ChfcuCO and the Poet.

From the Chicago News Record
a rapturous poet apostrophizes Chicago
as the "wondrous city by the damp, clear
lake" 1t is not every poet who would have
paused in his mad ecstasy to consider and
announce the important truth that the lake
is damp. But perhaps this poet has been in
the lake. Perhaps he has read poems to
people who we're near the lake at the time.

WILL PROTECT THEMSELVES.

1t is the age of protective Organiza-
ton. Even the professions are taking
refuge in them. Four hundred Brook
lyn physicians have organized what is
known as the Physicians Protective al.
lance. The object of this alliance is to
black list those patients who do not pay
| their doctors bill.
The means of protection that has been
adopted is list issued at intervals and
carefully corrected to date, containing
the names and address of those who on
account of nonpayment of fees for medi-
cal attendance are considered unworthy
of further credit. 1t is said that no ply
stefan who possesses one of these lists
will attend a sick person whose name
appears in the black bound pamphlet
with its thirty-two pages.
At the same time the physicians will
not allow their charitable work to De in
terfered with, only those being black
listed whose style of living justifies a
physician in expecting his fee. Doubt

physicians will see in this organization
something detrimental to public welfare.
Many have way of looking upon doc
tor as a sort Of public benefactor, W hose
business it is to find in virtue its own
reward. They regard a doctor who in
sists upon being paid as a human mon
ster who feeds upon miseries.
1t is no more than right that the ply
stefan should have some protection. He
labors night and day, he carries sense
Of responsibility that attaches to no other
profession, he must continue his studies
from year to year, and he must often
minister to those who can never give
him any reward. He is averse to litiga-
ton and as a general thing, would rather
lose bill than have a law suit II is
but just therefore, that he should avail
himself of popular mode of protection.
1t is mode which is subject to abuse,
but it is not likely that physicians will
exercise any of these abuses.

PUNISHMENT FOR PETTY CRIMINALS
A bill has been introduced in western
legislature which provides for reviving
the whipping post for Furnishing persons
guilty Of petty larceny. Such law
would doubtless be best in every state
In the north tramps steal some little arti
Gle in order to get in Jail during cold
weather. A whipping post would doubt
less have tendency to brighten such evil
doors.
Yet better thing than the whipping
post is what is called SOLDERING ma
chine" This simple continuance was in
use at Doylestown, Pa, about forty years
ago and the citizens are talking of intro
ducing it again. The machine was de
Vised because it was necessary, and it
consisted of the running gear of an ordi-
nary wagon with the hind wheels taken
off and box fastened to the axle. So.
briefly was the watchword of the half
dozen men who ran it. Whenever a
drunken man or woman was seen on the
'NN' WV hioChIIiO " as OlOuPul OuG. lie
victim was placed on the broad of his
back in the box. Then the command
was given and the occupant was run out
of town. 1t was seldom that a man got
a second dose of the soldering machine"
The tramps soon got to dread the ride of
a mile or so and they never returned
after the first experience The wife
beater Jared the same, and its influence
had salutary effect on this class of peo-
pie. The old inhabitants say that the
SOLDERING machine. of nearly half cen.
tury ago was much more effective than
the threats and violence of the White
Caps of the present day.

THE TELEGRAPH CUSS.

There have been several railroad
wrecks within month. This may call
for surprised comment from every one
except the telegraph editor. No tele.
graph editor in particular is referred to,
but telegraph editors in general. They
know the ways of the world if any one
does. Every night of the year the stream
OF human Vicissitudes flows under their
fingers, and they one and all have a
theory that fate has some curious tricks.
Perhaps it is because fate is governed by
three hays who keep up a deadly rivalry
that each catastrophe from which mortals
suffer must reach the number of three.
But whether or not that is true it is Ger
taln-Or the telegraph editor will tell
you that it is certain-that if train runs
oil the track, or rich mans daughter
elopes with a cOachman, or a love lorn
maid kills herself with rat poison, or a
clergyman goes mad, or lightning fires a
town, forthwith two other happenings
of the same sort occur.
1t may almost be said that great dis
asters plunge through time like comets,
and drag lesser satellites in their wake.
BE they floods, fires, wrecks at sea, earth
quakes, explosions, murders, marriages,
or any other form of disaster, they come
not alone, and he who reads the daily
papers carefully, will find warrant for the
superstition which might be called the
rule of three

The Reef Tea Fallacv,

One of the hardest notions for the un-
trained nurse to give up is that beef tea
is a valuable nutriment. The recent as
sertion of a writer in The American
Lancet that thousands of sick persons
have been starved to death on beef tea
is only summing up of what physicians
and expert nurses have been trying to
impress upon the minds of the laity for
some time.
Beef tea is stimulant, slight and
evanescent, but to ''live on beef tea
which has been the shibboleth Of many
a sickroom, is impossible And The
Lancet further counsels that if it must
still be, made and used to perform its
very limited service, to remember that,
like plain tea, it should never be boiled.
That method of making contributes
positive vice that of indigestibility.

MAN1sTEE, Mich, Oct. 17.-Nothing
has been heard of the steamer Henry
j. johnson, which had the lost schoon-
or Minnehaha in tow on Lake Michi-
gan Saturday. The last seen of the
steamer was when she passed Manistee
going south Saturday afternoon. Tel
egraphic inquiries at Ludington, Mus
kegon and other east shore ports showed
that she did not run into any of them.
It is evident that the storm was too
strong for the steamer to breast and
she was running before it. Captain
William Packer, the only survivor of
the Minnehaha, has arrived here with
the life-saving crew.

Lives Lost.

DUNK1RK, N. Y. Oct 17.-Up to I
o'clock p IN. nine bodies from the
wrecked Dean Richmond's crew, had
been recovered One is that of woman.
At present those identified are:
Frank Patton. A. B. Meadows, Wheel
man and Nudge the fireman. The
woman was identified as Ella Elsw worth.
It is believed the remainder of the
bodies are between here and Silver
Creek and tugs are out searching in
that vicinity It is now known that
not one of the entire crew escaped
death.
Among the bodies found were those
of Captain Stoddart and Mate Royles-
sen. The captains watch was stopped
at 1920 o'clock, showing that to have
been about the time the steamer went
down. In the mates pockets were
found all his papers, which indicates
that he knew there was no hope of saw
ing the steamer and had prepared to
leave her.
A lighter and pile driver are ashore
between here and Battery Point, and it
is supposed that the crew were drowned.
Nothing has been heard of them so far.
The condition of the bodies indicate
that the unfortunate seamen had not
been dead long, that they had prob.
ably been cast adrift some time
during the night and had been beaten
to death on the dangerous rocks that
abound in that part of the lake. Tho
wreckage is still being cast ashore and
it is believed the Richmond foundered
not more than three miles out in the
lake. 1t seems impossible that any one
Of the IL souls on board could have es-
capped alive. The Richmond was a
Clover Leaf boat and her crew were all
from Toledo. She was the first of the
larger steamers which mark the COM
ing of the present style of marine con-
structioH on the lake.
