Gus. Some people, however, could not
help fainting at the sight of blood. An
internal hemorrhage was, however, be-
yond the reach of the unprofessional.
Crushed members and injured parts Of
the body should be stepped in hot water

the patient, almost ninety-three degrees
Fahrenheit. Cold water also stopped
bleeding by contracting the blood vessels.
1t was a singular thing that both hot and
cold water had an excellent healing effect
on bruises, and prevented, in most cases,
modification.
Another emergency was that of pain,
which most frequently occurred to chill
dren, often causing loss of sensation. A
common thing with children was the ear
or eye ache. Collie was another horrible
agony. They had always within their
reach for relieving such pains-hot water.

pain. Make the application continuous

the heat of the cloths, stepped in hot

best thing was to have wringer near
the afflicted one and, after dipping the
cloths in very hot water, apply the cloth
to his face or body.
Medicines for alleviating pain were
generally charged with opium, about
which a great outcry was made. OF

the exodus in Kansas, during a four
weeks t-avsl through the state, writes
letter from here giving his eonclu

as the accumulation of refugees at
the barracks, now nearly 700, for
whom no places can be found, clearly
indicates. Judging from what be has
learned from the refugees Themselves,
and from the increasing number,
from twenty five to fifty arriving every

predicts that the movement TO Kansas

A HAPPY NEW YEAR.

THE NEW York Produce Exchange
ha, finally adopted the GENITAL system,
deciding that hereafter all kinds o.
produce soall be sold by weight, the
pound avoirdupois and its multiple
100 pounds being substituted for the
measures. Several boards OF trade
throughout the country have accepted
or endorsed the action of the New
York Exchange, and all must even t
ually do so, in order to bring about a
uniformity go much needed. The
measures vary in nearly eve7p state,
ana vary also WITH the different Kinds
of grain. Az SD instance, the legal
weight of q bushel of rye varies in the
several states from 80 to Sc pounds,
the Latter being the standard in most
cases. There are even greater varia.
tiops in the legal weight of bushel Of
niost OF the other grains, except
wheat, which is uniformly sixty
pounds. The change will be appre-
oistsd and its advantages approved as
soon as it comes into general use.

Boston, 81.-The death of Mrs.

of universal comment. The daughter,

fact that two st OF, we're fred, ons OF

brain and producing fatal results.
The bullet in the brain was extracted
and q fattened bullet, which undoubt-

case in deeper mystery, as the gentle

That Interview Denied

San Francisco, 31.-Regarding the
alleged interview in the cast with
senstor Jones, which went the rounds

represented as saying that the Com

Colorado afforded a much better field
for mining operations than Nevada, a
reporter Of the Gold Hill Nelos. today,
interviewed Jones On the subject. The
senator declared that he had no
recollection of ever having been inter
viewed on the subject and certain y
never expressed such sentiments as
t g il ssrview attributed to him. He
was sure of this, because he never
entertained such sentiments and a
man would not be likely 10 mis-
represent himself. As to the present

Miss SUSAN B. ANTHONY feels hope
iul over the prospects of the woman
suffrage movement. She tells q
Chicago reporter that the woman's
cause is steadily and surely gaining
ground, and that one OF these days
the dear creatures will obtain all oil
their pei teal rights. She says, con.
corning the present situation:
While the public agitation or excite
inert in the movement seems to be less
than 1t was, the gen raj public sentiment
Is growing very rapidly ID its favor. We
have not gained suffrage per SC any
where, but we have gained great many
little points of considerable importance
The fact that SIX legislatures have granted
the sehc suffrage 20 women shows the
advance of public sentiment, and the
many wOmen's benev lent organizations
are the results of the education accomp-
liShed by the women sutfcagists, The
women have been t>ught to believe that

ton of humanity, d not be afra d to do
It You may add to this, too. the open
ing of all colleges, trades and professions
to women as additional results OF our agi
tation.
