1T Is decidedly unfortunate for the
cause of temperance, that it should
have such votaries as the Rev. DR..
Lansing, of Boston. This divine (which
sacred appellation he renders himself
unworthy of by his unchristian-like
actions toward his fellow being) has
recently brought himself very promi-
nently before the public, by reason of
the uttering Of the most outrageous
aud malicious detractions concerning
the sobriety of our worthy President,
Grover Cleveland. The notices of he
affair in the public press created the
most indignant feeling among all fair
minded people, and no evidence Is
wanted to prove the Chief Magistrate
of our nation entirely guitless of these
idle ind un-ministeria accusations.
The specific nature of the charges in
few words are these: All remember
the great delay on the occasion Of the
naval rendezvous OH the Hudson river
caused by the President, who had to
sober up in order to review the great
pageant. DR.. Lansing said his inform
ant was New Yorker who was init
mate with Mr. Cleveland, and lie fur
thermore stated that at public din
uer given the President In new York,
after his second election, he sat next to
him until O'Clock, a. M, and that
that parsonage was drunk. From what
we know and have heard Of Mr. Cleve-
lands actions, both public and private,
whilst he has been In the White House,
We are inclined to think that the
person who took the jealous minister
into his confidence and impaired to
him his tale Of woe" was the one, II

Iuded to, under the influence Of intox-
icauts, and not the man be and his
God-serving friend are 80 anxious to

nounced the charge Is base and un-
founded libel, aud says be Is thankful
that these scandal-monging ministers
are few, and that the American
people love fair play and justice,

clination for the study OF science and
questions of natural philosophy alb
sorbed much of his attention. Among
the first things that challenged his notice
in the course of his study of molecular
physics and chemistry was the matter of
fermentation. He wanted to discover the
causes of intestinal changes which begin
after death in animal or vegetable life.
In October, 1857, he was called to Paris
to assume direction of the scientific stu
dies at the Superior Normal school. But
the opportunities he desired were not af-
forded by that institution and he applied
to the minister of public instruction to
provide a laboratory of such experiments
as he contemplated. No funds being
available for the purpose, the ambitious
young scientist erected at his own eX-
pense a laboratory in the garnet of the
normal school, and there he spent most
Of his time.
NJ. Pasteur's friends had no sympathy
with his aspirations and protested that
he could accomplish nothing in the di-
rection in which he aimed to achieve
wonders. But he persevered and in
1864 demonstrated by experiments that
the accepted theories of spontaneous gen
GRAFTON were false.
The most important of his recent
achievements was his discovery of inoc
ulation for the prevention of hydrOpho-
bia. In 1880 he began the study of
this subject, his attention having been
directed TO the case of q child that had
been bitten by rabid dog. After the
death of the child two rabbits were
inoculated with the frothy matter that
had accumulated in the childs mouth
during its last convulsion and it caused
the death of the animals in two days.
After various experiments he conceived
the idea of inOculating the brain of q
dog with the virus of rabies, which es-
tablished the fact that rabies is a mala
dy of the brain.
NJ. Pasteurs special study has been
chemistry and he has written numerous
works in relation to it, among which
are "a New Example of Fermentation
Determined by the Ability of Infusorial
Animalcules to Live Without Free Oxy-
gen." Studies of Wine, It's Diseases,
etc" Studies on the Silkworm Dis
ease" and "Some Reflections on Science
in France" Prof. Huxley thought his
achievements an equal in money value
to the whole 5,000,000,000 francs indem-
nifty paid to Germany on account of the
war of 1870

VICER0Y DEGRADED.
Dispatch from Minister DENLY Re-
garding Cheng Tu-Trouble
at Ku Cheng.

Washington, D. c., Sept. 2S-United
States Minister DENLY cables the state
department today from Pekin as fol-
lows:
'Yamen have telegraphed authorities
of Chill, Shansi and Shensi to appoint
an officer to escort commission. Edict
will issue in a few days Furnishing Off
Gals and degrading viceroy. Will tele-
graph it.
This message refers to the independent
American commission which has been
formed to investigate the Cheng Tu mis-
sionary riots. The edict to which refer
ence is made is supposed to be about
to issue as the result of the French in
vestigation of the Cheng Tu affair, and
the yiceroy concerned is probably Liu

CHINA GETS IT.
AWed by the British Ultimatunn, She
Caused the Degradation of
ViCerOV Lin.

London, Sept. 30.--It is announced
that China has accepted the British ulti-
matum, and that the Viceroy of Szechu-
en-, who is held to have been responsible
indirectly or directly for the massacre
of missionaries in the territory under
his jurisdiction, has been degraded.
Washington, D. c., Sept. 30.-Minister
DENLY cabled the state department from
Picking today as follows:
Imperial decree issued. Abstract:
Responsibility for SZechuen riots rests
with officials; Viceroy Liu careless; took
no notice Of the beginning of the riots.
He is deprived of office, never to be en- !,
ployed. Other officials to be punished"
This would indicate that the crisis i'm
pending in China, involving a naval de-
monstration by the British forces, has
been averted, for a time at least, by
compliance with the principal demands
Of the British. 1t cannot be learned
wh>tErr the decree comedies all of the
demands made and the cablegram makes
no reference to the sweeping conditions
imposed by the British minister that the
guilty officials be punished by suspension
for three years on all promotions and
appointments in the ciyil-service IN the
province of SZechuen.
Niceroy Liu, whose fall is announced,
has been in trouble before. 1t is under
stood that he was found guilty last No
vember of misrepresentation of funds and
later on because the French investiga-
tons showed that he was responsible for
the Cheng-Tu riots. He was obliged to
pay an Indemnity of 100000 to the
French Catholic missions form his own
pocket.
The present conclusion, which has been
brought about apparently by British
threats, will not involve the abandonment
of the investigation into the Cheng Tu

in the personnel of the commission and

a decree had already been published

the viceroy Of Szechuen to be stripped
of his rank for failing to protect the

warning to others, it is further directed
that he shall not again be permitted to

gency.

SPECIAL SESSION CALLED.
Gov. Culberson Exhausting Every
Resource to Stop the Prize
Fight.

Austin, Tex. Sept. 27.-Gov Culber-
sons proclamation, issued late last night,
converting the Legislature next Tuesday
to enact another prize-fight law was, a
great surprise. There was some talk ~
day that the Populists and other political
opponents of the governor may defeat the
object by making a law to go into effect
in ninety days. 1t requires thirds
vote to give immediate effect Repre-
sentative Ham Ward, leading member
of the House, today said that the Legis-
lature undoubtedly would pass a law to
go into effect at once and that it would
make prize-fghting a felony. He think,
the law will be passed within a wee
after the Legislature meets.
Chicago, ILL.,. Sept. 27.-The Chicas
sporting contingent do not seem to bt
much alarmed over the action of the gov
ernor of Texas. They say it is one thing
to call the Legislature together and an
other to secure the passage of law pro-
hibiting fighting. Dan Stuart last night
telegraphed F. E. Kennedy, who expects
to run train to Dallas for the fight, that
the mill would be brought off in the In
dian territory if law was passed forbid
ding it in Texas. What action Uncle
Sam would take if the two pugilists at
tempted to meet on his domain is prob
iematical.
