While our Mr.. Vetelson
was in the East he made it a
point to go to the head office
of the Bradley & Hubbard
people and place himself in
touch with the 10000 de-
signs in the famous make Of
lamps. AS a result, we are
now unpacking what we con-

MONGOOSE AND SNAKES.

The readers of the Advertiser should |
understand that there is no real politi- |
cal campaign in progress, as the word
campaign is commonly defined. Until
Congress has passed an organic act,
there can be none.
But there is the usual political race
track here, over which the candidate
horses may be exercised and trained and
examined. No books" have been made,
and no purses" offered. Nor will there
be until Congress shall open the track
to the public, and placard the prizes.
The Anti-Resident, Anti-Republican
platform. ,Anti-Missionary Government,
two-year-old colt, known as Special
Agent" is now on the track, and his
Jockey seems to be greatly disturbed,
because no other animal is put upon
the track, with which the colt can be
speeded The colts records against
time are carefully noted and posted on
the Bulletin boards in the betting
rooms The best record so far, is a
solitary race for the Blue BlaZeS BRAY
cry stane, offered by nobody, with
running leap over Spanish hurdle,
composed OF fixed bayonets. The train
er, with an eye to effect upon the ad-
mirers of war horses, is perfecting the
organs of the colt, so that he will, like
the Scriptural war horse, smell the bat
tie afar and cry cha! hal or, when
jumping the expansion ditch, cry hip,
hip, hurrah!'
The friends of the colt are suspicious
that mortal enemies may be lurking
about in the woods, with intent to do
him harm. 1T is whispered that Mr..
Dole has been seen providing around his
stable at night, holding big knife in
his boot, with the malicious purpose OF
hamstringing the high-strung colt. The
Lord forbid such iniquity.
There is no real campaign at pres
ent. although the Advertiser makes
believe" that there is. Its object in dis
GUESSING neutrality and other purely
historical subjects is, firstly, to develop
certain political situations for what are
called Interior purposes, and, secondly,
and chiefly to put before this isolated
community political comedy titled
the Intrepid Carpet-bagger," rich IN
its inventions and ludicrous in its dis
positions and situations. In the alb
sence of any thing else of the sort
which might amuse us, there is no rea-
son whatever for letting the curtain
remain down over this most laughable
comedy in real life.

About Typhoid Fever.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
Why all this stir about typhoid fever in
the army camps, where it IS so well known
that typhoid fever never becomes obsolete
except in localities where the drinking wa
ter is filtered, as in Hamburg and other
European cities Hamburgs death rate of
typhoid is but five or nine out of every
100000 population. And so unless boiled or
filtered water is used in our CAMPS there
should be no surprise manifested by the
appearance of typhoid. There is scarcely a
town in the United States whose mortuary
reports fail to disclose victims of typhoid.
All over Virginia it claims a fair percen-
tage of those who persist in the belief that
well water is pure because it sparkles and
Is clear and cool. Ten years ago while at
Atlanta, Ca, / met an acquaintance who
was nursing a family of three-a fourth
member had already been carried off by
the disease. These people were using well
water. l recommended boiling it. That
was done, and all three began to improve
on the second day, and their recovery was
uninterrupted by siEgle setback
Milk should not be used by soldiers un-
less they get it direct from the cow Mos.
milkmen will water their milk and the wa
ter some of them use is likely to contain
germs of the fever.

HIDE M MARKET,

In our advertising columns will
be found an announcement of EX.
Senator John j. Ingalls, forthcom-
ing book, entitled "America's War
For Humanity" Canvassing agents
will find in it book of remarkable
interest, and certainly of extra
ordinary STABILITY. The history of
the war is told in picture and
story, and In way that always
characterizes the brilliant pen of
Senator ingalls,. In narrating the
incidents of this war he finds grand
scope for his superb descriptive
and analytical powers. The theme
is worthy of the author, and the
author is worthy of the theme. 1t
is published by N. ID. Thompson
Publishing Co., of st. Louis, Mo. 1t
will be monumental work that
will not only be everywhere read,
but it will be monument to his
genius that will outlive in history
his brilliant senatorial career. The
subscription book trade and the
canvassing agent are fortunate in
the fact that an author of such
rare ability has been enlisted in its
interest.
