NEW CURE FOR DlPHTHERlA.
European Hospitals Practicing a Method OF
Blood inoculation.

So many thousands of children are
annually carried off by diphtheria, the
sufferings caused by tho disease are so
agonizing and Tire remedies hitherto at
the disposal of the medical profession SO
inadequate that tho news Of the intro
duction into The Berlin and London hos
pitals Of new and eficacious cure for
this fell malady cannot be regarded
otherwise than as a matter Of public in
torest.
Very little has been heard about this
remedy, owing TO the fact that the dis
tinguished bacteriologists engaged III
its discovery have been unwilling to
subject themselves to the same disad-
vantage as Dr. Koch, whose cure for
consumption has been unjustly pro-
claimed a failure merely because it
was published to the world prematurely
and before it was ready for medical ap-
plieation The new cure, briefly speak
ing, is one Of incubation with this
difGerence-thaf, instead OF injecting
the poison into the system Of che pa
tient, one injects the blood OF an AMI
nal which has been inoeulated with Il
weak culture of the diphtheria baete-
ria, the virus Of the latter beng how
ever, OF SO weak character that it does
not affect the animal with the malady,
but merely renders it immune thereto.
Repeated experiments made OF late
have shown that a few drops Of blood
from a horse or any other animal thus
rendered immune injected into hu-
man being suffering from diphtherla
are sufficient to arrest and cure the dis
ease. Or course it is too soon as yet TO
quote the statistics Of the few hundreds
Of cures which have been effected III
Berlin and London by this treatment,
which is to be fully discussed II all It's
complicated scientific aspects at the
forthcoming international congress OF
hygiene in September at Budapest. But,
whatever the ultimate result OF It's ap-
plication, it has at least one advantage
over all other forms Of incubation hlth-
erto overwhelmingly that the matter
injected into the system OF the patient
Is free from poison and consequently
harmless. New York Tribune.

floor of three-story brick building
eayed in this morning, burying five men

seriously and two slightly hurt. The
first floor was occupied by bakers, and
on the second floor was stored 200
barrels of wheat flour and 800 sacks of
rye. In making the excavation for the
boiler bed the walls of the building
were weakened, and the weight of the
flour sprung the second floor, which
fell, carrying the first floor into the
cellar. The workmen in the cellar es-

HIT BY A MErEoR.-Capt. Blake, of
the schooner P. T. Barnum, hailing
from Bridgeport, Conn.,, says his vessel
was hit by meteor on recent trip
down the Jersey coast. The schooner
left Norwich bound for Philadelphia,
and all the way down the Jersey coast
she had fine weather.
When Squan Inlet was reached early last
Saturday morning the vessel was ploughing
along under good sail. Suddenly the deck
was illuminated as bright as by day. The
topmast had been struck by meteor, which
shattered itself and threw flames in every di-
rection. The officers and members of the crew
on deck at the time were thrown down and
stunned by the shock. Harry Nelson was
in the top rigging when the mast was struck.
He says he first heard Kissing and then felt
the shock. He did not see the meteor until it
struck. The rigging was set afre, and Neil
son was burned about the legs, BE was
higher up in the rigging than where the
meteor struck. When the meteor burst pieces
as large as bushel baskets fell on the deck.
The only damage the vessel received was the
burning Of some Of the rigging.
