The Fiery Serpent of Egypt.

DIR. Stiles mere showed a specimen in q
bottle of a curious creature which. he said,
was the only specimen, probably, in Ameri-
ca. This was what is known as the guinea
worm, which some scientists look upon as
the fiery serpent of the children of Israel.
II one happens to be in Egypt or in certain
parts of Asia he might become infested
with this worm by taking it with drink
Of water. This parasite. DIR. Stiles said,
is about yard long and lives under the
skin. 1t produces large swellings, accom-
panied by an intense burning sensation,
hence the name fiery serpent or fiery dra-
gon, which 1t retains until the present cay.
The parasite is caught by swallowing small
Crustaceans in unfiltered water, for the
larval stage of this worm lives in these
minute crabs, cyclops by name Although
we are not likely to catch the fiery serpents
like the children of Israel, the lecturer
showed how one known as the thread
worm, which lives in various parts of the
body, and which is so small that large
number may be found in a single drop Of
blood, may be taken in a drink of water.
He described these small creatures develop
ing into tapeworms and other monsters
that might be swallowed with ones beef or
veal, or pork chops. In eating half-cooked
pork, one might eat piece infested with
the much-dreaded trichinae

The Dreaded Trichinac,

"These trichinae," he said, ARE curious
little creatures, although they are the OBJ
jects of considerable fear to the physician
" no knows only too well that II these PARA
sites once gain access to a patients mus
cles he is utterly pOwerless to reach them
and kill them with any medicine known
yet to the Zoologist these worms are of
considerable interest. They are very small
and as many as 350OO0 may live in a sim
gle pound Of meat. These minute worms
live inside of the muscle fiber of pork coiled
up like a spiral with a small cyst around
them. When we eat this pork, the meat upon
coming into our stomach. is digested and
these minute cysts are liberated. The juices
of our stomach then dissolve the cyst and
Mr.. and Mrs. Trichinae pass down below
our stomach and proceed TO make life un-
pleasant for us. Mrs. Trichina becomes the
mother of about ten thousand to fifteen
thousand wriggling youngsters within a
months time, and these latter bore through
our digestive wall and journey to the mus
cles. Upon arriving at some muscle which
they fnd to let, they bore into it, proceed
to take possession of the contractile sub
stance. The more of the contractile sub
stance the trichinae eat, the less there is
for us to use in swallowing, breathing
walking, &c. After some weeks, however
the parasites have satisfied their appe tite
and they become encysted, and our muscles
present the same appearance which the
pork had before ate it. If our physi-
clan has succeeded in stimulating up to
the stage when the parasites become en-
cysted. we will recover from the disease and
the trichinae will do no further harm until
We go to Africa missionaries, when
the sayageS may suddenly discover that
they have q bad case Of trichinosis, should
they not allow us to carry on our work I'm

became infected with these parasites by
ca ting rats. Rats keep up the infection
among themselves by eating each other, for
rats are cannibals.

Sewerage and Bonds.

Translated from the Freie Presse Fuer
Texas July II.
Any one who has read the re-
port of Engineer Gray must have
become impressed with the idea
that the main point in construction
of sewerage system is based upon
the culture" and which according
ly will cost $9S9,450,7l.
He also adds an estimate which
he calls "for present uses," the costs
of which he estimates at $4SS, SOS, rs.
But adds in tue itemized state
ment that this is an estimate for
"the present population"
We see from yesterdays council
proceedings that they are planning
in all seriousness to construct a
system in accordance with "pres-
eEt needs and population" and to
issue bonds amounting to 100000.
An election has been ordered on
the 7th of August next, for a vote
on the subject.
The council shows short-sight-
edness beyond measure in this
matter. 1t is to be wondered that
there was not one alderman who
dared to raise his voice against
this vicious squanuering Of money
and to protest energetically
against such unwarranted action
which only shows glaring want
of experience and fickleness.
Really it gives us an idea that it is
the only aim of the council to
spend money, whether we will get
anything for it or not. See
cemetery, see slaughterhOuse, see
sewerage system, etc.
Could not one of the eminent
members of our business admins
:ration think of the continual
growth of San Antonio, and that
such an establishment should be
had with wisdom and foresight,
that something must be created
that will be serviceable in the far
future?
A Sewerage System for Present
Wants ~ Who would not laugh !!
And in five years we pull up the
whole system and build new one.
The gentlemen of the council seem
to have little faith in the future.
But if such a system is to be built
solid it may appear that it would
prove itself to be insufficient before
completion.
No, this proposition of the coun-
Gil is no good. We are not only
generally opposed that the present
administration should engage in
this speculation, but we do most
emphatically oppose proposition
throwing away and squandering
of 100000.

ent needs and the present popula-
tion."-Yes, this heat, this great
