THE CRAWFORDSVILLE WEEKLY REVIEW

A New York Physician ('Joes Mad from Influenza.

ALARMING DEATH-RATE IS GOTHAM.

Other American and Kurop^nn Cltlc* Alarmed at the Steady Spread of the Malady—A Milwaukee Sufferer Kill* Himself.

INSANE FliOM INFLUENZA.

New Yohk. Jan. 0.—Dr. l'aul Hoffman, of New York, assistant superintendent of schools, has been taken to a hospital a raving lu^iiac from the effects of influenza. Friday night he patrolled the corridors of tho flat in which he resides, firing off a revolver. Later on he went out into the street and was arrested by an officer while recklessly flourishing' the weapon.

New Yoiik. Jan. 6.—The record of deaths for the last woek, prepared by the sanitary bureau of the health board, exhibits a frightful increase of mortality from pneumonia, bronchitis, phthisis, and heart diseases, as well as from influenza. More than thirty-nine out of every 1.000 people in New Y'ork City perished this week, making a grand total of rcgistored deaths exceeding l.'-'OO, against. 763 in the preceding week. The average number for

tlie

week corresponding to

last week during a series of years is 790. The epidemic with its various complications has iu seven days made a clean sweep on its own account of about 370 people. Hut the deadly contributor to theso figures is insidious pneumonia. The death-rate from this malady increased last week more than 110 per cent, in New York. |H|

In Newark the cityn*'mail delivery is badly delayed because so many carriers are attacked by influenza. Extra carriers have been put on. Newburg, it is str.tcd. has 1.500 victims. Several post-oftieo employes have the influenza, and all the newspaper offices are shorthanded on account of the malady. Physicians say that nine-tenths of the cases on their lists are those of persons suffering with the prevailing disease.

Milwaukee. Jan. 6.—The influenza has taken a firm grip on Milwaukee. For at least three or four days men and women on every side and in every walk of life have been sneezing and coughing and showing all the premonitory signs of la grippe.

George Rumor, a driver for T. Kriz & Co., on Sunday effectually checked the premonitory symptoms of influenza. He •ent a pistol ball through his head and died half an hour later. He was 40 years of age and unmarried. His body is at the morgue. A dispatch from Madison says Governor Hoard and his entire family are afflicted with the grip. The Governor is kept- a prisoner in his room.

Chicago. Jan. 6.—Within the past two days Russian influenza, or la grippe, which is epidemic in Chicago, has developed into a far more pronouncod and dangerous type. Twenty persons are afflicted in one house alone on the West 6ide. Conservative estimates place the number of afflicted in the city at 40,000. The police aud fire departments are suffering irom the ravages of the malady fully 100 members of each are off duty through sickness. Thousands of schoolchildren are sick, and it is likely that »')t mure than two-thirds of tho full number will be in attendance when the schools reopen on Monday.

Prof. Sam Syinmes has returned from visit to Kansas. He was there in the interest of the B. M.f A. of this city trying to hook a few cold waves for this section.- Judging from the Hnow he brought with him his trip was not entirely unsuccessful.

influenza is

spreading very rapidly at Jefferson City, the State capital. Secretary of State Fanning and his wife are both very ill. The Governor has been ill for two days and several clerks attheeapitol are confined to their rooms. Doctors estimate that there are at least 100 cases of grip in this city. Tiiore have been no deaths thus far.

Makiiiai.i.towx. Ia., .Ian. 0.—Superintendent .Miles, of the State Industrial School at Kldora, reports that thero are *,wenty-iive well-delinod cases of la grippe in tho hospital of that institution.

Boston. .J

ti.—The influenza and

erratic character of the weather havo wrought,sad havoc the last week, as the extraordinary death rate reported by the Itpard of Health shows. The deaths for the week in Hoston numbor 348, nearly 100 greater than was ever recorded before for a similar period. The influenza has made its eflects felt in the increased number of fatal cases of pneumonia, bronchitis, consumption and heart disease. it having served to intensify each

these diseases. deports from all parts of New England—oven from the drier climate of the mountains, in Ver mont—show that tho epidemic has laid low thousands upon thousands of victims.

CoNroTtn,N. II., .J a n. 6.—Captain Rufus P. Stanieis, a prominent insurance and Grand Army man, died Saturday, aged 58. lie was attacked with la grippe Friday, which developed into typhoid pneumonia in the evening

arid

terminated fa

tally. Nearly every family ia Portsmouth, 'his State, has one or more cases of influenza. Over 200 hands in the Portsmouth shoe factory are laid up. La grippe has a strong hold upon the people of Exeter and the surrounding towns. Many are badly alllicted, including professors, clergymen and physicians and persons in all walks of life. The shoe factory and other manufacturing concerns hore are running very short-handed in consequencc of the epidemic.

HurKAi.o. N. Y.. Jan 0.—So far two people have, died in this city of influenza, which shows no signs of abatement. Twenty-nine members

Ualtimohk, Md., Jan. 0.—Two-thirds of the students of .Johns HopV ins University havo la grippe. Tho young men from the far South are the quickest and most seriously affected. Physioians say the epidemic is now at its height in Baltimore, and the total number of cases is said to exceed 50,000. In some up-town neighborhoods every family in

every block is affeoted. Several fatal cases of pneumonia and bronchitis, traceable to influenza, have occurred. The negroes are the least affected. Many physicians are victims.

I'AKKEKsnuitfi, AV. Va., Jan. (5.—The grip is spreading rapidly and several fatal cases are reported. Henry D. AVinkler. a well-known banker connected with the Kanawha Valley Hank, died from influenza. Two hundred cases are reported at Wheeling. At Charleston several newspaper men have it. At Fairmount John S. McKinney. aged SO, was seized with it and died in a tew hours. He was tho oldest Mason in the State. At Cadiz, on tho Ohio side, Charles Lynch, a young druggist, died with influenza after a day's illnos

London,-i.

Jan. 0.—The Russian influ

enza has secured a firm grip in London and is raging and spreading in the provinces. The newspapers are urging tho people to be calm and prudent, but in columns and joining editorials one reads of Lord Salisbury's sufferings from the fell disease, of Mrs. Bernard Heere's agonies, of stalwart policemen dropping on their rounds, of soldiers falling at their posts, and of the threatened disorganization of tho postal and telegraphic services. Tho hospitals aro beginning to feel tho pressure, and ordinary medical practitioners and druggists, although coining money, are complaining of overwork. The disease has appeared iii the barracks, jails and orphanages. In one public institution in the East end of London there are over 300 cases, and it has been established beyond a reasonable doubt that some ten or a dozen deaths in tho metropolitan district last week have been due directly or indirectly to influenza.

In France, Germany and Austria tho epidemic, after showing signs of subsiding, has revived with almost its original vigor. According to an imaginative newspaper writer half of Paris is sick and the other half is running to and from the doctors and druggists. Vienna is not in much bettercondition. Berlin has had a bad relapse, and Rome is worse than ever. Everywhere the disease maintains itsdemocratic impartiality, having attacked, besides the unnamed tens of thousands, the dowager Empress Augusta, of Germany, the Queen of Saxony, the Belgian Crown Prince, Archduke Field Marshal Albrecht (the Austrian Moltke), Prince Ferdinand of Bulgaria, and Archduke Frederick of Austria. Lord Salisbury has been confined to his bed-rooni for twelve days past. The Austrian Premier, Count Taaffe. is also down with the disease, aud there is not a Cabinet in Europe that has not furnished two or more victims. The highest number of deaths caused ny the epidemic is in Venice, where forty-three deaths aro reported in a single day. The last news from Milan is that thewRsease is rapidly spreading.

Beui.ix, Jan. 6.—Princess Bismarck and Princess llottenburg arc seriously ill with la grippe. Many deaths are reported. The Dowager Empress Augusta, who is suffering with influenza, had a bad night, being unable

sleep. Her

fever, however, has rather diminishe'l. The influenza is spreading in the provinces. Business is partially suspended, and in many places the school houses have been converted into hospitals. Ilerr l'atow. formerly Minister of Finance, has died from inflammation of the lungs.

Many of the friendly societies'"iff Vienna are suspending or curtailing payments in consequence of the heavy calls made upon them by victims of the influenza.

THE FEAR OF DEATH.

Last night I woke and found between us drawn— Between us, where no mortal fear may creep— The vision of Death dividing us In sleep And suddenly I thought, ere light shall dawn Some day, tho suhstancc. not the shadow, ot

Death

Shall cleavo us like a sword. The vision passed, But all its new born horror held me fast, And till day broke 1 listened for your breath. Some day to wake, and find that colored skies.

And pipings in the woods, and petals wet, Are things for aching memory to forget And that your liviug hands and mouth and eyoa Are part of nil the world's old histories 1—

Dear God: a little longer, all not yet! —Edmund Gossfe

Honesty and Error.

Honesty is not necessarilv incompatible with the existence of error. The one "resides in the intention," the other is the consequence of abnormal action of the judgment.

Genuine old fashioned "confluent" honesty taken in the natural way and "coming out nicely," is an infallible protection against the subsequent invasion of meanness or hypocrisy.

It is prophylactic per so. Some men appear to have been vaccinated with a kind of bastard honesty, a false theology, a selflsh morality, a far-oiF cousin of the original stock which is the prolific parent of a host of eruptive tricks and narrow minded cavils.

Furthermore, the scars of tiiis vaccination they proudly exhibit, and confidently rely on them as trustworthy certificates of a state of grace which exempts them from the influence of that contagion, whose presence breeds in the carnal man unmodified such horrible corps of corruption—from tho spiritual leprosies and concupiscences of our lower natures —or will, ut least, secure them against anything more thuti a mild attack of moral varioloid, leaving behind no marks of its ravages.

Possibly, that is better than nothing at all, and even the best that can bo iu thoso not uncommon systems where a wholo souled innoculation "won't work but wo submit that the danger is imminent of tho introduction of a scrofula of souls, which will resist all the patent sarsaparillas and healing waters in the universe.—St Louis Magazine.

How Law Led to Crime.

I wonder whether really crime or law came first. Law come very early in the history of things. If I remember aright, Adam and Eve were instructed not to eat fruit in the garden of Eden. So it would seem that law came first and led to crime, and it still seems to. There is a quiet little place in the Santa Cruz mountains where the simple inhabitants lived for years without law at all. The dread policeman's star did not shine out in the dark nights thero was no court house, no jail, no use for them. They were happy, innocent people. One day the office seekers found out this Arcadia and made a dead set for it Tho profit went to tho discoverer, I suppose, and he grabbed all of tho offices. He became deputy coroner and justice of the peace, and being the surgeon, the community was at his mercy. Ho had hardly taken office before there was a fight. Ho had first, in his capacity as surgeon, to attend to the wounded men secondly, he had to attend to the assaulter in his capacity ot' justice of the peace but to his chagrin tho wounded man did not die, and he couldn't sit on tho body as coroner. And ever since that little Arcadia lias become a riotous kind of place, and tho offices have quite an income.—San Francisco Chronicle.

W liat a Sea Cow Is Like.'"

On my urst trip up tho Manatee river I fully expected to see a manatee, or sea cow, raise her big horned head out of tho black water and bellow a warning at us. The name leads one to look for a great creature with tlie hairy skin of a cow, with horns aud a frisking tail, a terrible animal big euough to swallow tho boat and all its contents, wading along tho shallow shore perhaps aud nibbling at grass and bushes. But the sea cow of reality is a very different thing from tho sea cow of imagination. There was little danger of seeing one of any sort, for it is years since tho last ono was taken in tlio Manatee river, except one solitary specimen that was considered rare enough to bo taken out to tho semi-tropical exhibition at Jacksonville, saw it there, and now my idea of tho sea cow is clearer.

It does not roam about the country bellowing and swallowing whole sheep it has no hair and no horns, nor hoofs, nor augry tail. In appearance it is no moro like a cow than it is like a chicken, and its namo comes not from its shape, but from its habit of living on grass and green vegetables instead of eating fish or flesh.—Cor. Now York Times.

Today at 4 a. in. Bodo JIanjhi, of Baroinasia, went io see if any fish wero caught in his net. Whilo returning he met a female bear, with two cubs riding on her back. The bear row to fight him. Seeing that he it ail no chance escuping by running, he dropped bis fish, clutched his club with both hands, and braveiy went to meet tlie bear. They soon met, and tho Santhal gave tho bear Ave cuts with his club over her head aud paws. The bear then caught hold of his club, and bruto and man fought for life. Tho Sauthal shouted at tho bear, and tho bear growled furiously at the man. This was heard in tho village, and five men ran to help their friend. The Sauthal succeeded, by twisting his club this way and that way, to get it out of her paws, and gavo her a blow across her mouth at this the cub riding on her shoulders fell down. On the approach of the men tho female bear bolted with one cub. The Santhal picked up the other cub and ran home it is black, with a white back. It is remarkable that the Santhal escaped without a scratch.— East Indian Paper.

"Have you been to Ensniinger fc Seawright's Grocery lately. I tell you they are hustlers, they do business on business principles. They buy their goods very close and give their customers the benefit ot close buying, they handle the best line of goods I know of aud keep their stock arranged so as to attract attention, and treat all customers alike and I tell you they are coining right to the front. They pay a little more for produce than the other dealers and that makes them a nice country trade and their city trade can always get fresh produce when they want it, and that's a nice thing itself. They appreciate any person's trade and do all in (heir power to please them. If I was located in or near Crawfordsville I would certainly do my trading with those boys." The
