The Discovery of Quinine. It is not generally known that to a
woman the European world is indebted
lor tbe greatest febrifuge extant. The Countess of Chinohon, a noble S Dan
ish lady, daughter of the Marquis of
Astortra, and wife of the Viceroy of
Peru, lay ill of. a fever. The Indians of Pern had long known of the febrifu
gal qualities of the bark, which they
called quinaquinn, bark of barks.
They communicated their knowledge to a Spaniard in high authority, who consented to use it, and was cured of a fever. This gentleman, Don Juan Lopez do Canizares, imparted the information of this oure to a physician who was in attendance ou the Countess of Chinohon, at the same time sending the lady a parcel of the valuable bark. Consenting to use it, her fever was allayed, and when she returned to Spam she carried some of the Peruvian bark with her,, and made its qualities known. Linnaeus named the genus which yielded it ohinohona, in honor of tbe lady. -. Iu consequence of her introducing it mto Europe it was called "Countess' bark.'' , " The Jesuits promoted greatly its in -troductdoii'into Europe, hence it was sometimes' called Jesuit's bark; and many attributed its introduction to them, when, in reality, they only dif-
fused i3,knowledge and eueouragecUts

A number o gentlemen were iu the

of ducks a mend had shot up on the lake, and wcro somewhat surprised to hear him tell of killing throe ducks with one discharge of ills gun. About this time a slip, pointed-nosed man, who had beeq. 'guietly. listening, remarked: . "That's nothing very extraordinary." "May be that's the wayyou always kill ducks," aargasJacAlly remarked the hunter. ( "Wal, that depends on how I load my gun," replied tlie slim man. "Then t.doA make.a difference how 'you load, does itf" I presume-yoU use abont a peck of six-ounce bullets?" remarked the hunter, who began to feel that the glory with which he had covered himself, had melted, and was beginning to run off. "Wal, now, don't you get rattled. I don't kuow as HI give the scheme away," retorted tho slim man. - "How many ducks did you 'ever kill in one shot?", asked an interested listener. "Wal, stranger, I've killed and strung over fifty of 'em," answered the slim' man. "Fifty ducks at one shot!" exclaimed half a dozen. "Yes, over fifty," replied the islm man, "an' I don't mind telling ye how twas done, if ye really want to know." "How on earth could you do such a thin'g? You must have been where tho ducks were thick?" ventured a meeklooking individual. m "Wal, if yell give me a chance I'll tell ye. I took a trip up to Calumet several years ago, and I never seed so many ducks in all my life. I took an old-inusket along and one cartridge." "One cartridge!" exclaimed half a dozen. . "You don't mean to say you only took one cartridge and uo other ammunition?" W. 1, 1 didn't take anything else br t an old army musket, one cartridge an j a big spool of wire thread. That's tire sum total of what I always take, Yc see, I-" "What was the wire for?" inquired the meek man. "Wait till I finish, hang it, an' yer-l know. Wal, when I got out on cletv water away from the rushes I saw about 1,000,000 ducks right ahead of me. I just took the end of the wire and fastened it to the bullet iu the cartridge and loaded my gun an' put tho spool on the bottom of the boat, where I thought it wouldn't become tangled up and then I waited for a goad chance. 1 j happened to blow my nose, wfiich, of course, made a noise, when every duel raised his head to see what was up. I j drew a bead ou the eye of the duck ! nearest to me and pulled the trigger before they had a chance to .get scared. .:
Jewhiz! how that spool did spin while the wire was unwinding.' The ducks
flew away, frightened by the noise of
the gun, but I had just 150 ducks, all
strung by their heads ou that wire. The bullet had gone through their heads, dragging the wire with it, and it took eyes every time excepting one; it took, the tail of that duck just as he
raised from the water. The bullet
would have caught more ducks only the spool got caught before the wire was all unwound and stopped it I believe

The slim man found himself talking

"Why, it was this way : ' I was conductor of the morning passenger express-, and One day, as we were coming down by the junction, we, struck a misplaced switch and ran into a freight train that was standing .-on-the siding. As .we were running about thirty-five miles an hour, of course it piled things up a good deal. Our engine was smashed all to pieces, the 'smoker' telescoped tha baggage car and the forward passenger coach ran up the heap and rolled over. I was standing ou the platform at the time the thing happened, aiid luckily was slung off about thirty feet beside the track. When I picked myself up everything was contusion, the air was filled with clouds oi
escaping steam, and about fifty passen
gers wore somownere m tnp wreck. Of course, it was what you might call
an emergency,' but there s no such word as that in the company's dictionary. I had my orders and knew what to do. The roof of the smoking-cai
lay near me, and I heard a man crvina
out from underneath it. After about ten minutes' work, I got the stuff all cleared away and reached him. He
was very weak and groaning. 'Qh.
heavens ! ' he said, ' this timber presses on me eo, I can't move. Both my legs aro broken below the knee.' 'Think you'll be here till the next train?' I asked. ' Oh, yes he moaned.- Then

The Murderer of Ada Atldnson Takes from Jail by a Hob and Hanged. The Prison Doors Broken Down, and the Tlctlm Mummarily Dispatched,

Jacob Nelling, the murderer of Ada Atkinson at Oxford, Ind., some weeks ago, was taken from tho jail at Fowler, Ind., on the morning; or Nov. 19; convoyed to Oxford by a masked mob and hanged, it will -be remembered that after Nelling confessed to the brutal murder of the innocent girl hp narrowly escaped execution -at tho hands of the infuriated populace, and was spirited away to Lotayctto and confined in the strong prison of that city, for bettor security against mob vengeance. It appears that the Tippecanoo county authorities grot tired of looking after his welfare, and, as the exoitement ovsr the tragedy had apparently died out. It was deemed safe to take him back to Fowler for confinement In the Benton county jail, wliioh was acoordingly done. Two days after the roturn of the

JUSTICE HARLAN'S OPINION.
Pronouncing tke Civil Bights Derision Narrow, Art! tidal and Unwarranted.
(Washington Telegram. Justice Harlan, of the United States Supreme Court, In his dissenting opinion in the civil rights cases says: "The opinion in these cases proceeds upon grounds entirely too narrow and artificial. Tbe substance. end spirit of the recent amendments to the constitution have been sacrificed by'subHo arid ingenious verbal criticism. The constitutional provisions adopted in the interest of Hbdrty and for tho purpose of eeoqring, through national legislation, if need bo, the rights inhering in a state of freedom and belonging to American citizenship have been to construed as to defeat the ends tho people desired to accomplish, which they attempted to accomplish, and which they supposed 'they had adcomplisbed by changes in their fundamental law. The court has departed from the familiar rule roduiring that in tho interpretation of constitutional provisions full effect be given to the Intent with which they were adopted. Tho powor conferred by the Tbir-' teenth amendment does not rest upon implication or inference, and the power 'to enforce it by appropriate legislation was expressly granted. Congress, therefore, may enact laws to protect tho colored people against deprivation on account ot their raco of any civil, rights enjoyed by other f roomon, and such legislation may be of a direct and primary character, operating upon States, their officers and agents, and upon those wielding power under the State. The National Logis laturo may, without transcending tho limits of the constitution, do for human liberty and the fundamental rights ef American citizenship what it did with tho sanction of the Supreme court for the protection of Slavery and tho rights of masters of fugitive slaves. In every material eehsa applicable to the practical enforcement of the Fourteenth amendment railroad corporations, keepers of inns, and managers of places of amusement are agents of the State, because amenable to public regulation and tho denial, by these instrumentalities of the State to a citUen, because of his

About an hour afterward about 150 masked men, in wagons and buggies and on horseback, rode quietly up to tho jail from the south and posted guards at all the avenues of approach. They then prooeedod to divide their forces, a portion going to tho entrance to tha Sheriff's residence adjoining tho jail, and a part to the east door of tho jail. After demanding the keys to the jail, they proceeded to batter tho outer door with sledges. Then with odd chisels, prepared especially for the purpose, they cut the locks from the doors, and in about an hour gained entrance to Nelling's cell. Tbe old man hod In tho meantime got. up and dressed himself ready to receive thorn. Thoy hurried him out to a wagon that stood in waiting-, the old man simply remarking that they ought not to bo so rough, that he was older than some of thum. Then they departed with their prisoner in the direction of the murder, -near which place ho was executed. Everything was dono iu a bustness-liko manner, bavin? very much tbe air of a funeral.

MB. COOK'S STBAJfOB DEATH. A rartridge First Warning Him of Hli Approacbins; .Dissolution. ILowlston (ale.) DispatchFurther investigation of tho strange death of Lafayette Cook, of Auburn, emphasizes
the remarkable features of the case. Core-'
ner Brooks made a careful examination, and found the medical facts to bo as first stated. He found tho body lying as took had -laid himself out, aud it was the most lifo-liko corpso ho had ever examined. Doath was shown to havo resulted from natural causes, and vat there was no disease. Of tho genuineness of the old mau's prophecy thcro,1s abundant proof. About tw months ago Cook's daughter-in-law died. Cook was ono of tho most sincere mourners. Ho accompanied her remains to the gravo and oxprcssed tho tundercst solidludo toward hiB grandchildren. It was Jnst after tho death of Mrs. eook that Cook mailo bis first statoment iu regard to bis coming 'ltHftnliiHnn. V
It was 10 o'clook in the morning when a
grandchild rnu into tho lipuso with the news I
that a purtridgo bad nown into tne snoo ana couldn't got out. Mr. Uhosloy says that Cook manifested great concern. The little girl says that her grandfatbor "turned pole and was afraid.'' At first he delayed going Into the shed. Tho partridno rullloil its feathers at th children and at Everett Cook, and tile latter went into the house after a guu. Then tho old gentleman vent out Into the shed. He did not want tho bird shot. Mr. Chcslny says that the momont that Cook appeared tho behavior of tho bird chamjod. It flew at Mr.' Cook and wheeled around in a circle about his feet. Thon- it perched on Ids shoulder, pecked' at his face, and alighted on , bis hands. At length It was giveu to one of tho children and placed In an appro tree. It flew directly back. Thi bird stayed half an hour, all tho time showing tho utmost affection toward Cook. Finally it flew away toward the burying ground whore Mrs. Cook was burled. Cook then returned to tho house and went into a franco, which lasted two hours. Whon ho recovered hp said that he should die. Ho said that tho first warning was the visit of the bird. He bad great faith Iu such omens. Ho frequently had what bo culled ii'auQo, and wa- a believer in Sp'ltuulleiu.
