RATS AND RABIES,
Inc Brains of Dead Rodents Furnish the
Germs of Hydrophobia.


The latest development of disease
prevention and cure by incubation is
very remarkable indeed II has been
found that an exceedingly poisonous
substance can be extracted from the
brains of rats that have died o. hydro
phobla, which, when administered BY
injection to guinea pigs and rabbits,
produces immunity from rabies. OBJ
viousl y, it has not been considered
practicable to make this test with peo-
pie but it is generally admitted that
what applies in this way TO rabbits
and guinea pigs may apply to human
beiugs
Two Italian savants Profs. Tizzoni
and Cattani have recently isolated
germs OF locked jaw says the Washing
ton Star, and have not only rendered
guinea pigs and rabbits immune from
the disease by injecting a poison de-
rived from them but have cured six
human beings attacked by the COM
plant by means of inoculat n. As
is well known locked jaw has hitherto
been considered almost inevitably
fatal The germs of the disease seem
to be found in the surface soil so that
immense numbers of them may exist
in anybOdy's garden. Rats can be
given lockedJaw by simply mixing
little garden earth with their food.
That is The reason why rusty nail is
apt TO communicate the trouble. as is
commonly thought but a rusty nail is
a dirty one and presumably has been
lying on the ground. 1t has locked
jaw germs on it and they inoculate the
victim.
Such hurt in the palm of the hand
or the sole OF the foot is likely to pro-
duce the trouble because in either
place there is bundle of nerves. The
disease is one of the nervous system.
A regular hatchery for rabbits and
guinea pigs is maintained near Wash
ington by the bureau of animal indus
try, where these unfortunate victims
of science are raised in large numbers
for the purpose OF incubation with
unpleasant complaints. With the
same object in view many rats are
trapped wherever they can be caught.
1t is rough on them but in this way a
knowledge of methods for treating an
finals for hog colera and other distruc-
tive diseases is being obtained which
promises to effectively wipe out these
Affections within a very few years.
The germs of each disease produce a
special and peculiar poisoni cidentally
to feeding upon the tissues of the beast
attacked.
This poison is got in pure state by
an elaborate chemical process diluted
with water and injected with squirt
Koch's lymph is preparation of this
description. from consumption germs
All of these germs of bacteria of differ
ent Species microscopic vegetable
organisms, which act as destructive
parasites Likewise it is with the
germs which produce diphtheria
pneumonia, carbuncle cholera
typhoid fever &c They are all
studied diligently by science the world
over, and it is only a question of a
comparatively short time when their
operations will be to a great extent
successfully antagonized. Thus great
dangers to the health of mankind will
be removed or so far modified that
the average length of human life will
be much increased.

The ReIIgIon OF the BIaines.

Whether Mr.. Blaine is Presbyterian or
COngregationalist may be a question, but
there is no question that his family were
Catholics. We have the authority of one
who was born and grew up in Brownsville,
Fayette county, Pa, with Mr.. Blaine and
his brothers and sisters. His mother a
Gillespie, was of an old Catholic family.
His father was protestant, but several
years before his death became and re-
NAMED Catholic. He had four brothers,
Ephraim, Neil, Robert and John, and two
sisters, Mary and Eliza, all Catholics.
Eliza became the wife of Robert Walker,
a paymaster in the army and protestant; I;
but he turned Catholic through her mis-
sionary efforts. Two daughters of Mr.. and
Mrs. Walker became nuns. Of the Giles
pies, cousins of Mr.. Blaine, one, Father
Gillespie, was a Catholic priest and pro-
fessOr at NOtre Dame university; another
was superioress of the convent at Decatur,
Macon county, ILL.,, and third, Mother
Angela a nun also, became distinguished
as the author of the Metropolitan Read

mr, BIafne,s Health.

The subject of Mr.. Blaine's health is one
which is proper subject for consideration.
The silly, malignant stories of his not be-
ing equal mentally to what he was last
year would be disproved by any one who
comes in contract with him for a moment.
But it is an undisputed fact that Mr..
Blaine physically is not very strong, and
that he avoids as much as possible any un-
due mental or physical exertion. This is
proper and correct. 1t is on account of
this care that he has been free to call upon
those about him to help him. Those who
have helped him have not sought to de-
tract from his originality and from his abil-
ity; neither have they in turn sought for
themselves undue credit. 1t has been give
and take in the administration family up
to short time ago. All worked together
/ Mr.. Blaine is impulsive and, being human
is not always right. He has made one OF
two mistakes as secretary of state. His
mistakes are not fully understood by the
public. But if his presence is eliminated
/ from the administration the good and bad
will be brought out fully in the summary
of his record.-T. G. Crawford in the

THE IRISH QUESTION.
Gladstone is SOlicitOus Relative to

LoNDGN, June 22.-The Associated Press
is authorized to state that the conference
yesterday between Gladstone and the Nc
Carthyite leaders almost solely concerned
the proposals of Gladstone to extend guar
antees to the minorities under the proposed
new home rule. At the opening of the
conference Gladstone asked what the pros
poets were for reunion of the Irish par
liamentary party. He were told the pros
prospects were remote. He expressed no
great concern as to the result should that
end be not attained. He is hopeful Of
such a solid majority at the approaching
general elections that he believed the re-
turn of few so-called Independents will
not affect the issues. The statement that
Timothy Healy was present was errOne-

likely the proposals will be approved all

dlssolving the master steYedores associa-
ton for the accounting and for the order
that the property of the association be
sold and the profits divided between the
parties, plaintiff and defendant. This ac-
ton marks the disruption of the steve
dores' pool. 1t is alleged that various
parties named on July 25, 1886, formed an
association for the purpose of carrying on
the business Of stevedoring. The name of
this combine was "The Master SteYedores
association" There was a long written
agreement forbidding the cutting of rates
payment Of commissions and the like. Ali
accounts of the association were to be ad-
justed on the second Thursday of each
month, and the profits divided as follows:

The violation of the agreement was pun
ishable by fine of $1,000. 1t is alleged
that on December1 the defendants refused
to conform to the agreement.

over the silver plank. The outcome was a
majority report in favor of straddle Of
the question, and minority report of un-
compromising free coinage The vote
stood FIVE to three in favor of a straddle
It is said the free silver advocates will
carry the question into the convention,
with the likelihood of long debate, which
would prevent ballot being reached to-
night.
The opponents of the ex-president will
contest the effort to force a ballot, at every
point possible. The fact that conservative
leaders among those opposed to Cleveland
concede his nomination to be inevitable has
not sufficed to deter the Tammany leaders
from continuing the bitter war on the ex-
president, which they inaugurated on ar
riying here. 1t is not believed they will
continue the fight after the nomination,
but they will use strenuous efforts to com.
pass his defeat in the convention, and will
be used by them in case of defeat at the
polls next fall as evidence of their po-
litical sagaoity.
