STORIES or THE DAY.
The ono ThIng NeedfuI.


A good story is told at the expense Of
West side saloon keeper He was
having some repairs made at his house
Two men we're employed One was a
carpenter, He was employed In the
second story. The other was plumber.
He was fixing the pipes Of the pumps
used for running ale and beer from the
cellar to the bar room. Both of them
loved the thing that biteth like serpent
and stingeth like an adder.
While the plumber was at work down
the cellar be became excessively thirsty
A happy thought atruck him He dis
jointed the beer pump and put in An at
tachment with nozzle In the cellar
He then went upstairs and approaching
the carpenter asked:
"Do you want good drlnkf"
you bet | do am SO dry that | am
splitting dust. "
well come down the cellar and will
give you good one
They reached the cellar unobserved,
The plumber held a tin can to the
nozzle and yelled up the pipe;
"Hellol Gilhooley, pull up on the
pump
Thinking such a thing necessary fol
the repairs that were being made
Gilhooley pulled up the pump. The
liquor flowed freely through the attach
ment in the cellar. They drank il, anc
ever and anon the plumber would
yell:
"Hellol Gilhooley Pull up on the
pump"
At last they became intoxicated. They
staggered up the cellar steps and con
fronted the astonished saloon keeper who
could not understand matters until he
went down into the cellar and saw the
ingenious contrivance the plumber hsd
invented to treat his friend ani himself
to frst-class drunk

A dispatch from Lansing states that
the Democratic moguls are not satisfied
with the fighting qualities of the Detroit
Free Press. 1t is too honest at times to
suit their fancy, and they have decided
to start penny morning paper in De-
troit that will be Bourbon from the
headlines to the last advertisement on
the last page. Col. Sanford, of Lansing,
is talked of as editor, and Dickinson,
Burt and Weston are behind the scheme
with their dollars.
The citizens of Detroit have assured
the success of the silver encampment OF
the q. A. Il. in that city the first week
in August beyond peradventure. This
has been done by the subscription of
citizens of $4,000 to date, with other
subscriptions coming in daily. Over
two hundred brigade and regimental
organizations have been assigned free
quarters for the holding of their indi-
vidual reunions and campfres. Lead
ing citizens from all over the country
are expected to participate in the re-
union, and from data now at hand it is
believed that fully ZOO veterans and
their friends will be in the city on the
day of the grand parade.

The Koch Lymph and Typhoid Fever.

A comparison of the natural course of
typhoid fever with the process of cure
of lupus, as described by Koch, shows
many striking points of resemblance.
The lupus extends because the tissue in
which the tubercle bacilli are developed
is not sharply limited, as in the case of the
intestinal glands. The poison generated
by the tubercle bacilli in lupus is not taken
in quantity into the blood, and there is
no elevation in body heat, or reaction,
such as occurs in pulmonary tuber-
culosis. Heretofore the disease has fire.
quently been cured by removing the dis
eased tissues or by destroying the bacilli
by external applications. Following the
injection there is a strong constitutional
reaction, and the affected parts appar-
emily become inhamed, as do the affected
parts in the early stages of typhoid
fever. The diseased tissue then becomes
"brownish and necrotic." This also oc-
ours in typhoid fever. The necrotic It's
sue is then thrown off, leaving healthy
ulcer which promptly heals. The same
process takes place in typhoid fever

A terrible tornado struck the city of
Baton Rouge La, little after o'clock
Monday morning, passing from the
southwest to northeast. Ten convicts
in the penitentiary were killed and
thirty-five were injured. The cyclone
entered the city at the Garig Brick
Yard, passed up through Catfshtown,
and struck the hill just east of Mr.. John
Johnson's residence. It's path continu-
ed in northeasterly direction, cross
ing North boulevard 100 yards to the
east of the governors mansion. 1t
then went north striking the peniten
tiary building and the j. A. Dougherty
residence, on North street, and thence
beyond the city. The cyclone was 300
yards wide, and riccocheted along its
course like cannon ball, devastating
as it went. In the city no one was
killed, though several persons were Sc
riously injured. The penitentiary is
partially wrecked.
