Latest CONSUMPTION Cure.

The unending procession of cures for
consumption has been heightened by
the addition of a discovery in Virginia.
A physician claims that he was called
to treat a feeble consumptive patient
who had been bitten in the face by Il
snake while the consumptive, unable to
walk, was crawling to a spring to drink.
The physician promptly gave a hypo-
dermic injection of permanganate of
potash to counteract the effect Of the
poison. The remedy was effective as to
the snake bite, and, wonderful to relate,
had such general effect upon the pa
emit that the physician continued to
give injections, and in a short time the
person bitten had entirely recovered
from consumption, the permanganate
of potash having killed the microbes Of
the lungs. The rescued individual soon
gained in weight and tipped the scales
at 140 pounds, a gain of 45 pounds. Since
then t~uberculous rabbits and guinea
pigs have been cured by the use of per-
manganate of potash. And they had not
BEEN bitten by snakes, either. so the
snake venom cannot have the credit of
a cure. The press dispatches do not tell
what sort of snake-bite remedy the doc
tor Who made the discovery is in the
habit of administering to himself.

Chance TO Enter the Naval Service.

A new policy has peer inaugurated by
the navy department for securing cdpa-
bic and well-instructed men fer the en-
listed force of the naval service. The
enlisted men of the navy, including all
grades, have heretofore been taken from
the merchant services and the appren-
tees school and from men picked up
anywhere, who were enrolled with the
rating of landsmen. The landsman, as
a rule, was a greenhorn, and ignorant
of all details of life on s%hipboard. They
We're taken or men-Of-War and broken
in, sometimes after great trouble. Often
it was two or three years before they
were entitled to be ranked as ordinary
or able seamen. Coal beavers were en-
listed from all sections, without regard,
as a rule, to competency or sea expert
ence.
Now the navy proposed taking men
without any experience on shipboard,
~instructing them in all the details of the
duties required of men on the largest
ships, and after they have become quail

send them to the e~ngine-room force Of
regular ships as they may be required.
AS a result of the disposition of expe-
rienced sailors to engage in private
work, the navy is now short over 1000
e and several hundred apprentices,
but in the latter case little attempt has
been made to increase the force on ac-
count of the lack of sufficient quarters
at the training stations.

British Paw the Freiuht.

A glance at the financial administra-
ton of the Transvaal is not without in
terest. Mr.. Chamberlain draws atten-
ton to this matter in a dispatch sent to
the high commissioner last May. After
pointing out that the Uitlanders have
to bear a burden of taxation exceeding
$50 per head-nearly $40, 900, 900 per an
mum is raised from fewer tina $50 per-
sons-the colonial secretary goes on to
show how part of this revenue is spent.
Between 1888 and March, 1898, a sum of
$11, 800, 900 had been advanced to officials
and was unaccounted for. But perhaps
the most startling item concerns the Sc
cret service money. On this point Mr..
Chamberlain says: THE secret service
fund appears in the current estimates
at $780, 900, but even this sum-more
than the amount of the secret service
money voted in the British imperial es-
timates-appears to be habitually eX-
ceeded. In 1898, $212, 500 was spent, and
in 1896 no less than 1858, 1856" The gen.
eral belief in England is that the money
is largely spent in anti-British propa-
gandism in Cape Colony and Natal.

f needed measures.

Ex-senator Call has informed the in
dustrial commission that the Standard
Oil Company bought a seat in the SEN
ate for James P. Taliaferro for 500, 600
at the hands of the Florida. legislature.
The ex-senator asks the commission to
investigate the matter. AS the commits
sion has nothing to do with such a top
ic, the SENATE may be asked to take up
the charge. There is no sort of doubt
that the Standard would buy a seat in
the senate if it could, and there may be
some foundation for the charge in this
instance. The company bought a seat
for Brice. once the Democratic senator
from Ohio. 1t is also said that the Mon
tana rival of Senator Clark will go be-
fore the senate to prove the senator was
elected by bribery. Both Senator Tallia-
ferro and Senator Clark are Democrats.
And their accusers are Democrats.
