Lean Meat and Water.

Can life and health be sustained
upon n diet Of lean meat
and water, without any farinaceous
food Mt all? Psychologists tell Us
that it cannot; experience seems 10
negative their assertion. 1t is
highly desirable that this question
should be cleared up and finally set
at rest, both from a practical and
from a purely scientific point Of
view. A diet Of lean meat is now
being advocated for several purposes
in practical medicine. and il is Of
the highest importance that We
should know for certain for what
period II can be carried on without
injury to the patient.
In this country it is being used
chiefly for the reduction of obesity,
but in New York several physicians
are making an extensive use of .
diet consisting entirely of lean meat
and water, not only for that purpose
but also in the treatment Of dyspep-
sia, phthisis, ecstasia Of the stomach
and in the absorption Of new
growths; in the latter case it being
claimed that by increasing the meta
bolism of the body recently formed
tumors can be absorbed. In order
to procure these results, the use Of r
diet consisting entirely Of lean meat
and water is continued for a period
Of at least several months, and the
advocates OF this new school claim
that the benefit to the general health
Of the patient is marked and ALSO.

AN HISTORIC HORROR.
THE TALE OF An ALMOST FORGOT
TEN WASHINGTON TRAGEDY
RECALLED.

The dreadful disaster which has
overtaken Secretary Tracy recalls
the shocking tragedy of February
., 1914, by which two cabinet off,
GERS, a high naval officer and other
officials were instantly killed in the
very presence of President Tyler
and his cabinet
The story Of the tragedy is told In
q graphic manner in the recently
published DIARY Of Philip Hone.''
In his entry for February %, ls44,
he says: "Horrible! Most horrible.
An express arrived at 9 O'Clock
bringing an account of an awful
catastrophe which occurred yester.
day at about 4 O'Clock p. m, on
board Captain Stockton's steam
frigate PriteetoR. The vessel,
which was here a few weeks ago,
fitted up with EricssOn's propelle:s,
and carrying the enormous wrought
iron gun, which threw, by the
force Of forty-five pounds Of powder,
a hall Of pIOpoTuonate size
three miles at zach discharge.
The murderous proiectile was
named the 'Peacemaker,' and most
deplorsbly has it earned its name,
by making, in an instant, the peace
of several OF the most distinguished
men Of the country, and sending
them "where the wicked cease from
trOubling.o As ( r as the accounts
have reached us, it is certain that
in dischargiug this gun with ball,
near TO Alexandria on the Potomac,
it exploded at 4 time when there
was a party on board Of 500 ladies
apd gentlemen, including the presi-
dent and heads Of departments tall
excepting Mr.. Spencer), with their
families, naval and military officers,
senators and members Of the house
Of representatives, ami all the dis
tinguished persons resident ano
visiting at Washington
The effect of this tremendous ex-
plosion was the immediate death
under tire most shocking circum-
stances OF Mr. upshur, secretary OF
state; Governor Gilmer. secretary OF
the navy; Virgil Maxey, late
charge d'afairs at Belgium; Daniel
Gardner, late State senator of New
York, from Long Island, Com
mander Beverly kennon, US. N,
and Others. Captain Stockton was
dangerously wounded and Colonel
Benton slightly. Governor Gil
mer's wife was on board. There
were 200 ladies on board, but fortu-
nately they were all below dining
and drinking toasts. The voice OF
mirth and joviality below mingled
with the groans aud dying on deck.

given the same term.

reason TO complain. He was getting
the lowest sentence under the law.

OF horse thieves. They were nst
content with one theft. but had
stolen stock in all parts Of the coun-

An Interesting HeteOrite.

A meteorite, containing organic
matter, has recently been examined
by NJ. Stanislas Munier, the well
known French authority on these
foreign visitors to our planet. The
stone fell az Mighel, in Russia, on
the 9th OF June last, land was a green
ish black color, speckled with
white crystals. after the likeness Of
a starling's breast. The surface was
wrinkled, the substance friable, and
capable Of staining the fingers. 1t
was found on analysis to consist
chiefly OF silicate Of magnesium
and iron, with crystals Of other
minerals interspersed. But it con-
tanned about five per cent Of orpanic
carbon. which burned brilliantly in
a current Of dry oxygen gas. A
fright yellow resin was extracted
from it by means Of alcohol The oc-
currence of organic carbon in mete.
orites has been observed before, but
the source Of the substances il
purely conjectural. Are meteorites
in general but the debris Of the
played-out planets-the rubbish OF
the universe? And is this latest Of
them really the moss-grown frag-
ment Of another world, such as n
past president of the British Associ-
alton imagined capable Of bringing
