Diary Of NIaior Andre.

The dairy of Major Andre, after ly-
ing hidden for hundred years, has
been discovered in England. This
interesting find was made by Lord
Grey the other day, while he was go
ing over a lot of old family papers that
probably had not been disturbed since
the conclusion Of the American war Of
independence.
The diary is story of the campaign,
day by day, during the years 1777-S.
1t is simply but interestingly told from
the soldiers standpoint, and is accom-
panied by maps, apparently drawn by
Andre himself, and with a skill that
would make him the equal of any mill
tary photographer of to-day.
The diary ceases too early TO throw
new light upon the motives which
prompted the tragic ending of his ca
reer, but it gives interesting glimpses
of the personality of one of the his
toric figures Of the Revolution.

CAPT. ]. F. BARROWS.
Death of Sir John .Sfoiner.

Following closely upon the death of
Sir Arthur Sullivan, England has lost
another of its eminent musicians, Sir
John Stainer, professor of music in
Oxford university. Though not so
widely known as Sullivan. whose repu-
tation was largely due to his operet-
tas, Professor Stainer was in every
respect as well equipped a musician.
His larger works were only few can
tatas, of which THE Daughter of jail
rus" and "St. Mary Magdalene" are
the most important, but he greatly en-
riched English psalmody as well as
secular music with his hymns, an
thems and songs. AS teacher and mu-
csical scholar he stood at the head of
his profession in England, and besides
this had national fame as an organist
His various treatises upon harmony,
composition and the science of music
are among the best of their class, and

which he published Jointly with w. A.
Barrett. is the standard authority of
its kind in English. He received the
highest honors for his scholarship, and
will long be remembered as one of the
most proficient of contemporary scien-

pie.
In an article on the stings of wasps
a British medical journal cites the fol-
lowing two cases which have come
under his notice: A strong, healthy
girl of tweutyaseven. was stung on the
neck by a wasp and tainted. On re-
gaining consciousness she complained
Of a general feeling Of numbness and
partial blindness and vomited; she suf-
fered severe abdominal pain. She re-
covered in the course of few hours.
Two months later she was stung again,
this time on the hand. Her face be-
came flushed, she again complained Of
numbness and blindness, suddenly be-
came very pale, tainted and died
twenty-five minutes after she was
stung.
Another case was that of girl of
twenty-five years who was stung by
wasp behind the angle of the jaw.
The sting was at once extracted and
ammonia applied. In a few minutes
she complained of faintness and would
have fallen IL she had not been sup
ported. Her face assumed an express
sion of great anxiety and few min
utes later she was tossing on the bed,
complaining of horrible feeling Of
choking and Of agonizing pain in the
chest and abdomen. Brandy gave no
relief. There was nausea, but no vom-
iting. She rapidly became insensible
and died fifteen minutes after receiv-
ing the sting. The most probable ex-
PLANTATION of such cases seems to lie in
what is known as idiosyncrasy-that
Is, abnormal sensitiveness in particu-
lar individuals to certain toxic agents.
1t is well known that drugs vary much
In action on different people. What is
safe dose for one is dangerously
large for another. The inability of
some people to eat strawberries or
shellfish Is another instance of the
same phenomena. The active agent of
bee stings is generally believed to be
formic acid. 1t, therefore, seems very
desirable that we should have more
accurate information regarding the
action Of this drug on different species
Of the lower animals and through them
on man himself.

Cow Worship in Africa.

Two short marches on February 5th
and 9Th brought us to long pool of
still water. Here we found another
branch of the Magois, who called
themselves Katua. To my surprise
discovered these people to be COW wor-
shippers and to indulge in certain rites
which were supposed to be peculiar to
the Hindu religion. The origin of this
cow worship is presumably the same
with the Katun as with the Hindu,
traceable to the great dependence
placed upon the animal for sustenance.
The Katua eat the COW, but all their
people turn out when the beast is
killed and go through much ceremony.

STRETCHING 1T TOO FAR.
Privilege Does Not Permit Lawyer to

ASoOo A~ot u Lawyer u
Aid His Clients Escape.
Judge Thomas of the United States
court has correct idea of legal ethics
and he enforces his views with re-
freshing directness and decision in his
declaration that the relation of attor-
ney and client does not excuse an at
torney from Withholding evidence
bearing upon an intention or arrange
ment on the part OF the client to per-
form some illegal act in the future or
the actual doing of such an act. A
man under indictment had been ad-
mitted to bail and then fled. The
grand jury desired to learn who helped
him in his flight. The lawyer who
represented him said he was employed
to do so by third person, and the
grand jury desired to reach this third
person and find out where the accused
man was and who was privy to his
escape. The lawyer declined to give
this information on the ground that
his relation with client was privi-
legged. Judge Thomas refused to rec
ognize this as within the proper limits
OF professional confidence and ordered
him to answer the questions.-New

Stole from Uncle Sam.

Charges lately having been made at
the Office of the commissary general
that large quantities of valuable
stores shipped from San Francisco for
Manila have been disappearing for
several months, Secretary Root cabled
orders to General Macarthur to make
a thorough investigation for the pur-
pose Of ascertaining if there was not
a conspiracy to defraud the govern
ment. The arrest of Captain Barrows.
quartermaster of the department of
Southern Luzon, and the rest of his
accomplices was the direct result Of
these orders.
1t is not stated how extensive have
been the governments losses, but it
is believed that they will amount to
several hundred thousand dollars in
the aggregate. The name of the con-
tractor who has been placed under ar
rest is being withheld for reasons best
known to the secretary of war. He is
believed to be the dominating figure
OF the conspiracy, and when the facts
are all known the secretary and ad-
1utant general are convinced that 1t
will be disclosed that he is the man
who has made it easy for Barrows and
his commissary sergeants to dispose
OF government flour and other rations
and collect cash from the persons to
whom they were delivered.
The information that has reached
Washington thus far proves that the
commissary system in the East is con-
Quoted in loose manner The fact
that the losses have been going on for
months is causing Secretary Root and
the president great deal of annoy

demand that drastic measures be TAX

cerned. but to put an end to future
raids on army stores.
1t is feared that when the facts are
all known it will be found that the
raiding has not been confined to Ma
nila, but extends throughout the entire
department of the Philippines and that
the losses will amount to upward of
100000. What the war department

Thomas A. Scott Used tos Handle
Them without Cloves


s.When that wonderful railroad gen.
ius. the late Thomas A. Scott, was
building up the Pennsylvania system,
the work he did was superhuman, the
results he accomplished marvellous"
said an old railroad man. Scott was
essentially a MN of action. For ex-
ample. at one time there occurred on
the line freight wreck that.piled up
scores OF cars in a confused heap in
cutting, thus completely barring the
main tine
''The local authorities were beside
themselves, for they could not figure
out how the wreck could be cleared
away and the line reopened in less than
two weeks. AT this juncture Scott ar
rived on the scene and after a survey
of the wreck sent for a great quantity
Of coal oil, with which he had the pile
thoroughly drenched. 1t was then
touched off, and the god of fire soon
removed all trace of IL, and traffic was
resumed on the line in "a hours.
"a bridge fell, and it was feared a
long delay must ensue, but Scott put
more than 1000 men to work on that
one structure and thus eliminated the
question of delay. Those were the
days when such things counted and
were not only possible, but necessary.
Today railroading is reduced TO such a
fine point that the need for them no
longer exists. The roads are too safe
guarded for that.
"The last instance / remember Of
suchDrailroad work as that was at the
Johnstown flood in 1889, l think it was.
Frank Thomson, by great work and
the use of side lines, was one of the
first to arrive upon the scene. Once
there, he took fuh control. the division
superintendents from all over the line
were summoned, and n particular task
was given to each one to do instantly.
They one and all responded as best
they could to the spur, and the line
was reopened with incredible swift
ness. There were one or two failures,
however, and those men, while they
were kept on as superintendents of un-
important mountain divisions, were
never again promoted. New York

q man who has fondness for investi-

81 have thought of that for long
time-ever since that form of express
sion came into common use among
gamblers. Watch the first sport you
hear talking in that style and notice
the pleasure he seems to take in roll
ing his method Of expression. The
tense he uses evidently carries him
back, and he enjoys again in the pres
ent the pleasures Of the act when he
speaks Of it. Even If lie says he lose
it gives him qualification, according TO
the philosophy of Charles Fox, who is
authority for the statement that the
greatest pleasure in the world, next to
winning money is to lose it.
