Effects of Anthropotoxine.

Every one knows that the air Of a
close room in which many persons arc
sitting becomes bad, and that it is in
furious. For long time the injurious
effects have been attributed to carbo mic
acid gas, but recent experiments con-
Quoted by capable observers would seem
to show that this is an error. 1t has
been found that air containing very
large amounts of pure carbonic acid gas
can be breathed with absolute impunity,
but that air spoiled by the breathing Of
human beings contains small quantities
of one or more very poisonous substances,
to which Prof. Debois- Raymond has
given the name anthropotoxine, or hui
man poison. To this alone is due the
noxiousness of the air in unventilated
rooms. Recent experiments of French
scientists show that this poison comes
from the lungs. But the fact that the
poison has been named, and that we know
just where it comes from, doesn't make it
any more wholesome.-C hicago Her

Mr.. Spring, while walking with friend

extraordinary movements of large black

animation showed that the creature had

of the dorsal fin, and the poor fish was
swimming round and round slowly. or

During an interval of six or eight minutes
absence the spider had drawn the fish en-

had fallen in again, the bank being nearly
perpendicular. There followed a great
struggle, and on Mr.. Springs return the fish
was already hoisted head first more than
half its length upon the land. 1t was very
much exhausted, hardly making any move

drawn up by the spider, who had evidently
gained the victory.

Fooled by a Butcher.
From the st Louis Republic.

The famous hungarian, Count Zichy.
who lived on a princely income IN Vienna.
was, in his younger days, well-known all
over Europe for the bets he made and gen.
orally won. Once when there was heavy
duty imposed on every head of cattle en-
tering the Austrian capital he made bet
that he would carry lamb, duty free,
through the gates of Vienna, and that the
gate-keeper, who acts as imperial officer,
adjusting and receiving the duty, would
be glad to let him pass.
.3Next morning the court, disguised in the
clothes of butcher, his butcher knife in
his hand, his shirt sleaves rooled up, and
carrying heavy sack on his shoulder,
made his way to one the fashionable gates
at Vienna. But. the watchful officer soon
espied him.
What have you in that sack, fellow!"
"a dog, SIR"

sack l know fellows like you sometimes

Never mind what you will. Down with

The officer pulled the sack from the cup
pose butchers shoulder, cut the string and,
sure enough, out jumped one of the
biggest dogs in Vienna. The dog rushed
against the faithful government servant,
landed him several steps away in the gutter
and then left for parts unknown. After
him went the young butcher, shaking his
big knife before the eyes Of the frightened
officer and exclaming:
I'm settle you after catch that dog"
About two hours afterward the face of
the butcher again appeared before the raised
window of the gate Office.

EVANGELICAL UNION.
Formation of Branch Alliance
Discussed.

The l0Dg-talked-0f union meeting of the
Protestant Evangelical clergymen was held
yesterday morning at Young Mems Chris
tian Association Hall, when temporary or
ganizaton was effected by the election of
Rev. DR.. Il. NJ. Gibson TO the chair and
Rev. Ii. II. Wikoff to the secIetaryship.
l he meeting was thoroughly representa-
tive one and was we'll attended.
The proceedings were opcIed with pray er
after which the Rev. DR.. S. V. Leach of tile
Howard NJ. E. Church read an able
and appropriate paper on The Need of Co
operation Among the Churches in Evan
gelical Work" In the course of his article
he handled the evils of San Francisco life
without gloves. He condemned its prosti-
tuition OF the sabbath, its immortality, greed
and criminality of every description. The
evils of its gambling resorts, saloons and
brothelS were painted In lurid colors, and it
was claimed that the proprietors aud
habiturs of those establishments were
banded together to resist the progress of
Christianity. The presence OF foreigners
among the depraved classes was referred
10, and the Catholic Church was spoken of
In rather denuncatory terms.
at the conclusion of the address Rev. ii.
ID. Rice offered the plan for the formation
OF branch Of the General Evangelical AL
lance, and moved that such branch be
formed
The motion was supported by Rev. T. B.
Stewart. who spoke OF the good work per-
formed by the alliance in Los Angeles in
cl sing up saloons there on the Sabbath.
Rev. Dr.. Edward Thompson of the Sab
bath Alliance deprecated DIR. Leach's re-
marks concerning Cathoicity, and stated his
firm determination never to oppose any
thing good. He also believed that the sue
cess of the temperance crusade in Los An
geleS was due as much to Catholic efforts as
10 Protestant, and could never have been eff
fected if it had not been for their co-opera-
iiou.
DR.. Leach explained that he only had ref
erence to the hostility of the Catholic Church
toward the public-sr hool system. and with
that explanation the matter was dropped.
The matter of the proposed branch alli-
ance was then discussed, the arguments pro
and con showing great lack of unanimity
After considerable debate the matter was
referred to committee consisting of DR..
Nj. Nj. Gibson, Rev. j. q. Adams and Rev.
d. e. Thompson, who will report to an ad-
journed meeting next Monday afternoon.
Rev. DIR. Stewart was appointed TO read a
paper at the next regular meeting of the or
gaDiZatlOn.
