SICK DRAFT HORSES.
Treatment In Use in the New York Fire
Department..

Treatment in Use in the New York Fire
Department..
Bran stands decidedly foremost as
the food most generally in use for the
invalid horse. 1t acts as a laxative, is
frequently tempting to the appetite,
and easy of digestion. There is no
part of the general treatment more
universal than offering this substance
as a change of food. Does the horse
show slight symptoms of cold or fever,
a warm bran mash is convenient plan
of steaming, and constantly of soothing
the irritable mucous mem branes of the
air passages; it is a su Dstitute for the
more stimulating diet he is accustomed
to, and gently promotes the activity of
the digestive apparatus: it is also a
convenient medium for the giving of
certain simple remedies. When it is
necessary to administer purgative
medicine, bran mash or two renders
the bowels more susceptible of it's
action, and smaller drug is therefore
required to produce the desired effect.
Bran mashes may be given hot or cold
cold are, perhaps, quite as grateful
to the horse-but the nibbling of the
hot mash in catarrhal affections is par
ticularly beneficial from. the necessary
imitation of the steam. Of all the
roots with which horses are tempted,
the carrot, as rule, is the favorite,
and, perhaps, the most beneficial. 1t
is said to be somewhat diuretic in its
effect, and to exercise a salubrious in
fuence on the skin. Certain it is that
sick horse may be coaxed into eating
carrot when disinclined to partake of
other nourishment, with the greatest
beneficial results. For the ailing horse
carrots are most valuable as an article
of diet, and few may be given with
advantage to horse in healthy con-
dition.
Oatmeal is extremely nutritious, and
as a food for the convalescent horse is
most valuable: the bruising process the
grain has undergone breaks the husk
and renders it more easily acted upon
by the digestive organs. 1t is usually
given in the form of a Cruel and in
that form it is one of the most essen
tial articles of diet for the inirmary.
Linseed is decidedly to be included in
the sich-diet roll. 1t is nutritious, and
from its oleaginous nature soothing to
the frequently irritable mucous mem
brane of the alimentary canal, and
hence is particularly to be recon-
mended in the treatment of sore
threats. Nor is its bland effect local
only: its more general influence is par
ticulariy observable in affections of the
kldneys.-N. Y. Tribune.

AIR DOES NOT KILL.
The Wind Preceding a Shot Found to Be
Harmless.

The Wind Preceding Shot Found to Be
Harmless.
The old belief that projectiles some
times kill men in battle without hitting
them must be abandoned in view of re-
cent scientific experiments. 1t was for
merly supposed that the air compressed
and driven before the projectile, and
technically called ''the wind of the
shot," was capable of striking fatal
blow, and even army surgeons have as
scented to this theory.
But, says Youths Companion, ex-
periments have shown that the air
driven by projectile, while capable of
being instantaneously photographed in
the form of a wave, does not possess
sufficient energy to produce any de-
structive effect.
Another theory which recent investi-
cations have overturned is that the ex-
plosive effect sometimes exhibited by
bullets is due to compressed air driven
into the wound %N
Experience shows that the appear
ance of explosion arises from the na-
ture of the substance penetrated by the
bullet. If this substance is plastic or
watery, the impulse of,'the proiectile is
distributed laterally in all directions
among its particles, and they are driven
asunder.
Such an effect has been noticed in
battle when bullets have entered the
brain, and accusations OF using explo-
sive projectiles, contrary to the comfy
OF nations, have been based upon them.
By firing bullets into wet dough, every
indication of an explosion has been pro-
duced. although the same bullets, fred
with identical velocity into solid sub
stances like bone, made only, round,
clean-cut holes.

new REGULATIONS.
Rules for the Management of
the New Jail.
Short-Tfme Prisoners Declared
From Official Opportunities
and EmoIumentS.

Since taking possession of the new
Jail the county prisoners have evolved a
new set of rules for the good conduct
of the institution.
They are not quite SO rigid as the old
ones, some of which were rendered
obsolete and useless by the new and
more secure arrangement. One can
not avoid remarking that if the prison
ers had observed similar rules outside
the Jail they would have been honored
mem beTs of society. The following are
the new regulations:
No. /. All persons confined in this
Jail must abide by the rules.
No. 2. Each person upon entering
this Jail shall take bath and boil his
clothes. This must be done weekly by
the inmates.
No. 8. There shall be no theft or de
struction of jail property.
No. f. There shall be no fighting
among the inmates nor throwing OBJ
iects at each other.
No. s. All persons shall keep a good
distance from the door while inmates
are in conversation with lawyers or
visitors and there shall be no rompIng
or playing while ouch visitors are there.
No. 6. There shall be no talking or
calling through the windows to persons
on the outside nor any communication
with them whatever.
No. Z. Al. persons shall duly respect
the Sunday service. Card playing
must stop during such time.
No. g. Due respect shall be shown
for the court inside, which all shall at
tend. Severe penalties shall be in
flcted for contempt.
No. 9. The inmates shall elect the
Judge and sheriff on the 28th of each
second month. The judge shall ap
point the interpreter. Should the sher-
if resign the Judge shall appoint his
successor for the unexpired term.
Short term men shall not hold Office.
No. 10. Each person shall work one
day in his turn at sweeping and clean
ing up and each person on entering the
Jail shall perform four days labor on
the floor after which he shall take his
turn with the rest.
No. IL. Each person using the bath
shall clean the same Immediately after
using.
No. II. No one shall enter the cell OF
another without permission.
No. 10. There shall be no nuisance
committed in any part of the Jail what
ever, such as splitting on floors or in
corners or wilfully throwing refuse mat
ter on the floor in any part of the jail.
No. IA. 1t shall be the duty of the
sheriff to see that each of the inmates
take his turn at sweeping and cleaning
up the jail, also to enforce the rules.
No. Is. All persons convicted of
disobeying these rules shall be punish
ed by being locked up in cell and put
on diet of bread and water for from
one to four days or the same number OF
days at labor on the floor or the person
or persons found guilty by the court of
breaking any of the above rules may
also be punished by receiving from one
to fifty whacks. This to be at the dis
cretion of the court.
Jose Sortilon Is the sheriff and rules
both over the prisoners and the China
men who bring the food to the prison
ers. There has been an unanswered
clamor for more generous supply OF
salt. Yesterday Sortillon took China
