ABOUT FELLOW FEVER.
THE THEORY OF DIR. FRANK S. BILL
INas, OF LINCOLN, NEB,
What He Has to Say About the Dis
covery of DR.. Reeves. OF Chat
tanooga, and That of DR.. Sternberg,
u. 8. A.

A reporter Of the Lincoln, Nebraska,
Stale Journal interviewed DIR. Frank S.
Billings few days ago, who began by
asking the noted microscopic:
"What do you think of the claims OF
DIR. Reeves, OF Chattanooga, Tenn, OF the
discovery OF the germs OF yellow fever2"
81 have been very much interested in
it," replied the doctor, 'and after much
trouble have come in possession OF one OF
the original slides OF DIR. Reeves" "Well,
what do you find in it?' 81 find the same
same germ which | found in the ma
terial sent me by DR.. Sternberg, which |
described in my report on Southern cattle
plague and Texas fever last spring"
"Was this discovery original with your"
mo. This germ was first described by
Babes, quite anoted Hungarian patho.bac
teriologist, who described il in his work
on bacteria, published in connection with
Cornil OF France in 1885. Babes found it
in material sent him from Brazil by La.
cerda. Through the kindness Of Surgeon
General Hamilton, Superintendent OF the
United States quarantine marine hospital
service, and by special instructions to his
agent, DIR. Burgess in Havana, Cuba,
have recently come into possession of
specimens Of the organs from six different
individuals who died OF yellow fever mt
Havana. This material was collected with
the greatest care. The autopsies having
been made within thirty minutes after
death in all except one case. 1t will thus
be seen that this organism has been the
one continually found by the majority OF
investigators, and there is scarcely any
doubt but what IL is the one causing yell
low fever. THIS being so, and the organ
ism belonging TO the same group as Texas
fever and hog cholera, the general phe-
nomena and descriptions which have
been gwen OF tine developments OF those
two germs will undoubtedly be applicable
20 this From q strict archaeological
sense before we could absolutely say that
this germ was the specified and only cause
OF yellow fever II should be obtained in a
vital form from sick or dead persons and
cultivated artifcially and then the same
disease induced by artificial incubation.
This at once brings us 10 an almost insur-
mountabe difficulty in investigating the
diseases of the human species, as unless
one inoculates himself II is self evident
that il will be difficult TO find anyone who
will give himself rs sacrifice for the
benefit OF science and humanity. Hence
it is very evident that the scientific
evidence with regard 10 such diseases
mus, be largely OF cumulative character
in comparison with that exact evidence OF
experimentation which it is easy TO obtain
in the study Of animal diseases from the
fact that we can always have a our dis
posa the animal in which the disease oc.
curs for experimentation. The cumulative
evidence, however. OF the correctness OF
my asscr ions in tho Texas fever report
with regard TO the germ Of yellow fever is
becoming so strong that there is not
much more room TO doubt It's correct
ness

LINCOLN, Ncb. Jan. IA decision inn
poriant to railroad companies has been
handed down by the State Supreme Court,
In what Is known a. the Portsmouth
Bridge case. Cass County has for years
sought to tax Ncbmska's half Of the Bur
lington bridge over the Missouri River.
But the company has insisted that the
bridge WIS part Of the road bed aud that
4 should he assessed by the State Board OF
Railway Assessors. The suit grows out OF
this difference aud the Supreme Court held
that the bridge was no part Of the road
bed, and was therefore subject TO assess
mcnt aud taxation by local officers. This
decision affects five other Missouri River
milroad bridges IN Nebraska.

ONE oil the jurors in the Crouin case
tells how the verdict was brought about.
and how the cranky Culver held out
against the death sentence: Early in
our considerations we came to the con-
clusion that the evidence did not war
rant US in finding Beggs guilty. We
did not take much stock in his limo
cence, even those who voted for his &C
quittal On the FIRST ballot. but under
our oAths we found it necessary to de-
eide not guilty, Well, from early Sun
day morning till we returnsd our YER
dict Monday afternoon, we worked dill
gently with Culver on the question OF
penalty. First We took Kuuzs and gave
him three years. His case was soon
settled. When we began on Coushlin.
Burke and O'Sullivan, Culver stuck out
for fourteen years. We kept on, work
ing as none of Us had ever worked be-
fore. Culver rose to twenty years, then
to twenty five years. and finally, at noon
Monday. he consented TO send men
whom he deemed innocent of any crime
to the penitentiary for life. We did
not press him much farther. We
feared he would so back on his vote of
guilty, as ne threatened TO do. We
thought life imprisonment better than
= disagreement. and SO we desisted aud
notified the Court of our agreement"

Exaggeration is a sign that we feel
strongly and express ourselves coarse
ly. A great master of words, says the
author OF Thoughts About Art, ex-
presses himself strongly rather by the
exact and adhesive fitness of his words
to the occasion than by their violence.
The essayist's explanation of what
he means by adhesive fitness" should
be inwardly digested by every young
writer who sincerely wishes to sue
