hogs to 1867 and live hogs 1868, 1859

Up to 1868 all of the quotations are
on dressed hogs, it being the custom
then for farmers to have Il "hog killer"
and market them dressed. OF course
a higher price was paid for dressed
hogs than for live ones. This raises
the average for the first period con-
siderably. Another reason for higher
price then was the demand during the
war for the army. The country was
almost stripped Of hogs. The agri-
cultural department at Washington

Newall Ball OF Bridgeville was in this
city to-day. In speaking of the Constitp-
tiohal Convention he said that the Rspub-
leans or Democrats Of Kent county were
elected and he did not see how 1t would be
legal to select five delegates from each
party. It feminded him Of throwing a
man down, taking his pocketbook and re-
turning one half Of its contents.
A prominent Democrat from Dover,
was In this city also, and to a REPUBLI-
CAN reporter said: 1t Is oil fixed
The Democrats will hold the winning
hand In the Legislature and the conven-
ton also.
The Regular Republicans would not
caro- to have Beniah Watson In the con-
vention. They want to down Ad ticks.
The Democratic clerks tried their hand
to down Addicks. The Democrats are
with Spruancc and Bradford. There will
BIO sixteen to IA in the convention. No
partisan legislation this session did you
sayp Why bless your heart no one
known how Bob Handy will vote this
year The Republicans read him out Of
the party.
He does not want to be speaker Of tho
Senate, but he has friend, and he is not
Fisher Pierce, you may depend upon 1t.
Not even Addicks con control Handy
when he gets ready to kick.
Spruance and Bradford can have their
revenge but 1t lies with the Democrats to
catch the prizes. j. Frank Alice can new
or be seated because Pierce will not vote
for al Addicks man. No sir Democrat
is probable.

GRIp Is PREVALENT.
Physicians Report Macy Ou.es Again In
This City.


The disease which is popularity called
grip and IL spoken of by physicians only
as Influenza hes been prevalent In this
city for month, Scarcely physician
who has general family practice has not
met with cases. Because OF the mildness
Of the diseases 1t has excited little com.
ment, but whether because of the increas.
ed humidity and unreasonable heat or
some cause not yet ascertained its viru
lence has been Increased.
Pneumonia accompanies grip or, rather,
influenza passes into pneumonia and ends
fatally. Never before at this season of the
year has the number of deaths from
pneumonia been SO small. This is proof
positive Of the mildness Of the grip visi a.
tion and of the little fear that it is entitled
to.
The prevailing fad in science Is the o..
Establishment of connection between
weather and health That an invalid Ia
brighter on day Of high barometer, mod
crate temperature and abundant sunshine
and worse on n day oflow barometer high
temperature and no sunshine, everybody
knows, but no statiStician has been able to
establish pc ,itiye relation between
weather and death rate, save ms extremes
OF heat and cold destroy persons exposed.
The lower barometers last week, with
the high temperature and high humidity,
did not avail to increase the death rate.
Friday was the warmest November n on
record in this city, Yet not u death from
pneumonia was reported.
Tho disease has IN affection for old per-
sons; women are more susceptible than
men, und adults than children. IL usually
begins with cold followed by chill and
in u day or two catarrhal symptoms and a
cough appear.
The cou III is very aggravatng and does
not yield readily. The most common pre-
scriptlon given by physicians who attend
the welltudo is Il change Of climate.
Where this is not possible, the treatment
is similar to the physicians standard
treatment for pneumonia. The disease
often runs rapidly into pneumonia, and
whenever it ends fatally the final symp.
toms are Of pneumonia
