Heavy Gold Exports.

LONDON, Aug. IA. lin the course of
its financial article this morning the
Daily Mail says; Strange to say the
pivot of the international money mar
ket is now New York. The export of
gold to Europe, which New Workers.
talk about so condescendingly, amount.
ed last week to fully $4,000, 900. As
much more is likely to be shipped this
week, and the New York reserves are
likely to be depleted to the extent of
$4,000, 900 by the end of August, It is
question If New York can safely
stand this heavy demand"

Friction Between Health omcers.

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Aug. 13.-There
is some friction between Drs. Sanders
and Porter, the State health officers of
Alabama and Florida, respectively.
DIR. Porter has complained that Ala.
bama quarantine officers went over into
Florida. Now the State of Florida has
taken off the quarantine at Tampa, and
yet DIR. Sanders will not take it off in
this State because he says DR.. Porter
has not notified him officially that there
is no yellow fever at Tampa. While
the doctors are standing on ethics the
railroads are complaining that great
injustice is being done them by con-
tinuing the quarantine.

SAVED BY GEN. WHEELER.
Mr.. Bryan's Boy Within an inch of Being
Dashed to Death.

Mr.. Bryan's Boy Within an inch of Being
Dashed to Death.
CHICAGO, Aug. 13.-General Joseph
Wheeler, commander of the department
of the lakes, today saved the life of
William Jennings Bryan, Dr., the 12-
year-old son of the Democratic candi-
date for the presidency. The lad Wis
tied General Wheeler, and the latter,
after his first greeting turned to work,
and allowed the youngster to amuse
himself as best he could. Young Bryan
found a loose chair caster and big
bundle of rubber bands. These he
tied into long string and then secur-
ing the caster to the bottom, went to a
window and began bouncing the piece
OF iron up and down on the sidewalk,
rs feet below. The general, engrossed
with his labors, paid no attention to
the boy, who gradually became so in
terested in his play that he leaned far
Their and farther out of the easement of
the window. General Wheeler hap
pened to glance up few moments later
and was Mortified to see the lad hang
ing with his whole body over the side
walk, and only the toes of his shoes
visible, clutching the angle of the win
dow. Rushing to the window, he pulled
the lad in by his legs and landed him
safely on the floor. Speaking of the
occurrence afterward, General Wheeler
acknowledged that young Bryan was
within an inch of being dashed to death
on the pavement below when he caught
sight OF him.

We an know when we are hungry,
Nut We do not know why we are hun
'y? The unscientihc person viii re-
piy that We are hungry because we
ecd food. and this is certainly true.
rofossor Appenheimer. of Heidel-
oerg, agrees with this. but he agrees
hat there is much more TO be said ON
ne subject
According to the professor, the sen.
alton Of hunger is felt By the human
cling whenever the food supply that
ourishes the stomach d. deficient in
uality. On the other hand. the long
rs for food disappears whenever the
tomach IS filed for az that time.
Trough tho process of digestion the
uecessary supply Of blood Ia furnished
or the nourishr.ent of the stomach.
This rule does 1T hold good in the
hse of many invalids. as. for example.
7hoso suffering from chloroais. since
-arious tests show that they do not
eel hunger even when there rs no
0od in their stomacha.
The reason for this, says the profess
aor, is because there is. as a rule. too
much blood in the vessels that serve
or purposes of nutrition Whenever
lhe stomach is more or less out of or
Oh er in consequence of q deficient blood
upply. a certain stimulus acts on the
nerves, which are thus excited until
they cause the well-known sensation
mown as hunger.
