CHICAGO, Feb Judge Gary, who pre-
sided in the Haymarket anarchist trial,
handed down a decision today from the
appellate court which marks departure
in Illinois Jurisprudence. The decision is
in the case of the West Chicago Street
Railway company against A d. Groshon.
Judge Gary, in the opinion, takes up the
question of the treatment accorded wit
nesses by the plaintiffs attorneys. ..One Of
whom was ex-Judge Wing. leading coun-
sci for the defense in the Coughlin case.
A verdict OF s25. 600 for the plaintiff was

which Groshon's counsel had attacked the

Gary, NOR should on examination be a
contest of skill or nerve between the Wit

courts have SO little control of the pro

THE GENUINE AND THE SHAM.

Every good thing has its host of imita-
tors; every genuine arlicle its couuterfeits.
The imitators alway choose the most
valuable and popular article to counter
felt, so that when they claim their sham
to be equal, or as good, or tue same as $50
and-so's." the public may depend upon it
that "So-and-so's" article is the best of the
kind. The sham proves the genuine merit
of the thing it copies aud never has this
been better illustrated than by the imita-
tors of ALLCOCK's Porous PLAsTERs.
ALLCoCK'S Porous PLASTER is the stan
dard of excellence the world over, and its
imitators in their cry that theirs is "as
good as ALLCOCK'S" are only empasizing
this fact and admitting "ALLCOCK'S" to be
the acme of perfection, which it is their
highest ambition to initiate. The differ
ence between the genuine and these imita-
tlons, which copy only general appearance.
is as wide as that between copper and
gold.
The only safe way for purchasers is to
always insist upon having ALLCoCK'S
Porous PLASTERs. They are the only
perfect plasters ever produced.

WOODWARD ITEMS.

WOODWARD, o. T., Feb. 2-[Spec;al. J.
Governor Renfrow arrived in the city last
night from Guthrie In conversation with
an EAGLE representative today he said
that his visit here was solely for the pur-
pose of looking into the conduct of the
county officials during the past four
months. The governor expressed himself
as being gratified with the conduct of all,
especially the probate judge and sheriff,
who, he says, have discharged the duties
OF their respective Offices with becoming
impartlality aud ability.
The mass meeting held last night in
East Woodward to investigate the books
OF the recorder OF filings was the largest
ever held here. One. q. w. Milton, who,
in company with numerous others from
Denver, Colo, has been endeavoring to
obtain foothold in the south half of sec
tion 80. contrary 10 the will and wishes of
the people, was last night suspended
from further dischargiag the duties of his
office By Probate Judge Jennings, peud-
ing the report OF the committee appointed
for that purpose. The sense of the meet
ing endorsed heartily the mode of pro-
cedure of the probate judge ia his untir-
ing efforts to relieve the people OF needless
and flagrant expenditure Of public funds
and trusts.

on the Stock exchange was very light today.
and the fluctuations were confined with un-
usually narrew limits An attempt was made
at the opening to raid the market on the
strength Of the passage Of the Wilson bill.
Sugar being selected as the victim The gen
eral list responded to very limited extent,
and Sugar. after decline of III per cent. took
an upward turn advancing "a per cent.
There was reaction and the list quotation
showed the gain on the day to be rs per cent.
Distilling was very strongly held throughout
the day, opening at an advance OF Is per cent,
and never receding more than Il per cent be-
low, and closing at an advance OF IS per cent
upon that figure, The Granger shares, North
west and Rock Island were entirely neglected,
and the dealings on the Burlington, the Mil
waukee, and the st. Paul were light, the clos
ing figure being Il per cent below that of yes
terday. The interest Of the general list was
on very small scale, and, during the after
noon. the changes of price made were OF the
smallest fraction. at times the market being
completely stagnant. After O'Clock, a firmer
tone prevailed, and prices advanced frac-

Bacteria and How They Arc Cultivated
and Stalled by Scisntists.
Surgeon General Sternberg showed
large gathering of military men at
the Army and Navy club recently how
cholera and other disease germs are
cultivated at the Army Medical mu-
scum, says the Washington Post Ex-
periments in bacteriology arc being
conducted here under DIR. Sternbergs .
supervision, and he himself has an en-
viable record as discoverer in this
science. The lecturer began with q
short historical account of the discov-
cry of the germs of typhoid fever, glan-
ders, tuberculosis, leprosy, pneumonia,
diphtheria, lockjaw and other diseases,
which, he said, were propagated in one
way or another by small germs Those
are olassed as micrococi, when they are
round as in diphtheria, as bacili when
they are straight rs in tuberculosis
and as spirilli when they are shaped
like a corkscrew as in the cholera
germs. All these are so small that
when magnified two thousand times
they have . diameter of sufficient size
to be photographed. These germs are
cultivated at the Medical museum in
different mediums, chief of which is
beef tea mingled with salt and
gelatine. The lecturer showed how
the germs were taken from dead
bodies and safely planted and trans
planted 50 that they could be studied.
There seemed to be some doubt in the
dc - &c h I.<,r, Ico 12tn
safety of handling the deadly cholera
germs, but the doctor said that they
were very easily killed, and in some
respects less to be feared than other
germs. He said that heat was a won
derful germicide, and that no germ
could live after being exposed to . tenn
perature of one hundred and forty
Fahrenheit. Some one suggested that
Il a man could stand the boiling il
would be very easy to rid him of the
cholera. The doctor said that the chol-
era germs died on exposure TO the sun
light for tvyenty-four hours, but to
make assurance doubly sure we were
in the habit Of killing him with
sledge hammer. The bacillus of typhoid
fever and of tuberculosis were very
tenacious of life. which explained in
part the prevalence of these diseases.
All germs became attenaated when
they were cultivated outside the hu-
man body. SO that after awhile they
lost their power to attac k the subject
violently. The germs lived in water
sometimes for a long period and
when drank produced mild forms
of disease. When reproduced in
the body they recovered their vi
tality. DR.. Sternberg said that
influenza or the grip was found to be Il
germ disease and it's prevalence was
due to the fact that people give Il of
in their breath and take no precautions
TO prevent It. The popular idea that
tobacco was a preventive OF this
class OF disease was a N issake, for q
student once experimental and found
that bacteria would Eouris in = tobec-
co culture. Some germs could be killed
by immersion for long time in alco-
hol. but the average germ would only
laugh at old Kentucky or comm issary
whisky
