WAS TT DYNAMITE?
The Explosion Of Big Cannon Cracker Creates Considerable Excitement
 on second Avenue.

Great excitement was created on Second avenue in front of the Red Store Saturday night about 10 o'clock hy the explosion of an inn meDse cannon cracker, which came near resulting seriously. From where tho cracker came no one seems to know. Mrs. Frank Mays was get ting in his buggy to go home and Mr. Charles Reynolds, both clerks at the Red Store, was standing in the front door when the explosion oc- cured. The explosion made a loud report and was heard in the femotest part of the city. A part of the cracker struck Mr Mays, tearing his coat sleeve and making a flesh wound on his arm. A part of the cracker also struck MT. Reynolds on the right side, leaving two black bruises. In q few minutes after the ex- plosion a great crowd gathered and there was considerable excitement 1t is evident from the damage done and the loud report made that it WAS no ordinary camone cracker, and lit is believed by many that it con- tained dynamite
 The party or parties who threw it are unknown, and should he or they be discovered it willnot go well with them. It was certainly an inexeus- able and reprehensible piece of busi- ness, and is deserving of the severest condemnation and punishment. It is fortunate, indeed, that the ex- plosion was not more serious and disastrous.

 A CorrpefIofl

Referring to an article in the Daily Commercial Of July IA, wherein that paper stated that Mrs. Ed. Strong was complaining of improper com duct on the part Of man who claimed to be taking the census for city directory, we wish to make a few corrections The writer has personally interviewed both Mr. and Mrs. Strong, who unhesitatingly state that they had no complaint whatever to make of the gentleman's conduct, and that the arcticie in the Commercial is mistake from begin hing to end; that our representa- tive's demeanor while on their prem ises was nothing but that of gen- tleman. They did, however, remark afterward that he might be taking the names of the railway employees to be used by the managers in con- nectien with the strike, and from this remark emanated this story of the three black crows"
 We pake this correction in justice to ourselves and employees, and will say that the reason it has been de layed is because We understood that the Commercial would take pleasure in making the correction . Up to this date, however they haze failed to do so. Hence these tears.
 Very Respee tfully,
 T. J. WILSON.

lEPROSY IN INDIA.
Various Th.-- ie- a. to the Origin and Prop
aga.ion OF the Disease.

1t has often been popularly SAID
that fish eating Is a main cause ot
leprosy and some scientific men hOld
the opinion that. fish introduce the
bacillus into the stomach or stimu-
late it 10 activity when it already r.
sides in the tissues. Against this the
DRY, popular and scientific. there are
the facts that no bacilh have ben
discovered in fish: that castles whiCL
never touch fish furnish their ia.
contingents of lepers, and that II.
disease Is noJ more rife in dlsJT.,
bordered by the sea and by large r!'
ers than anywhere else. On the otii.
er hand. leprosy is common III hill
tracts. where fish l. a very rare az
ticle of food
Mr. c. COnybeare. who some time
ago was apprehensive that leprosy
was due to the high price of salt. Will
be much relieved to hear that by
statistics to which no exception can
be taken on the ground Of inaccuracy
the consumption of salt Is shown t.
be twice as great as the increase of
the population in 90 years; that the
Ryot spends aQ salt about l penny
month for each Of his family, and
that if there has been any percepti
BILE addition to the number of lepers
it has occurred in provinces where
the price of salt has fallen. Other
alleged causes are mentioned to be
summarlly and contemptuously dis
missed
Water, opium and mosquitoes have
each in turn been made responsible.
Now, the bacillus has never been
found in water, though the commits
sioners in vain analysed the water Of
a filthy tank in which crowds of lep-
ers bathed. Premature marriages
and the consumption of opium are
not to blame, and If mosquitoes or
flies could communicate the disease
after they had sucked the blood of
any lepers Calcutta, where these lit
tie pests abound and murder sleep.
should be a perfect leper asylum.
On the question of infection and
contagion the report ON ''Leprosy In
India" affirms that, though leprosy
may be considered an infective dis
ease caused by specific bacillus, and
also to some extent a contagious dis
ease" it is not actively or usually diff
fused in this way. Again, one might
imagine that leprosy must be hered-
itary. This assertion, if not abso-
lutely disproved, is by no means GER
tain.
Many lepers are sterile. There Is
no evidence that the marriage of lep-
ers with lepers or with nonleprous
women always diffuses the disease
The children of lepers are often shor'
lived, and as far as returns can be
depended on there is never more on
m average than a couple of children
to each marriage Of lepers.-Satur
day Review.
