SIR MoRELL MACKENZIE objects to

DR.. SULLIVAN WHITNEY, the first
American physician who manufactured
homeopathic medicines, has just died
at his home in Newtonville, Mass, at
the age OF eighty-three. He was grad

nearly fifty years ago.
DRs. BERTIN and Pieq, of Nantes,
France, have been conducting consump-
tion-cure experiments on the observa-
ton that goats are exempt from the dis
ease, and they now announce that con-
sumptive patients injected with goat
blood have been greatly benefited.
DIR. R. G. EooLEs points out that the
danger of diseases is as rule in the di-
rect ratio of the carelessness with which
they are regarded. He says that dis
eases may be classed as more or less
fatal as people are afraid of them and
seek proper advice to both prevent and
cure.
THE physicians of Havana are sue

The Great Eastern Saved by the Inge-
nuity of an American Engineer.
The Great Eastern, the largest steam
er ever built, was launched January 81,
1850. Almost from the first the exper-
ience of this ocean leviathan was
Unfortunate. Not long after being
placed in commission the vessel started
ona trip from Liverpool to New York.
When but two days out she was met by
brisk gale, which speedily developed
into a hurricane of destructive violence,
The side paddles were bent out of posi-
tion and made useless, the top Of the
rudder post was smashed and the help
less ship was soon tossing and rolling
about in the most alarming manner
The waves were constantly washing
over the decks and six Of the boats were
swept away, while the others stove in
The interior of the ship presented a
scene of the utmost confusion. Crock
cry and culinary utensils went crashing
about in all directions, chairs and ta-
bles were broken, and mirrors and
chandeliers were shattered into frag-
ments. The officers Of the ship were at
loss what to do, and probably the
Great Eastern would have gone to the
bottom had not a passenger, II. Il.
Towle, of Boston, who was civil en-
gineer, suggested and carried out plan
for controlling the rudder by means Of
alarge chain cable After an immense
amount Of labor every difficulty was
overcome and on the second day after
the hurricane began the vessel again
answered her helmand proceeded on
her course. The passengers held meet

The Occupation Of Mitylene Island
Was ONLY Temporary Say
the Officials.
In Need OF Land Practice, a Few
Men and Officers Were
Landed.
Nsverth oless In Diplomatic Circles tho
Moye Js Regarded rs Hint
to tho Sultan.

LONDON, Sept. 15.-It il now stated the
Mitylene scare has arisen from tho fact
that party of British naval officers 6atur-
day last picnicked on desert islet off Cape
1igri, and that they rs-embarked the same
evening ON board their vessel and sailed
away Sunday.
While ii is now admitted the British
force has not seized the island OF Mitylene,
news to the effect that the island has been
occupied was received from Mitylene and
elsewhere by various embassies at Constan-
tinople and other capitals. The now Turk
ish minister Of the interior telegraphed to
tho British minister at Constantinople, Sir
William White, asking the latter to explain
the reports of tho landing Of a British force
on Turkish territory. Sir William in reply
said he was entirely ignorant Of the whole
affair, but it was probable p.l that the
might have landed on the island
of Mitylens in the course of
regular boat drills and landing exercises.
The British ambassador assured the
Turkish minister that no fortitications had
been constructed on the island by British
troops. This view of the case was con-
tirmed by dispatches received during the
night stated that the force landed from the
British war ships has re-embarked and that
the man .of-war had left the island of
Mltylene for Marmorito. The affair has
caused great excitement in diplomatic
circles for short time, and 1t is still
asserted that these same ''maneuvers' had
at least the purpose of showing tho sultan
and his advisers how easily England could
off the island of Mitylene into dangerous
reality.

drawn out preliminary examination Of
Deeney, Hickey and Kelly, accused of the
murder of w. J. 2enrose, will bs heard by

To-day only three witnesses were exam
ined. They were Policeman Noonan, Jerry
Scannell and d. J. Hannigan. Their testi-
mony was about the same as that of the
other witnesses for the defence since the
attempt to prove al alibi was begun.
They testified to having seen the accused at
various places on Main street the night Of
the murder, and about the exact time OF its
commission. One of the men, ScanDell,
boards with Kelly's mother, and swore that
he saw Kelly in the dining room OF his
mothers house q few minutes past II
o'clock, and few minutes prior to that
saw Deeny standing near the gate OF his
house talking to Breen. Hannigan's testi-
mony relative to Deeny's whereabouts COR
roborated that of Soannell. lie also testi-
Scannell claimed to have seen him, and
that he saw Kelly in the dining room of his

Train wrecker Robinson Caught In the
Act Near PocatellO.
PooATELLo. Idaho, Sept. 15.-Since pas
senger train WAS wrecked at McCammon,
twenty two miles east of here. few weeks
ago. the Union Pacific officials have kept a
close watch on the track at that point, be-
ing satisfied that rails had been tampered
with and hoping to catch the party or par
ties guilty of the deed. Shortly after one
o'clock this morning watchman named
Logan noticed man named Robinson
walking up the track from McCammon.
Following about mile he discovered Rob-
inson placing ties. large stones and other
distractions across the track. A passenger
train was then about due. Logan watched
until Robinson had finished his devilish
work and turned back to go to McCammon.
when he threw aside the distractions,
hastcnsd to the station and wired the facts
to the railroad officials hsre. Deputy Sher-
iff Ross went to McCAmmon. placed Rob-
inson under arrest and brought him to this
city, where he had an examination and
was bound over in the sum of $1,000. Not
withstanding his uncorroborated plea Of
innocence there is no doubt but that he ID
the same man who wrecked the train a few
weeks ago at that point. II the law is al
lowed to take its course it will surely land
Robinson in the penltentiary, If the charges
are proven.

the ropes, but missed All opening for a
knockout. The third round was McCarthy's.
He nearly dropped Smith with glancing
left on the jaw. The next three rounds
varied little, Smith continuing on the ag-
gressive driving hot left for McCarthy's 9
chin, while the latter responded with
right swings, upper-cutting at close quar-
ters. Smith nearly lifted him off his feet
in tho fifth. From the seventh round on
Smith resorted to right-hand heart punch
es, but a loft drive, catching MCCARTHY on
the jaw in the middle of the eighth round,
sent him staggering to the ropes. Smith
followed him up. punching him in the
wind, and Mccarthy sat down, bpt rose to
continue the fight, when Smith rushed him
to the ropes, playing with both hands for
his head and wind. MCCARTHY went down
three times. Twice he rose Mt the call of
nine seconds and feebly attempted to re-
spond to Smith, who was himself weak
from the force of his blows, hut when he
went down for the third time he was una
able to rise in ten seconds and was coun ted
out. t." @a ..a.

ST. PAUL, Sept. 15.-[Special. 10. j
Erickson, probably of Demersville, Mont,
while enroute from Butte to this city, cut
his throat on Northern Pacific train near
Verndale. MINI. Erickson boarded the
train at station in the northern part Of
the state and soon after the train left
Wadena he entered the water closet and
locked the door. No one noticed it at the
time, but a few moments later loud noise
was heard coming from that part of the car.
The passengers thought there was some
fight going on in there SO with the assist
ance of the brakeman and conductor the
door was burst open and a horrible specta-
Gle met their eyes. Upon the floor Of the
car lay the Norwegian foundering about in
a pool of blood which was flowing copiously
from ghastly wound in the throat. 1t was
cut from ear to ear and the windpipe was
severed. On the floor by his side was a
large jack knife, which had evidently been
the instrument with which he had intended
self-d estruction. He cannot life.
