C21 ft 5hvtij3 Vs.tcrfcin. ASTORIA. OREGON: "WEDNESDAY ..r'EIJKUAKY 21, 1KW3 Dii'lic Discoveries. Impecunious mn are under ob ligation:, to Dr. Tjinner, J lie crle brted MurvaiimiiM. His famous expcr'nii-tix siiowi d "hat fitting- is a .mere popular folly and delusion. We eat, simply because it has be come a habit to do so; not from ativ absolute need for it. Dinner and dyspepsia, are, Jie proved, rel ics of barbarism, handed down to . us.from our ancestors, and the com ing race will altogether abolish this silly habit, which consumes so much time and money, simply to produce dyspepsia and other dis orders, troubles and diseases. Dr. Tanner's brilliant discovery opened a bright prospect for the under paid emplo"e, and at the same time carried terror into the bo soms of butcher.- and bakers, who .aw ruin staring them ir the face. For. a time, such was the effect of his experiments, the amount of food consumed daily in this coun try materially decreased. If this spurt of economy and starvation that he inaugurated lias Jaterly died away, if we have all gone back to the vile practice of eating, it is not Dr. Tanner's fault he who sacri 5ced his health and teeth for our happiness but our own weakness. Of late Dr. Tanner has been making further experiments into the subject of the human stomach and the food adapted to it. that promise to solve many vexed problems, and prove a blessing in deed to us. As the celebrated Darwin sacrificed his son in the interests of science, so was Tan ner prepared, with wonderful unselfishness, to surrender his wife. Darwin tells us in his "His tory of a Baby," the result of va rious experiments made by him upon his son. Desirous of dis covering the" birth of human intel tect, the soul, and all our feelings, he submitted the infantile Darwin to all maimer of tricks and out-, .rages stuck pins in him to find out when babies first experienced pain, jumped at him from behimd doors to see whether he was frightened, left him in the dark to terrify him, and punched him in order to discover whether he ap preciated his naughtiness. The poor little infant was punched and pulled and cuffed that hit, father might have material supplied for : book. The feelings of the un fortunate infant were not (ion suited. J n similar manner Mre. Tanner was starved, fed or gorged to test and prove certain theories of her husband. Dr. Tanner holds that our dispositions are the lesult- of our food; that the ferocious nature of the Hun was due to his diet of curds and bloed: that the German is phlegmatic from beer, and the English heavy from beef. To dis cever, therefore, the pioperties and effects of various foods on the disposition, he fed Airs. Tanner exclusively on certain diets. The result was a perfect success. He found that turnips produced ex treme amiability ; that carrots made people timid and sullen, and beans developed great irritability of temper. Like Dr. Guillotine, he was the victim of his own discov ery. He unfortunately gave his wife too largely of beans, and the result was that, she left her bed and board, and began a suit for di vorce. This unfortunate termina tion to a course manifestly in the interests has the effect of deterrinjr others from following in his foot steps, though the result would seem to sustain the theory he was anxious to substantiate. Most distressing accounts of suffering and hqjnelessness come from the Ohio vallev. Thousands of families have lost everything, and are destitute. A relief com mittee has been prganized, and its appeal is meeting -with prompt and generous 1 espouse. It is now feared that the levees on the lower Mississippi will give way, in which case appalling ruin will bo the inevitable result. In Fear and Trembllmr. A Washington dispatch says that developments for the. past few days have terrified the star routers. Amonr the latest ru- -.; ., . u n 1 n mors is one that ISnulvtud Dorsev ' . i T .. " ' are makinir preparations to get away from Washington. Warning J has been given the em'ernmeut counsel that another effort will be made to fix some of the jury, as; the defendants have come to the conclusion that this is their only hope of salvatiifi. Ex-detectivrs who have lost their positions since the tftar route trial besnu. A u hover about the city all day an hold intercourse with a number of suspicious characters therein. Tur ner is subjected to surveillance and every movement is strictly chronicled and faithfully reported by agents of the government to the proper authorities. It has also been ascertained that Brady has converted all his poj-- ertv into cash. The last trans- action netted him about $120,- 000, which he for use in caso has put aside an emergency I should arise. All movements of .i.- :-:! t r. ...:n k carefully looked after, and it is doubtful if they can get away un disturbed. The government coun sel say Reredell's evidence will convict all the other star route de fendants. Keredell says he tells the truth for the truth's sake and his family's sake. Counsel for the defendants say Reredell, who is a boneless individual, is insignificant physically, mentallj', and morally, and that he "squealed" under pres sure in order to save himself from a possible conviction. They think his testimony not so strong as lite government takes it to be. To night, however, all the defendants, except Reredell and Vail, met at Ingersoll's residence aud gravely discussed the situation. They would not say what their plans were. Dorsey was present. He says he will neither turn state's evidence nor run away, as re ported. Under date of the 19th it is tel egraphed from London, that th rains and floods which have been prevailing in all parts of the coun try have assumed the proportions j of a national calamity. Large tracts of land are totally sub merged. A considerable area of this bhould have been sown, but scarcely an acre has yet been setsded down. All England is lit erally a, morass of water, and wheat is rotting in soggy ground. What ever may happen now there can not be a good harvest this year, even if does not turn out one of the worst that England has iver known. To add to the misfortune of the agricultural population, a disease has broken out aruonjr cat tle and sheep. Congress has but ten days more to sit. The session is chiefly re markable for what has not been dene. Acting Vice-President Da vis gives notice of his intention to vacate the chair and give the Re publicans au opportunity to elect a president of the senate before final adjournment on the 4th prox. In reference to the shipment of lumber from this coast to Europe, San Francisco advices are to the effpet that the business will be an at.jrcd success. It is thought that the supply will create a de mand, which will in turn call for increased supply. 1 In the Dublin murder trial an j lnlormer named Carey, who has turned state's evidence is telling what he knows of the murder of Cavendish and Burke. His evi dence directly criminates several of the twenty-one prisoners ar raigned. Commander Gdrringe lias a private contract with W. H. Star buck for an iron ship for tho Ore gon trade. Henry Yillard dis claims any connection with the scheme. Mes- Langtey will exhibit her self on this coast in ApriJ, about the time the other fish begin to run, The convenient "tramp" theory is now advanced to account for the Newhall disaster at Milwau kee. It was "tramps'" that caused the railroad accident on the South- c-rn Pacific railroad. Tramps are ' . :,s convenient as the traditional NEW TO-lrAY Notice.
