The Hearts Mechanism.

In the human subject the average
rapidity of the cardiac pulsation for an
adult male is about 20 beats per min
ute. These beats are more frequent
as rule, in young children and in
women, and there are variations with
in certain limits in particular persons.
owing to peculiarit es of organization.
1t would not necessarily be On abnor-
NAL sign to find in some particular in
dividuals the habitual frequency of the
hearts action from so TO SO. or from IS
to so a minute. As rule. the hearts
action is slower and more powerful in
July develope j and muscular organiza-
lions, and more rapid and feebler in
those of sligher form. In animals, the
range is from 25 to As in the cold blood
ed, and so upward in the warm-blood-
ed animals. except in the case of the
horse, which has very slow heart
beat only 40 strokes q minute. The
pulsations of men and all ANNALS diff
fer with the sea level also. The work
of a healthy human heart has been
shown to equal the feat of raising 5
tons 4 cwt. one foot per hour, or 125
in twenty-four hours. The excess of
his work under alcohol in varying
qualities is often very great. A cur
| ious calculation has been made by DIR.
Richardson giving the work of the
heart in mileage. Presuming that the
blood was thrown out of the heart al
each pulsation in The proportion Of
sixty-nine strokes per minute, and al
the assumed force of nine feet the mile
age of blood through the body might
be taken as 217 yards per minute, sew
en- M les per hour, 1853 miles per day
81, $50 miles per year, or $3.50, SSl
miles in lifetime of 81 years. Thu
number of the beats of the heart in the
same long life would reach the gran'
total of 2,S69, 776. 900.

WASHINGTON, April 1l.-[Special TO

searching for absent members, from 6

was dreary lot Of men on the floor OF

the desks OF members were strewn
with letters and documents, and
everybody was worn out De-

however, and each individual member
declared that he was ready to continue
the light until the end of his term rather
than succumb to defeat. So deter

little iesting and but few visits were paid
from one side Of the house to the other.

THE SIOUX DISSERTATION BILL.

Washington dispatch: The confer
ence committee has agreed upon the
senate amendments to the bill opening
the Sioux reservation in Dakota to set
Element, and that measure, which has
been pending before congress so long,
will go to the president for his sigma
ture as soon as the conference report
can be acted upon. The bill reserves
portions of the reservation as it now ex-
lists for the Indians belonging to the
Pine Ridge, Rosebud, Standing Rock,
Cheyenne River, Lower Brule, Crow
Creek and other agencies. Each mem
/ Der of the Santee and Flandrau tribes
| is allowed an allotment of quarter sec
! ton, and lands that have been already
sold by the Indians to the st. Paul and
| Dakota Central railways are confirmed
| to those companies. The remainder of
the reservation has been opened to set
| Element under the present land laws,
and the proceeds are to be held by the
government as permanent fund for the
education and civilization of the Indians.
Any Indian who desires to disconnect
himself from the tribe and tribe allot-
ment of law, is to be provided with
two cows, a pair of oxen, pillow, wagon
and other agricultural implements, S2(
in cash and the necessary seed to plant
five acres of land. The reservation
open for settlement under the home
stead act is to be sold for so cents {
quarter section; tracts and townsites a
the rate of S1.25 an acre. American
island, in the Missouri river near Cham
berlain, is donated to the city of Cham
berlain, Farm island to the city o
Pierre, and Niobrara island to the cit,
of Niobrara, for park purposes, and any
Indian settlers upon these islands are L
be Unidentified for improvements they
have made. All persons who entered
the Grow and Winnebago reservation
under the proclamation of the presiden
in 1885 and located lands are to hav
the right to render their claims ant

Two sections of each township are re
served for public school purposes, an,
the act is not to go into effect until it

A DECISION HEGARDITG 0LE0MAss-
GARINE.

WASHINGTON, April 9.--The supreme
court of the United States to-day rem.
dered an opinion in case No. si4, Will
liam L. Powell plaintiff in error, vs. the
Commonwealth Of Pennsylvania, com.
monty known as the oleomargerine
case. II is brought up for review, o
Judgment of the supreme court of Penn
sylvania sustaining the validity of a
statute Of that commonwealth making ii
unlawful for any person to manufac-
ture, sell or offer for sale any
butter or cheese, or article designed
to take the place of these articles. the
production from a compound of other
than unauthorized milk or cream. The
plaintiff was convicted of violation OF
this statute and took an appeal, basing
it on the ground that the statute was in
violation of the fourteenth amendment
to the constitution, and that the article
was a new invention not deleterious to
the public health.
The court holds that it is entirely
within the police powers of the state to
protect the public health, and that the
questions whether the manufacture Of
oleomargarine is or may be conducted
in such way as to involve such danger
to the public health as to require the
suppression of the business rather than
| its regulation, are questions of fact and
public policy which belongs to the legis.
lative department to determine. If all
that can be said of this Legislation is
that it is unwise or unnecessary and op
pressive, the appeal is to the Legislature
or the ballot box, not to the Judiciary.
The court also says it cannot assent Il
the argument that if the opinion il
sustained that nothing stands in the way
of the destruction by the Legislative de
partment of the constitutional guaran
tees of liberty and property. In answer
to this argument it holds that thu
Judiciary department is bound not t.
give effect to statutory enactments tina
are plainly forbidden by the constitu
ton. The objection that the statute de
MES the equal protection of the laws j
also held to be untenable, for the reason
that the same penalties and burdens ar
imposed upon all persons engaged il
the same business. The judgment
affirmed The opinion is by Justic
Harlan, Justice Field dissenting.

mysterious Music in Kentucky.

A young lady who is a very fine vo-
calist was telling me an incident of an
annoying experience with tuneful
breastpin. Her attention was first di-
rected to the music in her ornament on
an occasion when she WINS particularly
anxious TO show the sweetness of her
voice. As she sang she became con-
scious of shrill, harsh and metallic
sound like loose wire of piano. She
stopped in the middle of the song and
asked if there was not something
wrong.
1t was readily seen that the piano
was all right and the only inference
left was that the discordant noise was
her own. She was deeply mortified,
and 1t was not till some time afterward,
and after several repetitions OF her
former experience, that she discovered
the source Of the sound-a loose orna-
ment of breastpin which she wore
close TO her throat The vibrations OF
her vocal chords were transmitted in
some way to this pin, thus setting ting
ornament in motion, which grated
against its setting and created q most
disagreeable noise, Louisville Posi-

CHIEF ARTHUR.
Back in Chioago. aud Announces That the
Position Is Unchanged.

Back iH Chicago, aud Announces That the
Position Is Unchanged.
CHICAGO, H., April 10.-Chief Arthur
has turned to the headquarters of the
striking Burlington engineers and fire
men. He arrived in this city this fore
noon from Cleveland, and went at once
into a conference with Chief Sargent and
Chairman Hoge. The arrival of Arthur
was an event of interest alike to the
strikers and the railroad officials, as 1t
was generally assumed that with his
presence the strike on the 20" would
enter upon a new phase. The consulta-
ton lasted long while, and during 1t
admittance was denied everybody,
After the conference Arthur said that
the attitude of the strikers was un-
| changed. They were confident the bur
| lington would not in five years obtain,
outside of the brotherhood, a full force
of men. He believed the Burlington
stockholders would ere long take hold Of
| the matter, and that settlement of the
strike would result.
Arthur was asked if there was any
truth in the report that the Knights O.
Labor and brotherhood have patched III
a peace and that the knights will ordeI
a general strike on the burlington road
He said if the knights are contemplating
any such action they have not INFORMED
him of it. As far as patching up peac,
is concerned, he said the brotherhoot
has been grossly misrepresented, but III
had set forth the true facts of the cast
to Mr.. Powderly, and there is now
better understanding between the or
carnations.
