The yellow FeYer PoriI.

Yellow fever is a distinct species Of
fever having a special cause peculiar
to itself Many very cogent consid-
erations render it probable that the
special causes of the different fevers
are living germs or entities, which
net by their presence in the blood
and by the changes in the condition
Of the blood which they cause. The
special cause Of yellow fever is thus
made Il special germ of the most
deadly character in its effect on the
blood This dread disease is peculiar
in the parts of theglObe to which it
specially belongs. There is a
yellow fever zone, as it is called,
which extends north of the equator
to forty degrees, but south to only
twenty degrees; and the disease pre-
walls less in our hemisphere than in
the Eastern, and less in Africa than
in certain parts of Europe and
America. In America it belongs es-
pecially on the Atlantic coast, in the
commercial centres south of Charles
ton, and on the coast Of the Gulf of
Mexico and In the West India Islands.
The cause of the disease is destroyed
by a temperature Of thirty-tWO de-
grees F., and it always seems to be
come all used out of the atmosphere
after about sixty days. AS
a rule, the disease is not dissemina-

from elsewhere. If the case is not

filth and foul air, favorable to
the causp the TraSpuca Of g. case
does not spread the disease. The
more mild form of the fever, or the
first stage in bad cases, is not very
serious. 1t is when q stage comes
IN which the failure of action Of the
organs which cleanse the blood
causes the skin to appear yellow,
and especially when the blood be
gins to break from it's vessels in the
stomach, and to cause a VOmit Of

worst. The blood is then charged
with foul matter which in health
would have been excreted from the

by no means impossible that future

Fast Locomotive Thinning.

The relative speed of trains here and
in Europe has been the subject off
good deal of discussion and contro-
versy recently. There appears to be
very little difference in the speed of
the fastest trains here and there; but
there are more of them there than we
have. From fOrty-eight to fifty-three
miles an hour, including stops, is
about the fastest time made by any
regular trains on the Summer time
tables.
When this rate ofspeed is com
pared with that of sixty or seventy
miles an hour, which is not infrequent
for short distances there seems to be
a great discrepancy. 1t must be kept
in mind, though, that these highrates
Of speed are attained under very fav-
OrabIe conditions. That is, the track
is straight and level, or perhaps de-
scending and unobstructed. In or
binary traffic it is never. certain that
the line is clear. A locomotive rum
ner must always be on the lookout
for DISTINCTIONS Trains. ordinary
vehicles, a fallen tree or rock, cows
and people may be In the way at any
moment. Let any one imagine him
self in responsible charge of a loco
motive and hewilI readily understand
that with the slightest suspicion that
the line is not clear, he would slacken
the speed as precautionary measure.
For this reason fast time on a rail-
road depends as much on having a
good signal system to assure the To-
connective runners that the line is
clear, as it does on the locomotives.
If he is always liable to encounter,
and must be on the lookout for OBJ
structiOns at frequent grade crossings
OF common roads, or if he is not Ger
tain whether the train Ia front Of him
is out OF his way or not, the lOcOmO-
tive runner viii be nervous and be
almost sure to lose time If the speed
is to be increased on American rail
roads, the first stops should be to
carry all streets and common roads
either over or under the lines, have
the lines well fenced, provide abund-
ant side-tracks for trains, and adopt
efficient systems of signals so that
locomotive runners can know Wheth-
er the line Is clear or not--Scribner'
Magazine.

than half keep on. SlSien shoots

breaks the leg of a third. Svantsen
gives the horses their heads and
strikes at the long gray brutes now
streaming on either side. Here comes
the dogs at last, fresh and full OF
fighting. Twenty there are, If not
more, all eager for a tussle with the
universal enemy. They rush into the
wolves, and at the same moment one
OF the horses comes down with a
crash, struggles upon his knees, falls
again, shrieks, tries in vain to rise,
and rolls over beaten upon his side.
The other, breaking his trace and
lashlng out. comes near Draining the
driver, but instead catches a wolf
which has Just jumped at Svantsen
fair IN the chest, and hurls him back
3 yards. SlIien has wound his coat
round his left arm and uses his knife
with his right The freed horse. with
a dozen wolves leaping at its head,
runs straight into theFescuingp party.
Then torches CLEAN and men yell
and fight hand-tO-hand battles with
gaunt, draggled brutes that snap at
their thrOats, fill the air with the
strong vulpine smell Of their kind,
and when blow gets home howl and
kick out their lives IN the reddening
snow.
1t was a notable and terrible battle
while 1t lasted. and forms topic for
conversation to this day in JOksdal.
Half the dogs were killed, and more
than one brave man who rushed to
the rescue will carry deep tokens of
the light to his grave. Svantsen came
worst off. His left arm was badly
torn, and one bite in his throat must
have been fatal had the brute who
made it jumped a little stronger.
SlIlen fought like q demon and escap-
ed marvelOusly, with scarce more
than an ugly scratch or two. One
horse died where it fell. the other es-
capped with its life, but was ruined for
all practical purposes. SVantsen' s
wife, however, looked to it that the
excellent beast should live the re-
mainder Of bis days in hOnOred idle
ness.
And the wolves, though decisively
beaten, cannot be deemed disgraced.
Upon the field they left four-and-
twenty slain and some eight or nine
wounded to the death. Deeply de-
jected, torn, MANNED, and exhausted,
hesurviYOrs got them back to their
desOlate forest homes; and maybe
the God that sees fit to let them live,
added an adequate meal before the
moon had set.
For, mark you, those wolves, with
out exactly approaching the fact,
had achieved a great and splendid
work. They had, brought to the sur
face much that is noble in human
hearts; they had in two short minutes
done that which years Of time might
not have done; they had destroyed a
bitter feud and build upon it's ruins 81
friendship which will stand while the
friends have life.-EDEN PHILLPOTs,

song OF DREAMS.

A dream Of a merry child at play,
Blue eyed and fair, frOlicsOme, gay,
Glad as the birds in the springtime are,
Sorrows ufOat like clouds afar.
Careless of trouble, untouched by fear,
Singing her way through the golden year
A dream of a woman, old and gray,
Wrinkicd and bent, vending her way
Lo9esOmely toward the last milestone,
Where the grim, dark shadow Of death Is
thrown,
Storm stained and weary, and worn with
care
The candle Of life at its final flare.
A dream of a grave in n churchyard lone,
Neglected, drear with weeds o 'ergroWn,
With only the chirp of the cricket's song.
AS it sings in the grass the whole night long,
To break the silence that brOOds so deep
Where the wornout soul and body sleep.
