DANGER IN A WALKING STICK.

An Engiish Physician Has Discovered a
New Disease That Attacks Men.
Az medical man with fairly large
practice ] meet with and treat cases
which cover q very wide ground. But
never until last night have met with q
case the trouble and very probable suf-
fering from which may be distinctly
traced to the carrying of a walking stick
A man came to see me who had COM
pleted weeks walking tour in Devon
shire. He looked we'll and healthy. There
was no mistake about that, but his left
arm was almost numb, the muscles were
contracted, and it was with great trouble
and evident pain he lifted it from his
side. 1t puzzled mo at first His right
arm was all right, but on examining it
noticed the skin on the hand was peel
ing of, while his left hand had no sign
whatever Of this.
"Been boating" asked.
No, he had not been boating. Then
suddenly caught sight Of walking stick
resting by the side of his chair, and
which he had brought into the room.
The secret Of it all was soon out then--a
very simple secret. It was q thick and
heavy stick weighing quite pound. He
had carried that In the right hand for a
whole week, while he admitted that his
left hand generally occupied his trousers
pocket. The constant using of the stick
had worn the skin away. while the car
rying Of it-not having been equally bal
anced between the two hands - had
caused the one not thus exercised to be-
come stiff and positively useless for the
time being.
A walking stick, to my mind, is not
the most desirable thing. Still sup
pose they will always be carried, but
would warn those who carry them to
excess. Sticks should be avoided with
plated tops. Either they should be of
silver or gold or some perfectly pure
metal, or, better still, only tho polished
top Of the natural stick should come into
contact with the flesh Of the hand, which
often-as in the case of clerks and those
not occupied in manual labor-is as ten
der and susceptible to disease as any part
Of the body. A glove might, however,
overcome this difficulty.
linen as 10 tne weight or the stick. 1t
is only reasonable to suppose that too
great drag on the muscles is not cal
culated to improve them. Stretching
the muscles in this manner is far from
advisable. A man should carry stick
in proportion to his own weight, and
stick from to 10 ounces will be found
as good as any.
But the great danger appears to me
to be that Of constantly carrying this
wooden companion in the same hand. ]
may be called faddist. an old woman
among medicos, and the like, but here
Ihave just had a practical proof of the
difficulty which does arise from this
practice. It means a certain amount of
pleasant labor to the hand and arm to
carry stick, and in this labor-more
particularly when the stick is carried
for any length Of time, as in the case
have just quoted-the work Of the hands
and arms should be fairly divided.
know this view will be severely ques-
toned, but let any who have their
doubts just set out and carry stick Of
the same weight my patient did for only
o few hours and note the result.-Lon-

The Worst Storm Since 1s6S-Damage
by Wind and Flood.
BALTIMORE, Aug. 29.-Not since the
great food Of 1868 has such storm
bsen experienced in Baltimore as that
of last night. The wind blew = furious
gale all afternoon, and in the evening
rain began falling in torrents and did
mot cease until morning. Roofs and
chimneys were torn off; much glass was
smashed; telegraph and telephone
wires were wrecked and the electric
lights went out. leaving the greater part
of the city in darkness. On the bay,
mountainous seas piled and rolled high
In the basin, spreading over the walls
and flooding the streets and ada
cent buildings. This morning the streets
resemble lagoons, instead OF business
thoroughfares. The wharves were COM
pletely submerged and some portions
destroyed. Several schooners were
washed high and dry on the streets.
The warehouses along the water front
suffered damages aggregating many
thousands of dollars. A southeast gale
prevented the waters from receding
until noon today. to which time business
was practically at standstill in the
flooded districts.
Incoming vessels report severe expert
ences.
Dispatches from Annapolis state that
great damage was done around the
wharves and to shipping.
In Elkton the river was beaten back
by terrific gale until the water flooded
the streets, great damage being done
thereby.
In the Cumberland valley great dam
age was done to property and growing
crops.

New York merchapts raceived : hint
that somsthing ominous wos happening
ln Brazil and Nicaragua fully ~ hours
before The newspapdrs pubhshed their
dispatches announcing those countries,
TO DO in state Of revolution. When
they presented messages at the cable
offlces to be transmitted to their corre-
spondents In the respective countries,
they were informed In the case of Bra
I'll that cipher or secret messages were
prohibited, and In the case Of Nicaragua
that telegraphic communication with
pertain provinces was stopped by the au-
thorities.
These two countries operate land tele-
graphs as an adjunct to their postal sys-
TENS, and where connection is made with
foreign telegraph company an agent is
maintained 10 collect the government
tax. This agent in emergencies becomes
censor, and messages not viseed by him
are suppressed. Sometimes notice is
given to the sender that his message has
been suppressed. More often, however.
no notice at all is given.
The notices these agents promulgate
are official, contain bare facts relating to
telegraph traffic alone and are not en-
bellished by single word of explana-
ton. For instance. the Brazilian notice
referred to simply said, 1.-THE employ
ment Of cipher or secret language tele-
grams is temporarily suspended"
It is the duty of the connecting COM
pany receiving such notice to forward
it forthwith to Bern, Switzerland, the
headquarters Of all International tele-
graph companies, where the notice of in
terruption, suspension Of privileges or
whatever happens is instantly sent to ev-

In the United States and other
countries a system regarding news
papers is in vogue in the postal SER
vice which is needed in the Hawai-
ian Islands. When newspaper is
no longer called for, either from the
death, departure or discontinuance
of the subscriber, the post Office Of
delivery notifies the publisher by
card or letter, giving the reason for
returning the paper. In this coun-
try occasionally a country post
master will return a paper marked
with the reason, but the practice is
not by any means so generally OBJ
served as it would be if the post
masters We're made responsible foG
its observance. Lately subscriber

the time for which the paper was
paid had passed some months, the
name of the subscriber was struck off
in the regular revision of the mail
ing list. 1t was only a few weeks
thereafter that note was received
from another person, asking that
the paper be continued to his own

An objection has been made to
our use of the phrase, fresh Japa
nese demands" in a late reference
to the plantation labor question. 1t
is claimed that the original contracts
gave japanese laborers free transit
from HakOdate to Yokohama. on the
other side, and from Honolulu to
the plantation, on this side of the
sea. Sugar was high when those
contracts were made, however, and
when the market fell, Japanese were
quite willing to come and have tho
cost of those transfers taken out of
their wages. The demand through
the Hawaiian legation at Yokohama,
that these concessions should now
be revoked, is considered unreason-
able by the planters while they have
to pay $50 head for the passage Of
the laborers from Yokohama to Ho-
nolulu. When the owners of the
Japanese steamers that bring the
laborers here get from $4,000 to
100000 gross for each shipload, the
planters naturally think that the
japanese Government should look
nearer home for further concessions
in the interest of their emigrants to
