The recent excitement caused by al leged disease originating In oysters has led to some experiments with a view to determine the possibility of Infection from this source, says an exchange. It Is found that the bacillus of ty phoid will live In brackish water for Ight days In the very coldest wenther, and a proportionately longer time when the weather Is mild. In the examina tion of the oyster, it was found that those tn an apparently healthy condl . tlon had bacteria of various sorts float ing about In the juice. When the sea water Is taken Into the shell many of the forms of bacteria were destroyed or rejected, aa some kinds were not found In the oysters at all. One bacteriologist has Inoculated a number of oysters with the typhoid bacilli. The disease germs lived for two weeks in the oysters, but It was not ascertained that they multiplied; and ao far as this goes, the result was not conclusive. Furtht. more, the oysters Were not restored to the water, but kept In a cool place. In order to make sat isfactory examinations It is imperative that all natural conditions should be trlctly complied with; the oysters ahould be brought In contact with In fected water and allowed to assimilate. It and any of Its contents in the natural way. Experiments based on unnatural conditions are no experiments at all, therefore, the accounts of this method Of procedure prove nothing. Krnnniuv In Vnrl. Professor Carpenter, a writer and authority on the economy of fuel In present engineering methods, states that a study of the tests of boilers which have been made In this line shows, def initely, that a larger percentage of the value of the coal can be utilized when using anthracite and that bituminous coal and even oil can only be burned With large wastes of heat. Many who have Intimately studied the subject are of the opinion that a large portion of the hydro-carbon gas contained in bi tuminous coal Is given off when the coal la first fired and is carried away uncon iumed with large volumes of fresh air before the furnace doors are closed. Whether or not there is absolute proof Of this being so, Professor Carpenter thinks there is little doubt that, to suc cessfully fire bituminous coals they should first be gradually heated in the presence of a small amount of air, which will drive off the gas, aud the gas liberated should then be passed over a body of incandescent coals in the presence of sufficient air to produce combustion. Mention is made of the scheme, favored by some, of drawing the gas downward through a body of Incandescent coal, but no automatic de Vice will replace an intelligent fireman, though it Is admitted that no slight difference exists in the quality of these various machines, and some of them are of practical help. New York Sun, No Mor Veg-etarlan Iteatanritnt. The vegetarian restaurant that was opened last winter has been closed up. on account of a lack of sufficient pat ronage to pay expenses. It made very few converts to vegetarianism, though for a time there were many promising recruits. The novelty of the thing usually wore oft In a few days, and th new disciple returned to his fleshly diet with an appetite whetted by his shorl abstinence. The regular customers ol the place were noticeable for their sal low complexions, and most ot them had the appearance of being poorly nour ished. They could hardly be expected to make converts to their mode of liv ing by posing as living examples of thf effect of a diet which excluded all forma of animal food. New York Sun. VIOLETS CUBE SNAKEBITE. Kttbanl took, laa Jereet Richard Cook, Die New Jerwy snake charmer, baa atu.lle.l the liahiU. pecu lUrltit and character!!

Many a dollar has he picked up by this means. I-ast summer was an unusually good season, and he raptured I so pilots and 73 or SO huge black snakes, one of which measured eleven feet. It looks more like a not constrictor from South America than a common Jersey black snake, and was as vicious and cunning as he was big. He would sometimes viciously encircle the body of the exhibitor with his colls till you could almost hear the bones crack. This season Mr. Cook is not devoting much time to pilots or black snakes, b'U has succeeded In capturing four large rattlers, from which he ex tracted several ounces of oil, which found a ready sale at $3.50 an ounce Ie says that there Is a growing sale for rattle snake oil. It Is said to be swift and sure cure for deafness, and as a balm or lubricator fur sore mus cles or stiffened joints, is far ahead of choloroform liniment or any other remedy known to materia medlca. In regard to the poison Injected by the bite of a rattlesnake Mr. Cook said It was far more deadly In Its effects than that of a pilot and required prompt attention. He has had a painful but not serious experience with each, as his scarred hands testify. When bit ten he never thinks of consulting I doctor or drinking whisky, but gath ers a handful of blue violet leaves and stems and, crushing them, makes poultice, which he applies not on the wound but on the swelling around it. Upon the bitten part be applies equal parts of salt and indigo. This appllca tlon la renewed every half hour. Three applications are generally sufficient to effect a cure. Mr. Cook says he has ob served that all snakes lie dormant until blue violets appear In the spring and that they all disappear after the leaves of white ash trees begin to fall In autumn, and so great Is their antipa thy to ash bark or leaves that they will recoil from them as from fire. OVERRUN BY RATS. An Army ot Vermin Takita 1'oMCMton of an Ialand. The Island of Tropic, twenty miles south of the Florida coast, has been in vaded by an army of savage rats and the inhabitants" have been forced to flee for their lives. Tropic is three miles long and two miles wide and the soil is very fertile. A dozen families have settled on the island and engaged In growing vegetables for market George Uutler, one of the settlers, has lust reached here, and tells a thrilling story of the Invasion and subjugation of Tropic by the rats. Up to a month ago, according to Mr. Butler, there were no rats on the Island. At that time the advance guard of the rodents arrived, and were quickly followed by others, until In two weeks there were fully 10,' 000 on the island. The rats came from the mainland, which was only two miles away, and Mr. Butlers affirms that they swam across. He says he has seen them com ing out of the water by hundreds. At first the rats contented themselves with attacking the vegetables, which were soon destroyed. Then they Invaded the homes of the settlers. The latter made war on the rats, killing hundreds of them. Mr. Butler says he has killed as many as 100 at one shot, and that others would rush forward and attack him. biting htm viciously on the legs. In spite of the slaughter the rats got Into the houses and attacked the women and children. Several of the latter were badly torn by the sharp fangs of the ro dents. One baby was so severely bitten about the face that Its life Is de spaired of. For three nights, Mr. Butler says, not a soul on the Island slept, as that would have meant death. At last the people, In terror and worn out, fled in their boats to the mainland, where they are now camped In a destitute condition. Mr. Butler says the rats pursued them to the water's edge, and the women and children were repeatedly bitten before the boats could be pushed off. Every vestige of vegetation had been de stroyed. The rats are described as gray In color and monstrous In size, being larger than squirrels. New York Rec ord. Actor That Are Thrifty. An actor ought always to have an an chor to windward. Look at Sol Smith Russell. If he hadn't bought up that Minneapolis or was it St. Paul? property when it was cheap, could he afford now to play annual engagements in New York? Echo answers very dis tinctly. And now here comes Lewis Morrison. He, too, likes to play New York. He hasn't any property In the twin cities, but he has a "manor" up the Hudson, and he has a big gas plant there, from which he not only lights his own house, but furnishes Illumination for all his neighbors at very low rates. "Shoemaker, stick to your last" was a very good maxim, and still Is, but there really Is nothing like an anchor to the windward. !NVITII.AtK W THe iuA Two letters at the Same Stroke Double Durability.

On behalf of the Loval Orange Lodge of the United Plates of Amerlca.rana with a view of correcting the false Impression that enemies are endeavoring to convey to the minds of men who are unacquainted with Orange principles, are these few statements made: The Loyal Orange Institution is a brother hood and sisterhood, bound by three ties- Justice, Truth and Klghteousnesi. It has no hidden alms It is Fraternal and Benevolentassisting and protecting members while living and their widows and orphans when they are re moved by death. It upholds the right of private Judgment-' the untrammelled freedom of opinion: be Here the public schools are an essential safeguard of the state, and should be kept free from ecclesiastical or sectarian control and that persons disloyal to the government who hold a mental allegiance to the pope of Home should be rigorously excluded from teaching therein. It believes primary allegiance Is due to the government which protects the lives, liberties and properties of its cltliens, and that ecclesiastical authority should not' under any circumstances, be permitted to meddle in the affairs of state, and that coer cion of aclttien In the exercise of his or her right of franchise, under the guise of relig ious orsplrltual authority should te im- lihed as a crime against the state. That It Is the duty of every cltlien to de fend the lawfully constituted authority and Institutions of our country against corrupt and inimical influences, as well as against armed assailants, to the end that our glorl ous freedom be protected and transmitted unimpaired to posterity. It encourages habits of frugality and In dustry among Its members, and is proud to boast that Orangemen seldom become a public charge or accept pauper bread. It believes In the restriction of lmmlirra tlon and the extension of time for the natur alisation of cltltens. and that the public ands shall be held for actual American citl sens who become settlers. The Loyal Oranire lustltutlon of the united htates of America has certain requirement for membership: That a man shall bean actual American cltlten. having compiled with the lawsof the unnea staves wnn regard to naturalisation. and without a mental reservation. That the applicant shall be a Protestant. and also that his parents and wife shall be rroiesiants. That he shall be thrift and successful in his business: honorable and truthful in his dealings with his fellowman, and shall be known as a inw-aMdlnir cltlien. That be win endeavor to give his children or any children under his charge at least a food common scnool education, being care ul to avoid all popish doctrines, and That he mi nil be In sound health at the time of making application. It makes no dlnerence where a man was born, so long as be meets the foregoln requirement. These are the Qualifications reaulred o every applicant to the order, and we do not think that any patriotic American order can oner a better arrav or nrincipies ana teach Inss.
