Has This Learned Man Found it's
 Cause and Cure? L .'-:
 Professor Dunbar of Hamburg claims that he has been able to isolate the toxic substance, which in predisposed individuals is capable of producing hay fever. The result of his experiments are given in the July "Edinburg Medical Journal" By injecting the isolated toxin into animals, he has been er1a- bled to obtain from them a serum which antagonizes the poison: CD With rye pollen he touched the nostrils of six persons, three liable to hay-fever, and three immune. In the former marked nasal symptoms followed, while the lat- ter were perfectly unaffected. 60 The pollen was applied to the eyes of the same persons, and in those who suf- fered from hay-fever, lacrymation, oe- dena of the lips and even chemosis fol- lowed. The three persons who were not subject to the hay-fever escaped all symptoms. (3) He placed two persons --one hay-fever patient and one irr1- mune-in glass room, and made each blow into small vessel containing rye pollen. The hay-fever subject was at- tackled by all the characteristic symp- toms of the complaint in somewhat aggravated form. The other person suffered no discomfort. (4) He ap- piled pollen to the arms of a hay-fever patient and itching lasting for hours was produced. He did the same to an immune person and no effect resulted.
 Professor Dunbar made several inves- legations into the composition of pollen,

NO RACE, BUT some SAILING.

There wasn't wind enough yesterday to blow the big yachts over the course within the time limit. But in what wind there was Reliance did SO well that there doesn't seem to be much dan ger that the cup will have to move. Sir Thomas says he isn't discouraged, but if there is more wind tomorrow. when the next trial comes off. perhaps he will be. He has based his confidence in his boat on the fact that MT. Fife is the best British yacht designer; that Rat sey is the equal, if not the superior, of all other sailmakers: that the Dennys, than whom there are not better ship builders anywhere, assure him that the Shamrock represents the high-water mark in construction; that there is a fine esprit de corps among the Sham rocks sailors: that Captain Wringe is at least the equal of Captain Barr; that the challenger has been thoroughly tried out in her races with the old Shamrock, and that these races have proved her unquestioned superiority. Those who believe in the Reliance base their confidence on the fact that pretty good boats have been and can be made in this country.
 Whistle for more wind tomorrow and continue to root for Reliance, which seems likely not to belle it's significant name.

The wintry wind is icy cold And blows about in manner bold; The cruel pavement swiftly greetS Pedestrian on the slippery streets, For they have knowledge, one and all, Of pride that goes before a fall. Men pick their way, their progress siowi Gee whizz! If this were only so! The bath tubs filled with broken ice. We seek the plumber for advice. The gasman ehortles in his giee; His monthly bill is good to see. Soon will our feet be cold and wet; We leave the fire with fierce regret, h And sadly go to shovel snow. Gee whizz! If this were only so! Down where the snowballs whizz and buzi The festive youngsters wait for us. They'll paste us good; we'll have to run; But who'd forbid their harmless fun?

a New Orleans negro, told how he had started a mattress factory on a capital of ss0 nine years ago. and now does business of S25.0OO year. Some of the disclosures of success achieved under difficulties have rather startled as well as gratified southern men who did not realize what the negro was doing for himself in business all over the South. The tone of ali the speakers has been buoyantIy optimistic. The race prob Iem' doesn't seem to be of much ae- count in that convention. Its members have solved it so far as they are con- cerned.

The, meeting Of the National Negro Business League in Nashville. Tennes- see, shows plainly that the negro is get ting along, There are fifteen hundred delegates. The meetings are held in the Tennessee State House by unanimous vote Of Democratic legislature. The body was welcomed by the white mayor of the city in speech which pointed out that the people of Nashville dis criminate with acute perception be- tween the interruptions thug of what ever race andathe upright, law-abiding, honorable citizen who regards with due appreciation the manifold blessings in cident to a government established and conducted for the well being of all." Booker T. Washington is the chief fig ure of the convention, and this is the sensible, practical way in which he talked to the delegates: We shall suc- ceed in winning our way into the confi- dence and esteem of the American peo-
 
 pie just in proportion as we show our- selves valuable to the community in which we live in all the common indus tries. in commerce, in the welfare of the State and in the manifestation of the highest character. The community does not fear, as a rule. the vote of the man, no matter what his color, who is a large taxpayer. It is not the negro who owns successful business or who works at trade who is charged with l crime.
 The delegates tell their experiences, and some of the stories are decidedly interesting. For instance, z. T. Evans, Il

4 NEW CUR E.

We take pleasure in calling attention to the new cures as one after another they are discovered. There are many O. them. and though disease seems to continue to flourish probably some of the new cures are efficient in some cases. One of the distressing diseases is insomnia. Many cures for it have been announced but St has not been conauered. Now, however. there is new hope. as there always is when there is new cure. And in this case there is at least some foundation for the hope. It appears that a woman in New Jersey had long and painfully suf- fered from sleeplessness. Eating before going to bed, counting sheep jumping over wall, getting up and doing gym nastic exercises, etc., etc., all failed to make her sleep. But one good day she was seized with an irresistible impulse to pay a grocer bill which she, had owed for twenty-seven years. | The minute that bill was off her mind and her conscience she became calm. and she took 10 sleeping as she ought to. She is now delighted with herself and her good sleep.
 Much can be said in favor os this new cure. and we hope to see it given | a thorough trial. Even If it shouldn't
 entirely cure of insomnia all who pay
 old bills it will help them and will also
 help the sleep of those to whom the
 bills are paid.

The death penalty awarded a private
 in the French, Foreign Legion for throwing his cap in his captains face at Gran is an illustration of the merci- less severity exercised in that famous corps. Shooting at sight is permitted the officers, who have to deal with dan gerous characters from all quarters of Europe. Nowhere is there such a corps, according to the London Chronicle. Its ranks are recruited from outcasts of all social ranks. Disgraced officers of the Russian service, deserters from the German army, broken scions of the Austrian nobility, fraudulent debtors from Belgium, forgers from Spain, honicides from America, ruined gam blers from Italy, are found in plenty in
 the ranks. No excuse is taken for a fault, and the slightest symptom of in- subordination carries with it swift
 passage to another world. It is under stood that recruits are simply seeking refuge from the arm of the civil law. The Foreign Legion is the only volun- tarily enlisted corps in the French army. It has done excellent service against the Arabs and is always placed in the forefront of the fight. .a

James Cochran, student in the State university at Austin, Texas, went to Austin in June to make some money during his vacation. He rode Texas broncho into town. The animal was worth probably ten dollars. A week after he arrived heavy rains made the roads almost impossible and he traded the broncho to an oil operator for an acre of land situated far outside of what was then the proved oil field. A few days later gusher was struck within four hundred feet of his acre and it is understood that he has closed a deal for the sale of the acre for s3o.0o0 cash. &# ~@
