ONLY Al SCRATCH NEEDED.
The Frequency OF Blood Poisoning Among
the Meat Packers.

Ln8 AAN&A EWrAGEbss So
.tIt would surprise you to know" " re-.
Gently remarked an officer of one OF our
large packing houses, "how frequent
cases of blood poisoning are among our
employees, and the cause in most of
these instances would doub btless surprise
you more. A scratch ON the hand from
hone Of q calf's head or pigs foot
often disables man for week, and.
strangely enough, in almost every case
that has come under my notice the
scratch has been SO slight as to be al
most imperceptible. 2@ l
1.-THE first intimation the man has of
his injury is swelling of the forearm,
accompanied by smarting pain. Both
swelling and pain generally extend to
the shoulder. under which large lung
sometimes forms. Even after the pres
ence of the scratch has been i'm this
manner demonstrated it is often impos-
sible to detect it. 1t is usually caused.
in the case Of the calf's head, by the
sharp edge ON the bone OF the neck, due
to the carelessness of the butcher who
sewers the head from the carcass III he
does his work well and his cleaver has
severed the joint perfectly, oil is well,
for there is no sharp edge to cut, but il
he has missed the joint by even hairs
breadth, which happens in Ave cases out
Of ten. there is an edge on the bone that
will probably work mischief. a.
''Of course none of these cases has
ever resulted seriously, as prompt meas.
ures are always taken and as we always
insist that man so injured immediate
ly consult a physician. This rule w
never vary, for we feel bound to retain
a man on the pay roll while suffering
from such an accident, even though BIZ
be untitled for work, and the unskillfu
treatment of an apothecary, ON which
many of them would like to rely, or tbs
even less satisfactory methods of home
surgery would only prolong the term ot
idleness. New York Sum.

The Gold Dollar Had No Utility, While TIT
Three Cent Piece Served Purpose.

The Gold Dollar Had No Utility, While the
Three Cent Piece Served Purpose.
To one who has not given the subject
thought it would seem that the most
useless coins ever issued by the United
States were the silver cent pieces.
They were small, as thin as sheet oi
MANILA paper, and before they finally
disappeared from circulation they came
to be regarded as nuisances.
Although there is much to be SAID
against the annoying little coins, they
were, as matter OF fact, of far greater
utility, as far ais circulation is concern
ed, than another coin This is the golt
dollar, which, experts at the subtreas
ury say, has never served any usefu
purpose. Said Maurice Muhleman, cash
ier of the subtreasury, recently:
From the mutilated condition of tht
gold dollars sent here for redemption i
lis positively shown that the public dt
not regard them as coins. Their only
use appears TO be for bangles, necklaces
watch charms, scarfpins and the like
It is doubtful If one in thousand eve
really passed in circulation. s~
with the cent silver piece it wa.
different When first coined, the coun
try had nothing in the shape of coli
between the huge copper cents and hal
cents and the silver half dime. Tht
small coil was hailed as a blessing an,
became popular at, once. There was al
excellent reason for its issue also.
Strange as it may seem, it was no
provided for by coinage act, but by al
act revising the postal rates. This Law
lowered the cost for transmitting th'
unit Of weight for letters from to
cents It was deemed advisable by con
gress thereupon to issue b coin of CORE
spending denomination. The coin wa
of great utility and circulated freely nm
til the advent OF the nickel New

- Results Rs COmpared With Those
Through the Use Of Melting Toe.
The superiority Of refrigeration OBJ
tained by mechanical processes, as com
pared with that obtained by melting ice
appears in the facts that by it more in
tense cold may be secured; that any de-
aired degree Of cold may be maintained
with perfect uniformity; that drier
atmosphere is secured in the refrigerat-
ing box or room; that the Inconvenience
CT frequently replenishing the Ice bun
kers and the slop and dirt attendant upon
this work are avoided; that the annoy
ing uncertainty of ice supply and varia-
bility in its price are avoided; that
space in the rooms or boxes to be cooled
IL economical by substitution of coil
OF pipe on walls of ceiling for the bulky
ice bunker, and that this refrigeration
can be employed for many purposes and
places where Ice cannot be used at ALL
Added to all this is the fact, of para
mount Importance, that where much
refrigeration is required the cost of a
machine and its operation is far less
than the cost of ice sufficient to do an
equal amount Of work
These advantages have proved SO great
IN practice that every brewery, packing
house, cold storage warehouse or other
establishment requiring large amount
OF refrigeration contains its individual
refrigerating plant Where consumption
amounts to ten tons or more of ice daily
the question of economy will be almost
invariably decided in favor Of the ma
chine. If less than ten tons be required,
the cost of a machine and its operation
may exceed the cost Of ice sufficient to
do similar amount of work. In many
cases the superior quality of the refrig.
Grafton obtained, its cleanliness. relia-
bility and convenience or the require
ment Of more intense cold than ice will
produce secures the adoption Of the ma
chine. Therefore small machines are
frequently found on shipboard, in no.
tells and apartment houses and i'm many
manufactures, but most of the ice gath
cred from rivers and lakes or made In
factories is not consumed by the few
who require large quantities, but by the
many, who seyerally require less than
ten tons day.
The effort to bring this superior re-
frigeration within the reach Of small
consumers has taken two directions
the production of small and inexpensive
automatic machines and system ot
supply of the refrigerant from centra
stations. The first has failed hitherto
because the balance of constantly vary
ing pressures, temperatures, strength o
solution, etc, is too complex matte
for purely automatic regulation. With
out constant skilled attention the ma
chimes work unsatisfactory, while tn
relatively high cost of plant, fuel ant
cooling water in operating ON small
scale defeats economy. Chicago Times

but widows and spinsters. being house

they do. When an election takes place

voters are escorted In carriages by the

CHINESE WERE NERVOUS.
They Could Not Stand the Joking
Of the Japanese.

The Chinese were afraid that in
dignitiss would be offered them by
the Japanese who marched Satur-
day morning. On one side some
Eski was imbibed and on the other
some samsho was taken aboard.
Then there was talk. Nothing
came Of it. The Japanese, who
lo7e fun, kept up their joking.
Some Of the Chinese became rat
tied. They are a serious people.
i meeting Of their protective
union was called. It was decided
to stand no foolishneas." They
declared they would resist any at
tack Of any sort made by the cele-
braats. Public notice was sent
out The police department was
notified and took the necessary
precautions. There were no dis
turbances.
It was reported that 400 Chinese
we're under arms. For a long time
1t has been understood that the
Chinese were pretty well fixed for

ONE Of the proposed amendments
10 the Constitution Of the State OF
New York, sbolishes prison labor,
when it completes with private labor.
No solution is suggested of the very
question OF employing
their prisoners, in order TO keep them
in 5 wholesome condition. The labor
unions have insisted that this form Of
industry should not compete with
other labor, and the politicians yield
TO it. The significant fset is, that the
labor unions will not trust the legis-
lzture TO regulate the matter, but in
tend 10 settle the question by the
law. What, then, will
be done with the prison labor II was
once proposed thst all articles, made
by prisoners, should De sent to for
eigu markets, without regard to price,
but the objection was made that the
articles would be imperfect, because
the prisoners were constantly chang
ing. The problem is not solved.
