The doctor thon introducod mo into bis laboratory, where, inserted in glass tubvs, tbo bacilli were Been at rest, and where tbo cultivation of tbo bacilli was in successful progress. "As you see," said tbo dootor, "thoy resemble in no way tbo cholera microbe, but liavo many points of resemblance with tho bacilli of pneumonia discovered by Dr. j riedlander.' I then carefully examined tho bacilli in tbo glass tuba stopped with cotton and half full oi gelatin. On top of the gelatin I noticed what with tho naked eye looked like a milky white pot, round in form. In the mio.o- scope I saw small animalonlie, elliptic form and sharply dehnod. The great majority were yellow in color, but in tne largest and oldeBt tne cas sock shaped heads were dark blue. They were lying parallel and very close to eaob other. DIPFEKEHT FROM TIIF. C110I.EBA MI CROBES. Then the dootor showed me a tube containing Asiatic obolora microbes, whioh looked like tine threads and dif fered in every way from the influenza bacilli. As Been turougli the micro scope, tho cholera microbe resembles an infinitesimal comma. "I hope,' said the doctor, "that tho Times will accentuate tho absolute difference in form and naluro between the two nni- malculiu, because it is still generally beleived that tbo influenza is a fo.o- runner of cholera', which belief I think we havo BCientilioal'y disposed of. Now, on tho otber hard, the influenza bacilli and tho pneumonia baoilli are undoubtedly of tbe same family and analogous. "When I was shown the bacilli of pneumonia, discovered and cult'vated by Dr. Friedlauder, they were less brilliant and less yellow in color and not nearly so olliplio in form and also much larger, with heads quite as oleri cal looking as those of the i illuenza bacillus. In the case of the inniicnza bacillus one does not seo the gaioous bubbles to bo seen in the gelatino In which the pneumonia baoilli is culti vated." 1'ItErARlHO FOB INOCULATION. Looking around at this point I no ticed various sized jars, resembling those in which last spring two of M, Pasteur's talented assistants endeavor ed to cultivate, attentuato and prepare for inoculation purposed the baoilli of diphtheria. "I see, doctor," I remark ed, "that yon are gcllins; at the prao tical sido of the discovery. When will you begin vacoination, or rather inoculation against influenza!'' "Well, I have no idea, but would not like to think that that happy pro. cess is postponed to the Greek Kal end". Had you not noticed our pro parations I would not havo spoken of oar attempts iu that direction at all, a? up to the present they havo not been very sitHfao'ory. Wo had bred the bacilli and altentuatcd satisf actor ily the virus, but our first case of in 00 illation killed the patient, a rabbit, on whom wo tried it rooeutly.

Adam Forepauch, proprietor of tho well known circus and monar'jrio known as Foropaugh's Actareiration, was born in Philadelphia Fob. 28, 1831 He bogan Hfo an a butcher boy in tho employ of ono John Hiuckle, at a sal ory of 84 a month and his board. At tho ago of lu ho ran away from home and wont to work for John Uutoher, a butcher in Oincinati, who is still liv ing in Crawfordaville, Ind. Young Adam remained in his omploy for a yoar and a half. Leaving Cinoinnali, ho entorod tbe employ of John Gray, a butohor and norso dealer. Jioturnlng to I'hiladol- pbia, he was in the butcher business up to 1848, when ho ombaaked in runing stage linos and continued thoroin up to 1854. While in the omnibus busi ness Mr. Forepaugh dealt in horses and cattle, and bought and sold in a singlo year as many as 10,000 horsos. In 1801 he sold John O'linen, who was runing a small wagon show, Bixty.two horses for S9,000, and took as part payment an interest in the show. At this timo Mr. Forepangh had no idea of permanently embarking in tho show busbies, but, visiting tho O'Brien snow in ntiBburg, ho purchased tho eamo. and, buying Jerry Mabie's me nagorio, combined tho two, whioh for med the nucleus of the great Forepaugh show. Tho Mabie purchase consisted of two clophants and eight animals, for whioh ho paid $12,000, and tho property was delivered to him nt Twel fth and Slato streets, flhioago, on tho vory day oi tho assassination of Abra ham Lincoln, Desiring a name to attract patronage Dan Rica was secured at a salary of $1,000 a week for thirty weeks, and at this figure he remained in Mr. Foro paugh's employ for three seasons. For eight years the earnings of the show wore invested in its enlargement. Mr. Forepaugh increased tho number of oagea on oxhibition nntil they number ed twenty, when the veteran managers declared that ho was on the road to ruin. Next tho number was increased to thirty, and at last to forty-four. Up to 1870 tho aggregation had moved by wagon but having now reached buoIi gigautio proportions ho had constructed his own trains of sleeping, ooach, flat, box and stock cars, as well as a epeoial oar for the transportation of his business agents and advertisers. Of lato years Mr. Forepaugh had increased his inenag. erie each Beason by direct importations trora tne wild beast dealera ot iiiirop.?.

It was his boasts that he "owob, controls and exhibits more wild ani mals, and individually possesses more show property than any other single person or hrm in tho world. It is a remarkable fact that during Mr. Foro paugns managerial oareer, he never suffered' a financial reverse, but during iiittuy years continued 10 auu 10 nis fortune. lie was a largo real estate holder m Philadelphia and Brooklyn, and in tho lormer, his native city, he owned near ly one hundred houses, making his real estate possessions foot up over a minion uoiiars.

With reference to tho neoessary legislat:on, members of the Legislatuio must not act looking to the number of votes which thoy expect to bo cast for their ro-eleotion.

Hunton, Esq., Proaldont-7?;ar Sir: I thank you for Bonding rao your address mado at tho convention of tho Custom Foreman Tailor's association mid I have read tho samo with interest. Tho question of tariff directly affects all tho puoplo of tho land in a substan tial way, and thev oug!it to bo interes ted in lis (lisoiis'ioii. I am afraid that n great many of our fo'low citizens aro too ant to regard this ns a political question, inlrionltt and oomplox, affect ing them in a rctnoto way, and ono whioh may well enough bo left for polltiolana' to wranlo over. This in- iuoes a neglect of tho subi jct on tho part of a great tumbor of our ticoplo and willingness to blindly follow tho inriy to which they Happen to belong n their action upon it. It is a good sign to bco practical men, such as bo long to your asooiation, dlsoussing tho question for thomsolvea. If this ia dono intelligently and with aincore in terest to scctiro tho truth, tariff refor mers, I think, havo no ncod to foar tho sesult of such disouasion. Very truly yours, GnovEit Cleveland. This ioltor was wntteb in a reply to the ono by Mr. Hunton, president of thu cutlers' association, asking for somo statomont on tho tariff question, as it affectod tho tailors. An exactly similar letter was sent to President Harrison, but as yet, no reply has boon receivod. After tho letter had beon road the con vention cxtondod ita thanks to Mr. Cleveland. Pineapple for Diphtheria' Recently a papor printed tho import ant announcement that tho juico of tho pmcapplo ia a euro for diphtheria, nud asserted further that tho fact ia noth ing new; tho Creoles of tho Bouth havo long kuown of tho value of pineapplo juioo in tho treatment of dread diseas es. Ono man Bays ho administered tho juico to his soven year old boy, who was in great distress tor breath, nna four hours thereafter tbo patient bogan to cough up tho diphtheric membralne. Another says ho used the 11110a in tho oaso of his six year old daughter, who was dangerously ill with diphtheria. Ha says ho induced tho little sufferer to tako tho juice through a medicine tube, and withinjtwo or throe hours sho began coughing up small bits of tho membrane As tho diphtheritic mombraino which grows in theair passages ia of a foun- gum umimuiur, puysiuiuus iiuvu uu .along recogoized tho fact that if somo acid could oa applied that if some acid could be applied that would disinte grate tho membrano without attaoking tho mucous aurfacos the disease could be readily controled. It wonld bo g.atifving. bat not -garorlsinSa. if tho simple juico of the pineapplo should become established as a speciho for the enro of diphtheria. It would simply bo confirmation of tho theory that naturo has euro for every ill. In tho applica tion 01 pineapple juico lor diphtheria, parents should, of course, consult tho family physioian. No progressive doctor will slight new discoveries in any hold medicine, and experiment with the allged cure should be supple mented to regular course of treatment prescribjd by tbo lessons of medical experience. Wo havo expeoted it evej smco tin mines were discovered in Dakota. Tin has always been on the free list on tho ground that there was none of il in this oountry. The American owners of tho Dakota tin mines have now formally filed Iheir claim for protection. Wo say the American owners advisedly for these mines nave been eold in England and while the ownership is nominally in American companies it is really in English capitalists. The object of tho duty will bo to raise tho pneo of block tin and wo havo no doubt that this object will bo attaiued, so that the im mediate result of the discovery of a now metal in this country will bo that it will cost ns more than il did when wo had to bring it from tho other sido of tho world. Wo are of course infor med, that tho Dakota tin miners get S2.50 a day while the miners in Corn wall get 75 cents, and we presume that miners ot the straits seltlemants work for nothing and board themselves. But we learned last summer from tho New York Tribune that copper minod in Montana by men who got 53.50 a day was carried all tho way to London and thero sold for a cent a pound les3 than the Spanish coppor mined by men who got 80 cents a day could be sold lor. Wo havo been asked why tho au thors of tho Constitution incorporated in it tho electoral collogo methods of choosing a President. Tho gentlemen who preparod tho Constitution had for tho most part no vory groat confidonoo in tho intelligence and character of the masses of tbo people, and, with somo exceptions thoy did not feel liko trust ing tho people directly with tho power of bclectiug tho president They evi dently had no idea that the popular will would make tho elootoral collogo devico a moro form, as it did very early in our history. Their idea was that a body of eminent man, selected tor the purpose, would inako a moro judicious and careful selection of Presi dent than Congress or a poptua' con vention would. It was mtendod that tho oleotoral collego should not meroly register the will of tho people, but should assemble uninstructed and make its own froo and indopondont cholco of President and Vico Presi dent. Another reason for providing an olectorlnl collego was that tho fathers of tho Republio knew nothing abont national conventions,' and of courso saw the impossibility of mass conventions of tho peoplo of whole States, and saw in tho electoral collogo a representative body small enough to .1 - vm . - . 1 nine, iu kjiubu Kiuuua, uuu uuuuera u ban six ("taxpayers of tho township and tli80Uf8 thobim t . ww uiu nnu is iccatou wi enevor UlQ oboco of ft -m t Mof.Ulrato 16ALa 0t t,,cra' 8 m11 deem Tho choice of a President by electors liko tbo choice of Senators bv Louis- it necessary ior tuo convenience or safety of publlo travel to do so.
