' , Anonymous. lneapple for Dyspepsia. Another possible triumph of medical science over disease is suggested by a pa per read, before the Detroit Medical asso ciation recently 4n',' "Alimentation : in Therapeutics, . in which ; was announced an important discovery by Signor 'Vin cente Marcano, of "Venezuela, in regard to the pineapple. . . According to Signor Marcano there is in the common pine apple a ferment or principle similar to pepsin, of such remarkable strength that the juice of a single pineapple will di gest ten pounds of beef. If this proves true a new and important agent in the treatment "of dyspepsia has been" discov ered. As nearly all other diseases are directly, influenced by; the degree .'in which food can. be -assimilated, and. as millions of people have imperfect diges tion, the possibilities of this discovery are almost limitless, if it proves to be as represented. Cleveland Leader. The Golden Rose. There , is a rumor in Paris that the pope has resolved to honor Mme.

Yours Sell-fish-ly, ' John Booth, 62 62 SECOND STREET A somewhat novel colonization scheme is in the hands of Gen. Herman Sturm. The concession provides that Mr. Sturm shall establish four colonies in different parts of the country, the government obliging itself to sell him for the pur pose 250,600 hectares of surveyed public land in the states of Durango, Coahuila, Chihuahua, Oaxaca and Michoacan. The first colony, consisting 6f 200 persons of either sex, must be established within three years from the date of the promul gation of the concession. The colonists are to be selected preferably from among the residents of Mexican descent in the American states of California and Colo rado, and the territories of New Mexico, and Arizona.. . , ... The colonists will engage .in stock raising (to which end the free importa tion of a limited number of head, of stock for -breeding . purposes will be al lowed), in the manufacture of barrels' and coopers' goods generally, of beer, spirits and perfumery. : But - the. most important feature of the scheme is the erection of a paper mill in the federal district and the agreement of the con-, cessionaire to sell the paper manufact-. ured there at a "m.-riwynrn price of $3.50 for common triple printing paper, $3.50 for superior printing paper suitable for books, and $10 for glazed paper. An other feature is the project, for putting up a vegetable, fruit and fish canning establishment, Mexican Financier. - : ' . ... r Minister Daceett and Kslakana.
