An exchange says: "The worst

An exchange says: "The worst
Joke that was ever perpetrated on
scientific men took place recently
at Louisiana, Mo. A man was
sick with rheumatism, or some
thing, and a fellow went round to
the doctors and professors and
things, and told them that it was
the queerest case on record. He
said the man had no feeling. You
could stick pins in his body all
over, and he paid no attention to
them at all. He was perfectly
numb. So the doctors got togeth-
er and called on the sick man to
experiment. All arrived with pins
and needles and bodkins. The
man was asleep and they got
around him, and each one stuck
his pin in the patient. The sick
man rolled over and looked at the
crowd, and thought they had come
to dissect him, so he took a chair
In one hand and a bedpoSt 10 the
other, and drove the crowd thence.
They are around with their heads
tied up, looking for the man who
said that sick man had no feeling"

"The Availability of CRl0ro-
] form and Similar Agents inFa-
cilitating Robbery" was the
subject Of a lecture delivered
before the New York Medical
Legal Society at Its regular
meeting on Thursday evening.
DR.. Stephen Rogers, the speak
er, took the ground that zchloro-
form cannot be effectively used
in aid of robbery or in stdpe4
flying persons against their will
for any felonious purpose what
Isoever, He believed that no
we'll authenticated case of rob
berry, effected by means of chic
Iroform, was extant, and cited
numerous cases in which bur-
glars, said to have been effected
by its aid, poved after to have
been facilitated by the very in
corruptible guardians of prop
erty, who were declared to7haVe
been put under the influence of
the an@sthetic. He gave it as
his opinion thst no an3sthetic
could be effectually used unless
sufficient force were present to
hold the subject while the an
aesthetic was applied. f. In the
first place, the long time invaIi-
ably required for the gradual
oyerpoWering Of the victim,
would of itself be a great OBJ
lection to the use of the an@s-
thetic among thieves. More
over, the patient always gotin-
to wild state when coming un-
der the benumbing influence.
He got into state Of fchloroform
intoxication, singing, dancing
and shouting in way which
would alarm the sleepiest house
hold. Moreover, when in a
lethargic state the patient was
seized with violent vomitings,1
which would be likely to- tefmi-
nate life if no aid. were at hand, |
adding to the probable danger
of detection and the severity
of punishment to the cuIprit.1

number of MacMillan'8 Magaziae
Sir John Miller, a very wealthy
gentleman, died, leaving no chill

a very large jointure, but no will

at-law, a distant connection, nat.
urally claimed his rights, but
kindly allowed Lady Miller to re.
main six months in the house, to
complete her search for the miss

at length toa close, and the poor
widow had spent fruitless days
and weeks in examining every
possible place of deposit for the
lost document, till at last she
came to the conclusion that her
memory.must have deceived her,
and that her husband could have
made no such promise as she sup
posed, or had neglected to fulfill it,
had he made one. The very last
day OF her tenure Of the house
had just dawned, when, in the gray
of the morning, Lady Miller drove

TO his bed room door calling out,

John! There is a will p The
lawyer hastened to accompany
her back to her house. All she
could tell him was that her de-
ceased husband had appeared to
her that night, standing by her
bedside, and said solemnly,
"There is a will !" Where it'was,
remained as uncertain as before.
Once more the house was searched
in vain, from cellar to loft, till
finally, wearied and in dispair,
the lady and her friend found
themselves in q garret at the top
of the house. at is all over,
Lady Miller said. 81 give it up /;

am ruined p At that moment
she looked at the old table over
which she was weeping. "This
table was in his study orce Let
us examine it!' They looked,
and the missing will, duly signed
and sealed, was within it, and the
widow was rich to the end of her
days. 1t needs no conjuror to
explain how the anxiety called
up the myth of Sir John Miller's
apparition, and made him say pre-
cisely what he had once before
said to her, but of which the
memory had waxed faint.
