Whom yellow Fever Attacks.

1T is generally believed here" says
New Orleans dispatch to the Balti-
more Sun, that full-blooded negroes
are practically exempt from yellow fe-
yer, as much as they are prone to
smallpox infection. There is no rule
by which it can be stated who are es-
pecially subject to the infection. In a
general way, it might be said that fat
men and women who are in the habit
of using stimulants to excess are more
liable to catch the disease than their
thinner and more abstemious neigh
bors. But in an epidemic of the fever
children seem to be the most frequent
victims, and especially girls. There
have been comparatively few cases Of
male adults taking the disease.

In q Roman museum Is a toilet case
In which some fair Lady kept her
combs, brushes and paint pots about
twenty-five hundred years ago. This
cista, as 1t is called, was dug up In Pal
estrina, the ancient Praeneste, and is
beautifully engraved with pictures rep
resenting the adventures Of the argo-
nauts.
These argonauts sailed to the land
of the ebyrkes and arrived very thirs-
ty, but were prevented from drinking
at the spring until one of them, Pollux,
had knocked out King Amycus In a
boxing match without gloves. So the
argonauts resolved to keep in practice.
This Palestrina cista represents one
Of them banging away at a punching
bag hung from tree limb, while fat
old Silenus mimics him.
This bag, by Its shape and appearance,
was presumably filled with grain, and
was not so we'll adapted for develop
Ing qulckness as the modern windbag;
but it was pretty good for 1920 years
ago, after all. Perhaps some scientist
will yet dig up pneumatic tired bicy-
Gle or repeating rifle.
George Washington's false teeth
were among the first ever used In
America after the rediscovery OF the
art of making them by some French
man.
But they were not exactly a novelty,
in one sense At any rate, there have
been commodious false teeth which
must have been built before the begin
ming Of the Christian era.
AS for safety pins, needles and sue.
like small Yankee notions, the Troglo
dytes had them long before there was
any such thing as history invented. It's
hard to prove with certainty that any
novelty Is really new.

tentous and notable kiss of modern
times. It was no long, lingering, passion
ate Nethersolian kiss, but just a short,
sharp meeting of masculine lips and
bearded face, yet its echo was undOubt-
edIy heard in every court in Europe.
To the American mind it was rather
ridiculous, this exchange of kisses be-
tween a tall, gray haired old man and
bearded young one. We are prompted
to laugh. But to the French and Rus
slams it is a common, everyday express
sion of friendship, in this instance high
ly significant as suggesting the intimate
relations Of the two nations. When the
story of that kiss was flashed over the
wires, all France went wild with joy
Cannons were fired, fireworks were set
off, flags were hung out, and there was
a general rejoicing. Paris pirouetted on
its toes and shouted "Vive le Russell
until it was hOarse. Germany turned up
its nose at the smack, and John Bull,
glaring enviously eastward, scowIed
grimly and took a tighter grip on his
sword hiIt. AS for Uncle Sam, he
smiled broadly at the sight and mutter-
ed, "Waal, I'll be gosh durned!'
1t might seem strange to US to see two
great rulers greet each other in this
fashion, but the salute osculatory plays
an important part in continental diplo-
macy. Whenever two friendly poten-
tates meet, they embrace. 1t would be q
breach Of etiquette if they did not. All
Frenchmen and all Russians, in fact,
kiss their male friends on meeting aft
er an absence. It is d national custom,
and two men kissing each other on the
street attract no more attention than
would two Americans shaking hands on
Broadway. However, we cannot regard
the spectacle Of the czar and the French
president greeting each other after the
fashion of two young lovers without al
lowing a snicker, at least, to escape US

Heavyweight 7. p. Gully and
Middleweight Henry DaIby
Fight to a Finish.

There was a hot time in the store room
of the KimbaH Piano company yesterday
afternoon about 4:3O. The different mus
icaI instruments did not play the tune.
but T. P. Gully and Henry Dalby gave
an exact representation of what the well
known song really describes. DaIby
went into the store and asked Mr.. Gully
what he owed him on a certain business
transaction.
Where are your receipts?" said Gully.
Never mind the receipts, but tell me
how much I owe you" was the reply.
Il want to see your receipts
Il won't show the receipts unless I
find a mistake in yourbill,'' said DaIby.
Yes you will and then the fun com
menced.
Mr.. Gully weighs about 225 and Dalby
about 15O but the differences in weights
of the two men seemed to make no differ
ence with either, and after a gOodly
amount of words Gully hit Daby in the
face. That was the signal for war and
they mixed. The scrap was lively from
start to finish, and after a few minutes
Gully found himself cut about the face
and blood was streaming from his nose.
Dalby's eye was closed and he had a
shanty under it. Nothing has been done
in the way of arrests as yet.

suburb. He has for his parishioners
such men as the McCormicks and other
wealthy Chicagoans.
DR.. James Gore King Mcclure was
born in 184S at Albany and is of Scotch
descent. He received his preparatory
education at the Albany academy and
was afterward graduated from Yale
university. He took a postgraduate
course in Princeton Theological semi
nary and was graduated with high hon
Ors. His first pastorate was in New
Scotland, n. Y. After five years of hard
work he went abroad in 1879 and spent
two years in study and travel. When
he returned, he resumed his ministerial
work in Lake Forest, which was at that
time an incOnspicuous little place on
the outskirts Of the western metropolis.
Since then he has labOred with signal
success. He has gained wide reputa-
ton for eloquence, and he has seen his
church grow to be the largest and
wealthiest in Lake county.
1t was but natural that the pastor of
the Presbyterian church of Lake Forest
should be somewhat intimately connect
ed with the work of the Presbyterian
university there, and this has been so.
In recognition of his many services the
university conferred upon him the de-
gree of doctor of divinity For 10
months he acted as president of the uni
versity previous to the coming of Dr.
John NJ Coulter, whom he succeeds
DR.. Mcclure is not to give up his pas
toral work entirely and will still con-
