al oversight, a few pages further on
in connection with another matter it is
noticed Enchinine which is mentioned as
being useful for children, is also frequent
IL well borne by adults, who cannot re-
tain the ordinary quinine preparation. The
use of salicylate of soda in the haemoglob-
inuric fevers of Africa is mentioned and
it is curious fact that many of the I'M
classed fevers of Hongkong yield to this
Oh ug.
The, writer believes that quinine is the
most efficient drug, but cannot agree With
the author that arsenic is useless in fever
ane only of benefit in the sequelae. In
many cases where quinine has failed a
combination of Arsenic and Bark
(Which contains many Alkaloids besides
auinine) hasnbeen found most efficient.
The consideration of the other subjects
with which the author deals will be taken
UP later, but they have not the same local
interest as the portion of the book with
which this review deals.

SECURES CONTROL OF ESTATE.
Court Dee ares That Harriet E. Allen Is tn
Widow Of the Railroad Man.

Boston, Jan. 2.-Mrs. Harriet Allen
was declared by Justice McKim of the
probate court yesterday to be the law
full wife of Elbridge G. Allen, former
superintendent of the New York, New
Haven and Hartford railroad. This
decision not only confirmed her in her
cs,aI.n of being the legal wife, but es-
taOlished the legitimacy of her son, FL
bridge G. Allen, Jr., who is made heir
to the estate, which amounts to about
100000. Mrs. Allen is appointed ad-
ministratrix. Mrs. Flora Allen, claim
ant of the estate, took the decision
coolly. 1t is expected that her counsel
will appeal from the decision. She was
married to Allen in New York year ago.
superintendent Allen committed sui
eide by shooting in New York hotel last
September. Mrs. Harriet E. Allen of
Portland last week petitioned the court
to be appointed administrative, claiming
rights as the legal widow of the de-
ceased for herself and 22-year-old son.
She claimed that she had come from
Portland to Boston with Mr.. Allen and
was married in 1872 by Rev. Mr.. Muir
ray at Park Street church, but had no
records of the union, neither were any
found in the public records of the city.
Opposing the petition of wife No. was
another entered by Mrr Flora E. Allen,
who was married publicly to Mr.. Allen
In New York last January. She claimed
to be the lawful widow and declared
that the woman from Maine had never
been married to Mr.. Allen.
In turn the first wife contended that as
her husband had never received a di-
vorce from her he had no right to marry
a second time, and therefore she claimed
that her rival had no claim, as her mar
riage was illegal.
1t is thought likely that the case will
be carried to the supreme court on an
appeal. The Allen estate is estimated
as being about 100000.

THE BUSINESS WORLD.
Failures For 1899 the Smallest In Number
For Seventeen Years Past.

Holiday quiet and stock taking impart
an appearance of dullness to general dis
tributive trade, broken, however, by fair
activity in recorder business to fill up
stocks depleted by the heaviest holiday
trade that has ever been experienced.
Anticipation of spring trade wants has
given more than ordinarily active ap-
pearance to business in dry goods at
New York, while in industrial lines the
efforts of manufacturers to keep up with
filled order books is resulting in un-
usually active operations.
Following the furry in money stocks
and in some lines of speculative COM
modities, has come, as was expected, a
more cheerful tone, and a firming up Of
quotations is noticed in cotton and other
staples.
The strength Of textiles is still fea-
ture, which finds justification in current
statistics of large seasons receipts and
sales of wool and in reports of enlarged
old and heavily increased new capacity
In manufacturing lines. Another ex-
ample of this is found in the fact that
year aggregate nearly double those of
year ago the stock held at the close of
the year is actually smaller than it was
at the end of 1898.
One of the last of the manufactured
textiles to feel the impetus of expanding
demand, cotton thread, has this week
been advanced.
Root and chna OF ficfi 20 f,,
crease of shipments from Boston of
100000 cases over the preceding year,
and, although recent mild weather has
dulled demand, the outlook in this trade
is in hides and leathe. and one of con-
siderable strength.
Business failures fer the week num-
Der 220, as compared with 21S in this week
year ago and 297 in 1897. For the year
failures are the smallest in number for
II years past and, were it not for few
heavy financial suspensions in Decem-
Der, liabilities, which will exceed those
of 1892 slighty, would have been the
smallest for II years past.
Though the years record is not as yet
complete, and the returns as to assets
and liabilities are sill more or less
vague, it may be stated with fair de-
gree of certainty that the total number
of failures, based upon complete re-
turns for II months and partial returns
for December, will be about $780, a total
smaller than in the preceding year by
II percent and rs percent fewer than in
1897.
AS regards liabilities, while the show
ing is not so good as expected, there is
a reasonable hope Of the aggregate not
being much in excess of $120 100000,
which would be Is percent less than in
1898 and % percent smaller than in 1897

A Grizzly at Bay.
-[Eric Duncan in the New York Wi

In the November Century Mr.. Ernest
Seton Thompson began "The Biography
of a Grizzly" telling of the days of the
monsters cubhood. In the December
number he tells ofthe days ofhis strength.
The story opens with this anecdote-
which is grizzly in more senses than one:
Wahb's third summer had brought
him the stature of a large-sized bear,
though not nearly the bulk and power
that in time were his. He was very light
colored now, and this was why Spahwat,
a Shoshone Indian who more than once
hunted him, called him the Whitebear,
or Wahb.
SPahwat was a good hunter, and as
soon as he saw the rubbing tree on the
Upper Meteetsee he knew that he was on
the range of big grizzly. He bush
whacked the whole valley, and spent
many days before he found chance to
shoot; then Wahb got a singing flesh.
wound in the shoulder. He growled
horribly, but it had seemed to take the
fight out OF him; he scrambled up the
valley and over the lower hills till he
reached a quiet haunt, where he lay
down.
His knowledge Of healing was wholly
instructive. He licked the wound and all
around it, and sought to be quiet. The
licking removed the dirt, and by massage
reduced the inflammation, and it past-
cred the hair down as a sort OF dressing
over the wound to keep out the air, dirt,
and microbes, There could be no better
treatment.
But the Indian was on his trail. Be-
fore long the smell warned Wahb that a
foe was coming, so he quietly climbed
farther up the mountain to another rest
ing place. But again he seused the
Indians approach and made off Several
times this happened, and at length there
was second shot and another CALLING
wound. Wahb was furious now. There
was nothing that really frightened him
but that horrible odor of man, iron, and
guns, that he rememb ered from the dav
when he lost his mother; but now all
fear Of these left him. He heaved pain
fully up the mountain again, and along
under six-foot ledge then up and back
to the top of the bank, where he lay fiat
On came the Indian, armed with knife
and gun; deity, swiftly keeping on the
trail gloating joyfuly over each bloody
print that meant such anguish to the
hunted bear. Straight up the slide of
broken rock he came, where Wahb, iero-
cious now with pain, was waiting on the
ledge. On sneaked the logged hunter
his eye still scanned the bloody slots or
swept the woods ahead, but never was.
raised to glance above the ledge. And
Wahb, as he saw this shape OF Death re-
lentless on his track, and smeled the
fearful smell, poised his bulk at heavy
cost upon his quivering, mangled arm,
there held until the proper instant came,
then to his sound arms matchless native
force he added all the weight of desperate
hate as down he struck one fearful,
crushing blow. The Indian sank with
out sound, and then dropped out of
sight. Wahb rose, and sought again a
quiet nook where he might nurse his
wounds. Thus he learned that one must
fight for peace; for he never saw that
Indian again, and he had time to rest
and recover.

COIeridge's CIOudiness.

There is in Mr.. Ellis YarnolIs in
teresting volume of "reminiscences,
Wordsworth and the Coleridges," a
very amusing story of Samuel Taylor

times too profound even for poets to
follow.
Wordsworth and Samuel Rogers had
spent the evening with Coleridge, and
as the two poets walked away to-
gether Rogers remarked cautiously:

latter part of what Coleridge said"

Wordsworth hastily replied.

such minor detail as the cost of pa
per for the packages they have sent

compared the weight of paper with
the food supplied to the purchaser. In
one days purchases it is said that the
paper wrapping amounted to about 10
per cent of the total. In list of sup
plies costing about $1.40 he found that
the paper which was weighed with the
