devoted to furthering the interests of sill
yer. to make pubic speeches at different
places under the auspices of said league
that he agreed to do so. and that was the
reason of his presence in Phenix.

Why Gold Does Not Circulate.
''The fact that the banks were able TO
furnish all the gold required for export
up to the middle OF the summer OF 1892
and did so, was because large amounts of
Eold were being paid to them and by them
into the treasury and paid out again in
the course of business, and Il had not be-
gun TO he displaced by the silver issues,
the amount of which had not up to that
time reached such a volume as TO form
an important portion Of the ordinary tran
Factions In the New York market
During the past few weeks and at pres
ent. and for the first time In this admins
tration. various factors are in combination
which have produced low rates OF foreign
exchange and consequent importations
OF gold. The principal ones are the favor
able trade balance, the reduction i'm the
volume OF currency outstanding and I'm
active circulation, and the continued high
rate of interest for call loans at New York
this latter condition being partly a result
OF the preceding situation
THE low rates for foreign exchange
cause importations of gold from London
and other foreign cities, because at these
points exchange on New York is scanty
and rules at very high rates, and the
dealers and drawers here and their as
socates across the ocean find profit
In the difference OF price at which gold
can be obtained abroad and at which
It can be used here. In other words. those

Gus times during the last five years

Modern Medical Achievements.


Great are the achievements of con-
temporary science in the department
of therapeutics. No one who has un-
dertaken to raise family can fail or
at least should fail, to be thankful for
anti-toxine. 1t has really annihilated
the worst terrors of diphtheria, and
grateful voices rejoice in it wherever il
has been used. Its success, says Har-
rer's Weekly, revives hope that the wise
rlen will presently learn to deal effectu-
ally with the bacilli of consumption,
and of cancer, too, if it should turn out,
as begins to be suspected, that cancer
lis communicable disease. Every great
medical discovery seems 10 tend to run
itself somewhat out of breath at the
start. After the operation for appendi-
citis was invented it was thought that
skillful surgeons who knew how to do
it were somewhat too willing to per-
form it, and slit open a good many peo-
pie who would have got on better un-
opened. One hears now that as the nov
city of the operation has worn off, and
the doctors have grown more used to
it, it is used with a ripper discrimina-
tion than at first, and has grown surer
and safer and a little less frequent.
Just now the medical novelty seems to
lie the pursuit of the microbe. 1t is
carried on with an ardor that some
times makes both laymen and doctors
smile. One hears such stories as that
of n man who went to his physician
with slight sore throat, left little of
the lining of it TO be examined, got a
gargle, and went home. That night he
went TO the theater, but was called out
in the middle of the performance and
told that the membrane from his throat
had diphtheretic microbes in it, and
that he must go home, which lie did; !;
but all the folks with sore throats in
the audience who happened not to have
seen a physician staid the show out.
We laugh at the multiplication of pre-
cautions, and we think our medical
masters aspire for us to an impractica-
ble degree of security. But we don't
laugh very hard, and we do as we are
told, confident that after all that is
known has been done for our protection
there will still be great plenty OF
chances for us to take.

If only one pot of tea can be made
for a family taking their luncheon a;
different hours, every housewife should
see to it that the tea does not stand
with the fairgrounds in it longer than
from three to five or seven minutes
After that time pour the tea into an
other pot and throw the grounds
away. If you have only one teapot
infuse the tea in some other vessel
pottery of some kind is best, and pour
into the pot. In this way the injurious
effects of the tannin which is drawn
out of the leaves after longer infu-
sion is avoided, and you save yourself
your friends and family from becoming
tea-maniacs.-N. Y. Evening Post.

From the Lansford Record.
James Lynch. Il prosperous wine
merchant of Galway. traded largely
with Spain, and sent his son thence to
purchase and ship a cargo. The young
man spent the money intrusted to him,
and obtained credit from the SpaniarI.
whose nephew accompanied him on his
departure from Spain, to receive pay for
the wine purchased, and to open trade
with other merchants of Galway, then
one Of the most prosperous towns OF
Europe.
On his return voyage young Lynch
conspircd with the crew of the ship to
throw the young Spaniard overheard in
order to hide his crime.
Several years after. one Of the sailors
dying told Of the drowning. and Walter
Lynch was tried for the crime and con
victed, his father being the judge,
Some of the relatives went to iuterccdc
with the father for the son 5 release from
prison, whore he was awaiting the day of
execution. Fearing that an interview
with them might move him from his
determination to see the law fulfilled. hc
had him executed before their arrival.
On approaching the house, the friends
saw the lifeless body dangling from one
OF the windows. Many say that Lynch
himself was the cXcutioner.
We often hear it said that the term
"Lynch law originated in the west of our
country, when certain Judge Lynch
executed his son; but the occurrence mem
toned above occurred about the time of
the discovery of America, and very prob.
ably gave rise to the term.

NChnnpe of Climnfe.n

For number of years back the idea
has been promulgated among certain
class of ailing eastern people that all
that is necessary for the complete re-
covery of health is change of eli
mate" and the opinion has become
very general that California is the one
place, of all others, where may be found
climatic conditions which are a pana-
cea for all ills of humanity. In regard
to the fallacy of such belief writer
in Popular Science Monthly very truly
says:
what is the sense of telling pa
tient with hole at the top of his lung
to go to California without instruct
,ing him in regard to the location to
(which he should go, or at least what
kind of climate he should look for?
Without some specific information
such n patient is likely to drop into
a place better calculated to shorten
than to prolong his days. To be sure,
lall the climates of California are char
,acterized by dryness exceeding what
is known in the east, and this fact
gives some relative advantages. But
unquestionably the air may be too
dry in certain localities for certain
cases. Is it not too much to expect
patient to find ont what the doctor
who sends him away from home and
friends himself does not know? Be-
sides, there are many constituent ele-
mcnts which enter in to make up what
we call Climate" The first of these
to be mentioned is usually the ther-
mometrical readings, and the "mean"
temperature is generally quoted as
proof positive of superiority when it
varies few degrees one way or the
other from that of another locality
with which it is compared. Now, the
truth is, that to know the mean tenn
perature of place, and to know only
that. is to know very little about its
climate. The physiological effects of
a climate must necessarily include the
degree of humidity, the force and di-
rection of the prevailing winds, the
sunshine and cloudiness; the fogs and
their cteristics-whether thin or
dense, high or low, whether coming
down from the mountains or rolling in
from the sea; besides other unmeas-
urable influences not seen though
felt; all these and more must be appre-
ciated in order to give the single factor
of relative temperature any positive
quality whatever.

The constitution of Utah contains
scTeral new features. For instance, it
provides that juries shall consist of
eight men instead of 12, and that in
civil cases three-fourths of the number
may render u verdict. Another provis-
ion IS to the effect that the state shall
never go into debt exceeding 100000,
except in case of insurrection; and an
other guarantees to every citizen the
right to obtain employment wherever
possible, and makes any interference
with this right a crime. 1t is generally
