A Practical Judge.

~
When Senator Sanders of Montana
first settled in the wilds of the then
half-civilized West, the following Is
related of him: He was about the
only well-educated man in that State.
The miners and cowboys recognized
that fact, and elected him Judge. In
that capacity he soon became terror
to evil-doers, as he invariably i'm
posed the heaviest sentence prescribed
by law.
On one occasion a border ruffian was
brought before him on charge OF
assault and battery, entered plea OF
guilty, and was fined $40. The fellow
had a dangerous CLEAN in his eye as
he shambled forward, pulled bag
from his pocket, took from 1t two
double eagles, and laid them on the
bar before Judge Sanders. The Judge
showed one of the coins across the
counter, remarking:
you've made a mistake. Your
fine is S20."
Il know what my fine is" growled
the thug; "and i understand what
I'm doing. See? II it costs $40 t6
whip man in this court it's cheaI
enough, and I'm willing to pay fol
the fun. Just keep the other twenty
Judge; I'm going to thrash another
man."
"Very we'll, sir" quietly said Sand
ers, putting the coins into drawer
and turning the key.
"And you're the man I'm going Il
lick" continued the pugilistic pris
oner,, addressing the Court.
"As you please, sir" was the calm
response, as Sanders stepped from thu
bench.
The fellow made most savage on
slaught upon the Judge, but Sander
ducked, and before his antagonis
could recover his equilibrium he re
ceived a blow on the jugular which
sent him spinning half way across thu
room, where he fell as limp as rag
Two minutes later the erstwhil,
terror scrambled to his feet, looked
about the room in daZed manner
and slowly staggered toward the door
"Here, sir" Numbered Sanders, VIII,
had resumed his place upon tn
bench. "Come here"
The thug obeyed. Sanders slowl.
counted out $3.50, and showed
across the bar.
There's your change" he re
marked, grayely. "You didn't com

MN q Mlcrobe killer.

DR.. Freudenrich has found, by ex-
periments, that the cholera bacillus,
IL put into milk drawn fresh from
the cow, dies in an hour, and in five
hours II put into fresh goats milk.
The bacillus of typhoid fever takes
twentv-four hours to die in cows
milk, and five hours in goats milk.
Other microbes suffer like fate in
varying periods. But he has also
found that milk maintained for an
hour at a temperature OF 231 degrees
Fahrenheit, loses its power TO kill
micrebes-a statement which is OF
interest in the face OF the common
teaching which makes the puriflca-
ton OF milk depend upon its being
boiled Again, the bacterlcidal prop
critics of milk become weaker the
older it gets, for cows milk after
four days, and goats milk after five
days, ceases to have any effect upon
micro-organism.

routes batween these two cities were at
tackled, and the plague spread north and
south through the country districts. From
Herat 1t went northwest TO the holy city OF
Meshed. tho Mecca OF many Eastern prin-
CAPABILITIES. There its devastation was ter
rfble. For weeks the deaths averaged over
100 daily. It is still raging there, the last
reports being that IL was on the decrease,
the daily death roll having dropped TO
thirty-hve. Still westward the cholera
travelled in the wake OF the caravans. IL
attacked Sulvzabar and other towns. and In
few days II reached Asterabad. on the Cas-
plan sea. It's ravages here and In the
neighboring provinces were very great It's
appearance at Asterabad alarmed the Rus
sian authorities and all the Russian ports
on the Caspian were closely quarantined.
There IS a considerable trade between As
fterabad aud Astrakhan, at the month OF

Its Ravages In Russia.
In May the cholera crossed the Caspian.
in spite of all precautions, and invaded
Baku, Ru ssian seaport just south of the
Caucasus Mountains. II Is the great pc
troleum port OF the Caspian and filthy be-
yond description. The cholera was now In
Europe, and II spread rapidly. The author
titles, much alarmed, bent all their energies
toward keeping 1t from Astrakhan, the port
at the mouth Of the Volga But they were
unsuccessful The cable reported that the
Russians were too demoralized to carry out
the requirements of these schedules. About
the middle OF July a riot was accustomed in
Saratov by the report that the doctors In
the hospitals were burying cholera patients
alive
1t is reported that 10000 deaths from
cholera have occurred in Russia this sum-
n.er up TO date To that long roll OF NOR
tally should be added $4,000 In Persia. up

OF not a few cities in Germany and France.

the cholera germs Is destroyed by the adj

The most encouraging news received In

Russia is not sufficiently explicit to war

should be remembered that information

A Strange Custom.

A curious marriage custom is re
corded by DR.. Post as existing in
Southern India among some OF the
more primitive non-Aryan tribes.
This consists OF wedding a girl to a
plant, a tree, an animal, or even an
inanimate object, the notion being
that any ill-luck which may follow an
actual marriage may be averted by q
union OF this kind.

MAJOR JOHN d. WoR9IAN, secretary OF
the Democratic societies of Pennsyl-
vania, has issued the following address to
the Democratic societies of the state:
The Democratic societies impatiently
awaits the coming of the battle. Its
members believe in the success, the
glory and the grand destiny of our great
Keystone State.
The Democratic society of Pennsyl-
wanna was not founded for a single mis-
sion, which accomplished, leftit drifting
with no fixed star of principle to guide
it.
The influence of the past speaks to us
in the voice of the present. 1t fights
for measures, not men; the principles of
government, not mems character, are to
be discussed; nations policy, not per
sonal ambition, is to be determined.
We enter the fight with living faith
founded upon principles that are just,
enduring as old as the nation itself, yet
ever young, vigorous and progressive
because there is ever work for it to do
Its greatest good, its highest glory, /:
that it Is, and is to be the people party

An Engineering ImpOssibIliiy.

The floods in the west have not been
so destructive of human life as was the
sudden downpour that swept over fated
JOhnstOwn, IN this state, but the destruc-
ton of property has been greater than
even in that terrific visitation. The
worst feature of this form of calamity is
the inability to provide against it and
the certainty of future visitations Of even
greater severity. As the population
shall increase along the river courses,
and the forests be cut away upon the
headwaters of tributary streams, the bulk
of life and property to be destroyed and
the volume of water from melting SHOWS
and protracted rainfall will alike contri-
butte to make disaster more appalling
1t does not seem to be an engineering
possibility to confine the waters of such
great streams as the Missouri and Mis-
sissippi within their banks.-Phiia. Rec

THE Republican Senators, says the
New York UorId, are determined to pre-
vent, if possible, vote upon any of the
tariff reform bills passed 10y the House.
Their excuse is that 1.-THE whole tariff
question was thoroughly discussed two
years ago"
The tariff was, indeed, thoroughly
discussed two years ago, and the people
condemned the outrageous impoSitions
Of the Mckinley bill 10y more than l.,
500, 900 majority. 1t was discussed
again last year in the three debatable
and typical states of New York, Massa-
chusetts and Iowa, and the voters re-
peated their verdict in favorof the Demo
crats and tariff reduction.
For the Republicans Senators to re-
fuse even 4 vote on the relief bills passed
by the peoples representatives now Is
defiance and notification of the popular
will
No doubt the fear that all their sena-
tors cannot be trusted to vote against
some Of the bills leads the majority to
choose the policy of smothering them.
But, whatever the motive, the duty and
the opportunity of the Democrats in
Congress are plain. They should send
to the Senate a sufficient number of tax
reduction bills to make perfectly plain
the Democratic policy and purpose.
They could ask no better issue for the
national campaign than will be created
by a Republican refusal even to consider
bills to reduce the worse than war taxes
! upon the necessaries of the people.

Another Vanderbilt Dead.

William II. Vanderbilt, aged 81, son
of Cornelius Vanderbilt, died last night
from the effects of hOmorrhages brought
on by typhus fever. He was taken i'll
on May at New Haven, Conn, at the
time very seriously. As there was no
typhus fever in New Haven at that time
it is supposed he contracted the disease
while on trip through the Western
states about the Easter holidays
The deceased inherited by the will of
his grandfather, William H. Vanderbilt
$1,000, 600, the income to I've converted
to his use when he attained his majority,
the principal to be placed to his credit
when he became so years of age. He
was the only one of the grandchildren of
William II. Vanderbilt mentioned In his
will. The deceased was one of the most
popular men in the junior class of Yale
College.
