Tobacco and Microbes.

DR.. Tassinari has published in the
Italia Termale the result of an investi-
cation into the effects of tobacco smoke
on microbes. He finds that the smoke
of the Cavour, Virginia and Tuscan CT
gars and all black and chopped tobaccos
possesses very pronounced bactericide
power, especially against the bacillus of
Asiatic cholera. This microbicide action
may in all probability be attributed to
the products of nicotine. In epidemics
of cholera and typhus the use of tobacco
may be rather useful than hurtful. To-
bacco smoke merits special consideration
on the hygiene of the mouth as a pro-
phylactic means of combating microbian
affections Of the buccal cavity.

POOR CROPS THE CAUSE.
A Wisconsin Farmer Murders His
Wife and Three Young Children.


Wife and Three Young Children.
AMIGO, Wis, Aug. 2.-William
Nonemacher, farmer living nine
miles southeast Of Amigo, murdered
his wife and their three children and
then made an unsuccessful attempt to
take his own life. At the inquest None
macher made full confession. He
said that crops were poor and he was
afraid of starving. His wife's parents
were in Quebec, where they had come
all the way from Germany and wanted
money. and he had none to send. After
the family was aleep he went out and
got an axe and returned to do the deed.
He said he killed his wife first by three
swinging blows on the left temple. He
then went into the next room and
killed Joseph. 6 years, and Willie, 4
years old. He struck both boys on the
head twice, Returning to the room
where his wife laid he picked up his l.
year-old baby, held her in one arm and
struck her on the top Of the head. He
then went to the barn, climbed on the
roof and jumped 20 feet to the floor Of
the pigsty, sustaining injuries to the
spine and paralyzing his lower extrem-
tiles.
Avisit to the scene of the murder dis
closed a horrible sight The mother
lay on her left side with gaping
wound in the temple. The baby was in
the cradle beside the bed in sleeping
posture. The boys were on the bed in
the next room in a pool of blood. The
father, as he lay on the floor of the
kitchen, paralyzed but conscious, with
out the least sign of sorrow or regret,
talked as calmly about the murder as
he would about killing a pig. None
macher cannot recover.

ENGLAND WILL INTERFERE.

Said She Will Not Permit Further
Coercion of Siam.
LONDON, Aug. 2.-The Daily News
says:
The latest news from Bangkok is very
serious. Siam having accepted the
French terms, Frances persistence in
coercive measures will be equivalent to
an unprovoked declaration of war, if
not an open demand for the cession of
Siam. The British foreign offices have
never been in firmer or better hands
than now. We have no desire to attack
France, but while Lord Roseberry
made up his mind from the first not to
assist or encourage the Siamese, he was
equally determined, with the full ap-
proval of his colleagues, to protect the
commercial rights of his own country
men. He distinctly warned France
that the British vessels could not be
stopped under a blockade avowedly
pacific in character. It is quite impos-
sible for Great Britain to withdraw the
ships she sent to Bangkok for protect.
i've purposes. We cannot be accused Of
exciting public feeling against France.
But moderation is one thing, weakness
another.

The Hawaiian Minister Will Not
Await Successor.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 2. Authentic
ter Blount has determined to turn over
matters in Hawaii, as far as United
States interests are concerned to Com
modore Skerrett of the Boston, and he
will sail for the United States on the
9th inst, without waiting for the APP
pointment of his successor. Mr.. Blount
may, however, be expected to arrive at
San Francisco Aug. 10. Meantime his
report, which has been mailed by the
steamer Oceanic, will have preceded
him, and by the time the special COM
missioner and minister arrives in the
East the president and Secretary
Gresham will have had full
opportunity to carefully consider
its contents. The intimations that Mr..
Blount has relinquished his mission be-
cause he resented his appointment as
successor to Minister Stevens does not
appear to be borne out by the facts.
The appointment followed Mr.. Blount's
arrival in Honolulu as a natural and
necessary feature of the work placed in
his hands, and the minister's reason for
returning to the United States is his
desire to give attention to his personal
affairs which are much in need of care
full handling, and the fact that he has
already completed the important part
Of the work confided to him justifies
him in returning to his home. In this
connection it may be stated that the
scope Of this work was limited to the
collection of the facts of the existing
political situation in Hawaii. It was
not contemplated that he should rec
ommend the annexation or protecterate
or that he should endeavor to restore
the monarchy. He was to learn as
nearly as he could in the absence of a
popular vote, which it was not within
his power to secure, the exact strength
of the annexation sentiment on the
islands. But he was not empowered to
interfere in the affairs of the provi-
sional government further than was
necessary to protect American inter
ests, nor was he charged to make any
recommendations. To the president
and secretary of state was to be left the
decision as to the future relations of
Hawaii to the United States, Mr..
Blount's report forming the basis for
that decision. ~

a place of safety. This will be a blow
