monies. Not only will 1t be celebrated ct his homo in Portland, but meetings in honor of the father of the "Nains Law" will doubtless be held in many other places by advocates of prohibition and total abstinence. MT. Dow's first interest in the temperance movement was in con- nection with the Maine Temperance union, which in 1887 urged upon the legislature the sbrogation of all license laws. In 1889 he appeared ss public advocate of prohibition, advocating before the alder men of Portland the referring of the ques- ton of license or no license to . vote of the citizens. Since then General Dow has been actively interested in temperance work. He served in the war and was twice wounded; he was captured by the rebels and in 1864 was exchanged for Gen eral Fitzhugh Lee. In 1880 General Dow was the Prohibition candidate for preei- dent, and received 10. 386 votee.
 According to Professor Loomis. 1t is not necessary in malsrial infection that . per son should have distinct intermittent par oxysms- It is quite sufficient that he re- side for . long time In e malarial district, as he is constantly exposed to the poison, and, were this patient to move away from where he is at present living to c place free from malarial emanations, he proba- bly, would have two or three severe mala- rial paroxysms, after which 1t Is far more smenable to treatment than now. Quinins or arsenic will not relieve him unless he can remove from the place where he now resides; place him In . non-malarious To- calIty, and quinins will then have its con- trolling power over the disease; but 90 long as this patient remains in c malArious district, large doses of quinine do more harm than good. Further, Professor Loomis remarks that if the dise.se pro- gressss without even temporary relief be- ing obtained, splenic enlargement will in- crease, the liver will become involved, and general dropsy finally terminate the case.
 The socialist students of the universities of Berlin, Freiburg, Munster, Aarburg and Kiel, for the first time in the history of German universities, have made . public declaration of their socialist sentiments by despatcbipg an address to the international congress of socialist students at Gensva. In this address they say: "we are of opin- ion that the intellectual proletsriat has sn important part to play in the socialist movement as teachers and enlightsnsrs of the people and as expounders of socialist theories. We are not yet in e petition to organize ourselves publicly within the academic corporation, or to attach our selves to the proletarisn organizations, but we assure the congress that in spite of po- litical ssrvitude and public constraint we will contribute to the extension and the fuller appreciation of socialist ideas with the greatest energy and by every mesns in our power" The Vorwarts, the socialist organ, prints this document, but treats 1t rather contemptuously, denying the right of the students to speak in the name of the intellectual proletarist. It further remarks that the mere fact that person is or has been a member of a university does not prove his capacity for disseminating social ist theories ss 's teacher and enlightener of the people"
