In this position he remained two years,
when he was offered the presidency OF
Alliance college, at Alliance, O., which
position he accepted. In removing to

Of the Disciple church.
With Alexander Campbell Mr.. Errett
founded Bethany college. He was also
for some time correspondent Of tho Gen.
eral Missionary society, Of which he was
one year president. In 1875 at the

spent five months travelling In Europe,
visiting Egypt and Palestine, countries

his return, however, he recommended

A Fight with an Eagle.

L. G. Brinkman, clerk in the supply
department Of the Burlington and Mis-
souri, in this city, while hunting shot
large eagle. The shot broke the birds
wing, but left it otherwise unharmed,
and when he went to capture his prize 1t
made spring at his face, and had he
not warded it off with his arm his eyes
would have been put out by the savage
bird. As it was it gripped his arm, and
despite his efforts to FREQ himself he
could not shake the eagle of. Calling
to his friends, a short distance away,
pried its claws out of the flesh of his fore
arm and leg, which were badly lacerated
He was helped home by his friends and
medical assistance summoned. His arm
was badly swollen. The eagle measured
eight feet from tip to tip.-Des Moines

Boracie Acid as q Pre.eryatIye.

Boracic acid only acts when present in
large quantity. 1t prevents the growth
and multiplication of germs, but does not
kill them even in a per cent. solution.
Experiments with milk gave very unsat-
isfactory results, as an addition OF 4 per
cent. boracic acid only preserved the
milk for four days. Horsenesh may be
preserved for six weeks by the use Of .
per cent. OF the acid. Boracic acid il
supposed TO be harmless, but recent in
vestigators. including the author, prove
1t TO be dangerous, as 1t strongly acts
upon the mucous membrane of the large
intestine. A dose of four grammes killad

The acid Is much used in Sweden for
preserving fish and milk, but cases Of
poisoning have already occurred in that
country. Long continued use Of the acid
Is not favorable to good health, and at
