Y. N. C. A. MEDICAL LECTURES.
DR.. Pearson Gives an Entertaining Discourse
on Cerebral Hyperamia.

Owing to the interest developed by the
of seven medical talks before the members
of the Y. M. c. A. was somewhat altered.
DR.. Pearson was to deliver talk ON "Cere
bral Hyperemia" on Dec. 12. 1855, but ow-
ing to the cause as above stated, this talk
was postponed until last evening Those
who were present were well entertained by
the remarks of the Doctor, which were
more particularly confined to the causes
and symptoms of the disease under consid-
GRAFTON.
Cerebral an@mia, said Dr. Pearson, is de-
fined as congestion of the brain. There are
two forms of the disease-active and pass
ive-the former resulting from surplus Of
arterial circulation in the brain; the latter
produced by the over-discharge of venaI
blood through this organ. Until the last
few years congestion of the brain was little
understood, and its existence denied
by some who claimed that it
could not be, because the brain
was enclosed in an Theoretically sealed case.
When sleep is enjoyed, undisturbed by
dreams of an harassing nature the circula-
tion of the blood is less than during the
activity produced during working hours.
One of the causes of the congested con-
of labor too much toll and excitement is
undergone, which produces a super active
circulation, and the incipient stage begins.
If this strain upon the different parts of
the physical organism is uninterruptedly
maintained, we have what is called
TRANSMISSION of blood in the brain.
Protracted mental effort increases this sort
of circulation, and is the cause of many dis
orders of this kind. Emotional excitement
is another means Joy, shame, grief aud
anger all play their parts in bringing about
this state The symptoms may be of slow
growth and on the other hand, they may
assume q more active and powerful form.
Among some of the silent warnings of the
former condition are nervousness, leaving

and virtigo and weakness in the extremities.
In the more active manifestation may be
mentioned apoplexy, epilepsy and paraly-
sis. The effects may be temporary or per-
manent- The American people, said the
Doctor, are more liable to this ailment than
the people of Europe. owing to the extreme

met in the Grand Hotel. Green Smith
was easily nominated for Secretary on
the first ballot. The vote was as
follows: Smith, sixteen; William NJ. Moss,
OF Greene, ten; and w. j. Craig, Marion,
one. There were quite number OF candl-
dates for Door-keeper, but the majority of
them did not figure in the caucus. The
only ones voted for were Ed k. Hamilton.

that Frenzel was pushing him because he

MEMPHIS GOVERNMENT.
How the Metropolis of Tennessee Ceased
to Be Municipality.

How the Metropolis of Tennessee Ceased
to Be - Municipality.
Charles Dudley Warner, writing in Har.
pr's Magazine about Memphis and her prin-
cipal troubles, explains: Under these cir
cumstances the city resorted to a novel ex-
pedient. 1t surrendered its charter to the
State, and ceased to exist as municipalitv
The leaders of this movement gave two
reasons for 1.-THE wish not to repudiate
the city debt, but to gain breathing-tim
and that municipal government in this
country is a failure. The Legislature erect
ed the former Memphis into the taxing dis
trict of Shelby County, and provided a
government for it. This government con-
sists of a legislative council of eight
members, made up of the Board of Fire and
Police Commissioners, CONSISTING of three.
and the Board of Public Works, consisting
OF five. These are all elected by popular
vote to serve term Of four years, but the
elections are held every two years, so that
the council always contains members who
have had experience. The Board of Fire
and Police Commissioners elects presi-
dent, who is the executive officer of the
taxing district, and has the power and
duties OF mayor; he has salary of two
thousand dollars, inclusive of his fees as
police magistrate, and the other members
OF bus board have salaries of five hundred
dollars. The members of the Board of
Public Works serve without COMPENSATION,
No man can be eligible to either board who
has not been a resident of the
district for five years. In addition,
there is. Board of Health, appointed
by the council This government has
the ordinary powers OF city govern
ment, defined carefully in the act, but it
can not run the city in debt, and it can not
appropriate the taxes collected except for
the specific purposes named by the State
Legislature, which specific appropriations
are voted annually by the Legislature on
the recommendation of the council. Thus
the government of the city is committed to
eight men, and the execution of it's laws to
one man, the presidentef the taxing dis
trlct, who has extraordinary power. The
final success of this scheme will be watched
with great deal of interest by other cities.
On the surface it can be seen that it de-
pends upon securing a non-partisan council
and an honest, conscientious president of
The taxing district-that is to saw, upon
the choice by popular vote of the best eight
men to rule the city. Up to this time, with
only slight bitches, it has worked exceed
mgly well, as will appear in consideration
OF the condition of the city. The slight
hitch mentioned was that the president
was accused of using temporarily the sum
appropriated for one city purpose for an
other.

0ehgations by change of name and form
