SMALL BULLET WOUNDS.

The Deadly Effects of Modern Projectiles
Upon the Human Body.
The celebrated English surgeon, Pro-
fessor Victor Horslcy, read a very in
teresting paper before the Royal insti-
tuition on the effect of modern small
projectiles. In the course of his remarks
ne said: "Some people seem to think
that a small bullet at a very high speed
will pierce the tissues of the body with
out doing much general damage. This,
however, is erroneous. The bullet hur-
ries forward with it particles of the
substance through which it is passing,
and thus practically becomes a larger
projectile. If bullet be fired through
a book, it cuts out disks of increasing
diameter as it traverses the pages
Hence too it is plain that the greater
the sectional area the greater the dam
age. As to the heating of the bullet, it
has certainly been much exaggerated,
and its effects, if indeed it has any,
may be safely neglected.
1.-THE physical constitution of body
has a most important bearing upon the
behavior Of bullet entering it, Why
does bullet of certain size and travel
ing at certain rate simply pcrforate
some substances, such as wood or iron,
while in others, such as clay, brain,
ETC., it exercises a bursting ana disrup'
tive action? The answer is quite sim
pie; the destructive effects vary direct
ly as the viscosity of the body.
"This was established by some remark
able researches on the effects of bullets
on soft tissues made by Huguier after
he had observed the results of the
wounds inflicted in the fighting in Paris
in 1S4S. He suggested, from observa
tions made on certain dead organs, sucE
as lungs, that the reason of the grea'
lateral disturbance was that the tissue!
contained water in large quantity, ant
that the energy of the moving projec
tile being impaired to the particles Of
water caused the dispersion of these il
a hydro dynamic fashion.
"This suggestion was shown to be cor
rect by Kocher in 1S74-6. If shot bt
fred through two tin canisters of equa
size, the one full of dry lint and thu
other of wet. it will simply perforatC
the former, but cause the latter to burs
explosively. In the same way shots free
into dough have more or less disruptiv'
effect, according to the percentage O.
water in the dough, and in general th'
more fluid the substance the greater th'
destruction.
"Now, in life the brain is more O
less fluid body, though in state Of rigo
mortis it is practically solid, owing
to coagulation Of the blood and proto
plasm. Hence a shot fred into tn
skull nust have a disruptive effect ant
tend to burst it.. "

The Photograph of the Future.

ga photograph that flatters will soon
be thing of the past" said q photog-
rapher the other day. "It will be i'm
possible to make our faces appear to the
most advantage by clever pose, for
the latest innovation in photography,
the multiphotograph, which is destined
to become the Photographic portrait of
the future, will reveal all our defects
and crudities The great study which
young women give their faces, to find
out in which position-side, three-quar-
ter or full face-they lbok the best,
will all be put to naught, for the multi
photograph will take them in all these
positions and others as well
'"The process makes it possible to OBJ
tain q perfect likeness of person, as
one is able to see the face and head in
all possible positions and can thus get
all the characteristics. This new effect
is obtained by mirrors being placed at
certain angles. When person stands
in front Of tho glasses, his likeness is
reflected from 6 to 12 times, according
to the arrangement of the mirrors, each
image being in a different position, SO
that the same effect is obtained that
would be secured if you were to walk
around person, viewing him from all
sides and points.
"The operator photographs the SUBJ
ject and the reflections in the mirrors
The result is the multiphotograph. I
think it is destined to become the photo
graph Of the future, as it is the only
thing that will give you q likeness of a
person as seen from all sides. Art in
this case must succumb to nature, and
the instruction that is too frequently
given the photographer, Make me as
pretty as you can, will have to be done
away with. "-Pittsburg Dispatch

LIFE AND LOVE.

Let Us live while the heartis lightest,
Let us love while the heart is strong,
And laugh while the day is brightest
And quicken the morn with song.
Let us mourn for no joy untasted,
Let US envy no bliss gone by.
The pleasure ungrasped is wasted.
Tomorrow we die, we die!
Let us SQUAT from the crystal showing
The wine on the beaded rim.
Let US gather the fruitage glowing
Full ripe on the bending limb.
Tomorrow the bowl is shattered,
Ere ever the shards be dry
The fruit is withered and scattered.
Tomorrow we die, we die!
Today is for love and kisses,
With life at its golden prime.
A century's wealth of blisses
We reap in a moments time.
The heart keeps time to the measure,
While the harp of love rings high.
Today is for love and pleasure.
Tomorrow we die, we die!

CORRESPONDENCE.
Mr.. Davies Says He Did Not
Want to be a Delegate.

Mr.. EDITOR: In your issue of
June 4th you state that | had re-
quested the Provisional Govern
ment to appoint me as its repre-
sentative to the international con-
ference to be held at Ottawa.
Will you be good enough to cor
rect this statement, inasmuch as
the conference at Ottawa was not
international but inter-colonial :;
and there was no possibility that
the Hawaiian Government, whe-
ther monarchical, provisional or
republican should have been in
vited to send a representative
there.
1t seemed eminently proper that
the Honolulu Chamber of Com
merce should take the opportunity
of presenting the claims of Ha-
waiian trade in the Pacific Ocean,
and that the Hawaiian Govern
ment should afford any informa-
ton bearing or that trade.
The Government and the Cham
Der acted in accordance with this
principle; and, in doing so, l can
not admit that they violated poll
teal prosperity.
Possibly you, sir, do not ap-
prove of the choice Of myself as
delegate by the Chamber of Com
merce, bat such disapproval would
| am confident, not induce you to
leave uncOntradicted the inbound
ed statement into which you were
unwittingly betrayed.

ITO answer shat question would be
an assumption of superior kuowl
edge, akin to prescience," was the
reply. Hawaii Is now an independ

this though: had the Hawaiian crises
