We offer no apology for devoting so much time
and attention to this much neglected class of
diseases, believing that no condition of human
ity is too wretched to merit the ympathy and
best services of the profession to which we be
long, as many are innocent sufferers, and that
the physician who devotes himself
to relieving the afflicted and saving
them from worse than death, is no less a
philanthrophist and n benefactor to his race
than the surgeon or physician who by close APP
plication eNcels IN any other branch of his pro-
fession. And, fortunately for humanity the day
is dawning when the false philanthropy that
condemned the victims of folly or crime like
the lepers under the Jewish law to die uncared
for, has passed away.

A village newspaper, giving an ac-
count of q lecture by a noted lecturer,
said briefly and indefinitely that it was
"a wonderful flow of language"-which
seems to have beer the idea of the hearers
of a certain colored minister, mentioned
by an exchange, whose gifts were rather
superficial.
The length of the words he hurled at
mis- hearers was only limited by the
amount of oxygen he could take into hio
lungs at one effort. This was all very
well for a time, but the church did not
seem to prosper, and by and by a change
was decided upon and a committee Of
n was appointed to ask for the wordy
minister's resignation.
When the errand had been stated, the
preacher indignantly asked what the
congregation expected for nothing.

The Tyranny of "TIps."

Fifteen years ago the clipping Of
walters i'll hotels and restaurants was as
a constant and practically inevitable re-
quirement almost unknown here. The
system came into vogue as a somewhat
natural result of the large influx of for
eign walters and of the acquisition of
European ideas through the vast and still
increasing tide of summer travel. With
true American ~impetuoslty and energy
we have carried on the practice of "tip-
ping till it has now become a nuisance
Of extremely exacting and annoying pro-
portions. 1t is impossible to take a meal
In a restaurant, to stay in a hotel or to
enjoy the somewhat questionable luxury
of a berth in a sleeping car without, in
addition to paying the large profits of the
proprietors of these institutions, giving
also a very considerable percentage in
the shape of ''tips." The system is so
thoroughly organized that 1t is impossible
for the man who desires any comfort to
avoid paying this customary blackmail.
Without it, he n even get the food
or the attention which is purported to be
offered at a high price. Any regular
traveller will say that it is hopeless to try
to obtain more than one good or well
served meal in a hotel unless the waiter
10 remembered. The same experience
will be encountered in any of the better
class restaurants. Julian Magnus in The
Epoch.

We went to the kitchen, where the
dinner was being got ready. The smell
of the soup was fragrant and appetizing.
Great bowls of boiled buckwheat stood
ready to be served, and the reservoir of
soup was piping hot. l tasted both.
Buckwheat is an acquired taste, but the
soup was capital. 1t is served out in
wooden bowls, each containing a portion
for five, who sit round the bowl with
wooden spoons, helping themselves. In
the bakery we found the great loaves of
rye bread all hot from the oven. In APP
pcarance rye bread is like a dull ginger
bread, but in taste it has an acidity not
pleasing to the unaccustomed palate. The
Russians all eat itwhen at large, and the
prison bread is quite as good as hat you
get in private houses. l asked about the
dietary scale. l was assured by Mr..
Saloman and the governor that no
restriction is placed upon the amount
of food prisoners may consume.
They had as much bread as they
cared to eat at breakfast, at dinner,
and at supper. As a rule, the daily con-
sumption of bread did not exceed two
pounds per man. There was no skilly.
Quass, a kind of thin beer, was supplied
them, and this again without limit as to
quantity. OF the soup each man could
ave as much as he pleased; also buck
wheat.
The only article which was weighed
out vas meat. Every man received a
quarter of a pound of meat a day. They
do not weigh their prisoners in Russia on
entering and leaving the jail. That is a
practice which they might introduce with
advantage. There is no argument so
crushing to the assailants of the cruelty
of prison treatment as the evidence of
avoirdupois-the statistics of the increase
of weight which has accompanied the
alleged privatiop and torture. And as
they do not weigh their prisoners neither
do they photograph them; neither do
they take impressions of their thumbs,
as is done in some French prisons. In
this direction something remains to be
done.-Pall Mall Gazette.

CHICAGO, July 20.-Inspector Bonfeld
has in his Possession copies of a secret
circulars differing but little from the fam
Gus revenge" circular which called the
Haymarket meeting together two years
ago. The paper, which is termed The
Reuenge, calls for active steps on the part
of old time anarchists to avenge the exc
cution of Spies, Parsons. Lingg, Engel
and Fisher. 1t is believed that the dis.
covery ofthis sheet will lead to the arrest
of prominent anarchists not only in Chi
cago but all over the country.
Inspector Bonfield said this afternoon
that the paper has been started for the
purpose OF working up the passions OF
anarchists to such d polntI that they will
not stop at anything to aveng what is
termed the ''bloodthirsty murder of the
martyrs" Certain articles are printed
in three languages and it is urged that all
true anarchists should take vigorous steps
to intimidate the opponents of monopoly
and thus prevent similar murder"

suddenly expired at his home at Cornwall
on the Hudson last evening at 10 o'clock

aloud some selections from Hawthorne.
After reading about an hour he suddenly
ceased and lay down the book with the
remark, THAT pain again. | shall have

bedroom the most intense paroxysms OF
pain occurred at short intervals for up

The average boy has an idea that cas-
tor oil was got up for the torture Of all
kids WHO have careful mothers to protect
them from the fell destroyer. He is
mistaken, like a majority of grown peo-
pie, who only regard castor oil as a med
icinc. Only n very small proportion of
it is consumed in that manner. Castor
oil forms one of the best lubricators, and
is used for greasing wagons and other
purposes where the price does not pro-
'hibit it. Then it is burned as an illumi-
nator. not only by the Jews for their
Sabbath lamp, but elsewhere. In India,
where large quantities of the seed are
raised, the oil is added to the native con-
diments to flavor them. 1t is also made
into an illuminating gas in India. In
this country castor oil is used to dress
morocco leather. California, Kansas,
Iowa and Illinois are the principal sec
tions of this country where the seed is
raised, and the castor oil presses at Bel
vile, Ills, are among the most extensive
in che world.-New York Graphic.

SEVEN VICTIMS.
Explosion on Board the Tug

Fearful Deaths of Seven of

by the Senate
Yesterday.
A Tug Boat Blown Up.

LOUISVILLE, July 2O.-Tug boat Con-
voy blew up twenty-six miles above here
this morning and seven men were killed.
The explosion of the steam pipe that sup
piled the engine from the. boiler, caused
the catastrophe. Most of the men were
asleep at the time. The victims we're,
VIM. Page, VIM. Harrington, Robert
Jones, VIM. Bigley, Charles Luster,
George McCann and Wm.pkelly All
belong in Pittsburg or near by Pennsylva-
MIA. cities.
When the boat reached Westport every
thing, according to the first mates story,
was running smoothly. When they were
two miles above Westpoft suddenly there
was an explosion, the boat becoming en-
veloped in steam, and the machinery
stopped. Capt. Richardson hurriedly
dressed, called the survivors about him
and made preparations to land. After
the boat had been towed ashore the cap
tain proceeded to TIE after cabin where
the explosion occurred. Page laid near
the door, blood rushing from his mouth
and ears, and his flesh
sCALDED OFF HIS BODY.
Mccain and Harrington were in their

Ueeu INSTANTANEOUS, lOr they lay IN the
same position as when they retired. Jones
was on the floor and barely alive. He
was horribly burned and lived but fifteen
minutes, dying with his wife's name on
his lips. Bigely was also still alive when
found, but died in ten minutes. Luster
was discovered outside of the cabin lying
on his face. He was not dead and told
them that he had run out there as soon
as he could recover from the shock of the
explosion. He was almost baked and his
skin was parched and
LITTLE JETS OF BLooD
stood out from the pores of this body. In
two hours he was dead. Kelly was pulled
out from under his bunk and was alive,
but he was horribly burned. Charles
Chambers, the only other man who slept
in the cabin, was blown out of the door
and had a miraculous escape. He was un-
scathed, as were also Mate Kerins, Pilot
Reno and Engineer Carr, All the
OTHERS ABoARD Persisted.
The officers of the boat can give
no explanation of the accident and claim
that the machinery was inspected last
February and was hen in excellent condi-
ton.

A Japanese Comic Artist.

Coming to modern times a brief
glance on the wag of the distant land
is in pleasant order. About 1870 years
ago the most famous artist Japan has
ever known was born. His name
was Hokusai, and of the weird, peculiar
work of the artists of that wonderful
country his is said by his countrymen to
have excelled all others. All other
artists confined themselves almost ex-
Clusively TO lords and ladies of the court,
rich dresses and gorgeous silk costumes,
with vases and p~alanquins.
But Hokusai made a new departure.
lie gave himself up to humor. He
opened a studio in Yeddo in 1910, and
labored steadily until 1849. He has left
many books Of sketches, and the results
of numerous trips are left in illustrated
albums. His favorite study was the
horse. One of his drawings represented
a horse with his hind legs wildly waving
in the air, while a young woma stands
on a l%ariat, which had been trailing be-
hind him as he ran.
The scene is supposed to be laid in
Kaipzu, a little village ON Lake Biwa.
The young woman, named Kaneko, is
noted for her strength. In stopping the
runaway she simply stepped on the lariat,
and the horses further fighNwas at once
checked. Hokusai is dead, but his pic
lures are held among his countrymen as
examples Of perfection in art.-The

graph. that necessary steps would be taken

Figures Concerning vaccination.

We are at last getting some very accu-
rate comparative statistics concerning
vaccination. In Canton Zurich, Switzer-
land, there was compulsory vaccination
up to 1888. In that year not one death
occurred from smallpox. The anti-vac-
cinationists then secured n repeal of the
requirement. The next year, 1888, there
were two deaths per thousand from
smallpox; in 1884 three deaths u of
every thousandI in 1885 seventeen, and
in 1886 eighty-fve, This is a warning
that should be studied, especially by our
Canadian neighbors. But when preju-
dice has to be overcome, even statistics
are %valueless. Law must be applied to
save many people from their own self
will. They might be left to consequences,
only for the spread of contagion to others.
