Panoramic Photography.

A new French apparatus, called the
cylindrograph, is designed to photo
graph at single operation a wide
sweep of the ad accent country. The in
strument consists of q camera Of semi
circular form, with 4 small lens in the
center, which moves on an axis. The
dark slide is Of some material which
will bend. and when view is to be
taken the lens is turned upon tho center
from one side Of the landscape to the

GreatLoss of Timber.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 4.-Of the destruc-
ton of our timber lands the commissioner
of agriculture thus speaks:
The establishment of arbor Or tree planting,
already adopted in fifteen of our states and
territories, is one of the most encouraging
signs for the advancement of forestry. Its
extension throughout the country should be
argued by every proper consideration. Its
general establishment would be among the
most effective means of creating throughout
the community proper sentiment in regard
to trees, and lead to their adequate protec-
tion. On the other hand the waste of our
forests goes on at an alarming rate. Little,
if anything, has been done to check the an
violators of the law, or where occasioned by
sparks from locomotives, the destruction
caused by the axe of the lumberman or loss
by depreciation of public lands. To stop
these several losses, each lamenrably great,
the division has done what it could by making
facts known to the commissioner of the land
Office the only one who is authorized to pros
ecute such offenders. In view of the contin-
ued destruction Of timber on government
lands, and the Importance Of preserving for
permanent cultivation and use such portions
Of forests as are adjacent to the head springs
of rivers, or which may be needed for cli-
matte or other reasons, it is respectfully
urged that the further sale of timber lands
belonging to the government ought to be
suspended until such q time as careful sur
vey shall ascertain what portion of them may
be sold without involving injury to the coun-
try and what ought to be permanently held
in the forest condition.

A STRANGE CASE,
What a Doctor Found Inside of a
Young Bachelor.

CHICAGO, Dec. 4.-Dr. James M. Hatch
inson, one of the surgeons at the Cook
county hospital. last Tuesday performed
peculiar surgical operation, which he thus
describes: A young man of 35 years was
taken to his mothers home on Latin street,
Nov. 4, sick in peculiar way. On Nov.
was called to see him. He had led the
rapid life of bachelor who seldom goes
home, and he had fat paunchy stomach
on him. I made an incison and drew off
three quarts of milky white fluid. / could
not account for it. l could find no light in
medical literature. I kept tapping him,
and in twenty-seven days drew off eighteen
gallons of the strange fluid. He was drop
/ sical, bnt why the fluid was milky white I
could not tell. | decided upon an investi-
cation, and on Tuesday made an incision in
the abdomen. l drained him out and made
an opening six inches in length, laying the
intestines bare. They looked natural, but
1 reached in after his liver and found ma
lignant sore. cancerous, I should say.
Then 1 went for his spleen. found it adj
herring to the abdominal walls. But this
did not account for the milky color of the
secretions, and traced up the lacteal duct.
which empties into the left subclavical
vein, and found rupture. The fluid, in
stead of going to nourish the body. had
been going to color the matter in the alb
dOminal cavity. I was satisfied. 1 closed
up the opening in the duct. washed the
man out, carbolized him, stitched up the
opening, but left vent tube, and the man
will get well.

Sherman Looms Up,

Special TO the GlOOe-
WASHINGTON, Dec. 4.-The probability
tonight is very strong that Senator Sher-
man will be elected tomorrow. Senator
Sherman has had no important chairman
ship since he returned to the senate from
the treasury department. What he wants
more than anything else is to
be chairman of the finance COM
mittee, but the senators do not
want to disturb Senator Morrill,. Senator
Sherman has had the craftsmanship of the
library committee and places on the finance
and foreign affairs committee. He got
miffed because he didn't have influence
enough on the finance committee
and resigned last spring. His
place was never filled, and the
door is open for him to return, but he is not
likely to ask for place that he gave up in
huff. Some people think he doesn't want
to be president pro tenn. but many de-
sire to give 1t to him as con-
ISOLATION for being denied any
thing he wants very much. His position
on the foreign affairs committee is not alto
gether to his mind, for the chairman, Sem
ator Miller of California, is much his junior
both in age and in public service. At any
rate the place will in all probability be
offered to him tomorrow. His election
would not be gratifying to Democrats. He
was an accessory both before and after the
fact to the Hayes fraud, and the Demo-
Gratis regard him as Gne of the most un-
scrupulous men of the country, politically

The secretary concurs in the recommended
ton of Gen. Sheridan of concentrating
troops and putting large garrisons in the
vicinity of large cities, and the addition of
two companies and two majors to each regi-
ment of infantry. The secretary also
concurs in the recommendation that legis-
laJive provision be made authorizing the re-
tention of West Point graduates tosserve as
additional second lieutenants in the army,
provided vacancies in the army are not
sufficient to accommodate all of those who
graduate from the academy.
The report recommends legislation for
the improvement OF militia and that state
troops be armed with the weapon as the
regular army. The report of the judge
advocate general shows that II, 900 enlisted
men of the army were tried by
court martial during the year,
but majority of the offenses
charged. it is assumed. were trivial in char
acter. The secretary speaks of the reports
submitted upon the necessity for coast de-
fenses and the improvement of the Missis-
sippi river, but makes no general recon-
mendation- He urges the necessity for ap-
pointment of an assistant secretary of wal.

mexican Government Problems.

Cry OF MEXICO, Dec. 4.-Slow progress
is being made in securing an agreement
between the government and the railway
companies. There is bill now before
congress to require all railway companies to
complete their lines within five years, the
government to fund the outstanding subsidy
in loan at per cent. A bill providing
for free banking has been unanimously re-
ferred to the finance committee of congress.
This is taken to mean the defeat of the
National bank in its endeavor to be sus-
tanned as the only legal bank of issue. The
silver bill is agitating the press. and great
interest is taken in President Cleveland's
forthcoming message. The treasury cash
balance for November is less than $50, 900.
