Dr. J. NJ. Edmunds, in a dental monthly, advocates the implanting of etallic roots in the jaw and the building of artificial teeth upon them. He believes that this method opens new possibilities for dentistry. By planting two metallic capsuls iu the rear jaw and two in the forward portion, he thinks it practical to lay foundation for complete set of permanent teeth.

Exeriments with a new explosive in Eng land are interesting. It possesses under or dinary circumstances striking disinelination to explode. Hammer it, it is as harmless as clay. Put it in the fire, it shoulders dully. Apply friction, it is unresponsive. Shock it with an electric spark or even lightning bolt, it is as harmless as a brickbat. Put 8 mass of it on pile of gunpowder and ignite the latter, it is hurled to one side unexploded. In brief, it may be handled and transported as safely as so much sand. But apply de- tonating cap properly and it explodes with terrific force, far greater and more destructive than that of dynamite, giving off no smoke, no flame and no noxieus fumes.

Among the letters of coincidence which the Emperor Francis Joseph received on the death of his son was one signed by "the Mother of Oberdank," In 1882 Oberdank was arrested for having a shell in his posses sion when the Emperor visited Trieste. He was tried and condemned to death. His mother sent an appeal to the Emperor for his pardon. So did Victor Hugo. His majesty refused the pardon and Oberdank was exc cuted. Unhappy father" says the mother in her letter to the Emperor, ''I regret that on account of the tragic death of your only son you are compelled to feel the same bangs that 1, poor abandoned mother, felt on the morning of the 2Oth of December, 1882"

ment, and his name was placed on the retired
list of the army as surgeon general and brig
adler general, with the original date Of April
25, 1852.
He has been an indefatisable worker in
his profession as a medical and surgical
writer and in the journalistic and literary
fields Some of his novels have reached
several editions. His son, Braeme Ham,
mond, is New York surgeon, and his
daughter Clara married the Marquis Man
fredi LAMA di Mercato Banco, an Italian.
The experiments made upon himself by DR..
Hammond with the Brown-Sequard elixir
are only in the line Of what has been his usual
practice While he was in New York he ex-
permented on himself with cocaine, the
newspapers publishing accounts thereof
under the head Of "On Spree for Science"
The information gained was very valuable.
DR.. Sayre is native Of Bottle Hill, now
Madison, N. j., where he was born Feb 90,
1890. He was graduated from Pennsylvania
university, Ky, in 1888, and the College of
Physicians and Surgeons in 1912. He was
shortly given the office of prosecutor 10 DR..
Willard Parker professor Of surgery i'll that
institution, which he held for ten years.
In 1868 he was made surgeon to Bellevue
hospital, New York, and since that time
has held several similar offices in other nsti-
tutions In and about New York city. In
1873 he became consulting surgeon at Belle
vue DR.. Sayre was one of the first to advo-
cate clinical practice in medical colleges and
was among those who helped along the estab-
lishment Of the Bellevue Hospital Medical
college in 1861. When its faculty was formed
he became professor Of orthopedic surgery
and fractures and luxations, and later of
clinical surgery, which chair he still holds
From 1860 to 1866 he was resident physician
of the city of New York, in 1915 he was
delegate to the International Medical con-
gress that convened in Philadelphia, and In
1877 was delegate from the American Medi-
cal association to the British Medical associa-
ton. He has served in similar capacity at
several succeeding meetings of the same sort,
in many cases being called upon to demon
strate before those present difficult treatment
of different sorts. His surgical inventions
are many and useful. In 1873 he was made
a knight Of the Order of Wasa by Charles
XIV, king Of Sweden and Norway, and is
member Of many medical bodies in America
and elsewhere.
He is vouminous writer, but his works
have been confined to surgery. In the recent
discussion of the Brown-Sequard elixir, in
which he held DR.. Hammond up to ridicule
for his experiments, he proved himself an
extremely vigorous if not an elegant aud
temperate master of English.

like results, and the stoning did not cease un'
til Ell 900 damage had been done to the
fronts of the fashionable West End.
Burns, Williams, Champion and Hyndman
were arrested on the following day, charged
with seditious conspiracy. The trial did not
take place until in April, 5th-lOth, when 1t
was heard at the central criminal sessions Ill
the Old Bailey before Mr.. Justice Cave.
Strong speeches were made at the trial by
Burns and Hyndman, In which they ar
raigned the social system OF Great Britain,
q and charged that the then demoralized con-
dition of affairs was due to the Indifference
and recklessness Of the aristocratic govern
ment. The defense consisted of testimony,
the chief witness being Superintendent Dun
lap, showing that the accused had used every
effort to check riotous demonstration on Feb.
8, and then had it not been for the influence
of the defendants the damage would have
been much greater and probably arson and
murder have been the result. The accused
were all discharged.
1t will be remembered that Sir Edmund
Henderson was forced to resign from the
head Of the London police department short
ly after the Trafalgar Square meeting of
Feb. s. 1t was shown in the official inquiry
that followed the troubles Of that day that
the rioting was due to the fact that there
were no police to restrain the mob between
Trafalgar square and Hyde park, Burns did
not seem to be frightened by his arrest, for
he continued to agitate in England and Scot
land as an apostle of the Democratic Fedora
ton, and was not again interfered with by
the authorities.
From the tone of the dispatches and the
English journals it appears that the people
of London look upon him as an agitator
along peaceable or legislative lines, as he
claimed in his trial In 1886 and still claims he
is. The reports state that his efforts have
been directed toward keeping down rioting
in the dockmens strike, and the professions
Of 10000 strikers which he has led through
the streets Of London during the past few
weeks have been perfectly orderly; yet he
has unfinchingly stood for the demands made
by the strikers, and leaves no stone unturned
to secure what they claim.

Sketches OF the Men Who Have been

who have been airing one another's private
records because OF disagreement as 10 the adj
visibility OF making experiments with DR.,
-Sequard's alleged elixir, are both old
enough to know better than TO make such an
exhibition as they have Of themselves.
DR.. Hammond was born at Annapolis,
Nd, Aug. IS, lS2s; is feet 9 in height, and
still carries himself erect. He was gradu-
ated from the medical department OF the
University of New York, and entered the
United States army in iSI9 as assistant sur
geon, with the rank of first lieutenant. In
October 1860, he resigned, to become PROBES
sor of anatomy and physiology in the Uni
versity Of Maryland, but when the civii war
broke out he again entered the army and
rose, step by step, to be surgeon general In
April, 1862. He instituted radical changes,
but suffered from charges of irregularity in
awarding certain liquor contracts, Then
came trouble, and his dismissal as surgeon
general, after a court martial, by Secretary
Stanton This was in 1864, and the young
surgeon had but about $500 in the world.
He determined to leave Washington and
settle in New York, and when he did so made
a VOW that he would return to the capital
in twenty -fve years reinstated and cleared
OF all suspicion.
His reinstatement took place in 1879, but
he was not yet ready to return TO Washing
ton, and in fact did not go back till 1883,
when he established himself at Washington
at the head of a large private institution for
the treatment of the disorders he had made
speciality. He had by that time accumulated
very comfortable competence, and had
won name second to none in the ranks OF
his profession. During the early days OF his
residence in New York he was often in straits
financially, but he struggled manfully with
adversely, making nervous diseases his
speciality and eking out his slender income
with his ready pen. Quite early in his New
York career he was made lecturer on nervous
diseases at the New York College Of Physi-
clans and Surgeons. In 1878 he set about
the vndicaton of his character, bill being
introduced in congress authorizing the presi-
dent to review the court martial by which
he was displaced The result was reinstate-

THE BIG LONDON STRIKE.
POINTS ABOUT JOHN BURNS, THE
MAN WITH THE RED FLAG"

He Is the Leader Of the Present Move-
ment, and He Has Record AS An Agi-
tator That J.. Well Worth Thoughtful
Consideration.
John Burns, leader of the great London
dockmen's strike, is a Scotchman by birth,
and is only 80 years of age, He is ma
chinist engineer by trade, and was employed
by one of the dock companies prior TO the be-
ginning Of the strike. Burns is large and
well proportioned man and has remarkably
strong voice, especially adapted to out door
speaking He has for years been identified
with the labor movement in England as an
active member Of the trade union Of his
craft, and during the past four years as
leader and orator in the Democratic Fedora
ton. the formidable Socialistic organization
Of Great Britain, of which William Morris,
the poet; H. NJ Hyndman, writer on eco
Monies, and DR.. Edward Aveling are promi-
nent members
In the elections Of November, 1885, Burns
stood as parliamentary candidate for the
western division of Nottingham, but was
defeated He was not generally known,
however, and recognized as public
character by the press Of London prior
to the Trafalgar square and Hyde
park meetings of unemployed workingmen
which took place early in 1885 He was
chairman OF the meeting held in Trafalgar
square on Feb. of that year. Over 10000
persons were present, and addresses were
made by H. f. Champion, II. NJ. Hyndman
John E. Williams Burns and others, OF the
Democratic federation. A large force Of
policemen, under charge Of Superintendent
Dunlap, were in attendance, but the crowd
was orderly and the meeting was not inter
fered with.
Near the close Of the speaking gang Of
roughs attempted to create disturbance,
and Burns, after consulting with Superin.
tendent Dunlap, adjourned the meeting to
Hyde park, he and Champion marching at
the head of the monster procession that head
ed for that place. Everything went smoothly
until the procession was passing the Carlton
club in the West End, The windows of the
club house were filed with men, who very
