DRINK HOW MUCH WATER?
Amount Varies With the Occupation
Engaged In.
(From the Journal of Hygiene.)

(From the Journal of Hygiene.)
According to Prof. Allen we should
drink from one-third to two-ffths as
many ounces as we weigh pounds
Therefore, for man weighing 16S
pounds, there would be required Sc to
GA ounces daily, or from one and one-halt
to four pints. This is a very indefinite
answer. The amount of water required
depends on the season of the year, the
amount of work done and the kind OF
food eaten. In hot weather we re-
quire more than in cold, because of the
greater loss through the skin, though
this is in part made up by the lesser
amount passed away through the kid
neys. If man labors very hard he
requires more than if his labor is light.
If the food is stimulating and salty
more water is required than if it is
bland.
In most cases our instincts tells us
how much water to drink far better
than any hard or fixed rule.
Impure water is one of the most dan
gerous drinks. If the water is bad it
should be boiled and put away in bot
ties we'll corked in an ice chest, and IN
addition one should eat all the fruit one
can if fruit agree. Fruit contain not
only pure water, but salts which are
needed to carry on healthy the functions
of life.

DOCK BLACK TO HANG FORRAPE
He Finally Confessed His Crime to Mr..
Henry Blount.

Snow Hill, n. c., Aug. 1S.-(SpeciaD-
If was Dock Black, and not Dock
Rlount. who was convicted at Green
court last Friday of rape and sentenced
TO be hung on the first Wednesday in
September. When the judgment was
pronounced, Dock Black protested his in
nocence: but in the afternoon Mr.. Henry
Blount visited him in his cell and after
talking to him a few minutes about hay-
ing to meet a judge at the Bar of Eter-
nifty who knew all things and who would
require no witnesses, and whose judg-
ment would send him either to Heaven
or to hell the doomed man became very
penitent and confessed his crime, and
seemed to be very deeply moved and
impressed with what Mr.. BlOunt had
said. He was tried as Dock Black. but
his name is Kelly Dock and his home is
near Fayetteville; but having left b1
near Fayetteville; but having shot a
negro there he fled to Wilson and chang
ed his name to Dock Kelly. After re-
naming in Wilson a few days he broke
into a store, and was captured and con-
fined in Jail, but soon broke out of pri-
son and went to Greene county, where
he assumed the name of Dock Black. He
is about twenty two years old, and has
bad face-an expression in perfect har-
mony with the terrible and shocking
crime for which he is to give up his life.

Mediator
YOKOHAMA, June 1S.-It has been
stated that Mr.. Buck, the recently ap-
pointed representative of the United
States in Japan, is acting as mediator
between Japan and Hawaii. There ap-
pears to be no truth whatever in the
statement Mr. Buck left San Francis
co on May 29th-so far as can be ascer-
tained-in company with the new Am
erican Minister to Hawaii, and broke
his Journey by brief sojourn in Ho-
nolulu, where he now is. He will prob
ably take the steamer which started
from San Francisco on the Sth inst,
and which calls at Hawaii en- route,
leaving the latter place on the 10Th.
Thus his arrival in Japan may be eX-
pected about the 26th inst. He is not
taking any mediatory part between ia
pan and Hawaii. No occasion for medl-
alton has arisen. 1t seems not improba-
BILE that his own Government, desiring
him to become familiar with the Ha-
waiian view of the questions pending
between the Republic and this En-
pire. instructed him to regulate his
tourney as he is now regulating it, but
that its merely conjecture.
