A Russian journal that has recently
come under our notice calls attention
to the fact that for some twenty years
past the inhabitants of malarial To-
cality in the government of Kharkov
have used powdered crabs with great
success in the case of fevers. The pow
der is prepared in the following way:
Live crabs are poured over with the
ordinary whisky until they get asleep;
then they are put on bread pan in
hot oven, thoroughly dried and pull
verified. and the powder passed through
"a fine sieve. One dose, teaspoonful,
is generally sufficient to cure the in
termittent fever; in very obstinate
cases second dose is required. Each
dose is invariably preceded by glass
of aloe brandy IS purgative. The
powder is used in that locality in pre-
ference to quinine. So says the jour
nal. We will not vouch for it.

look with unutterable scorn upon ev-
erything the people of this country do,
themselves or through their represen-

THE FEvER's RECORD.
Yellow Jack Makes a New High
Water Mark.

Yellow Jack Makes a New High
Water Mark.
New Orleans, Oct. 8. - Yesterday
was a record breaker here. AS early
as 6 o'clock as many cases had been
reported as on Wednesday when the
fever had reached high water mark
At the same time there had been some
fever deaths reported, with a couple
of patients in very critical condition.
The deaths are among those who
have had little or no attention, and at
least three OF the fatalities are among
the Italian population. The worst
case of the day, however, was that OF
Elijah Parks, living on Custom House
street. Parks died and his death no.
tice appeared in the morning papers.
Friends attended the preparation of
the corpse for burial, and a wake was
held. An expert was at once sent to
the scene. His experienced eye en-
abled him Immediately to diagnose
the case as yellow fever. The couriers
of the board of health have been in
dustriouSly searching for those who
attended the wake or had anything to
do with the dressing of the corpse. 1t
is fair to assume that this case will
still further the infection. The record
for the day was forty-nine new cases
and five deaths.
A number of new foeci are disclosed
in the returns. There is one new case
at Nita Youma.

country have been coping with MILL
merry matters in the way Of theatre
hats and feather trimmings the French
government has recommended that its
horses be put into sunbonnets. The
straw manufacturers have been doing
a large business in consequence, and
summer mortality among horses has
largely decreased. The amusement
awakened in the beholder at this odd
gear is but an echo of that a century
ago when men first appeared carrying
umbrellas.

In an address at Ashfield, Massachu-
sets, Prof. Charles Eliot Norton Of
Harvard University considered the
village hoodlum" and the means for
his suppression. The village hood
Ium" makes himself more conspicuous
than the "city tough" When he be-
comes sufficiently depraved to enjoy his
bad eminence he is more demorall-
zing figure than his city cousin of the
same tendencies, and he is more dan
gerous to society inasmuch as the OH
GERS of the law in rural communities
are generally less efficient than IN cit
les. AS a means of suppressing the
Village hoodlum," Professor Norton
suggested the organization of body
of law-abiding citizens in each village
or township to give definite support to
the constituted authorities in suppress
sing lawlessness in all its stages By
this it is evident from other parts OF the
address the speaker meant particularly
the suppression of petty acts of law
lessness by youngsters who are the
children of neglectful parents and who
have in them the material OF which
full-fedged Village hoodlums' are
made.

Madrid, Oct 9.-The cabinet has de-
cided upon the immediate recall of
Gen. Weyler from Cuba. A decree
was issued appointing Capt. Gen.
Blanco Y Arenas, marquis OF Pena-
Plata, governor general OF the island.
According to the Ell Heraldo 10000
reinforcements will accompany Gen.
lBlanco to Cuba.
In the course of the cable message
sent by Capt. Gen. Weyler to Premier
lSagasta, placing his post in Cuba at
the disposal of the government, he
said: IF the functions with which
they had entrusted me had been mere
ly those of governor general OF Cuba
/ should have FASTENED to resign. But
the tWo-fold character Of my mission
and my duty as commander-in-ch
in the face of the enemy prevent my
rendering a resignation. Neverthe-
less, although | can rely upon the alb
solute, unconditional support of the
AutCnomist and Constitutional parties,
as well as upon public opinion, this
would be insufficient without the con-
fidence of the government, now more
than ever necessary to me after the
cenSure of which / have been made
the object by the members and jour
nails of the Liberal party and by pub
lie opinion in the United States, which
latter is largely influenced by the
former. This confidence would be
necessary to enable me to put an end
to the affair which has already been
Virtually concluded from out lines at
Juaraco to Cape Antonio"
Senior Sagasta replied: Il thank
you for your frankness, and wish to
assure you that the government rec
ognizeS your services and values them
as they deserve, but it thinks q
change of policy, in order to succeed,
required the authorities should be at
once with the ministry. That has
nothing to do with the confidence felt
in you by the government, but the
Liberals have always said that the re-
sponsibility does not fall upon those
who carry it out, but upon the govern
ment inspiring it. l shall scommuni-
cate your communication to the gov
eminent shortly
Havana, Oct 9.-Gen. Weyler gave
Ian emphatic and absolute denial to the
reports that he would resist removal
from his command i'll Cuba, and in
certain contingencies might espouse
the Carlist cause.

CLEVELAND DELUGED.

Bursting of Water Main Causes
Considerable Damage.
Cleveland, Ohio, Oct. 9.-The biggest
water main in the city broke with a
crashing noise in the down town dis
trict and practically paralyzed bust
ness in that part of the city. Paving
stones and dirt shot into the air and
the column of water rose thirty feet
above the sidewalk The entire street
was soon flooded to depth of three
feet, and the basement of every
house and business block was
flooded. 1t was fully an hour before
the water could be turned Off The
damage will amount to thousands OF
dollars.

Weyler said some time ago that the
case against EVangelina Cisnoras was
in it's preliminary stages. At that time
the young lady had been in jail eleven
months, the companion of vicious wom-
en-, half starved, and subject to the ut
most degradation. There is enough IN
these facts to warrant the interference
of every government and every man
and woman having respect for common
decency Assassination and worse out
