upon the true woihsh OF Rntry.
It's .trite, but true sayi to hand that
rocks the cradle rules the IL And not
only is the destiny of n nation and State
shaped by the influence of woman, but every
organization that is set on foot for the welfare
of any class of people depends for its success
upon the fostering care of good women.
Lady members in our Alliances would ex-
ert an influence for good, both morally and
socially. Their presence would tend to elc-
vatc our order to higher degree Of re6no-
mcnt and social entertainment. They would
inspire the male members with degree
of pure patriotism so essential to the best in
forests of our noble order. Let us encour-
age them to grace the regular meetings Of
our Alliances by their attendance. Let us
invite them to participate in all matters that
is tending to the advancement of our cause.
They can always be relied upon to add great
moral strength to any and all such move
mcnts and they will be the means by which
the interest in our meetings will always be
sufficient to insure large attendance on the
part of the male members.
Therefore, brethren, l would recommend
and earnestly suggest that each Alliance
would provide more efficient means for the
encouragement and entertainment Of true
women members, to the end that our meet
ings may be cblessed with their presence.

"A DESPERATE REMEDY.
Relays of Medical students use Their
Muscles to save a Mans Life.

Relays of Medical students use Their
Muscles to save a Mans Life.
From the Philadelphia Press.l
Relays of medical students are working to
save the life of a patient in the University
Hospital simply by keeping constant, un-
wavering pressure on she principle artery in
his leg. The patient is E. J. Dolan, and his
case is the second known to science. :. It islam
aneurism of the palpiteal space--a point just
behind the knee cap, and an aneurism is a
point in an artery where the walls are so
weakened that it may break and let the pa
tent bleed to death.
The patient had suffered the most excruci-
ating pain. The pulses of his leg shook the
whole member. He could not sleep, he vast
away, and his case was regarded desperate
when he was brought to the hospital last Sat-
urday. Visiting Surgeon Ashhurst laid out
as the line of treatment the forming of a elot
in the artery, which was to be done by re-
tarding the fow of blood by pressure on the
artery. There were not enough nurses to do
this, go volunteers were called for from the
medical students. Each was assigned for
fifteen minutes duty at the pressure. Some
of the volunteers can endure the labor longer,
some not so long, for though it may seem
easy it is hard work. The patient cries out
with agony If the slightest variation of the
pressure is allowed, and fifteen minutes of
the tense strain Of not moving muscle un-
necessarily is exhausting.
Through the use of opiates the patient last
night got the frst sleep of two hours togeth-
er he has had in long time. The pain had
materially subsidized, and he is regarded as
in fair wsy Of recovery. The last stu
dent goes off duty at 5 o'clock this after
noon, and other treatment will follow the
pressure.
The only similar case was treated In the
German Hospital in this city.

A NOTABLE WILL CASE.

a NOIAHEk WILL CASEs
A decision of the New York court Of ap-
peals in will case Is attracting some atten-
ton. About the year 1880 Francis Palmer,
a farmer somewhat advanced in years, made
a will by which he gave his estate, subject to
certain charges, to his grandson, Elmer
Palmer. This Elmer was boy about four
teen years of age, who seems to have been q
favorite with his grandfather, living with
him and being aware of the provisions of his
will. The elder Palmer proceeded, being a
widower, to involve himself anew In the tolls
of matrimony, and, as might have been sx-
peeted, began to talk Of making another will.
His grandson, who had by this time reached
the age Of sixteen years, was distressed at
this untoward change in his prospects, and
prevented all further change by administer
ing to his grandfather dose Of poison. A
jury found that this act was murder only In
the second degree, and Elner was committed
to the Elnaira Rsformatory, and in due time
proceeded to claim his grandfather's estate
under his will. The lower courts, being un-
able to find any authority for altering the
will Of the testator, felt compelled to grant
this request. The majority of the court Of
appeals, however, decided that murder could
not be encouraged in this fashion. They
hold that the principle that no one shall be
permitted to take advantage of his own
wrong is sufficient to exclude those who
murder tsstators or ancestors from claiming
under their wills or ~ their heirs. They are
not able to cite any case in support Of this
opinion except one from hsUnited States Su-
preme court, which goes far to support their
decision. In that case person procured In
suranee upon the life of another, and then
murdered him. The court held that to allow
recovery on the policy would be like allow
ing man to get the insurance upon build
ing that he had set ON fire.

says the Lancet. Paris journals found the
news in German newspapers. and fell foul Of
the French government for giving a Prus-
sian the rank and uniform of French off,
Ger. Some went 20 far a. to hint that the
German professor might easily be spy, who
wished to go to Tonkin, under the pretext Of
scientific pursuits, in order to survey the
land-perhapa sven to make preparations for
its conquest by Germany. These utterances
caused suoh eommotion among . number of
naval oficsrs aad medical men that they ad-
dressed an indignant protest to the admiral
ty, declaring that they would not receive
Prussisn a. oomrade. These eircum-
stances induced the French government to
cancel the appointment, and Professor Loe-
wenthal was officially informed of its de-
eision, with the remark that "under existing
circumstances his position in TonkiR would
have been untenable." Meanwhile, however,
the attention of the Argentine government
had been called to Professor Loewenthsl, aud
it invited him to go to La Plata, to make a
journey of Investigation through that eoun-
try, and report its results to the minister of
foreign affairs in Busnos AYres. He has &C.

WRECK OF THE IDAHO.
A Puget Sound Steamship Lost in a
Fog,

A Puget Sound Steamship Lost in a
Fog.
PoRT TOWNSEND, November 29th.-The
steamship Idaho, owned by the Pacific
Coast Steamship Company, has been
wrecked on the rocks near Vancouver
Island.
The Idaho was leased by the Oregon
Railway and Navigation Company some
time ago, and has been plying between
Puget Sound points and Portland.
The revenue cutter Walcott left this after
noon for the scene of the wreck The
Idaho left here at 8 o'clock this morning
for Portland with a cargo of freight
The heavy fog that prevailed in the straits
is supposed to be the cause of her wreck.
The Idaho was in command of Captain L..
Angerstein. No further particulars are OBJ
tainable at present.
VICTORIA (B. C), November 29th.-At
the time the Idaho struck, the fog.horn,
which had been going at Rabe Rocks light
house, ceased. The ship was going at a
slow rate of speed, but struck with ter
rife crash, tearing large rent in her side
on jagged rock off the Rosedale Reef
The ship commenced to fill and great
danger was expected, as the steamer was
partly loaded with lime. Orders were
nearly all heaved overheard and the pumps
started, but they were unable to keep the
ship ahoat.
The tug Lorne arrived here this evening.
Ter Captain reports that the Idano's back
is broken and the ship filed with water.
The ship was valued at 5000, and is in
sured.
Part of the cargo consisted of hops. 1t
is supposed the ship will be total loss.
The crew was saved.

A Strange Letter Left by Suicide
Sudden Death

Sudden Death.
SEATTLE, November 29th.-Mrs. L. V.
Rothenbethel was found dead in the Me-
chanics' Lodging-house this morning She
had taken morphine and died during the
night.
1t seems the woman was so very Jealous
of her husband, Paul Rothenbethel. a
steamer steward that he could not live
with her. They had row on the previous
evening, and he left her, as he did on divers
occasion, during their eight years of mar
ried life
A remarkable feature of the suicide was
the letter addressed to the Chief of Police,
which accuses her husband of numerous
crimes. She alleges he set fire TO her house
in Salem, Oregon, several years since, to
secure the insurance. Murder is also men,
toned among his misdeeds, but whom he
killed she does not state.
She says that he was engaged to poor
girl in Germany, who drowned herself be-
cause he proved unfaithful. She says he
spent five thousand dollars of her money,
and had been guilty of inhdelity. In con-
clusion she says addressing her husband ::
"As sure as there is such thing as spirits,
you can expect me 70 visit you every night,
for l will make you suffer something what
have suffered for you, perhaps more.
Still would loves and forgive, if you would
treat me good. Good-by, darling"
The body of Luke Lavegue, farm la
borer, was found in the bay to-day. He
had been missing for two weeks. He had
$3.50 when he disappeared, and only 81 so
when found. Foul play is suspected
