AuSNIdlld, <AfbnS.'
Mrs. Yates the Mayor Of Onehunga,
in New Zealand. is troubled apparently
with one or two unruly councillors, and
has some difficulty in keeping her team
in order At recent meeting, reported
I'm the New Zealand Herald. the proceed
ings are described as lively" The ques-
ton under discussion was an outbreak
Of typhoid-fever in the borough. At an
early stage In the discussion Mr.. Tapp
expressed the opinion that certain CORE
spondence had been kept back.
The Mayor. with much frmneSs, said;
81 insist upon an apology from YOU Mt
Tapp, for making that remark, and shall
adopt n similar course with any other
councillor SO expressing himself"
Mr. Tapp denied accusing her worship
OF suppressing correspondence. He must
have been misunderstood.
The Mayor: | won't allow any coun-
cilor to insinuate that ! have kept back
correspondence.
Mr. 'Tapp: You quite misunderstood me-
Mrs. Mayor
Afterwards Mr.. Tapp insisted upon
speaking when he was ruled out Of order.
The Mayor said: Il am the person TO die
tate. not you"
Mr.. Tapp: Oh, no you're not
The Mayor: Don't answer me back.
Mr.. Jackson, having moved resolution.
entered into a lengthy dissertation on
sanitary matters In general. As Mrs.
Yates has made regulation that the
mover OF a resolution shall be allowed
only five minutes 10 Introduce 1t, she
drew attention to the fact that Mr.. Jack
son had spoken seven minutes. Mr.. jack
son laughed. and said the Council had no
power TO make such an absurd regula-
ton, and I'm any case 1t did not apply TO
any one replying. lie would insist upon
his right Of saying what he had to say
and did not intend being talked down.
The Mayor: Mr.. Jackson, are you defy
ing my ruling?
Mr. Jackson: Yes. In this matter.
Tha Mayor: Then | order you down.
Mr.. Jackson said he would not be gag

The Mayor: Then I rule you out or
order. and II you don't obey, we might as
we'll dissolve.
Mr.. Jackson: Well shall certainly not
obey you You yourself have wasted most
OF the seven minutes and must not inter-
rupt me.
The Mayor: You have rambled away
from the subject
Mr. Jackson: II did you forced me.
At this point the pickering ceased and
the business proceeded In quietneSs

William Hennessy, of engine IS, had a
leg broken and three other fremen were
slightly injuerd.
At4 o'clock, an hour before the fire
was discovered, the watchman made
| his rounds OF the building, accompanied
by one Of the managers Of the factory,
Mr.. Howard. The latter had been out
Of the city for some time on business
for the firm, aud wished to make an in
! spection OF the premises before the
wOrkmen came on duty. When the
fire was discovered il had made consid-
cradle progress. The building is six
stories Ia height, aud extends through
from Twenty street to Twenty
third, whore it Occupies the Numbers
1873 aud 1875. On the ground floor the
building extends through without a
break, but above that there is well
hole which leaves a space of % feet be-
tween two buildings directly in the
center OF the block. When the dremen
responded the flames were bursting
through the three upper floors OF the
I
Twenty fourth street side, aud did not
cross the we'll opening to the Twenty
third street building.
The flames must have started in the
fifth floor where the chandelier arms
are made. There is a number OF bufing
machines On this aoor, and il may have
been a smouldering spark from one Of
these that caused the outbreak. Except
the second floor, which Is occupied by
the furniture manufacturers, ii. r.
Horner q Co., the Cassidy Company &C.
cupies the whole building.
Chief Breslin was on the fourth floor
directing the movements Of his men,
when the two upper floors gave way.
There was a beaVywater tank on the
roof and the flame having weakened its
supports, 10 came tum Ollng down, carry
ing with It the fifth fleor. The whole
mass Of blazing debris fell on the fre-
men, pinnng Bleslin and Rooney under
the girderS. The other men were near
the head Of the stairs, and with the
first cracking Of the tlmbers FASTENED
toward the stairs. They reached
them in safety, but the stairs
fell as they were hurrying down and the
men fell in a heap on the third floor,
Assistant Foreman Hennessy's right leg
was broken and Fireman Arnman was
also injured. Their companions dragged
them 20 a place of safety. Tnen an
heroic effort was made TO rescue Resin
and Rooney The flames were sept
from attacking the bodies of the men,
but they could not be reached by their
comrades. The smoke within the build
ing was sufTocatiug. and the danger Of
another fall from the upper floors was
so great that il was not deemed predent
to expose the wouldbe Tescuers TO
death.

AnoIsnt Amerlcan Trepanning.

The Muniz collection OF skulls now In
possession of the Bureau Of American
Ethnology exhibits many specimens Of
ante-mortem trspanning far superior
10 ANYTHING else before observed among
other aborigines,of the New World. In
some instances the incisions are narrow,
long and straight, usually at right an
giles. The cutting might have been
made with an arrowpoiEt held vertl-
cally and drawn back ward and forward,
making taper incision. In other In
stances the direction OF the emitting was
completely changed so as 10 saw 40
eiiptical piece out OF the skull, the
rough tool marks afterwards scraped
smooth. Yet again, in other examples
the entire process appears TO have been
effected by scraping, the aperture being
circular. IL Is evident, however. that
once in a while the operations were post
norton, as not even an aboriginal Of
low grade sensitiveness could have as
many as twenty disks cut out OF his
skull and live through the ordeal.
What became of the disks is not known;
they may have served either as
trophies or as charms. One OF the
skulls. doubtless that Of young wo-
man, had been subjected to successive
operations TO relieve epilepsy or like
trouble, and at last there was large
opening-four inches long by an inch
wide. The hole was covered by sill
yer plate, and the plate was found in
the mummy case with the remains. II
is not denied that the the operations
NAV often have been dictated by de-
sire for the expulsion Of evil spirits, but
there are all the indications that in
telligent surgery presided over attempts
to remedy crsnial fractures and cure
or alleviate diseases of the brain.
