Antitoxin Treatment.

The report of the medical Superin-
tendenHs TO the Metropolitan Asylums
Board of London on the use of anti
toxin in the treatment of diphtheria
during the year 1896 has just been
presented. It is the second year in
which antitoxin has been used in these
institutions, and confirms the favorable
conclusions reached in the report of
1895. The percentage of mortality from
the disease is greatly diminished; in
post -searlatinal diphtheria it was re-
duced to per cent, the previous av-
erage fos five years before the intro
duction of antitoxin having been 90
per cent. The report lays stress on the
importance of early treatment, point
ing out that on the first day of seizure
dose cf . 900 units will produce results
which 50,000 will not effect in the
fourth. The report in general may be
accepted as an unequivocaf Endorsement
by the highest authority of the virtues
and efficacy of the am1itoxin treatment

Teaching Chamois to Jump.

We had a full half-hour to wait be-
fore the drive began, and were rewarded
by one of the prettiest and most inter-
esting sights and lessons in natural his
tory l have ever seen-namely the sight
of an old chanlois giving its young kid
n lesson in jumping. l must premise by
mentioning that it is very difficult-in
fact impossible-for any one but very
old hand to distinguish a buck chamois
from doe as they are moving, and the
rule is not to shoot at chamois if it has
i kid with it, as that is a pretty sure
sign it is a doe.
A few minutes after we had been sit
ting quietly at our posts. and before the
drive began, the keeper called my at
tention to a chamois' head and neck,
which had suddenly appeared on the sky
line about $50 yards off. It turned out
10 be a doe with a kid. They came along
slowly, not at all thinking of danger,
and not in anyway as yet disturbed by
the drivers who were &, mile or two
away, and who had not yet begun to
drive They both came quietly down the
steep mountainside until they came to
place where there was q drop of about
twelve feet down; and then took place
the following beautiful sight, which was
also witnessed by S. and his jaeger from
where they sat. The old chamois
Jumped down, as a matter of course, but
the kid "funked," and would not follow.
The old one looked up at it, and then
tent back another way to the ledge
on which the kid was standing, and
again jumped down as to show the
young one how to do it, and looking up
to it as much as to say, Come along,
you little stupid, it won't hurt you.
But the kid funked again and would
not follow. The mother thereupon re-
turned a second time to the ledge and
proceeded to push the kid with her head,
and made it jump down, and then fol-
lowed it herself. Then came the climax
the old one and the young one both
went round again to the same ledge, and
the old one jumped down first, and this
time the kid followed Immediately, hav-
ing been taught that it was safe and
easy enough.-Badminton Magazine.

A BRAWLER.
Negro Frank Cook Started a Row
and Was Roughly Handled.

About 10 o'clock last night wild
and woody brawl occurred on street,
between Ninth and Tenth, occasioned
by the vile mouth of the well-knoWn
black tough, Frank Cook.
It seems that a young man named
Beadle was walking with his mother
and a number Of young men from
Stockton and San Francisco, when
Cook. who with a number of colored
companions, was parading the street,
accosted him and called him a vile
name.
Young Beadle did not wait for fur

feet to the best advantage, went for

gang interfered, and Beadle's friends
went to the rescue, and quicker than
a flash a dozen men, white and black
We're all mixed up.
Cook was shining mark for Beadle
and his friends, and when he finally
freed himself from the crowd and
made a run for liberty, his wardrobe
was in tatters and bumps stood out

bumps before.

Guilty at an early stage, but owing to
the crowd, he was unable to capture

street. But he ran the wrong way.
officer Naghel barred his passage, and
in flash the fugitive was on his back
and the wristlets closed over his hands
with a click.
The crowd had by this time become
thoroughly excited, and the officer did

Oner out of the way

say he was a pal of Joe Davis, a mem

a number of companions were passing
along the north levee near Thirteenth
street, when they were attracted by
some boys clothing lying on the shore
of a pond caused by overflow water
from the American River.
Concluding that an accident had
happened, the boys spread the alarm
and in a short time fully 500 people
lined the banks of the pond, which was
eight feet deep. After making several
attempts a young man named Tryon
located the bodies, which, when brought
to the surface, proved to be those OF
Charley Grant and Harry Roarrick.
1t has been learned that several
small boys accompanied the two un-
fortunates, but became frightened
when the little fellows walked into
deep water and seizing their clothes
ran away and resolved to keep quiet.
