Mr.. JOHN S. WISE says he was in
duced to join the republican party by
the advice of General Lee. Leaving
out of view the remarkable fact that
General Lee died about twelve years
before Mr.. Wise changed his politics,
Mr.. Wise's words pc nuDless strange,
because when General Fitz Leelnform-
ed his uncle that General Longstreet
had Joined the republican party, the
General, by whose advice Mr.. Wise,
that is, according to Mr.. Wise, was in
duced to become republican, remark
ed: General Longstreet has made q
great mistake from which he will never
recover IS long as he lives" Nobody
ever impugned General Lees consist
ency, and his word was always held as
good as his bond.

THE Grand Army Gazette for April
raises its voice and cries aloud for the
purging of the pension rolls and the re-
moval therefrom of the names of the
"dead beats and bummers who, with
the assistance of the claim sharks,
gorge themselves at the public treasury
in the guise of pensioners for disabili-
ties acquired during the war" Any
other paper making this demand might
be called a "rebel' or ''copperhead
sheet" but the one referred to stands
in no such danger. Its very name es-
tablishes its loyalty beyond dispute.
And when such a paper makes such
demand, why should there be any hest
fancy in granting it by democratic
CONGRESS?

THE VIRGINIA LIQUOR LAVA few
days ago the licenses of several liquor
dealers in Richmond and Norfolk were
cancelled. Even where there was a
license to run restaurant in connec-
ton with bar, both licenses were
withdrawn. The bar-keepers appealed
from the judges decision and the cases
were brought up before Judge Brooks.
He decided that where persons Ii
cense has been revoked for cause, the
license can be transferred to friend,
who may legally carry on the business.
Ofcourse there must be sale OF some
sort. This places the former proprietor
in the relation Of silent partner. In
reality it is still his individual business.
The only change is simply change OF
name.

RARE MEDICAL CAsEs.-The removal
of two tape worms of different species
from the same person is rare opera
ton. Two such cases have come under
the eye of DR.. John Ego, OF Reading,
Pa, within eight months. One patient
was Oliver Walter, cook, employed
on west Third street, Reading, and the
o,hei. was girl at Schuylkill Haven.
DR.. Eye says there are only two kinds
of tape worm in this country, one orig
mating from pork and the other from
beef. 1t often happens that two or
more of the beef variety, or several OF
the pork species, are found in one pa
tient. but it is an almost unhcard of
thing that one beef and one pork worm
should dwell together, as in these two
cases cited by DR.. Eye.
Beef or pork that is eaten when cook
ed rare produces these parasites. The
beef variety attains length of from 10
to Is feet aud contains from $4,000 to
$4,000 joints. The pork variety grows
to be eight feet long and has about $50
joints.
The fact has been established beyond
doubt that the tape worm, which is
male and female in itself, cannot repro
duce itself directly in the human sys-
TEN, requiring for its generation the
agency of beef or pork.
In Europe there is a third species, or
fish worm. In some seaport towns OF
Europe one out of every five persons is
afflicted with the pests. This is due to
poorly cooked food and to uncleanli-
ness. The old method of starving the
patient to destroy the parasite has been
abandoned and now the removal OF
one is a matter of two or three hours.
