something of furry about the Senate
Yesterday when the four separate tariff

might be forced and showing

Mountain Sickness.

NJ. Regnard is French savant who has
been Investigating the causes Of mountain
sickness. He took two normal fowls, in
default of willing Alpists, and put them
under vacuum pump, with diminution
of pressure corresponding to an altitude of
10, 600 feet. One of the fowls was allowed
to take its case; the other had to turn a
sort of squirrel cage The one that was
cxcrting itself speedily showed signs Of
sickness, while the other remained unaf
fectcd When the vacuum was increased
to q point corresponding with baromctric
pressure at 81, 600 feet both the fowls gave
out and resigned themselves to die The
idle one, however, was very shortly re-
stored on being released, whereas the other
went through n protractcd and uncomfort-
able illness. The inference is that noun.
tain sickness is as much due to fatigue
and wear of tissue as to rarity of the at
mosphcrc, and that if lifts or balloons
could be applied to the Himalayas, for
instance mountaineering would be de-
privcd of one Of its most unpleasant foa-
lures. Pail Mall Gazette.

THE WEXFORD TRAGEDY.
State Constablss In Town With the Hope OF
r- Getting Bail for Massey.

The fact Of Justice Pope's residence
in this city has been the occasion of
! the enactment Of the third chapter OF
the Wexford tragedy in this city. 1t
will be. remembered 9hat on the eve.
ming of the third that Mr.. Ballew was
shot and killed by Constable Massey
and that the constable bas been held
by the coroner's jury, although it pro-
nounced it a case of killing while re-
sisting arrest.
Yesterday morning Chief Constable
Fant, in company with Constable Mas
sey. arrived in the city from Spartan
burg. FAINT had Massey in charge a.
the deputy of Sheriff Dean. Massey
came here for the purpose Of securing
bail and being released. It was expected
that Solicitor Schumpert was here and
that court was in session and that there
would be no trouble in securing the
desired bail. Upon finding out that
Solicitor Schumpert was not in the
city Mr.. FAINT went to gee Justice
Pope about the matter aud was told
by him that he would not entertain
the application for bail until the Solici-
tor was notified of the proposed action
or proper notice had been served upon
him. He, however, suggested that
Walter H. HINT, Jr., might act for the
Solicitor in his absence, and the con-
stables in consequence went to see Mr..
Hunt. He consented in the absence..of
Solicitor Schumpert to represent the
State in the matter. Then the con-
stables were puzzled about getting a
lawyer to prepare the requisite papers
with which to get before Justice Pope
on habeas corpus.
Telegrams were sent to the Attorney
General as to what had better be done,
and Chief Constable Fant was advised
to secure lawyer. Mr.. J. F. J. Cald-
we'll was first seen about the matter,
but advised the constables that they
had probably better be represented by
some lawyer in sympathy with the
law and system. They then went to
see Mr.. Thos. S. Sease.
Z If the proper papers are all prepared
and the cepstables are successful in
their quest for lawyer, the issue will
probably be heard to-day by Justice
Pope.
