"When my son was seven years old he
began to complain of soreness In his right
leg. A white swelling soon appeared just
below the knee joint, and extended from
the knee to the ankle. At the same time
he was taken with an attack Of fever,
which was broken up, but the leg became
very badly swollen, causing him great
suffering, and the muscles so contracted
that his leg was drawn up at right angles.
He was unable to walk, could not even
bear to be handled, and l thought him a
Confirmed Cripple.
"After time we had the swelling
1anced, midway between the knee and tho
ankle, and it would discharge over pint
of pus at times decided to take him to
Cincinnati to have the leg operated upon,
expecting he would lose it. But he had
become 50 poor and weak that thought
would let him gather some strength, if
possible, and bought bottle of Hoods
Barsaparilla and began giving 1t to him.
This medicine soon woke up his appetite,

properly of the Terminal Company for
the year 1891 and years prior thereto, it
being insisted that the Council had no
more right to accept the 10,0O0in COM
mutation of the amount due for unpaid
taxes than it had to pass the original
ordinance exempting the company. 1t
was claimed that the amount for which
the Terminal Company was thus liable
was $4,000 in round numbers.
The court by its decision refused TO grant
the order asked for, decided that the council
had obcycd its mandate by making Il levy
for the year in which their decision WAS rem
dered. and further declare that the town
council under its charter had, further, 10
authority under the law to levy taxe: upon
property which had not been assessed there
having in this case been no assessment by tn
town authorities of the property of th, c1in-
pany during the years alluded to. This de-
cision does not pass upon the question of ~
quring the town of West Point to pay back
to the railroad company the SUN of $1,000

The Court also rendered an opinion
in the case Of Whiting and others
against the town of West Point and the
Richmond and West Point Terminal
Company. This was q proceeding
growing out mandamus case of Whit
ney and others against the town of
West Point and the Terminal Company,
heretofore decided by the Supreme
Court, and which decision at the time
of its rendition excited great interest in
Virginia, because by it the ordinances
passed by various town councils en-
empting from municipal taxation any
species of property in their midst were
declared unconstitutional.
Upon the delivery of this opinion the
Town Council of West Eo,nt assessed
,9lc property OF the Terminal Company
for the year 1892, in which year the
opinion was rendered, snd the town
taxes for that year, amounting to
s.. .96G, were paid by the company.
1t was then insisted by q number of
citizens of West Point that the property
of the Terminal Company, the York
River Railway Company, the Electric.
light Company, the Aiasoaic Hal; aud,
IN fact, all'property ofthe town, was Ii.
able to taxation during all the preced-
ing years in which none had bsen paid
in consequence of the ordinance passed
eEempting them. Counsel for the rail
way company oombatted the right Of
the town TO levy and collect taxes for
these anterior years, but in order to
avoid litigation the sum of $4,000 was
paid the town in settlement OF all such
claims againsu eltnel the Terminal
Company or the York-River Railway
Company.
Tothis settlement objection was made
by certain OF the citizens and proceed
ings were instituted to compel the Coun-
Gil Of West Point to levy taxes upon the

Kitten by a Mad Dog.

Mr. Hyrum McCosnor, of Mesa, will start this evening for Chicago with his 7year-old son, LeRoy, to have him treated for hydrophobia. The boy was bitten by dog several days ago, while playing with some other little boys, but as the dog did not show any signs oi rabies, not much attention was paid to it further than to tie up the cur and await developments. The dog began to show signs of hydrophobia the next day, which continued to grow more malig' nant until its death yesterday morning. An ordinance was passed some time ago to have all the dogs running loose kill ed and the marshal should see that it is carried out

LOST ATLANTIS NOT A MYTH.
A Toronto University Professor Believes It Was Really the American Continent.

Was Really the American Continent.
 Ignatius Donnelly finds supporter of his Atlantis theory in Sir Daniel Wilson, president of the University of Toronto, who declares, after a great deal of search, that the lost Atlantis was not a myth, but that it was really the continent of America. He accounts for its disappearance from view in diff ferentway, but that is merely incid ent- al. Donnellys theory, as summarized by the Milwaukee Journal, was that the land was submerged by some great volcanic upheaval and that from those who escaped to the continents of Europe and Asia came the tradition of the deluge. Sir Daniel rejects this explanation as being disproved by the fact that there are no traces of such volcanic action either on the continent or in the ocean bed. He believes that the ancient Egyptians, the most pro gressive and adventurous people of ancient times, discovered the conti- nent, but that in the decline both of their learning and power it became lost to view and existed at the time our knowledge of Egypt begins mere ly as a shadowy tradition. It is his opinion that traces of the Egyptians of those days are to be sought in the ruined cities of Central America whose origin has never been determined or even been made the basis of any reason able theory. Such discovery would furnish a substantial basis for the legend of the lost Atlantis, and the theory invests those wonderful ruins with new interest for the anti quarians.
