THE HERALD.
Yellow Fever.
Concerning the yellow fever, a New
Orleans correspondent gives the fal
lowing as some of its chief character
istics: -About the fourth or fifth day the
eyes turn vellow. The skin, also, as
sumes a yellowness like that of a
bruise, or a bricrht iaundice vellow.
However, tho patient does not turn
ellow in more than one case in six.
As to the cause of the scourge, the old
atmospheric theory has gone by the
oard, and the best writers seem to
have settled down to the belief that
the poison is of animalcular origin
these aniinalculae generating and
spreading over surfaces like grasshop
pers or caterpillars, and being intro
duced into the human blood. If they
exist, the most powerful microscope
uis hitherto been unable to discover
them. One fact that seems to poirt
to their existence is that the same ex
tremes of heat and cold that kill other
nsects also kills yellow fever, whose
contagion cannot exist and becomes in
nocuous at 32 degrees and 212 degrees.
Yellow fever is always killed out af
ter a good freeze. Yellow fever never
spreads above GOO feet above the sea
evel. Acclimatization does not pre
vent, and no person has a second at
tack. The period of incubation is
four to nine days, though persons have
been known to carry it in their systems
twenty-three days and then take it.
Without treatment, seventy five out of
every hundred will die. With treat
ment and good nursing, howeverabout
one in three is the average mortality.
a the great epidemic of 18G7, in some
Texas towns, one-half died who took
the fever. As to the cure, no remedy
has yet been found, and all treatment
so far, even by the best physicians, is
as empirical as the cause of yellow
fever are unknown beyond conjec
ture." Was it Poison.
From pirties at Weeping Water we
have r cived the particulars of the
death of J. W. Dvvinnell, formerly of
Weeping Water vicinity, at Columbus
Junction, Iowa, taken from the Louisa
county Safeguard, published at that
place, part of which we copy:
"About 11 o'clock a. m., Saturday,
July 27th, a covered wagon drawn by
rather a shabby looking team of horses,
stopped in front of Salmon & Go's
drug store. A woman rjrot out. went
into the drug store and made inquiry
for some spiiits stating that her father
who was in the wagon was ill. Dr.
Harrow happened to be in the store at
the time. After a short conversation
with the woman he stepped out to the
wagon. Lying on the bottom of the
bed in an unconcious condition was a
tall, raw-bom d man. apparently fifty-
live or sixty years of age. The Doc
tor comprehended at the first glance
that the man was very ill, and ordered
the woman to take him to the Nation
al Hotel kept by Mrs Garrett, where
the sick man was taken out and ten
derly cared for. He never spoke a
word, and about 3 o'clock p. m.,brfath
e I his last. Sunday afternoon he was
buried in the cemetery at Columbus
City.
"This is the plain history of the death
of a strange man among strangers.
There are facts connected with his
death and his career before reaching
this space would amply demonstrate
the truth of the saying that "Truth is
stranger than fiction." The woman
who came with him is a woman about
25 years of age, weighs about 150
pounds, has dark hair, clear gray eyes
and a very red face. She said her
name was Mary Atwood, that her
father's name was Leonard Atwood,
that their home was in Kansas, that
he father owned farms in DeWitt Co.,
Illinois, and that they were on their
way to that place to settle up some
business matter. The day following
the old man's death, quite a number of
our citizens had conversations with
her, the substance of which differed
from each other, very materially.
This discrepancy between her state
ments was the cause of much street
talk and many suspicians.
"Matters by this time assumed quite
an interesting and mysterious face and
belief that the old man had been foul
ly dealt with seemed to be strong in
the minds of nearly every one. Tues
day evening by direction of the Coron
er, the body was taken up and the
stomach and liver subjected to an an
alysis, with a view to the discovery of
poison. Pending this examination, the
writer of this repaired to iled Oak. to
learn any facts that might throw light
upon the mysterious affair. Arriving
there Wednesday evening, we immedi
ately found Marshal Uurnett and May
or Stratton. The result of our visit,
brielly told, was as follows: We found
that the old man who is so far known
as Leonard Atwood, came to Ited Oak
about the 13th or 20th of June, in com
pany with two young men. His com
pany left in a few days."
While there he became acquainted
with a courtesan of the town called
Pauline Harrington or "French Moll,'
with whom he took up his abode.
"For two or three weeks, the woman.
Harrington and a sneak thief named
" Hi" Taylor succeeded in keeping the
old man drunk most of the t'me. It
was the intention of these people to
get posession of the old man's money
and papers of which he seemed to be
pretty flush. He was seen to have
about $709.00 in cash, besides notes
and deeds to valuable property. The
intention was to get away with the
old man at lied Oak, and the time was
set. One of their accomplices how
ever, became faint hearted and told
the Marshal of the job. Taking with
him tho deputy Sheriff, they repaired
to Mary At wood's (?) residence, where
they found the old man in a drunken
stupor. They stayed until he sobered
no when they left. The appearance
on the scene of these officers, doubtless
caused rauline and Bill Harrington to
change their programme, which they
did. A short time afUr, they left
Red Oak the old man. Pauline and
Wm. Harrington, and -Hi" Taylor.
This is tha substance of what we
learned in lied Oak. Those who know
the parties are firm in the belief that
the woman murdered the old man
with poison.
"Last Tuesday, the oldest son of the
deceased man arrived from Weeping
Water, Nebraska. From his story and
papers found with his father, the old
man's true name was J. M. Dwinnell.
It seems he had assumed the name of
Leonard Atwood, for the purpose of
making his escape from his home,
where his wife had commenced suit
for a divorce and Alimony. District
Attorney Sprague, who was in town
Tuesday, had the woman Harrington
arrested on a charge of perjury.
" Upon hearing all the evidence in
the case, Mayor Waters bound her
over to Court. Failing to give 1000
bail, she was deposited in the county
jail. There is no doubt but that she
will be sentenced to the penitentiary."
The Facts of the Case.
One reason why the greenback move
ment has so much strength can be
found in the application of personal
feelings to national problems. When
a man has conducted his affairs in such
a manner as to bring himself to ruin,
it is not unnatural for him to seek
some explanation of the disaster which
will avoid a confession of his own fol
ly or incapacity. If he can place the
lesponsibility upon some cause that
is beyond his individual control, such
as a financial policy enforced by the
Government, he salves his own vanity
and makes a bid for public sympthy.
EVERY SPECULATOR.
who has been plunging about wildly
and reckless amid the waves of infla
tion only to encounter a catastrophe
when the billows commenced to roll in
upon the solid shore of hard money,
finds a handy explanation of his mis
fortunes in tho policy of tho Govern
ment tending to eqalize currency val
ues with coin; and behind hi in are
thousands of humble men who feel
the pressure of hard times and are ea
ger to accept his theory concerning
the causes of their distress. The man
who shuts his eyes and refuses to see
the truth, and the person who has not
perception enough to comprehend it
when his eyes are wide open, supply
ample material for the demagogue to
cajole and delude; and the manner in
which greenback doctrines have been
taken up and preached shows that
nothing is too absurd for a changeable
politician to swear by, if he thinks he
has a considerable body of voters to
back him up.
But intelligent men stand outside of
the unthinking crowd and observe
CAUSES AND EFFECTS
for themselves, have no difficulty in
perceiving that it was not the need of
greater volume of currency that
dragged many of the present converts
to inflation doctrines down to bank
ruptcy. The ruin was caused by per
sistent and long continued violation of
the simplest and soundest rules of bus
mess ana me natural laws that regu
late supply and demat.d. Too much
credit and too little c;tsh is a formula
that expresses the fact of the matter
with perfect accuracy. Broadside.
How to make Times lood.
Curse the capitalists; frighten them
all you can. Do not let them go into
business. If thee show any disposition
to do so, call a meeting; get up a set
of rules and regulations for managing
the business so as to break them up as
soon as possible, and threaten those
who will not go in under the rules, un
til they gather up their monev and
leave the country, as they have already
begun to do. Nothing helps times so
much as to let men know that if they
get more by working hard than you do
by idleness that you will compel them
to divide. They will work all the
harder for such encouragement. Go
right ahead with your communistic
speeches; they are doing a great deal
of good. All that is necessarv is to
follow it up, and we will all soon be on
the ground floor all equal all poor, all
idle, all worthless. Frank. (Pa.) Press
The Cause of the Warm Wealher.
Professor Langley, of the Pitsburg
Observatory, attributes the intense
heat of this summer to the fact that
"the sun's face is at present free from
spots almost beyond past remem
brance. Next summer, he says, the
spots will begin to re-appear, and go on
increasing in number and expanding
in size until they reach their maxi
mum, in its,, wnen tney will again
begin to decline gradually, until they
almost or quite disappear in 1880
Herschel taught that the weather
is
hottest when the spots on the sun are
most numerous, but Professor L
ly holds an entirely opposite doctrine
Jfit be true that tne face or trie sun
this year is almost without spots, th
fact must be accepted as a strorg sup
port of the professor's theory.
W E have been informed that many
are under tho impression that Capt. F
W. Liedtke is not a candidate for
State Auditor. If this is the case, we
wish to correct that impression by
stating that Mr. I is a candidate for
the office of State Auditor, and that
the Republicans of York county will
endeavor to secure his nomination at
the State Convention. York Tribune
A witness in a divorce suit kept re
ferring to the wife as having a veiy re
taliating disposition. "She always re
taliated for every little thing," said the
witness. "Did you ever see her hus
band kiss her?" asked the wife's coun
sel. "Yes, a great many times."
"Well, what did she do on such occa
sions?" "She always retaliated, sir."
The wife's retaliating disposition
didn't hurt her at all with the Jurora.
Lime on Land.
Lime should uever be mixed with thf
barnyard manure in a heap, says tht
Canada Farmer. The effect ot lime on
the manure w ill bo to set free the
volatile ammonia, and thus waste one
of the most valuable constituents of
. . a
the manure. Whether lime ue quiCK
or slacked tlie action will be the same,
though the ammonia will be much
Booner set free by quick than by slacked
ime. Strictly speaking.lirne has avery
beneficial effect on most soils, bringing
previously inert plant food into a fit
state for the use of plants. It is a
powerful stimulant, and unless manure
be used with it the use of lime would
exhaust the soil sooner than it would
be exhausted were no manure at all ap
plied. Lime is most beneficial on
strong clay and rich low lands. Upon
wet, undrained soils lime has no effect.
ime should always be applied to the
surface. It has a tendency of itself to
siuk in the soil, and get beyond the reach
of young plants. It is well to draw it
out in a quick state, deposit it in heaps
and there let it be slacked by the action
of the air. As soon as it is finely pow
dered, spread in broadcast at the rate
of ten to twenty bushels to the acre,
and harrow it in with the seed. Much
of the good effects will be lost if the
ime is not in a finely powdered state
when applied.
Lawyers' Fees.
An Individual residing in a neigh
boring county, when under age, con
tracted a debt amounting to twenty
dollars, which he refused to pay. He
was sued, and employed an attorney to
defend the case.
"What is your defense?" demanded
the counsel.
Plead my minority," said the client.
'When I contracted the debt, I wasnt
of age. That is my only defense."
"Very well," replied the counsel.
They proceeded to the court, where
the plea was made, and succeeded. The
court decided in favor of the young
man, and the creditor had to pay all
costs.
But this is not the best of the joke.
A settlement had to be made between
the client and the counsel. This was
soon brought about by a dun from the
counsel.
'What do you charge for your ser
vices?"
'Twenty-five dollars, sir."
"What, twenty-five dollars!" ex
claimed the client; "why, I was sued
for only twenty dollars. I had better
lave paid that."
"So you had," replied the lawyer,
"and for not doing so, you shall now
pay me twenty-live dollars; so out
with it, sir, and learn to pay your hon
est debts iu future."

What JHaj Bo Done with Old Hags.
There is a church actually existing
near Bergen, says Household Words,
which can contain nearly one thousand
persons. It is circular within, octa
gonal without. The relievos outside,
... ...a .a f A 1
and the statues wilinn, liie rooi, me
ceiling, the Corinthian capitals, are all
of papier-mache, rendered waterproof
by saturation in vitriol, lime-water,
whey, and white of egg. We have not
yet reached this audacity in our use of
paptr; but it should hardly surprise us,
inasmuch as we employ the same ma
terial in private houses, in steamboats,
and in some public buildings, instead
of carved decorations an.l plaster cor
nices. When Frederick the Second of
Prussia set up a limited papier-mache
manufactory at Berlin, in 17C5, he little
thought that paper cathedrals might,
within a century, spring out of his
snuff-boxes by the slight-of-hand of
advancing art. At present, we old-
fashioned English, who haunt cathe
drals and build churches, like stone
better. But there is no saying what
we may come to. It i3 not very long
since it would have seemed as impossi
ble to cover eighteen acres of ground
with glass, as to erect a pagoda of soap-
bubbles: vet the thine is done. When
we think of a psalm sung by one thous
and voices pealing through an edifice
made of old rags, and the universal ele
ment bound down to carry our mes
sages with the speed of light, it would
be prvsump'.uous to say what can and
what cannot be achieved by science
and art under the training of steady
old Time.
Short Hints Concerning Sickness,
Don't whisper in the sick room.
When the" doctor comes to see you,
remember how many pairs of stairs he
lias to climb every day, and go down to
him if you are well enough
Remember that sick people are not
necessarily idiotic or imbecile, and that
it is not always wise to try to persuade
them that their sufferings are imagina
ry. Thev may even at limes know
best what they need.
Never deceive a dying person unless
by .l'e doctor's express order. It is not
only wrong to allow any soul to go into
eternity without preparation, but how
can you tell but that he has something
he ought to tell or do before he goes
away?
If you have a sick friend to whom
you wish to be of use, do not content
yourself with sending her flowers and
jelly, but lend her one of your pictures
to hang in place of hers, or a bronze to
replace the one at which she is so tired
of staring.
Dont have needless conversations
with the doctor outside of the sick
room. Nothing will excite or irritate
a nervous patient sooner. If you do
have such conversations, don't tell th e
patient that the doctor said "nothing."
lie won't believe you, and he will imag
ine the worst possible.
In lifting the sick, do not take them
by the 6houlder and drag them up on
the pillows, but get someone to help
ycu. Let one stand on one side of the
patient, the other opposite; then join
hands underneath the shoulders and
hips, and lift steadily and promptly to
gether. This method is eaty for thoe
who lift, and does not disturb the one
who is lifted
Do not imagine that your duty is over
when you have nursed your patient
through his illness, and he is about the
house, or perhaps going out again
Strength does not come back in a mo
ment, and the days when little things
worry and little efforts exhaust, when
the cares of business begin to press.
H 1 (2 VVlCaJ V. V. k.J a.K.wi
but the ebie brain and hand refuse to
think and execute, are the most trying
to the sick one, and then comes the
need of your tenderest care, your most
unobtrusive watchfulness.
The Cliier Sinners Iu Theory.
Wherever Mark went, says Edward
Eggleston in his serial "Itoxy," he was
successful and everybody praised him.
Mrs. Hanks, Roxy's well to do annt,
held forth to Jemima upon the admira
ble ability of the young man, and his
great goodness and self-sacrifice iu
"laying all his advantages of talent,
and wealth, and prospects at the foot of
the cross."
"I tell you what I think, Henriette,"
replied Jemima with her customary
freedom; "I think that's all fol-de-rol
and twaddle-de-dee." Here she set her
iron down with emphasis and raised
her reddened face from her work, wip
ing the perspiration away with her
apron. "I think its all nonsense for the
brethren and sisters to talk that way.
jest like as ef Mark had conferred an
awful favor on his Creater in Iendin'
Him his encouragement. Do you think
it's sech a great thing to be Col. Bo
uamy's son and a member of the Inje
anny Legislater, that God must feel
mightily obleeged to Mark Benamy fer
bein' so kind as to let him save him his
immortal soul? Now, I don't," and
here fhe began to shove her iron again.
You'll all spile Mark by setting him
up on a spinacle of the temple," she ad
ded, as she paused a moment to stretch
out a shirt-sleeve preparatory to iron
ing it.
"Jemima," said Mrs. Hanks, its wick
ed to talk that way. You are always
making fun of the gospel. I'm sure
Mark's very humble. He call3 himself
the chief of sinner3."
"I s'pose he does. That's nice to
set himself up alongside of Paul and
say: 'See, Paul and me was both great
sinners.' That makes you think he's
agoln' to be like Paul in preachin'. But
gpose . one of the brethren Brother
Dale, now, was to say: 'Brother Bon-
amy, you're the biggest sinner in town.
You're wussunold Gathnthat went to
the penitenshry, an' you're wuss'n Bob
Gramps that was hung.' D'you think
he'd say 'Amen, that's a fact?' But ef
bein' the chief of sinners means any
thing, that's what it means."
Jemima, I tell you, you're wicked.
It's right to kill the fatted calf for the
returned prodigal."
"Oh yes, I know," and Jemima wiped
her face again. "But I wouldn't kill
all tho calves on the place and then be
gin on the ye'rlin's so as to make him
think it was a nico thing to be a prodi
gal. I d be afraid the scamp would go
back and try it over again."
And here Jemima broke out with her
favorite verse:
'Oh bender me not, for I will serve tho Lord,
Aid praise Ilirn when I die.
The excesses of our youth are drafts
upon our old age, payable with interest,
about thirty years after date.
