THE BEST OF THE PAIR.


Several newspapers in the West, the
Laramie Boomerang among them, aye
publishing editorial articles to the effect
hat John Finnerty will challenge Con
gresham Frank Lawler for calling him a
liar, a poltroon aud a traitor at the re
cent Cronin picnic. "Finnerty's courage
is unIuestioned, say these papers, and
he does not have to rehabilitate his repu-
tation as a fighter by calling in to his aid
the two idiocy of the code. The best
course for him to pursue is to pay no at
tention to the BLACKBOARD aud gin peddler
whom Chicago has sent to congress. Law
Ter is an illiterAte d%emlgogue who knows
little about the meaning of words"
So far as Lawler is concerned he may
not be an well educated as some Of his
critics, bus he certainly has as much good
hard common sense as halt a dozen of
them put together. Finnerty was in con.
gress once. but he devoted most Of his
time to the Dlatherskite endeavor to

Man About Town, that the daily press
of the country is beginning TO agitate as
n of doing away with the evil Of
drunkenness a remedy which l advo-
Gated several years ago. My idea was
to build at public expense asylums where
drunkards could be sent and kept in CON
tinement until pronounced permanently
cured by a competent physician. 1t was
my opinion that these institutions should
be maintained by money secured through
n tax levied on the keepers Of saloons,
and / do not believe that there is one
saloon keeper out of "A hundred who
would not favor such a plan. Such in
situations, properly conducted, with a
law requiring the confinement therein Of
every man detected in a state of intoxi-
cation would, | think, go far toward
bringing about an abatement of the evil.
1t would cause a large percentage of the
men who now make a practice of getting
Trunk to hesitate before making the VEN
ture- | had even gone so far as to draft
a bill embodying the provisions outlined
above, with the intention of having it
introduced in the legislature, but at the
earnest solicitation of a few friends, who
deemed it an unwise measure, l allowed
the matter to drop, although l felt her
and still feel that it would be a good
thing for the state to have some such

Prostitution from Heat.

The effects of undue exposure to heat
vary widely, and are by no means al
ways proportionate to the temperature
TO which the person has been exposed.
The so called sun stroke, or hea stroke,
may occur either in the direct rays of
the sun or in hot rooms. such as laundry
roomso or the holds OF steamships. At
tacks may occur in the night as well as
during the day, and, in general, are to
be feared at times when the atmosphere
is loaded with moisture, so that free per-
spiration is checked. Experience shows
that the drinking of ice water, when the
body is o~verheated, is a prolific cause of
these attacks. All degrees of severity
are met with, from the lightest attack of
headache and dizziness to the sudden
stroke which ends in death within a few
minutes. Some authorities would make
three distinct degrees of heat prostra-
ton, although the line is seldom dis
tinctly drawn in any given case.
The first variety includes those cases
which show nothing more han a sudden
faintness, muscular weakness and dizzi-
ness, with, perhaps, nausea and vomit-
ing. The surface of the body is cool,
the pulse rapid and feeble. In such cases
rest in a recumbent position in a cool
place for q few hours will generally give
relief.
In the second class of cases, the respi-
ration and hearts action are affected, and
the patient may die suddenly of syncope.
Active measures must be entered upon
at once. The patient should be removed
to a cool spot, the clothing removed or
loosened, and cold water applied to the
head. Complete recovery from the eff
fects may not take place for years.
The third form is the most severe, and
in the majority OF cases proves fatal.
The sufferer becomes unconscious, the
skin is dry, the pulse slow and full, the
face flushed, and the breathing labored.
Generally there is entire Inconsistencies,
and sometimes commissions. The tenn
perature runs excessively high, and the
first attempt should be to. bring it to the
normal point. For this purpose cold
baths and the application of ice are indi-
Gated. AS BOOT as the temperature is
lessened stimulation must be commenced
to counterfeit the great depression which
always follows. 1t is important t re-
member that there is little danger from
heat so long as the perspiration is free.
BY bearing this in mind many who are
exposed might no doubt avert the threat
ened attack by leaving work and seeking
shelter as soon as the diminution in per

a San Francisco newspaper offered
300 to the one who would correctly
guess the number of types in a jar ex-
hibited in the exposition there. Two men
were successful, naming the correct
number, "a, 200. How they came to hit
on that number is interesting. One of
them once guessed the number OF shot IN
a jar about the same size as the one con
tanning the type. There were 90, 900. He
thought there were one-third as many
type as shot. and so divided 81, 900 by 8,

around the jar, and felt in his pocket for
a pencil with which to write his number.
He couldn't find one, and moved n but
afterwards, feeling strongly impelled to
make a guess, felt again for a pencil,
and found an old lottery ticket, on
