DEwEY's COUSIN LAsHEp.
Horsewhipped In boston After Saw
ing Lives of Two Women.
From the New York Press.

Boston, May 1-Dignihed, aristocratic
and wealthy, Justice Dewey. cousin of the
Admiral. judge advocate general OF the
stan of w. Murray Crane, Governor OF
Massachusetts. and justice of the Munic-
ipal Court of Boston. was horsewhippei
publicly by cab driver in the street to-
day.
1t was a result OF his attempted rescue
of two women from impending danger and
the gallant young bachelor justice, who Is
quite famous for his courtly attentions TO
the falr sex. got into most sensational
street brawl as reward for his herolsm
Thu climax of the story and the feature
Of it which surprised the justice fully as
much as the unexpected and singing
blows of the who was the discovery to-
night that one of the women was the wife
OF Ole Of hts dearest friends.
1t was at the noon recess that two JUS
tees walked out of the Court House bound
for Young's for their luncheon. They were
Justices Dewey and Sullivan. AS they
were crossing Pemberton Square they en-
countered heavily laden truck blocking
the passage to Scollay Square.
At that moment the horses of q stylish
coupe galloped round the corner at a rer-
ilous space, threatening to crash into the
great dray and dash 10 death Its two fair
occupants. whose pale faces could be seen
tHEouSn tue WlnuOWS OF the carriage.
Justice Dewey took In the situation at a
glance. Not a moment was wasted For
getful of his own danger he leaped for the
piunging horses. determined to save the
women II II were possible.
He was just in time. The horses reared
and plunged and stopped. But the dray
suddenly pulled out of the path at Just
this moment and the stupid coachman,
unable to appreciate the situation, not
having seen the truck in the way, turned
in violent anger upon the Judge, whose
prompt and herioc action had saved his
equipage and his charges.
Wheeling the horses the driver so ma
noeuvered the rens that Judge Dewey re-
-ceiXed- a vicious kick In the back from one
of the excited animals.
In amazement at the mans ingrattu1e
the justice turned and grasped the bride
to save himself from being rum down.
This so enraged the driver that he stood
Up In the box and swung aloft his long
whip. bringing the lash down with cutting
force on the shoulders Of the justice.
Again and again the cruel blows de-
seconded, each leaving Its mark on the
clothing of the justice. He managed to
protect his face and hands from the blows.
The end of the affair came when the
horses swerved. taking the maddened cab
by out of reach of the justice and thus ter
mipating the horsewhipping.

toner. 10 keep careful records of all SUBJ
eequeDt cases. All these sources of in
formation left no doubt that the disease
was typhoid-and the next step was to
account for its production and diffusion.
TIE decision was that the disease was
transported TO North Boston by the sick
stranger who died after twenty-nine days
in a tavern that was the daily resort for
the members of ell the seven families
save the one which had been interdicted
by the inn-keeper. Twenty-three days af-
ter the arrival Of the stranger, the vari-
Gus victims began to be attacked. Stearns
and his household did not see any of the
sick ones, and. as the general belief was
that the sickness was caused by water
poisoned by Stearns. no pains were taken
to avoid intercourse with the eick-and
while DR.. Flint at once accused contain
mated well as the principal culprit, he did
not deny that there were other modes of
acquiring the contagion. His article de-
scrlbing the outbreak proved to be epoch
making, and put multitude of medical
observers on the right scent. In all the
general treatises on typhoid fevers this
study of DR.. Flint's is the classic story
that first truly points the way to their
real cause.

active medical men saw the truth clearly.
that typhoid fever always comes from a
seed or germ that has been produced In
the body OF some previous case-end only
one other doctor in England agreed with
him-a venerable retired practitioner who
with philosophic insight, discerned the
bearing OF Budd's studies, and gave him
moral support While Budd was engaged
in his Investigations. an occurrence that
strengthened his belief was brought to
his attention. At ball In Wales, which
took place in q tavern O distant wing OF
which held a man desperately sick with
typhoid fever, the dancers RECALLED them
selves with lemonade made with water
that came from a we'll very near the wing.
Within ten days nearly every one OF the
dancers was down with typhoid. Dr.
Thorne traced the origin of Ger three

fitting Match.
Hinesville, Ca, May 4.-Yesterday wit
messed one of the largest public joint pa
rades between the Liberty Independent
Troop and the Liberty Guards that has
been held here in years. The day was
lovely and the troopers were in their best
form and showed off to splendid advant-
age. The Liberty Independent Troop has
already received new uniforms, and
though they are not from as good mate
rial as the ones they have had, are still
quite serviceable and neat.
In the forenoon the two commands We're
drilled by Major-elect Waite by request
of the tfeeP eeaHaanders--I the after
noon came the real tug of war; when
the troops were to contest for the joint
medal which is tilted for each year at
this time. The medal will be worn by
Capt A. Gordon Cassels of the Liberty
Independent Troop, as he made the high
est score made in his troop-5S, which is
within Two points of being perfect. Prizes
were awarded to Private II. C. Martin

cess; l have made 1t a rule, since
the time when I entered college, 10
make study of one class of diseases at
time and to perfect a treatment for that
class before l took up another; and be-
sides this l have limited my practice ex-
clusively to chronic diseases.
But there are certain diseases which can
not be successfully treated by them
selves alone the diseased condition OF one
organ or part of the body will surely in
time communicate itself to some other or
gan or portion OF the body. Hence, the
specialist who Is best able to treat dis
eases of chronic nature Is he who Is IA
miliar with the diseased conditions which
are liable to- become seated In all parts
of the body.
1t is not sufficient to alone treat the
manifestation of the disease; 1t is neces-
sary to go deeper and be able to cure the
underlying cause.
Chronic Diseases Specially.
Having confined my speciality to chronic
diseases, which act and react on each 9TH
err and having had the privilege Of seeing
and treating and curing all the different
forms and stages of these diseases, IL
am 10 be accredited with even common
natural ability, 1 ought to-day to be sue
cessful beyond those whose opportunities
have been so much less.
l doubt IL any other physician in the
special lines, aE l have. / have been
treating these diseases continuously for 20
years, day in and day out / make no
boast of this; I simply state a fact that
none can dispute.
Constantly Learning.
Another thing which 1 have done:
have tried to learn something new every
day about the diseases which treat and
about remedies which would best reach
and cure these diseases. am sorry to say
that most doctors make up their minds
when they graduate from a medical coll
lege that they know all that can be known
about medicine, and they go on In this
way until the end, with a longer record
of failures than of cures.
New and Exclusive Methods.
ment which learned in the colleges from
help to me in my practice since, but every
method of treatment which use to-day
for the different diseases which l treat
and every combination OF remedies, Is of
my own discovery. / bong ago threw old
methods aside; long ago discovered that
ever ycase must be specially studied and
specially treated.
This, briefly, has been the chief cause of
my success and is the reason why to-day
I can so confidently promise cures to my
patients.

built two little towns were started, not
over 700 yards apart, and each place con-
tended for the depot.
There is an old pond between the two
places, and several thousand car loads of
dirt have been hauled and emptied into it,
and the warehouse is now being built on
the site of the pond.
The people are not pleased as 1t will be
very inconvenient to get freight. The

PROBABLY AN OLD BUZZARD.

Have Been BeIled IN 1863.

Athens, Ga, May 4.-The notice of the
capture of "belled' buzzard at Fort
Gaines. Ga, few days since by a Mr.
McAllister brings out the fact that the
buzzard was in all probability "belled"
by three Athens men-Messrs. J. L. Jar
rell, II. C. Davis and G. X. Smith. These
three men, while soldiers near Tallahas-
see, Fla. In 1863, belled a buzzard with
just such a bronze bell and leather col
lar answering in every particular to those
on the buzzard caught at Fort Gaines.
These gentlemen are now in corresponds
ence with Mr.. McAlisfer, attempting to
determine whether his buzzard is che one
that they belled in 1868.
