Some things are put into these river and

to "improve" streams upon which there
is little or no navigation. Nevertheless,
these bills in the main make appropri-

to be ono of the most extraordinary
cases ever recorded in the history OF
surgery or medical jurisprudence
James Gaupell, French canadian. en-
ployed at Ramey's mills, fell from .
trestle about twelve feet to the ground.
After recovering from the shock result.
ing from the fall he was unable TO move
his head, and DR.. Edwards, attending
physician, discovered that the neck
was dislocated and some Of the bones
broken; but IL was evident that the spi-
nal column had not been severed. The
doctor reset and put the fractured neck
In posi- ton, and set about deviBing means
TO putit.in place, until the broken bones
and confused ligamenis attain their
norma condition. To this end q muslin
bandags three inches wide was wrapped
tightly around the neck, and to II were
attached two Tugs, one on either side
To these q rope was fastened, and ran
over a pulley hxed to the ceiling oil the
room
A bucket was Suspended on the other
end of the rope, and In IL were placed
various weights, so that the patient can
adjust the cOntrlvance rs OCCASION may
require by simply reaching To the bucket
and removing or adding on" or two
weights. He remains in a sitting posture,
and should any slight change of position
occur tho tension OF the rope Will still

GAS FOR 80 CENTS PER 1000
FEET,

FEET.
At the examination of the Gas
Trust Committee, yesterday, in Phil.
adelphia, an engineer from New
York gas works testified that coal gas
OF 10 candle power can be placed in
the holder ready for distribution at So
cents per thousand cubic feet. Engi-
neer Park took sumo exception, ask
ing witness il he could produce proof
of his statement from any coal gas
works in this country. The answer
was given that Mr.. Kennedy could
verify every word he had said, and in
addition he remarked that he could
manufacture coal gas at SO cents per
1000 cubic feet placed in the holder -
Engineer Park, with an explanation
that 1t was a perfectly legitimate
question. asked: "Can't you make it
for 83 cents per ,0009" The witness
also affirmed this without explaining
his position with any definilsness, and
the subject dropped. Mr.. Bardsley
submitted some questions to the ex-
pert, which he desired answered at
the next meeting, incidentally inquir-
ing Of Mr.. Park the price paid for coal
by the Trust this year.
"We have no contracts for 1881"
replied the Philadelphia engineer,
''but are using the coal bought last
year. Four hundred thousand tons
cost from 81 % to 81 80 and 5000 tons
he got for 81 a."
Chairman Bardsley announced that
he had been absent from the meeting
on Tuesday, and desired Mr.. Kenne-
dy to explain how he came TO be en-
ployed. The latter stated that it was
in consequence of letter addressed 10
his father by Mr.. Page, who had ask
ed for some information in relation to
gas matters. Mr.. Page had telegraph
cd TO him ON Friday last and he came
over on Saturday.
"Have you been under pay slnoe
Saturday." inquired Select Council
man MeMullin.
II have not given the subject
thought" answered Mr.. Kennedy.
On motion Of Mr.. Page the action
of the Committee in fixing tho term
of service by the witness at three
days was reconsidered, and he was
employed as long as knowledge was
required at $25 per day with ex penses
TO be added. Squire McMullin fred
a parting shot in the remark, "We
can well afford Mr.. Kennedy $25 day
for the information he gives US, but
the Mutual Gas Company of Now
York ought to pay 800 day for tn
notices they are getting"

The Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1877-1885, 1881-10-19

In regard to Gladstone's action in arrest
ing Parnell the New York World expresses
the following opinion:
'fOur London correspondent Mr.. JeE:
nings. is of the opinion. it will be seen,
that the course pursued by the British Gov
eminent in regard to Mr.. Parnell will
eventually result in the disgrance and
overthrow of . the Gladstone Administra-
''tion." 1t is quite obvious, as the World
pointed out on Friday, that Mr.. Parnell
was encouraged and led on in his policy
from the first by the premier who now
turns upon and rends him. And, not con-
tent with this, Mr.. Gladstone, it appears,
has declared war of words against the
Irish landlords at the very moment which
he has selected for sileucing the leader of
the Irish Land League. How Ireland or
any other country can be successfully ruled
in such fashion as this it is not easy to
see. And yet it is Mr. Gladstone.s first
and immediate duty now to rule Ireland.
He has assumed the entire responsibility of
preserving order and promoting the gen
eral prosperity in Ireland. If he fails to
discharge this responsibility not Ireland
only but Great Britain will have a formid-
able account to settle with him. !"
The Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1877-1885, 1881-10-19

Adviccs from Dublin to-day report that
the Land League has notsuccumbed to the
knock-down blow it received by the arrest
of Mr.. Parnell. Nobody pretends that Mr..
Parnell is great tribute like O'Conne1l
but if he is deficient in oratory, he can beat
the Liberator at organization. The League
holds together because it is not single
body so much as a great federation of local
clubs. The government has broken up the
executive by Selling Healy, Sexton, Dillon
and other leaders, and impounding the
books and papers under the Conspiracy
act; but if they wish to efface the organic
alton they must arrest all the local leaders
ana indict every man likely to take their
place. In the old days it was easy enough
to break up Irish leagues. AS rule they
consisted of but one central body, with
loose following in the country which usu-
ally contained large percentage of inform
ers. But Mr.. Parnell has created an in
stitution so perfect in its way that it will
live even if every man in authority is
thrown into Jail. Mr.. Gladstone has now
to show the English people that, the policy
of concession having failed, he is able to
govern Ireland with mailed hand. The
Premier's position was seriously weakened
by his own course when he was in opposition
He was then in the habit of declaring that
the agitators were justified in demanding
sweeping reforms, that coercion was
weapon that ought to be cast into the po-
litical lumber-room, and that the. Irish
should be governed by the craftsmanship
of the nineteenth century" Well, he has
tried that sort of craftsmanship ON big
scale. The Disestablished Act was a very
mild measure compared with the Land Act,
which recognizes doctrines as dwelling"
as any preached in the Socialist camp at
Soho square, and which, after ALL has not
conciliated the people. The forcible-feeble
policy has failed, and what the outcome in
Ireland will be is more than anybody can
tell.

During the last session of the senate
David Davis was offered the Craftsmanship
of the judiciary committee This honor he
declined in speech which read thus:
Mn. PRESIDENT: Before casting my vote
ON this occasion, it is proper for me to state
the reasons that determine it. In 1877 the
legislature of Illinois unexpectedly elected
ed me senator was not in any sense
candidate for this honor, and when applied
to for the use of my name declined to
answer the request. Numerically the re-
publicans had q plurality of that egisla-
ture, and my distinguished colleague (Mr.
Logan was their nominee. The demo
Gratis stood next in strength, and small
body of Independents held the balance of
the power. The two last united, and they
voluntarily conferred upon me the dis

In referring to the arrest of Parnell the
London Times makes a distinction too fine
for the common understanding. In its
leading article says: Mr. Gladstone can
affort to disregard that taunt, which is GER
tain to be flung at aim, that Mr.. Parnell's
arrest was due to his offensive personalities.
In this new rousing of the law there is no
fear that the cabinet viii not receive hearty
and unwavering support from every party.
Approval in the three kingdoms of the
arrest is only denied here and there by
few associations which habitually mistake
license for liberty.

thas Mr.. Eessenden:or Judge ceIlamar or

but then it must be admitted that it would
not be easy to name senator of to-day
who qnite maintains the lofty standard Of
these gentlemen. Their pure and noble
conception of the dignity of senator is
rather traditional in the body which they
once adorned.
This is all the testimony we have by
which to judge of Senator Davis opinions
and the reason of his late action. It is
testimony which has eninated solely from
time In view of this are we justified in
saying there was no bargain
