VIII Meet to c nsider 1t.

There will probably be meeting of the
Republican County Committee tomorrow
evening to consider the action of the Ex-
ecutive Committee in recommending that
representation be given the opposing fac
tiun at the primaries. 1t is likely that
there will be some opposition to the adop-
ton Of the report when ii is handed in, as
there is an element in the County Commit
tee who will combat any attempt at a COM
promise. In spite of this feeling, however,
there IS every reason to believe that nOmi-
naLlE the concession will be granted.

Extract from a strange manuscripts

to have been written by man named
Mark, but believed by our richest schol-
ars, on account of the general air of i'm
probability and the absurdly Impractical
BILE and preposterous teachings enunci-
ated therein, to be the cunning inven-
ton of Satirist.)
"And Jesus sat over against the treas
ury, and behold how the people cast
money into the treasury; and many that
were rich cast in much. And there came
a certain poor widow, and she threw in
two mites, which make farthing. And
he called unto Him His disciples, and
saith unto them: Verify say unto you,
that this poor widow hath cast more in
than all they which have cast into the
treasury. For all they did cast in of
their abundance; but she of her want
did cast in all that she had, even all her
living. '"-Brooklyn Eagle.

DEATH IN cHLOROFoRM.
The Most Dangerous An@sthetic Now
Employed by Medical Men.

Employed by Medical Men.
A contributor to the London Lancet
states that in the medical journals for
the last ten years there are reported 12O
Gf not more) cases of death under
chloroform. Many of these are very i'm
perfectly described, but in at least forty
nine cases the patients were in good
general health at the time of admins
tration, and required an an8sthetlc
minor operation; e. g., extraction OF
teeth eleven cases of death), reduction
of dislocations mine cases., eye opera
tions, fistul8 and so on. In some fifty
nine cases death occurred before the
commencement of the operation, and SO
was clearly due to the chlorOfOrm alone.
In about twenty of the cases 1t is noted
that chlorOfOrm had been successfully
given on previous occasions, in one az
many as eight different times before the
fatal administration. 1t is evident from
the foregoing that chlOrOfOrm Is uncer-
tain in its action; that not only do pee
ole die while under chlOrOfOrm, but
also from it; frequently, too, even
when it is used by skillful hands.
Of course, it is possible to retort that
it was not properly given" which may
be correct. This will not alter the faci
that these accidents prove chloroform
to be a powerful agent, very difficult tf
administer properly; indeed, so difficult
and dangerous that it is scarcely suiGa-
bic for routine an8sthetic, when a
drug less powerful for evil can replace it.
The nauseouS flavor and the sense of
lone away with by the use of nitrous
oxide, and it's inhalation made more
agreeable than even that of chlOrOfOrm,
while the patient quickly becomes un
conscious without the struggling so COM
non with chlorOfOrm. The writer goes
IN to say: Il have not yet found a sim
gle patient who has once inhaled ether
preceded by nitrous oxide complain of
sutfOcation, or object to take it again on
the ground of its unpleasantnesss.
THE readiness with which chlOrOfOrm
affects the heart, the smallness of ia
tal dose, and especially the ease and
suddenness with which such dose can
ne inhaled, almost by a couple of deep
inspirations, will make it's safe exhibit
ton always difficult task to invariably
accomplish. Having had many years
experience, l have gradually come to
believe chloform to be less safe an@s-

A STUPENDOUS WORK.

The New CrOtOn Aqueduct at New York
and Other Great Tunnels.
Compared with other tunnels, the new
aqueduct is easily at the head of all
works of like character in the world.
The cities of Chicago and Cleveland are
each supplied with water through tun-
nels extending out into a lake. The
first Chicago tunnel is feet in diameter
and 10,567 feet long. The second tun-
mel is feet in diameter and 81, 400 feet
long. The Cleveland tunnel is only s
feet in diameter and 6,661 feet long. All
OF these tunnels were laid in compare
lively soft materials. The Baltimore
water supply includes rock tunnel,
twelve feet in diameter and seven miles
long, and is lined with brick-work for
about two miles. The old Roman aoue-
ducts were several of them longer than
the Croton Aqueduct, but they were all
very small, and were merely masonry
conduits few feet in diameter. The
Liverpool water supply is conveyed by
an aQueduct about twice as long
as the Croton Aqueduct, but it is mainly
surface aqueduct, there being only a
little tunnel-work. A portion of the
aqueduct is mainly pipe line. The
supply is from a reservoir formed. like
that at Croton or at Sodom, by building
dam across narrow gorge in a valley
among the mountains in Wales The
dam is larger than that at Sodom, being
1876 feet high. while that at Sodom is
only rs feet. Compared with the pro-
posed dam it will be small, as the new
dam is to be over two hundred feet high.
and will be the highest dam in the
world. The aqueduct tunnel, when
compared with railroad tunnels, is a
little smaller in diameter than the
three most famous tunnels, but is very
much longer. The Hoosac Tunnel Is
only $4,000 feet long, the Mont Cents is
miles long, and the st. Gothard OK
miles long, while the new Croton Aque-
duct, as we have seen, is nearly 80 miles
long.-Charles Barnard, in Century.
