Prof. Wilder. Of Cornell, suggests that
chloroform should be used freely to relieve
the victims in railway accidents, and de-
sciares that every railway passenger car
should be equipped with a tin can of chloro-
form. that can be easily opened with a
knife, and the whole placed in a box lined
with absorbent cotton In case of n dis
aster one or two tablespoonful upon a
handkerchief held near the 1ostri.s would
lessen senSibility very soon. Professor
Wilder says that he has gone armed fer
several years with a two-ounce bottle of
chlorofCrn slowed away in his pistol pocket
and while it has not yet been needed in a
railway wreck it has often come into use
for the speedy relief of inward pain The
professor has also found his novel wsapCn
very enicacioCs when he has been attack ed
oy ferocious dogs; in such instances the
chloroform emptied upon the CANNES nos
trlis has caused the animal to cease all
Efforts at assault. Probably the best part
OF the professors suggestion is that where
ne lntirnates that the prompt and potent
chioroform might replace the dangerous
policeman's club in the treatment of recall
citrant prisoners Perhaps it would be wen
for Major Moore to look into this matter
While washington policemen are known to
De Kind almost to the point of affectionata
tenderness in their treatment of those who
resist their authority, there have nevert;le-
less, been unfortunate instances where
their batons have come into accidental but
none the less forcible contact with the
heads OF offenders. Armed with a bottle of
chloroform. however the policeman would
be a dispenser of peace in every sense of
the word. Instead OF balaboring a physic-
aHy-objecting prisoner over his devoted
head. all an officer would have to do would
be to stick his anesthetic holder under the
others nose. and white-winged calm would
hover DER the scene and smile it's sweetest.
So let the crusade in behalf of chloroform
begin In earnest. Let all the implements
with which the guardians Of the law are
now equipped to uphold their authority il
need be. with physical strength be banished
forever Think, for instance, how much
more potent factor a carboy Of chloro-
form would be In quelling a disturbance In
the House OF Representatives than the
mace OF the Sergeant-at-Arms. The pos
sibilities opened in this connection are al
most overwhelming, and 1t would not be a
bad idea for the two houses of Congress- TO
authorize their smelling committees to in
vestigate the subject and report upon 1t at
the earliest possible date.
