tory not generally known that the reason Lord
Carnarvon resigned from Beaconsfields cabi-
net in 1873 was that the latter had won Lord
Salisbury, then plenipotentiary at CONSTANT
nople, to agree. to his mad project TO land Eng
lish troops i'm Asia Minor to thwart Russia
His resignation to-day is doubtless due To a SIM
liar matter of principle. The strange rumors of
martial law, proclamation OF the land league, a
military viceroy, etc. doubtless rest some
pretty serious foundation. / hear, too, that the
government have land bin for Ireland, pre-
pared under the guidance of Mr.. Griffen, the
StatiStician to the board of trade, whose letter

THE COLORED EXODUS.
Over 5000 Have Already Left North
CarOiina-A Party Going TO CALIFORNIA;.

CHARLOTTE n. c., Jan. 16.-The exodus Of
colored laborers from North Carolina for points
west is beginning to excite some interest.
Charlotte is the railroad center for the state
and it is here the emigration parties are made
up and here the railroad agents meet and ar
range for their transportation. Not less
than three thousand have left the state, mostly
for Arkansas and Kansas. They continue to
emigrate westward, but there seems to be no
further demand for them in Kansas and they
are now going to California. Last night seventy
were turned over to Messrs Ed. +. Sisson, OF
the Santa Fee route, and A. A Gallagher, OF
the Missouri Pacific road, for transportation
to California. This batch of emigrants
are bound Tor Los Angeles, having contracted
to work in the vineyards and hop fields of T..
+. Bald win. who owns over two million acres
of land. According to agreement made with
Mr.. Baldwin, through his agents. before leaving
here, they are to get SD per month tor the first
year, with board and house free. Mr.. Baldwin
advanced money to pay their Transportation 10
Los Angeles, the price of each full ticket being
500. 20. The entire seventy people left here last
night on their journey to California.
