Salts for Cholera.

A. correspondent of the New York
TIMES says:
Several years ago read in scientific
paper statement that in bodies of per-
sons that had died of cholera, yellow or
typhoid fevers, there was found lack of
chlorides in the blood. This suggested
the following: Should not the lack of
chlorides in the system make it easier
for those scourges to take hold? Com
mon salt-chloride Of sodium-"keeps"
meat and other things by meansof pre-
venting the growth Of the germs of pu-
trefactive fermentation.
During the heated term people perspire
much, and evory drop of perspiration
takes salt out of the system. In the hot
seasons these ecourges are most virulent.
I have acted on this theory ever since I
read the statement, in summer COM
plants and cholera morbus, with decided
and immediate success in every case.
I take tumblerful of water, add a tea
spoonful of raw corn starch and tea
spoonful or two Of common table salt,
stir well, and drink it as much and as Of
ten as T can without causing nausea. The
taste OF salt is not ugly when the system
needs salt. I have tried this more than
hundred times in cases Of summer
diarrhoea and cholera morbus with in
variable, prompt success.

was some time before We could hear any
thing. When ne recovered little such
sounds as did greet our ears Halfa
dozen wild horses couldn't have made any
mora noise than that snake was making.
We could hear it leap away up against the
walls and fall and twist and writhe, lash.
ing shout with its tail and knocking down
everything in the room. At the same
time the air became go heavy with the
rank, poisonous odor the reptile emitted
that both Of us turned deathly sick and
Jack began vomiting.
"At last while the snake was beating
against the walls on the ether side of
the room, I opened the door little way,
reached out in the dark and found the
candle. had one last match in my
pocket. If it:should go out I thought it
was sllup with US, for / was quite sure
we couldn't live till morning in that clos
ct. But fortunately the match was a
good one and I made light, thrust it
out into the room and viewed the wreck
Coiling, twisting and throwing himself
about in his mad agony, the huge snake
had possession of the place. Walls,
floor and everything else were covered
with his blood and the odor vas simply
horrible. Just as,I looked out he had
got himself coiled around a'stout oaken
chair, aud with q tightening of the coils
the chair was Splintered. I incautious-
ly opened the door little too far, and
he hurled himself at me. had barely
time to pull the door shut when be
struck it. And then got Jack to bold
the light while I watched the suake's
motions, took careful aim audfred. That
SHOT finished him. He struggled
and wriggled blindly all over the room
for minute or two, but finally straight
ened himself and lay still. And then
Jack and I crswled out of that closet
more dead than alive, and Jack lit q
candle and asked me if his hair wasn't
gray. And then there was the sequel,
for the old herb gatherer was meyer seen
again. When we found that be had real.
ly disappeared, Jack and I looked at one
another and cold chills ran over US, fol
we felt as confident then as I do now
thatthe huge snake on some previous
visit had killed and devoured the help

another meal when he dropped himself
dounfrom that hole in the roof. No, we
did not look for any more game on that
trip. Thatione hunt in the night and in
the dark was enough for one time"

DEPARTMENT OF STATE, WASHINGTON,

spectfully beg leave to submit my resIg-
nation of the office of Secretary of State
of the United States, to which | was APP
pointed by you on the 9Th of March,
1889
The condition of public affairs in the
Department of State justifies me in re-
qupsting that my resignation may be ac-
cepted Immediately. l have the honor

servant, JAMES G. BLAINE
EXECUTIVE MANSION, WASHINGTON.
June 4, 1892.-To the Secretary of State {:
Your letter of this date. rendering your
resignation of the office of Secretary of
State of the United States, has been re-
ceived. The terms in which you state
choice but to accede. to your wishes at
once
Your resignation is therefore accepted.
Very respectfully yours,
-. BENJAMIN HARRISON.
Hon. James G. Blaine.
Secretary Blaine's resignation was
taken to the White House by his private
secretary, Mr.. Dent, who placed it in the
hands of the President. This was little
before 1 o'clock on Saturday last, and
within fifteen minutes after it was writ
ten.
Soon after reading it the President de-
scended to the East Room and held his
usual Saturday afternoon reception to
the public. There were about 200 people
present, not one of VIII I'M as he shook the
Presidents hand could have told from
his cool and collected manner that any
thing unusual had happened. Indeed an
official of the Mansion said the President
really seemed to be in better spirits than
usual and made felicitous replies to the
greetings of some of his visitors.
The reception over, the President re-
turned TO his library and addressed let
ter to Mr.. Blaine accepting his resigna-
ton. This as given to Private Secre-
tary Halford, with instructions that it
he delivered at once, and Mr.. Halford
thereupon took it over to Mr.. Blaine's
house and placed it in his hands.
Thus the whole transaction did not
consume more than an hours time.
Various reports have been given out in
press dispatches of alleged interviews
with Mr. Blaine, explaining his resigna-
ton, but in published card the ex-
Secretary denounces all such reports as
absolute falsehOods. The truth is that
MIR. Blaine has refused himself to all in
quiries after the motive of his action.
Mr.. Blaine and family left Washing
ton on Tuesday, the 7th inst, for Ban
Harbor, Maine.

NATIONAL CAPITAL AFFAIRS.
Late News at the Seat of Government.
The Week in Congress.

The Week in Congress.
Comparatively little work was done in
Congress during the past week owing to
the excitement accompanying and fol-
lowing the Minneapolis convention. The
absenteeism in the Senate was especially
conspicuous. Much of the time was
taken up in making speeches. Senator
Dolph, of Oregon, discussed the question
of irrigation and reclamation of arid
lands. Senator Call, of Fla, delivered a
philippe against railroad interference
with the election of United States Sena.
tors. The Senate passed the urgent de.
ficiency bill, appropriating nearly S., ,OO0,-
900. The legislative and agricultural
appropriation bills were referred to the
appropriate committees, and the House
bill to admit Arizona and New Mexico az
States was sent to the committee on ter
ritories. Silver speeches were made by
Mr. Morgan, of Alabama, and Mr. Jones,
of Arkansas. The anti-option bill was
received and laid on the table. The
most important action of the House was
in passing the anti-OptiOn bill. The bill
to forfeit lands granted to aid in the
construction of railroads was considered
and laid aside. The agricultural appro.
priation bill was given final considera-
ton and passed. Various measures were
passed amending the statutes, including
the bill to dispense with proof of loyalty
during the cival war as a requisite to be-
ing restored or admitted to the pension
roll (applying to a few survivors of the
war of 1879, and the bill defining MUIR
der and manslaughters in places and on
waters under the exclusive jurisdiction
of the United States. The House COM
mittee on interstate aid foreign COM
merce adopted the report of the sub
committee of five, recommending that
an investigation be made into the Read
ing Railroad deal.-The pension ap-
preparation bill was reported to the Sen
ate from the committee on appropria-
tions. 1t carries total of $145, ,737, $50,
which is an increase of $11, 912, 1884 over
the House bill The bill, as reported,
exceeds that of last year $11 ,522 ,565.-
Mr.. Peffer's Farmers Alliance currency
bill was taken up in the Senate, and was
made the text of two hours speech.
1t went over. The silver bill occupied
the attention of the Senate on Tuesday
and Wednesday, speeches being made by
Senators Morgan and Mcpherson.

Notes..

Mrs. Harrison's health is improving,
and she is able to walk from one room to
another.
Ten members of the House committee
on military affairs, accompanied by the
Government historian, Bachelor, are
examining the Gettysburg battlefield
this week for the purpose of locating the
lines of General Lees army.
The Department of Agriculture re.
ports that the amount of American corn
imported into GaiEs@manIyys (dlI22Eing the guar
ter ending March 81 was nearly 5,00O,-
600 bushels greater than during the cor
responding quarter of last year.
A bulletin issued by the Department
of Agriculture states the acreage of win
ter wheat to be 99.9 per cent of the
actual area of last year; spring wheat,
1908 per cent; rye, S92 per cent of last
years breadth, and oats, 49, per cent.
A rumor that the retirement of Secre-
tary Blaine would probably result in the
return of Senor Montt as Chilian Minis
ter is not believed at Washington. The
disagreement between the two was a
question as to the details of personal ne
gotiation.
A cotton crop report issued by the Ag-
rlcultural Department, states that the
average percentage of area in compari-
son with the actual acreage of last year
is 835. The average condition of the
crop was 85 9-the lowest average, with
one exception, since 1874.
When asked as to the truth of the New
York Times report that he had with
drawn from the contest for the Presiden-
tial nomination, Senator Hill said: "On
the eve of National Convention do
not propose personally either to admit or
deny any sensational canard which may
be circulated by political enemies l
have nothing to saw"
