ny Two New Discoveries by DIR. Koch

Diseases.
Sir Joseph Lister in q speech at
Kings College, London, on his return
from Berlin, announced that within a
month the world would be startled by two
new discoveries. He said chat DIR. Koch's
transcendingly importamt consumption
cure limited at and Involved the cure
and prevention of two of the most ter.
rible contagious diseases known. Sir
Joseph Lister had witnessed expert
ments on guinea pigs in which they
were inoculated with new, simple
chemical substance. which any one
would be able to prepare and were to-
tally unaffected when germs of these
diseases were injected. DIR. Koch had
practically concluded this work of dis
covery, but desired to make farther tests.
Therefore he desired to keep his latestdis
covery secret for the present Sir Joseph
Lister said be was convinced that this
discovery was the most important in the
history of medicine since that of Vao-
cine. DIR. Dixon, of Philadelphia, after
making an examination of DIR. Koch's s
consumption cure, has relinquished his
claim to priority Of discovery.

BRAIN SURGERY.

Remarkable Operation Performed on q
Child by n Chicago Surgeon.
A patient will leave the County Hos
pital at Chicago, in few days who has
undergone one Of the most remarkable
Gases Of brain amputation that has ever
taken place in Chicago Last August
four-year-old Mamie Brown was admit
ted to the hospital suffering from frao-
turc Of the skull, the entire left
side Of her head had been
crushed in by the kick OF q horse.
A trepanning operation was performed.
No i'll effects were noticed for several
days, when q curious growth was OBJ
served on the head above and behind
the right ear. A close investigation
showed that the dura mater, or tough
membrane, covering the brain, had been
fractured, and the brain wns forcing it's
way through the aperture and out
through the fractured skull. There was
q hole in the head as large as silver
half dollar. Tho brain continued to pro-
trude, forming what was called hernia
OF the brain. Enough forced its way out
to form lump larger than walnut. 1t
was then that an operation was decided
on. 1t was seen that an attempt to re-
place the brain would be useless, and it
was decided to remove II. The opera
ton was in every way successful. Lit
tie Mamie rallied from the operation,
and was soon able to be running around
the wards Sho has lost none of her
faculties, and seems to be as bright as
any four-year-old girl should be.

IMPORTANT DISCOVERY.

The Thorough Fusing OF Steel and Nick.
el Demonstratod-ItsB Bearing on Armor.
Thos. Harrington, of Allegheny, Pa,
has successfully demonstrated the posi-.
bility Of thoroughly fusing steel and
nickel. He cast an ingot from pot
charged for spring steel, have added
about three per cent. of nickel
and a certain 1ux. A piece ten
inches long was tested, and showed
tensile strength of 1851, $50 pounds,
and an elogation in two inches Of two
and one-half per cent. The result is
most significant with regard to the fu-
ture composition Of naval armor plate
Harrington says that he can make tho
plates with nickel and steel so strong
that one-half Che weight will be saved.
He can treat open hearth steel as easily
as crucible without at all changing the
chemical constituents of the mixture.

straighten matters out When they
failed, he gave Mrs. Sartoris London

place about Hampton and settled on her
an income of e7,500 per annum. He
gives similar income to his son on the
condition that he shall live separately
from his wife and see her and their chill
