peculiar manner last night In Evanston.

The two men were delivering ice at
the point where this wire was left, and
while Anderson was going into the yard,
Pierce sat down on the fence to rest.
His hands and clothing were wet and
the instant be touched the fence he foil
across it dead.
Anderson went 10 his assistance and
in attempting to lift the body from the
fence, formed a circuit within himself
and was rendered unconscious.

on the sidewalk and went to look at
them. She touched the wire with her
hand and was soon lying on the side

Hart child will recover, although they
are in a very serious condition. Hun
dreds of people had been passing within
a few feet of the dangerous place dur

The truth is that he did not speak upon

tne FORMER saved az MANY Lives As the
Latter Destroyed. ~
Medical Journal
Sir Joseph Lister. says Tho PrdcI,
toner, has probably been the means Of
saving as many lives as Napoleon's am
bition destroyed, and his work, unlike
that Of the master of "hig battalions,"
will live after him In silent but ever
active fertility of good. "Wo should"
our contemporary adds, perhaps DO
thankful that Sir Joseph Lister has been
honOrod at all, for men like him have
too often in the worlds history been
ignored or even prosecuted. But what,
after all, is the recognition he has re-
ceived from the State compared with
what would have been his had he dis
played but an infinitesimal portion of
the same capacity in soldering or in
politics Till the mental vision of the
public is corrected by better appreela-
ton Of the realities of things, its
moral perspective will be all wrong. II
is certain, however, that the time will
come when the physician will be held
in greater honor than the fighting man."
II will be long before the world prozI
fcrs the silent victories of science to thet
dramatic deeds of the great war-lords.
There is, in fact, nothing in the dis
covery and application of antisepsis and
asepsis that causes the pulse to beat
faster and the mind to glow with excite
ment and enthusiasm The achieve
ments of Harvey, of Jenner, of Lister
are historic and give these men undying
fame, but they do not appeal to the
grand passions of men, nor delight their
artistic sense. Hence they will always
remain little in the background. As a
benefactor of humanity, Lister, and
many other men barely known to the
world ,quite outrank the great Napoleon,
but they will never have anything like
the present Napoleonic revival, After
all, Napoleon was cast in . giant mould;
and he is admired for his colossal work
and his extraordinary mind, though his
work was ono of blood and destruction.
