many regarding the efficiency of Koch's
remedy. They also claim that the stock
of lymph is being exhausted. The
Tageblatt says that Koch's procedure so
far is open to severe criticism, because
he has only given his lymph to a few
cO-labOrators, whom he could thorough
ly trust to follow his instructions, while
the great scientific establishments and
hospitals are excluded from the
benefits of the discovery. Tho Tage-
blatt considers that the dissatisfaction
among medical men and the many pa
tients who arc anxious to submit to the
treatment is quite justified, and declares
that the present arrangements must be
altered. Tho demand for the Koch
syringes is so great that the manufacture
ers are unable to fill all their orders. Herr
Steiner, the celebrated tenor of Fried
rich Wilhelm's Theater, who is suffering
from lupus of the face, was introduced
at a meeting of the Medical So
ciety, twelve hours after receiving an
injection of the Koch fluid. As a re-
ward for his services in the interests Of
medical science the Emperor viii prob
ably confer the title of nobility upon
Prof. Koch. The Professor states that
the Government must prepare the
lymph used in the cure of tuberculosis.

THEY TAKE THE PRIZE.

Two of the CIeverest swindIers On Earth
Operate in Baltimore.
Two clever swindlers have success
fully worked six of the largest notion
houses in Baltimore out Of about 81. 500.
They began operations several days ago
and got away with the money before
their trick was discovered. One of the
pair, a slender fellow with a moustache,
and about "a years Of age, managed the
job. lie would call at a large house and
notify a member of the firm that he had
been sent by Hurst, PuTnell & Co. to Sc
lect some gloves. After making a choice
he left. Immediately after his confed-
crate, a chunky fellow, well dressed,
would appear on the scene with an
order for from fifty to seventy-fve dozen
pairs Of the gloves and directing the
firm to charge to Hurst, Purnell &
Co.'S account. The goods were always
delivered and the swindlers made neat
sum. In one instance they obtained in
this way fifty dozen pairs at S. and sold
them to another firm which had been
victimized on the day previous, but had
not discovered the sWindle, at reduc-
ton of s., and got the cash, too. The
police are looking for the pair, but they
are probably operating in some other
city by this time.

Ce1as Train Robbers Run Against an
Armed Guard and their Plans Frus-
trated.
The oast-bound Texas and Pacific
train which left e Paso, Tex, Monday
afternoon was held up by four mon just
On entering the station of Kent, Tex.
One Of the robbers named Smith con-
fessed to the station agent at Kent, and
a number Of guards we're placed on the
train. The plan was that Immediately
after leaving Kent, Smith was to 60 into
the baggage car, kill the engineer and
fireman if they refused to do his bid
ding, and at the same time his
cOnfederates were to attack the
passengers, and, if necessary, kill
the conductor. However, the guards
were ready for the robbers. At the
first symptoms of disturbance they
opened fire, and in all about forty shots
were exchanged, and, as far as can be
learned. one of the guards and two of
the robbers were wounded. Upon see
ing this resistance the robbers jumped
from the train, which had come to a
standstill, and escaped under cover of
darkness. Smith is at Foyah now and
denies that his confederates we're ranch
ers in the Rio Grande valley. He says
he is in fear of his life, and that he
knows he will be killed if his former
confederates ever can get hold of him.

KOCHS CURE.

Explained.

The Process of the Lymph's Preparation
Explained.
The Frank Courier, of Berlin. states
that the lymph used by Prof. Koch for
the cure of tuberculosis is prepared in an
incubating stove, within space that is
Theoretically sealed and sterilized and
thereby rendered free from fungus. Tho
interior of the alright space is divided
by an unglazed porcelain diaphragm in
to an Upper and lower section In the
upper section is placed a sailed meat
broth in gelatinous state containing
colonies of the tubercule germ. This
mass gradually liquifies and the gela-
tine liquid drops slowly through the
porcelain plate into the lower section.
The liquid then contains all the secre-
tory products, but is free from all living
or dead germs or reproductive Spores
and is the lymph as used.
