LONDON. Sept. IA correspondent
who has been visiting the Russian
southwestern frontier, at Bessarabia, as
far as the Danube, SAYS that troops are
rapidly arriving and in large numbers.
This would he the base of departure for
Russian army, advancing toward the
Balkans and Constantinople At
Tutschkoff, four regiments We're quar-
tered where, last year, there were only
two. At Vulkoyo and Kilia five regi-
ments had recently arrived, in addition
to the men already there.
At Kagul three regiments arrived
about month ago, aud Jalpuch rein
forcements Of 1000 men have recently
taken up their quarters. Troops are
pouring in at the same rate into other
villages. These places are of little con-
sequence apart from their situation,
where an army of invasion would natur-
concentrate. In view of these facts the
correspondent concludes that Russia in
tends, at no distant date, to make
across the Danube for Constantinple and
that her preparations show that this
time she means to have a force suffi-
Gent to overcome all obstacles.

One of the most curious facts given by
Dr. Parsons in his report on influenza re-
lates to what is called strangers cold"
an epidemic from which the little com
munity living at st. Kilda, in the broad
waters of the north Atlantic, suffers every
time Il vessel from any other part of the
world arrives, Indeed, so surely does this
outbreak follow the arrival of boat that
it is called by the islanders boat cough. &"
In other oceanic islands the same odd eff
fects have been observed.
In an island $50 miles east of New Tea
land similar epidemic attacks both Euro
peans and Maoris on the arrival of a ship
So regular is the occurrence that when
murri-murri as the cold is called, appears
the good folk are so sure that "A ship is in
the port that they ride straight off to the
harbor Ito fetch their letters" Stran-
gers cold and influenza are remarkably
alike in their symptoms.
The cause of the former is attributed to
the organisms Of disease that people in
populous lands carry about with Them
and to which they themselves are Injured
If that be so, whence comes our influenza?

Is often found in the neglect of ones

that neglect are fully realized. AS a

Inc granar1es required by the Chinese
laws to be filled during the good seasons,
and, when needed, the grain to be sold
to the people at government rates, have
not been filled daring the past year, and
in consequence contain only a small por-
ton of the amount collected the season
previous, Last year, in the n-Tung
province, where the crop was poor
one, the suffering from want was in
tense, and hundreds died of starvation.
The tea crop has been quite good
one this year and the profits are thought
to be fair and well ON toward repaying
for the loss made during the last season.
The out-turn of common teas is claimed
to be quite fine, and that of the second
piclIings much more than at first expect
ed. The introduction of Ceylon tea into
the American and European markets
has caused a decline in the sale of fine
teas, but the demand for the medium
grades still remains about as usual.

The Sheriff of Pulaski County, KY, shO

Down by an Assassin.
SOMERSET, KY, Sept. ID. II. Nc
Hargue, sheriff of Pulaski county, was
foully murdered Saturday night.
The sheriff resides about six miles
from this place, and left here at 6 o'clock.
He had reached home, fed his horse, and
had eaten supper. AT 8 o'clock he went
out to the barn to look after his horses.
His wife heard shot, and went out and
found her husband lying in the road.
She raised his head, and the assassin at
tempted to fire at her, but the pistol
failed to go off, and the party made their
escape before they were recognized.
Mr.. McHargue had been a sheriff for
several years, was one of the most popu-
lar citizens of the county, director of
the Somerset Banking company, and a
gentleman who has always taken a
prominent part in any enterprise for the
good of the county. There is no clew
as to who the assassin was, but it is
thought to be a gang of counterfeiters
who have been located in that part of
the county There was much excite
ment among the citizens of the town,
and many of them have gone to the
place where the deed was committed,
and if it can be found out who the
assassin was, he will be lynched as soon
as caught.
John and Joe Gilland have been ar
rested for the murder.

A RIVAL FOR THE STANDARD.


PARKERsBURG, w. Va, Sept 10
Movements are ON foot here looking to
the re-ostablishment of independent oil
refineries. For years the Standard has
driven out all competitors, and many
wealthy independent refiners have been
ruined. The low quotations of crude oil
has, however, again started the indie
pendents. In the Muskingum district,
across the Ohio, the old Lowell refinery,
still for years, is being repaired, and
operations will soon begin. In this city
the Sweetzer and other reineries are
likely soon to be started again. The oil
producers are behind the enterprises.
