The Bacterial Era.

An Italian physician who has devoted
years of study to the diseases that prevail
in tropical countries is of the opinion that
every one of them peculiar TO those reg .ons
is Of parasitic origin, or, in other words
the result of bacterial attacks, and that
with the progress Of sanitation and by
giene, there Will soon be no reason why
white men cannot live as safely and as
long in hot lands as in those where tho
temperature is varied by seasons Of cold
An interesting and surprising conclusion
which he has reached is that sunstroke
like malarial levers, cholera and the
plague, is produced not by the sun ac-
ton, but by living germs; that it is an in
fictitious disease and not an accident.

JAIL NOTES.

Joseph Durkin, OF Bar Hsrbor, got
drunk and disorderly last week, and came
up to the county Jail to board out fine
of 50 and costs.
Arthur Bowden, Martin Phillips and
George Moore, of this city, were arrested
on tuesday for drunkenness and dis
orderly conduct. They were found guilty
and sentenced hy Judge Peters to pay a
fine of 50 and costs. They paid it and
were discharged.
Howard Bunker, OF Bar Hsrbor, was
! placed in the county jail on Thursday,
having been captured in Trenton by
/ Sheriff Hooper. Bunker, it will be re-
membered, escaped after having been put
in the Bar Hsrhor lookup for assaulting
| his wife. He was taken to Bar Harbor
for trial on Wednesday.
City Marshal silyy was looking for a
sneak thief "Wednesday without the least
/ clue as TO he Wherea bouts of his quarry.
4 man went into Starkey's harness and
4 trunk store on Water street on Wednes-
day morning and inspected the stock Of
travelling bags. He found one that suited
3
to the door to show il to his wife. He
hasn't been seen by Mr.. Starkey since
that tine; and the storekeeper hadn't
any recollection OF the mans personal
appearance to help the city marshal in
his search
Deputy Sheriff Gem. of Bucksport,
brought over the alleged erayon portrait
shsrpers, who have been, it is thought,
working the State for some time.
They viii serve out sentences of
ninety days, and costs. The men gave
their names as William Alger and Fred
Griffin Ghe offense of Which they were
convicted was defrsuding the Robinson
house OF board bill. They were caught
in Plymouth. People who gave them a
photograph and fifty cents with the
promise to pay another half dollar when
the beautiful crayon likeness OF the
photograph was delivered, are feeling
that they have been duped, although the
convicts claim that they We're acting in
good faith.
Mrs. Mary Ayles, OF West Sullivan, WAS
fined 3 and costs by Judge Peters, on
Saturday. for assault and battery com
mitted on Mrs. Annie HurIhurt, OF West
sullivan, about year ago. The trial oc-
cupied the greater part Of Saturday morn
ing and many interesting facts of local
history were developed hy it. Mrs. Hurl-
burt, he victim Of the assault Is now con-
fined III the county jail, serving thirty
days sentence for SANDER. 1t WAS shown
by The trial that she had provoked Mrs.
AyIes by abusive and filthy language re-
pested again and again, and by entering
Mrs. Ayles premises after being warned
not to trespass there. In a moment OF
excitement, Mrs. Ayes threw a stick OF
wood at Mrs. Hurlburt to brighten her
away. so Mrs. Ayles alleges. The stick
struck Mrs iurlhurt on the side of the
head. q. B. stuart was attorney fer
the complainant; {. II. Drummey for
the respondent, who admitted having
committed the deed and simply pro-
duced evidence TO show that 1t was
provoked. In this connection it may
be stated that the annie Hurlburt' re-
ferred to in this paper last week was Mrs.
Annie Hurlburt, and not young lady of
the same name living in the same town.
