Cocoaine, the new anasthetic, is a colorless fluid not unlike glyce; rine. Under its effects a patient in a hospital the other day sub mitted to the ball of his eye being punctured by a delicate spear head knife, and in its place a small suction pump inserted which brought out some pus from a sac which the knife had cut while the patient, mentally con scious. chatted pleasantly with the operator, as insensible of the operation as though it were being performed on his hat-band.

Secretary Lamar has declared that no person, singly or in squads, shall trespass upon lands belonging to Indians. That the treaties made with them must and shall be observed not only by the government but by the people. This is right, and we hope that the Secretary will at once proceed to eject the big cattle men from the Oklahoma lands, although they recklessly declare that they won't go. If any one is to receive benefits from the lands tied up to The Indians it should be the actual settler, not the representative of combined capital.

Land once Appointments

WASHINGTON, May Two appoint
ments are soon to be made in the land
office branch Of the interior department.
These are the surveyor generals for Dako-
ia and Minnesota. Mr.. Lamar says that
these appointments may be reached before
very long in due course, by which he
means that a systematic examination is
being made into the character, antece-
dents and official services of every Office
holder who can be removed, and should
be for good cause. 1t is known that dur
ing the last few days MI. Lamar has
sought information in regard to NJ. S.
Chandler, surveyor general of Minnesota,
and Cortez Fessenden, surveyor general of
Dakota. He is Of the opinion that Mr.. Fes-
sender should be removed. Mart Chand-
ler's removal will be based on the statement
that he is what is technically called an
offensive partisan. The Dakota appoint
ment is expected this week, and the lucky
man is said to be a resident Of Deadwood.
More than this cannot be learned at the
department at present, Mr.. Donnelly is
regarded as very likely to be appointed in
Minnesota. The president said one day
last week to Senator Sabin that he should
select, ifpossible, a good surveyor, or at
any rate, a man who had some practical
knowledge of surveying This rule, it
seems, does not exclude the author of At
lanti, who had thorough training in early
life in practical and theoretical trigonome-
try, This rule Of getting men fitted for
the various places, has been found to work
excellently thus far, and the president is
especially pleased with these results. Gen.
Sparks, the land commissioner, was the
land Office register in Illinois at % years
of age, and has always had a large real
estate business to transact ever since. He
is credited with inaugurating the policy
of appointing men who have had exper-
fence in land business.

The Northweat Rebellion.

WINNIPEG, May IA wild rumor to-
night hat Middleton's force had a severe
battle with the rebels at Batouche, in
duced great excitement. The rumor,
however, has been pronounced entirely
b~aseless- 1t was not known that Middle
ton had moved from Camp South Ga
brieL. Advices from Clark's Crossing say
that the steamer Northcote will be
strengthened to-day and her vulnerable
parts rendered bullet proof. She will go
down the stream simultaneously with the
troops and attack Batouche from the
river. Edmonton advices say the region
north and east of here is full of h%ostiles,
in fact all Indians west Of Battleford are
in war paint The settlers have all fed.
John Walkinshaw and Albert iIark-
ness, both from Ontario, were killed by
Big Bears band over a week ago. Their
wives and the wives of the two mission
aries are prisoners. All four women are
being frightfully maltreated. Scouts
from the northeast say that Col. Otter
will have a fearful time of it. Pound
maker, Little Child and all the other
chiefs are on the war path. A number
of half-breeds are directing them. Maj
Steele was to have sent word back when
he reached Edmonton, but nothing has
been heard from him. There is a perfect
panic in the Eleanor districts. Scores of
homesteads have been burned.

TEHERAN, May 7.-Adyices from
Sarakhs state that a small force of Rus
slams, with four guns, occupy Penjdeh.
The same advices contain a statement
that the Russians have completely won
over the Sarakh Turcomans. The tele-
graph line is now completed to a point
100 miles beyond Askabad. There is an
apparent hull in Russian preparations for
war. The Afghan troops along Bala-
Murghab, not having received any pay
for a long time, are becoming greatly de-
moralized.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, May THE sena-
torial aspect has materially changed by
the events of the past forty-eight hours,
and Logan's chances appear very much
brighter, although it is not positively
known yet what Sistig viii do. That
gentleman, so soon as it became fully APP
parent that Weaver had been elected to-
day, left for home. The general impress
sion here is that he will fall into line
when the time comes, although he feels
sore over the abuse received when he
paired with Shaw. Logan is now fully
confident of his ultimate success, and cor
respondingly happy, as in fact arc all

The medical Record on Grant.

The Medical Record OF Grant.
NEW York, May 7.-Dr. George F..
Shrady in the Medical Record of May
9, will say of the condition of Gen. Grant:
During the past week Gen. Grants
bodily health was much improved. His
appetite is better and he has relish for his
food. Locally his disease shows a slight
tendency to progress. The palatal cur
tain is still considerably inflterated, al
though all signs of a cute inHammatory
trouble have disappeared. The ulcera-
ton at the base of the right anterior fau-
cial pillar alongside the tongue presents
a worm eaten surface, indicating an ex-
tension of the destructive process. The
breathing is free and the voice clear, but
the movements Of the tongue are some
what restricted, affecting articulation ae-
cordingly. Despite the favorable condi-
ton there have been no changes in the
local disease to warrant any modification
of the original diagnosis by the members
of the medical staff

A Big q Suit.

CHICAGO, May THE heirs Of Steph-
en- A. Douglass began a suit to-day in The
supreme court, asking that the Chicago
university property be transferred from
its present holders to them. The property
is advertised for sale next Saturday to sat
isiy n judgment of 5000, 900, secured by
mortgages, and there appears to be a pros
pect that the university trustees will not
be able to keep it from going into other
hands and probably into hands that will
devote it to other than educational uses.
This is the principal ground of the petit
TONERS. They are Stephen A. Douglass,
Jr., Mrs. Gen. Williams, formerly widow
Of the late Senator Douglass, and Robt.
NJ. Douglass. United States marshal Of
North Carolina.
The bill sets fourth hat on Nov. 10,
1856. Stephen A. Douglas decided ten
acres of land to the trustees to be de.
voted to educational purposes, that in this
deed it was stipulated that there must be
no sale nor alienation of the property, and
that it was the intention Of Nh. Douglass
that only educational interests should be
benefited by his gift. On the ground
that the property seems likely to be di-
verted from this use, the petitioners urge
that in default of carrying out Stephen
A. Douglass wishes in regard to the

LONDON, May THE Times. com
menting on the attitude of the Conserva-
tives toward the government respecting
the Afghan question, characterizes the
conduct of the Tory leaders as unwise.
1t says that Lord Randolph Churchill is
not justified in proposing to refuse sup
plies to the government, The approach
ing eleretion will give the Conservatives
ample opportunity to arraign the govern
ment before the bar of public opinion.
The Times argues hat the Conservative
party would be much stronger if it alb
stained from crude and extrayagant pro-
posals that the government has mis-
managed the Afghan business. The
article concludes by giving advice which
shows that the opposition is incapable of
doing better.

BALTIMORE, May THE parade ar
ranged in honor of the visiting Army of
the Potomac was quae a success, despite
the heavy rain which fell all morning and
up to the hour announced for the starting
of the march. Many expected organiza-
tons did not put in an appearance, as an
order was issued early in the day post
poning the display, but before 3 o'clock
the rain stopped, and such a number had
gathered at the rendezvous that permits
zion to start was given andit is estimated
that fully 5000 were in line. The route
Of procession was through the principal
streets and every sidewalk was lined with
lockers on. Stands had been erected at
various points and all were crowded. The
mayor, in company with many of the vis-
iting veterans, and Governor Lloyd and
staff, occupied the portico Of the city hall
and reviewed the parade in passing.
The reunion of the society of the Army
Of the Potomac closed tonight with a
banquet. After the cloth had been re-
moved, Gen. Hunt, presiding, proposed
the toasts. In response to The Presi-
dent of the United States" a telegram
was read from Secretary Lamont, stating
that owing to a business engagement,
President Cleveland was unable to at
tend, much to his regret.

ping.

SPRINGFIELD, May THE latest ad-
vices from three counties in the southern
portion of the state contained in the legis-
lative district represented by Mr.. Shaw,
Democrat, recently deceased, have re-
turned a Republican successor. The dis
trict was counted for a 1000 Democratic
majority, but it is claimed that the
Democrats were lulled by the apparent
~inaction of the Republicans, aud the
latter crowded to the polls in the after
noon and carried the election. If this is
the case, the Republicans will have a
clear majority on a joint ballot.
