There grew flower In Babylon
Whose perfume makes young lovers weep
On II Assyrian moonlight shone;
Euphrates murmured II TO sleep.
It brings BACK old forgotten dreams;
Its petals breathe q dead loves kiss.
Astarte bathed II in her beams
In the gardens of 6emiramis.
But Egypt has sweeter bloom
The lotus of forgetful breath;
swathed and cmbalmed In spiced gloom,
The sad Nile sobbcd its dreams to death.
II soothes remembered loves to rest
As quiet as deaths waxen lid.
They laid II on Nltocris' breast
Beneath her silent pyramid.

going about her household business
when she happened to approach the lit

horror saw line of mottled green anu
black nestled close to the form of tho
peacefully sleeping little one. The ugly
head was raised and resting on the child's
arm with its eyes keeping drowsy watch
over it.
The mother sank nearly fainting on
the floor, but with parents bravery
realized that the snake must be dis.

speed, SO, arming herself with a pistol
belonging to her husband, she bent over
the cradle and with one rapid gesture
laid hold Of the snake by the end of its
tail and as suddenly gave II n jerk which
landed it on the floor. The creature
made at her with uplifted head, sound

to her feet. But, aiming steadily, sht
put ball through its body, and al
though it again tried to attack her sht
fired again and again and succeeded il

NEW YORK, Sept. 1e.-A London dispatch
says: Among tho subjects which were
scheduled for consideration at the interna-
tional medical congress called to assemble in
Rome next month, but tho indefinite post
ponement Of which has just been announced,
was the treatment Of the cure Of consumption
discovered by DIR. Amick Of the United States,
which 10 attracting great attention among the
medical fraternity Of England and eontinen-
tai countries. In its current Issue leading
medical journal says that - . result Of the
postponement Of the congress q party Of
prominent physicians Of England, France
and Germany will leave for tho United
states the last week of September, and after
q brief visit to the Worlds Fair, will proceed
to Cincinnati for tho purpose Of personally
interviewing the discoverer. Some Of the
English physicians concerned and who, like
the majority Of their profession, arc inclined
to regard any new discovery hailing from the
United States - open TO suspicion Of auack-
cry, some months ago induced one Of the
largest Wholesale drug houses in the mctropo-
lis to enter into correspondence with DR..
Amick with the alleged view of becoming the
British agents for his medicines. Their guns
were spiked, however, by the receipt last
week Of letter to tho eject that he corres-
ponded only with registered practicing ply
sicians and that his discovery could not be
put on the market for indiscriminate sale.
At meeting of the Paris clinic OF physicians
last week one Of the speakers coupled Amick's
name with Pasteur's as benefactor Of the
human race, and paid . high tribute to the
medical profession In the United States.

LOSS OF LIFE IN SPAIN.

Great Numbers OF Persons Drowned In
tho Province Of Toledo.
The province of Toledo has been swept BY
violent storms, and much damage has been
done to property. Large tracts of country
have been flooded and many lives have been
lost. Fifty corpses have been, 30 far, reoov-
cred. In addition, many people have been
more or less seriously injured.
At villacanas the death roll is said to be
appalling. The peasants, upon the rising Of
the waters, sought refuge in large and small
caves on the hillsides, and at night when all
were sleeping, the waters rose suddenly,
swept Into the caves And drowned the helpless
beings who had there sought safety from the
floods.
rying death and destruction In many dircc-
tlons, and the ManEures IL also flooded and
doing much damage.
Some small villages and groups Of houses
have been entirely washed away from tho
face Of the earth. Houses crumbled like
pasteboard before the rushing waters, and
those who In boats and RATS sought safety
from the delugs were either drowned or
crushed to death by pieces Of timber which
were carried like straw upon the waters.
Relief parties have been sent out from
Madrid and elsewhere, but in the most on
dangered places the railroad tracks are
either washed away or are under water SO deep
that trains cannot pass, and thus number
of villages are cut on from the outside world
with no hope of assistance, and death staring
their inhabitants in the face.
In one OF the villages only eight out Of
sixty-four people arc known to have escaped
the floods.

Chinese Being Dspor.sd.

The first Chinamen to have their sentences
Of deportation under tho Geary registration
act executed arrived In San Francisco from
Los Angeles on the 9th, and were confined in
the county jail until Tuesday when they were
sent back to the Celestial kingdom on tho
steamer China. There were i've Chinese In
the batch, and they were in charge Of United
States Marshal Gard.
The Chinese are all laborers and were ar
rested on warrants issued from the United
States court in Los Angeles. They were
taken before Judge Ross and by him sen
fenced to be deported, a. they had not COM
piled with the law requiring Chinese In the
United States to be registered.
News that these Chinese had arrived In the
city and would be placed on the steamer
leaving Tuesday created sensation All
through Chinxtown. The presidents Of the
Six Companies held conference at the con-
sui generals of{lce and number Of dis
patches passed between them and the Chinese
legation at Washington.
Those who pretend TO know say that the
Chinese arc preparing petition TO be sent 70
President Cleveland. The document will
place the blame Of the Chinese not register
ing heretofore upon the faith they gave their
American legal advisers, who assured them
that the Geary law could not stand. It viii
probably pray for an extension OF time In
which to allow them TO register.
