The dangers that lurk unseen in the
air form the subject of an essay by M.
de Nansouty on s'The Atmosphere of
Large Towns and Micrography." He
points out the increased pollution Of the
air in Paris from the factories worked
by steam machinery and remarks that
vapors which contain sulphur are spe-
cially disastrous to the lungs, since the
sulphur which they contain is trans
formed into sulphurous acid and then
into sulphuric acid, which falls back to
the earth with the rain and fog. An
analysis of dust particles reveals that a
remarkable collection of diverse objects
may be absorbed at every breath in the
street of large city-silex, chalk, plas-
ter, pulverized rock, charcoal, hairs,
fibers, vegetable refuse, starch, pollen
cells, etc. A specimen of dust collected
from furniture on the third floor of a
street in Rennes contained all this and
nearly 5000, 0C0 bacteria in addition. A
gram of dust about 10 grains) in move
ment in the streets incloses about $780,
900 bacteria. The dust of houses, then,
is far more dangerous. M. de Nansouty
concludes that it is of incalculable i'm
portance to devote incessant attention
to the number, quantity and nature Of
those microscopic beings which surround
us.-London Hospital.

This Is a Georgia Story.

At Waynesboro, just before recent
hanging, two young fellows went out to
inspect the gallows and satisfy their curl
Dsity.
Arrived on the spot, one of them ex-
pressed a desire to see how the thing
worked.
"Put your head in the noose," said the
other, land I'll show you"
For the novelty of the thing his COM
panion suited the action to the word,
when-"click!' and down shot the trap!
The moose was not in position, how
ever. and slipped off the head of the
frightened fellow just in time to save
him from being jerked out of the world.
Neither of those adventurous young
men has any further desire to test the
efficacy of the sherid's preparations for
dispatching people from this world to

Examining the. Reservoir.

J.J.R. Croes, civil engineer of New
York and William jackson, city engi-
neer of Boston arrived in Portland yes
terday for further examination of the
reservoir on Munjoy Hill. They are here

Mr.. futile Accepts.

Lucius futile, who has been selected
as president of the Boston 6 Maine sys-
tenn, has this to say about his appoint
ment:
II realize that this change means a
great deal of hard work. While the ne
gotations were in progress, would not
have been at all disappointed had they
fallen through, but the Boston & Maine
people made very pleasant inducements,
and so have accepted.
''Ex-Congressman Frank Jones is the
acting president, but he told me Tuesday
he wished could come down today and
assume charge of the road.
''If am elected president October IL,
I shall begin at once the duties of the

been very pleasant, and | have received
some very pleasant expressions of regard
since it was known that | should proba-
bly, leave, all of which are very pleasant.
Indeed, it would be unpleasant to leave

THAT SUIT FOR SALVAGE.
Captain Matthews Wants $1,000; Captain
Rider Offers S125.

Judge Webb listened yesterday, and will
give his attention today to the evidence
in a marine case, that OF Thomas
Matthews VS.. the schooner S. S. Smith
of Bath, and others. H, W. Swasey and
Stephen G. Perry represent the owners
OF. the tug. and Benjamin Thompson is
counsel for the claimants. The salvage
asked for is $1,000 or what seems fair and
right in the courts estimation, and the
case it as follows, as it was developed by
the evidence put in yesterday.
The libellants claim that on Sunday
night August 18th, the captain of the
tug Demerest was notified by the captain
of the New York boat that a schooner
was outside in distress. Capt. Matthews
Immediately went on his tug to the
rescue and found the schooner S. S.
Smith about four miles off Cape Eliza
beth, and the schooner was listed to the
starboard side, with rail and bow under
water. Shortly after arriving, the YES
sci righted then both rails were sub
merged, as was the wheel, and
the boat, which was lowed astern of
the schooner was filed with water and
the oars were missing.
The crew consisted of Captain E. r.
Rider of Bath, and two men. The
schooner was lumber laden, and had
deck load, which was eight or nine feet
in height. Captain Trundy of the Life
Saving Station, was at that time on the
vessel, having seen distress signals dis
played by the schooner's crew. The tug
Demerest ran out a hawser and started
to tow the vessel, but the lines parted
twice, and then the tug went under the
Ieeward side, and after securing itself by
lashings, succeeded in bringing her into
port about two o'clock in the morning
The schooner left the Kennebec river
on the 18th and passed Seguin light
about two O'Clock that afternoon, when
a leak was discovered; her pumps were
worked but were unable to take care of
the increasing water. The schooner was
rs tons burden, and owned by Joseph
Varney of Bath. Her cargo was con-
signed by W. G.Shaw of Bath to Boston
parties.

hearing the testimony of Capt. Geo. II.
Matthews of the tug Demerest, Thomas
Matthews, engineer of the boat, and
Charles Bartlett, Jr., clerk of the steam
boat company and j. F. Liscomb in be-
half of the claimants.
Captain Trundy was called, but was
excused until this morning, his public
duties re quiring his presence at the
life saving station.
In the afternoon deposition was read
showing that Capt. Bennett of the Cot
tage City, passed the schooner at $50
o'clock off the Two Lights. He reported
to Captain Matthews that the schooner
needed assistance. The tug Demerest
reached the schooner at s o'clock and pro-
ceeded with her in tow, reaching Port
land at about 2 O'Clock the next morning.
The other witnesses were Capt. Rider of
the S. S. Smith, who testified to the events
connected with his eyentful trip, George
L. Burnham, one of his crew, Albert B.
Hall, John n. Humphrey, Capt. Nathan
Webb Thompson and Capt. Charles WI.
McDuffle The owners estimate the
value of the services of Capt. Matthews
at only S125, and offered him that
amount.

Straw to the quarantine station on House

lapidated condition, some miscreants
having obtained entrance either through

The parties had taken about everything
that could be carried away, excepting a
box of soap, a case of blankets and an
expensive thermometer. The glass in
the windows was broken and articles

strychnine, no bismuth, noarsenic; moth
ing but the leaves, barks, berries and
roots of the field and forest which the
Indian has learned to use.
Indians know nothing of those harm
full drugs, and could not use them it they
would.
This fact is important.
The medicine you take into your system
should be to strengthen and build it up,
not merely to stimulate it, and add the
fuel of poison to the consuming flames OF
disease.
Indians don't have Dyspepsia, yet they
eat anything and everything, at all times
and under all conditions.
Indians don't have Malaria, yet they
sleep out Of doors, exposed to night air,
live in damp places, and frequent changes
are quite common to their mode of life.
Yet both these ailments and many others
that the red men never have are frequent
ly found among white people.

Sagwa he keeps it constantly with him

since the organization was formed have
the entries for races and exhibits been

holden by this society. The track will
be in fine condition and we can see notn-

be under the efficient management OF the

not leave the grounds to procure GOOD
meals. The bicycle races will be well
contested, judging from the number OF
entries from abroad and the novelties
that will be introduced this season bid
fair to be full of interest. People coming
with teams can find ample provision
for them by inquiring of the gate tend
