a greater war would come upon the
nation than had ever been known.
As means to the introduction of such
a new era, he advocated the teaching
of our Sunday School scholars, young
and old, those principles which shall
make them good and honorable citi-
zens. This address was replete with
good things and made good impress
ions. w. T. Chapman presented q
paper on "The Sunday School Teach
er and his Preparation, in which he
endeavored to set forth the various
qualifications of the Sunday School
teacher and that the need of prepar-
alton was as imperative as it is in the
public school teacher. He should be
familiar with bible history, bible ge-
ography, bible institutions, bible
manners and customs, bible biogra-
ply and bible doctrine. He empha-
sized the necessity of the organiza-
tion of normal classes in connection
with every Sunday School. And yet
the teacher may have all these collat
eral acquirements and still be untitled
for his position. In addition to all
these he must have the preparation
of personal character, which must be
in harmony with his great text book
the Bible, for no one can point out
the way of life and salvation who has
not himself been in it. Mrs. H. G..
Tubbs was on the program for a pa
per on "How and When to Teach
Temperance in the Sunday School," ="
Much regret was felt that she was
unable to be present.
The exercises of the day were inter
spersed with soul stirring songs. At
the conclusion, a committee on reso-
lutions was appointed as follows:
Messrs. Malcolm Crockett, 7. s. Ling
ell and s. A. Miller. The resolutions
presented expressed the general sem
timent of the convention and were
unanimously adopted. Notwith-
standing the day was excessively hot,
all felt it good to be there. G.

came slowly by strangulation, the man
gasping and groaning i'll a frightful

Whaley kept up his courage until the

To Vote or
Not to Vote.

That is the question that is just now
agitating the minds of the female
members of society, as Betsy Bobbett
puts it, to the exclusion Of the old
topics of spring styles, house furnish
ing, society events and the other
things that have hitherto engrossed
the fair sex. Not only the Ohio
women but the women ofthe great
/, commonwealth of New York, are just
now all in a futter over expected
equal suffrage, and it is said that in
New York's "400," woman suffrage is
talked of to the exclusion Of every
thing else. Clubs for the study of
politics and the science of government
have crowded out all other literary
movements and, be it said to the cred
it Of the women, they are not going
into politics without being intelligent
ly informed as to what is expected of
them when 1t comes to casting ballots,
and that cannot be said Of the floating
male vote that holds the balance OF
power in so many of the large cities.
But, as we started to say the women
of the country are not unit when it
comes to voting. The fin de steele
woman is of course anxious to cast a
ballot. She is ready to yield her "pet
privileges to the larger prerogative
entailed by "rights" and she wants to
vote, Just as she wants to exercilr all
the other rights that belong to the
sphere of progressive womankind.
But conservative woman, of whom
there is legion in the land, is not

HydrOphobia and Its Treatment.

CODY, VA, october 20, 1894
To the Editor of the Dispatch:
Several years ago there was reported
in your paper the recollection OF many
old citizens Of Richmond, including the
celebrated Dr. Hunter Mcclure, as TO
rabid dogs and other animals, and II my
memory serves me Alright, there was not
one of the number questioned by the
reporter who ever saw case of hydro
phobia. or ever saw man who had
seen a case Now, II not taxing your
news columns too much. you will kindly
publish what was said at that time. or
give us new items on same as we have
quite mad-dog scare In this locality.
Many have gone 20 North Carolina to the
old Joe Pointer" maidstone. What is the
history Of that stone? Have you any
faith in its virtue? by answering the
above, and giving all information re-
garding rabid animals and hydrophobia.
you will very much interest an excited
people. f. +. THORNTON.
DR.. Hunter Mcclure did state in the
Dispatch some months ago that he
had never seen case of hydrophobia,
nor a physician who had seen case
He didn't mean by this that the disease
does not exist. but made the statement
TO show how rarely it occurs in this
climate.
The maidstone is Of little or no value.
1t is a porous piece of stone. adheres
to the wound when damp, and L. sup
posed TO take out the poison by capillary
attraction. One OF the most effective
methods Of treating the disease is to
suck the wound. This is dangerous II
there is any ulcer or breach OF surface
in the mouth or lips. The poison Is in
nocuous to the unbroken skin or mucous
membrane. A wound inflicted through tbs
clothing is not generally dangerous, as
the saliva is wiped off the animals teeth
before they reach the skin.
Another excellent way to treat a wound
made by a mad-dog is thoroughly TO eau
terize 1t with sulphuric acid, nitric acid,
or nitrate of silver. The cauterization
should be complete and thorough. In the
absence of all these caustics. the blade
Of knife heated to white heat should
be inserted into the wound and the part
completely cauterized. Before this is done,
II 1t is possible. a string should be tied
tightly around the limb above the az
fected place to prevent the poison from
getting into the general system. After
this has been done and the cauterization
made, the wound should be completely
excised. The sooner this treatment Is re-
sorted to the better, but 1t is worth while
to do 1t even II there has been delay
OF some hours after the bite, because
the poison is frequently absorbed very
slowly. After the disease Is established
and constitutional symptoms appear. 1t is
invariably fatal. There Is no exception
to this rule. Lately. however. under the

Our Friends TIE Doctors

Anent the meeting OF the Medical Socie-
" in Richmond to-day. 1t can be stated
that there are now about $50 students
at the three medical colleges in this Com
monwealth: q number quite unprecedented
we believe.
OF course all of these students are not
Virginians, but the great majority OF
them are. and there are some Virginians
pursuing their studies in other States OF
our Union. And it is noticeable fact,
too, that this great desire on the part OF
our young men to enter the medical pro-
fession comes at a time when the health
of the people of Virginia was never bet
ter.
II 1t be that disease stands disconnected
and aghast before the legion of young
men about to enlist their services against
1t, we have an exceptionally good reason
for rejoicing that our medical schools are
doing so well. In Richmond nowadays,
as at the University. the medical student
cuts a great figure In social as we'll as In
student life.
The doctors are welcome to Richmond.
They are men TO be respected and courted.
There comes a time TO nearly every man
when he looks into the face Of his phys-
clan to read his fate; to know whether
the pain he is suffering is to bring death
in its train or is but passing annoyance.
The family physician as he goes his
rounds is not a mere distributor OF doses.
but Is a counsellor and comforter OF the
distressed. a friend of the babes, of the
women, and of the men-especially of the
men when the men get sick and are as
babyish as the babes and womanish as the
women.
No professional man more richly earns
his fees than the doctor, and yet. as a
general thing no man collects from more
reluctant patrons No other professional
man has to submit to so many hardships
and discomforts; no other living upon
fees stands poorer chance Of accumu-
lating fortune. But as something Of an
offset to these hard facts. we may say
that no other professional man-no man.
the pastor only excepted-enlists the sym
pathies Of so many hearts and is the de-
pository Of so many family secrets. And
few indeed have been the practitioners
of medicine In Virginia who have proved
unworthy Of their great vocation and the
peoples trust We wish them well. May
life be sugar-coated for them.

Tho Cause OF Hard Timss.

The New York Journal Of Commerce In
n paper Of such high reputation that even
,ts unavoidable speculations are read
with interest by good many persons.
When we say "impracticable speculations'
we refer to the theories which that paper
advances from time to time. Here, for
example. is a paragraph which may be
said TO be startling:
1T seems too optimistic, however 10
expect any Immediate full employment or
the wc~ld's now existing pant iha'
would mean an overwhelming oVer-suppiy
Of products and further destructive fall
In prices The best and most econom'cai
plant may quite possibly find full and
reasonably profitable employment bnt u
would seem inevitable that machinery
lacking the latest economies Is doomed
TO either run at a loss or be thrown aside.
which implies an extinction Of no little
hitherto productive capital This, now
ever. would e'but n very partial remedy
OF the existing arrangements. Behinh All
such roadjustments. and beyond the fescn
OF the artificial restrictive expedients or
trusts through which relief has been so
extensively sought-thera lies more sub
tie problem affecting labor III IL not sur
prisng II IL Is becoming a debatable ques-
ton whether the ever-increasing prOduc-
tiyeness of machinery Is not so Tar IN
vading the domain OF labor as 10 relatively
diminish the demand for manual service.
Undoubtedly. we have never heard so
much Of "the unemployed class as within
late years; and 1t is Of great moment TO
understand how much and just what that
symptom means. In any case labor must
stand at disadvantage so long as the
supply Of productive plant exceeds the
possibilities of consumption; and hence
the meaning Of everywhere declining
wages. Producers can protect themselves.
under existing conditions. only by keeping
n part Of their plant idle; and That means
diminished work, lower wages and lower
prices"
This paragraph seems to hold machin-
cry responsible for the hard times Worse
than all, 1t holds out no hope 10 the suf-
fering world But we ask our New York
contemporary IL 1t is not a fact that there
never would be overproduc;ion anywhere

any given occupation? And would IT not
be possible to distribute a thousand men.
say, amongst other workers so as to ena-
BILE them all to work without causing over
production? And If a thousand, why not
a million?
