statement that pestilences among men
have generally been precedad by epi-
prevalence of pleuro-pneumonia as one
reason for apprehending a visitation of
cholera. Besides their advent as har-

intimate relations between those two
epidemics,
croscopist in Michigan has discovered
minute animalculae in the faces of
cholera patients, but this discovery be-
ing American, had to wait, like anaes-
thesia, the Ruhmkorft' coil, and so many
other American discoveries, till it could
be rediscovered or appropriated by some
European pretender. When an Eng-
lishman, Mr. Beale, found similar ani-
malculae in the blood of eattle sufter-
ing with pleuro-pnenmonia, the most
eminent masters of science proclaimed
the important discovery.
In the case of pleuro-pneumonia, Mr.
Crookes passed the breath of diseased
cattle through tufts of cotton wool, and
produced the disease in healthy cattle
by inoculating them with the matter
thus collected. In a recent lecture,
Dr. F.Crace Calvert declared hisagree-

that the breath of the diseased cattle
must have transferred to the cotton

Tur hostility of the “narrow-minded
blockheads” to the mysterious Ku
Klux Klan is due to the fact that they
fear it may retaliate upon them for the
erimes committed by their own secret
proseriptive organization—the “U. L.
A.” and its offkhoot, the “G.A.R”
They are very great blockheads, how-
ever, to suppose that they can succeed
in retaining a monopoly of the secret
political society business. Organiza-
tions like the shoddy league, which is
based upon political, social and busi-
ness proscription of political opponents,
must, sooner or later, beget counter or-
ganizations of equal virulence in feel-
ing and action. So far asis known,
the Klan is no such an organization,
but, denounced, misrepresented and as-
| self-defence, it may be driven into the
adoption of retaliatory measures,
