EDITORIAL NOTES.

State Auditor Barber announces that
he is not to be a candidate for
reelection. Orange county can be
depended on to fill the vacancy. His
name2 Why Horace Bailey, of course.
Prot. Koch, the worlds leading
bacteriologist, has publicly announced
that he has demonstrated that bovine
tuberculosis and human tuberculosis
are quite dissimilar diseases and that
there is practically no dancer OF
infection from eating the meats or
products OF affected cattle This will
greatly strengthen the opponents Of
the present system of testing and
condemnation. There has always
seemed to be a lack of proof that
food conveyed the disease
to the human being. No such increase
of the disease has been noted as such
a theory would warrant. However, it
cannot be best that animal products
known to be diseased should be put
upon the market and sold as sound
and pure. While not actually
poisonous, or Demonstrating such
products are not wholesome, and their
dement's should be fully known to
BUYERS.

THE SANTIAGO CONTROVERSY.

The Spanish-American war fur
nished its full complement OF vexatious
squabbles, such as attend all wars,
even though it was fought TO a speedy
ana glorious finish by the armies and
navy of the United States. One Of
these was the so-called ''embalmed
beer scandal, covering the whole
subject of army subsistence, supplies
and hospital attendance. 1t was made
the matter Of military and Congress
sional investigations, which, in large
degree, put quietus to the acri-
monious discussion,
The navy provided as a controversy
the famous Sampson-Schley embroglio.
1t arose out Of the peculiar conditions
and events preceding and attending
the destruction of the spanish fleet off
Santiago dc Cuba. 1t has ragged
within and without naval circles ever
since the occurrences, dying down
only to be revived by some new
Indictment.
The latest outbreak was occasioned
by the appearance of a naval history
in which Admiral Schley is character
lied as a coward, disobedient of orders
and recreant to duty. Again and
again has it been urged that the
controversy was a proper subject for
official investigation, to determine
what grounds, if any, there were for
criticising Schley, or for giving him
credit, and TO settle just what was the
respective share of honor or blame of
the squadron and ship commanders
for the operations about Santiago.
Inasmuch as most Of the serious
charges concerned Schley. it was
considered proper for him to demand
an inquiry. This he persistently
refused to DO until driven to it by the
solicitation of his friends. following
the latest outbreak. They believe
him guiltless and want to see his critics
COMPOUNDED and an end put to the
attacks on him.
What is the trouble about? A
review of an exciting period Of the
spanish war is necessary to a proper
understanding. The Wanted spanish
fleet Of four fast CD armored cruiser,
and three dangerous torpedo boat
destroyers had sailed from the Cape
Verde islands with Cuba as its
supposed destination. The Oregon
was creeping up along the Brazilian
coast, seeking to join the Atlantic
fleet without encountering the
formidable spanish squadron. The
so-called Flying squadron under
Commodore Schley was held at
Hampton Roads, ready to iiy to the
defense Of any point along our
extended coast that might be struck by
the enemy's feet. The North Atlantic
squadron under sampson was
blockading Havana and other Cuban
ports, keeping a watchfnl eye ont for
the stealthy antagonist whose where
abouts was unknown.
Il was a ticklish time. At last, after

The report abroad that diphtheria

city is happily not borne out by the
records at City Clerk Schaffer's fiji e.
So far this month II cases have been
reported, making total of AZ since
July l. This is not at all alarming.
especially in view of the fact that the
disease has been OF a mild type and
only in very few cases fatal OF the
cases developed since July 1, II

prevalence seems 10 have original

HOW THE LEGS GROW.
The Shocks of Exercise Lengthen
Them and Keep Them Even.

The Shocks of Exercise Lengthen
Them and Keep Them Even
AS fact, says the author, our lower
limbs are not usually both of exactly
the same length, though they are so for
all practical purposes. The left is usG-
ally the longer though the gait is not
notably influenced by this fact. At
birth the lower limbs are shorter than
the upper, and their movements are
rather of the prehensile type. I'VE are
not born leggy like the foal or kanga-
roo, but we gradually achieve leggi-
ness" The bones increase in length, not
SO much by interstitial deposit as by
addition to their ends-that is, by pro-
gressive ossification of the layer of car
tIIage which intervenes between the
end of the shaft and the epiphysis. Os-
sification goes on till the component
parts of the bone are all united by bony
matter, and thus the stature or the in
dividual is determined.
If from Inflammation or injury an
epiphysis be damaged, one limb may be
shorter than the other, or inflamniatory
stimulation may even induce an in
creased length in the bone affected. The
skeletons of tortoises, not being sub
jected to sudden jars, have no epiphy-
ses at the ends of the long bones,
whereas in the leaping frog the eXtrem-
tiles of the humeruS and femur long re-
main as separate epiphyses. The con-
tinuous conclusions to which the ends
of the bones of the lower limbs are cX-
posed when n vigorous child is eXcit ID
by its own natural spirit TO run about
are doubtless of great value in assist
ing the growth in length of the lower
limbs, which soon lose their infantile
character and become adapted for run
ming and walking. BY exposing the
lower limbs to the same influences and
resistances during their entire growth
we manage to maintain them of the
same length, and gentle jars upon the
epiphyses at the joints may be consid-
cred favorable to growth.-New York

A BIG WEDDING FEE.
The Generous Uses to Which Henry
Ward BeecHer Put 1t.


In his ''Eccentril hi of Genius" Ma
jor Pond says that often while travel
ing Henry Ward Beecher improved his
time by having what he called "A gen.
eral housecleaning' of his pockets,
which would get loaded up with letters
and papers until they could hold no
more, when he would clear them out
and destroy such papers as were worth
less.
On one occasion Beecher happened
TO put his hand in the watch pocket
of his pantaloons and found there a
little envelope which he opened. When
lie saw it's contents, he called Major
Pond to sit beside him and remarked:
You remember the evening L married
C. L. Huntington. l was so much in
terested in the subject that L forgot
he handed me a little envelope as he
went out of the door. | put it in the
watch pocket of my pantaloonS and
never thought of it again until just
now, and here it is, four $1,000 bills.
Now" he said, don't tell any one
about ii. and we will have n good time
and make some happiness with this
money. We will just consider that we
found it."
And so in a day or two Mr.. Beecher
went with Major Pond to look at a
cargo of fine oriental rugs. many of
which he purchased and sent to differ
ent friends. and afterward he spent
what remained of the money for coin
silver lamps, unmounted gems and va
rious pieces of bric-a-brac, all of which
lie gave away until he had used up
the entire $4,000 lin making happiness
among those whom he loved"
After Mr.. Beecher's death the major
related to Mr.. Huntington the incident
of this discovery of the four $1,000
bills, and the railway magnate observ-
ed: 81 should never have given them
to him. 1t was all wrong. l made
mistake. Money never did him any
good"

Give Everybody a Chance.

Emerson's dictum that we should
treat every one as If he were alb he
ought to be is an excellent rule to prac-
tice in daily life. 1t is human nature
TO rise to the level that is expected of
it. 1t is not necessary to waste time
upon uncongenial people unless you are
bound to them by strong family ties,
but it is important that all with whom
you come in contact be studied, with
the desire on your part TO give credit
for all that is good in them and that
nothing in their outward circumstances
or appearance be allowed to prejudice
you against them.-Ada q. Sweet in
Woman's Home Companion.

forts of Dr.. j. Alvin Horne in equip

enable him to make examinations and
treat cases to much better advantage
than heretofore. While the doctor
was in Chicago recently he purchased
among a mum Der of late appliances 2

without this machine could not al

principal features OF the machine is
its use for the treatment of tn bercu-
static electricity chiefly manifests it
self as a regulator of functions. 1t
adjusts the normal action of the
heart, respiration, pulse, tempera-

1t increases metabolism so that a per-

power for good, and alone suffices to
correct many morbid states; as govt,

This form of treatment has cured q
great many incipient cases and ma

founding results are being obtained by
the use of the N-ray treatment.
The machine is used successfully
for the treatment of CANCER as well
