Extensive Damage Done by Terrific
storm in the Northern Peninsula-


Reports from thirteen places in the
Michigan peninsula show that the storm
on the 9Th was general in scope and un-
precedented in the amount of rainfall.
The storm broke like the bursting of
waterspout and continued for two hours
in torrents, accompanied by heavy
lightning. All the country from
the Wisconsin line to the up
per range and the whole width
Of the peninsula suffered. At and
for fifty miles from Houghton the
work of the deluge was most damaging.
Baraga. Houghton, Calumet, Lake Lin
den, Escanaba, HAnse, Iron Mountain
Norway, Ishpeming, Marquette and as
fas east as Senly the storm was ter ible.
No approximation of damage l. yet
possible. Houses were undermined
and in some cases swept away, culyerts
and bridges were destroyed and miles
OF fences and sidewalks were swept
away Although several railroad cul-
verts were destroyed no accidents oc-
Cured, but travel is generally delayed
on all the Peninsula roads.

What Caused Gen. Sheridan's
Death,

DIR. William Pepper. ofPhiladelphia,
says: "At the time Of the early at
tacks the heart failure was so intense
that the walls Of Che heart contracted
very imperfectly and the cavities
became rapidly and greatly dilated.
This was so much increased by the
mechanical obstruction due to the
organic disease Of the valves OF the
heart, which had existed Tor many
months. In this state some heart
clot must have formed, and Tor some
time very alarming attacks required
unexpectedly, apparently due to the
sudden detachment Of portions ofclot
which were carried from the right side
OF the heart into the lungs. Themost
alarming spell was connected with the
development of an extensive infrac.
ton OF the lower lobe OF the right,
followed by the development OF an.
eurisms around it. For weeks this
was g constant source of anxiety, but
gradually it cleared away, the heart
gained power, its cavities contracted
better and the spells above mentioned
grew less frequent and less serious.
when the heart trouble was at it's
worst, grave symptoms OF congestion
showed themselves everywhere. The
brain suffered, the liver and stomach
were so much engorged that hemor.
rhages occurred and were almost fa-
tai. From the shock the kidneys also
suffered, as was shown by q scanty
albuminous urine and swelling OF the
feet. But as the heart steadily inn
proved all these complication subsid-
ed. This was very gratifying and
justified the hope that graduallythere
would be a return to better health If
no untoward complications should
occur again. But inevitably q patient
with extensive organic diseases of the
heart fas in all probability existed
here), with fragments Of heart clot
edheIing TO the lining, is continually
in danger at fatal heart failure and of
sudden detachment Of fragments of
such size that if carried to the lungs
almost Immediately fatal results viii
follow. On Sunday evening, at a
time when all the generals symptoms
were more encouraging than at any
previous period, the above occur red
with such severity as to make all
Efforts to sustain the heart and lungs
u~navailing."

There is hardly anything better for
the cracked and sore teats efcows
than rich, old, boiled lmseed oil. 1t
softens them and enters every crack,
and then dries, forming a skin which
keeps the sore free from dirt and the
air and allows it 30 heal rapidly.

Adulterated Lard in EngIand

1T appears that English authorities
are somewhat more alert at detect
ing adulterated household commodi-
ties than are those in the United
States whose duty 1t is to protect the
health OF the people by exposing and
Furnishing those guilty of adulterating
articles OF family consumption. Re
Gently several provision merchants In
Liverpool have been prosecuted for
selling refined lard" which on anal
ysis was found to be adulterated to
the extent of about 40 per cent. with
cotton seed oil and beef or mutton lat:
For the defense it was admitted
that the analysis was accurate, but it
was contended that s'refined lard
was perfectly we'll known N the trade
to mean a compound Of fats, and in
no way was it Injurious to health.
The beef and mutton stearine was
added to give the lard more consist
sseg. and enable it to stand carriage
better, and a section Of the sale Of
food and drugs act, under which the
prosecution was instituted, was re-
Ierred to for the purpose OF showing
the treatment of the lard with this
object was not an offense. g'hemapis-
trate said he must use his common
sense, and held the adulteratioEi
proved. Fines Of Is and costs were
imposed in each case, but leave was
given TO appeal.
These arethe first prosecutions Of
the kind III England. and, therefore,
attracted considerable attention. The
lard bore the labels OF Armour y Co.,
and N. X. Fairbank q Co., Chicago.
