NARROW ESCAPE.
Eleven Men Rescued from n Flooded
Mine.


Mine.
PITTSToN, Pa, May 22.-The Wad-
dell colliery. near the Borough OF Luz
zerne, four miles south of here, has been
flooded, and eleven men who were
working in the mine were shut in for a
time.
The flooding was caused by the break
ing of rift dam in the abandoned
workings of the Croderick colliery.
As soon as it was known that the mine
had been submerged, search was in
stituted for the missing men. The first
search was unsuccessful. Another en-
trance was affected as soon as possible,
and, perched upon the highest point in
the mine, were found eight of the inn
prisoned miners. They were gotten out
safely. A little later all the others were
saved.
The damage to the mine is estimated
at s., 900, and the mine will have to lie
idle several weeks.

Wheat Crop out of Danger.

MINNEAPOLIs,M MINI, May 20. Though
the showers of last week did inestima-
BILE good to the Northwest, the rains of
Tuesday and Tuesday night were far
more important to Minnesota. South
Dakota and portion of North Dakota,
as all danger to wheat from drought is
now practically past. In Iowa and
Montana, where farmers were alarmed
because of the continued cold, it is re-
ported that warm showers fell Tuesday
and during part of Tuesday night. This
will greatly hasten the season. which is
fully three weeks behind time in the
sections named.

Strength, is il, it gives to men! And
which needs it most thin, I'd like to
know-Pat, with his great stout frame
and a fist that would send me a rod if
he liked; or me, that weighs but hum
dred pound, and am only four feet six
in the slippers my mother put on me?
Strength it gives, does it? I'll tell We
the strength it gives. Didn't he come
home last Saturday night as drunk as a
haste? Well he did. And hadn't the
beautiful supper for him? And what
does he do, the first thing, but to throw
my taypot beyant the backlog? I
wasn't so to be put by, so 1 stint his
brown jug to keep it company. Faith,
but it was wroth thin he was, and up he
gets in his strength and puts me out of
the door, a-shtaggerin' all the while,
and bangs it on me, LAWN the children
screamin like mad. But you know, nv
Teddy, I'm spry as cat; so l jumps in

tied hisself on the stool feminist the
fire l switched it from under and laid
him a-sprawlin' on the floor, fiat on his
back; and he was jist that strong with
his whisky he couldn't get up at all, at
all. And didn't 1 set the table over
him and dance the beautiful hornpipo
atop in spite of him? Troth, did; and
l can do it again whenever he gets the
strength of the whisky in him. That's
the strength it gives, my leddy-I
know; and Nora chuckled with delight

MICROBES IN BEER.
Tho Foamy STUFF Is Full Of Dlseas o Bree

The Foamy stun Is Full Of Disease Breed
ing Germ~.
''Come in and have a smile with me-"
said learned young scientist as he
took the arm of reporter and ushered
him into palatial cafe on Broadway.
Sitting down at one of the tables. he
tapped the bell and inquired: "What
are you going to have?'
Beer" said the newspaper man.
A bottle of beer was brought. The
beverage shone in the thin drinking
glass like liquid gold and the foam was
white as snow.
1t had so excellent a taste that the
scribe was about to pour the remainder
into his glass when the scientific man
said: ''Wait a moment" and drew from
his overcoat pocket microscope and
slide.
He placed few drops of the beer be-
meath the powerful glass, arranged it
80 that its magnifying powers were
focused on the malt liquor, turned the
eye-piece toward his companion and di-
rected him to look.
The reporter started back with as
Constituent, so huge seemed che multi
tude of bugs and wriggling, crawling
creatures that he gazed upon.
''Great Scott! What are these?' he
exclaimed.
Bacteria" replied his vis-a-vis.
"You have already taken few hundred
thousand of them.''
The reporter grieved because his
friend had not made the revelation be-
fore.
'Oh, never mind" said the professor,
lightly. you drank only one glass,
and don't suppose that will hurt you
very much. But did you ever think a
bottle of beer was more crowded with
living creatures than the most Dense
ly populated tenement-house in Now
York;"
The reporter confessed that he didn't
and asked it such beer bacteria were
harmful.
''Of course" was the reply. 81 do
not mean to condemn and decry all hot
tied beer, but lots of it is full of such
germs as these, invisible to the naked
eye, which are insidious promoters of
disease in the system of any one who
drinks it. This little lesson of NINE"
he said, lust demonstrates that beer
is full of germs, and the question as to
whether beer itself is liable to contami-
nate the drinker and kill him depends
on how 1t is made and bottled. NAV

beers which it is absolutely unsafe to
drink. have taken samples of various
brands of beer, subjected them to anal

ALCOHOL AS MEDICINE.
Gratifying Reports Made by tho Medica
Authorities OF ENGLAND.

Gratifying Reports Made by tho Medical
Authorities OF England.
A very interesting report has been
presented to the British Medical Tenn
perance Association by Drs. Morton
Moir and Pearce on the administration
of alcohol in hospitals. The committee
have drawn up a series of tables full of
instructive figures, instituting a COM
parison between the amount expended
under this head in 1868 and in 1885, The
rema k .ble fact is noted that in these
twenty five years there has been, from
the returns made by lib hospitals, an
increase of 800 per cent. in the charge
for milk and a decrease of ~ per cent.
in the charge for alcohol. A second table
gives returns from g. hospitals of which
no previous record could be found. On
the basis adopted by Dr. Fleetwood
Buckle. in his report on 1863, these go
hospitals show decrease of 80 per
o. he expenditure for alcohol per
uou. a third table shows the compare
tive alcoholic charges per bed in 1853
and 1888 respectively. In 70 hospitals
there had been an increase Of
2,10S beds, and decrease of
total average cost per bed of
SIS, So. 6. Beds have thus increased 1T
the rate of q per cent, while tho
amount expended on alcohol has de-
creased at the rate of Al per cent. Only
eight of this group of hospitals showed
an increase in the quantity of alcohol
consumed. In the remaining IS the de-
crease ranged from 80 to 81 per cent
In the London Fever Hospital, while
milk has risen from $50 to $3.50 per
annum, the disbursements for alcohol
were at the rate of only 15s. I'd. per
bed in 1883, as compared with e3, So.
per bed in 1862 In st. Bartholomew
Hospital the milk bill has gone up from
$500 to over $4,000, while the alcohol
bill had gone down from 81, 44e to e953.
These statistics prove that there has
been grad dally increasing rational
medical administration of alcohol, the
credit of which must be awarded to the
medical stats of the hospitals, fact
which affords yet another proof of the
lively interest in the promotion of Tenn
perance taken by the medical profess
siOn.-Rritish Medical Journal.
