Died From a Cat's

SUFFERING OF A YOUNG MAN IN SOUTH CAKOLINA,.

Bite. HORRIBLE

| _ | J. R. Bolch, a young white man, twenty- ‘two years of age, overseer on R. H. Corn- |will’s plantation, in Fairfield County, | Carolina, died last Friday of hydrophobia, |caused by the bite of a cat. One day last fall, while passing along on the road, he saw a beautiful black cat by the roadside. Thinking it would be a nice present for his | young sister he both spoke to and approach- |ed the animal. It appeared to be perfectly ‘docile and permitted him to handle it with- ‘out offering any resistance. But immedi- | ately after being lifted from the ground it }became furious, and scratched and bit him jon the right hand. Bolch killed the cat jand went on his way thinking but little of ‘the matter, although he had a very sore jhand for a week. On Tharsday of last week he was suddenly taken ill, experienc- ing great difficulty in breathing. A phy:icion was summoned, but when he ar- rived Bolci was unable to swallow any- thing. When a glass of water was handed him he went into convulsions, and the physician’s ski!l failed to afford him any re- lief. During the intervals between the convulsions the unfortunate man was per- fectly rational, and often piteously begged his friends to kill him and end his suffer- ings. His paroxysms became so violent that it was necessary to keep him tied hand and foot. He lingered in great agony for a week, and on Friday morning last he

died.

> - Great Trouble in Mars. It is interesting to read, side by side with reports of the inundations in Mexico, of “the inundations in the planet Mars.” It is alleged on high scientific authority that the red planet Mars, at present in the con- stellation Virgo, is engaging the attention of astronomers, who give us a most strange piece of scientific news aboutit. They know well the character of one region, near the equator, ofthis planet, which they have named ‘ Hind’ or *‘Lilya.’ It is bounded on the west by an inland sea, on the South by another from which it takes its name, on the east and north by great channels, and to the north-east by a small cireular lake, called the Lake of Meeris. This magnificent region, the most favored part of the planet, wasin the month of April last completely inundated, and re- mains still under water. The fact admits. of no doubt. The phenomena of these in- undations are being observed and studied by the astronomers Perrotin at Nice, by Schiapparelli at Milan, by Terby at Lou- vain, and by Flammarion at Paris, who is the chief French astronomer, and has a world-wide celebrity, and the results of the observations of all of these are completely identical.” The press of France and Italy have been discussing the subject at great length. It is claimed with the utmdst con- fidence that the portion of Mars that 1s under water is ‘‘a large, fertile and thick- ly populated region,” and it is added that ‘*these dreadful inundations re not occurr- mg for the first time.”

William Glann, a wealthy New York con- tractor who lives in Jersey, suspected his wife of unfaithfulness. Last Thursday he went to Philadelphia, ostensibly on a two days journey, but he came back the same evening’ disguised in a false beard and carrying acrutch. One of Mrs. Glann’s female friends recognized him at the depot and telephoned Mrs. Glann about it. Glann sneaked up to his own house and hid behind a tree to watch who would go in or out. Mrs. Glann came out, and, much to Mr. Glann’s surprise, she walked directly to the tree where he was hidden. He thought she wouldn’t know him, but he was mistaken. ‘*You’re a pretty man, ain’t you?” she said, and then spruvg at him like a wild cat, and tore off the false beard and spectacles. Glann boxed her ears, and then ran away. Society is quite excited over the scandal.

The Montreal Gazette notes the sugges- tive fact that the next election will see a new generation of voters in Canada. Then, for the first time, the young men born un- der the flag of the umted Dominion will exercise the franchise. There will be a large body of them—over 71,000 male children are born annually—und as the twenty-one years of the Dominion’s life ex- tends the control of the electorate will pass more and more into their hands. Our con- temporary makes the inference that the party which shapes its policy to gain the confidence of these new voters will have a mighty advantage in the struggles for power that the future will see.

By his will he left nearly his entire estate, estimated at from $350,900 to $500,000 for charitable objects in Gloucester, including $100,000 for a free hospital, $75,000 and the homestead for a home for aged people, and $10,000 for a widows’ and orphans’ society.

Lincoln’s Last Laugh.

George Van Duzer,of Washington, D. C., has presented to the Grand Lodge Library a portion of the collar worn by Abraham Lincoln at the time of his assassination. Mr. Van Duzer was present at Ford’s Theatre on the fatal night, and relates the following incident —:

The army under General Lee having sur- rendered to Gen. Grant a few days pre- viously, Secretary Stanton, on the 13th of April, 1865, telegraphed to Gov. John A. Dix to stop the draft, as it was considered that the war was virtually over.

At Ford’s Theatre, Washington, on the evening of April 14, 1865, the play of **Our American Cousin” was being enacted. In the scene just before the fatal shot of the assassin, a garden settee was standing on the stage opposite the President's box. Mary Meredith (one of the characters of the play) followed by Lord Dundreary (with her shawl over his arm), came upon the stage, and the lady took a seat upon the settee. Glancing over first one shoulder and then the other, she exclaimed :

‘*My Lord, will you be so kind as to throw that shawl over my shoulders /? There appears to be such a draft here.”

Lord Dundreary immediately replied :

‘* You are mistaken, Miss Mary—there is ng draft. The draft is all over.”

The President instantly saw the point aud laughed very heartily, as did the en- tire audience, who rose and cheered. Ina few minutes more the assassin had done his work, and a nation was in tears.

mo = A Practical Queen.

The new volume of the reports of the Historical Manuscript Commission calend- ars the family papers of the Earl of Dart- mouth. Like most of its predecessors, it comprises many interesting historical anse- dotes. One relating to Queen Anne, found in a manuscript volume in the handwriting of the first Ear!, is highly characteristic of that sensible if somewhat prosaic sovereign. Lord Dartmouth says that a little before she died she told him that she never bought any jewels for her own uve in her life, looking upon them as ‘‘ of all vanities the greatest,” though she consilered them proper for presents, because they comprise a great value in asmall compass. The same anthority notes that when Governor Pitt brought to this country from India the famous Regent diamond, Harley, Earl of Oxford, brought this famous jewel to the Queen and told her that several gentlemen of the House of Commons thought it a pity it should go out of the kingdom, and had a mind to move the House to have it present- ed to Her Majesty. Few ladies, probably, could haye resisted so tempting an offer, but the homely Queen, according to this trustworthy authority, desired that her Minister would stop the motion. She added that she ‘‘ should be sorry to see the people’s money thrown away upon such a bauble for her,” and told the Earl of Dart- mouth that it was ‘‘a much greater pity” that Greenwich Hospital was not finished. About three years after the death of the Queen, Pitt’s famous diamond was purchas- ed by the Regent of France for the young King Lous XV, for the large sum of £135, - 000.—Daily News.

The German Doctor's Report.

Dr. Gerhardt, acting under the directions of the German doctors who attended the late Emperor Frederick, has drawn up a report, stating that early in 1887 the German physicians pronounced the disease from which he was suffering to be of a cancerous nature. They decided to open the larynx, and preparations were made to perform the operation on May 20th, when Dr. Mackenzie saw Frederick, and declared that the disease was not cancer, and oppos- ed an operation. Dr. Mackenzie removed a portion of the growth, which Prof. Virchow examined, but there was no proof that the piece was taken from the actually affected part.

Dr. Gerhardt examined Frederick's throat after the piece had been remoyed, and accused Dr. Mackenzie of removing a piece from the unaffected part of the throat instead of from the diseased part. Dr. Mackenzie replied that it was possible he had done so. The German doctors pro- tested against Dr. Mackenzie’s treat- ment throughout. Prof. Von Bergmann corroborates Dr. Gerhardt’s statement, and gives the reasons why he lost confidence in Dr. Mackenzie.
