For Bed Ridden Patients.

Ie order to prevent the chatting of those
portions Of the body on which bedridden
patients rest and thus to prevent bed sores
various methods have been devised. The
air bed and the water bed are well adapted
TO this purpose but are expensive and not
always to be obtained. Dr. Smith, of
Indianapolis, recommends the employ
ment of rubber tubing of about three
quarters of an inch in diameter. This
can be coiled into any desirable size, and
if soiled can readily be cleaned. Should
the parts be iuIlamed cold water could be
passed through the tube and thus the heat
be reduced. As rubber tubing is cheap
and easily procurablc the suggestion is
an admirable One.-New Orleans Times

Another great navigable tributary of
the Congo river has been discovered at a
point between the Obange and the Lin
coma on the right bank. 1t is called the
Sekoli. The discoverers were six weeks
in making the voyage down the stream.
The country through which it passes
aboundS in wild oxen. antelopes, ele-
plants and hippopotami. The river is
between 1900 and 900 feet broad and
has many islands. In the lower portion
Of hts course it flows through immense
grass plains, which feed vast numbers of
wild cattle, antelopes and elephants. But
the navigation is impeded by the hippo
potami. The human population is very
thin.-Sew Orleans Times Democrat.

At recent meeting of the Anatomical
and Pathological society of Brussels, M.
Destres called the attention Of the members
to the fact that cases Of Group had been
greatly and steadily on the increase in
Brussels, so that Group and diphtheria were
now endemic there; and he ventured to sug-
gest that there might be some connection be-
tween the keeping Of pigeons and the occur
renee OF these diseases. He pointed out that
Emmeriels, Of Munich, had found the
microbe of diphtheria IN these birds, and he
himself had met with three cases Of Group
in families where pigeons were kept, In all of
which cases signs of the disease had appeared
in the pigeons. NJ Destree hoped that men,
bers would bear this matter in mind, in or
der that it might be further elucidatsd. -

Albert c. Crocker, superintendent Of
wells for the CHARTERS gas company, was
inspecting well five miles from Hickory,
Pa, the other evening, when there was an
explosion of gas, and his left foot was
blown off just above the ankle. 1t was
pitch dark, and no lanterns are used about
the well, so that Crocker could not see how
badly he was hurt. He found that he could
not walk. but had no idea that his foot WAS
Of. He was assisted into a buggy and
driven over the rough roads to Hickory,
when it was seen that his foot was gone.

THE LOVE OF kANGAROOS.

A melancholy Female and - Anxious
Mste--A Family Meeting.
When the congress of kansaroos at ths
museum were recently shipped from Aus
traIia to this city by way of Liverpool
they were separated in the latter city, part
Of them being placed on tho Assyrisp Mon
arch and tho rest on the Persian Monarch,
there not being enough room on either ship
for the fifteen cages. Flora. female
kangaroo, manifested great reluctancs uhee
separated from her mate, who was put on
board the other steamer, and she became
very melancholy and dumpish, refusing to
cat or drink and rejecting the csresssss Of
her keeper, to which she had beea daily
accustomed
At first the keeper thought mis- pet va
sick and administered such medicine a. hs
thought would benefit her, but all to no
purpose, the saHe reStlessnesss was apparent,
and she called repeatedly and seemed TO
strain her ears for a reply. During the
voyage she gave birth TO two bright
kangaroo babies that nestled in the mothers
pouch, peeping out now and then and hid
ing on the approach of any Of the passen-
gers. Meanwhile Jack" tho mats Of
Flora" looked snxiously out the bars OF
his cage for his mate, and called, but no
answer came. The ship bearing Flora"
was first TO arrive, and the batch of kan
garoos on board were at once sent TO this
city. The other load of kangaroos arrived in
New York and were shipped here at once
y At the museum Flora" eyinced great
uneasiness She seemed to sosns the COM
ing of her mats, and when ths cazs oon-
tanning him WAS carried into tbs museum
he heard "Flors's" voice, and answered
'Flora'sn joy know no bounds and sAs
leaped about her cage in the widest excite
ment, ever and anon stopping to gaze out
from behind the bars to see il Jack" bad
come. Tho keeper, To prevent Flora"
from injuring herself against tho sides Of
her cage, was Obliged to bring her rnste up-
stairs and put him in her cage. Never
was a more impressive scene enacted b.
tween animals. They embraced, licked
each other with their tongues and rubbsd
their noses in expressions OF affection, for
getting all about the kangaroo babies.
Finally, the father saw them and teldsrly
licked their faces, while the little things
hopped from their mothers pouch to extend
to him q friendly greeting ''Jact, "
Flora" and the two babies are the happiest
animals in the congress, and the keeper
VOWS that hs will never separate them again.

the reduction of thirty-siN cents per dozen.

LOVE IN THE WORLD.

The olives where We walk to-day,
In the olive groves, are white and gray,
And underneath the shimmering trees
One almond boush is family pink,
And lilac blow the anemonesL
IN all the flowers, in all the leaves,
A fair and silent magic heaves;
A hint Of some remembered bliss,
A rapture Just beyond the brink
OF feeliPI, which we still must miss.

Our pi sntoms still shall wander here,
And lres,hs in this elysian wood

TERRIBLE DISASTER AT A FIRE IN
MASSACHUSETTS.

The Walls of Burning Mill Give Wayp
Carrying Ten Firemen to a Horrible
Fate-Au of Them Killed, and Buried
in the Debris.
CHICAGO, April IL. Tho following dis
patch has been received here:
LAwRENCI, Mass, April l0-During
fire at the Pemberton mill this afternoon
the rear walls of the building fell, hurying
ten firemen All were killed.
The mill caught fire at about II O'Clock
this morning. A number of tiremen sta
toned themselves on the roof of portion
of the mill ad dining that which was burn
ing Their weight was too great for tho
strength of the roof and the roof gave way.
The firemen went down with it. The
fire broke out in the picker-room, AT 11:4O
general alarm was rung in, summoning
the whole department.. All the operatives
were sent out. The structure in which the
fire started WIS on the river bank, in the
rear of the main building, and was three
stories high and 100 feet long.
The main mill itself is seven stories high
The looms and machinery were all in the
south end of the mill. The mill next the
river was much damaged during the early
part of the fire. Ten persons were buried
when the walls fell in, including four fire
men. In addition to these w. II. Donovan,
jeremiah Sullivan, j. II. kimball, and
Engin ,er Samuel Atkinson were badly in
jured in the falling walls.
At 80 o'clock the ;ir2 began to succumb
to the efforts of the firemen, ana it is proba-
BILE that the main mill will be saved.
Search is now being made for the men who
were buried in the ruins. Saould the fire
spread to the next bu ldiug it will be i'm
possible to prevent the loss OF millions of
dollars, as long row of wooden building is
contiguous

How He Caught Beavers.

Some time since u farmer residing in
the Chehalem section found pond
made by beavers away up on the head
waters of little stream on plateau of
the mountains He determined to cut
away the beavers dam, drain the pond,
and catch the beavers, A veteran fish
erman from this city was invited to par
ticipate in the expected fun. The stream
from the pond was small, and fell dis
tance of fifty feet over q series of cas-
cades, so it was not supposed that any
trout could have ever reached the pond.
The dam was cut, and as the water ran
out and down the steep mountain side
X was seen that there were plenty of
trout going down with it. A sort OF u
screen was made Of twig5 and placed in
the gap for the water to ran through,
and in n short time l50 fine trout were
captured When the pond was drained
the subterranean entrance to the beav-
ers nest was found. Then mattock and
shovel were brought into play, and an
attempt was made to follow the tunnel
made by the beavers into the sidehill
till they should be found. After pro-
cceding some distance beaver made Il
desperate effort to escape between the
feet Of the men who was digging, but
kick or two sent it back into its den.
There appearing no prospect of reach
inc the end Of the tunnel it was deter
mined to set trap in ii to catch the
beaver as he came out, md the digging
party adjourned. On going after the
beaver in the morning it was found that

France, Germany and Italy," says Sec
tagy Bayarl, are paying bounties in var
ious forms with a view to stimulating the
construction OF vessels, to encouraging
their navigation and to placing their ship
ping in more favorable position for sscur-
ing larger share i'll the carrying trade of
the world than they would under natural
conditions and with free competition OBJ
tain
Secretary Bayard thinks that whore so
many nations grant bounties and subsidies,
no advantage is gained; that whatever
advantage France has secured in the last
few years viii in a measure DO neutralized
by the bounty policy of Germany and
Italy. He thinks the carrying capacity is
in excess of the worlds needs
ITO a nation possessed of large CONNER
cial interests" says the secretary in closing
his letter accompanying the report "the
bounties of other nations may give an adj
vantage in the form Of cheaper rates of
freight, the result OF increased competition; :;
it may be doubted whether it will be prolific
to sacrifice this advantage and impose an
additional burden upon productive industry
by the adoption of O system of bounties."
