DAYLIGHT.

Morning brings joy and happiness to
the person in health; TO the person out
of health, after night of restlessness,
morning brings only weakness, weari-
ness, pains and depression. The mind
is full of gloomy forebodings and there
is constant feeling Of impending disas-
ter. There are thousands of people
who thus needlessly suffer. Look about
you; accept the gift of health freely
held out to you. Have you ever seen
one of DR.. Greene,s letters to invalfds?
They are full Of Valuable information.
Write him, describing your symptoms

street. New York city. who is the most
successful physician of our time in cur
ing disease. You can consult him by
letter free, and can be treated and cur
ed at your home by his wonderful rem
edies. Do not delay a moment longer,
but write now.

WESLEYAN BASKET BALL TEAM

WESLEYAN BASKET BALL TEAM.
Middletown, Feb. 4.-The report that
the Wesleyan basket ball team had
been withdrawn from the intercol-
legiate league, is denied by the athletic
authorities at Wesleyan. Captain
Pratt Of the team said tonight that
owing to the storm last Thurs lay
night the game scheduled with Yale at
New Haven was cancelled and the
game was defaultsd by Yale. The team
will play a game with Trinity basket
ball team when the date is announced
by the Trinity team. The Wesleyan
team has suspended practice owing to
the midwinter examinations, and it is
therefore probable that the team will
not play again this winter.
The team is scheduled to play IN Wa

There has been little inquiry of the At

walls that the road will go to the reorgan-
ization committee of the Union Pacific
railroad. There is a legal question as to
whether the purchasers of the road will
not have certain privileges over the Denver
and Cheyenne extensions which will virtu-
ally amount to franchise, and to the
measure of these privileges, increase the
value of the road to the purchasers.

HAvANA's TERRIBLE STATE.

Sanitation.


Sanitation.
In his last report to the marine hospital
bureau Sanitary Inspector Drummer, sta
toned at Havana, warns the United States
of the insanitary condition of that city
which. he says. is constantly growing worse
as the death rate is constantly increasing.
1T may be truly said" the report states,
that there is absolutely no attention paid
to sanitation. and the entire disregard of
personal cleanliness becomes more appar-
ent every dry. All food stuffs are now be-
yond the reach Of the poor, and this con-
dition Of affairs Is demonstrated in the NOR
tallty table in this report, although the
number of deaths from starvation as stated
there is but one-tenth of the actual num-
Der of deaths occurring from that cause.
I believe 1t to be my duty to state at this
time that II this condition of affairs con-
TIMES to exist during the coming winter
and spring this city will become still a
greater menace to the health of the United
States. The people as whole now present
every evidence of bad physical conditions;
the anaemic condition of the children is
startling and their abject Indifference to
their bad sanitary environment doubly in
sures their mortality"

In the park first named there are about
ninety acres. The total space under cover
is bout 130, 600 square yards. The expo

by Rene caused a sensation among the
assembled savants. Interest was addei
by the introduction of the patient to the
congress. Rehe said the man had been
stabbed in the heart. In the ordinary
course death would have been certain in a
very short time. The patient, was, how
ever, hurriedly conveyed to the hospital.
Rehe laid bare the heart and found a
wound on the right side of the organ.
He sewed up the orifice and then applied
general treatment for arresting a hem
orrhage. The heart worked violently dur
ing the operation, but despite the COM
motion of the organ the patient made
good progress and soon recovered.
