THE TWO BROTHERS.


Long Lost to Each Other They Drift To-
gether at Newport, RI.
From the Newport News.
Thirty or forty years ago two boys were born
Of slave mother in the city Of New Orleans
They grew and prospered as other boys of their
kind did until the breaking out Of the war,
when both gained their liberty and entered the
service Of the Union, one as a sailor and the
other in the infantry. The boys we-o thus
separated and neither knew whether the othe.
were living or dead. One, Joseph Michel,
came to Newport some years since and has sup
ported himself and family by doing odd jobs
Recently the brother, Eugene Louis, also came
to Newport and. strange to say, hired tene-
ment in the house Of his long-lost ami unknown
brother. The two went in and out OF the same
door daily for months. until one day a neigh
Dor suggested to Louis that Michel was also
born in New Orleans and the two ought to be-
come better acquainted.
Louis saw reason in that fact why he should
trouble himself, as New Orleans was big
place and MANY children beside himself were
born there. However. one day he did speak to
Michel and mentioned the coincidence of the
same place of nativity. Each asked the other
If he knew certain people there, and, when the
name OF the master and mother were men
toned, their kinship was discovered. Louis
told his brother Of the death of their mother,
Louiza Herrin, soon after the close of the war;
and the two are now trying to find third
brother, whom they have reason to suspect is
living in Providence. The two are now close
companions and the case forms another romance
Of the war.

its evolution.
have had conversation with him. DR.. Tes-
sier began his sojourn in st. Petersburg, where
he stayed for some time. He also went to Mos
COW, Kiev and Warsaw. Scientists in all these
cities readily gave him information. He was
struck with the closeness of diagnosis as shown
in the hospital and other medical reports which
they showed him. He found that influenza is
a growth Of Russian soil. and when not raging
malady is a smoldering one.
The way the people live in winter, locked up
in heated houses. the fairness of the soil its
consequent bad drainage and universally sod
den condition when the April thaw begins; the
flthiness Of the farmyards the village streets
and in falling leave a putrid mud behind, all
conduce to make influenza epidemic. Its
microbe is in fact to be found in this mud.
DR.. Tester calls it a strepso-bacillus.
What is peculiar in this disease is the alli-
ance with this bacillus of pneumococcus, which
also lives in Russian marshes, river mud and
village pools. The strepsococcus first gets hold
OF the human organism and then the pneu-
mococcus enters like camp followers behind
an army. 1t lodges in the chest and shows its
presence in pleurisy and pneumonia. DR..
Tester does not believe the dengue fever is
identical with influenza, though they resemble
They are both infectious and contagious and
are best propagated when the air is warm and
moist and the barometer low.

A young man who seemed to stand very much
in need of Q clean shirt and collar, walked
briskly into Chinese laundry in Yorkville,
and, presenting to the head Waterman q
ticket bearing the well-known hieroglyphics
he said laconically:
"Gimme them"
The Chinaman scrutinized the ticket care
fully to assure himself, possibly, that his Gus
toner hadn't forged 1t, and, after passing @

and, extracting small parcel from closely
built wall Of similar bundles, he gave it to the
young man.
