A Remarkable Case.
st. Paul Pioneer Press.

st. Paul Pioneer Press.
At st. Luke's hospital an operation was
performed in the presence of several sur
geons and interested witnesses upon Will
liam BOeckler, young man who has been
sick for week with severe hemorrhages,
which gives every promise of saving his
life and effecting his complete restoration
to health. The patient had been suffering
from daily hemorrhages, which reduced
him from strong and vigorous man, in
less than a week, toso emaciated a condi-
ton that unless something was promptly
done his death would have resulted in
few hours at the farthest. He was so
weak that the usual remedies utterly
failed to stop the bleeding caused by
quinsy. DR.. Depolph, who was in attend
ance, after the failure of all other at
tempts to save the patient, decided to at
tempt the TRANSMISSION of blood into Boeck-
ler's system, taken from a sheep. Drs.
Depolph, Stone, Stamm and Mcdonald
met at st. Luke's hospital and performed
like. wax, and he was so weak as to be
hardly conscious. A live sheep was
brought in, and, when all was ready, a
tube was inserted into the carotid artery
in the animals neck, then into proml-
nent vein in the sick mans right arm.-
The blood spurted through the enclosure,
and was permitted to continue till Boeck-
ler commenced to breathe short and fast.
Then. the tube was removed. All the
while the patients condition was care
fully watched, and it is estimated that
about six ounces of the blood of the sheep
passed into his arm. He soon after COM
menced to revive, and last evening at a
late hour was feeling much better. The
| physicians see no reason why he should
not completely recover. The operation is
unusual, but is not regarded as a remark
ably delicate one. 1t is the first of the
kind performed in the State, and probably
the first west of Chicago, as far as any
record is to be found.

A general law was placed in the Senate
of the Forty-ifth Congress, authorizing
persons desiring to settle on public lands
within railroad limits to claim their home
stead out of odd sections in all States ex-
cept Missouri and Arkansas. On the very
last day of the extra session, the Senate
bill, having the unanimous approval of
the committee on Public Lands, passed
the House and became a law, granting
additional rights to settlers on railroad
lands within these two States; authoriZ-
ing them to claim their homesteads out of
odd sections, just as they could do in other
States. The general law, which is per-
fected by the new law, gives to every per-
son the right to enter 160 acres instead Of
so acres, as heretofore. The new bill pro-
vides that odd sections within the limits
of any grant of public lands to any rail-
road company in the States of Missouri
and Arkansas, or to these States in aid of
any railroad where even sections have
been granted, shall be open to settlers
under the Homestead laws to the extent
of 160 acres. 1t further provides that
any person who has, under existing laws,
taken a homestead or any section within
the limits of any railroad grant in these
two States, who have been restricted to SO
acres, may enter an additional eighty
acres of adjoining land embraced within
his original entry. If additional and is
SUBJECT to entry ne may, II ne Wlshes,
surrender his entry to such States for
cancellation, and thereafter can enter
lands under the Homestead laws the same
as though the surrendered entry had moi
| been made. He can do so without pay
ment of fees and commissions. 1t pro-
vides also that the residence of such per.
! sons, upon cultivation of land embraced
in his original entry, shall be considered
residence and cultivation for the same
| length of time upon any of land embraced
| in his additional or new entry, and shal
be deducted from five years residence
and cultivation required by law; pro
vided that in no case shall patent issue
upon an addition or new homestead entry
under this act until the person has actu
ally and in conformity with the Home
stead laws occupied, resided upon, ant
cultivated land embraced therein at leas
one year.

Getting Ria of ,he smoke OF cities.

The black smoke which pours from the
chimneys of manufactures, disiguring
houses and making life in such cities as
Pittsburg disagreeable, represents great
waste of fuel. Part of this loss can not
be prevented, though some of it can put

cover the cost of the apparatus. The I'M

of commercial value. At all events they
are much better in the tank than floating
about in the atmosphere. Attention has
hitherto been directed TO inventions de-
signed to secure a more perfect combus-

Two thousand liquor dealers in Balti-
more last year paid $780, 200 for licenses
or indulgences; the court and Jail ex-
penses amounted to $875, 900. The cash
sales of liquor during the year amounted
TO $l0,0O0,00O. Seventy-five per cent. of
shat amount, it is believed, was paid by
poor men whose families are made squalid
and wretched by the rum curse.

loss in fencing was great along the river

III sing you song Of Printer Boy,
Whose bright and honorcd name
Stands out in glowing CAPITALS
Upon tho scroll of fame
Who, in the days that tried mon's souls,
In Frecdom's darkest night
Stood out mnnfully with WASHINGTON
And buttled for tho right;
BEN FRANKLIN was that Printer Boy-one
of the oldcn timo.
And it was that boy who few Ills kite
To the thunder clouds on high,
And brought the forked lightning down
From the regions of the sky;
Twas lie who caught this fiery horse,
And trained him for tho chase
Till, now, he's driven safo by MORSE,
Right to tho Printers ouso.
BEN FRANKLIN was that Printer Boy-ono
Of the oldcn time.
Long shull the world extol his name
Tho Patriot and tho Sage
Who, fully ''justlicd" by faith,
Was "proved" by every page;
His "form" "correctcd" and "revised,"
Is now "workcd Off aud ''pressed;"

A s'star" among tho blest.
All honor to that PRINTER BoY-ono of

Concealed Weapons.

Judge Thompson, as reported by tho
I4aurensvllo Herald in his charge to the
jury in tho case of Blackwell, under trial
for murder, made the following just and
appropriate remarks in relation to tho COW
ardly and barbarous practice of carrying
deadly weapons.
ono man when injured has tho right to
determine tor himself the mode of redress.
Could such an act be rightly exercised by
one person, then every other member of the
community would also be entitled to it..
Then every mans judgment, clouded by
passion or blinded by interest, would soon
be disiutcgrated and resolved into its Gle.
ments. The obvious intcnt of punishment,
then, is protection of life aud property; and
protection is given to the law-abiding man
to keep him law-abiding-to keep tho good
man good man STILL Without protection
and redress from injury tho obcdicnt citizen
would soon take the law into his own hands
aud swell tho hosts Of law breakers How
destructive to society, then, is the practice
of currying deadly weapons 1t is n tucit
assertion that the law is not sufficient for
protection, or that the woarer will not be
governed by law. 1t is c declaration that
tho wearcr is an outlaw, and has resumed
his natural rights. The Arab of the desert
when he returns to his home, lays aside lis
spear in the corner of his tent; but the
young American comes to tho tabc on
which rests the food his father has Just
blessed, and sits between mother aud sister
with a concealed weapon on his person.
He claims and receives the advantage and
protection of tho law from ull law-abidng
men, yet himself dsavows obedience to
that law. lie adds tho unfair advantage Of
possessing weapon intended for nggres
sion, and which experience has shown
stimulates the wearcr to deeds of violence
and crime. Think for moment how tho
possession of such weapon is calculated TO
to annihilate the principles of law which
enter into sclf-defcnse This law, natural
right in itself, is in this State the same as
it is in England: That tho killing must be
done without fault OH the part of the slayer;
that the party must honestly avoid the
conflict-rctreat as far as he can with safety
to himaclf, and take tho life of his adversary
as tho only means of saving his own.
These conditions may be complied with
and with self respect toby one who has
no pistol in his pocket; but how difficult
the restraint when tho means of resistance
or revenge arc within easy grasp of his own
person.
