The San Francisco Murderer.

The San Francisco police are still
busy picking up the threads and weav-
ing their network of circumstances and
evidence in the Emanuel Baptist
Church cases, so as to leave no weak
mesh through which the accused can
escape, for they believe they have the
murderer in the person of w. 81. T.
Durant.
Among the exhibits in the case is
one that was quietly taken to police
headquarters and locked up, and not
until a late hour Saturday night did
the police acknowledge they had it.
This exhibit is a shoe, and on it's sole
are dark spots of blood that came from
the body of Miss Williams. The shoe
is the property of Rev. J. George Glib
SOD, pastor of the church, and it was
found in his study in the edifce Sun
day week just after the finding of the
body of Miss Lamont. This statement
has created a sensation, and gives
those who have been limiting that Rev.
Gibson may be the guilty man an oppor-
tunity to emphasize their suspicious.
However, the police do not seem to see
in it anything that duplicates the pas
tor, for they argue that the person who
killed the two girls was familiar with
the church, must have known the
shoes were there, and may have worn
them in his bloody undertaking.

A THREAT.

Colored people in Richmond are
stirred up over the imprisonment of Luz
cinda Ray, woman of their race, in
Henrico county Jail, upon the charge of
ill-treating fve-year-old white child,
which she stated she had been raising
for unknown white parents. She stated
the child was left with her by strange
white lady some days ago. The woman
was arrested upon the complaint OF
neighbors of whipping the child, and it
was alleged she kept the little one lock-
ed up for days at time. The child's
body was covered with sores, which she
said were due to blows from the woman.
The Richmond Planet, the organ of the
colored people, comes out in violent
article, in which it says: 1.-THE cause of
all of this agitation is due to the fact
that colored woman is raising it, and
the white child called her mother. If

A NEW THEoRY.-At Thursday IS ses-
sion of the National Academy of
Sciences, in Washington, paper by
DR.. John S. Billings on the compost
ton of exhaled air created much in
terest, and evoked considerable discus
sion. DR.. Billings reached the conclu-
sion that in the exhaled breath no con-
ditions Of disease exist, and no poison
Gus bacteria are contained. The paper
maintained that the breath, even of a
consumptive, is not dangerous. 1t is
only when the subject coughs or
sneezes that the exhalation bears the
germs of disease. Its never in the air
itself that such disease spreads, but in
the dust from sputa. The whole
theory of the paper was subversive of
accepted ideas Generalization.
DR.. Billings even went so far as to
8 y that, aside from the matter of inhal
ing poisonous organic matter, breath
ing the pure air of mountains secures
no special immunity from diseases over
breathing the air of the slums. Meth
er produces disease.
Prof. Remsen, of Johns Hopkins Col
lege, said this paper would upset all
accepted notions on the subject. Prof.
Browitch, of Harvard, said he agreed
with the general line of results brought
out by DR.. Billings, and thought the
skin was great source of disease con-
djtions

parochial schools. In this country, he
sympathized with Archbishop Ireland,
of Minnesota, in his struggle against
parochial schools, though ali the other
members of the hierarchy here were
opposed to him. Geographical bound
aries do not affect the principles OF
other people, though they evidently do
those of the Papal delegate to this

fortune was that when he first came
here ne allowed himself to be influenced
by Archbishop Ireland, a scheming ap-
plicant for Cardinals hat, who favors
social equality, and who is blatant re-
publican, having abandoned his own
diocese last fall to go to New York
and make political speeches against the

the voters of Alexandria county, IN re-
snect of the officers the latter shall
elect next month, knew what they
were talking about, they possibly
MIGHT not be as yoluminous on the

voters referred to are negroes, who
have no material interest in the coun-

Washington the newspapers of that
CITY protest whenever the subject is
broached-and whose ballots are in-
yariably cast for the candidate with
the largest open purse. The character
of the candidate is as nothing to them
indeed their prejudice inclines them
to the man with the worst; it is the
price he will pay for their votes, either
rs individuals or as clubs, that chiefly in
fiuences them. Under such condi-
ton, how is it possible that the white
minority in the county, composed
mainly of democrats, can elect the men
they would like to have for their of
ficers-to execute the laws and preserve
order. for which purposes they are
heavily taxed and have to pay almost
the entire cost? In this, as in many
other matters. the newspapers of the
-.1frttunal capital would do well not only
to refrain from giving unasked advice,
but to follow that of Davy Crockett.
