A Grated Eye.

The man who had rabbits eye put in
his head by DR.. ]. J. Chisolm at the
Presbyterian Eye, Ear and Throat Hos.
pital, East Baltimore street, on Wednes'
day, is doing we'll. In about week be
will be able to remove the bandage;
possibly DR.. Chisolm may do 80 by
Tuesday. Then he will have to remain
at the hospital week or ten days longer,
to get his eyes used to the light gradually.
He was blind in both eyes. Only the
left eye has been operated on. If the
operation succeeds, DR.. Ohisolm may
insert another rabbits eye in the right
one. The man expresses perfect faith IN
the skill of DR.. Chisolm. He said
Yesterday: eyes, it will be miracle to
give me sight; but DR.. Chisolm expects
to do it, through the aid of Christ aud
his Instruments" He ia colored man,
and a good, healthy subject. Three years
ago, the 18th of this month, his eyes were
put out while white washing q ware
house on Commerce street, by the
bucket of whitewash falling and the lime
splashing into his eyes. He says he has
been a great sufferer during the past
three years. His eyes we're made raw and
sore by the lime, and the lids closed
together. Several doctors attended him,
and he suffered very much from several
operations for opening his eyes by cutting
the lids apart. Finally, he was recon-.
mended to try DR.. Chisolm. He had
afforded him much relief, aud, nally
decided to put in the rabbits eye. He
says the operation of transferring the
animals eye was not at all painful, as he
was under the influence ofcocoaine. He
seemed to be in good humor yesterday.
It is expected that the cornea of the
rabbits eye will knit in the socket made
by the instrument. DR.. Chisolm asked
his patient how the eye felt. He replied:
"It doesn't hurt at all it only itches
little" "It is getting along nicely.
}hink it will be very successful opera
ton" said DIR. Chisolm. The instrument
used is marvellous one, and is regulated
by clockwork. DIR. Ohisolm was present
when the successful operation some
mouths ago in Philadelphia mas accom-.
plished. a rabbits eye was chosen for
the purpose because its cornea more
nearly resembles that of human eye
than that of any other animal. The
nerves of sight In the mans eye are not
destroyed; hence, it is possible to give
sight by the operation.-Baltimorc

The Presidential Succession.

It now looks as if Judge Thurman will
be the next President Of the United
States. He will be rs years old when he
enters the Office and so if he lives to the
end of his term.
He will be the first Vice President
elected under the Presidential succession
law passed by Congress two years ago.
By that law the succession is better
provided for than ever before. The
preceding statute dated back to 1892.
It provides that in case of the death of
both President and Vice. President, the
President of the Senate, or if there should
be nona, the Speaker of the House,
should act as President. 1t further
requires special election to be held in
such emergency for the choice Of another
President and Vice President.
ed 10 the evils of a special election. The
Administration might pass from one
political party to another against the
will of the people; for example, a
Democratic President might die, and q
Republican President OF the Senate or
Speaker of the House become President.
But the most serious defect in it was
that it might leave the country without
a designated successor to the Presidency.
This occurred when President Garfield
died and again when Vice President
Hendricks died.
These evils are net possible under the
present system. The succession is now,
in case of the removal, death, resignation
or inability of both the President and
Vice President, vested in the members Of
the Cabinet in the following order !:
Secretary of State, secretary of the
treasury, secretary of war, attorney gen
eral, postmaster general, secretary OF the
navy, secretary Of the interior. In case
the duties of the Office devolve upon any
member of the Cabinet he is TO act as
President untilth disability is removed
or a pew President is regularly elected.
There is to be no special election. a
foreign born secretary is barred from the
succession, which, in such event would
pass to the next in line. By this law the
country is amply guarded against grave
emergencies which we're more than once
threatened before its enactment.

WE have been handling this valuable
w preparation for several years with
great success, and have no hesitation in re-
commencing it to our friends. Some few
have not been successful with it, but we
are confident it is because they failed in
some respect to follow directions. IT di-
rections are properly followed there is no
doubt of its efficacy. We have many re-
Communications and certificates from our
people here in the County, but for the
present will mention only few. DR.. r. A.
Reid, of the well-known and reliable
Drug firm of Simpson, Reid & Co., says:

MEssRs. HILL BRos-DEAR SIRs: Al
though We used your Preserving Fluid
with misgivings, We have no hesitancy
now in saying the fruit and vegetables have
kept perfectly, and without any unpleas-
ant fayor. The great advantage over the
ordinary method of canning is, that the
Fluid is more reliable keeps larger pack

"A plant grows in Mixteca, Mexico,

loses his will, and is completely under

he has done.

ex.Vice President Wheeler during his
last illness, has presented bill "as is 3
bill" to the estate. 1t amounts to about
$14,800. The items are in part as
follows: For attendance from April l.,
1885, to December 81, 1885, at $15 per
day for attendance from January l.,
1886, to December 81, 1886, at 500 per
day; for attendance from January l.,
1887, to June 4, 1887, at $25 per day /;
for keeping horse two years, $3.50 per
week, for use of carriage two years,
5000. Mr.. Wheelers executor refused to
pay the bill and the matter will go to the
courts.

- In Chicago, on Friday last, while
Mr.. Murray, young and fashlonably
dressed man, was leaning upon the show
case of q cigar store in Adams Express
building intently engaged in writing q
note, he was approached from behind by
Mr.. Jas. Bell, who quickly cut off large
portion of one of his ears. Mr.. Bell, it
seems, retired in good order with the
piece of ear in his grasp, while Mr.. Muir
ray, the victim, quickly thrust the note
that he had been writing into his
pocket, and also departed. Subsequently
several messengers We're dispatched to
Mr.. Bell by Murray's physician, with the
request for the immediate return of the
segment of ear belonging to bis patient
in order that it might be replaced and
induced to reunite itself with the dis6g-
ured member. Mr.. Bell, however, was
obdurate, and instead of sccediDg to the
request cut the ear up into email bits and
threw the pieces away. The charge
against Murray is that he had paid i'm.
proper addresses to Mrs. Bell. Murray's
friends are unanimous in defending his
character, and condemn Bells action.

We fear they are doing more in this

are things our people should think about.

Death by the Spark.

ALBANY, N. Y, June 4.-Governol
Hill to-day signed the bill abolishing
hanging for all murders committed after
January /, 1889, and substituting death
BY electricity therefor.
The bill consists of elaborate and care.
fully drawn amendments to the Code Of
Criminal Procedure, providing that the
prisoner sentenced to death shall be i'm.
mediately conveyed by the Sheriff to one
Of the State prisons, and there kept in
solitary confinement until the day Of
execution, to be visited only by officers
;or by his relatives, physician, clergyman
or counsel. The court imposing sentence
shall name merely the week within which
the execution is to take place, the partic.
ular day within such week being left to
the discretion of the principal officer oi
the prison. The execution is required
to be practically private, only officials,
cleYgymen, physicians and limited
number Of citizens being allowed to be
present. After the execution funeral
services may be held within the prison
walls and the body shall be delivered into
the custody of relatives If requested,
otherwise it shall be decently inferred
within the prison ground.
This bill is the outcome Of q recon-.
mendation contained in the first annual
message of Governor Hill to the Legisla.
ture in 1885, being as follows:
The present mode of executing crimi.
mails BY hanging has come down to Us
from the Dark Ages, and 1t may we'll be
questioned whether the science of the
present day can not provide means for
taking the life of such as are condemned
to die in less barbarous manner. /
commend this suggestion to the consid.
Grafton of the Legislature"
The attention Of scientific men vas at.
tracted 70 the subject by this message,
and in 1886 the Gerry Commission was
appointed by the Legislature to investi.
gate and report the most humane and
practical method of carrying into effect
the sentence of death in capital cases.
This bill is substantially 10 accordance
with the recommendation of such COM
mission to the Legislature of the present
year. The new Law does not take effect
until January l, 1889, and applies only
to crimes committed on or after that
date.
