One Of the most astonishing feats of
surgery that has ever been known,
traspired at Denver recently, and was
made by Drs. Finch and Armitage.
They secured two dogs, and one of them
was bled to death. Every evidence and
token of death appeared, the eyes glaz-
ed all motion and respiration ceased,
and the body was allowed to lay three
hours in a room kept at zoe. At the end
of that time, the carcass had stiffened
and there was no sign Of life. Then the
surgeons went to work. opened the veins
Of the dog. injected the blood into the
veins Of the dead animal, after first put
ting the body in a warm water bath and
forcing a pint Of warm water down its
throat. Artificial respiration was in
duced with bellows and a rubber tube.
After a few moments, the eyes charged,
the dead dog commenced to struggle as
if in a fit. finally it sat up and in a
couple of hours was ready to take 10th
that had been prepared. Thus life was
absolutely brought back to the dead.
The dog was lively and on the street the
next day. This feat proves that the life
is in the blood. 1t suggests startling
possibilities in the treatment Of man
kinds disease. Can the blood, which
holds the germs of disease, be all taken
away, and fresh blood from the veins OF
several friends injected and disease
cured? 1t is a wonderful discovery and
may be a boon to humanity.

Uncle Sam,s Stock Field.

New York Herald We have Just re-
ceived from the chief Of the bureau Of
statistics in Washington q report in re-
gard to the range and ranch cattle bust
ness Of the United States. The i'm
portance of this branch Of American in
dustry is emphasized by figures so large
that they almost make ones head swim.
The first statement in the report is
that the cattle ranch ares embraces
about 1865 900 square miles. and there
fore constitutes nearly "A per cent Of the
total area Of the United States. Our
readers car better understand its extent
when we say that it is equal to Great
Britain and Ireland, France, Germany.
Denmark, Holland, Belgium, Austria,
Hungary, Italy, Spain and Portugal and
one-ffth of Russia in Europe.
All this territory is devoted to beef.
We feed the world. The roast beef of
old England even comes from the great
west. More than 100000 cattle Craze
on the green plains east of the Rocky
mountains, and their value reaches the
snug little sum of about $500, 600, 900.
There is hardly a country on the globe
to which these cattle are not sent, either
on the hoof or nicely packed in cans or
laid on ice. The steaks, the beef soup,
the hash of all CT eation are provided by
the picturesque and ~irrepressible cow
boys who roam the praities.
II is rather a significant fact, how
ever, that q 100000 acres of this grazing
land, together with the herds thereon,
are owned by English syndicates and
English noblemen. $40
