THE EVIL SCHOOLS DO.

AWAY WITH LATIN AND GREEK.
Professor Koch Can Cure Diphtheria by

BERLIN. Dec. 6-[Associated Press, COPY
righted, 1890. + The Reichsanzeigey gives
passages from Emperor Williams recent
speech on school reform. One point the
emperor especially emphasizes is the time
lost in higher public schools in examining
youths with Latin and Greek instead OF
the German language and German history
especially the growth of German institu-
tons, and the idea OF national unity.
Modern history, he declared, il rightly
taught, would become infinitely more val u
able than the chronicles of an
tiquity. How, he asked, were so
many young Germans seduced from
the path of political virtue? How was it
that Germany produced so many reform
ers OF society. so many men nagging at
their own government while commencing
the governments of other nations? 1t was
simple ignorance arising from defective
education on the genesis of modern Ger
many. The higher schools must mend
their methods. They must make the studies
bear upon practical life; reduce the boys
book work. and give more time for healthy
recreation and training of the body. The
present system tended toward the over
production of highly educated people.
Journalists, he said, were high school pro-
ducts run to seed.
He approved the saying of Bismarck,
concerning the leaders OF the proIetariat.
whom he called hunger candidates" and
from whom the ranks of Journal IN were
largely recruit ed, forming class dangerous
to society.
Finally he declared that he would not
license any more high schools until their
methods were amended.
Newspapers nerally sharply resent the
emperor's references TO journalism. The
National Gazette says that instead of their
being hungry candidates." many high
state officials ara only too wiling to ex-
change their posts for positions on the
press if they can get them.
The latest developments of Koch's dis
covery of the cure for diphtheria and
tetanus have been limited TO test expert
ments with animals until yesterday, when
the remedy was applied to several human
subjects, through the TRANSMISSION OF blood
from animals not susceptible to diphtheria
bacillus or tesanus. 1t was found that
the blood of rats and mice had destruc-
tive effect on the virus of diphtheria,
while the blood of rabbits transfused had
a similar effect on tetanus. Before trans
fusion the blood must be freed from
coaguium and otherwise prepared.
Professors Siemes and Baur, lecturing
before the Munich medical faculty, ex-
pressed themselves as opposed 10 the use
OF Koch's lymph in private practice until
the chances of cure are better caculable.
A patient in Vienna hospital. who was
under treatment by the new method. died
suddenly as soon as the reaction following
the incubation set in. and l7-year-oid
girl, who was inocuIated with the lympR
for lupus Yesterday at Innspruck, died
from paralvs's of the heart.

NORTH CAROLINA MAYOR WHIPPED
Offenders He Had Sentenced Take a
Terrible Revenge.

AerrlDie hevehge.
WINDSOR, n. c., Dec. Especial IA.
J. Priichard, ex-mayor of Windsor, was
found this morning stripped and tied to
tree about two miles from here. He was
unconscious from the terrible whipping he
had received, and his body was raw and
bleeding from his neck clear to his feet,
and his assailanis had shaved one side OF
his head and face.
DR.. Pritchard says tn at on his way to his
farm this morning he met three unknown
men, one of whom dealt MIN blow from
behind, knocking him down. When he
recovered consciousness he was stripped of
all his clothing and tied to the tree. The
men took turns at whipping him. He
swooned away under the terrible ordeal,
and did not recover consciousness until
brought TO town. Mr.. Pritchard, while
mayor, was very hard upon offenders, and
it is thought that some parties whom he
hsd punished nave thus taken vengeance
upon him.
