of the Uoitcd States court in South Car
olina—W. W. Riser, M. V. Tyler and

look on a serious phase, hut the shed
ding of blood was uverted.
FREAKS OF WEATHER.
A Heated Spell in Chicago and a Snow
Storm in New York.
Friday was tho warmest day Chi
cago has seen in the month of April for
twenty years. The mercury stood at 82
degrees and a hot wind blew from the
south at the rate of thirty miles an hour.
The heated spell lasted until 0 o’clock,
when it was broken by a heavy hailstorm,
which passed over the southern portion of
the city. The hail was accompanied by
a high wind, which laid a few trees
prostrate and materially aided the hail
stones in (-mashing several thousand dol
lars’ worth of window glass along Grove
avenue and upon many of the cross
streets.
SNOW IN NEW YORK.
Snow began falling ot 8:80 o'clock
Friday morning and continued two
hours. Advice? from the Catskills state
that eight inches of snow has fallen,
while at Troy and Syracuse snow has
fallen to the depth of three inches. Bos
ton also had three inches of snow.
A man in Wolfe County, Kentucky,
has been disfranchised for life for Billing

I remember reading Ih Jos pirns or somo-
WhufOUlSo ilyit king Solomon Wan tho Ill's t
great botanist, for ho studied tho properties
and virtu s of every plant from I ho hr tree to
tho hysopthat apringeth out of the wall and ho
knew a’) or tho herbs that w«ro good for man
fdP MtoU Uiitd. 1 Wish that ho had handed
down his wisdom so that wo poor suffering
mortals woul^ know what kind of hark or root*
or herbs or 16ave$ to use when wo cot puny and
uainUkvh May bo ho d d httttd it doWn in tho
hooks that arj loff, for the scriptures toll u«
that all tho ro-t of tho nets of Solomon nro
written in tho books of Nathan, th • Prophot,
and Al jab and id Jo, tho hmoi- Maybo Mm will
find lhUse books M.uni’ of thOso days, for thol'd
is a railroad to Jerusalem now and tho ltivi sti-
guting yankoe is digging away under the ruins
of tho temple* They IluVo recently found tho
•tails Where ho kept Uis duo chariot horses,
1,400 of them, and which were driven by 700
handsome young men, who had gold dust
sprinkled ill thoii* hft'r oYel'y itloi'ning attd it
sparkled in tho sunbo.ims and mad* them look
divine as thoy circled around on dress parade.
That’s what Josephus save-
But I am afraid tho botany Will ettmo ton
lato for itto and t will have to keep on experi
menting until something kills or onros me-
Tho trouble in, that if a sick m in gota well
ho has taken so many different modi-
cim s that ho doesn’t know what out’ed him.
I haoa mulo that lilio to havo died, and
l gave him everyth ng that tho neighbors
told mo from lye soap and molasrtos to koromno
oil and laHtlv Wo rubbed him With a rail ftb •
dominally and horizontally until tho hair all
came off ami ho got well, hut our n xt sick
mulo diod before wo got to tho rail and tho
mulo doctors are still in tho dark. t*vo boon
reading a good deal of lato in a standard book
on modioino and I found sovcncon remedies
for hemie.rania and twonty-sovon for pertUHBis.
One of theSo diSeKsos is licUnilgin-hcndaeho and
the other is whooping OuUgh, hut sometimes I
forgot which is tot her and take tho wrong modi-
e no. Tho hcadacho belongs to mo and t ho oou h
to tho little orphan, and the mantel piece an 1 tho
bureau is full of bottles and via's nnd capsules
and tumblers and spoons, and tho moJiciuoi
havo sttoh curious mimes on tho labels that I
forgo* which is mine and which is the child’s.
My docti r has given mo seven romodios and
chirgod mo for every experiment, hut my
neighbors havo given mo hventy-seven froo
gratis, and I think 1 am a liltlo b tier cousidtr-
ing. hut I oin't toll who's alioid, my neighbors
i r tho doctor. If it wasn’t for tlio intermis
sions I couldn't get along at all, hut almost cv-
irr day 1 have a lucid interval of a few hours
and that keops up my hopes. I havo ono now.
I have boon taking horse radish and peppermint
and turpentine, not through my mouth, but
through tho olfae'.ory openings just above, and
fxperienoed relief for a timo, lmt it fs a slow
hunincsian l wouldn't make a good poiffumo.
I have tried antipirino nnd several antis and tho
girls bathe my throbbing tomplos with cam
phor and I havo tiiod gentian for tho last threo
days and now am on half intiom of snlt
dissolved in a tumbler of water, which a
friend said was tho favorito remedy of Major
Campbell Wallueo, who is nr ar ninety years of
ago, and thoro was no tolling lmw long n man
would live if ho would uso it. A good female
friond sent word to string half a dozen nut-
mega on a black thread and tio them around
the throat. The word oamo to mo and I borod
liolor in thorn with an awl and si ringed
them nnd went to bad with thorn oil, but I
f ain I out tho next morning that tho nutm g
business was for tho whooping cough. Another
good neighbor sent woid that another woman
told h*r that if I would catch a roach and shut
it up in a little papar box my hoadaohe would
go off when tho roach gnawed out or died.
That remind« mo of old Undo Isam, whoso
remedy for rheumatism was to mash a lizard’s
tail and let tho rebtllo lay under tho doorsill
until it died. Ariel that reminds mo now how
Neighbor Freeman had two hound dogs that
wouldent stav at homoi So Jto curtail-d their
tails about throe inches and buried tin frag
ments in tho garden gate, and thoy n vor
roamed away any more. But tho like of all
that don't euro homicranian headache nor per-
tiissian whooping cough, nnd to my opinion
both will have to bo nursed until tho weather
settles down and tho cant wind shifts to the
south and west and stays there. They have
callod mo to Brunswick to lecture, and 1 am
going whore tho salt sna breeze will blow upon
mo gomly; nnd I’m going to take tho child and
hot- mother and maybe wo will all eoino back
rejuvenated and remunerated.
But I bolievo in modioino and in doctors.
Wo are bound to lmvo them. Everybody
can’t go to Brunswick nor to the Hot
Springs, but tho poorest p’ople crii boil down
bark and roots and shocp safron or something
that will amuse the patient until nature cures
him. J. believe that thoro is a remedy for al
most overv disease except old age, and tho doc
tors are finding them out. Whooping cough
ought to ho cured in twenty-four hours and it
will ho when tho genu theory of microbes and
bacteria is fully understood. Ho let tho experi
menting go on. Of course thoro will ho vic
tims, but thoro will be discovery, too. My wife
and I nursed a boy in Florida for threo long
months and tho doctors' hills were $500, and
tho druggist’s bill had eighty-seven different
prescriptions, nnd the boy got well. But
though tho doctors couldn't toll what cured
him they found out a good many things that
didn’t, and tint is making progres* for ilie m xt
cano. But after all I believe that go >d nursing
and homo com for! s and sympathy snvo more
sick people than medicine, and I wish that ev
erybody had as much of those as I have and
the child. What can doctors or medicine do
for the pojr in the slums of tho great cities,
whero there are no good (loan bods, nor pure
sir, nor happy voices, nor any of tho comfort $
of lift? Jt I didn’t liftvo these and the blessed
sunlight to shine through the window I think I
would w<lc»m* death as a friend. But having
theso and more I am still calm and serene. I’ro
got a few more things to take yet, and will
th* n be able to tell maybo what didn't euro my
headache. Bull feel that the lucid interval is
passing away und must stop for the present.

The Cat in Thibet.
The cat is treated by Thibetans with
the most marked attention and forbear
ance. Even when it spills milk, breaks
or destroys arty valuable object, or kills
some pet bird, it is never whipped or
beaten in. any way, but merely chidden
and driven away by tho voice; while
were a dog or a child to commit these
offences, thoy would be soundly
thrashed.
Buch vefy mild and considerate treat
ment might lead one to suppose that the
cat is esteemed holy. But such is nof
the ease. It is, indeed, regarded as u
useful animal, to the extent that it con
tributes to the preservation of sacred pic
tures, robes, books, sacrificial food, and
the like, by killing the rats and mice
which consume and destroy these. But
otherwise the cat is considered the most
sinful being on earth, on account of its
constant desire for taking life, even
when gorged with food, and its torture
of its victims. Its mild treatment is due
to the belief that whosoever causes tho
death of a cat, whether accidentally or
otherwise, will have the sins of the cat
transferred to his shoulders. And so
great is the burden of its sins that, even
were one sir (two pounds) of butter for
each hair on the (fat’s body offered in
feeding the temple lamps before
Buddha’s image, the crime would not
be expiated.—[Indian Antiquary.

Dyi
ntto and Gunpowder.
Dynamite is vastly more powerful than
gunpowder. With the latter the volume
of gas is 300 times as great us the grains
used. With dynamite the volume of gas
is 900 times, or threo times ns much.
With gunpowder the gas is set free
gradually , with dynamite instnncously.
Air presses with enormous weight on
every surface. When an explosion lakes
place nil the air must be pushed aside to
make room for the gas. With dynamite
it is less work to split the rook cu which
it is laid than to raise the column of air.
With gunpowder there is less gas, and
the gas being generated gradually, tho
lir is moved gradually, and this less
work than splitting the rock. If gun
powder Is used to split a rock extra pres
sure in the shape of tamping is necessary.
