That DisCOyery.

BERLIN, Nov. 17.-Prof. Koch publishes
an article in the DeutsChe MedihizisChe
Wechenschirift on the cure of tuberculo-
sis. Prof. Koch says he is yet unprc-
pared to indicate the source from which
the curative matter is derived and the
method OF preparation, for the reason
that experimental work is still in progress.
He states that the curative lymph itself
can be obtained from DR.. Libberth, No.
%, Lueneberger Strasse, Berlin. The
lymph is described as consisting OF n
brownish transparent liquid so prepared
as to be proof against deterioration, when
diluted with water, for use. The matter
is liable to decay and it is necessary there
fore that attenuG-ions be perfectly steri-
lized by heat and preserved in wadding
covering or prepared with a solution OF
phenol, 50 percentage strong. When

who have long expected severe reac-

the average OF prices thrown back to a

1t remains fact that the legitimate
business throughout the country is the
largest ever known not much inflated or
endangered by speculation, and so far
com plants in regard to collections have
been much fewer than usual. The check
now sustained may not produce a shrink
age in transactions and a diminuton OF

conditions have been so favorable that
speculative disturbances are the less like

That caused peoples spirits to sink.

but he refused, and she returned

A Plague of Mice.

With reference to the plague OF
mice in entral Australia, the Nun
doora correspondent Of the Kapun-
da Herald writes as follows: "On the
I'd inst. | visited the wheat-stacks,
and [ find that over eighty bags Of
loose wheat have been scraped up to
day in moving only a small portion
OF the stack. During my visit the
wheat was running from the stack
in such quantities as to sound like
steady rain. Parts of the outside of
the stack that had been cleared,
now have the wheat on the out
side three feet high. Hundreds
OF bags within sight are almost en-
tirely empty; many, in fact, do not
contain hatful. Thousands of the
bags will never be used again,
and a great quantity OF the
wheat is destroyed. The five
mice were in such numbers that
it was only necessary to lift an emp
ty sack and one hundred or more
would be prancing about your feet.
The dead mice are past counting; the
ground is strewn with them, and in
many places there are thousands in
q heap; SO that the smell is horrible,
and caused me to dispense with one
sense by making a handle Of my ma
sal organ when couple OF chains
from the stacks. On Monday
morning the men found the mice in a
small detached stack dead in the in
tervals between the bags in such
numbers that at least 10000 must
have been taken out that morning.
From Saturday to Monday morning
quite sixty bags of wheat ran out OF
one of the stacks. A farmer had
40 bags in his barn, and when he
cleared it out he found that only ten
OF the bags were worth mending, and
captured a Wheelbarrow full OF mice
during the operation. Three boys,
the eldest being IL, spent their last
holiday in catching mice, and they
caught $500. Several farmers have
been catching 5000 week, and a
friend of mine caught twenty-four in
a gin bottle, Itcontained little oil,
and they went after it until the bottle
was full, and the top one had been
partly eaten by his comrades. They
frequently eat each other, and the at
Port Broughton, I hear the rats eat
the mice. If the weather continues
coldwe shall getrid ofthem by the end
of August. Already the cold and wet
weather Of last month, which gave
us three inches Of rain, has killed
vast numbers. If the thermometer
falls below so degrees Fahrenheit the
mice become very sluggish-so slow
that they can easily be caught, and
they then come out to feed in the day.

they particularly require must be
