GOATS, BLOOD TRAHsFUsIoN.

COATS BLOOD TRANSFUsION. Professor Bernheim Thinks 1t Bene- hcfal fin Early Stages of ConsumP- ton.
 PARIS, May 15.-Professor Bernheim has submitted his report to the Academy of Medicine regarding experiments made to cure tuberculosis by the transfusion of goats blood. The professor in this report says that fourteen patients have been treated by this system and that two of them in the last stage of anemia were cured. Ten of the remaining number, suffering from | tuberculosis, the report adds, have greatly improved under the new treatment, and the last two of fourteen patients, both of whom were in an advanced stage of consumption, died six weeks after re- ceiving the first transfusion of goats blood. Professor Bernheim declares that the goats blood treatment has an important effect in the first stages of consumption, but, he adds, 1t should not be used in the last stages.

A Visit by Masked Burglars.

CLEVELAND, May 15.-E. M. Mathews,
 superintendent of the United States EI- press company, was awakened early yes terday morning in his Prospect street house by feeling the muzzle of revol- yer pressed against the side of his head. He saw standing over him a masked man, who commanded him to get up and dress. He did as he was directed. Mean while two masked men had entered the rooms of his wife and son, Vincent s. Mathews. The son secured his own pistol, but before he could use it he was over powered, and after being securely bound hand and foot, was thrown on his bed. The burglars then ransacked the house, but failed to find many valuables. They compelled MT. Mathews to open his safe, at the point of the pistol, but it was empty

THE CRAZE FOR LAND.

The hardships and privations that
men endure while struggling for a
quarter section of land that each may
call his own, in the newly opened In
dian lands of the Territory, prove the
inbred desire of men for land, for
homes. The love of gold, riches, social
position, honor and fame are shared in
varying degrees by men of different
temperaments and habits of thought,
but the desire to have and to hold for
ever to ones heirs and assigns, a home,
be it ever so humble, is a desire that
fire will not burn out of the great ma
jority of the human race. Man is a
nomad only in the savage state. The
highest practical attainment OF civil
ization is the home, the charmed circle
towards which every homeless man
feels a yearning more or less strong.
Not all, of course, of those who
focked into the newly opened territory
were honest home-seekers. Many of
tuSm were eAlSNCo, Shol pCiSs oHSSpio
tors and the like who hoped to make
something out of the opportunities
meant for better men. Considering all
things, however, it is very doubtful if
the settler who succeeded in getting a
quarter section OF prairie for nothing
has done as well as he who goes into a
community more or less settled in
Texas, and buys a small farm on credit
even or partly SO. In the latter case
he has many advantages that are alb
sent in the former. 1t costs several
dollars an acre to put such improve
ments in aquarter section in the Terri
tory as will make it habitable. Then
the whole framework of social organi-
cation in the latter is wanting, and
nothing is as it should be. There is
bound to be an unusual amount OF hard
ship and suffering from the innumera-
BILE discomforts and inconveniencies
inseparable from the social chaos
Astounding. Only the hardest and
most shifty can endure it, while others
will be forced to the wall.

BOY MURDERER.
Ralph Ray. Who Murdered His Mother
in Colorado, Captured-His Story
of the Inhuman Crime.

DURANGO, COL, Sept. 2S-Ralph Ray,
twenty years old, murderer of his mother,
was captured Saturday evening in Canyon
Largo, N. NJ, by Sheriff Longenecker, and
returned to this city to-day. He made a
confession to the sheriff last night,
in which he gave the particulars
of the crime. He said that after he and his
mother had eaten breakfast last Wednes-
day morning he went to the barn and took
two drinks of whisky from bottles he had
hidden in the hay. Returning to the house, he
informed his mother that he was. going to
Pennington, N. NJ, to attend the fair.
Mrs. Ray demonstrated, not desiring
to be left alone. This angered him,
and as his mother passed him
for the door with a pan in her hand he
struck her a terrible blow on the back of
the head with Ratchet, sinking the
iron into her head to the handle. She
fell to the floor without moan. The
son then plunged his hunting
knife into her breast three times, wrapped
the body in quilt, mounted his horse and
started for Mexico. The father re-
turned from his mine that night
and the crime was diSeov-
cred sooner than young Ray had
expected, or he would have successfully
made mis- way across the border. The
murderer was arraigned this morning and
without tremor or the slightest indica-
ton of remorse pleaded guilty.
Mr.. Ray, the gray-haired father OF the
young murderer, has gone insane over the
terrible affair, and his life is despaired Of.

whose stock may at some time come
into the possession OF an alien and
thereby escheat the whole property to
the state.
We are urging that Texas shall be
made independent of the North. 1t is
said, and with truth and force, that the
Texas farmer labors for the enrich
ment of Northern manufacturers. The
machinery that cultivates his crops
comes from Northern mills. The
money that our cotton brings has wings
and flies to Nothern and Eastern CEN
tiers, leaving us as poor after our years
labor as before. Make our own tools,
implements of agriculture and wearing
apparel, and keep this money at home.
That is good advice. But to establish
manufacturing plants capital is needed.
We lack the money. Northern capital
lists are not going to help us to build up
competition to themselves by advanc-
ing the money. Our laws stand in the
way of getting financial help from
abroad. We are left to our fate, de-
pendent on the North for all that we
use. Their tariff robs US of millions OF
dollars and keeps us poor. They have
contrived law to prevent us from get
ting cheap foreign goods and keeping
us dependent on high-priced Northern
manufacturers. And we have contrived
supplemental law to prevent ourselves
from getting cheap foreign money, in
tensifying and perpetuating our de-
pendence on the North.
Such is the prospect before us. We
need railroads to develop the latent
wealth that nature has endowed us
with, and we need manufactures to
furnish employment to our people and
keep the money price of our crops at
home. But We may ask in vain for
railroads and for home manufactures
as long as the alien land law remains
among our statutes, disabling and i'm
poverishing us.
