DISEASE IN THE FREE BATH.

Impure Water the Cause of OpthaImy In
Children Who Frequeuted IL.
New York Press.1
The free bath at the foot of Market street
il responsible for the illness of several chill
dren, according to the belief Of DR.. Henry
Freeman, who had been called to attend
them. The doctor notified the Board Of
Health and the Department Of Public
Works, and at the last place, yesterday. it
was said that the bath would be closed at
once until an examination of the water
could be made by the Health Department.
The disease with which DR.. Freeman's
patients were afflicted is ophthalmy Of .
Virulent nature. Each child, the physician
found, also, was at all times in the summer
an habitusl attendant at the Market street
bath. DR.. Freeman himself made an ex-
animation of the water in the neighborhood
of the bath, being suspicious that the foul
water of the river was the cause of the COM
mon disease. After his visit to the place he
was assured that his surmise was correct, he
says, and he felt that it was his duty to
bring the matter to the attention Of tho
Board of Health. The water is undoubt-
edly fouled by the sewers.

jibs and spankers for every little puff OF for

to anything, unless. perchance, he stumoles
upon common sense ideas before he has worn
himself out, body and mind, trying every
thing that comes across his pathway,

Covering Too Much Ground.
A man Of sturdy character along some
specific line of usefulness may spread him
self out so thin that he soon becomes in
visible. You can beat out golden % piece
until it covers your parlor floor, and it still
remains intact so far as Its actual intrinsic
worth is concerned, but there are very few
men who can afford to be pounded very
much. God has a place for every man to
fill, certain sphere of action in which he
is intended to move. If the devil can In
duce him to taste Of forbidden fruit, and
spread himself out till he is lost TO all his
opportunities for good he will certainly re-
joice.
Little boats should stay near shore,
But larger ones may venture more.
If young men would take advice from
older ones-I do not mean old ones-they
would succeed in life sooner. Not one man
in hundred reaches the full fruition Of
life's possibilities under 40 years of age.
This need not be SO, ii the discipline one
man undergoes could be utilized by another.
George Eliot says: "Genius, at first, is little
more than great capacity for receiving
discipline" The trouble with very young
men is that they feel their wings too soon.
Not far from my study window robin built
her nest. The young birds were anxious to

She was successful with all but one,

his avoirdupois was beyond his power OF
suspension. The law of gravity was too
much for him, and down he went He met
with an unexpected reception from the cat,
who had watched with longing eyes for just
such an event. Bishop Horne says: "Ad-
versity borrows its bitterest sting from our
impatience." would not, however, curb
ambition. A young man without this quail
ity is OF little use in our busy lite. No, NO;
not that, for with Whittier believe it is:
Better to stem with heart and hand
The roaring tide of life than lie
Unmindful, on the howery strand
For Gods occasions, floating by,
Better with naked nerve to bear
The needles of this goading air,
Than in the lap of sensuous ease forgo
The godlike power to do. the godlike aim to

Opinions for and Agninst Capital Punish-
ment In Any Form.
New York Herald.l
Anthony Comstock, the head Of the 30
ciety for the Suppression of Vice, is
strongly opposed to the abolition of the
death penalty. SIT would never do" he
said, "to do away with capital punishment.
If imprisonment for life were to be substi-
tuted for the death penalty murders would,
in my opinion, increase at a fearful rate.
Imprisonment for life would in fact be no
punishment for our criminal classes. If we
hung quicker after conviction and without
so much delay it would be better.
David L. Moody, the revivalist, also
capital punishment. 81 believe in capital
punishment" he says "and do not believe
life would be safe without it. I am opposed
to any proposition to abolish it.
William T. Howe, who as criminal law
yer has had as wide experience with crimi-
nails and especially murderers, does not be-
lieve in capital punishment. He saws: "Out
of 600 cases which 1 have defended where
homicide was charged have lost but eight.
That shows how difficult it is to convict in
these cases. Capital punishment should
be abolished. There Is NO use for
it. It is not detersive; never has
been and never will be. 1 favor
Imprisonment for life. There should be no
power to pardon in such cases. Let the
convicted murderer be sent to living tomb
and kept there. That would be punish
ment indeed. There is less punishment
about hanging than most persons think.
That is another reason why there is no use
for it. Imprisonment for life is a real de-
terrent of murder. Hanging is not"
Belva Lockwood, the woman lawyer, is
rather undecided as to whether capital pun
ishment should be abolished or not. She
does, however, believe that the day of brutal
hanging exhibitions has passed. Some way
of inficting the punishment in painless
but sure and quick way should be adopted.
Mrs. Lockwood thinks that electricity is the
best means at hand.

ries Temperance 20 Extremes.
Tolstoi is vegetarian and says that the
ideal physical lite is that of the Brahmins
OF India, says a correspondent of the New
York World. He believes in reducing ones
wants to a minimum, and in producing, 50
far as possible, with ones own hands the
wherew1thal both to feed and clothe the
body. A state of society IN which the con-
ditlon of one would never be such as to ex-
cite envy in another is the secret of true So
cial happiness.
When he took me into his little koumiss
esta blishment to give me drink Of the bev-
erage, he said with enthusiasm that with an
acre of grass land and a couple of mich
mares q man would possess ample property
for his support. The mares would live Of
the grass and the man could milk them and
live of koumiss.
Temperance finds in the great novelist an
enthusiastic supporter He neither drinks
intoxicating beverages nor smokes, and he
includes in the term many other indulgences
that the ordinary advocates of temperance
consider part Of their creed.

street under spur and whip, one of
them, the clear part Of the street be-
t ing narrow, plunged headlong into
the crowd, fell and rolled over, knock

BERTHE Butler, lad about fourteen
years old, was picked up senseless,
and it was thought for some time that
he had been fatally injured. Drs
