CANNOT POISON BY GERMS.
But ChareOt Says It's ImpOs-
sTbIe in Life.

Relative to an article in the Science
Franchise, in which poisoning by mi
crObes is suggested as a possible new
crime, I have interviewed DR.. Charcot,
who was a prominent witness IN the
Bianchini poisoning case
Dr. CharcOt POOh-poohed the state
ments- Certainly, he said, poisoning by
microbes was not only a possible but
was the only means Of communicating
disease.
Communication Of diseases was at
times easy For instance, anthrax was
communicated by applying a little
anthrax matter to a scratch on the
finger.
Again, a friend Of his had caught
scarlatina from a letter written TO him
by little girl who had the disease
In this way disease might be actively
prOpagated from individual to individ-
Ual, but for the purposes Of crime there
were great difficulties IN the way. 1t
required two or three DAYS to prepare
the germs, and that must be done bvan
expert and this not to speak Of the dan
ger to the expert
No amateur would attempt this meth
Cd Of poisoning, and IL he did he would
run greater risk Of detection than he
would If he attempted to poison a per
son IN the ordinary way.
Poisoning by germs" added the doe
tor may and its way into the sensa-
donal novel, but hardly into real life

ard with a querrulous and amused
look.
The mania for giving Jefferson din
ners seems to have broken out afresh.
Richard Croker, the pioneer in the
movement, will give his dinner on the
night of April 13, tomorrow night. 1t
is to cost $40 plate, and there will be
the sparkle of champagne and a menu.
The dinner will be excellent, the wines
of the best, and Richard Croker will
beam upon his own. From the Origi-
nal plan of the Byran Democrats to
give 81 dinner have come two feasts.
The Chicago Platform Democrats will
have dinner on the night of April 10,
in the Grand Central Palace. Tickets
will be 81. and William j. Byran will
be the star speaker. The labor men
will follow this with a non-partisan
Jeffersonian dinner in the same build
ing on the night of April 10, and Mr..
Byran will speak. 1t has leaked out
that George Francis Train was arrang-
ing for dinner to be given in the Mills
House, which is to cost 13 cents
plate: and now there comes the re-
port that number of Brooklyn Demo-
Gratis intend to give a dinner in the
Jefferson Building, in that Borough,
in memory of Thomas Jefferson. On
the whole, dinner-giving seems to be
just about as much of fad now as the
presentation of loving-cups was some
two years ago.
No fewer than seventy-eight SPELL
binders have asked for a chance to
speak at the dinner next Saturday
night, and they've all been ''turned
down" by Mr.. Brewster, who has
chosen his own champions to respond
to toasts, and is expecting some 5000
men at the 81. 90 dinner.

The Sunday School Convention of
the State held in Smyrna Thursday
and Friday, was in every respect a
successful meeting. There was of
necessity much routine work, but as
this contained the inner workings of
the Association was of special interest
to the large number of delegates, and
not without interest to the other at
tendants. There is no grander work
in the interest of good society than
that contained IN the sacrifices and lab
Ors of the Sunday School teacher, and
for this reason we give more than usual
space to the details of the two days
convention, as will be found els ewhere
in this paper. These meetings while a
stimulant to the individual Sunday
School worker, have an important Soc
ial side in bringing members of diff
ferent communities together, as well
as causing an intermingling of the diff
ferent denominations. There were
many striking suggestions brought
out, but there was none more so than that
of President Crosby of a Decision
Day." as related of an experience as
superintendent of Central Presbyter-
ian Church in Wilmington.

The Middletown transcript in an
article on the senatorial election,
wanting an investigation only of the
three Democrats who voted for Mr..
Addicks while the TIMES asks for an
investigation of all, all who voted for,
or wanted to make deal to elect other
than their regular candidate, says:
The position of the SMYRNA TIMES is
unfortunate not only because it lends
its support to Addickism, which is
boodleism In its worst form, but be-
cause in its close relationship to Hon.
John H. Hoffecker its views are inter-
preted as those of the Congressman
also and they mean nothing more nor
less than a weakness in his vote when
he shall come to the polls at the next
tlectlOn-a second term or second
nomination being customary.
Brother Downham was elected to
the Legislature, as he knows, by the
use Of money, held his'seat thorough
out the session, and his virulence to
three men only because they were sup
posed to have been Influenced by Mr..
Addicks, and let others go unmolested
who were ready to do the same thing
for a man of the opposite party, is
queer politics and worse morals. What
is the matter, if fairness is at the bot
tom of the position of the TranscriDt
and Morning NeWs, in the TINES ask
ing for an investigation of the whole
as well as a part? 1t looks as if all
their shafts were aimed at one man,
and If he could be caught, all the
other might go Scott free.
1t seems that the editor of the
Transcript is still afflicted with the
severe attack Of "Mollygrubs" that set
IN on him over two years ago. He is no
"spring chicken" or he might be ex-
cused for coupling the TIMES with Con-
gressman Hoffecker, as in the para
graph quoted above. The TIMES is re-
spoRsible to no clique, nor is it the
mouthpiece of any individual. 1t
moves in its own orbit uninhuenced by
anything beyond its own interpreta-
tlons, and the effort of the Transcript
to make it appear as an exponent of
the views of Congressman Hoffecker
are so gratuitous to not only appear.
but to be ridiculous.
