the stomach, and to make it the more
sure, the space between the inner and
outer globe is kept supplied with a cur
rent of cold water by means Of small
India rubber tubes inclosed in the main
tube. Then the tissues of the human
body are comparatively translucent,
and when the current of electricity is
turned on the internal organization, it
is said, becomes distinctly visible. The
experiment of illuminating the in
terror of fish has often been performed
by amateur electricians, the straight
lines and simple structures of the fish
facilitate the introduction of the APP
paratus. What is really novel there
fore in Herr Letters apparatus re-
mains to be described. It is the addi-
ton he makes of a series of mirrors
and lenses, by means of which the
light coming from the illuminated
stomach is sent back up the tube to
which the lantern is attached and
reaching the eyepiece outside the pa
TENTS body is viewed by the surgeon.
But small portion of the surface
of the stomach is thus brought into our
view, it is true, but it is enough from
which to make diagnosis. II a broader
field is desired to be covered, it is done
by revolving the lantern. BY the agency
of little notched wheel, with teeth
playin- into ring in the interior of
the tube, the whole lower part of the
apparatus may DE revolved without
the necessity Of Withdrawing il for a
new adjustment. Though but little
known as yet, this instrument has been
PIT, it is said, to the test of practical
use, and we can scarcely doubt that 1t
will soon come to form recognized
part of the stock of instruments in
hands of every surgeon. Happily for
Herr Letters invention its introduc-
ton into general use has been render
ed possible by NJ. FauIe's secondary
battery for strong electricity. Without
the latter the gas;roscope could have
but limited use, since to obtain the
high degree of light required very
strong galvanic battery would have
been needed, and such a battery few
physicians possess or would care to
be troubled with. AS it it is, one large
Faure's cell, which the physieian can
readily carry with him in his buggy, is
all that is needed for into-gastric dag

Recent Changes in Niagara.

new L OH observer.
One who returns to Niagara after q
long absence notes the marked changes
taking place in the face of the catar-
act. My first visit here was made in
the year 1874, thirty seven years ago.
Then the broad expanse of Table
Rock was the platform on which sue
cessive thousands stood. Many crept
softly to the verse and looked into the
abyss. Others more cautiously lay on
their faces and gazed at the crystal
currents as it broke into jewels and
fell in stream from the awful height
Now the broad platform has fallen, and
the work of undermining is going still
further on. In forty years more the
present standpoint will be in the depths
below. But more remarkable is the
change in the shape of the Horseshoe
Fall itself. Then it was perfect seq
ment of circle, SO nea ly like the
heel of q horseshoe as to suggest the
fitness of it's name. Now vast masses
of rock have been dislodged and wide
in the middle of the curve, making a
harp and wide diversion of current,so
that the torrents pours into midway
gulf, from which the mist rises con-
stanty. This does not diminish, but
perhaps exchanges, the interest of the
cataract. 1t breaks the circuit, destroys
the perfect symmetry of the curve. 1t
proves that the recession of the fall is
going on with far greater force than
Mr.. Lyell and his brethren in geology
calculated, when they supposed they
had estimated the ages by the progress
backward of the verge Of Niagara. If
IN half the lifetime of m dern man
such changes have occurred, what
may not have beea wrought by these
mighty forces of nature in 5000 years ?

Physicians have long been in pos
session of instruments-co
small acknowledged to assist them
in getting look at the interior part Of
the human body, such as the back
part of the mouth, the throat, the in
ner ear, etc. The dentists mirror,
perched on a flexible joint, is familiar
to all. But it has long been desirable
to penetrate to the stomach of pa
tient afflicted with gastric troubles
and see by actual inspection what is
its condition. Thus may often be
gained during the lifetime Of man the
valuable information obtained at pres
ent by post norton examination for
the mortuary report, and what has
hitherto served too late to crafty the
curiosity Of the doctor may go to saw
ing the life of the patient. In a word.
a means of diagnosing the condition of
the stomach by sight, rather than
guessing. has long been wanted, and
Herr Letter of Vienna has patented an
instrument destined to supply the
want. The Gastroscope is al electric
lantern and mirror combined, which
fixed upon the end of flexible tube,
is inserted bodily into the stomach, be-
ing passed down the throat of the pa
tent with its equipment of wires for

Possible Clue TO Another Murder Per-
petrafed by Them

A dispatch from St. Paul, says: Ed.
Maxwell one Of the Wisconsin
des peradoes, who was lynched az
Durand, before his death gave
to Pioneer. Press reporter q de-
scnption Of his own and his brother
Ions travels after they escaped from
Wisconsin. According to his statement,
they wandered up through Minnesota
until they reached Breckenridge, and
from there went to Leach Lake, where
they remained until about the first of
October, when they struck south for
Sioux City, travelling only at night and
hiding days. Now as Herman is about
100 miles southwest Of Leach Lake,
nearly on direct line to Sioux City
and as it would take them seven or
eight days to arrive in the vicinity Of
Herman, might not these facts have a
tendency to explain the mysterious
death of John Graham, who was shot
down in cold hood near Herman on
the night If the 9Th of October last.
Taking Ed. Maxweil's story to be true,
and we have no reason to believe other
wise, as he would have no object in
lying, it is very reasonable to presume
that the Maxwell, alias Williams
brothers, killed poor John Graham.
