A Michigan avenue car stopped al
Second street yesterday to permit q
young lady and a gentleman to get on.
As the former. who was young as well
as pretty. passed forward to accept Q
seat offered her, she tripped over the
outstretcl,ed foot of an individual whc
was sitting at the rear of the car.
In an instant she was almost at full
length in the bottom of the car. Theexcla-
nations of the passengers and the black
looks they directed at the extended stun.
bling block should have caused its owner
to sink through the seat. Quicker al.
most than she went down. however, she
was on her feet again, and gracefully
acknowledging the courtesy of the gen.
,lenan who surrendered his seat
She was greatly embarrassed. and he,
escort looked like a thunder cloud and as
if he would like to punch the head of the
fellow who had caused all the trouble.
But he didn't. He contented himself
with occasionally stepping vigorously on
the still extended and offending foot.
There did not seem to be the least Sign
of consciousness from its owner. while
the passengers awaited the denouement
Finally. with lurch from the car as IN
excuse. the foot received another fero-
cious dig that was so pronounced as tc
almost twist the man out of the seat.
Thinking that perhaps he had really in
jured the man, the escort muttered an
excuse that was received in great equar
nimity. with the gratifying explanation:

An Experiment IL Convict Treatment.
The physical discipline to which they
were subjected consisted in ~ hot baths
three weekly. the Turkish and common
bath alternating; (9 massage -kneading
of the muscles, passive motions of the
joints, and friction of the entire surface;
@ physical exercise-manual drill, free
gymnastics and exercise with dumb bells
ranging progressively from three to eight
pounds in weight; az the substitution of a
special dietary for the regular prison fare.
The experiment was continued during
five months-long enough to demonstrate
the value Of the method, but not to de-
termine the full measure of success prob
ably attainable by these means. At the
end Of this period. nine Of the eleven
men then living had risen from the third
or refractory to the intermediate grade,
the remaining two having merely MAIN
tanned their original standing in this
grade.
During the six months immediately
preceding the experiment, the average
marking for shop work. school work and
conduct had been 46 per cent. During
the experiment, the average for school
work, previously lowest of all, rose to "a
per cent, the conduct improving at
about equal rate Shop work was dis
continued, as tho special training was
thought to secure enough muscular ex-

the term Of the experiment, the average
marking Of the men in the three depart

conduct rose to II per cent. as compared
with 40 per cent for the six months pre-
ceding the experiment At the end of
this period Dr.. Wey reported that ''al-

In 1885 one Of the well known kshfs
Of English modern surgery began max
ing experiments, looking to the ultimate
invention of q splint that would hold the

neck could no longer be used for that
purpose on account of fracture. In tie
course Of his experiments he tried pow
dered egg shells and plaster OF Paris in

sizes of the human neck rendered this
apparatus almost useless
A few years later, probably about
1642, an eminent New York surgeon
tried tie virtues Of closely woven cloth

and whites Of eggs
