Care of the Drowning

DR.. Howard, medical officer of New York
harbor, recently explained at the receiving
house of the Royal Humane society, Lon
don, his method of resuscltatIng persons
taken from the water in state of insensibil-
ity. The principles upon which he acts are
those of clearing away the water and the
mucus which prevent the entrance of sir
into the lungs, and the imitation of the
movements of the chest in respiration.
He first empties the stomach and passages
of water. For this he places the patient
face downward, puts q roll of something
hard under the pit of the stomach, so that
it is above the level of the mouth, and then
presses with all his force on the back.
Afterward, to set up artificial breathing,
instead of the partial rolling of the booy or
the pumping action of the arms now prac-
ticed, the body is laid upon the back with
the clothes stripped down to the waist The
pit OF the stomach is now raised to the
highest point by something under the back
A bundle of clothing or the body of another
man will do for this The head is thrown
back and the tongue must be drawn for
ward by an assistant, so as to keep open
entrance to the air tubes. The hands are
passed over the head, the wrists crossed, the
arms kept firmly extended. In this position
the chest is fully expanded. The operator
then kneels astride the body, places his
hands on the lower part of the ribs, and
steadily and gradually makes compression.
Balancing on his knees he inciines himself
forward till his face nearly touches that of
the patient and so lets fall the whole weight
of his body upon the chest When this has
yielded as much as it will, he throws him.
self back by sudden push, to his first erect
position of kneeling. and the elastic ribs by
their expanding bellows action draw air
repeated Regularly IL to 10 times in the
mIpute.

A Little Baby Poisoned by Eating WALL
Paper-Fire.
Special to the Sentinel:
MADISON, Ind, July pa little child,
named Selig, residing In the East End, took
violently sick Saturday, Ind in a few minutes
began vomiting blood. DIR. Hutchings was
called, and informed the people that the babes
symptoms indicated arsenical poison. They
were quite sure that such poison could not
have entered the child's stomach. An emetic
was administered and the babe vomited
among other things three bits of green
wall paper, which it had got
ten hold of and swallowed. The
green eolors in wall paper are nearly always
produced by the use of arsenic.
A stable on the premises of Mrs. Bette
Wharton was fired and burned by some mis-

A Prominent Indiana Manufacturers In
ventiOn-Reviyal in the Iron Interest
Tried and Acquitted-A Poisoned Creek
No Yellow Fever.
Special to the Sentinel: 8J
New ALBANY, Ind, July 2s.-An important
discovery, which has been patented, has been
made by Captain John B. Ford, formerly of
this city, but now residing at JefersonviIle,
and the originator and builder of the rolling
mills, glass works and axe works of this city,
and the plate glass works at Louisville and
Jacksonville. Captain Ferd's discovery is for
the manufacture of gas, water and sewer pipe
from glass. The glass can be made from one
half to IL inches in thickness, according to
the diameter Of the pipe, and 1t is claimed
that it win stand a greater pressure than iron.
AS the materials for its manufacture abound
in all sections of the country, it is proposed to
make it near where it is to be used While
contrary to our general ideas of such matters,
it is claimed it can be made at cost
of IS per ton, of course, much less than
is paid for freight large portion of the
iron pipe now used. 20
The revival in the iron interest of this city
Is very marked. iAll the rolling mills and
foundr1es full of ORDERS and there is
steady advance both in the demand for and
price of IRON. As a result, all the rolling mills
are being run with full force. A scarcity of
old rails compels the rail-miH to
start Its pudding furnaces, which
has also been done elsewhere
at the rail mills. The railroad spike machine,
idle for two years by reason of the slack de-
mand and low prices, have been put in oper-
alton, the increase in railroad construction
and the relaying of track on established roads,
creating demand for spikes greater than at
any time since 1873. This prosperity in the
rolling mill department of the iron interest
will create demand for and advance in the
price of pig IRON and it is believed that within
q few months all the furnaces in Indiana will
be in full blast.
