Poisoning From White Lead.

From Public Opinion.
For some time in the past bitter strug
gle has been in progress in many European
countries between the employers and the
employees in the painting trade. The cause
of this contention is the use of white lead,
which, the men say, jeopardizes their lives
and health, and which the employers claim
Is harmless From time to time the mat
ter has been taken up by various labor or
CARNATIONS, but there seems to have been
made little or no progress in the right d.
rection. Recently, at the request of the
National Federation Of Painters of Frence,
NJ Edouard Sattler of the Vie lllustree of
Paris Investigated the matter, and 1t seems
to have been proved beyond question that
the painters have the right their side
M Sattler illustrates his article with
many photographs of men who have been
permanently disabled by the use Of white
lead in paints, one of the photographs even
showing us the body Of a painter who died
from lead poisoning, while NJ. Sattler was
making his investigation. The conclusion
to be drawn from the facts presented is
that white lead is poison which may en-
ter the body In various ways, the chief
channel, however, being the digestive tract.
When workman, for example, whose
hands are covered with white lead smokes
a cigarette or eats his food with his hands
In this condition he introduces into mis-
body a certain quantity of lead. But there
are other channels of almost equal i'm
portance such as the respiratory organs,
and experiments have shown that when
an animal lives In an atmosphere filled
: with lead dust there are soon produced
LESSONS of the lungs. In addition to pene-
tration through lungs. stomach, digestive
tube and mouth, the lead may also enter
the body through the skin When the skin
is dry ii does not seem to have been estab-
lished that the lead enters the organism
but when the skin is moist, torn or
scratched, the lead finds an easy ingress.
The results of the lead poisoning are
paralysis and atrophy of the nervous sys-
TEN, various cerebral disorders, albuminu-
ria of the kidneys with all of it's conse-
ouences, and so forth. By far the most
serious results however, are in the domain
of heredity.

every respect except that of being a born
fighter, violent and logged. For many
months the men had opposed each other in
debate of the bitterest description, and the
adherents of both dreaded the day when
they should come to an open rupture The
day came In the early part of March, 1898
The matter about which Macola and Caval-
lotti quarreled was an absolutely technical
one, from which the personal element was
quite absent, but heated language was used
on both sides, and 1t was practically certain
that serious consequences would follow.
The friends Of both men, however, did all

and it generally supposed that they
had been successful, when all Rome was
startled by hearing that there was to be a
duel between the two deputies.
The combat was precipitated by Caval-
lotti. who. though he was then f1fty-six.
overfat and extremely short-sighted, was
determined to fight. The radical leader al
ready had fought thirty-flve duels and had
come off practically unscathed, and regard
ed himself as invincible.

is reported to have said II don't want the

Count MacOla, on the other hand, had no
wish to meet his rival, although he had no
special reason to fear the issue, for he was
not only CdFaIOtUS equal as swords
man. but had the advantage of him in
years. being only thrty-seven. Macola also
had many successful duels to his credit. He
did all In his power to avoid the encounter,
but it was forced upon him notwlthstand-
ing. To refuse absolutely to meet his rival
meant the accusation of cowardice. made
by faction which sticks at few aspersions
Fight or be branded was the alternative,
and Macola chose the former.

but making supreme effort. 1t was futile
however, and after saying in q smothered
voice, II cannot; feel Ill! Macola almost
sank to the floor. A few moments later
assisted by his friends, the count left the
chamber, while those who remained heard
suppressed sobs from the ladies' gallery as
the Countess Macola hurried to join and
comfort her husband. That moment had
been the death-kneu of a despairing wom-
ans hopes.
Next day, in dignified letter to the
president of the chamber Deputy Macola
resigned his seat. on the plea of Ill health
AMI the fact that he is about to undergo an
extremely dangerous operation The resig-
nation was not accepted, which is the one
blue spot in sky almost universally gray
The nature of Macolas affilction is known.
He is suffering from disease of the nerves
which affects the whole body and renders
the right arm almost absolutely useless
The doctors fear that his hand will have to
be amputated, and say even that may not
be sufficient to check the malady. His OPP
ponents. however, are merciless still They
say: 1T is just! With that hand he muir
dered Cavallotti. The Countess CeIlere's
curse is having its effeet!''
On the evening of the day of Macola's
last appearance in the chamber an anony-
nous article appeared in the Avanu the
socialist organ, attacking him ferociously.
When the article was shown to Macola he
exclaimed: THE writer is afraid to ac-
knowledge his own vitriol. but when / know
who he is. l will kill him like mad dog in

to have been somewhat more than platonic.
Why the garden of her villa should have
been selected as the scene of the CaVallotti-
Macoli duel has never been satisfactorily
explained, but so II was, and the countess
watched the combat from a window of the
house
At about II O'Clock in the morning the
combatants arrived on the ground and at
that moment the difference in their char
acters was clearly marked. Macola was
steady and cool, wishing a dsagreeable In
cideut well over. Cavallotti, excited, 1t is
said by drink was burning to show himself
still the invincible swordsman- Each was
accompanied by friends and physician.
After the usual preliminaries the word was
given. Two assaults came to an end with
both men uninjured. But in the third, Ma
cola on guard, was furiously attacked by
the radical leader, who aiming for his OPP
ponents breast, was absolutely spltted on
the conservatives sword, which entered
Cavallotti's mouth. although Macola had
not moved his weapon.
The fatal mIschance evidently was due to
the observation-disclosures of the injured man
and his mad fury Cavallotu tottered and
fell without a hand being stretched forth
TO support him. The seconds and doctors
were aroused from their trance of terror,
however. by blood-curdling screams from
the house and the cry of Assassin in
woman's voice. The countess, deserving her
window, had flown to the scene, and, before
any one had gathered his wits, was sitting
on the ground with Cavallottfs head in
her lap.

NEW COLLECTION FOR
NATIONAL MUSEUM


One of the largest contributions that has
been made to the National Museum here
for many years has just been received from
the Louisiana purchase exposition. The
donation consists of collections of various
interesting articles of native manufacture
and use from Siam, CeyIon, Japan, France.
the Philippines and Argentine. which were
on exhibition at the St Louis worlds fair.
and which were donated to the museum by
the several governments
The various collections have been IN
packed in the lower lecture hall of the
museum, where with the Empress of Japan
in large oil painting presiding over the
proceedings, several members of the mu-
scum staff, including DR.. Walter Hough
t. W. Sweeney, Charles Luscomb, r. L.
Allen and E. II. HALEY, are now engaged
in arranging and cataloguing the articles
and bringing order out of chaos. The col
lections in their present state of disorder
occupy practically all the available space
In the lecture hall, and when they are ar
ranged for exhibition in the museum they
will fill a room much larger than the hall.
1t will probably be four or five weeks be-
fore the collections are installed for public
view.

the streets!" So there may be another act
to the drama, after all.
The recent sensational incident in the
chamber has called forth many reminis-
cences of Felice Cavallotti. He was one of
those popular figures which seem to live
and flourish only in troublous times. He
one of Garibaldis men. Perhaps his
most famous exploit, however, was chal-
longing and fighting a whole regiment,
whom he had attacked in his vrulent paper,
the little pink Gazette. One after another
the officers faced him, and he polished them
off until he was so covered with blood and
wounds that the doctors positively forbade
him to lift his sword again. No one was
killed, but the regiment is said to have
presented a remarkable appearance ON pa
rade, with it's patched and bandaged off,
GERS, and gained the derisive nickname of
the fighting regiment" However, in the
list of Cavallottis many duels these went
down only one.
The most bitter campaign the radical
leader ever carried against Signor
Crispi, who, in his eyes, was not only a rem
egade republican, but, what was worse.
reactionst. 1t was war to the knife be-
tween the two, with some restraint on the
part of Crispi when he premier, but
when he fell from power friends and foes
alike expected an explosion One day
Crispi rose to speak in the chamber, but
ton, led and voiced by Cavallotu Crispi
paused, but, looking Cavallotu straight in
the eye, said: Take care what you say and
do; l have something here which may go
off - and Herewith drew out his revolver.
The blood of all present ran cold. Not only
was Crispi capable of doing what he threat
ened, but his opponent was quite as capable
of returning his fire Fortunately nothing
came of 1t, as Cavallotti had no arms with
him.
AS for Cavalottis friend, the Countess
Cellere, her love adventures have been
many and varied, the most notorious being
with a son of Crispi when the latter was
premier The young man was in the habit
of going unannounced to her house at all
sorts of times. One evening he took leave
of her, but is supposed not to have left the
house as when the countess returned to
her bed room from her bath room her dia-
monds of very considerable value, had
disappeared She was not q lady to suffer
in silence, reputation or no reputauon-she
must have been twenty years older than
the Young man-premier's son or not, she
was determined to have her jewels back, so
made no secret of her suspicious. How 1t
really ended no one knows; the young fell
low escaped to the Argentine Republic and
was never heard of more, but 1t Is limited
that the countess purse for some time after
was fat If her jewel box was lean, and it
was certainly odd how suddenly her lamen-
tationS ceased.

In addition TO the intrinsic interest con-
tanned in the collection from Siam that coll
lection is also notable because of the fact
that the authorities have declared it will
be the last exhibit that government will
ever make. The people of Siam. so it is
said, are becoming tired of seeing their
manufactured products of primitive type
compared on exhibition with the modern in
ventions of England. Germany France anI
America.
Among other articles in the Siamese col

mond. through oleander poisoning. l. was mentioned at the time that there was no local record of a human being suffering from this cause although the poison of the plant is supposed to be equally as deadly to the human animal. as to horses. Since then attention has been called to two cases of oleander poisoning, one man and the other g. little girl. Though neither was fatal it is assumed t was because of the minute amount of poison absorbed and the facts are given merely for their educational value and as a warning to people to be very careful in this coun- try where the oleander is grown SO extensively as an ornamental plant. The first case was that of a man who a few years ago was standing on the court house plaza when he thoughUess- ly picked an o!eander leaf and stuck 1t in his mouth. The person to whom he was talking told him to spit 1t out al once as the plant was poisonous. He did so and about fifteen minutes after his tongue began to swell up and in a short time was so badly inflamed he could hardly swallow. A physician kept ice in the patients mouth and worked with him sometime before he

Dr. Richmond says he never knew a horse affected with oleander poison to lay down and die on the contrary they stand up until the heart wears out and then keel over dead. The normal pulse of horse is in the neishborhood of 3S or 40 but when poisoned with oleander the pulse runs up to from 13O to 150.

UNIONS
FIGHTING OPEN SHOPS.

Philadelphia, Jan. 5.-At the recent
meeting of Typographical" Union No. 2
it was unanimously resolved to con-
tinue the fight against the Philadelphia
Inquirer and the "open" shop There
has been so much of practical benefit
derived from this battle to encourage
not only the printers but the trades
which have Joined with them, that in
justice to the cause Of trades unionism
the fight must be maintained The
results from the work Of the past six
months have proven that a steady de-
eline has taken place in the Inquirer's
circulation and its advertising columns
The strongest argument for constant
action in this fight is the fact that
every gap in the ranks of the Interna-
tional Typographical Union must be
closed in expectation of g. contest on
the eight hour day.
A victory in this city will strengthen
not only Philadelphia, but the Interna-
tional Union, together with adjacent
cities-New York. Boston, Pittsburg,
Baltimore, Trenton, Washington Will
mington, Albany and many smaller,
towns. A victory in Philadelphia will
remove the menace the city has been
in the past and remove from the
Typothetae the hope Of using it as
a source of supply of mont union men in:
case of trouble. Philadelphia is show
ing itself to be composed Of the right
sort of material, and it deserves the

most commendable piece of legisla-
tion is the statute lately enacted in
Ohio, which in part provides as fol-
lows: I'm any action brought by an
employee, or his legal representative,
against his employer. to recover for
personal injuries, when it shall appear
that the injury was caused in whole
or in part by the negligent omission
of such employer to guard or protect
t1is machinery or appliances or the
lremises or place where said employee
WAS employed, in the. manner required
by any penal statute of the State or
United States in force at the date of
the passage of this act the fact that
such employee continued in said en-
ployment with knowledge of such
omission shall not operate as a. de-
fense." This statute has the effect Of
removing a source of possible litigation
by putting an end to the mooted ques-
tion whether statutory provisions re-
quiring employers to provide certain
DESIGNATED safeguards for the protec-
ton Of their employees do or do not
affect the common-law rule relating
to the assumption Of obvious risks by
continuing in the employment. and Of
securing to employees the protection
which these statutes were intended to
give them The statute should be
